The Oldest Church in Vir.
ginia.

At Smithfield, Va, there is an
old edifice called the Old Brick
Church, which is said to be the old
est house of worship in the State.
1t has been decaying for years,
and now an effort is being made to
restore it. 1t was built in 1852, and
has been used for over two CEN
turtles. Among the contributions
for it's restoration are two thousand
bricks, which had formed the walls
of the Bay Church, which was as
sociated with it. These bricks
have passed through several hands,
having served most of their time
In the wallsof farmers kitchen,
while part Of them stood for a
while as the walls Of burial
ground. Now they strengthen the
walls Of the church. The roofs put
on the edifice are the fourth set.
The first, put on in 1882, remained

He Was a Liar From Dead
wood.

A number of gentlemen were
gathered in one of the Offices about
town yesterday talking on various
subjects. Gradually the conversa-
tion drifted on to gambling, and
each one mentioned some big
games, either faro or poker, that
he had seen. "A mild-mannered
innocent-appearing youth, who up
to this time had been silent, but
apparently deeply interested list
ener, shifted his position and oc-
cupied chair nearer to the door.
BY this time each one had told his
experience, and the youth evident
ly thought 5t was time for him to
tell what he knew about gambling.
With a weary and Indifferent yawn
he remarked:
"You fellers don't call them big
games, hope. Why, you ought to
have seen the poker game / oncet
saw up in the Whoop UP country.
The Whoop UP country, you know,
is located just across the Montana
line, in the British possessions.
Three men were in the game.
After the deal the player next the
dealer looked at his hand and stood
pat. He pulled out$11 900 in green
backs and laid it on the table. The
second feller drew two cards,
reached into his vest pocket and
drew ont $4,000 in silver and said:
.T'll see yer $11, 900 and go We $4,000
better The third man studied his
hand three days and nights and
then fell from his chair dead. Yes,
gentlemen, he died from starvation
before he could make up his mind
whether to come in or stay out"
The silence which followed the
recital of the story was absolutely
dense. Finally one of the listeners
asked:
"Did you say that man pulled
$4,000 in silver from his vest pock-
et?"
"That's what I said"
"Say young man where are you
from ?"
"Pm from Deadwood, pard: but
guess Pll have to be going. But,
say, pard, whenever you hear any
body talking about big games, you
just think of the Whoop Up game,
and remember / saw it,"
Then he vanished into the cold,
wintry, air, while his listeners be-
gan an animated discussion on the
abolition of hell and it's possible
effects on the fate of liars.

ley, the wagon stuck in mud
hole. Mr.. Hogentogler whipped
his mule vigorously. The animal
strained and tugged in an effort to
move the wagon, and, to make the
situation still more exasperating,
both of the traces broke. In this
emergency Mr.. Hogentogler be-
thought him of the eel-skins. They
were tough, and he substituted
them for the traces. When they
had been emptied of their contents,
fastened to the single-tree and tied
across the breast of the mule the
whip was put to the animal again,
and he moved off without difficulty.
He had gone but a few PAGES, how
ever, before Mr.. Hogentogler dis
covered that the wagon was stand
ing still. The skins were not yet
dry and were stretching. When
the mule reached the barn the
wagon still remained in the mud
hole, and 1t was quite dark.
"But / wasn't dern bit bother
ed," relates Mr.. Hogentogler. W
jist slipped them new traces over
the end of hitchin' post and went

would shrink, and sure enough,
they did. In the mornin' that

Another Marvellous Yarn

We look to nothing less than
week of hard frost or an act of leg
islature to stop this epidemic. The
microbe is abroad and contagion is
spreading in every direction. "F.
w. p" writes us from Philadelphia
saying: The enclosed special to
the Press Of December 11th seems
to indicate that the author of the
octopus yarn in your issue of Dec.
Sd has given up his seafaring life
.and is now a resident of Stony
Valley" We quote the dispatch
as follows:
The inhabitants of the Stony
Greek Valley, which lies in the
Blue Mountains, five miles above
Harrisburg, are great eel catchers.
The fish of Stony Creek Dam are
completely dominated by the eels,
which grow to an unusual size.
For the past five years there have
been two eels in the dam that
have refused all hooks, but have
lived so sumptuously on the deli
cacies of the dam that Stony
Creekers believed them to have at
tained prodigious proportions. No
story of the discovery of sea SER
pent has ever reached the ears of
the residents of the valley that
they did not match, when they
came to market in Harrisburg,
with a more astounding tale of the
performances ofStony Creek DAMS
monstrous eels.
jeremiah Hogentogler is one of
the leading and most highly re-
spected inhabitants of Stony Creek
Valley. He makes a frugal living
by selling kindling wood, pine
knots, mountain tea berries and
Christmas trees in the city markets
on Wednesdays and Saturdays.
He has now become a hero, for on
last Thursday he captured the two
great eels. AS Mr.. Hogentogler
tells the incident himself, he had
started with his mule and wagon
on a wood chopping expedition
along the mountain side that bord-
ers the dam. A Stony Creeker al
way carries hook and line with
him and when he tires of chopping
wood or digging for sassafras he
invariably takes little recreation
by bObbing for eels in the dam,
Last Thursday Mr.. Hogentogler
baited his hook with some corned
beef and landed both Of the famous
!eels much TO his surprise and after
a tough struggle. One eel was
within two inches of four feet in
length, and the other measured a
trifie over three feet. He skinned
his prizes At once, and, to prevent
the hidey from shrinking, stuffed
each with green walnuts and tufts
of dried grass.
When NJ, Hogentogler had fin-
ished his days work In the woods
