A New B. & O. Schedule.

There is a well founded rumor afioat
to the effect that better service will
be given the patrons of the Valley
branch of the Baltimore and Ohio Rail-
way. 1t is proposed to have the train
that now runs from Lexington to Har-
risonburg to continue On about its pres
ent schedule and return from Harrison
burg shortly after its arrival there and
run back to Lexington passing Staun-
ton going South shortly after O'Clock.
Returning it will leave Lexington
about noon go to Harrisonburg and
then make the run back to Lexington.
This will give Staunton two trains daily
both ways. The patrons of the road
earnestly hope for this change.

Good looks are really more than skin deep,

all the vital organs. If the liver is inactive,
you have bilious look; if your stomach is
disordered, you have dyspeptic look; if your
kidneys are affected, you have a pinched
look. Secure good health, and you will surely

Death of DR.. Gibson.

1 DR.. j. st. P. Gibson, one of the old
est and ablest physicians of this city
died Monday morning at 5 O'Clock a
his residence on the corner of Augusta
and Frederick streets, after protract
| ed illness. His family and friends have
long know WI OF his precarious condition
but his vitality was such as to give hope
that he might rally, but this for some
time has been abandoned. His disease
was not we'll defined, but seemed to be
blood poison of uremic character.
| DR.. Gibson was long a resident OF
| Waynesboro, where he married Miss
Mary Wallace, only daughter of the late
Joel Wallace, and sister of Mr.. f. E.
Wallace, of that town. He was a ma
tive Virginian, having been born in
Culpeper county May 18th, 1882. He
was son of Minor Gibson and Eliza
beth Pendleton Shackelford. He grad
uated in medicine at the Maryland
University, and begun the practice of
his profession at Grafton, W. Va, and
left there to enter the Confederate army
and was made surgeon of Pegrams Bri-
gade, in which he served until the close
of the war.
He was physician of splendid at
tainments. Keeping always abreast of
his professisn, and enjoyed a large and
lucrative practice and the,utmOst conf
dence and esteem of the community.
No physician in the city was ever called
oftner into consultation, nor has one re-
sided here in years whose opinions were
more sought, and whose judgment was
more relied upon than his. He was a
member of the First Presbyterian
church and man of marked piety, but
in all things whether secular or relig-
Gus he performed his part without os-
tentation or display. Modest and re-
firing as was his seeming nature he met
the delicate and trying duties of his
profession with vigor and aggressive
ness which at once inspired confidence
in the sick, and in those about him.
He is survived by his wife, his son
and partner. DR.. E. Lacy Gibson, and
his daughter, Miss Bessie Gibson. He
has two brothers living, the Rev. Isaac
Gibson, of Norristown, Pa, of the Epis-
copal church, and Moses Gibson, of Cul-
pepper, Va, and one sister Mrs. Porter,
of Maryland. In his home life he was
the same kindly husband and father
that he was physician and man, and
all through his life ran that elevation of
character. gentlemanly bearing and
honesty of purpose. which made him the
and beloved person that he
was.
He was member of the Masonic fra
ternlty, which body took part in the
obsequies. The funeral was from the
residence Tuesday afternoon at CLOCK,
and was conducted by Rev. A. NJ.
Frazer.
The pall-bearers were H. A. Walk.
