an exceptionally fine collection OF
wild plants and flowers pressed and
mounted on paper. with scientific
and common name. ate Of collection

grades have specimens OF work III
spelling, arithmetic, writing and
language on exhibition, besides>sonle
excellent work in drawing and maps
mounted in clay on pieces OF board
or paper. Even the little folks OF the
first and second grades have worked
to present q creditable exhibit, and
they have it. Some of their dra wing
would reflect credit on older pupils

second grades Of the Central had on
exhibition some clay work which
deserves special mention. A basket

other tempting fruit, would misiead
anyone into believing itreal. IL
The exhibit throughout is good,
and shows great care in preparation

act as an NEGATIVE to the pupils in
urging them to better work during

H. A. Dow. who lives on Seventh
street 4northeast, was taken sudden
ly i'll with a peculiarmalady Monday
morning. Sunday night * hs could Il
not sleep and in I he m orn,ng cons
planned of assevere pain in his head.
He left home for, the purpose Of see
ing DR.. Trace, and was not heard
from until noon when a letter was
received from his brother-in-law,
N. P. Fiddler, at Royalton, stating
that he was there and was very
sick. When he arrived at Royalton
he was out of his mind. His brother
went down to Royalton and
brought him home on the afternoon
train, which arrives here at about
4 o'clock. When brought home he
was unable to recognize anyone, and
for a time it was thought that he
had become insane. DR.. Trace was
called and under his treatment he is
much better today, his reason being
restored. DR.. Trace says his trouble
is dyss to nervousness and thinks
that the terrible pain from which he
was suffering was the cause OF his
demented condition. Mr.. Dow is a
heavy tobacco chewer and as he has
been worried Of late on account OF
being out Of employment. it is
thought that the two have brought
about his sickness. DR.. Trace Is
confident OF his recovery and says
he can see no danger Of insanity.
No one knows how he got to Royal
ton. He left. home early in the
morning and did not arrive in
Royalton until noon. He may have
walked, but some think he rode
down on the freight train that
leaves here at 8 o'clock. .

Death of Judge A. c. Snyder.

-AJudge Adam C. Snyder died at
his home in Lewisburg, W. Va, on
the oath inst, after an illness OF
about SIX weeks, caused by a ca
tarrhal affection Of the,stomach.
This eminent gentleman was
born in Crabbottom, Highland
county, in March, 1884. His boy
hood days were spent at the place
Of his birth. After completing his
education at Washington & Lee
College, at Lexington, he entered
the law school Of Judge }. W. Brok'
enbrough, which profession he
mastered and closely followed thro
life and was made famous. When
the war began, he enlisted in the
Confederate army, in Company e
Of the 9th Va. regiment, where by
his bravery and fidelity to the cause
he received marked distinctions.
When the war closed he again re-
sumed the practice Of law and was
elected as prosecuting attorney OF
Highland county in 1866. Shortly
afterwards he removed to Lewis
burg, where he soon built up a
large practice. which he, held until
1882, when upon the death Of
Jndge James F. Patton he was ap-
pointed to fill the unexpired term
as Judge. He was twice elected to
this position, but resigned it in
1890, much against the wishes Of
his constituents, to attend to his
much neglected private business,
During the last years Of his life
he was engaged, in the mineral de-
velopment Of his section Of the
State. He was also president Of the
LewiSburg bank. Surviving him
are five children, DR.. H. 0. Snyder,
Of Baltimore; }. Verne. Kenton NJ.
and Fred w. and Miss Zulieme.
He was buried from the Presby-
terrain church at Lewisburg, on the
25th inst. by. representative mem
bers Of the Greenbrier county bar,
and the Masons from, Lewisburg
and Ronceverte.

The campaigning.

As the time draws nearer for the
camp-meeting in Crabbottom it is
being more fully developed that it
will be a success. The interest la
ken by the people Of the immmedi-
ate neighborbood is much greater
than on any previous like occasion.
and the preparations being made
are on a large scale. Reports COM
ing from different sections Of this
and adjoining counties as to the
large number Of people who will at
tend the meeting has necessitated
an increase in the size Of the
grounds. It has been estimated
that the crowd that will be present
on Sunday will reach 1000. There
will BE- upwards Of twenty tent
holders. most Of whom have erected
their tents.
Mr.. Wilson, the. bearding-tent
man, informs us that he has ar
ranged for frst.class accommOda-
tons. He has secured special quar-
tiers for ladies in a dwelling near
the grounds, where they will be
we'll taken care-of.

In Memcriam,

Your many readers will learn
with sadness of the death Of MIR.
Stephen A. Lockridge, which oc-
Cured on the 21st inst. at his home.
On the day following many friends
assembled at the funeral services,
filing the house, porch, and a large
space in the yard. Rev. Mr.. Dobbs
preached the funeral sermon from
Ps. 1O2:11-12-13. The sermon was
appropriate and impressive and was
received by the audience with pro-
found attention. The burial was
delayed from II a. m. till 4 or 5 p,
M, with the hope that Mrs. Not
tinghan, the eldest daughter, would
arrive. Wis noteworthy fact that
altho the large congregation ex-
pected burial to end by 1 pm. they
patiently waited with few excep-
tons till so late an boar. We con-
clude this to be anindex to the es-
TEEN and sympathy felt for the
sorrowing family. The remains
were carefully lid to rest in the
family burying-ground beside a
wife and three sweet daughters who
had preceded him to that lonely
spot. The words love and "Rest"
and a cross oil beautifully wreathed
with flowers were by hands gentle
and loving placed upon the grave.
Mr.. Lockridge was good citizen,
an obliging neighbor, an affection
ate husband and father, and a brave
soldier.
When the thunders Of war in 81
awoke the bering echoes of
our sunny Southland, he was one
of the first to volunteer and enlist
under the Stars and bars Of the G.
S. A. Enlisted in Company +,
Bath Squadron. 18th Va, Cavalry,
he followed such leaders as Rosser
and Stuart and passed unscathed
through the whole storm with a
record untarnished by anything
that would detract from the char
acter Of soldier: In a charge at
Amelia Courthouse q short while
before Lees surrender at Appomat-
tex, Mr.. Lockridge, Tillotson Burns
and lieutenant Of the 18th Regi-
men lest their hats. The Federals
reinforced and drove back the "boys
in gray" and on the return Mr.. L.
picked up Mr.. Burns hat, Mr.. Burns
picked up the lieutenant's hat and
the lieutenant got a blue boys hat
The lieutenant and Mr.. Burns ex-
changed and Mr.. Lockridge kept
Mr.. Burns with@Mr. BIS con-
sent, of course. This incident was
related to the writer by Mr.. Burns
on the day Of Mr.. Lockrid8e's bur.
ial and serves to illustrate some OF
the ups and downs Of a soldier.
We are more than glad to tell
the many friends Of the deceased
that a short while before he passed
beyond the bounds Of time he pro-
fessed faith in Christ. May the
same Friend prove a comforter tt
the bereaved wife and sorrowine
children. nj. u. w.

proved at present. DR.. Kent Trim
BILE is attending her.
Mr.. Burns, who was treated some
time since at Johns Hopkins Hos
pital, does not improve as rapidly
as his friends had hoped.
We have had remarkable sea-
son for growth IN vegetables. Geo.
Bird has as fine piece Of corn. as
is ever seen in Highland at this
season Of the year; it is all now
caring, in a week the ears will be
we'll formed. Mr.. Wallace has a
piece of corn about as good as Mr..
Birds. With the exception of
wheat, which is very light, we
have the finest prospect for an
abundance of grain that we have
had for years. The meadows, also,
are much better than they have
been for some seasons.
1.-The congregation at Rehobeth
has put good plank fence around
the church, which was a much need
ed improvement. They expect in
the near future to make some 9TH
err improvements in the way of
painting the interior of the church
and adding d yestibule.
We had preaching on Sunday at
Rehobeth, by Rev. W. II. Woolf; a
large congregation was present.
He preached in the afternoon at
Green Hill, where he was again
greeted by large audience. We
SHOULD like to see some one agitate
the question of improving the
church at Green Hill. 1t is the
spot where sleep many of-our dead,
and for the love and respect we
have for them we ought not to al
low the church to become unfit for
use for the want Of a small contri-
button from, all who should, and no
doubt would give.

The San Jose orPernicious Scale

We are in receipt Of Bulletin 62
Of the Virginia Agricultural Exper-
iment Station which treats Of the
pernicious scale recently introduced
to the Eastern States from Califor-
MIA. This pest has now been wide
ly scattered over the Atlantic sea-
board by means Of infected nur-
sery stock. principally from some
New Jersey nurseries.
1t is a minute scale insect which
infests all manner of fruits and
multiplies at an enormously rapid
rate, SION causing the death Of the
plants attacked. This insect PROM
ises to do untold injury to our fruit
interests unless strenuous measures
are adopted for its suppression.
Looking to this end an act was
passed at the last session Of the
Legislature comforting upon the
Board Of Control of the Agricultu-
raj Experiment Station the author
ity to appoint an official inspector
and giving to this officer power to
inspect all premises and treat in
tested plants as he may deem prop
er for the suppression of the insect.
This bulletin treats in full Of the
insect with a number of illustra-
tions and gives the text of The state
law and the rules and regulations
adopted by the Board kbf Control.
