IN SOME TROUBLE,
severa! Attachments against the
Glen Allen Kaolin Company.

The Glen Allen Kaolin company
seems to be in some trouble. The
plant is we'll equipped, and has a
considerable amount of washed
clay on hand. But they have, it
seems, been unable to get a mar,
ket for it.
A few days ago, the Bollinger
county bank of this place filed an
attachment against S. Il. Jacques
for $3.50. Since that time several
other claims for labor and material
furnished have been fed. Sheriff
Wells attached their works at Glen
Allen Saturday afternoon.
Some time ago Jacques cashed a
sight draft on J. V. Cambell Of
New York at the bank. When the
draft was presented it was not
paid, and has not been paid since

this: the public buys its goods from

Our Fruit Prospects,

From the most reliable unoffi.
cial reports the editor can gel
there are excellent prospects for
good fruit crop, this year, with the
exception of peaches.
Reports are that the February
cold snap has blighted, the peach
crop over the entire county, and
in some instances killed the trees.
Apples, pears, plums and cher,
ries are apparently uninjured.
Growers report that strawberries
never looked better, and if no more
cold weather comes the yield will
be unusually large, and the fruit
unusually fine.

Don't be Offended.

The editor wishes to apologize to
the Lutesville Dramatic club for
the condensed notice o. their play

prevented more extended comment,
and it is now too late. However,
it was worthy of the very highest

UNDER THE LAURELS.
An Excellent Play Well Produced
by Local Talent.

The Marble Hill dramatic club
played "Under the Laulels" to
packed house Thursday night and
many persons were turned away.
For amatuers the cast was well
played. J. S. Lane made an eX-
cellent william of the smooth, de-
ceitful, fawning sort, and Miss
Jennie Dunlap was the typical hard
hearted mother of an adopted
daughter. The part was we'll
played. Her love for the william
and her hopes of a union with him
were neatly blighted by Brant-
ford's unrequieted love forR ose her
adopted daughter. She played the
aristocratic southern lady to per-
fection. =.
Miss Sue Belle Graves as Rose
Milford was the injured, yet re-
warded heroine Of the play, and
did her work well. She is good
elocutionist, and has an air of
naturalness on the stage that is
very pleasing.
Frank Colewood was the adopted
son of the deceased Milford, and
the triumphant lover Of Rose. The
part WAS played beyond adverse
criticism by David Conrad.
He makes an excellent proud
young man, and his style Of love
ma king was quiet gratifying, but
whether it was acted or natural
was matter of conjecture for the
audience.
Bob Button the successor of
Colewood, as superintendent of the
plantation, was we'll represented by
Edward L. Drum. He was vii
lian, and the accomplice Of Brant-
ford. He was mean, Drying spy,
and the part was played in man.
ner that cannot be duplicated. He
had a good voice and commend
able naturalness about his work.
Sooky Button, played by Miss
Lille Jamison, was the sister OF
Bob, and Mrs. Milford's house
keeper. She was also an accom-
plice, and was heartily hated by
the other house servants.
Charles Wells was the Sheriff,
who ended Brantford's plot by ar
resting him. His part was a
minor one but was we'll played.
Ike Hopper, the "Hayseed', a
farm laborer on the plantation,
and the friend of Rose came in
handy with his trough knocks"
though not a GLADYS man." but
was just plain, big hearted Ike
Hopper, and he played the part to
perfection.
Polly Dowlsr who was "sweet"
on Ike and was Roses friend, was a
plain ignorant, true hearted house
servant, and the part was well
played by Miss Effie Lane.
Zeke----what can be said Of Zeke?
Nothing that will add to, the peo-
pies good opinion. AS a negro
charachter Ed Mayer is hard to
beat. He played without. d balk
and without an imperfecti5n. His
inexhaustible fund of wit and humor
was never exhausted. 1t is un-
necessary to say more.
The specialties were "Little
Blue eyed Baby girP' and "Poor
Little Joe" sung with excellent
voice and gestures by Miss Hattie
Dunlap. She pleased the most
critical, and was applauded to the
encore. Miss Mildred Graves gave
her usual invaluable assistance as
occnrOnonist.

THE RURAL SAINT.
A Celebration in his Honor Among
 Mexican Ranchers.
They March Around Every Field Feasting and Firing of Guns
 A Night of Prayer.

All honor was shown today to San Ysidro Labrador.
 San Ysidro is the rural saint, the patron of the fields and crops. The image was carried today about the fields below town, with gay procession following.
 They went through every field. The custome is to take single field at a time, march around it with songs and occasional firing of guns when the celebrsnts became particularly enthu- siestic, returning to the house there for. A new start is made for each field.
 At every house refreshments are on hand, and are served. A feature is usually an olia of teswin, light wine made of corn. No other intoxicants are permitted.
 The procession through the fields today lasted much of the day. The first of the crop of each field was promis- ed to the patron saint. The Chinese garde eners have come to have due regard tor this annual festival, and were among the heavy contributors, some of them giving money.
 One rancher, Manuel Castillo, made the promise years ago to give special celebration to this festival each 18th of May. Tonight. as usual, he will serve a grand spread, and all members of the procession will be there to partake After the special prayers, presumably for good crops for the coming year, will follow, lasting the whole night through. D. At midnight another big supper will be served.

NAMING HIS BABIES.
How Agent Berger Supplied the
 Papagoes with Names.

How Agent Berger Supplied the Papagoes with Names. When the Pspago Indians of the San Xavier reservation were granted land in severalty, four years ago, they had to be given a supply of names.
 It is popularly supposed that Indian names are very poetical affairs, some thing like Flaming Cloud or Winged Feet, and pronounced with words with 8 hyphern for every syllable. Such is not the case Tn real lie.
 They are great big babies, the Papa goes babies without a name in many cases. Many of the big farmers asked by Agent Berger as to what was the name of their respective squaws would grin in a silly way, and shake their heads. They didn't know. How they can communicate without names in the families is mys tery. but the Papagos are not very loquatiOns anyway. Others of the Indians had one name, always of Spanish, as Juan or J aquin or Miguel, but invariably they had nc surname.
 So the agent set about naming his babies. There were 300 of them. Those that had one name were given Q sur name; and those that had none got two names. They were generally gwen Spanish names, being that to which they were most used. In a few cases English names were used. So far as possible, the same faml es got the same surname. It was all the same to the Indians. They grinned but did not remember their new designations. The names are all carefully recoreded Tn a register, and DOW should a San Xavier Papago want to know his surname he would have to gc to the agent, who would consult the book.
