A horse and buggy belonging to Mr..
C. L. Martin, Of EdInburg, was standing
10 the yard of the Shenandoah House, on
Wednesday afternoon, aud in some way
the horse became frightened and Gem
mencsd to ! ok viciously. He then start
ed on wi run across the street and
into the yarl of the Geary House just op-
posite, upse ting and dragging the buggy
after him al breaking it to pieces. The
horse wa also pretty badly skinned
about the legs. Mr.. Martin was COM
PEELED to return to Edinburg on the train.
Many of the roads of this county are in
bad condition. Are they to be left this
way through the to be expected bad
weather of the coming winteIf Now IS
the time to work them if they are to be
worked at all. The busy season is about
over, and many persons who week or
two since did not have time to spare for
road making can now do 80. AS we can
not have compulsory road service any
longer under the decision Of the Court of
Appeals we can only repair them by
voluntary work, and as the condition OF
some of our roads is of great Importance,
we believe many persons would readily
give day or two's service if called upon
We had been for some time wondering
why we did not receive any communlca-
tons from one of our fair correspondents
whose lively letters had entertained our
readers for several years. We feared that
there might be soma cause, and opce, we
think, we wrote to make inquiry. An
occasional letter afterwards greeted the
readers of the HERALD, but these letters
did not come with their accustomed reg
ularity. 1t was only last Wednesday
that we learned the sad history of the
case. A yonng and handsome school
teacher had came into the neighbOrhood'
Her tine as so occupied that she had
to sacrifice something and our readers
became the victim. Before this paper
reaches You, if cur information Is relia-
HE, we fear that she will be-maried.
Sad, isn't it
Mr. Frank Miller, of near Mt. Olive. is
wonder with a traction engine, and we
wOnld not be surprised to see him per-
form on trapeze some day with one OF
these huge machines. On Wednesday Of
last week he undertook to take one of
these engines across the mountain into
the Little Fort for Mr.. Aft. Holdings
wsrth. The route was over rough bark
road so steep IN places that long poles
were fastened so as to project from the
front of the engine and weighted by a
number of men clinging to them to pre-
vent the engine from fitting up in front
and tumbling oyer backward. 1t was
thought impossible to get the engine over
without the assistance Of horses, and Mr..
Hollings worth had eight mules ready to
hook to it but to the surprise OF everyone
the engine went over every part under
its own steam, and apparently with all
ease We doubt il an engine has ever
been moved over such road before.

Woodstock, Va,
Dear Sirs:-We have been General
agents for the Carpenter Organs fol-
about ten years and during that time We
have sold large number of them in tbi'
and adjoining Counties. They have
always given perfect satisfaction IN
every respect, and in fact We do notknov
that we have ever failed to satisfy Gus
toner, or have to return an instrument t.
the factory for repairs.
For purity aud variety of tone, sweet
ness, power, aud sOlidity of continuation
we consider them unsurpassed. Their
are other instruments that can be bought
for less money but when the many ex
= cellent features combined In the Carpsn
: ter are taken into consideration, VIC thinl
YOU will fed it really the cheapest in the
market. Wishing you success we are,
