dime ?" asked boy OF a gruff-looking
man.
"Why should give you dime? '
"To get something TO eat with"
"Why should care whether you eat
or not? It's none OF my business"
Shortly afterward, as the man was
running to catch a car, his plug hat
blew off and went rolling at rapid
rate.
"Please stop that hat" he shouted TO
q boy.
"Why should stop your hat?' the
boy replied. at is none OF my bust

Miss Davis.

Last night the Association of the Army of
Northern Virginia held it's annual meeting
in the hall of the House of Delegates, in
Richmond. Miss Davis was present, and
on motion of General Jubal Early, was
unanimously elected member of the asso.
citation. After this had been carried, amid
cheers, it was moved that Miss Davis be
presented with a badge OF membership,
which had been prepared, aud Gen. VIM. B.
Iallaferro was chosen to make the presen-
tation speech, after which Miss Davis re.
ceived the badge with graceful bow. 1t is
solid gold representation Of the Confeder-
ate battle flag. The ceremony was made
the more impressive by the feeling on the
part of those present that the young lady's
presence 10 Richmond had been a bar to
Mrs. Cleveiand's presence. A prominent
Firginian said: eff it be true that Mrs.
Cleveland did not come because we had de.
signed that she should receive with Jeffer.
son Davs's daughter, we cannot but think
this most ungracious, ungallant act. 1t
is petty warfare to strike the aged Confed-
crate leader through his tender young
daughter

The WEST POINT TERMINAL COMPANY

"A 4No" i VI ulsptlCu say
Much interest is manifested in Wall
street in regard to the outcome of the diff.
culties in the Richmond and West Point
Terminal Company, the stock of which ad-
vanced i per cent. The rival interests in
Richmond and Danville and Richmond and
West Point are said to be wide apart. The
proposition made by the Terminal people to
exchange two shares of their stock for one
of +. & D. has. it is said, been refused by
the latter. 1t is now proposed by the Ter
minal Company to issue collateral trust
bond for about So 500, 900, with which they
would take up S2,400,000 of the collateral
trust notes and the $500, 900 floating debt.
The balance would be used as bonus 10
placing the bond, which would bear six per
cent. Richmond and Danville people say
that This bond could not be marketed with
out their guarantee, aud this, it is under
stood, the Terminal Company cannot get.
The Richmond and Danvile people refuse
to make proposition, but intimate that
they are willing to take the property of the
Terminal Company, put it in good order
and operate it, and turn over tho net earn
ngs to the Terminal stockholders. If this
is not satisfactory some of the Richmond and
Danvile neoIle express willingness to
sever their relations with the Terminal
Company and turn over the property. The
Terminal Company owes Richmond and
Dan7ile 100000 of its floating debt"

ALEX ANDRIA
FRIDAY EVENING. OCTOBER %.

IT WAS stated in the GAZETTEs Wash
ington correspondence of yesterdays date
that almost the only people in Washington
who approved Of the Presidents refusal to
take his wife to the Governors house, in Rich.
,nond, where Miss Davis was staying, were
few Southern democratic Office holders, who
said "he should not be at all mixed up with
the Davises, az there Wss great prejudice
against them Throughout the entire North"
Leaving out of view, the bad taste CT South
ern men holding Office under the President
manifested by such an expression, if what
they sev about the prejudice against the
Davises DO true, the war is not yet over,
though the clash of arms ceased more than
q quarter of a century ago. Every we'll in.
formed American knows that Mr.. Davis is
no more TO blame for the war between the
States than the youngest voter in all the
South at the time the conflict commenced,
Or than the most stupid private in all the
awk wand squads of the Confederate army,
aud that he attempted to avoid war and
wsa forced to accept the presidency OF the
Cnnlederacy. If, therefore, the prejud!ces
against Mr.. Davis 10 the North be as strong
as the Southern Office holders referred to
say it $50 strong that it induces Inc ma
tional President to withdraw the acceptance
OF an Invitation for his wife to visit house
simply because Mr.. Davis daughter is a guest
there, and receives the approval ofthat with
drawal by the people ofthat section, it's only
natural to suppose that the Davses are not
its only objects. but that it attaches itself to
all other OK Confederates and their children
in other words, that the people Of the
North have q strong prejudice against those
Of the South, and regard them with feelings
Of antipathy, rather than ofiove and friend
ship which the people Of one section Of q
common country should entertain for those
of the other, and that Northern people are
still at war with those of the South. in tieart

AT THE opening Of the annual convention
Of the brotherhood Of locomotive engineers
Mr.. Arthur, the chief of that organization
said
That good labor organization is good
thing we main tain, but tt at heterogeneous
mass of men engaged in divers occupations
can combine Interests satisfactorily to form
all organization which shall serve all and
with equal Justice, we very much doubt
And If this could be done time has proved
satisfactorily to rs that we are sufficient un-
TO ourselves. What we are and what we
have accomplished is the result of long con
tinued, patient work, aud it behooves US to
be extremely cautious how we interest our
selves when there is nothing to gain, but
everything CLOSE. Not until there is moth
ing more to he doue for our brotherhood can
we afford 10 become interested in other
things foreign to cur order. We have taken
upon the adoption of our lnoitn, "sobrety,
truth, justice ard morality" strong stand
for right. Right alone, for itself and in
itself considered, stands upon broad basis
and is the only lasting foundation upon
which man can build"
IF all the chiefs Of all the other labor
organizations could think and talk as wisely
as Mr.. Arthur they and the organizations
to which thoy belong and eli the other la
boring people Of the country would get
along much better than they have been do
ing for the last year or two.
