BLAINE IN THE OLD DOMINION
Judge Wood on Virginia Politics.

Judge NJ. b. Wood, a prominent Republi-
can from Scott county, Va, passed through
Washington last week on route to Philadel-
phia. Judge Wood is large owner of
mineral land in Southwest Virginia. He has
travelled extensively in the State in the las,
two months. He was asked who was the
choice of the Republicans of Southwes,
Virginia for President. He said that the
rank and file of the people are for Blaine.
"As for myself" said he, 81 am for the
nominee of the party. Blaine is my first
choice. He is the American of Americans,
and the protectionist of the protectionists.
He is the strongest man today in the South
as Republican and especially in Virginia.
If we cannot elect him, we cannot elect any
Republican. With him as our candidate we
can carry Virginia.
"You may say that the lXth Congress Dis.
trict will send two solid Blaine men to the con-
vention and from personal observation it is
nv opinion that the With With and probably
the With districts will do likewise. The
rank and file of the Virginia Republicans do
not seem to to know any of our great leaders
except Blaine.
who is General Malone for?"
well, hear that he and Captain Wise
are for Senator Sherman. do not know it,
but do not know that General Malone is
not so hostile to Mr.. Blaine as some folks
will have you believe"

The Caucasian Jews are Unfortunately
fond Of green stuff, consuming it in guam
titles that amaze stranger. In partaking
OF food, as in the mode Of service, the old
jew h customs are strictly followed A
wootlen platter Tor, if guest be present,
a handsome copper dish is placed
upon carpet on the floor. On this
are set two cakes of unleavened bread
covered with cloth-woolen on ordin-
AIRY occasions, but of silk on Sabbaths
ami festivals Salt, onions, garlic and
fruit are ranged round the bread and all
sit down upon the floor. The master
pours water over his two hands,
rectes blessing, then uncovers the
bread, breaks the upper loaf into rs many
pieces as there are males present, and
gives each one piece. The pieces are
dipped into salt three times and eaten.
The second loaf is then served in like
fashion and distributed among the fe-
males The mistress of the house brings
in the first dish herself; then, if stranger
be present, wells and withdraws. Every
thing is put on table, or rather on the
floor, at once; and it is customary to take
Il little of each dish served. When roast
meats are eaten, a sharpened piece of
wood is employed as an aid to the fingers,
but ordinarily fingers alone are de rigueur.
The highland Jews prepare an excellent
mountain dew" ard drink large quanti-
ties of the spirit without seeming to eX-
perience any intoxicating effects.-St.

Morning Walk in the City.

Somebody is always asking why bust
ness men do not more generally walk part
of the way to their business every morn
ing. There are several good reasons why
they do not. First of all, they are apt To
have half bucket of water thrown on
them by some needless Jeames, who al
ways sets apart 8 a. m, or Whereabouts,
us the proper time to wash the sidewalks.
Then they will probably have to walk
past three or four lor,lly gentlemen's gem
tlenen who are engaged in knocking the
dust out of the familiar door mat by
striking it against lamp post. These
are the dangers that menace the morning
walker in the side streets. Nor is he any
better off when he gets to Il business av
enue. BY a sort of sacred tradition,
about half the shops on such avenues are
violently swept ont at exactly the hour
when business men are going down town,
and the only way TO escape from the in
tolerable dust is to walk in the middle of
the street, Plainly, New York is not
built for the convenience Of business men
who want to walk.-New York Tribune.
