Engine 593, late out of the Albina

Engineer Layell, pulling the pile driv-

At this season of the year, while the
ground is SO thoroughly water-soaked,
our brother fire boys are placed in a
most hazardous position, and we trust
every precaution may be vigorously put
IN force to prevent any serious accident.
However, we are aware of the fact that
many accidents occur which seem to be
wholly unavoidable and no cause can
practically be arrived at. Few people
outside of railroad circles fully realize
the dangerous position in which fremen
are placed. Many times an accident
occurs at the moment the fireman is
putting in fire, and for this reason an
escape would be miraculous. However,
the great confidence placed in the engi-
neer gives them much freer and easier
state of mind, and you seldom see any
one in the whole crew in better spirits
than the fire boy.

OF INTEREST TO MERCHANTS
The Suit of ii. Herbring, Defendant.
VS.. Collins.

The suit of A. S. Collins and Mrs. A.
s. Collins against II. Herbring, of this
city, which was to come before the jury
yesterday morning, was again post
poned. This suit against one of our old
est and well-known dry goods mer-
chants creates considerable comment in
commercial circles. It appears that
Mr.. and Mrs. A. S. Collins obtained
under false pretenses and promises at
rthe6 end of the year 1891, goods to the
amount of 5000 from the defendant !;
but instead of paying the bill, as agreed,
they shortly left the city by night and
moved to California. Last spring Mr..
Herbring heard that all their household
goods, etc., were in the hands of the
sheriff of Wasco county, and consequently
placed second attachment upon the
goods held by the sheriff. A portion of
these goods were sold last December by
the sheriff of Wasco county, as no COM
promise could be obtained by defendant.
And now come the plaintiffs and sue
through their. attorney, Judge A. s..
Bennett, the defendant, for the sum of
$175. We will watch this suit when it
comes before the jury, as we think it is
one of great interest to storekeepers.

AMONG The COURTS.
Business Light at the Court House--As-
sauIt Before Schultz.

The circuit court is still waiting on the
grand jury. This morning all the petit
jurors were discharged with the except
ion of Mr.. s. B. Adams, who was re-
served as nucleus from which to draw
new venire when the work is ready
for the court. The civil was very light
this term, only one case getting to trial
and the plaintiff was non suited in that.
so that it did not reach the iury.
JUSTICE CoURT.
Justice Schultz was busted with
a case this morning that is of
peculiar interest, growing out of a
business transaction. Messrs. F. C.
Sexton and J. H. Spoonamore were
neighbors, but got into the courts on a
small matter. The case reached the
circuit court on appeal, and was dis
missed there. Bad blood was the result
OF the litigation and resulted in Mr..
Sexton applying his foot with more force
than elegance to Mr.. Spoonamore's an
atomy. For this warrant Issued from
justice court charging Sexton with as
sault. He was arrested on a warrant
issued by Recorder Menefee, and plead
ing guilty paid his fine, and when
brought before Justice Schultz, the case
was dismissed. He was again arrested
and an attempt is being made to have
him put under bonds to keep the peace.
This is seemingly second edition of
"much ado about nothing"
RECoRDER's COURT.
Peace and harmony prevail about the
recorders court this morning. One soli-
tary vag who answers to the name of
VIM. Smith fell into the clutches of
Marshal sMaloney this morning and
charged with begging. His case was
quickly disposed of, and not having the
necessary half eagle with which to liqui-
date, he was placed in durance vile to
while away the time until his fine has
been worked out.

In Business at the Old Stand.

While others engaged in the printing
business, are Boosting Of unsurpassed
facilities and eapert workmen, and that
there is pressing need for increasing
same, we are pleased to state that the
friends OF the VIRGINIAN are not I'M
mindful Of the fact that we are still in
business at the Oil StaGd, and execute
with promptness and in q satisfactory
manner, all work placed in our hands.
Within the past ten days, in addition to
printing both sides OF Il ;}2scolunn paper,
we have filed orders for Job Printing as
follows:
1000 four page Circulars for Coleman
vile Mineral Springs Company; 2,400
Dodgers for Clifton Ministries; 2,000 Tags,
1000 Blanks for Dray Books and 500
Note Heads for Clifton Forge Grocery
Company; 500 Linen Letter Heads, and
Linen Bill Heads-two colors-N ettleton
Wooden Mills; 2,000 Statements for Pen
dleton Bros; Note Heads and Envel-
opes for A. K. Anderson, and 1000 Tax
payers lnterrog&tories and Letter Heads
for Commissioner Hamilton.
This work was not executed after the
'giuger bread fashion, such, for in
stance, as placing futtering bird at
the top of Railroad Contractors letter
head or having numerous swallows seat
tered about over merchants paper for
correspondence. Such printing will do
very well for certain lines of business,
but is worse than botch work when used
Unfortunately As TO the character
Of work turned out from the VIRGINIAN
Office, we modestly refer to folding
program printed for the Clifton Min
stre!s when they gave an exhibition at
Covington, and also to the work execu-
ted in colors for IT. E. K. Sergeant, Jr.,
Manager of the Nettleton Wooden Co.
Don't be deceived by this buster about
wonderful facilities; it is only within
very brief period that the VIRGINIAN
has had any competition in the way of
workman-like Job Printing. We solicit
your orders, and guarantee satisfaction
or no charge.

Meeting of the Y. M. g. a. State
Convention at Norfolk.


The last Annual Convention of the
Young Mems Christian Association in
Norfolk, Feb. 18th, was the best that
has been held. 1t was composed of men
from every walk in life, all greatly inter
ested in work for young men.
A former dispatcher at Hinton, Mr.. J.
P. Bingley, was the third Vice>Presi-
dent of the Association.
There were many prominent Associa-
ton workers from other States, as well
as international Secretaries G. K. Ober,
New York, and H. P Anderson, Atlanta,
Ga
Especial attention was given to Gel
lege and Railroad work. There are 10
There are about II, 900 men on the roads,
and zoo conversions are reported among
them.
Perhaps the features of the meetings
were the addresses by Prof. Francis H.
Smith, Of the University of Virginia,
and the Rev. DR.. Cuyler. from Brooklyn,
N. Y. This last addressed to the Lords
Young Guard in the Old Dominion, twas
contagious with its enthusiasm and
earnestness.
More than $4,000 was raised for Asso-

tion adjourned, greatly pleased with the
meeting, IS we'll as with the hospitality
of the city Of Norfolk.

year. This growth is due to the railroad

Your correspondent, through the
kindness of friend, was enabled to
spend few days at Old PoiLt, which
was greatly enjoyed. There are about
200 people there now, mainly from the
North. The capacity of the Hygeia
Hotel is from 500 to 1000. Another Ho-
tel is now in course of erection near by,
viz: the Chambers Hotel, which is very
fine but as yet unfinished.
On Sunday afternoon we attended
service at the Hampton Normal School.
Here are about 500 negroes and Indians.
After the services the negroes sang the
jubilee songs, in which the richness of
their voices appeared to great advan-
tage.H
The Hampton Normal School, as you
know, is under the care of General Arm

Besides the history of the club and it's
various methods of work, educational,
social, philanthropic and reformatory,
many pleasant personal items are given
concerning leading members and their
