Illness

Amanda c., wife Of Francis S. Deegan,
died at eleven o'clock this morning, at the

from them about once month for the past
twenty years. Last evening she was appar-
emily in excellent health and spirits but at
about 1915, shortly after retiring to bed, she
was attacked by convulsion of such severity
that it was soon followed by hemorrhage.
Dr. NJ. S. Kistler was in attendance and this
morning DR.. J. s. Kistler was in consultation,
but it was impossible to stay the fatal effects
of the hemOrrhage. Mrs. Deegan was 80
years of age and is survived by her husband
and seven children. The youngest child is
10 months old and the eldest 81 years. The
funeral will take place at 10 a. m on Sunday

Secretary Herbert Reprimands Cap
tain LittIetOn w. Il. Waller.

WASHINGTON, January 0.-The resig-
nation Of Lieutenant c. A. Stone, United
States navy, retired. has been accepted,
to date January S1st. Lieutenant Stone
is in the employ Of the Carnegie Com
pany.
Passed-Assistant Engineer o. w. Koes-
ter has been detached from the Cushing

reprimanded Captain Littleton w.
II. Waller, OF the marine corps
on the battleship Indiana. and In
formed him that he Will not be per-
mitted for the next twelve months to
appear as judge-advocate. recorder, or
counsel before any naval court or board.
1t appears that on the occasion OF the IN
quiry into the charge against Lieutenant
Commander Allibone of alleged tyrannlcai
and capriclous conduct, Captain Waller
criticised the department for reprlmand-
ing Lieutenant Anderson without war
rant Secretary Herbert declares that the
court was remiss in not calling the cap

THE FAMINE IN INDIA.
IL Spreads I'm Area and increases In
IufeuSfty.

LONDON, January 30.-The famine In
India spreads In area and increases In
intensity. Thoroughly reliable and inde-
'endent Indian adylces concur IN stating
that relief Will be required TO the extent
Of about f3.500,Oo0 before the famine
abates, the period OF relief extending
to September .leXt Nobody attempts to
forecast what VIII happen IL favorable
rains fail TO fall In the famine district In
July and August next. The urgent and
prospective pressure OF the situation has
awakened public recollection to the exis-
tence Of the famine insurance fund ini-
tiated by Lord Lytton. az Viceroy, after
the famine of 1871. The Government OF
India then undertook to set apart annu-
ally fl,5o0O00 as a famine fund. A scheme
or special taxation for this fund was
adopted and carried out. What has been
done with the fund? IL has been largely
Incorporated for military purposes.
and worse still, IL has been drawn upon
to give compensation allowances to the
vast body OF civilian and military off,
Gals IN India, whose fixed salaries have
suffered 10y the depreciation OF the rupee.
Even men who accepted office I'm India
when the rupee stood at It's lowest, and
who know what the sterling value OF
their salaries would amount TO. have
claimed and got out OF the famine-insu-
rance fund compensation for the depre-
ciated rupee. The dishonor attaching 10
this scandal will tarnish for all time the
history OF British rule In India.
The Russian fund for the relief OF India
has fizzled out. The foreign press spoke
OF IL. but IL turns out to be nothing
tangible. IL Americans think OF contri-
buting, the relief should be given In grain.
Timed meats. or other foods. excepting
grain, would touch the caste pretudlces
even Of the ADMINISTRATION.

ton showed the general direction or the
wall to be northeast TO southwest. on
account of the obstinate character OF
the covering material, ard the difilculty
of working on the upper or northwest
face, but one side could be cleared by the
prospectors with the tools at hand. From
prospect holes sunk at intervals along
the surface for about two hundred feet
It was evident the wall was carried ou
In the same, unbroken, straight line Tor
that distance, at least From all In
dications, when constructed II was capped
by a crest, built at a very sharp
angle with the face. 1t was composed or
a sort Of concrete, but time and desert
storms have obliterated this crest TO a
great extent, leaving only traces of 1t
here and there.
Ii Is impossible even to conjecture how
many years this wall has been covered
up whether the years can be numbered
by hundreds or thousands. Only guesseS
can be made as to the structures uses.
Great stability and resisting powers were
the results to be attained, whether In
withstanding some great force In dam
ming the ravlne across which II extends,
carrying water as an aqueduct, or to
serve as n portion of the outer works
of some fortified city. There has not
been enough excavation ccomplished to
give any definite idea as TO the length
of the wall for the whole surface OF
the surrounding country has undergone
some great change. Rivers have been
diverted from their beds. washes and ra-
vines obliterated; hills thrown up, where
before none existed. What was the
force that produced this wonderful alte-
ration; what length of time has elapsed
since IL occurred: was this the result Of
a gradual and relentless process of de-
generation, o. was the country visited
by some conyulsion OF nature, or an
earthquake; or did some overheated vol
cano belch forth its ayalancheS or lava
and torrents Of ashes and cinders? The
volcanic formation OF some Of the lower
hills. and the honeycOmbed, pumice-like
rock which abound would tend to sup
port the latter theory. The wall Itself
is covered with conglomerate, decomposed
granite, and sand in layers, so that the
various strata give some, though slight,
evidence In favor Of the volcanic theory.

River blocked with Ice.

We have had the coolest spell here for
two days past that this section has
known for good many years. Yes
terday morning the thermometer regis
tered degrees below zero, and it was
2 degrees below this morning. The river
has been blocked up with ice for two
days.
The dwelling Of Mr.. \. S. Burgess, at
Central Plains, barely escaped destruction
by fire a few days ago. The room over
the parlor was occupied by two young
ladies, and when they went down TO
breakfast they left a bed on the floor,
which they turned over. But, without
knowing It, they folded a live coal In 1t.
About three hours after one OF the
ladies' went up TO the room for her hat.
and on opening the door found the room
full Of smoke and flames. She gave the
alarm, and all who were present came to
the rescue, and by Selling on all the
water they could find, succeeded in
checking the fire. Five minutes later 1t
would have been beyond control.

Incidents He Had TO Remember.
% the Editor of the Dispatch:

To the Editor or the Dispatch:
When l read in your paper about Judge
Marshall and Mr.. Ramos two incidents
were brought up to memory. / was a
little shaver when the BODY OF Judge
Marshall was brought up the river in the
old double-engine steamer Kentucky. Her
bow was as round as a tub. and her
speed not very great, taking nearly all
day TO get here from Norfolk. The crowd
Of people In Rockets was enormous. and
the military far and near were gathered
to honor the occasion. What history has
called fuss and feathers" was there in
all his glory, and besides him there
were many another fuss and feathers
of our own State troops. The ceremony
attending the landing of the casket was
slow and tedious, and the march TO the
Shockoe-Hill Cemetery to doleful marches,
still more so. BY the time the firing OF
the infantry and artillery was over and
the casket in the ground darkness came
down upon all present, and, not knowing
ANYBODY In that end OF the town. l was
a little upset as to where 1 should rest
for the night To make a long matter
short. I went into q house adjoining the
cemetery, told the proprietor who was,
and. knowing my father, he toldone he
would let me stay with him. and next
day take me home. After eating supper
l went TO sleep, and slept ten hours be-
fore | woke On reaching home next
day found the family all in dreadful
hullaballoo about me, and l received
what PADDY gave the drum" to aid my
recollection. Not long afterwards / went
TO a school frolic on James river, and
the teacher treated 10 too much mint
iulep. and every boy was rather jubilant
and noisy. The same day 200 Portuguese
PASSED up the river as prisoners OF Uncle
Sam. and whom the Portuguese Govern
ment was trying to have tried for piracy
Their only offence was taking vessel
and escaping TO this country. Mr..
Ramos. Sr., afterwards told me about
Il. ana an old gardener at my father 3
was also one OF the number. Revenous
a nous montous. my paternal relative
found me with too much spiritual power
from the mint julep. Putting me on a
negro's back. was padded forward to-
wards my resting place. and my recol-
,.ct,ons of these events were duly en-
erayed for awhile on flesh and matter.
