We regret to learn that the handsome
toarn of Col. J. G. Shields, of The Spectator.
situated ca his farm in Rockbridge county.
was totally destroyed 10y fire Sunday NOR
sling last between 8 and 10 O'Clock. Col.
Shields and his son were walking out in
the lawn, when smoke was seen to issue
from the barn. and the alarm of fire was
given by the depot agent near by. Upon
reaching the barn thorough examination
failed to disclose fire anywhere. On the
top OF the wheat which was in the straw,
there WAS great heat, as if from the over
heated grain which had been closely packed
10 the barn in damp condition. An
effort was made to throw out the heated
grain, but before it could be accomplished
the whole mass was on FIRE. and the barn
and its contents were entirely destroyed.
The Col. took special pride in his barn,
which he had built himself in substantial
and handsome style. The loss is quite
heavy, With very light insurance.

DPath of Jas, A. Austin

MT Jas. A, Austin died at his residence
ON South River, in this comfy on the oath
sast.. aged 70 years. He was born near
Port Republic Jan. Is, 1918, but lived the
greater portion of his life in Augusta
He was gentleman universally esteemed
for his high character and generous ia
tire, aud won the friendship of all with
whom he was ever associated by his uni
form courtesy. unaffected kindness and
sterling integrity. Few men have shared
so largely in the confidence of their fellow
men, Or who more richly deserved the i'm
plicit trust of their neighbors. AS hus-
band, father. friend and christian, he was
as free from fault as it is given to NOR
tails to be, and in every relation of life he
bore his part as true christian gentle
man. The immense concourse of people,
which gathered from all parts of the coun
ty to attend his funeral. testified to his
hold upon their affections, and evidenced
that the county had lost one of its m ost
valued and useful citizens. No one spoke
of him except in kindness and love. His
5ntercourse with men left an impress for
good. and the influence of his life was a
henediction. He leaves wife and four
children, who will cherish his memory and
profit by his example.

this refined and elegant expression coming
from Senator of the United States, VINO

of dignity and free from abuse. the au-
dience gave hearty response. There was
not a thought advanced, nor any question
involving governmental policy discussed
but merely such common place assertions
as that the Republicans wanted free Wills

duced the tariff on the necessities OF life.
That the present tariff was 40 per cent.

which he said trusts were priv ate property.
He illustrated what a trust is by the

Grover Cleveland would thew to that line
with clear cut edge" For forty minutes
the distinguished Senator entertained the
people with such loose and general state

for the people to take away with them. and
so far as we could learn from all alike
there was a general expression of disap-
pointment.

who died on the 18th, inst aged 66 years.
The dear old home is silent
That once was full of glee.
And funeral shadows linger
Where sunlight used to be.
The brightest link is broken,
That bound us TO the spot,
And memories the sweetest
With sadder ones are frought.
AS wild storm comes in summer
AT close of peaceful day.
So broke the tide of sorrow
Upon our quiet way.
There came no sign or message
To herald coming i'll.
But swift and sure and silent
Deaths fatal arrow fell.
It stilled the heart whose throbbing
Was ever warm and true.
Whose deeds of sweet affection
For us were ever new.
Bnt. Oh. for us remaineth
The bitterness of tears
The loneliness and sorrow
To shadow-coming years.
But while our hearts are mourning
And time goes slowly on
nd we are missing sqdIv
The loved one that is gone,
One thought shall cheer ns ever,
1t is that he is free
And anchored safe in harbor
Beyond life's troubled sea,
No spot on earth so sacred
That death will not invade.
And under meath the grass
Our dearest hopes are laid.
But, oh how sweet the vision
OF home beyond the skies,
Where there shall be no parting.
And pleasure never dies,
1t robbed our home of father
And fathers love and care,
And left pail of sadness
TO hang forever there.
1t st1lled the heart whose throbbing
Was ever warm and true,
Whose deeds of sweet affection
For us were ever new.
The patient hands are folded,
The weary feet at rest,
And anxious care and trouble
no longer fill his heart.
But oh, for US remaineth
The bitterness of tears,
The loneliness and sorrow
10 shadow coming years.
