lCOMMUNICATEI
yIRGINIANs AT CANTON.

The dispatch published in yesterday
papers, "Virginians to visit Canton
headed by the famous Stonewall band,
will attract, as is intended, attention
from the outside world, but it bears nj
fruit to Mckinley aud his cause. The
correspondent of the GAZETTE was il
Staunton the early part of this week
and talked with many influential mer
about this contemplated visit from citi'
zens of the Valley of Virginia. He
was told that it was a pleasant season
of the year, the farmers pretty wei
through their work and they wanted tC
see the country. They took the TRIP
at the exceedingly low price Of 81 for
the round trip, the regular fare being
about SIG. The famous Stonewall
band' IS paid two hundred dollars for
their services, and the trains to carry
the excursionists are almost furnished
free. The Stonewall band is the pride
of Staunton and of Virginia, and they
90 for the 5000; not many Mckinley
voters in this band, nor in the crowd OF
Virginians who go with them. This is
a Doodle campaign and money will car
ry the trains and the band. but wont
carry the voters on the Ord of Novem-
Der next. Bryan will carry Virginia
by the largest majority given any pres
idential candidate since the days Of re-
construction. VALLEY.

Result Explosion.

BALTIMORE, Oct. l0.-By the explo-
sion of a gasoline stove at % south
Exeter street this morning four persons
were badly burned. Mrs. Dora Rosen-
stadt, nurse, aged 80. will die of her
iuries; Mrs. Becky Rosenberg, aged
20, burned about the arms and back
may recover; her eight-days old infant
burned about the hands, will recover;
jacob Rosenberg, the husband father,
was burned about the face, arm and
neck, but will recover. The victims
were taken to the city hospital. Mrs.
Rosenstadt attempted to fill the gaso-
line stove while it was lignted. The
woman picked up the stove and hurled
it down the stairs to the first floor.
Mr.. Rosenberg and his wife carrying
their babe rushed into the hall.
Mrs. Rosenstadt stood before them,
her clothing ablaze. Rosenberg grabbed
her and started down the steps. The
hallway below was all ablaZe where
the oil had been splashed. He attempt
ed to go through with her, but stumbled
aud she fell on the stove. He made his
way through the fire. His wife, UP
stairs, despairing of escape by the hall,
Way, ran to the window. A crowd had
gathered beneath. To colored man
she threw her eight-day.old child and
then lea2ed out herself. The men
quickly extinguished the flames which
were burning Mrs. Rosenberg and her
baby. By this time the fremen had
arrived. Mrs. Rosenstadt was pulled
out and the flames extinguished.

ICOAlMUNICATED

A CRUEL JoKE.-A well known citi.
zen OF Fairfax county, who for years
has been staunch democrat and one
of the leaders Of that party in that sec
ton, came to this city a short time ago
wearing Mckinley button on his coat.
He had worn it for some hours before
he discovered what it was, when he
threw it away, using language not to
be found in the Bible. Some miscreant
had placed it there as joke. The gen.
tIeman is in very bad fix, as he is
ashamed to come to the city and face
his old democratic friends and he is be-
ing congratulated by the republicans
as q valuable convert to their faith. 1t
is particularly hard on him, as the
greatest enjoyment Of his life has been
to come to town on Saturdays during
election times and discuss politics on
ROYAL street near the market with his
fellow countrymen and neighbors.
This he is now prevented from doing
and he has to get his neighbors to
get his supplies of groceries etc. If Mt.
Vernon district fails to give its usual
democratic majority at the coming cleo
ton the cause will be apparent. The
joker had better lay low, for, if he is
found out, there is apt to be funeral
in that section, when he will occupy
the most prominent position and ride
to it in vehicle in which be has never
riden before. The aggrieved gentle
man thinks that any jury would bring
in verdict of justifable homicide un-
der the circumstances.

ginia House of Delegates from Fairfax
county, delivered able and stirring adj
dresses before the Virginia democratic
association of this city last night.
Private letters received here from
New Haven state that the Yale stu
dents, by parading that city and shout
ing for gold, and by other manifesto
tons of republican and boilers parti-
sanism, have melted and promoted SO
much ill-feeling against them on the
part of the town people, that the rela-
tioDs between the college and the city
are anything else than agreeable, and
are considered so unfortunate by Presi.
dent Dwight, that he has issued per-

FIGHT WITH a SHERIFF,-Grays
Creek, near the North Carolina line,
yesterday morning was the scene of g
desperate battle between Deputy Sher-
iT j. X. Kinlaw and J. J. Pate on the
one hand, and J. d. Johnson on the
other. 1t resulted in Mr.. kinlaw re-
ceiving pistol ball in the head, Mr..
Plate being shot twice through the chin
anil two farm hands being slightly
wounded, and Mr.. Johnson's arrest as
the perpetrator of the deed.
Eirly yesteday moraing Messrs. Kin
law and Pate started out to serve an
attachment on the property of a colored
tenant of Johnson. They reached Mr..
Johnson's place in Grays Greek about
ten o'clock, and Mr. Johnson ordered
them not to take any steps in regard to
his tenant, that most of the tenants
property belonged to him and that he
would defend it with his life.
The officers, armed with the legal
papers, got out of their buggy, when
Mr.. Johnson leveled his shotgun and
attempted to fire. Before lie could do
so, however, the gun was snatched from
his hands. He thereupon drew pistol
from his hip pocket, and opened fusi
lade upon the officers. They both
sprang upon him, but before he was
overpowered each had been painfully,
if not seriously, wounded. How many
shots were fired is not known, but some
went wide of their mark and struck two
farm hands in the field.
