JAMESTOWN EXPOSITION NOTES.

Judge Alton B. Parker spoke Tues
day at Kentucky Day." Yesterday
Thursday was Richmond day, and the
grounds swarmed with Virginians.
Princess Trixie, the educated horse.
has so steadily worked herself into
public favor at the jamestown EXPOSE
ton that she has now become the "star"
attraction, and she has excited SO much
comment, controversy, and discussion,
which needs all the management's
patience to cope with. Her perform
ances seem to SAVIOR almost of the
supernatural. Mr.. Barnes, her owner
recently said: my experience with the
horse is, that when the animal finds
that ne is understood. it is a pleasure
for him to do what he can for his
master" 1t is very evident that in
this case the horse is thoroughly under
stood, and reciprocates accordingly.
TriNie goes through her work as if it
were a pleasure, whether it be on the
stage or off it, and the sympathy
between master and horse is so plain
that it can be noticed at once. She
tells how many women are occupying a
certain row of seats, describes the
various colors of their hats, waists, or
other portions of their apparel, will
tell the time correctly to the minute
from any watch, held by any member
of the audience, manipulates the cash
register. and plays short selections upon
musical instruments, without any APP
parent signal or cue from her master.
Her performance throughout is of a
most interesting, amusing and instruc-
tive nature, and is well worthy the
liberal patronage it enjoys.

BAPTIST EDUCATIONAL MOVEMENT.

An inter esting and very important
meeting of representative of the Bap-
tist denomination CT Virginia was com
menced at the Woman's College, Rich
mond, Tuesday. At the last session of
the General Association of the Virginia
Baptists, held in that city last fall.
resolutions recommending a general
educational movement looking to the
enlargement of Richmond College and
the establishment Of a woman's college
IN connection Herewith were adopted
with enthusiasm. The suggestion was
that campaign be inaugurated among
the Baptists, under the auspices of the
education commission, body of agents
created by the General Association. to
raise the sum of $500, 900 for the larger
endowment of Richmond College. and
for the establishment at some central
point, presumably Richmond, of a CEN
trail woman's college under Baptist con-
troll. The meeting was gathering of
representatives of the denomination to
map out plans for the educational cam
paign suggested by the action of the
General Association, and response to
the call of the education commission.
Among those in attendance from this
section are; Rev. F. w. Claybrook,
Kilmarnock; Rev. Geo Y. Beadley,
White Stone; Rev. H. S. Driscoll,
Northumberland county, and Rev. H.
j. Goodwin, Middlesex county.

RAPPAHANN0CK ASSOCIATION.

Wednesday, Thursday and Friday
after the 4th Sunday of July, are the
dates for the meeting of the Rappahan-
mock Association, and this year the
place will be Jerusalem Baptist church.
Emmerton, Richmond county, six miles
from Sharp's wharf.
Our church is exceedingly anxious
land all the more so, because we have
not entertained the Association since
1866 to welcome and entertain Just as
many delegates from the churches and
societies, representatives of our denomi-
national work and visitors as can pos
sibly come. The one and only difficulty
being conveyances for those who come
by steamer to Sharps wharf. To solve
this problem in way that all may feel
at liberty to come, we will ask that
those who live near the river and come
by steamer, bring their conveyances if
convenient; and that those who are to
come without conveyance write us sew
eral days before hand, so that we NAV
arrange to have them met promptly.
With a new, up-to-date church build
ing, an active, wholesome member
ship, and progressive and hospitable
community, we can give you a hearty
welcome and delightful visit.

The PRESIDENT, in his most
recent acrobatic performance, has as.
founded some friends and set his
enemies to roofing all the louder. He
is preparing to recommend to Con-
gress form of modified governmental
ownership Of railroads. The scheme
is that adopted by the German gov
eminent, as a step to the complete
ownership of all railway lines. The
plan is to have the government pur.
chase stock In q number of the chief
railway systems of the country, SO as
to give it representation on the
boards of directors. These govern
ment directors would be in position
to know the most closely guarded
secrets of the management of the
respective roads, and there would be
no further need of the inquisitorial
methods which have come into use
since the active regulation of roads
by the Federal power was under
taken. In other words, he would
put into effect at once what Mr..
Bryan was roundly denounced for
saying should come to pass at an
opportune time. Truly the silver
tongued orator of the plains has
cause of Crouch against Teddy, who.
one by one, is stealing thunder from
Bryan and the Democratic party.

WHAT'S THE MATTER WITH
T0MIESR


-Four years ago the strongest objec-
ton to the nomination of c. S. Towles
was that he was without experience in
the duties of Attorney for the Com
monwealth. 1t was pointed out that
the interests of the county and State
might suffer by placing an inexper-
fenced man in office. No doubt the
gentlemen who kicked so strenuously
against the nomination were sincere i'm
their kicking, but now they have
snapped ends" and are trying to
kick the experienced man out, and put
an inexperienced man in his place.
These gentlemen may have the interests
of the county at heart, or they may
only be serving some selfish desire, as
indicated by the writer a number of
weeks ago.
The majority of the people are gen
orally more interested in the welfare of
the county than they are in subscribing
the selfish purposes of any man, or set
of men. That the business of the Office
of Commemorative Attorney has been
faithfully and conscientiously admin
istered is evident to any thinking OBJ
server. Considering the vast water
front of the county and the hundreds of
non-residents that are employed in the
various industries during the year, it is
somewhat remarkable that there is so
little disorder. The criminal expenses
are very small, only one other county
in the Northern Neck showing less, and
very few in the balance of the State.
A potent factor in this problem of keep
ing down expenses may be found in the
fact that Mr.. Towles has made it a
custom to appear at all trials before a
justice of the peace, when requested
to do so by the presiding justice, in
order to look after the interests of the
county and State. In many of these
cases there would probably be appeals
taken were it not for the presence of
the prosecuting attorney. AS it is. the
decision of the justice is usually final.
1t must be remembered that he is not
compelled to attend these trials, and
also that he receives no pay. Were
he inclined to do so, he could easily
arrange matters so that a great many
appeals would be taken, and thus make
fees for himself and lots of business
for the other lawyers. And then the
criminal expenses would climb UP hand
over fist. AS l view the matter the
taxpayers would rather see a small
criminal expense than to make busy
and profitable times for the lawyers.
If Mr.. Towles had been inefficient, if
he had left and neglected his duties to
look after other things, l should be
one of the first to oppose his renomina-
tion. But looking from the standpoint
of the private citizen, without any sell
fish interests or desires to further, /
fail to see any good reason for choosing
another man. The sooner the people
get to applying sound business principles
to politics the better it will be for the
people, but it will be knockout for
the professional politician.
Now, what is the matter with Towles
as Commonwealth Attorney?
He's all right. GEO. II. SMITH.

SOME NOTES
or Interest TO Truckers, Farmers
and Stock Raisers.

The largest order for Albemarle pip-
pins ever placed in Richmond was re-
ceived recently. 1t calls for twenty
thousand barrels of AL pippins, which
at SO. 90, fob. in London, would repre-
sent $l30,000. A five-thousand- barrel
order of pippins also came from a firm
in Copenhagen.
The tomato crop in the Northern
Neck was never so large and in most
instances look fine. A large pack is
looked for. 1t is a matter of surprise,
however, that our people do not put
in part of their crops for early market.
The tomato is one vegetable we
can beat the Norfolk section on, and
there is more assurance and more
money in early tomatoes than in English
peas. After the first pickings, the
remainder could go to the canneries.
The Irish potato crop of Accomac is
being shipped, and the yield is heavy.
Many farmers report from sixty to
sixty-five barrels to the barrel planted.
Three Baltimore steamers Wednesday
carried 5000 barrels and left 5000 on
the wharves. The shipment by rail ag-
gregated "a, 900 barrels. The price is
from $l.75 to 81 per barrel on car or
steamer.
The hum of the threshing machine is
being heard all around. The yield of
wheat is pleasing to the farmers, and
the quality and condition much better
than for the past two years. The
question which is most interesting now
is, will it bring a dollar per busheI

men representing the present steam.

Potomac and bay shore lines. They
were Mr.. L. Murdoch, traffic mana
ger, his assistant, Mr.. j. H. @. Will
liams, and Mr.. w. ID. Scott, agent at

to talk with our citizens "heart to
heart" with view to stimulating
interest in immigration to this Sec
ton. A dual purpose is to be
schieved-more traffic for the exis
tent lines and procuring buyers of
land and laborers for this section
With this object in view the Penn

Light street, with Mr.. j. H. q. Will
lismsatthe head, Inviting information
from ell who have properties TO sell OF
who are at all interested in locating
colonies or securing farm labor. TIC
make the movement success, our
people must cooperate, aud in a spirit
of sincerity and squareness. The
boat company will make no charge
for aid in selling property or in pro-
curing immigrants; this must be met
by honest figures for lands and no
quibbling. If any expects to extol
for his property be will be in way
black listed, for the company will
have information on all tenders and
will have no dealings with those moi
coming on bedrock terms. We now
have an opportunity to get help from
q corporation that is able aud willing
to help, and we trust our people will
rise to the occasion. The CITIZEN
expects to derive no pecuniary
benefit from its aid in this direction,
but with our whole people will profit
by injected prosperity. We invite
correspondence on the line of immi.

progress as may be reported.
