A CORRECTION.

Our friends OF Weems steamer Essex

count OF the drowning of VIM. Payne, in
that we said no one seemed to know ex-
actiy what to do. No slur was intended,
Far from 1t. We know that finer never
strobe the deck than Capt. Arch Long,
but we did not deem him Jack OF all
trades. Now that we learn he did the
right thing, and all there was to be done,
we beg pardon, and assure all that wish
to attemptdrowning to rest their case in
his hands. Here's to his future success
along this and all other lines.

Danger of Cold. and Grin.

The greatest danger from colds aud grip is
their resulting in pneumonia. If reasonable
care is used, however, and Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy taken, all danger will be
avoided. Among the tens of thousands who
have used this remedy for these diseases we
have yet to learn of single case having re-
suited In pneumonia, which shows conclusive
~ that 1t is certain preventive OF that dang

POLITICAL.

Friends of the President have init
mated to DR.. Crum (colored) that if
he would resign from the Charleston
Collectorship and thus relieve Roose-
welt of embarrassment, he could have
a better job.
Robt. NJ. McLane, organization
candidate, was nominated by the
Democrats over Mayor Hayes for
mayor of Baltimore. Congressman
Wachter was nominated by the Re-
publicans. The Democrats are ter
ribly split up.
A Roanoke and Norfolk paper
are making fight on Senator
Daniel. This has raised a howl
from papers and people throughout
the State. The two papers may show
courage, but very poor acumen. The
Richmond Nescs-L Leader says: ave
do not believe there will be any seri-
Gus fight on John w. Daniel. OF
course the newspapers and many in
dividuals will talk about it and bust
ness men and practical politicians
will agree that q business man and q
practical, pushing bundle of energy
and executive ability, like Senator
Martin, for instance, ought to 90 to
the senate from this State in 1905,
when Senator Daniels term will ex-
pire. So practical sense may suggest
to any horse owner that the fine old
thoroughbred that has carried his
colors to victory many times in the
presence of shouting multitudes may
profitably be sold to milk peddler
to make place for some promising
cold; but in such cases practical
sense is crime and good business
Judgment would be an offense against
Heaven and mans soul. We are
not Informed as to what Senator
Daniels condition is or what his
friends have to say for him. Like
many thousands of people in Vir-
ginia, we do not care to hear his
present defense and are willing to let
the past plead his cause and the
years of his service to Virginia come
forward as long array of eloquent
and indisputable witnesses in his
behalf"

the frost, but immediately along the salt

Here no frost appeared at all owing to
