INSPECTION TRIP.
4 Run over the James River Branch
Yesterday Morning.

l
Yesterday Morning.
MI. I. l.. Courtney, superintendent Of the
Richmond, Fredericksburg and Potomac
railroad, ran an inspection train over the
James river branch OF that rOad yesterday.
Invitations for the trip were only given 10
q few, and a more than usually pleasant
morning was passed. The party was COM
posed of Major Il. 4. u. Myers, president NJ
the road; Mr.. Il. J.. Courtney, superinten-
dent; Mr.. William II. StrattOn, contracting
freight agent; Mr.. Warren =. Taylor.
chief clerk 10 the traffic manager;
Mr.. j. B. Winston, treasurer; Mr., VI.
NJ. Robinson, road master OF the
Coast Line, Mr.. <. Il. Rice, road carpenter,
Captain John Cussens, Of Glen Allen sew
eral employees of the company, and repre
sentatiyes of the Manchester and city pa
pers. The start was made from Elba about
10 O'clock. After stopping at the shops and
viewing the objects Of interest under the
guidance of Major Myers, the train proceed
ed to "Acca," which is the Junction of the
new branch with the main line.
Acca was originally Branches Crossing,
and the new name is given in honor of Mr..
Preston Belvin's large stock farm which is
situated near there.
The length Of the James river branch is
nearly eight miles, and some OF the scenery
along It's line is indeed beautiful, especially
the approach TO the river. Whenever any
thing of special interest was seen the train
was stopped, and time given the party TO
fully investigate II.
About midway across the bridge all left
the train SO as to get Il better view Of the
massive structure aud of the river scenery.
The connection with the Petersburg road is
called "CloptOn," and derives its name
from the farm Of the popular Chesterfield
nudge. After spending some time at this
point the engine was reversed and the train
backed over the line 10 the starting point
While on the return trip a table was extern
poriLed, and cOlored Prank" catered
handsomely TO the Palates of all on
board. The track was found in
excellent condition and the road-eed solid
and well ballasted. so rural is the aspect
of the country through which the branch
line runs that stranger would never
suppose he was anywhere in the vicinity
OF city.
The James River branch will be opened
for traffic sunday night. Train No. 20S, Of
the Atlantic Coast Liue dispatch, will be
the first To pass over II.

Committee Appointed To Take the Matter
In Hand.
At the meeting of the Richmond Light
Infantry Blues Association on last Tues
day night, resolution was adopted re-
questiug Major b. w. Richardson, the pres
ldent OF the Association, 10 appoint COM
mitt to devise the roper ways and means
20 create a fund for the erection Of an
armory for the company. Major Rich
ardsOn mas Just made the appoint
ment, and the Association is repre-
scented on the committee by the iol-
lowing: Colonel j. Bell Bigger, Frank +.
Burke, Lieutenant W. ;. Dashiell, Captain
William J. Epps, Lieutenant Thomas \.
Page, Isaac New, an. The members OF he
company on the committee are Captain sol
Cutchins, Lieutenant {. +. Heinrich, SER
geant William b. rzzini, Private +. NJ
Woon.
Private james :. lIazon has been re-
Quesfed 10 act as secretary 10 the commit
tee. The latter will hold its first meeting
al the office of Captain Cutchns IN the
Shafer building tomorrow evening at y
O'Clock.
The selection OF the several members Of
the committee is considered very good one,
and the prospect for raising the desired
funds seems 10 be very bright. Some Of the
members OF the committee have already re-
ceiyed assurances OF earnest support irom
parties whom they least suspected to take
enough interest in the plaDed enterprise
AS 10 offer their financial assistance.
One OF the suggestions 10 be considered
by the committee will be 10 ascertain how
many members of the Association and OF
the COMPANY are willing TO pledge certain
amounts AS annual contributions 10 the
building fund for the next i've years. IL is
also very probable that the committee Will
recommend 10 hold bazaar this spring I'M
mediately after the ladies Of the Woman's
Christian Association have closed their fair.

Many States provide by state appropria-
ton for holding institutes or summer train
ing schools for teachers. Virginia, how
ever, makes no such provision, but the
Board OF Trustees Of the Peabody Education
Fund, through Hon. j. l.. NJ. .turry. general
agent of the fund. appropriates a fund for
the purpose of maintaining institutes IN
Virginia every year. These institutes are
held during the vacations of the schools.

ford facilities for The Improvement Of teach
ers who nave not had the benefit of special
professional training in regular Normal

Ii is probable that three Of these summer
