MARkiED-At the residence of the BRIDE on
sabbath morning December 18th 1887 by Prof
VI. Maiiispn, Mr. Lyman H. Warner, of Craig
Burt Cuunty, Ncb.. 10 Miss Minnie A. Ashley
eldest daughter of the la;e William Ashley, 81
Slrongsyillc.
Many hearty congratulations have been ex.
tended to them. They leave in few days for
their home in Nebraska. Minnie will be sadly
missed in the church and sabbath school and by
large circle of friends aud acquaintance. Lut
especial y from the home eircl. where the loss Of
| her presence aud counsel seems irrcparabe. Al
though The wedding quiet one, they were
the recericn'S of MANY valuable presents. AT a
reception given by Mr. and Mrs d. NJ Strong, on
Monday goodls number the mmcd ute neigh
bors AMI fsien Is were p-cseat, All were
unanimous in vi hing them much hippirc =;
but tears of regret shed that she ma been
Ieaptured by one living 50 ar from Us. Bat
still We bid them Gpt specl A FIR END.
Capt. p. II. Swift, of Rice Lake
and editor of the Chronotype of that
town, was in the city the fore part Of
the week and made Us a pleasant call
The captains brother w. p. Swift, is
a candidate for Circuit Judge, and a
some of the cattle IN these pastures
got nnruly year ago last fall, and
bolted Cha ley TAYLOR AMI tore down
some of the fences, and let majority
of the Republican herd run wild,
mcuh to the disgust Of the CAPTAIN,
who has Il mi shty poor opinion OF
boilers generally, (unless he be the
bolter) and of Douglas county boilers
in particular, the Captain is now out
repairing the fences and trying to get
''the cattle" back into the pastures 50
as to have all things lovely when the
time come to vote for circuit Judge.
We commend the Captain fore
thought, or, rather hindlhought, for
he should have poured his oil upoa
the troubled waters before and not af-
ter his brother had announced his
candidacy, it has selfish look now.
However the Captain is a good clever
fellow most all editors are-and we
are glad he came up to see US, AMI
hope he will forgive US these few rvt-
respective glances, but his pleasing
presence recalled We olden time and
we couldn't help it. Having a can
didate of our own in Mr.. Clough, of
course the Captain will not expect
much Of US.

We hear that Duman Woodlands
log fer the old settlers cabin is quite
marvel in its way. II. Crossley
says he stretched tape line along it
from end to end There is a sag or
curvature Of the spine in the middle
that makes a divergence of six feet
two inches from a straight line. The
tree was cut because it made the cows
in the pasture so cross-eyed to look at
it that the butter from their milk
made the children tongue-tied. The
tree never leafed out till fall, because
it took the sap all summer to find its
way up to the branches. When
Duman put the log on the fair ground
it imediately began to roll all around
the .premies, being too crooked to lie
still. They had to whip up the team
to get away from 1t.

One of our exchanges says that
Senator Sawyer voted against the con-
frmation of Lamar. This is not cor
rect Before the vote was taken those
who counted noses had Mr.. Sawyer
down to vote for the confirmation, but
the nimble senator in company with
some other coward, took to the woods
before the vote was called and the
two were reported as paired, and no.
body knows how he would have voted
had he been present, but we all know
that he was not present and voting as
he should-against putting such man
upon the supreme bench.

Contract Awarded to a Staunton
Enterprise.

TIE Hale Pavement Go. of this city, in
hot competition with Belgian block
granite, Medina sandstone, asphalt, con-
crete, Macadam and other kinds of pave
ment, has secured contracts for paving
several of the most important streets Of
Columbus. Ohio, with its patent, brick
roadway, and last Tuesday morning, July
3rd, Is teams and $50 men commenced
work on 2lsJ street of that city, and by
the end of this month that street will be in
use. Work on other streets will be begun
as soon as working forces can be organ
lied.
These contracts were awarded after a
most careful inspection, by a committee
OF the City Council and property holders
on the streets to be paved, of the streets Of
Charleston, W. Va, where there are miles
OF this pavement in use. 1t is probable
that the Hale Pavement Co. will put down
about 100000 square yards of street paw
ing in Columbus this year; it is also in ne
gotlatlon for miles of its superior road
way in numerous other cities.
Why cannot we have some of our Staun-
ton streets thus paved? Our macadam
ways can be nothing but mud and dust
making concerns.

Visiting the President and the ''O,d
Bandana.'

Mr.. 3. F. Harlow, of Lewisburg, W.
Va, who. with his wife, has been a guest
of Mr.. Henry Summerson in this city, left
for his home on Monday afternoon. Mr..
H. stopped here on hissfeturn from Colum.
bus, O. and Washington city-having
visited both of those points as member
of the committee appointed at the St.
Louis convention to notify President
Cleveland and ex-senator Thurman of
their nominations. Mr.. Harlow who is a
fine conversationalist, gave representa-
tive of the INDICATOR very interest
ing description of the two visits. He says
Cleveland does not impress the benoIder
as so heavy man as his portraits repre-
sent. He seems to be man in deep
earnest about everything, and when he
stood up and delivered to the committee
the brief, but striking reply (which we
print on the first page of to-day's paper
he appeared to feel what he said deeply
and his feeling gave emphasis to every
word. He gives the idea of man full of
suppressed power. AS for Mrs. Cleveland,
Mr.. Harlow very freely confessed that the
whole Committee fell in love with her.
Her perfectly fran and unaffected man
ner. her perfect command of the right
thing to say at the right time, the happy,
bright face she wears, all combined with
her personal beauty make her irresistible.
The Committee on reaching Columbus,
found the 'noble old Roman" living with
the partner of his life, in one half of a
large dwelling on the corner of street.
The other half is occupied by Mr.. Thur
mans son, with whom the old Democratic
statesman lives. He seemed to be in per-
feet health and gave for a rheumatic knee
got about as briskly as anybody. He
stood while the member of the committee
was reading the letter and all through
the ceremony. His wife shows age more
than her husband. When the party went
out to the yard to be photographed, Mr..
Thurman went as actively as any of them.
Mr.. Harlowe spoke to him about Virginia
and Mr.. Thurman asked many questions
about the State of his birth.
Mr.. Harlow described the trip as one of
the most delightful of his life, and said
that his wife enjoyed it fully as much as
be did.

Peabody Normal Institute.
Editor indicator.

ISttttoi tUUtCutOT.
The same enthusiasm which character
lied the opening of the Institute continues
on the increase. The work of the instruc-
tors is thorough and the teachers seem anx
ious to take in everything which will tend
to better fit them as teachers in the public
schools of the State. Literary exercises
we're conducted by the Institute Tuesday
night, in the main auditorium of the Au-
gusta Street M. E. Church. The exerci-
ses we're not only a credit to the Institute
but credit to the public school system of
Virginia. Prof. Frank Trigg, the Con-
ductor of the Institute, presided over tn Q
literary exercises with marked ability. He
first introduced Rev. Banks, who offered
a fervent prayer in the interest of the ed
vocational work of the State. The recitation
by Miss F. V. Edmunds, was very we'll
rendered. 1t W. s loudly applauded. Miss
Lucy J. Boulding, the Mezzo Soprano of
Lynchburg, sang with much expression,
''Sing sweet bird" Mr. F. F. Stevenson
delive red an Grafton which was we'll re-
ceived. He exhibited many traits of an
orator. Miss E. r. Jones read a finely
written essay on Education never COM
pleted." Clearness of thought and the
logical arrangement of her sentences char
acterized her essay. We may with pro-
priety say that the gem of the programme
WAS UU0 UdU6T. VIZ. LIZ 1uSUlUuC6 EVE.
which was ably edited by Mr.. D. M. Ken
ney. The language employed by Mr..
Kenney in his editorials was terse and ell
egant. 1t was loudly applauded.
Supt. W. W. Robertson, who is ''man
of business" next made a few remarks
rel alive to the certificates. Many of the
mem bers of the Institute. at this point,
gave vent to their grateful feelings for
Prof. Robertson g interest in them. Moth
ing can be said which will be too highly
commencing him for his services,
Mr.. l. Garland Penn, who is Secretary,
is reporting for many papers through the
State.
Not only is Prof. Robertson interested
in US, but such men as Messrs J. r, An
derson and o. j. Derritt, teachers In the
schools here, are doing much for our COM
fort. We shall let you know further of
nur work next week.
