To Tine citizens Of Accomack county

There is now before you the ques-
ton of increasing the county school
fund by an additional levy of one mill
on the dollar. According to resolu-
ton passed by the Board of Supervi-
sors, this question will be decided by
them at their next meeting, May oath,
according to the majority of names
signed to the petitions that may be
circulated for or against this small
levy for schools.
/ desire to submit some figures to
show the present use of the county
school fund, and to explain what
effect this increase will have in help
ing your schools, and thereby benefit
ting your children, in order that
you may clearly see what issues are
at stake. The following shows what
the county exclusive of the district
or State funds) spends for the school
ing of each child per month of school
age, and the increase in length of
school term according to present rates
of pay of teachers, and with the pres
ent members of schools, which the
extra one mill will make possible.

Fire-Resistlng Paint.

The citizens of Onancock were
treated to an interesting and wonder
full exhibit of fire-resisting paints and
roofing materials last week and it was
the universal opinion of all present
that great protection from fire must
be afforded by their use. A house
built like a regular house was painted
inside and out and broken lumber
boxes, seasoned pine, &c. were put on
them inside and out and painted and
all set on fire and allowed to burn off
the combustibles, which had been satu-
rated with two gallons of coal oil.
Wonderful was the verdict and big
sale of these goods must be wherever
people have seen its resisting proper
ties. The paints are in all tints and
colors, of pure linseed oil and lead, and
for sale by J. S. NAPLES, Onancock,
and others. observer

Coiored ninister and Wife Dead OF
Poison.

Rev. George Williams and wife,
worthy colored people, died at their
home, near Accomac G. H., on Monday
and Tuesday, respectively, from the
effects of poison, but whether taken
by them by mistake or Intentionally
is in doubt. No one is accused of hav-
ing committed this crime and there
are no suspicious circumstances con-
Meeting anyone with it. They were in
their usual health on Monday morning
and by 10 o'clock both were in an UNI
conscious condition and neither ever
recovered sufficiently to give an ex-
PLANTATION of any kind. The fact, that
their daughter, the only other member
of the family, was sent from home that
morning and that their sickness oc-
Cured soon after seems to warrant
the conclusion that they committed
suicide. The testimony of DR.. j. ii.
Ayres, the attending physician, before
the coroner's jury was to the effect, that
when he was called to see them Mon
day morning, about O'Clock, he found
them both with symptoms of acute
poisoning, such as constant vomiting,
great prostration, slow pulse and al
most in a comatose condition, which
continued until the death of the man
in about or hours, and of the woman
in about 80 hours. The verdict of the
Jury was that they came to their death
by poison by some means unknown to
the jury.
