More About the Flag Presentation
Rev. Mr.. Riddick Ill.

PETERSBURG, VA, September L.
Special -Messrs. George NJ. Stone, j.
T.. Buckbee, and J. II. Stevens, the COM
mittee Of the First Michigan Sharpshoot-
ers, who last night returned 10 the
Petersburg Grays the flag of the old
Grays they found in the courthouse in
1865, and sent home "a war trophy, are
enjoying the hospitality or the c.7s To-
day, and are receiving every attention 1t
IS possible to extend TO honored guests.
Many impromptu speeches were made
last night after the formal presentation
ceremonies, all of them appropriate and
in good taste
THEIR RANKS THINNING.
Only five Of the members OF the Grdys
of 1850, when the flag above referred TO
was presented. are alive to-day. They
are Major Thomas II. Bond. Captain A.
Bond, T. j. McCaleb, G.. w Blick, and
Charles Leonard, all venerable in years,
and honored and respected citizens. Three
of them-Messrs. A. Bond, McCaleb. and
Dllck were present at the meeting last
night, and made brief but touching adj
dresses on the old flag. The flag was
made by the two sisters Of Mr.. Blick, one
of whom is living.
II was rather an affecting scene when
the once beautiful banner was unrolled
before the assembly, to see that the
white silk and the bunting had crumbled
into tattered rags and strips, under the
corroding effects OF time. and the feeling
for it was one of combined reverence and
love. The blue and its lettering are IN
perfect condition.

Lexington Not to Have Telephone
Connection With Lyncbburr Yet.

LEXINGTON, VA. September 7.-(Spe-
ciaL)-The scheme for telephone com
municatioR with Lynchburg has for the
present practically fallen through. The

half OF the line. Recently the Lynchburg
company commenced a line 10 Amherst

change from the former route selected.
The Lexington company went over the
newly-proposed route and found that IL
was not practicable for the company TO
not have any intermediate stations on
II. SO for the present the Deal between
the two companies Is OFF.
MICE IN TOBACCO.
A curious mouse-nest was found by
a Lexington merchant in going over his
stock OF smoking tobacco. The mice had
used up three twO-ounce bags OF smoking
tobacco cut hole into a fourth. and
there made a nest In Il was found two
young mice. They did not appear 20 mind
the tobacco I'm the least, and when dis
turbed crawled into the tobacco. what
the mice cid with the contents OF the
three bags. except as 10 a minute guam
