NEWS FROM THE STATE CAPITAL

Lynchburg Ball Player.
The Richmond correspondent OF the
Petersburg IndexAppeal of yesterda
has the following:
Yesterday was the hottest day ex-
periencei in q long while. The Their.
mometer registered ss high as 1O2 de-
grees. There was much suffering, many
cases OF prostrstion from heat and one
death. A man named Claiborne Thomas,
Is years old, who has often figured in
police court, dropped dead in a street
"a Fulton. He was released from jail
lfst Thursday and had been disslpatiug.
He had no immediate family.
Manager Wells to day authorized
the announcement that he had signed
Joe Gray. late OF the Lynchburg team.
Gray will be played In the field, pro-
tably in left and Ksin in right. The
new man is pitcher, but Wells has all
the pitchers he cares for and Gray will
not be put in the box unless some of tn @
twirlers should become disabled. When
Tannehill RECEIVERS he will be used onl v
for work in the box.
Tine returns from the new assess
mont received at the office OF the audi
tor OF public accounts indicate that
there will be 8 considerable increase
over the assessment made in 1890
Most OF the counties will show de-
creases, but some counties and nearly
every city will report increases. The
work OF assessing Richmond is not over,
but am told that Richmond will show
most gratifying increase.
MANY people are uneasy about the
possible effect of this hot spell OF
hot weather on crops. They fear that
coming so soon after long cool and
rainy spell, it may not be beneficial
Some farmers report that tho young
crop being tender, ara fast burning up
and few more days of heat will kill
them. 1t cannot hurt fruit, but tobacco,
corn and vegetables may suffer"

Rev. j. Cleveland Hall, rector of the
Epiphany Church, will leave on We'd
nesdsy for Petersburg to attend the an
nual council Of the diocese OF Southern
Virginia. He will be accompanied by
Rev. DR.. Dame. This diocese has its
practical limit on the north of the
James river. Its cities are Norfolk,
Lynchburg, Danville, Staunton, Ports-
mouth, Roanoke and Petersburg. The
growth In the church membership and
strength in these places since the
division OF the old diocese, has fully
demonstrated the wisdom of that action.
The Bishop, Ri. Rev. A. M. Randolph,
D. D., has created an enth usiasm
throughout the entire diocese that has
been felt even in the remote country
fields. Danville ranks third in i'm
portance, and it's church is to be con-
graduated at the zeal and life displayed
under it's new and promising conditions.
