An Unfortunate Word.

The St. Louis Globe Democrat, COM

from point to point by mounted men,
says:
"The idea is picturesque one, but
it is at the same time anachronistic, as
it were. Some of the northern Demo-
cratic papers should withdraw their
gaze from Senator Sherman's bloody
shirt long enough to whisper to Gene
raj Lee that this is an era Of peace, and
the substitution Of pastoral notions for
recollections Of the war;"
Anachronistic, indeed The Globe
Democrat either has not kept up with
the Virginia procession, or is guilty Of
the most barefaced effrontery the poll.

the speeches OF FITz LEE with those

Therefore we are not surprised to hear

are we surprised to hear that General
MALONE is greatly annoyed at the APP

Of bis campaign funds to suit himself.
But we trust that his colored followers
will not cease to demand their fair
share Of the money. Their northern
friends contributed it, and they ought
certainly to have the spending OF more

cola STONES SUICIDE.

The Famous Bicyciist Takes Arsenic and
Dies in Great AGONY.
A special from st. Louis to the Phila
deIphia Times says: The announce
ment that Cola Z. Stone, the champion
amateur bicyclist, who died or Satur-
day, actually committed suicides made
and creates a general sensation in this
city. where he was universally known.
A couple of months ago Stone won the
one-hundred- road championship in
the " Century" race with the " Big
Four in Canada and held the road
record for that distances hours and
2G minutes. He was known the coun-
try over in bicycling circles. and had
taken part in tournaments held in Chi
cago, Philadelphia, New York, and
other cities. lie was magnificent spe.
cimen of manhood, being well formed
and standing over six feet in height.
An inquest was held to-day and DR..
Kershaw testified that on Saturday
evening he was called to attend Cola.
On entering the room Stone motioned
to his grandmother and father to leave
the room and then said
"Well, Doctor, | have taken arse
MIC"
When asked why he simply shrugged
his shoulders and said he wanted to
" shuttle off"
The Doctor at once proceeded with the
usual antidotes. His pulse was then
lGS and be was tossing around in great
agony. lie was asked by the Doctor if
he wanted to take any medicine to
counterfeit the poison and said:
Eyes; am disguised with the ar
senic route"
This, the Doctor thinks, was not
meant as a desire to return to life, but
simply as an expression Of wish to be
relieved Of the terrible pain that was
sapping his life. He was at this time
in the greatest agony, vomiting every
minute. When the Doctor called later,
at 10 o'clock, Stone was in an uncon-
scious condition, and never rallied.
DR.. Kershaw believes that the arsenic
was taken at breakfast on Saturday,
and that he had been suffering several
hours when he was called.
Professor C. ii. Stone, the father.
could not give any reason for the sui
eide beyond temporary insanity, the re-
suit of q fall received few days ago at
the Springfield (Mass.) tournament.
Cola's friends, however, think that his
rejection by young woman to whom
he was ardently attached is the true
cause.

CHARLES CITY s. NEW KENT,
Democratic Convention-Mr. ID. g. Tyler
Nominated for the House.
PROVIDENCE FORGE, Va,

hON VAsNbs 49, [
September 26, 1885.
A convention of the Democrats Of
Charles City and New Kent counties
was held here to-day to nominate can
didate for the House Of Delegates from
those two counties. Delegates present
From New Kent-Dr. K. Il. Fauntle-
roy, NJ. II. Barnes, Seaton Crump, John
IIaw. and DR.. Samuel Christian. From
Charles City-W. w. Petit, +. Will
cox, r. f. Davis, L. A. Marstin, Judge
Isaac II. Christian, and ID. e. Tyler.
Mr.. NJ. ii. Barnes was elected chair
man and W. W. Petit secretary. On
motion of DR.. Samuel Christian the
Convention proceeded to a nomination.
Mr.. Haw, OF New Kent, placed before
the Convention the name of Mr.. d. e..
Tyler, of Charles City county, and he
was unanimously declared to be the
choice of the Convention. Mr.. Haw
and DR.. Fauntleroy were appointed
committee to inform Mr.. Tyler Of his
nomination. Mr.. Tyler in neat and
impressive speech accepted the honor
conferred on him, and promised his
every effort for the success Of the
Democracy. lie called upon the un-
faltering Democrats Of New Kent and
Charles City to work ceaselessly from
now till sunset of the Sd Of November
for the election of Lee, Massey, Ayers,
and their legislative ticket.
A resolution denouncing the use Of
staked- and pound-nets in the James,
Chickahominy, and Pamunkey rivers
was ably advocated by Judge Isaac II.
Christian and Mr.. Tyler, and was
unanimously adopted.
There was large number of citi-
zens, both white and colored, present,
and great interest was manifested in
the proceedings of the Convention. Mr..
Tyler is one Of our best Hen, and will
doubtless make the canvass red-hot for
his opponent. Mr.. Nance.
