BON AIR NOTES.
The wcather-Persona1 ana
Hunters.

BON AIR, VA, September u.-,Spe-
cial.)-The weather Is getting very warm
again, with a promise OF another heated
term. 1t is also becoming dry. The rain
which fell some ten days ago did much
good. but the earth IL getting quite dry.
Farmers, however, are busy preparing
the ground and getting ready for the
coming winter. Forests are still looking
green and fresh though. and even should
we have no more falling weather they
will retain their freshness until the frost
King comes. Last year the late dry
spell seemed 10 have dried up the foliage
on the trees. ana turned 1t brown from
that cause before the frost came TO give
It many colored hues. This year u will
probably be different and those who are
privileged to visit the country this sea-
son will have the pleasure OF seeing the
forests clothed in their autumnal CARDS,
resplendent with their varied beauty.
September is the loveliest month in all
the year In which to roam through the
woods, and happy they who can indulge
in the delights Of It,
The Misses HaZen have returned from
a trip of several weeks spent In visit
ing relatives and friends in the Northern
and Eastern States. Their many friends
here gladly welcome them home again.
Mss ANNA Longest, who has been
having a delightful time at Peonan
Springs and vicinity, will be home quite
soon.
The many friends OF Mrs. Jacob Bates
welcome her restoration to health.
We have now the pleasure of the COM
many of Mr.. Bernard Peyton and his
family, who have taken the residence Of
Major Stiles for the balance OF the
season.
There are a good many squirrels In
this vicinity, and large numbers have
been killed. Indeed. judging by the
numbers OF gun-shots heard. one might
reckon them by hundreds. i have heard
OF but few coveys Of birds, and think
that this game is not numerous, but
there are a great many hares, and when
the time comes for killing them Nhere
will be fine sport with the huntsmen.
I have heard, too, of several deer having
been seen in the bodies of timber which
are near the river bottoms. but believe
that there are not many Of them here
abouts.

BALTIMORE, MD, September 1.-THE
rate war between the Seaboard Airline

in the local courts to-day. The Baltimore

legged breach OF contract
The declaration alleges that on Janu-
airy II, 1877, the Steam Packet Company

timore, Chesapeake, and Richmond
Steamboat Company. which provided that
for five years from date the latter conf
pany agreed not TO have any OF It's

folk 20 receive or discharge passengers

The Packet Company claims that on
July Z, 1896. the Richmond Company be-
gan to violate the agreement. and has
continued to do so since that time. For
that reason damages are asked tsgs
amounting to $4,000.
