LOST IN VIRGINIA.

A dispatch from Washington to the
New York Sun says:
Representative Geo. B. Mcclellan Of
New York and ex-Secretary OF the
| Navy Hilary A. Herbert were the ora
tors at the commencement of the gradu
ating class OF the Washington and Lee
University at Lexington las week. The
exercises we're held the day before the
House voted on the Newlands resolu-
ton providing for the annexation OF
Hawaii, and as Mr.. Mcclellan was
booked for a twenty-minute speech
against the measure they left the in
stitution at the close OF the affair for
night drive to Buera Vista the nearest
railroad station at which they could
catch the train that night for Wash
ington. All went well until the party
reached point which the darky driver
said was two miles from Buena Vista.
Here :the nigh horse Of the team
baked, probably being an eisht-hour
animal and constitutionally opposed to
working overtime, However that might
be, balk he did, and suasion, moral
and physical, failed to move him. There
was nothing for it, if they did not
want to spend the night in the Vir-
ginia woods, but to tramp, and after
receiving specific directions from the
driver they started, Then d new
difficulty presented itself. Mr.. Herbert
has weak heart, and the unwonted
exercise and the strangeness of the
situation so wrought upon him that the
gentlemen were unable to proceed
more than quarter OF a mile without
stopping to rest. The hour Of mid
night came and went, andstill no town
Despite their driver direc-
tions, they had taken the wrong road
SON ewhere, and Enthusiastically were
lost. Efforts to iouse the inmates OF
two or three farmhouses they passed
were unvaling, and they were in the
depths OF despair. Suddenly their
hopes were aroused by the sound of
wheels. They proved to be those Of a
buggy containing single occupant.
He was accosted and appeared to give
the weary wanderers lift.
"Who are you?" he inquired suspi-
ciously.
81 am ex-Secretary Herbert" the
good man from Alabama said, "and
this is the Hon. George B. Mcclellan,
q Representative from the State OF
New York.
That might have been convincing in
the immediate suburbs of Washington,
but the honest Virginia yoeman failed
to be impressed.
.The hell you are9" he responded,
and whipped up his horse. drove on.
In the meantime the recalcitrant ami
NAL in the Buens Vista team came to
his senses, and permitted himself to be
driven into Buena Vista. Finding that
his passengers had not put in an ap-
pearance the colored Jehu organized q
relief expedition, and started back in
search of them. Good fortune direc-
ted him to the whereabouts OF the be-
lated travellers, and just as the first
CLINT of dawn peered over the hills they
were made glad by the coming of the |
team and The ending Of their strange
That is the reason why Mr.. Mcclellan |

Measuring al Enrt.rnnake.

Some interesting computations and
investigations have been made on the
earthquake which disturbed Calcutta a
year ago. This earthquake was regis
tered at nineteen o5servatories in Eu-
rope (the. most distant Of which was
Edinburg, 1870 kilometres from the
epicenter. The seismographs and mag
photographs made records of the distur-
bance, and the average Of the results
obtained indicates that the mean sur
face velocity of the first vibrations
was either nine or eleven kilometres
per second, according to the time ia
ken for Calcutta. These first vibra-
tons, which lasted for twenty-three
minutes, were followed by large, long
periodic oscillations whose velocity
was either 2.61 or 2.76 kilometres per
second. Crossing Italy the complete
wave must have been 81 kilometres in
length, and the height of it's crest
about half metre.

A sADsroRY.
A Brilliant Young man Comes so an
Untimely Death.

One Of the sad and inscrutable
incidents in the drama lite has
cast pail OF sorrow over the hearts
of many people in this city. Why
such things happen is certainly be-
yond human ken.
Tuesday afternoon William O.
DeWolfe, young man employed
on the Ohio River r. R. clerical
force at Parkersburg, was in the
city on his way to New York,
where he was to be reunited for a
short time with his parents, whom
he had not seen for long time.
He was boyishly happy in antic-
ipating the pleasure of the visit and
confded to friend that he had
not had a wink of sleep in several
nights, so engrossed was his mind
over the prospective enjoyment.
Yesterday morning telegram
reached here that De Wolfe was one
of the two men killed in tail end
collision on the Pennsylvania rail-
road near Railway, N. ]. He died
within a short distance of the home
and loved ones be was SO wistfully
eager to see.
This young man was about
twenty-one years OF age, very pre-
possessing in appearance and OF
tine character. Those who saw
him here Tuesday afternoon in
the full flush of his vigorous and
happy young manhood. will have
the picture indellbly impressed
upon their memories.
