death Of Dr.. Ed,card N. Logan.

Doctor Edward Male Logan. a prominent
young physician of this place, died at mid
night on Thursday, March 2Srd, aged 29
years. He was the only son of the late
Samuel B. Logan, of New Orleans, who
was member of the famous firm Of Levois
& Jamison, so widely known throughout
the South, and Sarah Male Logan, who
has been residing in Culpeper county for
the past year.
DR.. Logan came to this place little more
than a year ago, but by his genial manner
and spirit of "bon cameraderie" had made
hosts of friends who feel very deeply the
pathetic ending of his life. He had been
unwell to some extent since his return from
the inauguration at Washington, but it was
not until Wednesday last that any serious
symptoms developed on that day he was
heard to fall from his chair in his Office
above Aisquith's drug store and was carried
Immediately from thence to his room at Mr..
Wyatts, where he soon relapsed into uncon-
ciousness, in which condition he remained
until his death.
His mother reached him several hours
prior to his death, and in her great grief
has the deepest and tenderest sympathy of
ALPHABETICALLY OF those who knew Of the
close tie between this mother and son. 9th
er relatives and close friends reached here
on Friday night, and attended the funeral
services, which were held in the Episcopal
Church, by the Rev. Dallas Tucker, at 10
a. m. on Saturday.
Sympathy for the family was shown in
beautiful flowers heaped upon the casket,
which was borne by the following young
men, who had been his more. intimate
friends, aud some of whom were his class
mates II. L. Alexander w. F., Alexander,
I. r. Aisquith, A. S. Allen, F. B. Hooff,
Dr. Howard Moore, DR.. Henry Talbot and
DR.. Van L. Perry.
Dr. Logan had taken a prominent place
in the community from the time Of
his arrival here, and his loss is felt in social
and professional circles, as well as in the
friendly and more personal relations which
he so rapidly established among us.

WHERE YOU FIND IT.
Another Rich Gold Find Near White
Oaks-S1 Geo Ore Seven Feet
from the Surface,

That "gold is where you find it" has
again been demonstrated by another rich
strike on Baxter mountain near White
Oaks. The splendid riches of the Home
stake properties, the Old Abe and other
gold producers has already made this
section famous. Only the other day n
big gold strike was reported in the South
Homc-stake, and now comes news of
another, this time in the property of j..
B. Collier and DR.. A. G. Lane. Jennings
Brothers & Ridgeway leased the property
last month. They had located some very
rich "hoat" on this claim and, after Sc
curing the lease very quickly uncovered
fine lead. Since then they have run an
open cut, stripping the lead distance of
forty-five feet along the surface and about
seven feet deep. The pay rock disclosed
will average thirty inches in width, about
the center of which is decomp posed
streak three inches wide which will easily
run 81 900 to the ton. From numerous
and careful paintings this is considered
very conservative estimate. Aside from
this streak the ore will average about
sl5.
The property will be steadily worked.
This is one of the Oldest claims in the
White Oaks district, and the Eagle says:
"In 1881, Jones Taliaferro did some
trenching on this claim for Mcdonald &
Jewett and the old work shows that he
had started his open cut directly over the
spot where the present lesecs disclosed
their great find, but he drifted away from
instead of with the lead"
