The Case OF Buford VS.. the Town
ArrueeI. Dut Not Decided.

PETERSBURG, VA. September s.
Especial 1.-THE case of Frank Buford, vs..
the town of Lawrenceville. was argued in
the Circuit Court Of this city, before
Judge B. A Hancock this evening, by
Robert Buford for the town of Lawrence
ville.t and E. P. Buford, for the plaintiff.
on a motion made by the town to dissolve
an Injunction which had been awarded
the plaintiff to restrain the town from
removing the stairway to his storehouse
on Main street in Lawrenceville. on the
ground that the former owner of the
storehouse, from whom Mr.. Buford pur-
chased the property, encroached upon the
alley Of the town.
The chief point argued in the case was
as to the public character of the alley,
and the powers of the town council.
Judge Hancock took the case for con-
s;dera ton. and will render his session at
his term of the Circuit Court of Bruins
wick county.
a motion was also argued this evening
for a writ of error and new trial in the
case Of David Palmer coiored. convicted

lonious assault, and given five years in
the penitentiary Judge Hancock also

A division Of the Presbyterian Synod
Of Virginia will, in all probability, be
effected at the 115th annual session of
the body. which will be held next month
in Norfolk. $50
synod is made up of the two States Of
Virginia and West Virginia, of the Dis.
trict Of Columbia and of q pc-ucn CT
Maryland. It will be no little trouble
for West Virginians to travel across
country to Norfolk in order to secure
representation at the synod. Hence
there is a growing sentiment in favor
of a division. and considerable discussion
this time. It is proposed to split the
body at some point IN the neighborhool
of the Blue Ridge. allowing that por-
ton of the synod beyond the mountains
to establish an organization OF its own.

1t is said that in RhOdesia white ants
destroy boots and articles of clothing
left on tables or hanging on nails. The
following is from letter received re-
Gently from South Africa: "On awak-
ing in the morning you are astonished
to see a cone shaped object on the
brick floor short distance from your
bed with two holes at the top. On
closer examination you discover that
the holes have just the size and shape
OF the inside of your boots, which you
incautiously left on the floor the night
before. They have given form and pro-
portion to an ant heap, and nothing is
eft of them except the nails, eyelets
and maybe part of the heels"

Often the attorneys had complained
because he would not set apart an
entire day every so often for the ex-
elusive purpose of hearing divorce
cases, and on those days running
through n large number. He had
steadfastly declined to do so.
Judge Gest said a short time ago
a case came up in Rock Island coun-
ty, where a woman was asking for a
divorce on the grounds of repeated
cruelty. The woman was placed up
on the stand, and her attorney by a
lot of leading questions, in which the
woman always answered in the affir-
NATIVE, went over the ground and
then asked the court if he did not
think sufficient grounds had been
proven. Judge Gest replied, mo,
don't know anything about this case
yet. / will ask some questions my
self" Then he inquired of the woman
if her husband had struck her and
she said he had. He wanted to know
whether it was with the fist or open
hand. She replied with the open
hand. Judge Gest then asked her to
tell how il happened, and she said
they were at the dinner table at the
time and were ''jawing" each other,
when he came around to her side of
the table and slapped her in the face.
Judge Gest said, what did you do
them" The woman said. Il got up
and shook my fist in his face and
dared him to do it again" Judge
Gest said, you can't get n divorce
in this court" The woman rising
from her seat and assuming a defiant
air said, 81 came here for Il divorce
