soldiers during the famous Wilson raias that occurred about April l, ls65, Just A little prior to the closing of the war. is will be remembered that the Episcopal church in this city was burned after Ihe close of the war by Federal soldiers. who were stationed here. It Is thought that if the church in Selma can recover damages for a church that was burned during the war this parish could cer- tainly recover something for the church that was burned in this city after the war.
 In 1872 an effort was made by the ehurep here to recover damages from the gov | ernment for the burning of their builqs ing, as is shown by the minutes of A vestry meeting held April 30, 1872. which says: "On motion, F. $. Lyon. D. M Prout and J. R. Robertson were appoint- ed a committee to prepare case for Congress, relative to burning of church"
 It is not generally known whether tho case was ever brought up before COpFl gress. However. there are those who do know. and if the effort was cafrie& through and failed at that time, 1t might have been because it was too soon after the conflict, and the feeling between tha North and South was still running high.

 Permission was granted by the United States government to stop all navigation on the Cumberland for period Of six weeks as the work on the spans will interfere materially with the running of boats. Fortunately a time was chosen when the stream is low and the hind rance to the boats will be at the mimi mum. - E.

Rolling stock for freight traffic Is also being added stead- fly to the present equipment. The busi- ness of the road Is showing constant and wonderful increase and the prospects for even a greater amount of traffic ahead will make this additional equip ment of inestimable value.

SIX MORE INDICTED
GRAND JURY REPORTS IN POS
 TAI INQUIRY.
Names of Those Against Whom True Bills Are Found Not Di- vulged, as Arrests Have
 Not Been Made.

Washington. Sept. &-After deiiberat- ing for several weeks over Q mass of
 documents submitted by the postoiiice inspectors the Federal Grand Jury in
 this city returned seven indictments to-
 day in postal cases, involving six differ ent persons.
 | All the indictments were kept off the
 district attorneys office and of the
 Postoffice Department refused to discuss
 names or details of the indictments un- 1 til the persons indicted are arrested. The identity of the indicted individuals thus
 was left matter of conjecture. It is expected that arrests win occur tomorrow morning and that the Post office Department will have some an
 nouncement to make during the fore noon.
 The Grand Jury's action probably
 marks the beginning of the end of the
 investigations that have been in pro- gross since the middle of last March. voluminous evidence has been laid before the Grand Jury as the result of the inquiry and while the present report of the jury disposes of most of the cases. there yet remains several cases to be passed upon. When the latter are dis posed of, according to Postmaster Gen. eral Payne. the investigation so far as the work at Washington is concerned, will be at an end. Several of the persons
 indicted to-day live outside of Washing ton.
 Postmaster General Payne and Fourth
 Assistant Bristow received word of the Grand Jury.s action shortly after that
 body reported. and subsequently, they
 had long conference on the subject
 Both officials refused to divulge details
 pending official notification of arrests.
 Two other important events occurred to-
 day in the postal inquiry.
 Leopold Stern, the Baltimore contrac- tor, who disappeared from Baltimore be- fore he could be arrested on an indict- ment; returned July 31. last, was located at Toronto, Can, and the long delayed
 surrender of George W. Beyers. the for mer head of the salary and allowance division to the New York authorities took place. The postal officials have been searching for Stern ever since he disap- peared. and finally received word from the Canadian authorities that he is in Toronto.
 They expressed considerable vexation at the premature publication of his
 of extradition that now confronts the
 making good his escape now that the in- formation has become public in ad-
 vance of the readiness of the authorities

CURIOUS GERMAN COLLIES.
Kew Brees Of Dogs wheipsd By
wolves That Are Superior for
fhs leading of Flocks.

German shepherds. having had diff
hculty in getting dogs that were not
lazy and pampered, the German Col
lie club attempted TO improve the
breed. The best dogs in the country
were collected and bred with wolves
from Ia Ardennes, with the result
that a stronger race of sheep dogs
cam into existence. Two specimens
of these dogs have been brought to
this country by Samuel w. Portyce,
a st. Louis railroad man, who Is a
dog fancier. These dogs, says the
New York Herald of recent date. are
very much like the wolf in their ap-
p~earance. They have the pointed
ear, the keen eye and the restless
ways of their wild ancestors. The
elder of the two, Stella, is I'VE years
old and is of a tawny yellow color.
wolf il ~well-named, for he has all
abe characteristics of his grandmoth-
er, a she wolf. He is nine months
old. Both 0I the dogs have been
trained TO take care of sheep, and
they can round up a flock in short
order. Like the wolf, they refuse to
-ieep nut IN daytime and never SO
happy as when circling around their
charges at night.
Bringing Of the specimens to this
country was attended with difficulty.
They were purchased from shepherds
an the neighborhood of Mannheim,
who were not inclined TO part with
them until a large sum had been Of
fered' as they said that animals of
any real value were scarce.

Owners Of pure-bred registered an.
imals are often bothered by the ques-
ton OF how best to mark them, TO dis
tinguish them in case they stray, and
60 establish their identity under any
circumstances. The central expert
ment farm at Ottawa. Ont, suggests
t%sttooing in place Of the more usual
branding. The branding iron not only
frequently leaves an unsightly and dis
figuring scar, but it fails to serve every
purpose, since IL indicates the owner
rather than particularly identihes the
animal. The tag and button devices
commonly used in the ear are usually
a source of annoyance. due to the
aptitude they display for attaching
themselves to everything they may be
brushed against.
