Suicide at Staunton.

STAUNToN, VA, May 6.-This city was
shocked about $50 o'clock this afternoon by
the announcement of the death of Judge
John W. Green Smith. He roomed in the
Law Building, in the courthouse yard, and
the tragedy was discovered by the janitor,
who had occasion to enter his room about
that hour. The dead man was lying in bed ,
with forty -four caliber Remington revolt
yer in his hand, one chamber of which was
empty. Just behind the right ear was the
hole where the ball had entered and plowed
a CHASTITY furrow up the side of the head.
He gasped few times after being found,
but died in a few moments. From the
statement of parties living in the vicinity
the shot was fired at 415. 1t is thought
that he was labOring under temporary men
tai alteration. Judge Smith was a native
of Rockingham county, but has lived here
for twenty years. For twelve years he was
Judge of the Hastings Court of Staunton,
and since that time has been commission
er in chancery. He was considered the
finest commissioner at this bar, aud was
man of fine legal and literary attainments
He was widower aud leaves several chill
dren, among them Mrs. Annie Peale, of
Harrisonburg Lucius Smith, of West Vir-
ginia; Mrs. ]. Frederick Efinger and Her
bert Smith, of Staunton. Mrs. W. II. Tams,
of Staunton, is his sister-Balimor Sun.

Senator Johnson n. Camden, of West
Virginia, is frequent visitor in Baltimore,
and his kindly face, crowned with snow
white hair, is often seen around the lobby
of the Carrollton-for Mr.. Camden does not
hide himself from the public gaze like GER
tain other Senators do when they visit the
city. Mr.. Camden is Democrat in manner
as we'll as in party faith, and treats with
equal courtesy and affabiity anyone who
may call on him, no matter what his station
in life.
On one of his recent visits he said:
'T am confident from all the present in
dications, that we are on the eve of great
business revival in all parts of the country,
and noticeably so in the South. In fact, the
hard times have not been half as hand in
the South as they have been in other sections,
and there have been few business failures
with our people compared with those of the
North and West.
az think the future of West Virginia will
prove what have often said, that our State
is, in natural resources, one of the richest
in the Union. We have had steady de-
velopment in the past, but think it will be
more rapid during the next few years.
'Do think the tariff bill will be passed
Certainly do. The Democratic party has
pledged itself to reform the tariff laws, and
will do so on lines as liberal as the existing
state of the Treasury will admit. There
may be some difference of opinion as to the
exact lines of the reform, but rest assured
the reform will come as the party promised.
81 come to Baltimore very often to look
after private business affairs, and | feel thor
oughly at home here. am acquainted with
so many people in Maryland and have so
many friends in different parts of the State
that feel as if among my own people
Maryland and West Virginia are such close
neighbors and their business interests, rail
way, mining and otherwise, are so closely
allied that we are like one community. -

The amendments to the income tax pro-
vision of the tariff bill, agreed upon by the
Democratic Senators and submitted to the
Senate, do not change the rate-twO per Ct,
which is to be levied, as previously proposed,
upon incomes in excess of $1,000. They
limit the period during which the tax is to
imposed, making a re-enactment necessary
if the measure proves practicable and pop
ular relieve the income of an individual
obtained from corporation from double
taxation taxing only the profits Of the cor
poratiou and exemp. such organizations
al building associations from the operation
of the law. 1t is also proposed to do away
with the inquisitorial feature Of the tax
Instead of compelling the individual to ex-
hibit the books, the assessor may estimate
the amount Of the income, and the person
assessed may prove that he has been assessed
too high if such is the case.

A peculiarly sad and singular accident, by
which John Newcomb, a well-known farmer
of Clarke county, met his death, occurred
about five miles from this city, on the Berry
Vile pike, last Saturday evening. Mr.. New
comb was returning from this place to bis
home at Vaudeville in spring wagon, when
his horse became frightened and ran of,
throwing him out and iDjuring him severely.
Mr.. Newcomb's son was informed Of the
accident and went for his father in cart,
when his horse also became frightened and
ran away, throwing his father from the cart,
breaking his neck and killing him instantly.
Mr.. Newcomb was we'll known in this place
and his sad death is much regretted by his
many friends Winchester Times.

The Dream Came True.

The following remarkable recent expert
ence of Portland lady is fact She had
been absent from her home all day, and
that night she had q dream. She thought
she had started to descend the cellar stairs
when great snake came gliding up. 1t
reared its head close to her and stood there
swaying back and forth, and suddenly the
head began 10 change and assume the form
of a human head, and finally the face of one
of the neighbors vas grinuing at her on the
serpent's body. She awoke with a scream.
The neighbor was one whom she knew but
slightly, but with whom she was not favor
ably impressed. The next morning her SER
want, most excellent cook, and so gener-
ally superior as to have become almost a
member of the family, told her that she
must leave her, as the peighbOr of the dream
had come the to house during her absence the
day before and offered higher wages and less
work and better advantages generally
The result was the servant went to the
neighbOr's, aud the lady tells that her dream
was appropriate She had no intimation or
suspicion that this neighbor had designs
upon her cook, and there was nothing APP
parently, to inspire her dream.-Porlaad
