Editor OF Tho Times-Dispatch:
Sir.-should stranger chance to
visit King William county at this
time, he would be deeply impressed
with the prosperity and general air
Of content which seem to pervade the
country. At fish-fries, picnics and all
day meetings one can see the tables
loaded with good things and handsome
home-bred teams pulling comfortable
vehicles, and last, but not least, bevy
of pretty girls. In imagination, let us
drive through the scented pine woods
inhaling health with every passing
zephyr; we look with longing eyes at
the young wild turkey flying at SC
close range, we can feel our hands
on the trigger, but we dare not, for
the game law Is In force. And here
Is mudhole with apparently no
bottom but we close our eyes and
have faith, for this is the Garden OF
Eden. We are approaching a farm
house, with its orchards. It's newly
painted barns filled with winter sup
plies. The we'll with the moss-covered
bucket dripping with GOODNESS. and
the geese, ducks and chickens cackle
welcome. while, beyond in the
shade OF the trees is the hospitable
country home. Verify. verify, this Is
land overlooking with milk and
| honey. p. II. EUBANK,

3. That the cook is queen.

In reply to question cor
respondent is informed that Ad-
miral Robley Dunglison Evans-"Fight-
ing Bob"--who is to take the United
States fleet to the Pacific, is a native
of Floyd county, Va, and was born on
August IS, 1916. He received his pri-
mary education in the public schools of
Washington and was appointed to the
navy from Utah. He graduated from
the Naval Academy in 1853, and parti-
cipated in both attacks on Fort Fisher,
being wounded four times in the land
engagement. During the war with
Spain, he commanded the Iowa, and
took an active part with SIMPSONS
fleet in destroying Cervera's fleet.
In 1891, he commanded the Yorktown
at Valparaiso, Chile. during the period
of "strained relations" between that
country and the United States. 1t was
his action in connection with various
incidents in that crisis that gained for
him his sobriquet.
