Literary Notes.
Advocate.

At the Worlds Fair last summer no for
eign exhibit attracted more attention than,
probably no other attracted so much as, the
Javanese village. In spite of the interest
then taken in the gentle little brown. skin
ned residents of the rush matting-and bam-
boo village, many people will be surprised
to know that the population of Java is 49,
10000 How the Javanese live, and what
their island home looks like, will be describ-
ed in the May Harper's Magazine with IL
Illustrations of typical houses, vegetation, and
men and women.
"Our English Cousins" Mr.. Richard
Harding pavis's latest volume, gives some
fresh impressions of London, and of Eng
lish country and university life. One of
the most graphic and entertaining chapters
is devoted to Oxford undergraduates, and
other subjects treated are Ascot, Henley,
and the Derby, under the title Three Eng
lish Race Meetings" an anteelection cam
paign from the standpoint of companion
of the candidate, and various aspects of
London.
The title of the novel which Mr.. Charles
Dudley Warner has written for publication
in Harper's Magazine later in the year is
"The Golden House." 1t is a story of New
York society, sequel to the same authors
"a Little Journey in the World" and will
be illustrated with characteristic pictures
by Mr.. w. T. Smedley.
The breadth of view of the times is re-
fected in the current books. Among those
which appeal strongly to the readers sense
of fairness is The Jewish Question" pub
lished anonymously by Harper q Brothers.
1t would be difficult to say from a perusal
of this volume whether the author is pro-
duct of the Semitic race or not. He shows
less feeling than George Eliot in her we'll
remembered treatment of the Jewish ques-
ton, and, on the other hand, he exhibits a
larger sympathy with the Hebrew people
and their destiny than the average Chris
tian. Some of the subjects that he has treat
ed thus dispassionately are "The Mission Of
the Jews" "The Social Position of the Jews
in the Middle Ages and Modern Times"
and Money and the Jews"

Fire at Winchester.

Special Dispatch to The Baltimore Sun.
WINCHESTER, VA, April 1.-The most
destructive fire that has occurred here for
five years broke out this morning at half
past o'clock in the Neics printing-rooms,
on Main street, near the southwest corner
of Water street, and for about an hour the
entire corner seemed destined to destruction.
Messrs. Funk & Rays furniture and under
takers establishment, adjoining and north
of the Ners office, was soon ablaze, as was the
drug store occupied by Mr.. Fred. Miller,
on the south side and directly under the
composing.rooms of the Ners. The fire.
men did excellent work in saving adjoining
property, and while FIVE streams were play
ing upon the building of Funk K Ray the
amount of combustible matter contained
therein rendered it impossible to save any
of their stock. An explosion of gunpowder
or turpentine in the drug store shattered
window and door frames from the rear OF
the building among the firemen. Several
firemen were thrown to the ground and one
or two painfully but not seriously injured.
Several buildings on the east side Of Main
street were slightly damaged from heat and
one directly on the southwest corner OF
Main and Water streets damaged to the ex-
tent of about 5000. The building was
owned by Faulkner Bros, and occupied by
DR.. G. Maynard. The loss of Messrs. Funk
& Ray is estimated at about $4,000 for
building and stock insurance $500
Messrs. James o. F. Faulkner owned the
building occupied by the News Publishing
Company and Miller's drug store; loss
about 5000; insurance $4,000. Fred. o.
Miller, druggist, lost about 5000; covered
with insurance. The News Publishing
Company's loss will be small. A force of
men have been moving all the unchanged
stock belonging to the company to other
quarters, and the editor, Mr.. Robert NJ.
Ward, says the Ners will be out as usual
this week 1t is supposed by many here
that the fire was of incendiary origin. A
quantity of salt was found in the tender of
the Union fire engine, to cause as much de-
lay as possible.

Hon. Charles III. Knott.
Communicated.

Communicated
We have recently seen the names Of sew
eral worthy citizens of Jefferson county
mentioned in the papers as suitable men TO
represent the county in the next House of
Delegates Without disparaging the quail
fcations of any other candidate, we desire
to say few words in behalf OF Senator
Knott. We do not know that he is can
didate, but, if he is, we feel sure that JEFF
ferson cannot do better than to send him to
the legislature. This is the best and most
distinctly agricultural county in the State
and should be represented by farmer. As
a rule, farmers who go to the Legislature go
there without experience and therefore ex-
ert but little influence. This would not be
the case with Senator Knott. He was an
influential member of the Senate for four
years, and the experience gained there could
be turned to good account in the House,
When he left the Senate his farmer cons!it-
uency throughout the State felt that they
had lost a tried and true friend from the
halls of legislation. He is farmer who
breaches the gospel of advancement for the
agricultural class, and, at the same time, is
a conservative business man, slow to move,
but sure to move energetically in tie right
direction. While a firm friend of the farm
er and a strong believer in the efficacy of
farmers organizations, he does not rashly
accept the Lotus blossoms of Utopia. He
has been three times unanimously elected
master of the State Grange, over which body
he has, for six years, presided with dignity
and skill. By his legislative acts and by
his course as master of the State Grange he
has proven himself the unalterable friend
of the agricultural interests of this State,
while he has antagonized no other material
interest, and has done much to develop her
resources. We had occasion to watch his
legislative course very closely, aud feel sure
that time will demonstrate that his course
while in the Senate was inspired by far
seeing craftsmanship. Werecognize in him
man who
| 'Consults his own clear heart and nobly dares
To BIZ, not to be thought, an honest man."
Should he decide to become candidate
for the House of Delegates, we feel sure the
people of Jefferson will reward him for the
good he has done them as well as the good
he is capable of doing. The farmers need
such men as Senator Knott in the legisla-
ture, as we'll as every business interest in
the State, and Jefferson will send him there

The next annual meeting of the West
Virginia Editorial Association will be held
at the city of Wheeling, May and 10, '94.
The officers of the association are anxious to
have every newspaper in the State represent

minds in the country concede that West
Virginia is on the eve of great awakening.
Her wonderful resources are attracting the
attention of capitalists and men of enter
prise. The development of the vast resour-

done noble work in fastening the day of
our prosperity and it is only by organiza-
ton and united efor. that we can hope to
secure a proper appreciation of the news

At recent meeting of the business men
of Pittsburg with others of West Virginia,
especially along the line of the new Fair
mont, Morgantown and Pittsburg R. R.
Co., some most excellent speeches were
made An exchange says: "Col. John T.
McGraw was bubbling over with enthusi-
asm, and, always charming speaker, on
this occasion he outdid himself and won
the hearts of the Pittsburghers completely.
If anything was needed to clinch the facts
that had been presented in the preceding
speeches upon the minds of the assembled
capitalists it was afforded by this brilliant
effort. 1t was the delicious dessert which
followed feast of good things, and sparkled
with wit, made everybody happy and pre-
pared all for the round of social enjoyment
which followed far into the night"

4 Sad aud Mysterious Death.

The community was shocked on Wednes-
day morning on hearing of the death Of Carl,
the seveuteen-year.old son of Mr.. and Mrs.
David We'll, of this city. Several months
ago Carl, who had started to learn the drug
business with Mr.. G. II. Wolfes in this city,
entered the employ of drug firm in Cam
den, expecting eventually to go to Philadel-
phia to take the necessary pharmacy course
at city college. He was bright young
man and became a favorite with his en-
ployers 1t is reported that he had suffered
with some brain trouble, but none Of his
actions at home here ever indicated any
thing wrong with him. 1t was on Monday
night shortly after midnight that he got up,
took his oyercoat and left the store where
he was employed Some young men in the
same building heard him going out but,
thinking nothing strange of him. did
not ask him where he was going. They
never saw him again. Being alarmed when
he did not return the next day they tele-
graphed here on Tuesday, notifying his
parents of his disappearance. His father
went to Philadelphia at once to search for
him, and identified the body at the Morgue
at Camden. He was seen on Tuesday wan
dering in the vicinity where his body was
found by parties who did not know him.
1t is supposed he was suffering from mental
alteration and when he entered the car fell
and became insensible, and while in that
condition 1.-THE night was extremely cold he
froze to death. His body was discovered
on Wednesday morning
Carl was young man of sterling quail
ties, upright, industrious and full Of ability
to take care Of himself
His death was severe blow to his pa
rents and brothers and sisters. The remains
were brought home Friday and the funeral
will probably be held to-day. although at
the time of going to press no arrangements
have been made. We extend to the family
our sympathy in the loss Of much adered

saying that have known him for a number

was active and influential upon all of the

respect Of his fellow Senators, and was a
