fCorrespOadence OF The Richmono DiHpatchl
OSAScocK, October 3. 1888.
The Circuit Court for Accomack-
Judge p. 7. Gunter presiding-has been
in session during tho week. and an i'm
portant SANDER suit has Just been de-
cided. John Harris and John W.
White, two well-kpown residents OF
Hacks Neck, in the touthern part OF Ac-
comack county, are prominent members
OF the Order Of Good Templars, and
were recently rival candidates for the POI
sition of chief templar Of their local
lodge. Harris once led q rather wild
and dissipated life, but has re-
formed, and is now well thought
OF in the community where he
lives Tho contest between the
rival candidates was spirited and bitter.
White freely ventilated his competitor
past record, aud stated among other
things that Harris was not lawfully mar
ried to his wife. Harris defeated White
for the position OF cmet templar, and
then Instituted q suit for SANDER against
him, fixing his damage at $1,000. the
case was deliberately argued by able
counsel on both sides. and the Jury found
a verdict in favor OF the plaintiff, bat
gave him only S25 for the damage done
his reputation.

HOW TO TINE A TRAINS SPEED.
Counting the Clicking Sounds Made by the
Rails Good Way.
"We must be going forty miles

ave must be going forty miles a
hour
ooh, 10 not more than thirty"
"rhirty? nonsense more like fifty
Something like this is heard every
day on railroad trains, especially among
parties Of young people, says writer
in Golden days.
Not one person in one hundred who
travel has an idea Of the speed OF a
train. Even 4 large percentage OF the
regular traimncn ctlnnot tell with any
degree Of accuracy.
Engineers Use their driving wheel as
Il gauge. They know its circumfer-
encc, and counting its revolutions with
in 4 certain time can tell very accurate
ly the speed at which they are run
ming.
Tie favorite method of timing train
among passengers is to count the tcle-
graph poles. A. rule these poles are
planted thirty to the mile, but in prai-
rie countries and places where only Il
single wire is used, the number dlmin-
ishes 70 twenty-five to the mile, 50 that
rule will not always work.
The most accurate method, and the
one most in use by experienced railroad
men, is to count tie number Of rail
joints the train passes over in twenty
seconds. The rails on nearly all roads
are thirty feet i'll length, and the num-
Der passed over in twent> ", seconds
the speed l@rlS1I0ur Il train is runnin
FoE>Cnstance, if Il passenger can coul
thirty clicks on rail joint in TWEEN
a seconds, the train is running at Il
4 speed of thirty miles an hour.
Actually this method falls lit
short, as in the example given abo'
the speed would be nearer thirty-ol
than thirty miles, but it is near enoug
for all practical purposes.

Bad Luck of the Eustle Chair.
TPhiladelphia Times.

The threatened abolition of the bus
tie is not only Il grlevious thing for the
manufacturers of that article, but it
dashes the hope OF profit entertained
by certain furniture concern. This
store pridcs itself on Il novel design in
house furnishings. Only month or
so ago its boss designer got patent on
Il model of a sewing chair for women.
Its unique feature was the shape of the
back, the lower portion OF which ex-
tended rearward with a bulge. This
was intended TO accommodate the FEM
mime hustle, and the inventor believed
that he had hit upon Il device that
would sell thousands of those chairs.
But stock of the hustle chairs is no
sooner ready to display than bustles
begin to fade out of the fashionable
world, and those chairs will have to
be altered into common place affairs to
be Slieable.

The Effect of Realism.

\ Washington colored man named
Taylor want to see Buffalo Bill's wild
west show few days since and was
given seat we'll in front. He took a
lively interest in the performance, and
during the attack Oil the settlers cabin
by the Indians and their repulsion by
the COW boys, headed by Buffalo Bill
became greatly excited. The ground
was strewn with apparently dead In
dians and COW boys. Springing from
his seat with a shout, Taylor whipped
out a bulldog revolver and joined in
the fight. He had fired one shot into
the crowd, when an officer who was
standing close by grabbed him by the
neck and threw him to the ground.
Taylor was Immediately turned over
to the care Of the police and was sent
for ten days to place where buft;llOes
and Indians are unknown.

Speed of Trains.

1Ruilroad and Er>aG1ncering Journal,]
The Otli5.:.al Guide for June says that
+bo f,1t1stest trains now Oh the time
.11aDles are two on the Baltimore and
Ohio, which are timed to run the 10
miles from Baltimore to Washington
in ..45 minutes, without stops, making
the rate Of speed 53.3 miles an hour.
1t is stated, however, that these trains
rarely succeed in making the trip in the
time allowed No other train can be
found which makes over 80 miles an
hour, and the nearest approach to it is
a train OF the Pennsylvania, which
runs from jersey City to Philadelphia,
making one stop, ut all average speed
of 1873 miles an hour. On the opposi-
tion-the Bound Brook-line one train
makes the distance from Jersey City to
Philadelphia at the rate Of 45.9miles all
hour, without allowance for the four
stops. The quickest train between
Philadelphia and Baltimore runs at the
rate of lis miles an hour.
The fastest long-distance train is that
of the Chicago Limited, on the New
York Central and Hudson River, which
averages II miles an hour from New
York to Albany. and 406 miles from
Albany to Buffalo. The corresponding
train OH the Pennsylvania road runs at
the rate of 3S miles an hour from
Philadelphia to Pittsburg.
The slowcst passenger train is not
easy to determine, but al ''cNpfcss' on
!; North Carolina line which takes nine
hours to run 100 miles-an average Of
Ill miles an hour-is 4 very promising
! candidate for the honor.
