Oldest Church in the Country.

The oldest Protestant church in the
United States is st. Luke's, at Smith
field, Va, writes William Z. Curtis, in
the Chicago Record-Herald. st. Luke's
was erected in 1882, and was restored
in 1894 as nearly as possible to its
original condition and appearance. 1t
is beautiful old structure, of early
English Gothic, with mullioned win
dows and stately tower, and has been
used for public worship almost con-
tinuously for 21a centuries. The orig
inal church erected on jamestown Is
land by the first English colonists in
North America, under Capt. John
Smith-the church in which Pocahon-
tas was baptized and married-has all
disappeared, except picturesque, ivy
clad tower of black, surrounded by
grove of trees.

Interesting Injunction Case Decided.

On last Monday Judge Jackson decided
the Injunction case of the Pocahontss
Light and Water Company vs.. ]. S.
Browning, and entered a decree perpetu.
ating the injunction.
The controversy began about the LIST Of
February, 1901. A short time previous to
that date ]. S. Browning purchased a val
liable boundary of land just South of Pc.
cahontas, in Abbs Valley, from A. St.
Clair. The water supply Of Pocahontas is
taken from Abbs Valley, and is conveyed
in pipes part of the distance over the
land which Browning purchased of st.
Clair. The pipes were placed there with.
out any written or verbal consent of St.
Clair. When he conveyed to Browning no
reservation was made in favor of the Pc.
cahontas Light and Water Co. to occupy
and use the lands with its pipes.
When the Southwest Virginia Improve
ment Company tore away the coal tipple
which Browning had been using as a Ii.
cense for a number of years, Browning de.
termined to retaliate by tearing up the
water pipes that were placed upon his
land by the Pocahontas Light aud Water
Company, that company having acquired
its rights from the Southwest Virginia Im.
provement Company.
Browning went upon the ground with
force of hands and began to tear up the
pipes; but the Light and Water Company
swore out warrants, arrested him and sued
out injunctions in Virginia and West Vir.
gina TO restrain him from further interior
ence with the pipes until the questions
could be finally determined by the courts.
The injunction in Virginia was granted by
Judge Geo. A, Cassell, of the Hastings
Court, of Radford The Injunction in
West Virginia was granted by Judge Jos.
eph NJ. Sanders. These injunc;ions were
sued out on the End day Of Feb, 1901.
Since that time great leal of testimony
has been taken, and the case in this State
and West Virginia has been passed upon
in the last few days by both courts.
Judge Sanders last week entered de.
cree dissolving the injunction; and Mon
day Judge Jackson ordered the entering of
decree perpetuating the Injunction. The
Pocahontas Light and Water Company
will take an appeal from the decree enter.
ed by Judge Sanders; and Col. Browning
will take an appeal from the decree Of
Judge Jackson. If the Court of Appeals
in West Virginia sustains Judge Sanders
and the Court of Appeals in Virginia sus.
tains Judge Jackson, Browning will bave
the right to tear up the water pipes on his
land in West Virginia but will not be per.
mitted TO interfere with those in Virginia.

A Runaway.

What might have been frightful run
away was narrowly averted at this place
on Tuesday morning last at about 1914
o'clock Mrs. j. c. Compton and three
of her children, who live on Cove Creek
about fifteen miles east of this place. haC
been on visit of several DAYS to relatives
in Thompson Valley, and on their return
home stopped in town short while tc
purchase some furniture. After making
their purchase and placing the furniture in
their hack they again started on their
journey. While attempting to cross the
street car track just in front of the Coffee
House in some way one the front wheels
of the hack caught against the car track,
causing the wheel to screak as it slid along
the steel railing of the track. This fright
ened the horses, which began to plunge
frantically about. Mrs. Compton put forth
her utmost strength in a desperate en-
deavor to bring the frightened animals
again under control, but to no avail. The
left front wheel on the hack was smashed
into smithereens during the meelee and
the other was thrown under the hack in
such way as to make it practically inn
possible for the frightened horses to make
any Roadway with the vehicle and its &C.
cupants. Just at this juncture the Oldest
one of the children, young girl about 10
years old, leaped over the dash board with
her infant brother in her arms, and with
the exception of few slight bruises, both
escaped without injury. Raleigh, the ii
year old son, was thrown from the hack to
the ground, but escaped with only slight
injury to his right arm. As the frightened
horses plunged by the Republican" office
the left hind wheel struck violently against
the walk, throwing Mrs. Compton head
long from the vehicle to the walk. She
was thought to be seriously injured, but
when helped to her feet this fear was soon
for she too, had received but
slight injury. The horses were stopped by
Mr.. James Rudd at his blacksmith shop
just south of the Republican" office, and
about one hundred yards from where they
became frightened. Most of the furniture
in the hack was completely destroyed. A
message was sent by telephone to Mr..
Compton telling of the accident, and he
came at once to town and accompanied
his family home,
