WYTuEvILLE, March "a Speciall-
This morning, just before leaving for
Pulaski, Judge Williams refused to set
aside the verdict rendered by the jury
in tho case of Carrico vs.. tho Bertha
Zinc Company, on the motion made last
night by tho defense. The Judge dc.
| livered an opinion of some length and
cited the authorities which sustained
the verdict. The case will no doubt be
carried up to the court Of appeals and
considerable litigation lies yet between
the plaintiff and his money.
The Feagles trial will occupy the
court in Pulaski, and as jury is to be
impaneled out of the county and all the
evidence on either side reviewed, the
case will excite much interest.
Every extended term of court held in
the Wythe county courthouse brings
home to the public in a personal and en-
phatic manner, tho crying neod OF the
county for a new courthouse. inc
present courthouse is SO crowded, SO
badly arranged, so poorly lighted and
so badly ventilated that the business OF
tho court is hindered and hampered,
and the health and the lives OF the jury,
tho lawyers and the judge jeapordlzed.
DR.. John Graham was on yesterday
making some chemical experiments to
test the atmosphere of the court
room, and 1t is to be hoped
that he will publish the result and
arouse the county commissioners to
their criminal negligence in allowing
the public to be poisoned by forcing
them to breathe the foul atmosphere of
the present courthouse. Wythe county
is not so poor that she need submit to
being disgraced by her public buildings.
A warm rain last night washed away
the snow. and the mild, mosit atmos-
phere and the twittering of the birds
to-day suggest that spring is on the way.
The PresbY terian Church has not yet
called a pastor in place of the Rev. Il.
M. Mcconnell, who recently accepted a
call to South Carolina, but is making
arrangements to do so very soon. In
the meantime the pulpit is supplied each
Sabbath either by visiting ministers or
by Rev. j. H. Alexander, president Of
Plummer College.
Daily Lenten services are being held
in st. Johns Episcopal Church.
John FL. Caldwell, of the Montgomery
Messenger, is visiting friends in Wythe-
Vile.
Miss Daisy Dew left for Richmond yes
terday.
Frank Goodwin, who has been very
i'll, is somewhat better.
w. S. Poague is out again, after an
illness of three months, and is looking
much better than his friends expected
to see him.
The unusual amounto of sickness, which
has been chiefly due to grip and its COM
plications, so prevalent here all winter.
is much abated, and the opening up of
spring will no doubt herald social, as
Well as business and physical revival.

The rainmdkAlg craze has about run
its course. In little while it will be
laid away on shelf with the blue grass
craze, the Brown-Sequard elixir and the
Kelley cure. After five days OF futile
effort, representatives of the Goodland
artificial rain company, of Kansas,
packed up their traps and left Hermota,
! South Dakota, without taking with
them the $500 that was to reward a sue
cessful demonstration. Within that
period the conditions were exception
ally favorable. The air was charged
with moisture and electricity, and rain
fell at various points in the surrounding
country, but none where it had been
contracted for. and although the rain
makers demanded pay for the distant
showers, the people of Hermota quite
effectively replied that they were not
buying rain for other communities.

avenue Nov. II, 1891, while the fire de-
partment had Il section of hose stretched
across the street railway tracks, car
was run over the hose, running two Sec
tions." The plaintiff has demanded
payment for the hose, and as the de-
mands have been refused, the suit for
$50 damages is a matter of principle.

The Desperate Run Down.
When word reached this city of the rob
berry officers were sent in pursuit. 1t was
very difficult to obtain conveyances to pur-
sue the fellow, but he was located and
chased into swamp. During the pursuit
the robber obtained horses easier than the
officials for when any one refused he drew a
gun" and enforced his demand-wouldn't
take no for an answer. When he was finally
corraled the officers expected to have a
dangerous job, but he surrendered without
trouble. He had three revolvers and l0C
cartridges on his person and has been
identified as Perry, who robbed the express
last September at Utica, and for wht N
there is a reward of 81 900.
