Cunning Swallows.

Birds are often said to possess instinct, as
distinguished from intelligence, by which
is meant, apparently, that such knowledge
as they have is inherited, not acquired
GA bird always builds its nest in one
way" it is said, but few statements could
be less exact.
Our common cliff swallows. known also
as the cave swallow and the 4" Republican" 2"
formerly built against the face of a cliff,
and as a protection against the weather,
the nest, instead Of being open at the top,
was bottle-shaped, the entrance being
through kind of neck at the side Now
that the country has become populous, how
ever, this swallow has taken to nesting
under the caves of barns, where IL Is
shielded from rain by the overhanging
roof
Little by little, therefore, the wise bird
has given up its more elaborate method of
construction, till now you may see side by
side nests that are simple mud saucers,
nests that are built in the old-fashioned bot
tie method, and nests half way between the
two extremes, showing plainly that a
process Of adaptation is going on.
A Pennsylvania newspaper lately report
ed a very clever piece of work by pair of
these same cave swallows. They had built
nest in the old style under the caves of
barn, and when it was done an English
sparrow took possession.
The swallows made frantic efforts to dis
lodge the intruder, but could not drive her
out. Then they went deliberately TO work
and plastered up the neck of the bottle with
mud, burying the sparrow alive. after
which they built another nest close by and
occupied it IS if nothing had happened

Iron Gate.

A LIVELY TIME AT THE FIRST SALE
OVER $42, 900 WORTH OF LOTS DIsPOs-
ED OF IN LESS THAN THREE HOURS.
The first sale of lots at the new town
of Iron Gate, in Allegheny county, was
pronounced success The bidding was
lively and the prices realized were in adj
vance OF the company's rating, in some
instances reaching to over 200 per cent.
Notwithstanding the short notice, less
than ten days, the attendance was good.
The cities of Philadelphia, Washington,
Alexandria, Richmond, Roanoke and
Lynchburg were represented, and the
western end of the G. & 0. sent good
delegate from Rorceverte, Hinton, Alder
the line. Staunton and Harrisonbure
were also well represented.
The price of each lot for sale was
marked on the plot, the company re-
serving alternate lots. Mr.. Geo. I'll. POin
dexter, of the real estate firm of Poin-
dexter & Denoon, Richmond, conducted
the sale. Promptly at 10 o'clock, in the
yard of the company's office, the terms
were announced. Parties who desired a
special lot, started it at the company's
price and the bidding commenced.
The first lots offered, a pair of re-
sidence sites, were quickly sold at $50 ad-
vance on the marked price. Then a
choice double business lot was put up,
H.cf hair ha VIC
of 1926. In less than five minutes it was
knocked off at $770, the purchaser being
Mr.. Jos. E. Thropp, of Philadelphia, the
President of the Iron Gate Co. From
that the bidding became lively, and a
half dozen eager purchasers were clamor-
ing for recognition by the auctioneer at
once. The business lots were quickly
sold, some bringing $50 per cent above
| the schedule rating. Toward the last,
when the choice business lots offered had
all been disposed of the bidding became
less active, and at o'clock closed. The
aggregate sales reached $42, 5s5.
/ After the sale several lots changed
/ hands at an advance, and offers for
/ others were declined. The purchaser of
the highest price lot, $770, refused 5000
ca sh for it the next morning.
A gratifying feature about the sale
was that Immediately afterwards a num-
/ Der of contracts were closed for the cree
! ton of building. Stores. dwellings, shops
and business houses will be under con-
struction within the next week, and in
thirty days a miniature city will have
sprung into existence.
The wisdom of planting industries in
advance of sale of lots has been demon
strated in the policy adopted by the Iron
Gate Co. A substantial basis for a town
was laid before investment was invited.
Already the rolling mill and hotel are
under construction; the stove works will
be commenced in a few days. and other
industries will shortly follow. The COM
pany purposes to push forward adding
industry to industry, until a solvent man
ufacturing town is established. 1t has
never undertaken to "boom,n its object
being to lay the foundation of safe, reli-
able investment, by utilizing the remark
able natural advantages which surround
the place, and availing of the opportun-
ity afforded by the large iron trade al
ready established in the immediate vi

McKinly and Reed.

1t is given out in the newspapers that
Congressman Mckinley and Reed will
participate in the Virginia canvass in
behalf of the Norfolk nominee for Gov
ernor 1t is possible they have been re-
quested to do so, and it may be that they
have concluded to address the people of
this State, as they would the Republi-
cans of any other State where Republi-
can issues were involved. But they do
not understand the situation in Virginia.
Republican issues are not at stake. 1t
is simply question whether Malone is
to rule the party with rod of iron, and
if elected to govern the State as his
personal property. Malone represents
only Mahoneism in this contest. His
election would be the most disastrous evil
that could occur for genuine Repub-
licanism in the State and Nation, and
would be the endorsement and util
izing of an influence that both McKin-
ley and Reed have been warning against
all their lives. Malone cares nothing
for the Republican party, except the
SELFISH use lie Cdll IIltht VI IL. u H1CSS
success would give him power, he would
prefer that the party should be de-
feated. The only principle he recognizes
is that of ''rule or ruin The people of
Virginia understand this, and will never
by their votes place in his hands the
control of their interests and their des-
tiny.
We are sure that neither of the distin
guished gentlemen mentioned will allow
himself to become a party to a contest
that if successful would so disastrously
affect the interests of the Republican
party of the State, and inject into the
national contest hereafter an influence
that would prove equally disastrous to
the party throughout the country. They
are Republicans from principle, and can
not afford to become identified with
Gen. Mahone's political schemes, or be
beguiled into the support of a move
ment that means nothing but harm to
the Republican party of the State and
Nation

Philadelphia Telegraph Rep.eEx-
LIEUTENANT-GOvE Lewis is the
latest Independent Republican to join
the growing revolt in Virginia against
Malone. No man in the State better
knows what the issues of the present
contest are, land no one is more thorough
ly fitted to take an active part in the
work of stamping out the odious leader
who seeks to make the Republican party
in that State simply servant of his
own wishes. 1t is no wonder the lead
ing Republican paper of the adjoining
State of West Virginia, and which is in
full sympathy with Malone, frankly de-
clares that nothing but miracle can
save him from crushing defeat. The
clouds are settling upon him all around
the horizon, and it is probable that a
hundred McKinleys and Reeds would
not now save him from disaster which
he has so richly merited.

Waynesboro Items.
Reported for the vIRGINIAN.]

The building trades have been very
active throughout the district during
the entire season; and the indications
are that the activity will be kept up
during the fall. EutZler & Bishop have
had several forces at work erecting
houses and barns. Mr. Perky has been
at Mr.. John Leonard's for the past two
weeks, framing and getting his barn
under roof. Mr.. Perky, with his gang,
does all the framing, he being an expert
barn Trainer. He will move his force in
few days to Mr.. Luther Leonards on
the OFT place. Mr.. Richie, from near
Bridgewater, has Mr. James Lobban's
barn nearly completed The tin roof has
been laid upon the hotel in Waynesboro
by J. w. Rodes. r. G. Wright has his
house we'll under way. Lambert Bros.
are doing the work. Mr.. Geo. X. Conner
will repair the Peter Hanger house, and
probably move into it this fall.
On last Saturday Tammany was con
siderably taken back, the district con-
stituency showing them under complete
lv in their choice of delegates to the
county convention. Its backbone has
been broken, and it is not now likely
to figure in politics as prominently as
heretofore.
Since the retiremeet of M. l.. Leonard
from the Office OF magistrate, the people
who must needs go to law, have been
greatly Inconvenience. There is no
magistrate except Mr.. Churchman in
the district, above Barterbrook.
We learn that the Honorable Judge of
the County Court will be petitioned to
appoint one for the District at Waynes-
boro.
DR.. j. S. Myers is now acting in that
capacity as mayor of Waynesboro, and
no doubt would fill the place of magis-
trate as well. Let him be appointed.
There has been more dust upon the
ing the entire summer. That has now
been thoroughly laid in the timely rain
of Friday. Some farmers are not yet
through blowing, and it was becoming
very laborious upon the teams. The
acreage put in wheat will be up to the
average. Most of our farmers are taking
pains to prepare a thorough seed bed.
Seeding will commence this week by a
few, but it will not be general until the
week following.
Very little is being said about the
| coming fair in October.
The management should exert them
selves to secure a creditabe display. In
some respects the policy of the past
should be abandoned, and a new policy
adopted more in accord with the matured
advancement of the District. To make
the race track one grand feature of the
show, will no longer attract the influ-
ence of those who aim at more substan-
tial things. This county especially is to
very limited extent interested in the
breeding of fast trotters. 1t is however
largely interested in good, strong, able
bodied farm horses. Study the lines of
improvement in your District, and aid
those lines in the management of the
Fair and it will be a grand success.

The Case of Langston.

Prof. J. M. Langston, the Republican
candidate for Congress in the 4th dis
trict at the last election. and who is a
contestant for the seat awarded his
Democratic opponent, Mr.. Venable, has
come out in a letter in which he an
nounces his purpose to support Gen. Ma
hone for Governor The 4th district is
Republican by about 5000 majority
Langston was the choice of large ma
iority of the Republican voters, and
was regularly nominated in Convention
as the Republican candidate for Con
gress. Gen. Malone opposed his aspira-
tons, and manipulated to have another
candidate DR.. Arnold, to announce him
self as a candidate, also. Arnold received
about 9. 900 votes, and Venable was de-
clared elected. How it was that ma
jority of 5000 could be reversed is not
plain to the ordinary layman. But
Langston does not believe the result was
honestly reached and consequently has
instituted a contest, taken voluminous
evidence, and is prepared to go before
the next Congress, confident that he can
make out his case to the satisfaction of
all impartial men. His case is made up
principally by exposing the methods and
assailing the action of Gen. Malone, by
which he claims he was defeated.
In announcing his purpose to sup
port the General for Governor, he ac-
companies it with the demand that the
National Committee, the administration
of President Harrison. the two Republi-
can members of Congress from Virginia,
the State Central Committee, of which
Gen Malone is chairman, and all the
Republican influence of the State shall
come to his aid in his contest.
1t is not stated whether or not Gen.
Malone was consulted before this letter
was given out, or in it's publication. 1t
/ is not believed by those who know him
that he was, and that he would place
/ himself in such an awkward position as
his support of Langston would involve.
1t would be equivalent to admitting all
that Langston charges against him as
having been done to defeat, if not
defraud him out of what was fairly
his. If Langston's case is made up OF
such evidence, as it is stated it is, then
Gen. Malone would be endorsing a Sc
we're Indictment against himself in ia
voring Langston's claim to the seat in
Congress which has been awarded Ven
able, and pillory himself as having been
guilty of perpetrating frauds to defeat
the regular nominee of his own party
This he will not do, nor do we believe
the influence Langston invokes will
come to his assistance. 1t is a tangled
up situation, and we do not believe that
the outcome of it will work to Lang
ston's advantage.

elaborate and profuse preparation for an
interesting and historical event. She
was dressed in her Sunday clothes from
crown to toe, and tens of thousands of
people filed the streets to show their in
