DEATH OF MRS. HAYES.

Mrs. Lucy Ware Hayes, wife of
Ex-PTesiient r. b. Hayes, died at
her home in Fremont, Ohio, on the
morning of the 25th. She passed
away peacefully and without appar-
emit pain. She was a woman of
beautiful character, and was proba.
bly, the most popular lady who has
ever presided at the White House.
EVERYBODY admired her and had a
kind word for her. When she ban.
ished wine from the table III the Elk.
ecutive Mansion, it was predicted
that she had taken an unpopular
step, but not so. She was commend.
ed from all sources, because of the
moral courage which aSSailed a usage
associated with the White House
from Washington down. Her maid.
en- name was Lucy Ware Webb, and
she was born at Chillicothe, Ohio,
August 2Sth, 1881. Her father. DIR.
James Webb, served IN the war OF
1912 and died during the cholera
scourge, in 1888, at Lexington, Ky
During the war she accompanied
the army and served in the hospit

Saturday afternoon Seyenty-six
men working in the car wheel de.
partment at Mount Clare were dis.
charged. The order for the dis.
charge came from the Central office
on ednesday, but was kept very Sc
cret, the discharge being surprise
to every one of the men. The cause
is attributed to the cost of manufac.
turing the wheel. Mr.. Conway was
requested a month ago to give an
estimate on his works, and reported
a few days later that the cost was
IS 0S per each wheel. Overtures were
made by firm in Wilmington, Del,
offering to do the same work for
IS. 90. The contract has been made,
and also an order for 1000 wheels.
A large number of the discharged
men and their families are already
in pitiful condition. They have
lived up to the last cent of their
scanty earnings, and when their
work was taken from them the
stores where they dealt refused to let
them have goods on credit. Some
entire families have managed to
keep their heads above water by
working on the farms about the
country, the women and children
picking peas and strawberries and
the men doing heavier work. 1t is
SAID that since the discharges began,
early last month, about 400 men
have been put off, and as 150 expect
to 60 later in the week the number
will be brought up to $50.

THE ISSUE OF 1892 BEGUN.

The friends of Protection for
American Industries cannot remain
indifferent to the activity of those
Free Traders who, under the plea
for "Tariff Reform" have already
organized in the principal business
centres with the ayowed purpose of
renewing the conflict decided
against them in the last election.
| This effort finds especial encourage.
ment in the narrow margin between
parties in the Fifty-first Congress.
In that body 10 seats will be occu.
pied by men chosen by a plurality
of less than 100 votes, % whose
plurality was less than 500 votes,
40 with less than 1000. .ee
Hence it is seen that the Free
Trade promoters have but to "hold
their own" and capture 2 of these
close districts to secure control of
the House of Representatives to be
chosen in 1890. Relying upon their
own industry. the ever ready aid of
foreign allies, and the apathy pecu.
liar to "off years." in politics, they
have begun their work ; and they are
likely to succeed in controlling the
next Congress to he elected unless
promptly and persistentIy resisted
at every point of the political field.
Farmers are again to be told, and
asked to believe, that a tariff impos-
ed upon yard of imported cloth,
or q pound of imported steel, increas.
es by so much the cost of all the
cloth and steel made and sold in the
United States-whlle the tariff of
twenty cents bushel on wheat, ten
cents a bushel on corn, fifteen cents
a bushel on potatoes, ten cents a
pound on wool, and four cents a
pound on butter, has no influence
upon the price of those articles. In
short, all the assertions and misrep.
reservations hitherto employed are
to be revived and applied to the
conversion of agricultural voters
who in the recent election contribu-
ted so emphatically to the discomfit-
Tre- of the Free Trade propaganda
at the same time they are expected.
to overlook the tact that the success of
the "tariff reform " they are invited
to promote will inevitably force from
their present occupations multitudes
of workingmen now the chief con
sumers of food products, and that in
such event these must not only cease
to be purchasers as now, but many
of them are likely to become rivals
in farming. s'tlH

THE Potomac PULP COMPANY
The following unauthorized item has
appeared in nearly every paper in this
county:
"Since the recentflood the Potomac
Pulp Mill Company, located at Dam
No. 8, are considering the ACCESSIBILITY
of removing their machinery to some
point on the river where wood more
suitable for their use can be found
more conveniently"
On Monday evening a representa-.
tive of the Herald called the attention
of Mr.. B. Gilpen Smith, to this state
ment. He declared that there never
was the slightest foundation for the
rumor. "Our losses" said Mr..
Smith, "amount to about four thous-
and dollars, principally to stock
About three hundred cords of wood
and quantity of pulp were carried
away. Tho damages to the mill pro.
perty do not exceed one thousand dol
lars. The Williamsport canal level
has been made navigable at a cost OF
five hundred dollars, one-half of which
was subscribed by our company. We
expect the level to be filled on Thurs.
day. We have resumed operations
and have made all necessary prepare
tions to get wood to the MILL" The
same evening Mr.. Smith informed a
gentleman that he would purchase a
large quantity of poplar wood from
him and named the price the company
would pay for it.-HagerSt0,0n Herald.

THE GERMAN BAPTIsTs.

The German Baptist Convention
which assembled at Harrisonburg
on the 9th adjourned on the 10Th,
after a laborious and useful session,
attended by over 10000 people. The
weather was quite unpropitious
most OF the time, and on the last
day it rained almost continuously,
making it very disagreeable on the
grounds and causing much incon-
venience and discomfort by reason
of the slush and mud. Warrens-
burg, Mo-, was selected as the place
for holding the next meeting, which
will be Tuesday after Pentecost. IN
1890.
A number of visitors and delegates
from the West stopped over in
Staunton going to Harrisonburg and
returning on their way to their
homes. Their simplicity ofmanners,
unaffected, genial way of meeting
strangers and Gnstudied converse.
ton indicate the primitive honesty
and the entire freedom from con YEN.
tionalitles which distinguish This
people. No one can meet them that
feeling of kindness is not inspired
by the meeting. The women man.
ifest the same unconcern for social
and with happy, smiling faces, shed
a glow of pleasure wherever they go.
Many of them are beautiful, and
their natural attractions are heigh-
tened by the neat, simple dress they
wear, without artificial adornment,
and distinct from the fashionable
dressmaking establishments. Their
appearance is a severe commentary
upon the folly Of modern fashions
and society requirements. The
very simplicity of their attire, con-
trasting SO widely with the " aounce
around and furbelows' OF the deyo.
tees of fashion, has subduing effect
in drawing out the better feeling of
humanity.
The action of the meeting on sew
eral questions gives the trend Of the
thought of the Dunkards and indi-
Gates the restraints they choose to
observe in habit and usages of com
mon practice. The question as to
whether the sisters should wear rid
ing habits was taken up, and the
convention advised that no super.
fuities be worn. The question of
whether gold watches could be WON
was also taken up, and 1t was decid-
ed that it was cause for expulsion
from the church. No member who
uses tobacco can be chosen as a del
egate. The meeting voted down
motion to encourage local option as
the rules of the church forbid taking
part in exciting political events.
They are a peculiar people when
contrasted with other denominations
and the more to be respected for
their peculiarities, that the peculiar.
tiles are justified by the religion
they profess and the teachings of
the Bible, which they cherish as the
cardinal creed Valley Varginian.
