June Meeting The threatening rain
OF wednesday morning kept good many
persons away from the June exhibition by
the Agricultural Society of this county held
upon that day. Therefore the crowd was
not as large as was expected, though the
receipts were nearly If not fully us large as
usual upon similar occasions.
The main feature Of the exhibition, that
of the display of machinery, gave an I'M
cqualed interest, it being large and varied !;
the flowers had lair interest for the ladies',
aud the races were tolerably good, though
better have been seen on these grounds.
President w. T. Muncaster made a brief
and pleasant address to his hearers, and then
introduced Mr. Edward Stake, of Washing.
ton county, the orator of the day, who spoke
with much interest for his audience and I'M
limited knowledge of his subject
The chief exhibitors in the line of agricul
tural machinery were John A. Baker and
II. III. Heiskell, Jr, & Co., of Washington !;
+. L. Moore, G.. T. Dunlop and Cropey,
Boiler Il Champion, of Georgetown, d. @. !;
John III. Gassaway, c. w. Crawford, w. w.
Welsh and Mr.. Appleby, of this county.
Several firms from a distance made fine
exhibits of engines, threshers &c.
A great many machines were sold during
the day to farmers Of this county by The ex

BrutaI AssauIt-Apain the morals of

Brutal Assault.-Again the morals of
this county were shocked by the brutal as
sault upon Miss Jennie Gloyd, aged Is years,
and the daughter of the late VIM. Gloyd, by
an unknown negro man, near Gaithersburg,
on Thursday of last week, about half past
four o'clock in the afternoon. The scene of
the outrage was in the woods opposite Mr..
Noyes' gate on the road leading from Gath
ersburg to the Camp Ground. The ravisher
hid himself behind large cherry tree stand
ing on the road side and sprang therefrom
and seized his victim, who was on her way
from school, by the hair and dragged her
into the woods. Her books were left strewn
in the road and she screamed with her ut.
most voice. She bore the marks of being
choked and her clothing was badly torn
A young man by the name of Plummer
passing by at the time observed the books
and heard her screams. He hurried to
Gaithersburg and gave the alarm But be.
fore any one could reach the scene of the
devilish crime a train passed along and
scared the brute away, it is supposed, as he
had released his victim without accomplish
ing his purpose and executing his threat to
kill her and made his escape when assist
ance reached the young lady. Miss Gloyd
states that the negro was stranger to her,
and describes him as man about feet 8
inches in height, of stout build, dark color,
full eyes and wearing snuff -colored coat
and dark pants. The community telt out
ragged and started in immediate search for
the villain. Several negroes were arrested
having feature like those of the ravisher,
but none with like clothing. They were
also carried before the young lady and she
did not recognize any of them as her as
sailant. The search is still kept up, but at
this writing Thursday morning, the demon
still remains at liberty. 1t is to be hoped
that he will be apprehended at once and
justice dealt out to him. Miss Gloyd is re-
covering from the shock she received.
The County Commissioners have offered
reward of $500 for any information re-
sulting in the arrest of the assailant and his
conviction. ttt kf

TheOries.

This Charleston disaster has had the
effect of bringing to light all the the
ories about earthquakes, but none of
them have yet been verified. We
know, in a general way, that these
disturbances of the earth's crust are
usually in warm regions, and that
there is some relation between them
and volcanoes. The most reasonable
of the theories suggested that the
earth is parting with its internal heat
hence the mass of the glove is shrink
ing. This, in times past, threw up
ranges of mountains; but in more
modern times has led to these slight
displacements of the earth's crust that
we call earthquakes. All accounts
agree that, to the ordinary man or wo-
man, there is nothing so appalling as
disturbance of this kind. II there is
one thing about which we think we
are certain it is that the earth beneath
our feet is solid and can be depended
upon to sustain us. When that, how
ever, becomes fluid, shifting, and un-
certain, then does it seem as if chaos
had come again. Those who have
faced death in every form, unquailing-
ly, lose heart and courage when the
stability of the world about them is
shaken by an earthquake, nor can
men ever get used to these disturban-
ces, for the terror seems to increase at
every new visitation.-- From Demorests
Monthly for November.

Submerged.
An Appalling Loss Of Life.


News of an appalling catastrophe
comes from Texas. The town of Sa-
bine Pass is under water and
sixty people are known to have been
drowned in the flood which visited the
place on Tuesday. 1t is certain that
this number will be greatly increased
when definite information of the full
extent Of the disaster can be obtained.
AT Johnson's Bayou, La, whole fami-
lies are known to have been drowned.
Relief parties have started from Beau
mont and other points in the vicinity.
Houses were carried from their foun-
dations and the occupants hurled into
the raging waters thsts-invaded the
town from the Gulf and the lake at
the same time. Two refugees who
reached Beaumont by boat and rail
give narrowing accounts of the devas-
tation wrought, but no adequate
knowledge of the extent of the disas-
ter can yet be obtained. The destruc-
tion of property and loss of life is even
more complete than that which some
time since overwhelmed the town OF
Indianola. Sabine Pass is post vii
lage, sixty miles up the coast from
Galveston and twenty-eight miles
southwest from Beaumont, the county
seat of Jefferson county. 1t stood on
fine stretch OF sea beach at the
mouth Of the Sabine river, which
forms large estuary or bay near its
outlet into the Gulf Of Mexico. Gal
weston is sixty miles farther west.
The place had population of 500 or
600 only. The river had soft mud
bar at the entrance, and the harbor
affords good anchorage for vessels.
A good lighthouse, placed near the
entrance, which can be seen many
miles at sea, serves as a guide for the
coasting vessels in the absence of any
marked popularity of the monotonous
shores of the Gulf.
The storm, which reached its disas.
trous elimination at Sabine Pass, ap.

BOOKS FOR NOVEMBER.
DEMoREsr's MONTHLY.

Just what every lady wants. A
Magazine that combines the essentials
of all others, and certainly fills the
bill. The November number OF this
popular progressive Magazine is at
hand, and fine number it is, contain
ing a beautiful oil picture, "The Mu-
sic Lesson" besides fifty other illustra-
tions. It's literary departments are in
structive as we'll as amusing, and its
fashion department is just what is
wanted in these hard times, as each
number contains an order emitting
the purchaser to select a pattern OF
any design in that number and of any
size. thus saving the purchaser of a
single number about thirty cents, and
saving of over SO to yearly subscrib-
ers. Our lady readers who wish to
economize will appreciate this, for
while they get the finest literary Mag
azine in the world at only So per
year, they also get all the patterns
they wish to use (free), from the recog-
nized fountain-head of fashions.

Thursday sent to Mr.. Dana, Of the

reimburse the latter for the undertak-

In his letter to Mr.. Dana Colonel
Grant denied the validity Of the claim
and took occasion to allude to the in

which occasioned him to make that
interestpublic. Indeclining toreceive
the check Paul Dana says "The state

The statement that the widow OF
General Grant had announced her in
tention Of selling the Generals favo-
rite place at Long Branch because of
the melancholy memories it holds re-
calls the fact that there are very many
happier women in the world now
than she. There is of course no 9TH
er reason why the cottage should be
sold, for the proceeds from the sale
Of the Generals memoirs and the trust
fund, from which comfortable in
come is derived, place her far above
want Of any material kind. Since the
Generals death Mrs. Grant has lost
her former cheerfulness and courage.
Socially she has become recluse, go
ing nowhere, interested in almost
nothing and wrapped apparently in
melancholy contemplation Of the past
Always robust woman, she still en-.
joys good health, but it is feared this
will give way if she cannot be aroused
and her mind diverted. The best oI
her life went out with the funeral pro
cession which started from Mount Nc
Gregor and she understands this bet
ter than any one else in the world.
