IHE PUNISHMENT OF THE CADETS.
The board of visitors of the Nir-
Sinis Military Institute last week or
dereG the reinstatement of the 80
dismissed cadets npon the following
conditions:
First-That they shall not be eli
gible to appointments MS officers un-
I'll after the expiration of period of
sixty days.
Second-That they shall be de-
prived of all privileges that are usu-
ally granted to the class TO which
they belong.
Third-That they shall each be
required to perform ten hours of pen
atty duty, and be on strict probation
until the end of the session.
Fourth-That they shall not be
publicly graduated. aud that the di-
Plomas of those who may qualify for
them shall be awarded in such a
manner and at such time ~ the sup
-rlntendent may determine. not ear
her than September !, 1899.
Fifth-That when they report for
duty they shall sign such articles of
establishment as the superintendent
may prescribe.
All the members of the dismissed
class who were in Lexington were
bronght singly before the board and
'gldly examined in regard to the mo
uVes which prompted them in com
uniting the excessive breach of dis
"lphne. The greatest penalty on
them is their being denied a public
graduation and the withholding of
thelr diplomas. They are greatly re-
lolced. The other members of the
class who were not present have been
selegraphed informing them of their
reinstatement.
The cause of their dismissal was
'he gross disobedience of orders in
defying the officers by a display of
fireworks on the top of the barracks
on New Years eve.

Analysis Of Fertilizer

Commissioner koiner, of the De-
partment of Agriculture, is having
trouble with the farmers, who want
their fertilizers analvzed.
The commissioner frequently re
ceives samples from them containing
samples of fertilizer purchased, but
he cannot have the inspector analyze
them, for the reason that they are
not properly forwarded. OF course.
they could be inspected. but owing to
non compliance with the law. the re-
suit of the analysis so far as benefit
ing the farmer is concerned, would
be MI.
The law states that the sample
must be forwarded in a glass or tin
case, sealed; that it must be taken
from the bag in which it is sold in
the presence of both buyer and seller,
or IN Gaze the latter cannot be pres
ent, a justice of the peace must take
his place; the package must be label
ed and signed by both as fair and
correct sample, giving the name OF
the brand, the man ufacturer, and the
time of the withdrawal of the sample
The same is analysed at the depart
ment, and the result of the ANALYSIS
is returned TO the farmer. If il
shows the fertilizer not as good as
represented by the formula required
to be printed on the sack. the buvel
can proceed against the manufactu
rer. There is no cost to the farmer
save express charges.
Mr.. Koiner receives great man,

not made. as it would be of no val
ne to the farmer, owing to his no
haying complied with the law.

How the Sheep Law Works.


We noticed the other day a little
item from Clarke county reading as
follows:
IN. Pulliam, sheep commissioner
for the county, reported that the
amount collected from the taxes on
dogs WAS sufficient to pay 7S per cent.
OF the losses occasioned by the dep
relations of these animals" IL seems
that Clarke has law similar to that
of Augusta, but we can go that ooun-
ty several better when it comes to
the per centage of the loss we pay to
the farmers. Augusta naturally has
more dogs and gets more tax, whilst
more sheep losses accrue, but in pro-
portion to the dog and sheep popula
ton of the two counties it may be
there is no great difference except AS
to the percentage paid.
Augusta pays dollar for doller of
the value of all sheep killed or
wounded aud has now in her treasury
over 81, 300 to the credit of the sheep
fund. In 1894 this county paid for
37S sheep, in 1895 for 424, in 1896
for. 4O7 and in 1897 for 2O4. Our
county has a good law on this sub
ject, one that every county would do

Many of our citizens heard with
much sorrow on Sunday evening of
the death of Rev. a. Q. Armstrong.
which occurred at his residence in
Rockville, Md, that day. from heart
failure, in the 45th year of his age.
The deceased was pastor of the NJ. f.
Church South. in this place, from
1898 to 1897, where he endeared
himself to his congregation and en-
joyed the high esteem of all who
knew him.
Mr.. Armstrong was born in High
land county, Virginia, where his mo-
Their now resides. He entered the
ministry at an early age, and served,
among other places, 1T Hillsdale Cir
cut, w. Va; Green Bank Circuit,
W. Va; Covington, Va; Stafford Cir
cult, Va; Berryville, Va, and at his
present call, Rockville, for the past
two years. His term had just been
renewed for two years at the last

Tho Meeting OF the q. ".


The regular monthly meeting of
j. 4. b. Stuart Camp of G. V. was
held in Camp Hall last Saturday af-
ternoon.
Circulars from Col. J. j. Williams,
commander Of the Grand Camp of
Confederate Veterans, were received
and read by commander Gold. One
of these circulars we will print in our
next issue, because of the recommen-
dstions it contains aud in order that
they may reach many veterans who
were not present.
A resolution was adopted asking
our representative in Congress to vote
for an appropriation to mark Con-
federate positions on the Gettysburg
battle field. The vote on this reso-
luton was not unanimous, because
some members of the camp did not
approve of spending too much money
on field where their our foes claim
TO have won a great victory.
A resolution was offered authoriz-
ing the chair to appoint a committee
to draft and report resolutions dis
approving of the proposition to pen
sion needy Confederstes. Several
thought AS we were paving taxes to
support the government this and
ought to be extended; some others
thought we had no claim for such
aid: but rs all thought the aid re
ferred u would never be granted the
resolution was voted down.
On account of the low receipts in
the treasury of the camp, which now
aud then has to make appropriations
for needy Confederates. 1t was sug
gested that hereafter when the camp
