TILE srArE CONVENTION
The SILVER 8aen Control At ana Piace
40 HARRISON Electors i'm she Eleid
-NewiaIds for Congress.

-AeWiaHGS 1Of OOHSEtSS'
The Republican State Convention
which met in Reno last Wednesday
was largely composed of Repnbli-
cans who were in favor of taking
an Independent stand on the SILVER
question, and, therefore notin favor
of placing a Harrison Electoral
Ticket in the field. There were 50
of these kind Of men in the Con-
vention out of 1874 delegates. The
Convention was called to be held in
the Court House at Reno, where the
majority of the delegates met in the
afternoon and appointed committees
and then adjourned to meet Thurs
day morning at 1 o'clock.
The delegates to the Convention
who were in favor Of placing Har-
rison electors in the field, numbering
about 40, went to the Masonic Hall
in Reno and held a side-show of
their own.
Thursday morning the Regular
Republican Convention met at the
Court House, and after the reports
of the committees had been received
and acted upon nominated Hon. F.
G.. Newlands for Congress, and H.
L. Fish for long term Regent, and
G. E. Mack for short term Regent.
The nominations for Supreme Judge
and Presidential Electors were
passed.
Among the resolutions adopted
by the Convention were those con-
demning the administration Of Pres
i3ent Harrison on the silver ques-
ton, and demanding that silver be
restored to the place it occupied as
money before the demonstration
act of 1878; and in view of the un-
satisfactory attitude of President
Harrison on the paramount issue OF
the reconciliation of silver, the
Convention made no nomination
for Presidential Electors. The ac-
ton of the Senators and Represen-
tatives from Nevada in behalf of
silver were cordially endorsed, and
the efforts of the citizens of the
State to secure an air line railr BAD
from San Francisco to Salt Lake
were also heartily endorsed.
The following State Central Com
mittee was appointed;

Sent to the Grand Jury.

Sam Wilson the colored man who has been
helper at extra busy times in the Adams
EXPRESS Company's Office, and who some
weeks ago took advantage of his position to
steal two certified checks out of the safe,
as mentioned last week, was sent on to the
Grand Jury by Mayor Fultz last Friday.
Like most ignorant criminals, he thought
it would tighten his case to involve some
one else, and so made statement that Alex
Myers, the colored driver OF the express
wagon, had been his confederate. AS
Myers has been an honest employee of the
company for eighteen years without sus-
picion against him, and as he was in the
plot. of the officers of the company to catch
Wilson when he was caught, the thief's
statement carried no weight with it, either
to the court or to the officers OF the express
company.

DEATH OF A REMARKABLE OLD LADY

&C.
Reported for the Staunton VINDICAToR.]
SwooPR. March 22.-Mrs. Mary Leslie,
Familiarity known as ''old Aunt Polly Les
le,'' died last Saturday. She lived one mile
below Buffalo Gap ON the road to Church
vile. Aunt Polly'' had she lived Is days
longer would have rounded up her Goth
year. She was descended from the Crawfords
Of Colonial days. Her hearing was as acute
as that OF an Indian, and her eyesight as
clear as the gle's-never used glasses. She
was born in 1876; was Miss Crawford, and
was the last of her generation. Her grand
parents were maSsacred by the Indians on
farm adjoining her S owned now by MI
Christian Bear, and a rock pile still tells
where the house stood in which they lived
and where they were killed. There stands
an old rock wall between Rock Hill Mill
and Churchville, this was the old fort from
which they had gone in the morning to clip
the sheep on their farm. This party OF In
dians came up during the day and killed
both the old people, the rest escaped to the
fort.

their purchasing agent, M. l.. Leonard.
MI. John K. Rodgers shipped from this
station to Richmond Tuesday, cal OF I'M

MI. w. A. Freed is loading and shipping
his past seasons hay crop. This hay is
gilt edged and shows what pluck and an
indomitable will can accomplish. MI.
Freed came out of the war broken down in
health with one old horse and a seventy-fve
dollar debt. He took his wife and babies
and went on the farm he now occupies-as
his friends said to starve-but instead of
starving he has raised and educated a large
family, kept out of debt, brought his farm
to the highest state of fertility and added
other farms. What's the use Of going
West, why not emulate this example and
use pluck and push here in Virginia.
MI. David Coiner Of Long Meadows, is
also marketing his hay.
Rev. MI. Crickenberger, the new pastor
at st. James Lutheran church, reached this

AN EPIDEMIC OF MAD DOGS-CHURCH
SUPPER-SALE, &C.
Reported for the Staunton VINDIcAToR.1
MT. SoLoN, March 22.-The report that
great many dogs in the neighborhood of
Sangersville, Spring Greek, Bridgewater
and Mt. Crawford have shown symptoms
of rabies, has caused no little excitement
and great many people have killed their
dogs on this account, while others are hav-
ing them either penned Oh chained. One OF
our neighbours dogs showed symptoms OF
the disease a few days ago and wandered
off and has not been seen since. We hope
that the reports are not true, but will have
the good effect of killing out large portion
of the worthless ours that infest our com
munity.
The ladies of Mt. Scion held an oyster
and meat supper on last Friday night for
the benefit Of the M. E. Church, South, of
this place. AS usual the ladies spared no
pains to make the occasion success in
every particular. Mrs. Rush and Mrs.
Lizzie Hall had charge of the meat tables
which fairly groaned under the weight of
their tempting dishes, which were served to
their customers very literally. Mrs. Sallie
Bolen had charge OF the oysters. When an
oyster supper is spoken of here it is only
necessary for the people to know that Mrs.
Bolen is on the committee to draw crowd,
for if anybody can serve an oyster right it
is Mrs. 3. Refreshments were served by
Miss Elmyra Bolen, Miss Lille James and
Miss Herroll; music by Prof. Jas. I. Clark
il. The sum realized was very handsome
one and was more than asked for.
Mrs. Rebecca Messersmith was called to
Shendun on last Sunday, where her son
Brainard is very i'll with pneumonia.
Many years ago, when the town of Mt.
Scion was without a name and was grow
ing to be quite a village, small group of
our forefathers were seated at the old Inn,
when some one suggested name for the
then promising little village and they
agreed amongst themselves that they would
give 1t the name of Mt. Scion, after the
wise Greek And in this old village is
found another name of Greek origin, that
of ''Mt. Ida," the beautiful and stately old
home of the late J. J. Cupp, which name
was given in honor Of his oldest daughter,
s'Ida" AS Owen Meredith says, cold
things they cling, they cling;;" and so it is
with the people of Mt. Scion, as with sad
dened hearts we see the breaking up of this
home, one of the oldest and most hospitable
homes in this section of the county, which
took place on last Saturday, the day on which
the personal property of MI. Cupp was sold.
W remember IN the years gone by when
he with his noble wife and interesting fam
lily would open their hospitable home to all,
and when it's old halls rang with the merri-
ment Of the young.
