In the course of the investigation going
on in Cincinnati the ballot box of Precinct
A., Tenth Ward. was opened and the
names of the candidates for Senators were
found scratched on twenty-four repubh-
can votes. In order to ascertain the facts
about these twenty -four scratch ed tickets
q reporter of the Cincinnati Commercial
Gazette interviewed the Judges of the
precinct. two republicans and one demo-
crat, and the clerks. one republican and
one democrat. All five of them told the
same story-namely: That there were
no'such tickets voted; that there were but
three or four ballots with scratched
name on them. and that TWEEN ty- tour tick
cts with the entire list OF Senatorial can,
didates scratched off could not have been
placed in the box without their knowledge.
The democratic Judge and clerk were even
more positive in their statements than the
republicans. Twenty-four votes were
necessary to save one OF the democratic
candidates for Senator when 200 bogus
votes in another precinct had been thrown

Origin of the Isabella, Catawba and
Concord Grapes.

OF the American varieties of cultivated
grapes the earliest to achieve any wide
spread popularity was the Isabella, which
was originated by Mrs. Isabella Gibbs. q
South Can DINA. in 1873 In 1923 chance
seeding, supposed to be of fox grape par.
entage, was discoved IN Maryland by Maj.
Album. of Georgetop, D. g., and by him
sent out as the Catawba. For more than
quarter CT century these two varieties
were the only ones that we're regarded as
being verify of cultivation generally. In
1853 IS, Mr.. Epbraim W. Bull, of Con-
coId, Mass, succeeded, succeeded, after "a
long series of experiments, IN obtaining
from the seeds of the Northern fox grape.
the Vitus 5a6rusca, an exceedingly promis.
ing black, or dark purple grape. which he
named Concord. The Concord was an
Improvement on the Isabella in that 1t ma
Jured its fruit with certainty and unifor-
nifty. points in which the latter was not
reliable, and in ad ltion. it was at least
ten days earlier. No variety of the grape
ever worked its way into popular favor
with greater rapidity than the Concord,
and even now, after the lapse of more
than thirty years, it still maintains to
some extent its position as the standard
of excellence for black grapes.

twelve years, testified that Tom is ''entire-

The Judge, in charging the jury, said
the case was an unusual one. There was

there was musical ability which very

Nothing City Council of Stanton III 1900
for services rendered the party in meeting
in joint debate Roger A. Pryor, who came
up to Staunton to speak In behalf OF the
Democratic party. Roger Pryor." con-
tinued Gen. Imboden, WAS, as ne Is now,
a great orator. and his appearance at
Stanton was anything but agreeable for
the Known othings. There was no one
willing to meet him in joint discussion,
and the leaders qs the Know y othing
party were at loa 20 know just What to
do. Finally they came to me and asked
il I would not take tilt with Pryor,
that they had asked several Know-Noth
ing speakers but none of them would con-
sent to meet him. I told them would
do it upon one condition. and that was
that they should notify all the young men
in the country round about to be at the
courthouse by O'Clock in the evening
and pack it so full that a Democrat
couldn't get in. This was done. and
about 8 o'clock Roger A. Pryor entered
the courthouse and walked up to the
stand without receiving a single cheer
After he took his seat entered, and the
boys shouted like they were going to
shake the roof off the house. They
cheered and cheered me, no matter what
I said; but Pryor. who made a grand
speech, didn't get any applause, and stop
ped before his time was up. His auditors
were as cold as an iceberg. but mine we're
filled with enthusiasm. The Known 9TH
ings, of course. carried the day, because
we had packed the courthouse; but the
Democrats didn't understand how we
managed to do it until a long time after

ing in the State Library, Gen. Roger A.
Pryor, who came down from New York
to visit relatives and friends, was chatting
with the Governor in another part Of the
Capitol. When told Gen. Imboden this

OF HIS LIFE.

I am told that John S. Mosby, the
guerilla general and ex-consul to Hong

for which he gets $500 night. This will
make SIS 600 for fifty lectures, or for fifty
utterances of one lecture, and it is by no

old Confederate friend of his to me, lis as
poor as church mouse and he will give

abroad. His son graduated with high
honors at the Virginia University this
year. and think he has other Children

can call his own.
John s. Mosby is slight. bent, blonde

more expression than boys marble. He

not know what fear is. He loves his
friends and hates his enemies, and he car
ries his fight to the death. lately heard
story from captain in the Union army
of a scene in which Mosby took part dur
| ing the war. A Union regiment had
driven him with small body of his men
into ten acre field. about which was q
high fence. They could see him plainly
within it, and they surrounded the field
and began to close in upon Mosby. They
wanted to capture him, as he had already
killed nearly half their regiment. They
closed In upon him slowly, his handful of
troops still firing. They had backed him
up close to fence. and they apparently
had him in their grasp, when he drove his
SPURS into his horse aud went over the
fence like fash, and as he did so, turned
| In the air upon his saddle aud shot SOL
der through the head with his revolver.
There are few such shots as Mosby, and
during the war he shot TO kill.
''At the close of the war Horace Gree
ley wanted Mosby hung. He denounced
/ him as guerilla and murderer, and pub
lished article after article calling upon the
President to hang him. Mosby fed to the
mountains, and he told me be intended to

Washington at the time. Mrs. Mosby
came here with sucking baby on one
arm and these papers Of Horace Greeley

and laid the papers before him. Grant
told her to 20 to her husband and to tell
him that he would protect him if he would
surrender; that he should go to the near
est station and give himself up and he
would protect his parole as much as he
| would that of Gen. Lee. Mrs. Mosby car
ried this news to John s. Mosby in the
mountains. He surrendered and Grant
protected him. Mosby never forgot it, and
when the campaign of 1872 came around.
in which Greeley was pitted against
Grant, Mosby stumped the State of Vir-
ginia for Grant. He carried Greeley's
papers around and told the people how
Grant had treated him. The result was

called the ''niece'' of Gen. Lee, though
