black clouds approached from the

fury about 3 p. m, subjected our city
and surrounding territory for over an
hour to the worst storm of years. The
wind of cyclonic speed and force, be-

A COUNTRY VISITOR.
The Nea York Man Felt Above Him,
bot CHANGED His Opinion.

One OF the most successful wholesale
dry goods merchants New York city
ever saw had the peculiar habit of re-
garding as his inferior any man who
was engaged in a business less gen.
teel. as he held, than his own. In his
employ was young vermonter, who
felt highly elated when one day man
from his native town who was visiting
the city called on him. The man was
somewhat crude in his manners, but
he had piled up a fortune in the tin
ware business and in buying up at a
discount in times of panic commercial
paper which he believed was good.
The youth introduced the Vermonter
to his employer.
what business are you imp asked
the dry goods prince as the two shook
hands

without a word the dry goods mer-
chant turned on his heel and bolted
into his private Office. He didn't rec
ognize tinware merchants as desirable
acquaintances.
Hold on a minute. Mr.. - shouted
the Vermonter after the retreating fig
ure. "Are these here things goin' to
be paid when they fall due?'
From his wallet the Vermonter drew
several slips of paper, which he held
up to the dry goods merchants face
The merchant glanced at them and eff
fusively babe the Vermonter welcome
to his private Office The papers We're
notes to the extent of $4,000 uttered
by the dry goods merchant and which,
unknown to him. the Vermonter had

OLD TIME CELEBRATIONS.

GUILTY. of the Night.

guilty of the Night.
The files of old newspapers are a
priceless record of the history and
manners of their times. In the papers
of 1896 the accounts of public rejoicings
show that these were few in number
and that the method of keeping them
differed widely from our ideas of fes-
tivities. Washingtons birthday was
perhaps the greatest holiday.
industrious citizens we are told,
appropriated the hour of noon for the
congratulations of the day. Each fam
lily enriched the domestic meal with
bountiful provisions, and gay spirits
and temperate and undissembled joy
pervaded all classes
There were speeches and professions
and illuminations for the less indus
trious who were willing to give some
thing more than the hour of noon to
the celebration. but the most menora-
BILE observance of the day was that of
the Harvard students
Saying to each other that it would
be disgraceful to pretend to honor
Washington with riot and disorder
they retired to their chambers before o
o'clock. and by the time the bells
ceased ringing there was not a light to
be seen In any of the buildings
This is equaled by the summing up
OF the celebrations of Fourth of July
for the same year, a day observed with
great rejoieiugs. No accidents are re

An Accident That Esfsl the Protector
In Hyde Park.
''As Cromwell rose ia power and rank

when the Spanish ambassador took his
leave of the lord protector, Cromwell
sent him his own coach of six white
horses to convey him to and from
Whitehall Certain it is" adds the
narrator that none OF the English
kings had ever any such"
The protector was not much of a
whip, however. In 1854 the Count of
OIdenburg sent Cromwell a present of
six horses, and the protectors anxiety
to make trial of their quality led to his
well known adventure in Hyde park.
On Friday, Sept. %. he went with Sec

men to take air liz the park, ordered

for some time, but at last. provoking
those horses too much with the whip,
they grew unruly, whereby his high

hold in the tackling, he was carried
away a good while in that posture but
at last he got his foot clear and so
came to escape. He was presently
brought home and let blood and after
some rest taken is now well again. The

leaping out of the coach. hath been

The royalist Scroggs. afterward chief

that the next fall would be from a cart

at n positive conclusion. His constant
aim was to possess as many good
horses as he could afford Whether he

DON'T TAKE ANY CHANCES.

Now that the water is back in
the pipes again thanks to the
workmen and officials who had
charge of the repairs, there is no
need to go to sleep in the thought
that all is secure, for as long as
the pipes remain beneath the
Shenandoah river as at present
there is always danger of break
and heavy expense in repairing it,
to say nothing of the Inconvenience
to the water users.
Now is the time to take steps to
prevent the possibility of another
break, and to make such additions
to the system as will make repair
work easy in case of break at the
river.
We have suggested viaduct and
screw-Joint pipe, and have asked
Engineer Adelsberger to give us
an estimate of the cost of such
work. AS soon as he can draw a
rough plan, he will make up an
estimate, which will be at once
printed in the COURIER.
We have heard no better plan
suggested than the one we have
named.
Perhaps there is better plan.
If so, give it to US, and we'n
print it.

some pair of matched blacks which
have excited so much admiration,
and Sheriff w. w. SmalIwood

these horses are first-class and we

that MIR. Pies paid about $500 for
the blacks and that Mr.. Smallwood
paid almost as much for the roans.

Death Under the Wheels.

conductor on the southbound local
freight which reached Boyce last
Wednesday afternoon about 4
O'Clock, slipped on the rail while
making coupling and fell under

out his arm in an effort to recover
his footing, and the engineer, who
was watching for a signal to 90

arm was his signal, and started his
engine, with the result that Conner
was run over and both legs horribly
crushed, as wellas internal injuries.
