Shot Down On a Train.

A dispatch from Charlottesville,
Va, dated last Thursday says Miss
Laura E. Martin, daughter of Mr..
Hudson Martin, of Faber's Mill, was
shot down without warning in the
train on its arrival from the south this
afternoon. Miss Martin was coming
from her home to this city and occu-
pied seat with Charles I. Brown, of
Danville. Between Faber's Mil and
Charlottesville Richard B. Guard, of
Faber's MIL, but on his way from
Lynchburg here, entered the car and
taking seat behind Miss Martin en-
gagged in conversation with her. Their
talk was on general topics, and there
was nothing said to indicate that Guard
was laboring under any excitement or
that he contemplated rash act. On
arrival at this city Mr.. Brown and
Miss Martin arose to leave the train
and without a warning word Guard
thrust a 32-caliber Smith & Wesson
pistol in Miss Martins face and fired,
and she sank to the floor Guard then
turned the pistol toward his own head
and sent two balls through his hat.
Mr.. Brown took the pistol from him
and turned the man over to Officer
Davis and he was locked up. Miss
Martin was removed and taken to the
Hotel Carter, and DR.. Dabney, OF the
University of Virginia, examined the
wound The ball entered the left eye,
and passed upward under the bridge
of the nose and lodged above the right
eye. DR.. Dabney says the wound IS
dangerous, but her chances for re-
covery are good. The wounded girl
is a blonde, about q years of age, OF
slight figure and quite pretty. She is
said to be engaged to a gentleman OF
this city No motive for Guard act
is known, but the most frequent con-
lecture is that he sought to address
Miss Martin and received no en-
couragement. While the officers were
searching Guard at the jail he en-
deavored to conceal a pocketknife foi
the purpose of self-destruction, it /:

end his life by cutting himself IN the

OUR REPRESENTATIVE.

Monday the Republican EXecu-
tive Committee met and nominated
Hon. Andrew Gamble, as the Re-
publican candidate for Representa-
tive of this county in the next Leg
islature. This will make the Sec
ond nomination for Mr.. Gamble
and he is to be congratulated upon
the fact that he is the only man
who ever received the nomination
twice. Mr.. CANDLES record in the
last General Assembly was a good
and clean one. He did as good
work as a new member could do
and was recognized rs among the
leaders of the republican side of the
house. Some of course will be dis
satisfied, because there were three
other candidates, but the members
of tue committee are the represen-
ratives of the people and certainly
have the power to act, as the State
Executive committee recognize;
this fact and considered the advisa
bility of nominating the Supreme
Judges. While some may diffel
with the committee as to the meth
I'd and time of nominating, yet
| is, in our opinion, the duty of al
true republicans to support tn
nominee, especially when he is
, good man. 1t is very dangerou
, to destroy party machinery unles
there has been something very on,
rageous done. Here the committe
has not in the least exceeded thei

paper and as a republican will sup
port the regular nominee. 1t does
seem to US that the victOrs In a
fight that is over should not try to
keep that fight up, especially when
the defeated side recognize and ac-
cept their defeat. The victors
should set about trying to heal the
wounds made and rc-unite
all discordant factions. We earnest
lly desire the success and welfare Of

is to, in so far as we can, restore

Senator Teller's test vote on the
tariff bill, unexpected, served a
good purdose. 1t showed that the
democratic Senators have not only
got together, but they have also
captured the voters of the populist
Senators. Mr.. Teller's object frank
ly stated when he moved to lay the
tariff bill with the expectation that
democrats would assist the repub-
licans in defeating the bill. Wheth-
er this will shorten the time in
which the bill will be considered
remains to be seen, but the proha-
billties are that it will not, as the
republican Senators have repeated

of fillibustering against the bill,
but only desired to point out the
unwisdom of the various important

reached.

Does this mean that which ever
side throws their influence In favor
of the Major for governor will be
helped by him whether right, or
wrong? There is a wrong side and
a right side to everything. Major
Coffman has an opinion as to which
side is right. Would ne lay aside
that opinion and fall in with the

COMPULSORY EDUCATION ALL
THE YEAR ROUND.

Provisions should be made by the
State, for the keeping open OF the
public schools the year round.
Two months is too much idle time
tor the average school boy III the
towns. The State should make ed
ucation of children compulsory
and it should be compulsory
twelve months out of the year.
There is generly a heavy lapse
from studious habits and good
manners to bO0rish and indisposl-
ton to study during two moths OF
vacation which the State should
render impossible by keeping the
public schols open twelve mouths
in the year aud by making attend
ance thereupon compulsory. The
loss of two months is a clear loss
of ground. The teacher never re-
covers the loss OF it. Teachers In

CHAPTER XVI.

WHEN THE SOUL KNOWS ITS OWN REsfoRsE.
Bernardine had seen Mr.. Reffold the
previous day. She had sat by his side and
held his hand. He had smiled at her many
times, but he only spoke once.
Little Brick" he whispered, for his
voice had become nothing but whisper,
II remember all you told me. God bless
you. But what long time it does ta.e To
die"
But that was yesterday.
The lane had come To an ending at last,
and Mr. Reffold lay dead
They bore him TO the little mortuary
chapel, and Bernardine staid with Mrs.
Reffold, who seemed afraid to be alone
She clung to Bcrnardines hand.
No, no, she said excitedly, ''you must
not gol / can't bear to bo alone-you
must stay with me"
She expressed no sorrow, no regret. She
did not even speak his name She just
sat nursing her beautiful face
Once or twice Bcrnardine tried to slip
away. This waiting about was strain
on her. and she felt that she was doing
no good.
But each time Mrs Reffcld looked up
and prevented her.
mo, no, - she said, 81 can't bear myself

Why should you leave mef"
SO Bernariine fingered. She tried to
read abook which lay on the table. She
counted the lines and dots on the wall pa
per. She thought about tho dead man
and about the living woman. She had
pitied him, but when sho looked at the
stricken face of his wife Bernardines
whole heart rose up in pity for her Re
morse would come, although it might not
remain S)ng. The soul would see itself
face TO face for one brief moment and then
forget its own likeness.
But for the moment-what weight Of
suffering, what n whole century of agony!
Bcrnardinc grow very tender for Mrs.
.Rcfiold. She bent over the sofa and fon-
died the beautiful face.
Mrs. RcfIold, she whispered.
That was all she said, but IL was enough.
Mrs. Reffold burst into an agony of
tears.
''Oh, Miss Holme," she sobbed, "and
was not even kind 90 himl And now 10 Is
too late. How can l ever beartnysclf?"
And then it was that the soul know its
