Especial telegram TO the Dispatch.l
LuRAY, Va, April 9.-The Republican
County Convention held here to-day to
appoint delegates to the district conyen-
ton to be held in Luray on the Sd day of
Nav next, and to the State convention,
which assemblies in Roanoke, Va. on the
5th of the same month. was one OF the
stormiest political gatherings that ever as
sembled In this county. Judge j. G.. New
man was elected chairman of the meeting.
and Mr.. G. L. Hoffman was made secre-
tary The following delegates were chosen
to represent the county in the conventions
named: j. w. Coverstone, g. M. keyser,
L. C. Stricken. II. NJ. Mayes, j. g. New
man. and ID. b. Snyder. Alternates, j. Nj.
Price, G. s. Foote, and N. L. Sedwick. The
delegates are favorable to the renomina-
ton of President Harrison.
BATTERED FACES.
At an early stage of the proceedings
some disturbance occurred, and Mr. G: Nj.
Strike was struck about the head and face
by several of the adherents of MIR. E. T..
Broyles. deputy collector of internal reve-
nue. for this district. One or two other
parties from the contending factions also
received blows about the heads and bodies,
and for time confusion reigned supreme.
REyoLyERs DRAWN.
II is also said that one or two parties
drew their revolvers in the midst of the
disorder, but no attempt. it seems. was
made to use them. After some time quiet
was restored and the convention soon CON-
pleted its work. though the followers of
MIR. Broyles took no further part in the
proceedings.
This afternoon two of the parties were
brought before the Mayor and fined for
disorderly conduct. No other arrests have
as yet been made.
AN OLD FUED.
The melee of to-day is the result of a
bitter fractional fight between opposing
elements in the Republican party in the
county Of some months duration, and
which led some time ago to the resigna-
ton of Mr.. L. L. Broyles as the chairman OF
the Republican County Committee and
the choice of ex-Judge j. q. Newman to
succeed him. Efforts have also been made
to dislodge Mr.. Broyles from his position
in the internal-revenue service, and his
opponents CLAIM that they will soon &C
complish this. Mr.. Broyles is young
man of energy and determination and will
make hard fight.

Too Much.

Mrs. ,Laverty, an Irish lady, who lived
thirty miles from the American Rich
mond, was in the provident habit Of
laying in store of groceries to last an
entire quarter, since she could not repair
to Richmond oftener than four times a
year. On one Of these provisioning ex-
petitions she laid in store of Matches
disastrous investment, since not a
match would strike. Wild was her fury,
which was kept alight and aglow by her
recurring daily trouble to get her fire
alight and aglow without match. Her
wrath, thus kept at boiling. point for
three months, gave the storekeeper a
hot quarter Of an hour, when she burst at
last into his store and Numbered down
the parcel of matchboxes upon the
counter. Having waited with defer
entail patience until the storm had spent
itself, he said suavely, "Allow me,
madam"
Taking matchbox from the parcel
and a match from the box, he struck it,
after the manner of men, upon his trous-
ers. 'See, madam he exclaimed in
SNUG triumph, holding up the kindled
match. "The divil fly away wild ye!"
shrieked Mrs. Laverty. do We think
that livery time I've fire to light I'll
thravel thirty miles to sthrike match

Wash Fruit Before Eating 1t.

The following curious instance is re
ported by NJ. Schnirer of the ease with
which consumption germs may be dis
seminated. While at work one day in
the laboratory of Weichselbaum, he
sent for some grapes to eat. The fruit
had been kept for some time in basket
outside the lavatory and was covered
with dust, so that the water in which it
was washed was black. On examining
it he reflected that, inasmuch as the
neighboring street was traversed by con
sumptive patients going to the clinic,
the dust probably was charged with
tubercle bacilli. To settle this, M.
Schnirer injected into three guinea pigs
ten cubic centimeters of water in which
the grapes had been washed. One ami
NAL died in two days from peritonitis,
the two others died ON the forty-eighth
and fifty-eighth days, respectively, pre-
senting marked tuberculous LESSONS,
especially at the place of injection.
The water in which the grapes had
been washed was taken from the faucet,
and the glass containing it had been
sterilized; neither the boy who had
bought the grapes, nor the merchant
who had sold them, was 'consumptive.
The cause of the infection was, beyond
doubt, the dust on the grapes. This ex-
from the dissemination of desiccated
tuberculous sputa in the air.-Hall's
Journal of Health.

A Gallant Irish Boy.

The biographer of General Crawford
tells the following story: During We'll
lington's campaign in the Peninsula, the
Light division was defeated by the
French under Marshal Ney, and forced
to retreat across river. A young sol
der from the north of Ireland, named
Stewart, was nicknamed THE Boy" as
he was only nineteen years of age and
Of gigantic stature.
He had fought bravely, and was one
of the last men who came down to the
bridge, over which the division was re-
treating. He refused to pass over, but
gazing at the French with a grim look,
said in loud voice:
$50 this is the end of our boasting.
This is our first battle, and we retreat!
The Boy. Stewart will not live to hear
that said"
Striding forward, he fell upon the adj
vancing Frenchmen with his bayOnet.
and died fighting.
Gallant, but rash!' the reader says.
Yes, but SO were the unyielding warriors
at Thermopyla.

The Street Band.

Il like the dashing csrnet and the
sprightly clarinet" said Colonel CALI
per, but like best of all that brass
fountain of cheerfulness, the big bass
horn. Care takes back seat when the
big horn sounds. 1t paints the. air red
and defes all creation, but it Is vastly
good natured withal, and it never fails
when its friends the cornet and the clari-
net pause for breath to come in with its
oomph-ah! oomph-ah! oomph-ah! pre-
serving the harmony unbroken.
Relieved from this duty, it rolls off
over the edge of a cliff and brings up
suddenly at the foot with tremendous
oomph! Rebounding, with dignity IN
ruffied, with undiminished vigor, and
with undimmed, inextinguishable and
overwhelming good humor, it losses off
sound in large decorative effects that
excite the wonder of every hearer and
fill every nearer with broad delight.
Just why the big bass horn is usually
played by short, stout man, while the
slender clarinet is played by a man who
is tall and thin is one of those things
that nobody knows. The time may
come, indeed, when the short, stout man
will play the slender clarinet and the
tall, thin man will play the big bass
horn; but by whomsoever it may be
played let US hope that the big horns
thunderous jollity will never be abated."

Ely Fishing.

There is no doubt that certain flies are
best adapted to different seasons, times
of day and conditions of weather, but a
dozen flies Of different names will fully
answer all of these requirements. An
anglers flies resemble nothing when cast
upon the water. They are simply a
something which attracts the trout
Color has more allurement than form,
and as there are not so many colors there
is 10 use for many flies. The general
rule is for light flies on dark days and
dark or darkish flies on light days. Sizes
are more to be considered than form
and mixture in makeup. 4 large trout
wants something worth his making an
effort to secure. 1t is doubtless true
that an arbitrary cast of flies cannot be
made up which will be adapted to all
waters.-Forest and Stream.

A Sort of Digital Depression.

Did you ever notice when a man
smites his thumb with a hammer while
putting down a carpet under wifely
supervision and criticism how quickly
he thrusts the bruised and throbbing
member into his ready mouth? People
think it is because the application is
soothing. But no; it is an involuntary
movement same as winking. The man
cannot help it. Nature knows what the
man would be apt to say under the cir
cumstances, and so she has provided
him with stopper and has ordained
that whenever he hits his thumb hard
enough to hurt-and it doesn't take very
much to nearly kill a man when he is
doing something he doesn't want TOBY
a sort of interlocking system the thumb
flies into his mouth and stops him up, Sc
that he can't say anything. Some mer
whom you and know should be pro
vided with an extra thumb which they
might carry about in their hand all the
time it wasn't In active use. 1t would
be great thing, wouldn't it?-Robert
j. Burdette in Ladies' Home Journal.

An Anecdote of Washington.

1t was while plunging through the
"leaden rain and iron hail" at the battle
of Monmouth that Washington's horse
was shot under him. The chief coolly
stepped from the PROSTATE charger, and
having received from the hands of an
attendant orderly fresh horse, ready
caparisoned, he turned to the sable body
servant who followed him close through
all dangers, and without the presence Of
whose ebon visage. q picture of Wash
ington and his family would not be
complete, and quietly said
Here, Billy, take the saddle from
that dead horse and look out for it. p"
And then he dashed away to direct the
planting of Oswald's battery.
"Golly!' exclaimed old Billy, as he
related the incident to one of the family
on his return home, "who ebber did see
such a man as Mas'r Washington? Who'd
ebber "a thought oh dat saddle but him:
l tell We, mas'r remembers eberyt'ing-
ebryt'ing down to de berry littlest. -

Washington's ETst Io.e Ah2if-
George Fairfax was the companion Of
Washington OH his surveying tour for
Lord Fairfax. Washington first met
Mrs. Fairfax at Belvoir, near Mount
Vernon, when she was brought home as
the bride of George William Fairfax.
Miss Mary Cary accompanied her sister
Sarah to Belvoir, and there met George
Washington She was then but four
teen years of age. Washington was
only sixteen. He had never visited the
low country near Williamsburg prior to
this, and therefore could not have met
Sarah Cary until her marriage. 1t is
said that he fell in love at sight with
Mary Cary, and went so far on his first
visit to Williamsburg as to ask Colonel
Cary for the hand of his daughter.
The big rawboned Lad found scant
favor in the eyes Of the patrician planter.
He was dismissed in terms SO curt that
we must bear in mind paternal pride
and other extenuating circumstances If
we would keep intact our idea of fine
old Virginia gentleman.
''If that is your business here, sir, l
wish you to leave the house! My daugh-
ter''-the swelling emphasis rumbles
down the corridor of years-''has been
accustomed to ride in her own coach"
Tradition asserts that the chagrined
sutton took the choleric parent at his
word, and that the next time he looked
upon the face of his early love was when
he passed through Williamsburg on his
return from Yorktown after the surren-
der of rnwallis.-Marion Harland in
Harper's Weekly.

He Gave Jrickey a story, but It Was n ot
the states Case.
The Boston Globes Borden expose and
the statement that the story was bought
from Detective McHenry Of this city was
the topic mentioned to the latter by a
NEWS reporter to-day. A call at the detec-
tive's bureau" on College street brought
it red face man in his shirt sleeves 10 the
door, which he unlocked cautiously.
What do YOU wantf" he asked.
Il wish to see Mr.. McHenry." replied
the reporter.
''Well. Pll see" said the fellow and he
showed the reporter up u dark stairway
20 Il room where n snail woman was ma
nipulating typewriter Oh a dining table.
Mciieury IA ID on u night shirt and
pair OF trousers and slippers. He said he
had read the Globe and also the Post. lie
said very drama icnlly that he had not
receive $500 from TrIckey aud that he
had not given away the governments
case in any particular.
He dId not deny that Trickey had been
t. see him, and said he had been there
seventy-fve times. After saying some
very uncomplimentary things about
Trickey he said no one had ever been
with him at any OF the interviews. and
that he knew Irickey too well for that.
He said he had advised the local repre-
sentative of the Globe TO keep out of it, rs
he didn't want him To yet "smirched,n
and that he didn't want 10 deceive any
local paper.
Mcilcnry said that he could not say
much about il until Marshal Hillarl WAS
at home, but insisted that he hadn't
given away the government case. The
Inference from what he sail was that he
had fixed up story to sell TO Trickey.
H. said TricIey had never sent him any
moLey.
As the News reporter was going down
stairs MclIenry ca al him back aud said
that his wife hal reminded him that
what he said about the money referred 10
the 800, and not To some other sum
whicn he might have re .cived, aud that
if Trickey got that sum from the Globe
he didn't spend it on him.
