1t being then early it was turned
into Sunday school picnic for the
rest Of the evening. 1t was the last

A Correspondent OF the Richmond
Dispatch writing from Pampins says:
In q very interesting article on the
High Bridge near Fa.mvile your cor
respondent seems at a loss for the rea-
son why such an expensive structure
should have been built. 1t was stated
at The time The bridge was built, by
those who were presumed to know,
tnat the engineer OF the road, Mr. San
ford, Constructed the bridge to keep a
low grade for easi-going freight 50 as
to compete with The james River and
KanaUha canal, which was then in
ex. ence. Whatever may have been
his dc, gn, his expectations were
probably not realized, as IN the years
1854 and 1850 the Southside railroad,
as E. vas then known, only ran single
fret. III train every other day, or three
times q week, and these trains, if my
recollection is correct. only carried as a
rule thirteen cars each.

But let us touch for little while on
some less serious aspects Of the new
managed. The young love him be-
cause he does not come into their pres
ence to depress. His head indeed may
be gray but his heart is young and out
of the fullness Of the heart the mouth
speaketh; 50 that in all things which
beckon youth forward on the beau
teous way of high life, he is with them
not to discourage but to cheer, not TO
prate of better past but to give them
understanding Of that past in order
that the present may be more beautiful
and useful. Age deters him, Of cou.se,
from violent sports that appeal to the
very violence OF the torrent Of life
within the young, but his sympathy is
with them in their eXuberance. They
know it. He knows it, and in the
knowledge they are united in one.
Another bond Of sweetest union be-
tween himself aud the youthful is that
he ever holds his mind open to new
knowledge, new progress, and new the
DRY. Better fitted perhaps than the
young to weigh evidence and sift erro
from truth he is nevertheless quite a.
eager as they to brave difficulty and t'
scorn consistency rather than breal
step with the mountaineering host
of the world.

Seven times one thousand words

almost in mere outlines, sketched him

Words of sObriety~ have been attempted
rather than fanciful pictures. 1t is not
given to all of US in all things to realize
in our own lives all that has been writ

An unusually sad and terrible acct
dent occurred on the oath ullo near
Prospect Depot. Conductor Joe Hub
bard, who was wei known 10 our peo-
pie, having been born in Prince Ed
ward was thrown from The top Of his
cab and instantly killed. Nils train
was west bound and had nearlyreached

the instant stoppiDgof the cars. hThis
threw Conductor Hubbard forward
from his position on top Of the cab,
and he fell between the cars. His re-
mans were carried back to Crewe, and
there prepared for burial. From there
they were taken on Friday to Rice
Depot and deposited in the old family
burying ground. Capt. Hubbard was
about IS years Of age, and married, but
had no children. lie had for num-

Dwelling Burned.

The larm ot fire yesterday morning
about h.llpast > O'Clock was caused
by the burning Of the dwelling house
of Mr. h. Orange. Considering the
time Of Che night, and also that no one
for while would assume the authority
TO direct the fighting of the flames, the
lire was kept remarkably well under
control. Chief RoOeson was late ar
irving ON the. scene and had to leave
soon To make preparations to take the
early morning train he left The con-
troi Of the fire to bis assistant, Mr.. w.
T. Davidson, -yho well directed the
work.
Mr.. Oranges wife and children are
away from omevisiting in the coun-
try, and the only person in the house
at The time Of the fire was the father
of Mr.. Orange. 1t is reported that The
old gentleman had narrow escape
from burning, As the flames were fast
reaching him when some one pulled
him out OF bed.
Ii was mos gratifying that the new
management Of the water works had
an abundance OF water jon the stand
pipe, aud the two streams from the
one plug near the Foundry, were
thoroughly effective. Weare told that
the fire bell had not ceased ringing be-
fore Mr.. kayton, the engineer, had his
engines steamed up for work in case
the need arose.
The loss TO Mr.. Orange will be quite
heavy, as there was only $500 of insur-
ance on house and furniture, and moth
ing scarcely was saved. The origin of
the fire is mystery, as there had not
been any cooking done in the house for
some days and mo- occasion for any fire.

STEAMER PELICAN LOST.
Foundered Near AIeutian Islands
and Crew Lost.

SAN FRANCISCO. Oct. Is.--Advices re-
ceived by the Alaska Commercial Company
today indicate that there can be no longer
any doubt that the British steamer Peli-
can, which left Puget sound in October.
1897. for China. foundered near the Aleu-
tian islands and that her entire crew per-
ished.
The message received today comes from
the Alaska Commercial Company's agent
at Unalaska. 1t IS dated October 6. and
reads as follows:
The Hunter arrived safely the
morning of September % from Unamak.
The Unamak natives say that In ths
latter part OF August one Of them picked
up a bottle tightly corked and breaking
the same. found the Enclosed slip of paper.
announcing that the steamer Pelican Pel-
lean, probably is sinking and boats are
swamped. The natives also picked up a
lot of wreckage. and among them ships
stool, which is now In the possession of
the finder. The bottle and wreckage were
found on the northeast shore Of Unamak
island"
The Pelican carried crew OF forty. un-
der command OF Capt. Gore. A careful
search of the Aleutian coast was made
this summer by the revenue cutter Grant
and a British cutter for possible surviv-
ors. No trace Of any was found.
