RICHMOND. Va, July 16.-The Vir-

A suit brought by George E. Fisher
of New York for a receivership is now
being argued in the Circuit Court at

The explanation of the application
for the appointment of a receiver is
that it was made by the Gould interests
to prevent, as they claim, the disinte-
grafton of the properties.

Will allow anything else to disturb
their serenity during the rest OF the

gagged in a common cause ever get the
best results without an occasional ex-
plosion. Unbroken peace is likely to
lead to lack of interest and an occa-
sional row. while it can never be COM
mended, may serve to put ginger into
affairs, with ultimate benefit to the
States interest. However, the will of
the county organization is to step on
the head of anything that looks like
dissension and pull with the State
commissioners to secure the best re-
suits for California, from San Diego
to Siskiyou," as California statesmen
of the old school are likely to say. and
both San Diego and Siskiyou and all
the space that lies between are repre-
sented at the exposition. "One for all

Catherine Reynolds. widow Of DR..
John Reynolds of Shepherdstown. Mrs.
Reynolds is seventy years old, while

There is a youthful romance back Of

railroad brakeman he became a suitor
for her hand. He proposed 10 the
young lady, whose maiden name was
Catherine Cushwa. She was willing
but the family. which was one of the
most prominent in Washington county
Md, objected because he was only a
poor railroad man. Davis disappeared
and she later married Dr. Reynolds
Mrs. Reynolds has two grownup chill
dren and half dozen grandchildren.
