Correspondence of the Alexandria Gazette.
LURAY, Va, Feb. 1S.-Page county
is building a new Jail, q fire proof one,
under contract with Manly & Co.,
southern firm, and it will be ready, it
is thought, for occupancy by May.
1t is fine looking building with
many modern improvements, has steel
cages and mob cell. The cost is some
$1,000. Our prisoners in the meantime
are confined in the Front Royal Jail.
We have two murder cases to be dis
posed but there will not be trial be-
fore the March term.
This district will not lack for candi-
dates for Congress as some five or six
persons, it is understood, will seek the
nomination. Captain Parks, our repre-
sentative in the Legislature, is spoken
of by his many friends; S. S. Turner,
the present member, has already an
nounced himself, and so has Marshall
Mccormick, of Clarke; Hay, of Madi-
son, is certain to contest for the honor,
while Walton, of Shenandoah, has. not
yet decided whether he will be a
candidate or not. Of course each
county will be apt to do all
it can for its own candidate, and there
is apt to be strong and a vigorous
campaign before decision is reached.
No place has yet been selected, nor
time fixed for the convention.
Our Circuit Court began its February
term on Monday the 18th inst. with
Judge I. W. Harrison, of Winchester,
presiding.
The Board of Supervisors have offer.
ed reward of $500 for the arrest and
conviction of the murderer of Willis D.
Kibler, who was so brutally murdered
10 this county last fall. This offer has
as yet brought to light no additional
facts, nor have there been any arrests.
The nephew of the old man, Newton
Kibler, arrested few days after the
murder for the crime is still in jail, and
there the matter rests. He strong
ly protests his innocence, and that he
ab ,olutely knows nothing of the MUIR
der save the finding of the body of his
uncle, and giving the alarm to the
neighbors.

Danger Appreciated From Overgrown
Japanese Popuiation-A Cable TO the
United States Notwithstanding
Spend a Night the Brink of the
Crater of Mauna Loa-A Catdron of Fire
with Playing Fountains of Flame.
HONOLULU, May 6, via San Francisco,
May 12.-0f late this government has
felt measure bly, relieved from its re-
cent serious apprehensions of interior
ence from Japan with a view of estab-
fishing authority over Hawaii, with.
the aid of her 100000 subjects already
located here. Such views appear to
have been not long ago entertained by
Japan. but their present severe COM
plications with Russia and embarrass-
ments with Corea and Formosa have
latterly led that government to con-
fine its attention to affairs nearer
home.
Much uneasiness is still felt on ac-
count of this large japanese popula-
ton in Hawaii, comprising a larger
number of males than any other ma
tionalitv here, the native Hawaiians
not excepted. Such an element might
prove formidable if well organized
against the government, considering
the well-proved political and military
ability of the Japanese. No present
Rpprehensions, however, of any such
trouble appear to be called for.
In al interview w. X. Castle. ex-
minister at Washington, said emphati-
cally:
Il consider the Japanese question
altogether the most menacing one be-

liable to be displeasing to their gov

dress. Such demands are liza bic to re-
suit in peremptory occupation of the
islands by Japan. On this account
we certainly need the earliest possible
cable connection with the United
States"

In every old orchard there will be
found some trees which are an injury
to the farmer every year they remain
in the present position, producing
nothing themselves and lessening the
product of neighboring trees. All old
orchards need more fertility, and
also more room for each tree to ripen
and perfect its fruit. Removing trees
that have for years numbered the
ground, taking room that might be
worth something if it were out, is the
best way TO restore orchards to pro-
ductiveness.
