Of Woodstock, Va, was found dead In a ditch
along side the railroad there, about noon yes
terday, with his skull crushed a large hole on
the left temple aud about dozen smaller
bruises on his body. 1t is supposed that the

liquor, and had fallen into deep sleep or
stupor while sitting on tie and in that con-
dition was struck and killed His head was
terribly crushed and his body bruised When
found by a colored man several hours after
the train had passed, he was lying in the
snow and water in ditch alongside the

inquest which, after hearing evidence of
about dozen witnesses, rendered the follow

death by being struck by passing Baltimore

WARWICK, ALEXANDRIA Co., ' a.,
November 18th, 1892
To tie Editor Of the 4ierGndria Gazette:
To the card in your issue of the 18th
inst, signed by one ID. n. Rust, | would
make no reply, as nothing he might say
as touching the rules Of right conduct
of free-born American citizen, or other
gentleman. would weigh anything with
me, or with any others who know him
as do, were it not that | feel under
some obligations 10 those who were my
friends when was before them in a
public capacitya few years ago. Recog-
nizing, therefore, the claims of sucl
friends, | will repeat what they all
probably knew before election day, as I
have never hesitatcd to avow it when
occasion required, since Mr.. Cleveland
and his Secretary of the Interior show
cd that their idea of the only claim any
one from the southern States who was
an Confederate private soldier had
upon his administration was to walk up
and vote for him. This | say, and for
other personal reasons which | have
cause to consider have given me no spe-
cial love for Mr.. Cleveland. In fact, l
have thought over the matter SO much
that nothing, so long as he entertains
the opinion above alluded TO, could
make me love him. Believing, further,
that he is the best citizen who obeys
the dictates Of his own conscience, ] on
election day exercised the right Of a
free American citizen and voted for
neither Mr. Cleveland nor Mr.. Halri-
son, but did vote for Mr.. E. z. Mere
dith. FRANK HUME.

PEARLS WoRTn a MILL1oN.-The

PEARLS WORTH a MILLIoN.-The
most curious among famous pearls, ac-
cording to the Pdii-lfdN Budget, is
that which three centuries ago the
French traveller, Tavernier, sold to the
Shad of Persia for $4,000. 1t is still
in the possession of the sovereign OF
Persia. Another Eastern potentate
owns pearl of 12l carats, which is
quite transparent. 1t is to be had for
the sum of 100000. Princess Yous-
soupoff has an Oriental pearl which is
unique for the beauty of its color.
In 1920 this pearl was sold by GeOrg-
ibus of Calais to Philip " of Spain at
the price of $4,000 ducats. To-day it
is valued at S225. 900. Pope Leo Nil,
again, owns pearl left to him by his
predecessor on the throne Of st. Peter
which is worth 100000. and the chain
of thirty-two pearls owned by the En-
press Frederick is estimated at $l15,-
600. One million dollars is the price
of the five chains OF pearls forming the
collier of the Baroness Gustave de
Rothschilds. and that of the Baroness
Adolphe de Rothschild is almost as
valuable. Both these ladies are en-
thusiastic collectors Of pearls, and their
jewelers. have instructions TO buy for
them any pearl of unusual size or beau
ty which they may happen to come
across.
The sister of Nine. Theirs, Mile.
Dosne, is also the owner of q very val
liable string of pearls. which she has
collected during the last thirty years.
OF so-called black pearls the Empress
of Austria possesses the most valuable
collection.
A story is told of the actress, Mile.
Marie Magnier and her pearls One
day, as she was about to appear on the
stage somebody made the remark that
her pearls were really of an enormous
size. sit is true" she replied. "The
lady whom l represent on the stage no
doubt wore small pearls in her life.
But what can ] do? 1 have no small
pearls.n

In ADDITION to the Force bill and
tariff, and the newspapers which ex-
planned them, great help was extended
the democrats last Tuesday by the
many restless and dissatisfied people in
the country, who thought that while no
change in the administration of the
government could be worse for them,
any change might be better.

A NOBLE QUARTETTE-Four brothers came
from Washington Tuesday. Each carried a
fragrant bouquet in his hand. They cast no
glance toward the old home. for they knew
strangers filled it. On and ON they trod,
passed familiar haunts. till they reached
Gods Acre" A year ago they placed
Mother there, with cold hands crossed above
her pulseless breast. Each pinned his flow
ers there on her little mound amid the dying
grass, and then sadly turned away. An hour
later they were all 1T the polls with ballot in
hand for Cleveland. Stevenson and Meredith.
Who would presume to challenge their right ?
Homes where the heart is and they had
proven where theirs was. Such men are the
strength of the Republic. We are pleased
they are observation-disclosures Tirginian.

WHITELAw REID seems to think thu

and he is busy Haunting it. He makes
jeff Davis the issue. Poor old jeff For
few years before he died he was neglect
ed by the politicians. He ceased to at
tract attention in campaigns and he, no
doubt, keenly felt being ignored. Now
that he is dead and can reap no satisfac-
ton from his restoration to position OF
prominence, Whitelaw Reid again pre-
sents the remains of the "dear departed
to the people of the country as an issue
worthy of their consideration. 1t is too
bad that grave yards should be made to
yield material for campaign purposes,
either in the shape of Jefferson Davis or
the B emmett law.

The church in its various departments
will greatly miss the efficient aid given by
Mr.. Clyde Sedgwick who has left to take
course of law at Madison.
There is a new Endeavor Society in the
Methodist Protestant church at Yokoha-
ma, Japan.
A good point: A prayer meeting should
never be conducted. 1t is not machine
| to be run with belts and pulleys and
cranks. Let it be voluntary, spontan-
| eous."
Mr.. Whitelaw Reid was guest at the
| Christian Endeavor Convention in New
York and addressed the young people in
an acceptable speech. But he did not
understand those young people. They
never let slip chance of doing some
good. SO they sent petition to Mr..
Reid asking him to desist from the publ
cation of Sunday newspaper. Christian
Endeavor and Sunday paper may mingle
but they do not mix.-The InterOr.

DIR. JENKINS has acted with vigor in
dealing with the cholera IN New York. 1t
seemed cruel thing to keep the passen-
gers confined IN a steamship IN which
cholera had broken out, but the safety OF
the country demanded 1t. He has now
taken possession of an island known as
Fire Island. The passengers who have
not been exposed to the infection have
been landed there. The occupants OF
the island entered indignant protests but
they were of no avail, Jenkins is entitled
to credit for the vigorous and prompt
measures he has taken to prevent the
spread of the disease.
