The suit of n. b. Armstrong
against VIM. Richardson tried at the
November term of the Circuit Court
has assumed Il new phase, by reason
of proceedings taken On the 9Th day
of February i'll the Supreme Court of
Appeals at Charleston.
1t seems that in 1891 N. B. Arm
strong entered into n written agree
ment with McCOnaughey IL Co., and
McConaughey, Bee x Co., for the sale
of large quantity of ties on the wa
ters of Spring creek and West Fork
and William Richardson guaranteed
the performance of these contracts on
the part of N B. Armstrong, and al
so had special contract in writing
with n. d. Armstrong covering the
same transaction, but the foundation
Of the whole transaction rests upon
the contracts with McConaughey IL
Co., and McCOnaughey, Bee Il 90.
In 1893 n. b. Armstrong instituted
suit for damages on account of Il
settlement which he claims he has
made with VIM. Richardson on mat
tiers growing out Of this contract.
This suit was tried at the November
term, 1896 Of the Wood County Cir
cult Court, aud resulted in a verdict
in favor Of the plaintiff for 1884.
Prior to the trial of this case Nc
Conaughey ~ Co., and McComaughey,
Bee ~ Co., had instituted suits i'm the
Circuit Court of Calhoun county
against VIM. Richardson on these
same contract 8, claiming damages in
ST, 900 and $4,000 respectively.
Then William Richardson institut-
ed suit in equity upon an injunction
in the Circuit Court Of Writ county,
to which suit he made N. b. Arm
strong, the plaintihin the Wood coun-
ty suit Il defendant, and obtained an
injunction against McConaugheys
from prosecuting said suits in the
Circuit Court Of Calhoun county.
The Judge of the Circuit Court of
the Fifth Judicial Circuit stated that
he could not try this chancery suit,
and George Loomis was elected by
the bar Of Writ county as Special
Judge, and after the election Of Judge
Loomis as such Special Judge hs be-
came attorney for VIM. Richardson
and actively participated in and aid
ed in the trial Of said suit at the No
vember term Of the Circuit Court of
Wood county, which suit resulted i'm
n verdict fos Armstrong for the
amount above stated
Subsequent to the trial Of that case
MIR. Richardson gave notice of a mo-
ton for AN order Of reference in the
chaucery suit. This motion was re.
sisted by McConaughoys, and they OBJ
jectcd To- Judge boomis further act

Matches From Japan.
Selected.


Foreign matches, in future, instead
of being supplied to us from Sweden,
will apparently come all the way from
Japan, says a London journal. The
competition of the Orientals has al
ready, it is said, destroyed the European
match trade In India, China ana Hong
Kong, and will soon assert itself In the
United States. After supplying their
home market the Japanese are able to
send $500, 100000 boxes to the rest of
the world, Asia, of course, taking most
of this surplus output. Osaka, where
an American syndicate has purchased
one of the numerous factories engaged
in the manufacture, produced last year
lOO, ,OOO, 900 dozen boxes of matches,
giving employment of 3,629 men and
9,711 women, besides thousands OF chill
dren, who earn lew cents ger day in the
work. The sticks are cut by machin-
cry, sifted into little boxes by women
and collected and put in frames by the
picayunes. The sulphur and paraffin
are put on in hand presses and the
smeared points are then dried in the
sun. The boxes and labels are made
by little girls, who are extremely dex-
ferrous in their work.

OSTRICH FARMS.
After Twelve Years Of Costly Expert
ments They Now Pay Dividends.

st, Louis Globe Democrat.
It is estimated that seven ostrich
farms In Southern California have sold
over $4,000 worth of feathers during
the last year, and that now, after more
than twelve years of costly and dis
couraging experiments, a majority OF
the ostrich farms in this region pay
dividends. Several of the enterprises
are pronounced successes, and have
paid good interest on the capital In
them for several years. The greater
part of the money invested in the pro-
duction of ostrich feathers and In the
big birds in California has come from
England and New York. The industry
Is a popular one for young Englishmen
fresh from college or the academies and
possessed of ample means and spirit
for novelty of business pursuits. There
are over fifty bright young men from
England now engaged in managing
ostrich farms in this part OF California,
and there are others recently from Lon
don who are in search of suitable local.
tiles among the valleys and foothills in
this region for new ostrich farms. 1t
takes capital OF $4,000 to establish
any sort of an ostrich farm, and $25, 900
to $50, 900 is required for first-class-
well-stocked and scientifically arranged
farm.
The men who have been in the os-
trich plume industry in Southern Cali
fornia since 1884 say that there has
meyer been such demand for ostrich
plumes as this season. Dame Fashion
has made their business suddenly be-
come most profitable, and every man
engaged in ostrich farming is hoping
that the present fashion for wearing
ostrich plumes in profusion will con-
tinue for several years. Last month
the heaviest consignment of ostrich
plumes ever made from Southern Cali
fornla went to Paris from Los Angeles.
Ostrich farming was first made an ex-
pertinent at Los Angeles and Fallbrook
in 1888 by company OF Frenchmen.
The profits from the several ostrich
farms in this section have grown each
year, as the habits of the birds have
been learned and the ostriches have be-
come acclimated. There are now sue
;essful ostrich farms at South Pasadena,
Fallbrook, Santa Monica,
Coronado, and Pomona,
There are about 400 ostriches in Sou
;hern California, and they have become
10 common that none but the tourists
who come to spend the winter seasons
nere take any curious interest in the
birds. The capital invested In ostrich
in this region is roughly estl-
mated at 100000 and there Will proba-
bly, be $4,000 to $4,000 more invested
in the industry before the year is over.

which none In all history are more ef-
fulgent in all things, pure and lovely,
and of good report. If any young man
shall 60 out from the institutions of
Lexington to anything in life that is
corrupt or unmanly or forgetful of the
honor of Virginia, he will do so against
the example and the appeal of Robert
E. Lee and Stonewall jackson. Ten
years of faithful toll Jackson gave to
the Virginia Military Institute, with
difficulties that have not always been
well understood. Through uncounted
years to come his great name will rest
upon this building as sanction and a
benediction. The memory of this SOL
dier and his campaigns will abide in
this hall, and bis spirit come back to
speak forever of that fear of God which
is the beginning of wisdom and that
simple and humble faith which is the
true and only way to lasting honor and
exaltation. In the lowly building where
he lay suffering, falling, dreaming, pass
ing away, he spoke OF grave "in Lex
ington, In the Valley of Virginia." and
then his thoughts passed up so easily
to other shades and another rest.
"Surely for him it was we'll, it was
best,
War-worn, yet asking no furlough of
ease
There to pass over the river and rest
Under the shade of the trees"
