InsurInn Debtors Lives.

The fashion of insuring the life of a
debtor in favor of his creditor, at the lat
ter's expense, of course, is just beginning
to take hold in New York. In England it
has been known for Il couple of hundred
years. When trading vessel, in the olden
times, was about to set sail on perilous
voyage, not only was the ship insured in
favor of the owner, but the captains life
US we'll. The captain himself was, in such
cases, a partner in the venture, and to the
extent of his partnership debtor of the
owner
One of the best known restaurateurs in
the country owes wine importing house in
New York the tidy sum of Sl4, GOO for goods
had and received. The agent of the wine
house made an offer, after fruitlessly trying
for several years to collect the debit to in
sure his creditors life in his (the agent's)
favor, not long ago, but the proposition
was met with an indignant refusal.-New

embracing 16 acres, are handsomely laid
off and adorned, and afford ample facilities
for recreation and amusement. The pho
tographic views presented in these columns
can give but a feeble and imperfect repre-
sentation ofthe magnifcence of the pros
pect, which captivates by its beauty and
grandeur all who have visited the school.
Ample grounds are set aside for base ball,
foot ball, drill and parade.
The design of this School is to offer such
thorough instruction in the prominent and
important branches ola liberal education
as will enable the student to enter the high
er classes of our universities. The success
which those pupils have won who have at
tended the University Of Virginia, or Wash
ington & Lee University, or received ap-
pointments at Annapolis and West Point,
gives assurance of the character of this
preparation. Yet recognizing the demand
for course of study for large class of
boys whose opportunity for education will
and must be limited to the Academy, a
course of study has been adopted which is
intended to fully meet this demand, and
which is believed to be surpassed by no
other school in the South.

tailor-made goods of Jacob Reeds
Sons, the well-known and reliable tail

as merchant tailors. The detachable
umbrella cover of F. P. Robinson &

made from all varieties of fabrics and
can be put on old frames in three min
utes. 1t should be seen for its merits
to be fully appreciated. Mr.. Wood
ward is sole agent for this useful ar
ticle. He has added to his stock this

Atwood Suspender, the best in the
market. Latest style of hats in Der

Mr. Woodward has by his strict at
tention to the wants of the public and
uniform square dealings, placed him
self in the foremost ranks of the ac-
tive, energetic and progressive bust
ness men of this city. He is honora-
BILE in all the methods and gentleman

WHEAT & SUMMERSON,

STAPLE AND FANCY GROCERIES.
Prominent among those who make
up the financial strength and mercan-
tile ability of this city are the members
of this popular firm-C. c. Wheat and
ii. E. Summerson.
The business was first established by
Mr. Wheat in 1875. In May, 1850, Mr..
Summerson withdrew from the firm
of Eakle & Summerson, of which he
had been a member, and formed a
partnership with Mr.. Wheat, since
which time they have successfully
conducted the grocery business at No.
II, east Main street, under the firm
name of Wheat & Summerson.
By strict attention to the wants of
their patrons, coupled with a high
quality of goods at the lowest possible
prices, have succeeded in building up
a trade second to none of their line in
the city. The premises occupied by
this firm are centrally located, and of
ample size, consisting of a two-story
brick building and basement, which
are used as sale and store rooms. The
stock carried consists of staple and
fancy groceries, spices, coffees, teas,
country produce, and in fact, every
thing kept in well ordered grocery
store. A specially is made of fancy
groceries and cotliments, which are
displayed in style that is at once
tasteful and attractive. The stock is
large and consists of canned preserves,
such as peaches, Strawberries, apples,
blackberries, raspberrlcs, cherries, jel-
lies, potted fowl and game, imported
and domestic pickles and chow chow.
Mr.. Wheat is native of Maryland,
but has long been resident Of Staun-
ton and is thoroughly identified with
the interests of the city. He is Dep
uty Grand Master of the Grand Lodge
of Virginia, l. O. o. F.. as we'll as p.
N. 6. of Staunton Lodge No IS. Mr..
Summerson was born in Virginia, and
is well and favorably known through
out this section. Both members of the
firm are true types of Virginias' bust
ness men and hold the entire esteem
of the community i'll which their bus
mess establishment is credit.

FRANK T. WARE.
VARIETIES.


One of the most extensive and best
conducted business houses we know
Of in this line, is that of Frank T
Ware, located at No. 81 N. Augusta
street. The store is stocked with q
large assortment of the very best quail
ity of cooking and heating stoves
together with everything in the furni-
ture line that the most fastidio,ls
housekeeper may desire, as we'll as a
carefully selected stock of crockery
glassware, woodenware, willowware
etc, all quoted at prices which, quality
considered, can seldom be duplicated
elsewhere. The proprietor gives the
business his personal attention, which
together with honest dealing and the
general merit of the goods offered has
built for him large and lucrative
trade,

HEALTH AND COMFORT.

HEALTH AND COMFORT.
Great attention is paid to the health
and comfort of the young ladies. Fol
this purpose one or more matrons are
employed whose special duty it is to
look after the health and guard the
comfort of pupils at all times, and ir
sickness or in health they receive the
same kind attention here as they would
enjoy in their own homes. In fact
the pupils who come to this school all
testify that they find it kind and
happy home. This college enjoys q
national reputation and is patronized
by Is States of the Union and its pa
irons and friends are found in all these
States and to whom the school can re-
fer with confidence.
In regard to the terms, few schools
if any, North or South offer, we think
such advantages for such moderate
charges. Any one who wishes to send
his daughter to good school with
thorough teaching and no extrava-
GRANGE, will do well to consider the adj
vantages which this school offers.
During the last session, the school
was attended by about 1873 boarding
pupils, from various States in the I'm
ion, and in the early part of the ses,
sion every available place for pupils
Was filled. AS the number of Board
ing pupils cannot go beyond this mum
Der. we would suggest that parties who
desire places in this school should
write their attendance in Advance

Why9the Story Was Not Finished.
We were in the smoker of train from
the north and were listening to u good story
from companion when suddenly the laugh
died away and a grim silence and sober
ness crept over the jovial party. A glance
from the window explained the sudden
change There lay before us the soft, green
surface of the Sister cemeteries. Grave
stones, slabs and monuments thrust their
cold, hard surfaces into solid relief. Stretch
ed at full length upon a near by mound
was the figure of a girl in black. Not ten
feet distant were three young women in
mourning kneeling beside newly made
grave. The train whizzed past, but the
story was never finished. Albany Argus.

STAUNTON MILITARY ACADEMY.
But a few years since this institution
was organized by its present Principal,
Capt. VIM. H. Kable, of Charlestown, W.
Va. A large property in the usburbs OF
the City, most suitably located, with ex-
tensive grounds and commanding views,
were purchased, and number of large
buildings, barracks, a Study Hall, etc.,
was at once erected. The school opened
its first session in September, 1884, under
the most favorable and encouraging clr-
cumstances-several of the States then
being represented. Now it has become a
we'll known institution throughout the
South and numbers among its cadets young
men from nearly every State. On the
opening days of its two last sessions, SO
many had applied for admission that every
dormitory was filled, and though large
additional buildings had been erected dur
ing the summer, were yet unable to meet
SO great demand. The buildings them
selves are modern in all their appointments,
heated by steam, supplied with gas, water,
bathing rooms with hot and cold water,
etc. While as to healthfulness, the location
is proverbial. Students from the malarial
districts of the South quickly give evidence
of the health restoring influence of the eli
mate. Situated on one of the most beau
tiful hills surrounding the city, 200 feet
above its lowest level, it is thus placed I,
