True as the Gospel.

At recent business convention Governor
Francis, of Missouri, who is in position to
know whereof he speaks, paid tribute to the
local newspaper as follows =
Each year the local paper gives from $500
to 1000 in free lines to the community in
which it is located. No other agency can or
will do this. The editor, in proportion to his
means, does more for his town than any other
ten men, and in all fairness with men he
ought to be supported-not because you like
him or admire his writings, but because the
local paper is the best investment communi-
ty can make. It may not be brilliantly edited
or crowded with thought, but financially it is
of more benefit to the community than the
teacher or preacher. Understand me. | do
not mean mentally or morally, but financial
ly and yet on the moral question you will
find most of the local papers on the right side.
To-day the editors of the home papers do the
most for the least money of any people Oh
the face of the earth"
True, 0 King 1t is an absolute truth that
editors of the home papers do the most fol-
the least money of any people on the face OF
the earth"

Rev. Lapsley, of Bethel, held series Of
meetings here last week, lasting all week. He
is an earnest, eloquent, Christian gentleman
and makes every effort in his power to have
the assertion that there has been more good
eloquent preaching done here than in any
other town of its size in Virginia, with the
poorest results. Well, the preachers do theil
part surely.

Arrested for Violation of the
Mail Laws,

On last Wednesday, D. J. Landes, photog-
rapher of this city, was arrested by Deputy
Q. S. Marshal, Samuel NJ. Donald, and ar
raigned before U. S. Commissioner, George
E. Sipe, of Harrisonburg, at the office OF w.
E. Craig, on the charge of violating the law
by sending obscene matter through the mail
in two cases-the one being letter to II. e.
Carter, of this county, in. reply to a
letter making inquiry as to the character of a
certain woman, and the other postal
card to J. A. Kennady, of this county, in reply
to what he considered insulting remarks, in
which postal card he used what is construed
as threatening language
He waived examination before the COM
missioner, and was bailed in the sum of $500
in each case to appear at the next term of the
Federal Court
For such offenses, the law prescribes a
penalty in each case of a fine of not less than
l cent nor more than 1000, or imprisoned al
hard labor not less than one hour nor more
than ten years. or both.
The penalty seems too great for the offense.

"rhe Strike at Shane's."

'The Strike at Shanes" is remarkably at
tractive little book, and one calculated to dc
much good, as it is likely to be as widely cir.
culated as its famous predecessor 'Black
Beauty" The average sequel is recognized as
painful effort to prolong the interest and
vitality of a popular book, but this spirited re-
cital of a strike among abused animals is q
delightful exception to the rule The Strike
at Shane's," or any other of the prize stories
published by The American Humane Educa
ton Society, will be sent to any address upor
receipt of ten cents for each book, sum
which barely covers the cost of printing. Ad

Mrs. lydia Margaret Lockridge.

The following, in reference to Mrs. Lock-
ridge whose death we noticed shortly after it
occurred, we copy from st PduPs Record, a
monthly paper published in the interests of
st. Paul's Church in Indianapolis, Indiana
No parish can sustain so grievous loss as
that occasioned by the death of Mrs Lockridge
without serious impairment to its usefulness.
Mrs Lockridge was a Virginlan by birth, but
had been a resident of Indianapolis ever since
she came here with her husband, DR.. }. Il.
Lockridge In 1878 She seemed to bring from
her own sunny South store of genial good
will and cheerfulness which never failed her,
even when in the midst of sore and bitter trial.
Mrs. Lockridge fairly radiated goodness. 1t
shone in her eyes; it sounded in her voice; it
was exemplified in her daily walk and CONVEX
sation She could truly say, Lord, | have
loved the habitation of Thy House, and the
place where Thine honor dwelleth," for she
never failed, except in case of Illness to wor-
ship in His sanctuary; and when she turned
away it was to practice the virtues and eXem-
plify the graces which she had learned in Gods
courts. No day ever passed in Mrs. Lockridge' S
life but that she sgnalized by making some
one else better or happier. Even from her bed
of lingering and agonizing illness, which she
| bore with such heroic fortitude, there came sc
many evidences of thoughtful care and love
| for others that that sick bed became visible
| evidence of the hope that maketh not ashamed
and OF the trutn as IL IS III Jesus. MIS- LOCK
ridge was the most competent as well as the
most faithful Sunday-school teacher we have
ever known. To fill her place there is simply
| impossible. In the missionary work of the
Church she was Jealous and indefatigable
The tactful, earnest, inspiring President of the
Auxiliary until her death, we miss her there
most keenly also. May God raise up more
such workers and worshippers to labor in the
field which Mrs. Lobkridge has left to enter
| upon vet nobler service.
| The committee appointed at the last meet
| ing of the Auxiliary to prepare resolution ex
pressive of grief and regret at the death Of
their efficient president, Mrs. Lockridge, have
prepared the following
WHEREAS, In His all-wise providence ou
Father has called our friend to her home,
Resolyed, That the members of the Auxiliary
deeply deplore the loss of this earnest an(
helpful CO. worker.
Resolyed, That we affectionately sympathiz
with. and tender to, her bereaved husband
our sincere condolences upon his irreparabl,
loss, convinced that "Heavenward she tool
her way Gods benediction upon her
Resolyed, That these resolutions be sprea(
upon the minutes, and copy be sent to DR.
