An odd Occurrence.

Baby No. 9, came to gladden.
the CHRONICLE household yester-
day morning, at 5 o'clock, Jan. 21,
1898, an s pound girl. Our team
of children is now composed of six
girls and three boys. This last
arrival we are disposed to regard
as an 'odd" occurrence. 1t is not
such an unusual thing for new
baby to come to our house, but 8
is an odd number, you know. Baby
and mother getting along nicely,
and no great change in household
affairs has had to be inaugurated
on account of the new conner. We
add "Grace Constance Goodwyn"
to our Bible record, make room
for an extra place at the freside,
and the "odd occurrence" at our
home is completely harmonized.

Never forget that the individual

Never forget that the individual
effort adds more or less to the gen.
eral prosperity. For this reason
every resident of community
should gladly give of their time
and means to aid in securing pub
lie benefits. Next to the chronic
pessimists there is no class in a
community more hurtful than the
utterly selfish, those wholook after
self above and beyond all else.
Generosity, liberality, pride in do
ing good to ones neighbors, are
what expand, not human nature
alone, but the general good and
welfare of those with whom each
man and woman comes in daily
contact. Great heartedness and
goodness are the strong founda-
tions on which society fourishes.-

HISTORY.

We regard It as good as settled that
our state Board of Education will not
adopt any school history that is objec-
tionable to our people. Barres's and all
others of that class will be rejected
The burning question will not be- What
histories shall be kept off the list, but
What histories shall be put on it! There
are number of southern histories whose
publishers will ask for them the approval
and acceptance of the board There the
board will have to put on it, studying
cap. The situation requires cautious ac-
ton.
Consideration must be given, too, to
the matter of expense. We suppose the
publishers of accepted books will be re-
auired to take the old histories in eX-
change-that is to say, in part payment
for the new books.
OF this we feel sure, thar after the
board has acted in this matter, there will
be no ground for any ones saying that
books that teach bogus history are allow
ed in the public schools Of Virginia.

The large frame storehouse located IN
Pastoral, belonging to T.. =. Byrd d.
Brother, together with the entire stock
on hand, was destroyed by fire early
this morning Mr.. John Byrd, who was
In charge for the day, was absent FOR
few moments. and upon his return Ne
found that the house was on IRE, ana
the flames had made such progress that
he was unable to save even the cash III
the drawer, amounting to about $50. The
heat was so intense that it is feared that
the books and papers, which are of great
value, and all the money in the iron safe
may be destroyed. The fire is supposed to
have originated I'm the upper story Of the
building from a defective fiue. The loss
on stock Of goods will be about 5000. and
on the building about $500, which is
covered in part by a policy for $l.lOO In
the Hamburg Bremen Company.

here tomorrow on the State steamer Ches-
apeake. His excellency will be entertain
ed while here by Robert Hopkins, Esq,
and his charming wife, at their beautiful
home which is delightfully."- located on
the river front i'm this town.
1t is understood that the object OF the
Governors visit to this county Is TO look
into the oyster business, as 1t affects the
State generally. and that he is also IN
search of a man that may measure up
to his ideal as president OF the Board
of Fisheries, recently created by inc
LeCatc bill. DR.. John W. Bowdoin, VINO
was Fish Commissioners under the last
administration. and DR.. Frank Fletcher

the position from this county.
A race riot occurred at Onley, near
this place. on Saturday night. a drunken
negro, who attacked a young white man
by the name of Mears, was the originator
of the trouble. Dozens of both whites
and blacks were drawn into the aHalr'
and the battle waXed furious for halt
an hour. when the negroes broke ana
ran. AS "A result, one of the negro leaders
Tully Parker. will probably die or ms
wounds. Several whites had their heads
split and one young white man received
a severe knife wound.

O. MR. BUTLER, TURN ME LOOSE.
Discord and LitiGuti 1n Among color
ed Unptists of Lynchburg.

LYNCHBURG. VA, March H.-(Spe-
cial)-The trouble which for months past
has been brewing in the Court-Street
Colored Baptist church. and which has
been dragged into the courts. threatened
az one time yesterday TO assume more
warlike aspect. At the morning services
an effort was made to initiate move
ment looking to the bodily removal of
Rev. =. f. Morris, the pastor, but this
not meeting with sufficient encourage
ment, fell fiat, although more or less dis
order prevailed, and to quiet matters a
police officer was called in.
POLICEMAN VS.. PIOUS EXCITEMENT
At the night meeting an attempt was
made to substitute another minister for
the Rev. Morris, but this. also, was un-
successful. and the presence of several
policemen i'm the audience kept things
within bounds, but there was much sup
pressed excitement, both in the church
and outside, where a group Of men dis
cussed the situation. This morning Rev.
Norris and some 25O members of his
CONGREGATION applied to the Corporation
Court for an injunction 10 restrain
Daniel Butler, the leader OF the discOn-
tented faction, and his followers from
any further interference in the matters
connected with the church. The injunc-
ton was granted and the City-Sergeant
ordered 10 take possession of the keys of
the church until the matter is deter
mined.
The church Is divided into two factions
one DESTROYS of getting rid Of their pres
ent minister, the other wishing I" retain
him Both claim a majority. The oppo-
