great favorite. A man of extensive travel
and experience, brilliant conversational,
list and a genial disposition, his loss will
be seriously felt. The deceased was ma
tive Of Virginia and was highly con-
nected in the Old Dominion. An uncle
represents West Virginia at the present
time in the United States Senate. He was
an active member of the Masonic frater-
nifty, and the members of that order at
once took charge of the remains. Instruc-
tons have been received to ship the body

A most amusing occurrence broke in
upon the monotony of life here recently,
and although an inkling of the affair be-
come scattered through the population it
has not SO far blossomed forth in the local
papers. The joke is of such a titillating
character that those wholly in the secret
enjoy many hearty laughs over it. Re-
cently.the representative from this county,
with a zeal beyond all knowledge of the
wants of his constituents, introduced

dating legislator had not. divided the
county up into several districts to accom-
modate the candidates, for they were all
good, competent fellows, and it was hard
to choose. In the midst of this
uncertainty an attache of the land Office
was called away on business. The candi-
dates and their grooms at once jumped at
the conclusion that the federal ofice-holder

No paper can be published
without home patronage, and every
man is interested in keeping up q
home paper. If railroad or fac.
tory is wanted the newspapers are
expected to work for it. If a pub.

pose, the newspaper is called upon
for free notice. If any Of the So
cieties have supper or reception
of any kind, the newspaper is ex-
pected to give the necessary
notice. The newspaper must puff
the schools and everything else to
advance the interests of the bust,
ness men of the place, and then
give them handsome notice when
they pass away. And yet some OF
them do nothing to keep up home
