Waiting for a Fortune.

Charles Miller Is a waiter In the Astor
House. New York. According to the
World, he is the best known waiter in
lower New York. Miller has n special
ty-one which has proved valuable as Il
business asset. He never forGets a face.
Once you have given him an order, he
knows you for all time. Come to his
table five years later and he can name
you your f%aytrite brand of sandwich.
Not cven Mrs. Bathurst, in Mr.. Kipling's
tale, was cleverer at remembering his
customers particulars This sort OF
thing is pleasing 10 a restaurants pa
irons. They reward 1t In terms OF com
merce, and the admirable Miller has
prospered.
Miller has been al it ten hours a day
since 1875. He draws u wage OF $50 per
month. The tips of gratifed refreshers.
however, help some. and 1t is not re-
corded that he has ever struck for higher
pay. Now comes the announcement that,
with the arrival of his thirtieth ami
versary he intends to retire. He can
well afford to. He owns a comfortable
estate on the Park Slope, Brooklyn. and
is worth $4,000.
Two others in the Aston House rotunda,
have done fair-to-middltng well. Briggs,
at the oyster counter, is commonly rated
at $4,000, all velvet. Mouren. controller
of destines in the roast-beef depart
ment, has something very surely laid
ava against a rainy day. Each Of
these gentlemen average 50 a day In

Charles Miller, however, holds his
place in the van. He Is believed to be
the richest waiter in the United States.
possibly in the world. He is n landlord
In Brooklyn and is sending n nephew TO
college. The friendly nickles. dimes and
quarters of pleased patrons. the large
proportion of whom are far less pros

Fires in Nelson

NELLY's FORD. NELSON COUNTY,
VA. FEBRUARY 1.-THE dwelling OF Mr..
G. r! Blundell. near sGfeenheld. Va, gas
destroyed by Are atsan early hour Fri
day morning. The origin of the fire Is
supposed to be from a defective iiue.
Mr.. and Mrs. Blundell barely escaped
with their little girl. Mr.. Blundell lost
most of his furniture. Mr.. Rlundell Is
from England and had only been in this
country for a short time.
Mr.. II. G. Page lost a large tobacco
barn by fire here last week. He also lost
his stable a Shot time ago. Both Of these
buildings were full OF feed. He also lost
a lot OF harness and farln1kg tools, Loss
about $500; no insurance. The above fires
are supposed to be the work of an enemy.
DR.. "A, B. Fitzpatrick, who has repre-
sented this county q number of terms N
the Legislature, came near loosing his
dwelling by fire a few days ago. His
bedding caught fire AMI did great damage a,s
to his furniture; but owing to the buildI
ing being brick and the arrival OF several
colored men the house was saved.

TRIP FOR IT

A Joint meeting of the executive com

that it will be accepted.

Teachers and Pensions.

The Dispatch cannot favor any
measure providing n State pension for
retired public school teachers. Teachers
in the public schools do not enlist for
life. With them teaching is a means of
livelihood, and as a rule they do not
hesitate to give 1t up when they can find
more profitable or agreeable occupation.
But If the Virginia teachers desire to
create a fund out of their own allowance
to provide n means of support to those
who have spent twenty-five years of
their life in the work. and who have be-
come incapacitated, we a see no OBJ
lection to 1t. In fact, 1t seems to us
hat It would be good policy on the part
of the state to aid and encourage them
in such an undertaking. There are
teachers In the service who have worn
themselves out and should be retired. But
human nature is human nature, and mem
bers of school boards cannot find It in
their hearts TO turn such teachers adrift
when they are dependent on their own
labors for support. The case would be
different II the teachers themselves raised
a retirement FUND to provide for such
emergencies.
