MEMORIAL-DhY IN CLARKE.
Damage to Crops by Rain and Storm
Actions Growing Out of Blooms.

BERRYVILLE, VA, May 29.-CSpecialO
Confederate Memorial-Day was observed
NJ "the Old Chapel" in this county. on
Saturday last. a large crowd was In at
tendance, and the services were very i'm
pressive. At the appointed hour % o'clock
Rcy. J. =. Tyler, Of Wildwood, opened the
services with prayer following which was
the roll-call Of those Confederate soldiers
buried in the cemetery adjoining the
chapel. Captain William Page Carter in
n very handsome manner introduced the
orator Of the occasion, Hon. a. Moore,
Jr, who delivered a most eloquent adj
dress, after which choir, led by Herbert
Page. Of "Pagebrook," sang several hymns
and old war songs, and the graves OF
the soldiers were strewn with flowers.
The southern portion Of this county
was visited last week by very destruc-
tive hail-storm. The track Of the storm
was about three miles wide, and the
damage done to the growing crops by It,
as well as by the severe rains OF the past
few days, Is very great. IL Is estimated
that over !. 500 acres Of wheat were ruined.
and a great many farmers have had 10
replant their corn two or more times
Where not injured by the storms, crops
OF all kinds are unusually fine.
IMPORTANT CASES.
The spring term of the Circuit Court
Judge Robert II. Turner on the bench,
adjourned on Saturday after a session
lasting over two weeks More work was
done than at any term for several years
past Two OF the most important cases
on the docket were those OF the
Mercantile Trust and Deposit Com
pany, Of Baltimore, trustee, etc, VS.. the
Berryville Water Company, etc, and
George G. Ricamore ct. ais. vs.. the
Berryvnle Land and Improvement Com
pany ct al. both being actions growing
out of the boom Of 1890. In the Water
Company case an order for the sale
OF all the property of said company was
entered, and In the Land and Improve
ment Company's case sales Of the land
Of said company made under an order
entered at "A previous term, were con-
firmcd, and judgment entered against all
non-contesting stockholders. A great
many stockholders are contesting the
power of = court of equity to deprive
them OF trial by jury, and upon the
questions arising thcrefrom the Court
has reserved its decision. Several cases
of damages involving amounts ranging
from $3.50 to 500 were decided against the
Norfolk and Western Railroad Company.

Asphalt md CobbIe Stones.

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
The attention of the Commissioners of the
District of Columbia is respectfully called
to the wants of the manager, Mr.. Schoepf.
of the lexington and Soldiers Home Rail-
way Company. Mr.. Schoepf desires that
the paving between the tracks in Ecking-
ton shall be done with cobble stones, as II
is 'one of the most durable forms of pave
ment used And he further states that
asphalt pavement between tracks is mot
desirable" We would like to know what is
the matter with the pavement between the
tracks of the Washington and Georgetown
railway on Pennsylvania avenue.
In an article in today's Star the state
ment is made that other permits (for laying
cobble) have since been granted. but no one
objected until the lexington and Soldiers
Home Railway Company applied for a per
nit to pave between the tracks in certain
parts OF lexington with cobble but when
the property owners protested the permit
was promptly revoked.
when New York avenue between eth
street and Florida avenue was to be re.
paved during the past summer, and be-
lore tne paving was begun. was not the
permit to pave with cobble revoked?
Inc property owners and residents then
petitioned and protested against the out-
rage. and were kindly Informed by tha
Commissioners that the cobble-stone pave
ment was merely temporary pavement
ana now Mr.. Schoepf assures us that IL Is
"one OF the most durable forms of pave
ment"
We believe Mr. Schoepf knows what he Is
talking about, and IL The Star does not
Keep up the good fight against the trolley.
lac will succeed In saddIing 1t on the Belt
Line II the attorney for the District will
read the act authorizing the construction of
the lexington and Soldiers Home railway,
we think he will find that the act gives the
Commissioners authority to require that
