"'Bull' Andrews, member of con-

to keep warm a seat in the house of

wants in the way of political prefer

Emergency Medicines.

1t is a great convenience to have
at hand reliable remedies for use in
cases of accident and for slight in
juries and ailments. A good liniment
and one that is fast becoming a ia
vorite if not a household necessity,
is Chamberlain's Pain Balm. By ap-
plying it promptly to a cut, bruise or
burn it allays the pain and causes the
injury to heal in about one-third the
time usually required, and as it is an
antiseptic it prevents any danger of
blood poisoning. When Pain Balm is
kept at hand a sprain may be treated
before Inflammation sets in, which
insures a quick recovery. For sale by
all druggists.

The Mccue Trial.
CONFLICTING TESTIMONY - DAMAG
ING ACCUSED.

CONFLICTING TESTIMONY - DAMAe
ING TO ACCUSED.
At last the trial of Samuel McC ue
for the murder OF his wife. has been
launched in Charlottesville. For more
than week the court. in getting q
venire of 16 men, summoned them by
fifties successfully from Petersburg,
Richmond, Fredericksburg and War
rentOn. The large majority of all these
persons from so many different cities
believing in the prisoners guilt, shows
how widely this already celebrated
case has become known. Tuesday
at 10 o'clock the trial was really begun
by the examination of DR. F. G. McCue,
brother of the accused, who was the
first to enter the house. The next wit
ness was DR.. G. S. Venable, who reach
ed it an hour after the tragedy. His
evidence was very damaging to the
prisoner and conflicted with that of
DIR. McCue as to the nature of the in.
jury on the face of the prisoner, whic b
be regarded as so slight 1t could not
have been made by a heavy weapon or
have produced Inconsistencies.
Mr.. Demott, city engineer, as a wit
ness, presented drawings of the Nc
Cue residence, and then, accompanied
by the jury and the prisoner led the
way to the house, McCue showed no
signs of emotion as he went over the
premises, where he is presumed to
have been SO violent an actor. but bis
face wore a wan and haggard appear
ance. Charles Skinner, the negro, who |
was in his room on the next lot where |
the murder occurred, being called,
said be heard crying and screaming
and then gun shot, and then all was
silent. DR.. J. E. Early, who next tes-
titled, gave damaging testimony as to
the light character Ut the ''slight |
ABRASION on the prisoners face and the
chastity gun shot wound on the body
Of Mrs. McCue. The piece of bloody
shirt, was pronounced by expert cloth
ers, Eddlngs and Coffman, to be of
,he same quality and material as
hat worn by the prisoner on the fatal
hight and to correspond to the hole in
lis bloody garment.
The examination Of witnesses Is pro.
seeding we'll in the presence of q
lensely packed court room, many
aides being interested spectators. Mr..
Harmon being dangerously Ill. has re-
Ired from the case on the demand of
lis physicians and Mr.. j. Tinsley Cole
nan, another lawyer Of Lynchburg,
las taken his place. The most dam
lging evidence expected has not yet
developed.

Buttons.

Mr.. J. H. Bell of Waynesboro, who
has been travelling for his house among
the mining towns in West Virginia
was in Staunton court day and
brought news of an encouraging Demo
cratic outlook. He visited Thurmond,

was surprised to notice among the
miners particularly, the preponder-
ance of Democratic sentiment. He
drew his conclusions from the large
number OF Parker and Davis buttons.
which he noticed the miners wore and
the comparatively few Roosevelt but
tons they decorated with, of course. he
could speak to only few, but the but
tons told the tale.
Mr.. Bell attended two party rallies
at CharlestOr, and there again was a
surprise. The Republicans gave a
free boat excursion on the river, big
dinner. &c. and were we'll patroniZed,
but when they called "the Faithful to
the feast of reason" they did not re-
spond and there was a meagre spirit
less crowd. The Democratic rally was
at night and the crowd was immense
with great enthusiasm. If all West
Virginia is like the part of the State
Mr.. Bell visited, he feels warranted in
predicting a victory for Parker and
Davis in the mineral state.

Closer Relations Between Northern and

Hebron, DR.. j. W. Rosebro of Freder.

others.
Mr.. Baker preached an admirable
sermon, which revived fond memories
with many of his former charge and
many eyes were wet with tears. Hon.
J. A. Waddell presented a valuable
paper, an historical sketch of thu
century's life of the First Church ant

spot, where some of the enemy were
seen, a shell, which to his surprise did
not explode. The ex.sergeant deter
mined to investigate and. climbed the

shell lying on the spot under the fallen
leaves of 43 winters. He could have
