AFTER MANY YEARS.
Return of n Rowing Confederate
SoIdier--RHilroud Speculnfion


MONTERREY. HIGHLAND COUNTY.
VA, August 3.-(SpeciaL)- John Bird.
known throughout this entire region OF
country as "one-armed John" has re-
| turned 70 his home five miles west OF
town. after an absence of fourteen years.
"One-armed John" is unique and pecu-
liar. but, wlthal, a kind-hear5ed, enter
tanning gentleman. Being of d restless,
| rowing disposition, he has visited almost
every section Of this country. and, during
his last absence, conducted "A small
banana plantation in Central America.
This proved the rock on which his fnan-
cial craft should wreck, and, making
his way 20 New Orleans, he met a Con-
federate veteran under whose command
he (one-arm john had been, and was
furnished with a railroad ticket to the
Soldiers Home, In your city Thence he
came TO the home OF his bOyhood, as
stated above. and his many friends extend
to him a hearty welcome Mr. Bird was
never dubbed "a tramp" and yet he is
noted for the many long journeys he has
made a-foot, apparently preferring that
mole OF travelling, and enjoying such
exercise. Some wag asserts that on one
occasion he walked TO Richmond for three
denies.
A GOOD STORY,
The report as TO how he lost his arm. I
will give as best Illustrating his pecu-
liarities, and, while 1t Is not authentic, l
will presume upon his good nature to that
extent. It IS told OF him that during
the late war, in a moment or enthusiasm
and on the verge Of victory. he leaped
upon the breastworks. tapped his arms,
and crowed as dehantly as a chanticl aer
In his native barn-yard, and, before he
could return to cover, he received q
wound from a sharpshooter which dis
abled him for life.
Long may "one-arm John" live to walk

pOrts-schoOl Census.

NEWPORT NEWS, VA, August g.
(Speclai)-No tidlngs have been received
from VI. p. Ward and Clifford Marable,
the two young men who left here in a
canoe on Friday, July 18th. for brief
trip UP the James river. They stated
positively TO their employers and relatives,
that they would return last Monday
morning. As day after day has passed
without any news from the young men,
the anxiety of their relatives and friends,
has increased. until now grave fears are
felt for their safety. 1t is said that
neither Ward nor Marable was expert in
handling a boat, and this fact has given
rise to the apprehension that they have
been drowned. Mr. James Ward, brother
OF NJ. p Ward, left here to-day to make
a tour up the James river in the hope OF
learning why the young men have not
returned.

remains firm and is hopeful; Higgins is
still deeply in the contest, and although
his chances were not as good as a week

change to come in his favor. Massey
IS strong candidate and will probably
make gains. as he grows in the strength
