Many conflicting reports may be heard
in regard to the manner in which the
dreadful affair took place, but as nearly
as can be determined the facts are as
follows A man by the name of Frank
Forester who has been working for Mr..
Brogan for some time as camp packer
owed Brogan 800, which he was to
work out, and there was some misunder-
standing as to its settlement. Friday
Brogan was thrown from his horse and
hurt very badly, so that when Forester
wished settlement Saturday his en-
ployer asked that it be lett until Sunday,
when he would be feeling better, and it
was so decided.
Saturday night Mr.. tBrogan was in
Silvertooth'a saloon in Antelope, when a
man nicknamed "Slim," another man,
Mexican, and Forester entered. AS
they stepped to the bar, Brogan was in
vited to take drink, but he refused,
saying he did not feel we'll. In a short
time a man named Frank Gumm and
Forester began quarreling, when the
former knocked the latter down. "Slim''
then took a hand and pulled Gumm off
| of Forester. McRae, who was in the sa-
loon at the same time, in turn separated
''Slim'' and Gumm. At this juncturc
Brogan, who had previously stayed in
the back part of the room, walked to the
front, and ''Slim" thinking he meant to
leave, picked up chair and was about
to knock him down, when McRae in
terferred, Forester then made dash
at Brogan with knife stabbing him in
the heart. He lived but about two
minutes after.
The murderer then dashed out of The
saloon and escaped. Sheriff Brown a
: once sent posse in pursuit. but nj
: word has been received as to the result
of their search.
"Phil" Brogan is a man of about 8
e years, and was perhaps as widely known
as any man in the county, having beer

shocked to learn of the murder of one

The fact that the foundry and ma

were idle. have been in operation for

and that new enterprises, in the shape
of large cannery. a broom factory, Il

progressive spirit which animates our
people. The new b. Il J.. building now

in the town. Let Us give the warmrst
encouragement to every enterprise start
ed among us. Many towns in their
zeal to grow look for something large
in the shape of railroad machine shops
or some large factories that will en-
ploy hundreds Of hands. These may be
desirable in some places, but in many
cases, instead OF building up town
permane ntly, encourage large invest
ments, which result in the loss OF inn
mense amounts Of capital and con-
sequent stagnation Of business.
Let us encourage the small
enterprises and make them not only
successful. but a permanent part OF our
town. Examples, in abundance, show
where railroad shops have not only
built up, but haze destroyed the towns
which they helped to build.

SOCIETY EVENTS.

One ofthe most pleasant social affairs
that has come off in this place for many
days took place on last Friday evening
at the residence of Capt J. W. Magruder,
on Court street
Many Of our young society people
were present and as every heart was
bent on pleasure most Of them repaired
to the large room at Bargelts Mullen
burg Hall and Restaurant on the oppo'
site side Of the street, where to the music
of Skaters orchestra they merrily dane
ed away the hours which passed far too
swiftly. Seldom was the music still or
the sound of the light footsteps hushed
as they keep rhythmic time on the polish
ed floor to the strains of the waltz and
quadrlle
Every countenance beamed with plea
sure, and fair glrlish faces, always beau
tiful, looked ravishingly so as they
whirled in the pleasure giving dance.
As the night advanced the gallant
young men and their fair partners, re-
paired to the dining hall and were sery-
ed with appetizing substantials and de-
liciOus refreshments, such as only Mr.
Bargelt and his Muhlenburg Restaurant
can furnish.
Tired but happy the party separated at
an early hour in the morning, sorry that
these hours Of happy enjoyment could
not be more than doubled.

Confederate Reunion.

The reunion OF the Confederate Vet
Grams at Fishers Hill on Saturday un-
der the auspicies of Slower Camp, Of
Strasburg, was a granl success in every
way.
The crowd present was estimated by
persons thoroughly familiar with the
gath erngs at this point as the largest
eyer on these grounds, and that be-
tween 5000 and 1000 persons were pres
ent.
The old COniederates we re much in
evidence, and these old war Scared
heroes. many Of whom had not met for
years. greeted each other with those
heart felt emotions that only those can
feel who have stood .houlder TO shoulder
during four years baptism OF blood and
fire. starvation ana weary marching.
Four or five bands. all i'm uniform,
were present, and added much 10 the
endowment OF the crowd. Hundreds Of
beautiful and handsomely dressed young
ladies were on the grounds, and Is Il
matter of course were the great attrac
ton for the other sex.
Everything good to eat was to be
found in the greatest abundance. Slower
Camp had good dinner for all the old
lConfederates and band members, treat
ing them royalty as they always do. II

The only drawback to the pleasures OF
the day was the utterly inadequate prep
arations of the railroad TO haul the
crowd. The train from llarrisonburg
had but four coaches, which were soon
packed to Overflowing. even ladies and
children being compelled to ride on the
crowded platforms.
