We spent few hours here and
were pleased to meet the new man
ager, w. w. Howe, of Carlisle, who
is now in charge, putting things in
order for the season. The hotel is
always open. The date for the for
NAL opening will be announced la
ter.
Mr.. Howe is younger man than
%ee we expected &c sec. He He is not,
however, novice at the hotel bust
ness and will, we trust, add to the
reputation of this attractive and
popular resort.
Mrs. Howe will look after the So
cial features, and Mrs. Bette Kel-
lar, who for IA years was in charge
of the Smith House in Cynthiana
will direct the kitchen and dining
room.
Stanley w. Kellar, son of Green

AFTER THEM.

For the many complaints Of the
real estate owners along the valley
of Hinkston creek concerning the
pollution Of the water by slop
from the McBrayer distillery
comes the excuse in substance,
this: "We could not help il, for
while we slept some dcspoiler OF
property cut our dam and let the
slop out into the stream. Well,
if this is true, 1--WE will not doubt
it, the managers will place guards
and see this is not repeated.
The parties effected are enraged
and will ask redress from the
courts, when the proprietors of the
distillery will have an opportunity
to affirm by evidence their state
ments. The parties guilty, whether
managers Of distilleries or persons
for pure meanness, should be sub
jected to the full penalty of the
law.

Mccormick acted naughtily so
they say, got himself deposed and
now he goes after others. He re-
ally tells about DR.. Lackey loving
a girl attendant and so manifest
was his admiration and attention
that it was talked about, and other
attendants were threatened with
dismission because they would
not associate with his woman.
This is Mccormick talking and
a pretty mess is being stirred up
at the Hopkinsville Asylum. He
also tells about State Inspector
Hines gambling with divers par
ties about the asylum Some
more deposing may be necessary.
If the lives Of those in charge
are in any degree subject to ad

be discharged at once. Nc

Editor Herdld.- In last week g
HERALD the editor aments the de-
structiou of forest and advises tree
planting. 1t may be true that in
some sections of Southside Virginia
that the land is being denuded Of trees
but it is not true of Buckingham
County.
Let not your mind he disturbed, a
thousand trees are growing in Buck
ingham for every boy who is growing
up to cut them.
If you doubt this statement, go up
on Willis mountain and "view the
landscape DER" the cleared lands will
appear like little garden patches in a
forest-as Gases i'm a desert, if you
choose to vary the simile. From this
place to New Store, a distance Of five
miles, there are scarcely 30 acres of land
i'm cultivation. Along the road from
Concord church to Venable's Bridge is
nearly all wooded country, and above
New Store there are miles Of woods.
agree fully with the editor in saying
that our timber should be shipped in
the finished state rather than in the
log and | know he states facts about
shipments, for these 20 years and more,
from Prospect and other points, of
thousands Of logs Of finest timber, but
am sure he is mistaken in thinking
that the country is likely to be cleared
up any time soon. Now to prove,
if proof were necessary, that our
country is still well wooded, it is
one Of the favorte hunting grounds,
and at the present time the following
hunters are in our neighborhood.

The Atlanta News speaking Of the
company playing "Davy Crockett"
has this to say:
"Davy Crockett was the offering last
night at the Columbia theatre. 1t was
put on in excellent style and kept the
audience well entertained for two and
a half hours. The title role was in the
hands of that veteran actor, James
Morton, whose intelligent portrayal of
the part deserves much praise. The
other characters were in capable hands
and the entire performance was in ev-
cry way meritorious one.
The specialties of Dupont, Miss Mack

with tumultuOus applause.

The fast man Of New York died cry
ing, Take me to sister, the poor girl,
found drunk on the streets of one Of
our cities, cried out "What if mother
should know" and the club mau dy-
ing from the effects Of a murderous
blow, received at midnight, n he was
going from his club rooms to his home,
muttered in his dying hour: want
to 20 home"
When trouble comes, and it comes to
all alike, it is not the gambling hall
nor the wine room, nor yet the palatlal
club, that the soul Graves and cries out
for, but it is sister, mother, home.
When the pulse beats strong aud full
and the healthtide runs high, the
haunts Of pleasure may charm, but how
men and women run from them when
the shadows begin to fall.
"Home, sweet home," is earth's be
resting place, and eternity offers an
eternal one.
