Fad Railway Management.

To the Editor of The EVENING STAR:
sometime in May last the superintendent of
the W., .. and W. R.R. issued Il table of round
trip rates to points on that road. 1t now tram
spires that these rates apply between Washing
ton and the points named but not between sta
tions on the road and Washington. The patrons
of the road who live on the line of it regard this
as an unjust and absurd discrimination. 1t is
supposed that the superintendent considers
that people living in the country are obliged to
go to the city. and that he can charge them
what he pielses, but than dweliers in town will
not come to the country withOu: inducements
are offered. He will find, however, that this in
Justice will not operate TO his advantage. The
passengers between Washington and Falls
Church complain also that the company do not
run sufficient cars TO give everyone II seat.
Many are Obliged TO stand. H. L. a.

The Commencement!

The Exercises of the graduating class
of the jackson High School at Jones
Hall, on last Thursday night were the
most largely attended of any entertain
ment held in this place for long time
The stage was finely decorated, a perfect
forest of house plants being arranged at
the sides. The class motto, Stroke by
lStroke" hung over the front of the stage.
Every inch of space within the hall was
packed with people, and scores went
away, unable to even see into the room.
The exercises began with singing "Coro-
nation" followed with prayer by Rev.
c. Tedford. Then followed Salutatory,
by Miss Emma B. Henson. Next, an
oration, "The Cost of Victory" by Miss
Patsie E. Poor. Next, essay, "Earth's
Battles" by Jennie A. Evans. Essay,
sour Tolls and Rewards" Mary C. Poor
Duet, Maggie Evans and Patsie e. Poor

tette, by T. A. Jones and party. Presen-
tation of Diplomas by Prof. J. E. Kinni-
son. Benediction by Rev. F. S. Davis.
The graduates all acquitted themselves
in splendid style. 1t would be useless to
attempt to speak of individuals where all
did so well. As rule the ladies spoke
clearly and distinctly, so as to be easily
heard by the vast throng of people in the
Hall, and the oration of Mr.. Jones was a
masterpiece. The graduates were all
dressed with exquisite taste. Elegant
floral tributes were bestowed upon each.
This was great evening for the Jackson
Schools, and these graduates persons of
whom jackson may feel justly proud.

SAD ACCIDENT !
BY WHICH AN OLD LADY WILL BE A GRIP
PIE FOR THE REST OF HER LIFE.

On last Thursday Mrs. Delay, wife of
our old friend Green Delay, and mother
of Thomas Delay, of this place, met with
an accident which is very serious, consid
ering all the circumstances. She resides
several miles in the country, and was go
ing home in an express wagon. When
near the Buchanan place, this side of her
own home, she attempted to get out of
the express wagon, when she fell, break
ing her leg in terrible manner. A physi-
clan from town was summoned, and pro-
nounced it one of the most severe frac-
lures he had seen for some time. 1t is a
hard matter for an old person to entirely
