From a Distant City.

lowing letter from Capt. Chas. 8. Ar
nall, of Atlanta, Ga, who for many
years resided here and has ALWAYS
taken warm interest in his old home
and friends:
Atlanta, Ca, July 6, 1901.
Capt. Jas. II. Waters, Staunton, Va.
My Dear Sir-A great surprise came
to me this morning when / read in
the SPECTATOR that the city council
had failed to elect you again as chief
OF police, but I rejoice that no one bad
any charge to bring beyond the fact
OF your age. | have known you for
forty-three years, four of them we spent
together in the Confederate army and
IN positions where we were brought in
daily contact, and have yet to hear
any one say that you in any way and
anywhere ever failed to do your duty
and your full duty. l had hoped YOU
would be retained in your position
until the end came to a well spent life.
This has been denied you, but you can
certainly comfort yourself in your
iuty well done May our good God be
Is kind to you in the future as be has
'een in the past, is the prayer of YOUR
I'D friend and comrade,

Shot by His Father-in-LaW.

A fatal shooting ARRAY occurred at
Pedee, small settlement on the out
skirts of Shenandoah City, on
Saturday evening, the parties to
the ARRAY being Alexander G overstone
and William ShippIett. 1t is alleged
that Coverstone, who had been on a
protracted spree, went to the home of
Shipplett to see his wife, who was a
daughter OF Shlpplett, and who had
been making her home for some time
with. her father on account of cruel
treatment from her husband. When
Coverstone arrived at the Shipplett
home he was refused Abundance, and
be tried to enter the house by force.
when Shipplett drew his gun and fired,
the load of shot lodging in Coverstone's
stomach.
CoVerstone fingered until Monday
morning, when he died. Before his
death Coverstone made his brother.
Calvin Coverstone, take an oath that
he Woald revenge his death. Immedi-
ately after the shooting Shipplett went
to Shenandoah to surrender to the au.
thorities, but failing to find the town
sergeant left, but be was arrested the
next day. Shipplett, it is said,
has no fear but that the law will iusti.
fy the killing, but is afraid of violence
from Coverstone's friends. Shipplett
is about tifty-fve years of age, while
Coverstone was about ten years young
or, and is survived by wife and two
children.

The forty-eighth year of Roanoke

Koreans were enrolled, among the
latter being H. 1. H. Prince Euiwha
second son OF the Emperor of Korea.
Roanoke has library of $4,000 vol

Letter from Councilman Stewart.

Capt. j. H. Waters, Staunton, Va.
My Dear Captaln-Having learned
that you felt aggrieved and hurt by
the statement made by me at the last
meeting of the city council in connec.
ton with the election of chief of DO
lice OF the city Of Staunton, and wish
ing to say that l would not willingly
hurt the feelings of any one and es-
pecially of yourself, 1 am voluntarily
writing this letter to say to you that /
regret in the excitement and irritation
OF the moment having said what l did.
l would add further that l admire
your record as a Confederate soldier.
l think that you have made a good
chief of police, and that no charge
which or any other man might prefer
against you could in any way involve
your character as a gentleman. And
l will say in conclusion, what l have
not deemed 1t necessary to say here
tofore, that voted for your re election
as chief of police in the caucus pre-.
ceding the council meeting You may
make such use as you please of this
letter. Yours very truly,

COST OF COURTS.

One thing should be remembered
when the salaries of our judges are
liked, and that is, that the position of
Commissioner in Chancery is often a
better Office than that OF Judge. In
one circuit where judge must decide
thousands of cases we have known a
commissioner to receive in fees more
money by nearly three times for work
done by him on dozen or so of cases,
than the judges whole salary amount
ed to. Of course the size of commits
sloners fees sometimes depends upon
The Judge. II the commissioner knew
the Judge would allow no exhorbitant
fee, he might not put in one, but law
yers dislike to object to the fees, and
judges dislike to refuse the payment
unless objection is made, so most any
sum, no matter how much goes. If
possible there ought to be some check
put on this lavish expenditure of
money. The fees of commissioners in
some OF the courts in this State is
scandalous, and if the actual money
paid out to this class of people through
out the Commonwealth was known the
people would almost rise IN arms. 1t
is supposed that judge is paid to
decide all cases before him. This is
not true, other men are put at the
the work, often the most Indifferent
lawyers as well as Indifferent men, full
Of prejudice, bias, and possibly cor
rupt. These decide the cases for the
Judge, these often get enormous fees and
there are not usually taken into ac-
count when cost of litigation is fgur-
I'd on.

Train-Robber Searcy.

Governor Tyler has received letter
which shows that the noted train-rob
Der Searcy, who is now serving term
in the penltentiary for holding up and
robbing the train on the Richmond,
Ftedericks burg and Potomac road at
Aqua Creek in 1894, is of good Texan
family. The letter was from Colonel
James Buckner Barry, of Walnut
Springs, Tex, who is the stepfather of
the convict
The writer of the letter tells the Gov
ernor he is nearly S0years of age, and
served in the war with Mexico, and
was a colonel in the Confederate army.
He makes an earnest appeal to the
Governor to pardon the young man,
and says that he will welcome the re-
turn Of the prodigal. He makes no eff
fort to palliate the crime of the man,
but asks the Governor to extend mercy.
Colonel Barry refers to ex-senator Rea-
gan, member of President Davis IS Cabi-
net, as to his standing In Texas. There
is no likelihood of the Governors tax
ng any action in the case, as the time
of Searcy will expire in abont six months.
