A Pitiable Story.

Deputy Sheriff Webber, Of Salem, Roam
oke county, tells the pitisble story OF Mrs.
Jane Underwood. who has bean twice pa
tieDt In the lunatio asylum at Staunton and
is again 10 tho Salem ali waiting to be sent
to that or some other asylum. He says:
Mrs. Underwood is about sixty years old, and
has been living at finder Creek, in this county,
for many yesrs. In the fall Of 1861 she married
Ely Tasker, who in the spring Of '62 entered the
confederate army. While he was away she wrote
repeatedly to him begging him to come home,
which he did, and was caught each time, and the
third and last time he was courtmartisled and Or
dered to be shot. His wife being apprised Of the
fact went 10 see President Davis, and after much
earnest work succeeded in obtaining reprieye,
and started for the camp ground, then many
miles from Richmond. Travelling in those dark
dark days was slow and uncertain, and after a
long journey by stage she arrived, worn out with
fear, grief and fatigue, just fifteen minutes too
late for there, lying on the camp ground were five
dead bodies and amongst those five was the still
warm corpse Of her husband, with the blood
trickling slowly from several of the cruel wounds
made by soldiers bullets With wild shrek
she recognized her dead husband, and in frantic
grief threw herself upon his body, unmindful Of
the blood which stained the white apron she
wore. After few minutes she was led away
and sent to her home, where for long time
her life was despsired Of by her many friends
Long months passed ere her reason returned, but
after few years she married her present hus-
band, since which she has had several relapses at
intervals and has been sent to the asylum in Staun-
ton twice and Marion once, and is now await
ing vacancy in one Of the asylums. Mrs. Un-
derwood is not inclined to be violent but tears at
her clothing trying ince.ssntly to remove the i'm
aginary blood of her husband which her disordered
mind leads her to fancy still stains her gsrmente

Some Successful Young Men.

ATLANTA, Aug. l0.-Young men through
out the country are at the head of vast
business enterprises and occupy positions
of trust and confidence in both civil and
official life. In Greenville, Ga, one of the
most progressive towns in the state, the
young men have it all their own way, and
the confidence reposed in them was evinced
in the latest municipal election. Think of
it. J. R. Terrell is at twenty-five mayor
of his native city. He graduated in his
nineteenth year from Mercer university,
and two years later was admitted TO the
bar. There his powers were revealed in
his forceful reasoning and rare forensic
eIoquence. Mayor Terrell is a tall, good
looking, beardless blond. Associated with
him are six councilmen whose average age
is thirty years.
In the Atlanta Federation of Trades
an organization representing 600 laboring
men-the officers are all young, and its
1ourishing condition proves that brains
are here allied to youth and muscle. The
president, George W. Morgan, is but TWEEN
ty-four of years age; Vice President Rich
ard l.. Samuels twenty-five, and Financial
Secretary Lon KimbaIl twenty three.
