Married in n Printing Office.

In the office of the Rockbridge County
Neps, Lexington, Virginia, Friday last,
Mr.. James w. St. Clair, of Botetourt,
and Miss Mary E. Kelly were united in
marriage, the Rev. A. P. Boude, editor
of the Ners, being the officiating clergy
man. The Ners thus describes the
scene attending the wedding ceremon-
les: "The ceremony was one Of the most
interesting that we have witnessed for
many a day. The foreman stood, stick
in hand, his broad, benevolent face
wreathed In smiles Of congratulation;
the compositor sat perched upon high
stool at the case and cast his eyes over
his left shoulder as much rs to say
wish it was IL the pressman stood,
frisket in hand, amazed at the novel
scene, while the devil, with begrimed
face and sleeves rolled to his shoulders,
could scarcely repress a giggle."

Destructive Fires.-Last Thurs

Destructive FfreS.-Last Thurs-
day night about nine O'Clock the large
barn on the farm occupied by Mr.. c. e.
Getzendanner, and owned by his father,
Mr.. Daniel Getzendanner, was totally
destroyed by fire, including its valuable
contents, and q granary and its contents
near by. When the fire was discovered
it was too late to save anything in it,
and threshing machine, clover huller,
drill, self-binder, wagons, harness,
about ten tons Of hay, and much other
farm machinery and provender were
burned. The origin Of the fire is un-
known, but it is supposed to have been
set on fire. The barn and contents were
insured in the Peabody fire insurance
company of Wheeling for $500, and
the granary and contents for $500 in the
Jefferson County Mutual. All the in.
surance was placed by Messrs. Wash
ington & Alexander, of Charlestown.
In addition to this, Mr.. G. G. Getzen-
danner had an Insurance Of 81 600 on
the contents of the barn, which was
placed by Maj. Bristor, of Martinsburg.
The fire was plainly seen in Shepherds
town, and in Hagerstown the reflection
was 30 bright that an alarm was raised
and the fire companies called out. Five
hundred feet of hose was laid before it
was discovered that the fire was twenty
two miles away.
The two-story frame and weather
boarded tenant house on the farm be-
longing to the heirs Of the late Samuel
Beeler, about one mile and a-half west
of Sharpsburg, near the canal, was to-
tally destroyed by fire last Wednesday
night. The house was occupied by Mr..
VIM. H. Show, a laborer on the Chesa-
peake and Ohio Canal and about 1890 a.
m. his wife was aroused by the smoke.
She hastily awakened her husband and
the other members Of the family and
they escaped from the burning building
and saved few things, which were on
the lower floor. All the remainder OF
Mr.. Shows furniture was consumed and
the loss falls heavily upon him. The
origin Of the fire is unknown, but in
cendiarism is suspected to have caused

What VIC nre Thankful Fer.

" nat VIC nre Il nankI III or
Mr.. Newton Vanmeter last week left
for the editor lot of potatoes which are
about as large, we imagine, as potatoes
ever get in this neighborhooj. They
were most appropriately called Jumbo
potatoes. We have been eating them at
the rate Of one day. Thank you, Mr..
Vanmeter.
We hadn't got through with the above
until our friend Mr.. 8. F. Graves, OF
Washington county, sent us busbel
basket full of potatoes and turnips,
which, judging from their size must
have been grown in California. They
are whoppers, and, though we hate to
say it, we believe they beat the Jeffer-
son county potatoes just little. If Mrt
Graves has few dozen such as he sen .
us, his family is provided for for the
winter.

Most Of them opposed the appropriation

The Minstrel King.
From q late Paris letter.


The cattle, sheep, vegetable, and
cheese show at the Palais de l'Industrie
is great success. The day when Pre-
sident Grevy visited it a cheese mer-
chant cut off a piece Of Gruyere and
handed it to him on the point Of a
knife, asking him to taste it; but this
the President declined to do, although
he accepted the dealers card. If Mr..
GreVy was as anxious for popularity as
was Louis Philippe in his day he would
have accepted the Sweitzer-kase and
declared it delicious. The citizen
king used to sing the Marseil-
laise from the balcony of the
Tuileries whenever the PRONE
naders in the garden demanded it. lie
had nice voice, and was not ayersc to
proving that his monarchy was the in
carnation Of the best possible republic.
A crowd would gather under the bal
cony and begin to shout " Vire k
Roi :" When the King made his ap-
pearance the Republican song would be
called for, and during the first months
Of his reign he seldom refused it. This
good trait on his part became so well
known that the wits used to insist that
the Gavroches of the capital used to
lie in wait for parties Of tourists and
promise to show them the King for half
a franc.
