We have received the seventh annual
edition of the Newspaper Manual of
Remington Bros, of Pittsburgh, Pa. and
New York, N. Y The Manual appears
in a greatly enlarged form, and is now
one of the most concise, convenient and
reliable works of it's kind. The general
arrangement of of this useful book res
mains unaltered, but important and
valuable additions have been made, thus
increasing its value to the general adver-
tiser as reference work and in the com
pilation Of his lists.
The contents include complete lists of
all newspapers in the United States and
Canada, with their days of issue, pol
itics and circulations, and properly clas-
sified lists of the principal Dailies and
Weeklies, and the best Agricultural,
Religious, Scientific and Trade publca-
tions and leading Magazines. All the
lists are catalogued by towns in alpha-
betical order, and in the general list the
population is given of each town and of
the country in which it is located.
To advertisers especially the Manual
must prove invaluable, containing as it
does every particular necessary for the
general description OF each newspaper
and so arranged as to to admit of the
readiest reference.

Given an Ovation.

That famous musical organization,
known as the 'Stonewall Regimental
Band'' from Staunton, completed a
special engagement of two weeks at the
Worlds Fair last week and returned
home. We had the pleasure of hearing
this band in the Transportation Build
ing last Thursday, and we but voice the
sentiment of a great multitude by say
ing that it rendered some of the best
music heard at the great Exposition.
They played several of the popular airs.
which were heartily applauded We were
proud to know that this was a Virginia
organization, which was lionized by the
citizens of Chicago, irrespective of party,
The citizens of Staunton can congratu
late themselves on having Band that
has achieved national reputation, and
it was very gratifying to US to see the
respect accorded this organization which
is the pride of all the boys who wore the
gray throughout the South.

CLIFTON FORGE, VA, Oct. 25th, 1893.
Editor Valley Vaagaaada7t:
1 notice in your last weeks issue signed
MANY Citizens that it was rumored
that l had entered into an agreement
with the Low Moor Iron Co. in order to
receive their support, that l would not
interfere while in the Legislature (if
elected) with this Iron Company's po-
1uting the waters of Allegheny county
with the ore-wash. will simply to state
that I deny this in toto In the first
place, knowing the manager of the Low
Moor Co. as l do, as we'll as managers of
other iron works in the county, l don't
think any of them would stoop SO low as
to approach me with such a proposition,
and l don't think there are very many
citizens in Clifton Forge but know me
we'll enough to know that l wouldn't
accept a proposition of this sort very
kindly.
But while we are on this subject l
want to state to those ''manv citizens"
of Clifton Forge that about tree thous-
and souls are fed by the products of the
iron works of Allegheny county, and
these iron works are now selling iron at
price about equal to exchanging dol
lars. | would just ask these many cit
izensn do you think it an advisable time
for rigid legislation?
Respectfully,
A. F. WITHRow.

SPECIAL RESPONDENCE

EXHIBITION GROUNDS,
MT. VERNON BUILDING,
CHICAGO, Oct. Is, 1893.
This is wonderfully progressive age
in which we live To illustrate Your
correspondent took passage on the su-
perb C. s. y. limited train Saturday
night at o'clock at Clifton Forge, and
at precisely that hour on the following
morning was in Cincinnati, covering a
distance of $50 miles. There we remained
until that evening, and then continued
our journey to this city, reaching here at
1870 a. H. Our first venture was to pro-
cure comfortable hotel accommodations.
which was accomplished without the
slightest difficulty, and we then joined
the thousands on an iniatory visit to the
Worlds Fair. From the roof of the Lib
eral Arts building, which has walk ex-
tending around the entire structure. you
obtain an enchanting view of all the
Worlds Fair buildings as we'll as drink
in the refreshing breeze that comes from
the beautiful Lake Michigan, Turn in
any direction You please and you see
surging, bustling mass of humanity,
moving as though there was some great
prize to be awarded for swift walking.
After spending nearly all day in the Lib
eral Arts building, filled with beautiful
exhibits Of every description, we next
turned our attention to the foreign ex>
hibits, visiting the Canadian, Brazilian,
Turkish, Spanish and India displays,
which are strikipgly unique and inter
esting. Tomorrow we will see the won
derful contents of the Agricultural and
Machinery Halls, and will continue from
day to day until we have seen portion
of the displays in all the buildings. And
the question naturally suggests itself,
what of the Columbian Exposition l
answer with all possible emphasis, that
like everything Americans undertake,
it is wonderful in conception and incom-
parably great. Every American who is
fortunate enough to- see this stupen>
dous display of American genious-sec
ond to no other country under the sun
will have no cause for modification. In
a word, it will be we'll worth the trouble
and expense incurred in coming here.
Among those from Clifton Forge who
are now enjoying the pleasures afforded
by the Fair, are Capt. and Mrs. Moody,
Capt. and Mrs. Smith, Mrs. M. H. Pen
dleton and ye scribe, az of whom are
most pleasantly situated at the Column
bian Central Hotel on 62nd street, but
short distance from the Exposition
grounds. The hotel is built of pressed
brick, trimmed with sandstone and is
six stories high, having all modern con
veniences We would advise all our
Clifton friends to stop at either the Co
lumbar Central, Montreal, Alfonso,
Western Reserve or Resale and Cottages
The weather is delightful. Wishing the
VIRGINIAN and its temporary editor
great success.
Yours for the present,

Mathew H. Hope Dies Suddenly
"Wednesday at Tultahoma,
Tennessee.
BELOVED BY a aosr OF WARM FRIENDS

This community was startled yester>
day morning by the announcement that
Mr.. Mathew H. Hope, the well known
salesman for the Clifton Forge Whole
sale Grocery Co, was dead The sad
news was contained in the following tel
egram:
TULLAHoMA, TENN, Oct. 25, 1898.
To Capt Jno. Donovan,
Clifton Forge, Va.
Mr.. Hope died suddenly at a. m.
Notify his folks and wire us what to do.
j. J. Book.
Just two weeks ago Tuesday the VIR-
GINIAN noted the departure of Mr.. Hope
for the Worlds Fair, and the writer con-
versed with him Oh the day previous.
when he seemed in perfect health, and
was bouyant in spirits. Today that man
ly form lies stiff in death, far away from
home and kinsfolk The immediate
cause of his death is said to have been
pneumonia, brought on by cold con-
tracted while on the Exposition grounds
at Chicago. After remaining in the city
for several days, be continued his jour
eey to Tullahoma, the residence of Miss
Book, to whom he was most probably
engaged. There he had gone to enjoy
his vacation under the most favorable
circumstances, save his own disability.
We all stand aghast at this strange dis
pensation of Providence, and are forced
to acknowledge our utter helplessness.
Few men perhaps enjoyed the friend
ship and esteem of so large a circle of
friends throughout Virginia as did the
subject of this notice. Having a marked
genial disposition, he quickly made
friends wherever he travelled. his expert
ence as salesman covering a period of
ten years.
When the Clifton Forge Grocery Co.
was established in this city, he became
its representative, which position he
held at the time of his death. The es-
TEEN in which he was held by this Com
pany can be judged by the following cir
cular letter, issued by Capt. Jno. Dono-
van, Manager, making official announce
ment of his death:
CLIFTON FORGE, VA, Oct. 25.
Dear SIR 1t is with sincere sadness
| announce to our patrons that Mr.. NJ.
A. Hope died this morning in Tennessee,
of pneumonia.
This am sure will be very sad news
to those of his numerous friends along
the C. & O. R'y who have known him
for years, and who will always remem-
Der him as a true man, a faithful, genial
friend. and one earnest and Jealous in
the full discharge of every duty assigned
him by this Company.
Mr.. Hope was cut down il the vigor of
manhood, being but 90 years of age.
His remains left Tullahoma at 10 O'Clock
last night and will arrive at Basic City
tomorrow, where they will be met by a
delegation of Knights of Pythias from
this city, composed of Rev. Wv Wheels
er, Messrs. G. Collins Taylor and Geo.
Il. Byrd, representing Iron Gate Lodge,
No. 70, who will accompany the remains
to Fredericks Hal, We, the place Of in>
terlmeut.
Mr. Hope hasan aged mother residing
near the above place, and also sister
in.law living in this city. The heartfelt
sympathy of this entire community goes
out to those who have been berieved.

The Vacant U. S. Judgeship.

The death of Judge Hugh l.. Bond, of
the United States Circuit Court for the
circuit embracing Maryland, the Virgil
MAS, and the Carolinas, announced
Tuesday, was not unexpected. He had
long been sick man, though he dis
liked to have the newspapers say so,
and for two years had been able to att
tend to but small portion of the bus
mess of his circuit. The Dispatch and
Judge bond rarely, if ever, agreed upon
great public questions. We have always
credited him with ability, but in. our
judgment his partisanry unsuited him
for the bench. He came of family dis.
tinguished for courage and keenness Of
intellect, and these characteristics he,
too, possessed in a marked degree.
Judge Bonds death makes vacancy
which it will be the duty of Mr.. Cleve>
land to fill. The President will find a
great number of capable lawyers willing
to accept the position, since it carries
with it high honor and the comfortable
salary of $4,000 per annum, besides al
lowances for travelling expenses, &c.
Each State in the circuit, at the props
per time, will no doubt have one ormore
good men to present.-Richnond DIS
