A PECULIAR SUIT
Alleged Damages on Account of Mis-
representation in Sale oflnsurance Co.


Special Dispatch to I'heT:mes.1
NEWPORT NEWS. VA, November 8.
Suit was instituted this morning in the
Circuit Court by II w. DOYLE. of Nor.
folk. a gainst Rev. Lemly. r. Wright, pas
tor Of Lafayette .Avenue BAPTIST Church
ard Dr. Clarence Porter Jones, for the
recovery Of $50.
The basis of the suit is alleged misrepre-
sscntation by the defendants TO the plain
tiff relative to the amount Of business
OF the Virginia Mutual Insurance Associ-
alton of which theMfefendantss We're the
o.ticers and which was sold to the plain
tiff.
Nlr. Doyle's claim is that it was repre-
scented to him by Mr.. Wright. who was
president. and DR.. Jones, who was treas
llrer of the company, that it had a collec-5
ton debit of s36 weekly, and was a pay
Ing business. Upon this understanding he
purchased the business and after taking
charge he found that it was not paving,
and that really the olectiong debit was
si3 per week, and that i'll addition to what
he paid for the business he has lost in
salaries and expenses about 500. which
lie paid TO Keep the business going.
The defendants, it is understood. will
defend the suit upon the claim that the
purchase was made upon the showing
made by an examination of the books of
the concern. and that if any mistake was
made. it was that of Mr.. Corprew. the
manager of the affair, and that they
had settled With him upon a basis of sSG
per week, and they We're as much mis-
lead as Mr.. Doyie.

The Debutanfe.

THO Tem.antc sat Mt the table wide.
With an elderly youth on either SIDE.
And she listened and listened to what
they said;
And drooped her eyes and $lns ner
Aud ,nl1cred her laces and rustlcd her
silk.
And visited her glasses and crumpled
her bread.
And drank her soup with tiny spoon,
And Used her knives and forks TOO
soon,
And round herself with uncrding shame
With an oyster fork when the coffee
came,
But her hair was gold and her eyes We're
blue.
+ And her teeth were pearls; and we'll
she knew
That mamma had paid a mighty price
For her gown and her gloves; and they
both We're nice
And sho wondered and wondered II men
And She found they did, for they told
Her little heart nuttered within her
And she dropped her eyes and turned
away,
And yearned and yearned for something
to say.
But the hostess gathered the ladies'
eyes.
And by ones and twos she saw them
rise;
And she wondered and wondered how
they oculd know.
With one accord. just the time TO go.
Her little knees shook; but she did her
best
She pushed her coffee cup out of sight.
fThe corfec was strong and black as
night.
ehe turned her head with a timid grace,
And rearnne look upon her face,
She nuttered her laces and rustled her
silk:
And she said: How wish I had some
nlilll!''
Then she smiled at the two as she turn
ed away.
with an air of pride She had said her
say.
and her hair was gold. and her eyes
were blue.
And her gown was good So they said.

BURIED AT SEA.

Captain c. A. Johnson of the schooner
King Cyrus suffered a painful bereave-
ment on the last voyage of the schooner
from the Pacific coast to Australia. His
wife who accompanied him on the voy-
age died while at sea and as there was
no means on the vessel of preserving
the remains until the end of the voyage
they We're committed to the deep. Cap
tain Johnson has been coming to this
port for good many years and he has
great many friends and acquaintance
here. None of these knew of the loss
he had suffered until the arrival of the
schooner here a week ago from New
castle.
Mrs. johnson was not we'll when she
sailed with her husband. But she had
sailed with him most of their married
life, and was so 10th to be separated
from him that in spite of the advice Of
physicians she undertook the voyage.
But her illness increased in severity
and she died and was buried ait sea.
