ButIer's Way.

In the old United States Build
ing in Boston about five years age
General Butler was engaged in
cross examining witness in a very
important case. He had examined
a half-dozen with unusual severity
A new witness was called. The
right sleeve of his coat was empty
and pinned up to the lapel, in
which was the Grand Army but
ton. General Buffers eye eau ght
sight of it.
"Where did you serve comrade?"
he asked in a kindly way.
81 went out with the Eigth
Massachusetts when you led down
through Baltimore, General" the
old fellow answered in a shaky
voice, "and I served right through
until 1 lost the arm at Point Pike. y
The Generals face softened, and
that soldier probably had the
easiest examination that General
Butler ever gave a witness. When
the recess was taken Butler asked /:
GLOW much pension do you
get?"
II don't get any," was the an
swer. II tried for one, but the
lawyer took what little none I
had and got nothing for me-"
To make a long story short, the
man had his claim put through
and received a sum for back pay
larger than any he had ever pos
sessed. The morning that he got
his money he thanked General
Butler and said:
General, will you take half of
this?"
"Take half of it?" said the Cen
eral. "Why, my friend, I have got
thousand times as much money
as you have. Go back and put
that in the bank. If you meet any
more of the boys of the Eighth
Massachusetts with whom life is
going hard and with whom Uncle
Sam is not doing the right thing,
tell them to come and see me. y

The Texas court of appeals held,
in the recent case of Freeman VS..
Hamblin ct al, that while under
some circumstances the homestead
may be designated by the head of
the family, the husband cannot ex-
ercise this prerogative so as to de-
fraud the wife or to renounce the
actual homestead; that the hus-
band alone cannot by declaration
or acts of sale renounce the home
stead and so subject it to execution,
and that the husband cannot by
his individual conveyance and
without the knowledge or consent
of the wife designate the home
stead so as to exclude a great part
Of it from actual use, even the
home itself, and so subject the same
to execution.

For the SliENAND OAh HERALD ]
We noticed a communication from New
Market in your last issue, which seeming
" appears to be from a democrat but 1t
is the belief here that it is from the pen
of a bitter republican, as certainly no
true democrat would be guilty of volcinG
the sentiments expressed in it.
This communication, even if from
democrat, is not calculated to do any good
for the democratic party or either of the
candidates it discusses. With regard to
Mr.. Hoover it states that, in the event Of
his nomination, he might possibly be
elected by a narrow majority, and whilst
it does pay him SEINE slight compliment,
it not only does Mr.. Brenaman great In
jury bat also a great injustice. AS to the
parties lying in ambush for the PROBES
soI's SCALP" it is enough to say that those
parties are nothing more nor less than the
Republican party, and We would like to
know the democrat for whose scalp they
are not waiting.
We can very we'll understand why re-
publicans should utter such warnings.
The very fact that they make such I'M
favorable remarks and untimely predic-
tions of certain defeat is an evidence that
they see Mr.. Brenaman would make a
successful candidate, and therefore they
do " bat they can to convince democrats
that he is not the man and thereby pre-
vent his nomination.
We believe Mr.. Brenaman is the choice
of the democrats of New Market and be-
lieye he will recei5 re the delegation from
this precinct. and if he is the nominee
carry the strength of his party. We have
heard expressions from anumber of demo-
Gratis, and they say that they believe him
worthy and deserving and it will give
them great pleasure to support him.
What reason is there that he should not
receive the support of his party He is
man of good character, energetic and
sober, and possessed of superior intellI-
gence. He has always been foremost IN
the promotion of public improvements,
and lends a helping hard in works OF
charitable nature. Being in other ways
qualified to make us a worthy and ef
ficient representative in our next Legs
lature, certainly bis splendid and success
ful work for the democratic party OF
Shenandoah county in former campaigns
recommends him to the hearty and en-
tire support of the party, and if he IS thu
nominee will give the county vigorous
and aggressive campaign for the success
of the party.
We believe we can safely say to you
correspondent for the democrats OF thu
community, the nominee, whoever III
may be, whether Mr.. Brenaman, MT
Hoover, or some one else, will be SUD
stantially supported by the party at th'
Mace. Ten DEMOCRATS.

Death Of Jno. L. Brady, Jr.

1t with inexpressible sadness we re-
cord the sudden aud unexpected death Of
MIR. Jno. L. Brady, Jr., the popular and
able editor OF the Strasburg VUginian and

chronic dyspepsia, he had greatly i'm
proved, and was expected back IN a few
days 70 his post on the Strasburg papsr.
But few days before his death be was
out on the streets of Scottsyille.
Mr.. Brady had been connected with a
number of Virginia papers, and was a
bright and spicy writer. He was a polish
ed gentleman, and during the eighteen
months that he resided in Strasburg he
made many warm friends. He was well
known in this place where his death will
be most sadly regretted.
