The following from the News
Leader, showing the financial condi-
ton and indicating the prosperity OF
the old state, will be read with inter-
est by all her people:
1.-The State of Virginia is to ask for
bids for S195, 900 of State bonds for the
sinking fund. Bids are to be opened
about August 6. The bonds are to be
cancelled and the interest paid into
the sinking fund and the fund there
from used to buy and retire more
bonds from time to time. This pur-
chase of bonds will bring the total
bought to date for the sinking fund
up to about 100000, all of which
have been cancelled and interest
saved to the State. The curtailment
of the debt is one that is especially
gratifying to the State, the finances
being so managed that the debt will
if the same ratio is maintained, be
paid long before the maturity of the
bonds"

Judge Alton B. Parker, late Demo
cratic nominee for President, was a
visitor at the Exposition on Tuesday
and expressed himself as pleased not
only with what he saw there but with
the people of the South generally. In
his opinion there is no better presi-
Dental timber in the country than
can be found in the South and the
time has arrived for US to assert our
independence in the matter and give
our support to Southern man for
the Presidency. He scouts at the
idea of lack of support of Northern
Democrats of Southern man should
be the standard bearer of the party at
the next Presidential election.

A movement is on foot in Richmond
to divert the $4,000 which, it is esti-
mated will be left in the hands of the
Confederate Reunion Committee after
all the debts have been paid, as the
nucleus of fund for the erection OF
a monument to the memory of the
late General Fitzhugh Lee. The idea
is popular among the old soldiers and
the people of the South generally will
agree with them that the money
could not be used for better pur-
pose. The people of the South honor
themselves in thus wishing to per-
petuate the memory of one of her
greatest soldiers and the sum neces'
sary for fitting testimonial to him
can doubtless be secured at no dis
tant day.

In Memorlam.

In loving remembrance of William
S. Bundick, who died July q, 1905,
aged 81 years. Gone but not forgot
ten.
A precious one from US has gone,
A voice we loved is stilled,
A place is vacant in our home,
Which never can be filled.
God in his wisdom has recalled,
The boon his love had given.
And though his body slumbers here
The soul is safe in Heaven.
By his wife,
Martha Bundick.

A Mss, q KICK and a Smudge Of Paint.

If any one should say that the great
est hits in some plays, not named, were
"a Kiss" "a Kick" and "a Smudge
of Paint" the average man would be
likely to turn up his nose with sniff of
derision. In Quincy Adams Sawyer, F"
which appears here Thursday, Sept. IL,
incident rather than plot is the chief
factor for success. The Kick, the Kiss
and the Smudge of Paint are the most
conspicuous, perhaps, of the many in
cidents. And they are Incidents, for
they come so naturally that it seems AL
most impossible that they could be
omitted. The play is clean, wholesome
and amusing, and was decided by the
New York public as the best New Eng
land play ever presented in this home
of rural productions. 1t has the sweet
est love story ever told, its comedy is
genuine, and the scenes in the little
village of Mason's Corner are true to
life.

Railroad Accident.

AS the north-bound train of the Min
eral Point & Northern was passing over
the second bridge above kodatz station
Wednesday morning it struck Mr.. David
Jenkins, an aged farmer of that vicin-
ity. Mr.. jenkins was stationed at one
end of the bridge for the purpose of
fishing and beyond the danger line as
he supposed, but results proved other
wise. He was struck in such manner
as to receive an ugly cash in the fore
head, while from there to one side the
flesh was more or less torn. The contact
knocked him down the embankment,
which fortunately was not deep. 1t is
regarded as a narrow escape from in
slant death. Attending physicians could
find no break or fracture of bones, and
Mr.. Jenkins is doing well all conditions
considered.

The Darlington Fair.

Although inclement weather inter-
fered to some extent with the Darling
ton fair held last week, it was sue
cess in point of attendance neverthe-
less. The exhibits in the various depart
ments were of merit, but not as numer-
Gus as at some of the previous fairs of
the society.
The races and base ball games were
permitted to drag because of the dilly-
dallying of horsemen and players, which
tried the patience of the people. This
figures as surprise, as the managers
of that society are credited with being
prompt, Johnny on the spot fellows.
Such Incidents. however, are likely to
prove good guides for the future
