a popularity of people in Texas to de-
nonnce opposition as abuse. The Post
must have observed the ''littIe tin
Jesus" style of many people in Texas.
What is called opposition in other states
is styled abuse in Texas. This is due to
the big head consequent, doubtless, on
life in q state SO vast in area and having
such immense majorities. Texas is quit e

LYNcBuRG. Va, October 27.-A young
named J. ID. Hopkins about twenty-five
years of age, arrived here yesterday eve
ming on the Norfolk and Western road
in a terrible condition. He stated that
he was originally from MayO's Forge,
Patrick county, but had been at work
few miles from Bluefeld for year past.
About two months ago while at work IN
a stone quarry for man named Welty
he met with an accident by cavern OF
a high bank, whereby his right thigh
was fractured and he was otherwise ter
ribly bruised and internally hurt He
was placed under the charge of man who
ran q camp clearinghouse and local
physician attended him for six weeks.
DESERTED AND LEFT ALONE.
About that time work in the quarry
gave out. and all those who had been
living in the vicinity, including his land
lord, left the place, and all deserted him.
He was thus left alone, and but for tho
kindness of man. who accidentally
found him after he had been without
food or drink for several days, he would
have undoubtedly starved to death.
GOOD sAMABITANs.
The man who found him made tho
matter known to a Catholic priest, and
together they enlisted the sympathies of
the people, and they raised sufficient
money TO send him to his home. He
arrived here in a baggsge-car and was
well taken care OF while he laid over
awaiting the Richmond and Danville
train. Hopkins's condition excited uni
versal sympathy. and he told of his terri
BILE experience in very straightforward
way.
COW AND THE ENGINE.
I A very strange accident occurred at
an early hour Sunday morning in the
Norfolk and Western yards on the
Southside island just below the city.
Eight cars OF cattle were unloaded in
order to give them water. One of the
largest cows in the herd became fright
ened and ran headlong down the track
near the end OF the island. She came
into collision with a yard-engine with
such force as to literally tear her own
head off and the engine was deraied and
turned in directly the opposite direction
from that which it was running when the
collision occurred.
TIE BEAUTIFUL SNOW.
Some of the highest peaks of the Blue
Ridge mountains were white with snow
this morning and the weather is very

The campaign for General Lee in this

vim. but still there's great lack OF interest
in the people at large, which Is hard to
Ina accounted for, and the fear is that or
eIection-day there will not be a good
,nrn.orlt and large vote polled How
ever. the county is very strong for
General Lee. The negroes take no IN
terest whatever and many are going 20
vote for Lee. The northern end IL
practically a unit rs far as the white
neople are concerned, tho majority OF
the white Republicans having declared
for Lee. The only Hume strength lies
in tbe lower end Of the county. whore
some dissatisfaction for Lee is known 70
