have given the familiar and somewhat
affectionate title of "Old Wiscons," not

furnishing through its numerous tributa-
ries an outlet for thousands of acres of

a water power that is-second only to that

Phipps & Co., of Pittsburg, a lot of
maganiferous ore as a sample. The firm
had eleven analyses of the ore ade and

The VIRGINIAN was the first paper to

now it has the satisfaction of publishing
the result OF the experiment. Thus the

Gtaunton's New Paper.

The first issue of the new paper
Yost's Weekly-which was to be launch
ed by Major s. III. Yost. formerly owner
and editor of the VALLEY VIRGINIAN,
made its appearance last Thursday. 1t
is 32-column paper, and is nearly as
large as the VIRGINIAN. 1t is printed
from new type, and filled with interest
ing reading. The paper will advocate
Republican principles. and with the ac-
knowledged ability of Major Yost, will
soon take front rank among the infiuen-
tial papers Of the country. Mr.. L. A.
Fraser, veteran newspaper man, and
former editor of the Shendun Nesos, is
associated with Major Yost in it's publ
cation, under the firm name of "Yost &

our exchange list and wish it unlimited
success.

Circus Reflections.

The crowd in attendance at the Miles
Orion Circus on last Thursday was large
and well-behaved. Indeed, it speaks
well for our city that such a gathering
should be SO very orderly. Not the
least disturbance of any kind was made
by any one. The show was very good:
fully AS good as was expected; but was
cut somewhat short in the performance
by the sudden interference of the storm.
A dark cloud rolled up in the West and
with accum ulating fury made its way
directly for the big tent. Just as the
rain began to pour down in torrents
terrific gale crept under the canvas i'm
mediately in the rear of the reserved
seats. The big canvass began to flop
up and down, while tent poles and seats
were tumbing down in Wild confusion.
A stampede seemed inevitable, but the
great crowd controlled itself , after than
could have been expected anu without
any injury being sustained got itself out
from under the falling tent. 1t was not
long, of course, after the rush into the
storm until a great change came over
the appearance of the multitude: paper
collars melted, summer hats dropped,
white dresses wrapped themselves
around their wearers in most affection
ate EN- Drace, powder and paint van
ished, and everybody, through mud and
water, plodded his way homeward, with
4 crest-fallen expression upon his conn
ton hi fn wa
wasn't fool"
We've always been told that fish bite
better just after storm. 1t is certainly
30 with suckers" for if all reports be
true many a one WAS caught that even
ing It's not surprising that country
greenhorn or an unle tered youth should
occasionally be caught by the circus
fakir, but it is matter of establishment
that SO many people of mature years
who have seen so much of the world
SHOULD be caught in the old trap. Aside
from the moral aspect of the question
and none of them will pretend to Say
that such a species of gambling is right
it does seem that the people of average
intelligence ought to know it's one
sided affair. To bet g. man on his owl
game, when he's running it, is certain
loss. These fellows don't travel with
the circus for their health, but for the
money there is in it. Some of these
very people have been saying well. II
never get caught in another boom.
You don't catch me taking chances
again." but they snap at the first fl,
that drops on the water and even at tn,
naked hook.
And where were our city officials
Where the police force when this whole
sale and defiant thieving was going on
1t seems strange that on some occasion
our officials should be so active ant
watchful and on others apparently
asleep.
Why, it was only few nights ago tina
some of the boys were threatened will
arrest for cheering the ''CIiftons' upol
their triumphant return from Staunton

Proud of Their Twins.

will be given for twins and saying she
would put hers against any in the dis
trift. Hearing of this, lady near
Waynesboro told Capt. p. that she will
put her twins against all corners. The
Captain says he will arrange a twins
contest on Friday. Basic City can fur

1t is more than likely that Allegheny
county will make an entry in this inter-

the emergency, and usually carries of
the prize, even in Base Ball battles.

STILL AVOIDS PAYING.

| Efforts of the Richmond aud Danville
to Throw Its Debts on the Central
The Richmond and Danville railroad Is
trying to escape paying its debts contracted
while operating the Central railroad. On
April IL, 1892. Judge Speer issued an order
that all suits for debts contracted while the
Central railroad was in the hands OF the
| Richmond and Danville railroad should be
filed jointly against the two roads and the
| court would decide which was liable for the
claims
The Richmond and Danville recently
filed motion in Judge Speer's court asking
that the order be modified 80 as to relieve
it of any liability for debts contracted
while in operation Of the Central railroad.
In answer TO this motion Judge Speer issued
the following order;
The motion of the Richmond and Danville
Railroad Company herein contained to odify
the order of April IL 1892, is denied and the
questions raised for the demurrers Of the Can
tral railroad and Banking Company and Rich
mond and Danvie Railroad Company TO the
intervention Of the Virginia and Alabama Coal
Company are reserved for decision at the final
hearing OF said Intervention. In the meantime
the special master is directed to proceed to take
and hear the evidence on said Intervention and
make his report thereon as heretofore ordered.

MACON AND NORTHERN AFFAIRS.
There was a report last night to the eff
fect that the serni-annual rental of the Ma
con and Northern railroad, due in New
York last Saturday by the Richmond and
Dauville aud the Central railroads, had not
been paid. Receiver Conner left the city
last night on the S:35 O'Clock train, and no
information could be obtained as to the
truth or falsity of the rumor. II is thought
that Mr.. Conner went TO Macon Mr.. Co
mer said several weeks ago, when
the contention was going on be-
tween the Macon and Northern board of
control appointed by Judge Speer aud the
Richmond and Danville receiver appointed
by Judge Newman, that the Macon and
Northern had the funds in hand with which
TO meet its semi-annual rental II the
Richmond and Danville defaults upon its
rental upon the Macon and Northern, the
responsibility for the whole rental will fall
upon the Central. II the Central assumed
this rental 1t would then be in entire con-
troll Of the Macon and Northern.
