The Company A ball Tuesday even
ing was quite the successful military
social function of the season. About
200 ladies and gentlemen were present.
All had a real pleasant time and unan-

entertainers.
The night was perfect Until after
twelve the moon shone in rich splend-
or. A screen of flags of all nations
separated the dance hall from the en-
try. On either side were the parlors
for ladies and gentlemen respectively,
each draped with the Hawaiian and
American colors. The walls on either
side of the ball room were handsomely
bedecl<ed with flags. Overhead were
the codes arranged in the snaps of a
huge star. The rear decorations were
also very pretty, consisting chiefly of
flags, bunting and evergreens.

in light colors, chiefly white.

so because they advance new methods,
but simply because they know how to

and restore prosperity to all the
people.
With this declaration, and its twin
sister-protection for American labor
and American industries against
underpaid competition abroad-the
result ought not to be doubtful.
The republican candidates are men
of such high character and proved
capacity that they should command
the votes and the labors OF every
good party man in the State.

There are continued signs that a
gain in business has begun. says Dun's
Rerielr. Stocks have gone higher
than they were before the artificial
break ten days ago, wheat and cotton
are in better demand, there is more
confidence in monetary circles, and
the tendency toward shrinkage in
great industries seems in some meas
ure, at least, to be checked. While
the outcome of the democratic con-
vention is uncertain, and the great
crops are not yet wholly beyond dan
ger, sure and strong Improvement
could hardly be expected, but the tone
in business circles has grown dis
tinctly more hopeful.

ARRESTED NEAR MIDLOTHIAN.
Thought to BE Implicated In n Train
WrecI<inE.

MIDLOTHIAN, VA, october T.-(Spe-
ciaI) -Three negroes were arrested near
here yesterday by detectives Of the
Southern railway on n charge Of stealing
lot Of groceries left at buckingham
siding. about a mile south Of this station.
Daniel Brown was the first negro arr
rested and he confessed the crime. and
told the officers that Phil. and William
Branch assisted in the robbery. These
two negroes were also arrested. and will
have a hearing at once before Magistrate
~. b. Winfree.
Several weeks ago a barrel Of sugar
and a barrel of other groceries were left
at Buckingham siding. There Is no agent
at that place. and IL seems that the
goods were improperly marked, as they
were intended for Buckingham Court
house. The barrels were looted of their
contents, and the case was reported TO
the agent at this Ulace.
1t Is alleged these negroes are members
OF a gang of thieves who live i'm this
community. 1t is also reported that the
negro Brown has made a statement to
the effect that he knows who the parties
are that changed the switch at Bucking-
ham siding several months ago. and
wrecked a passenger train. Interesting
developments are expected when the
negroes are brought TO trial.
