VIRGINIA NOTES.

The deficit of the Richmond exposition was
from 81, 900 to $4,000, which the sale of re-
naming stock on hand will about counterbai-
ance. The property was capitalized at S12O, 900.
Gov. Leo will deliver an address in New York
on February %. In his remarks on that occa-
sion the governor will devote a good deal of
attention to the industrial prosperitv of this

esting to say ON the race problem at the south.
The Richmond Terminal managers are re-
ported to be negotiating a scheme with the

latter is to extend its lines between Weverton
and Lexington to Bristol. and there to connect
with the East Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia
road, so as to give the latter a shorter outlet
north than Its present route over the Western
North Carolina road. 1t is intended as men,
ace to the Norfolk and Western road. The new
construction will be about $50 miles.
Captain Ham. Sheppard, collector of internal
revenue for the Lynchburg district has de-
ellned the presidency of the Florence Gala.
Land company, recently rendered him at a

their money in Virginia, where the chances
are equally as good if not better than any
where else he knows of.
Gov. z. z. Jackson, of Maryland. has given
President Smith, of Randolph Macon College.

weeks ago on foot for home, but it seems he
has never reached there.
private letter from San Jose, Costa Rica,
to Jno. L. Williams of Richmond, says, in
speaking OF the recent earthquake there: THE
beautiful cathedral, all the hotels, and not 100
houses were left fit to live in. The loss is est-
mated at over S1.000.000. The people are all
living in tents in the streets, and hundreds
sleep in the circus tents. One lady, Mrs. Bon
nafel, who died from fear, had witnessed Wash
lngton's Inauguration and been at the court of
Marie Antoinette. She was lilo years old.
Strange fate to die in Costa Rice from such a
cause, after witnessing the horrors of the
French revolution"

A Vegetarian Dies of Old Age.

From the Cincinnati Enquirer, Jan. %.
One of the most remarkable characters Gin
cinnati ever saw died yesterday. 1t was DIR.
Joseph Garretson of sth street. For sixty
two years of his life he never drank cup of
coffee nor slipped little tea. For fifty years of
his life he ate no meat; for twenty-six years of
his life he never took so much as pinch of
salt. He came of English stock. and was born
in that county of long-lived people, York, Pa.
February u, 1908. His ideas were simple but
on the subject of diet he believed strictly in a
vegetarian diet. Nature, he used to say. has
supplied this food, and it is against nature
when man eats meats. To those who would
eat meat, however. he insisted = hat it should
be eaten boiled. He used to point to the In
dams as proof of this, claiming that they were
never sick unless from wounds. He trusted to
no cooks to prepare his food, but did it him.
self. When he went upon journey he took
his food with him. and only a few weeks before
his death was in New York city, going the en-
tire distance with his food. He claimed that
everything greasy was injurious to the human
system, and of all things horrible was piece
of meat fried. Dyspepsia and all the ghosts
and Nightmares of indigestion he attributed to
frying. His only drink during his long life
was water. or sometimes lemonade. He was
continually experimenting the subject of
diet. and attributed his long life entirely to his
diet and habits.

THE HUNGARIAN MINISTRY IN DANGER.-It is
thought likely that Premier Tisza of Hungary,
may be overthrow by the feeling which has
arisen against the army bill. The ministerial
majority adhered to him under strong pres
sure, but public opinion favors the opposition
message from Kossuth read at banquet on
Sunday, powerfully contributes to increase the
agitation. The chief objections to the bill are
against the clause enactng that examination
in the reserve commissions be held in German
and that those failing to pass the examinations
for commission in the reserve after one year of
service shall serve another year. Kossuth's
letter touched the strongest chords of the
national feeling in saying that Hungary must
have national army with Hungarian colors,
Hungarian commanders and Hungarian feeling,
and that the man was no Hungarian and ought
to be abhorred who would surrender those
rights.
