DR.. II. II. Irwin was hurriedly sum-
moned to the residence of Mr.. John
Gochenour, few miles northwest of here,
on Tuesday evening, to give surgical at
tention to Mr. Gocbenour's little son, who
had fallen upon the edge of a sharp ak
and cut terrible cash across the face,
extending from near the corner of the
mouth to the ear.
We notice that DR.. II. II. Irwin has
gotten out a fine lot of rock for the
foundation of the new dwelling that
be will build on Main steet The build
ing which he now occupies and which
stands with the gable to the street, will
form the wing of the new structure,

and a big improvement to that part of
town,
On Monday night, of last week, the
large three-story Touring mill, belonging
to J. L. Koiner, at Cremore, Augusta
county, Va, was destroy ed by fire on
Monday night of last week, along with
80 barrels of flour anI COCO bushels of
wheat. The mill had quite recently been
fitted up with a complete roller process.
The loss is estimated st $4,000 with an
insurance of about one third.
On Sunday of last week, as the con-
gIegation were assembling for communion
service at Shemariah Presby terrain church,
enc of the Oldest and best known houses
of worship in Augusta county, Va, the
building was discovered to be on fire, and
in q short time was totally destroyed.
Although about seventy-fve years old
the building had been remodelled a few
years ago, and was large and substan-
tlal structure. The loss is over $1,000 with
no insurance.
Gardening has been resumed with a
vim and vigor that promises to make
up in some degree for the rude and sud-
den shut down and the consequent des-
truction caused by the long and severe
cold SPELL Much OF the early vegetation
which had teen forced very rapidly by
the unusually long and warm weather,
was many of the plants in the hot beds
THIS last will cause much trouble and
worry as plants of any size will be ex
ceedingly scarce.
The fire apparatus was taken out last
Saturday afternoon and the engine and
hose tested. Although with bnt light
force on the brakes of the engine, stream
of water was thrown over the top spl II
OF the court house steeple. A section o
hose bursted with the first pressure, show
ing that it was defective and might have
been disastrous.
The engine needs repacking as it leaks
badly at or some where near the connec-
ton of the suction hose. This should be
done at once, as there can be nothing
gained and il may be much to lose by de-
lay in this matter. The most trivia
} thing shOnld not be overlooked or neg
, lected. Tits of too much, far too muc
7 importance.
After some weeks of suffering Mr.. Johf
Henry Klbler, residing few miles ives
of this place, died on Monday afternOo
about o'clock. Several years prisr t
his death Mr.. KILLER was called upon l

, blindness, caused by succession of &C
cidents. Some years ago he was carelessl
struck in the eye by a companion an
