FREE OBITUARIES
COSTLY COfFINS.

We have several lengthy obituaries
on hand for publication that we will
publish as soon as we can. We are
frequently getting from two to six for
the same person. We hope that when
one dies that the family of the deceased
will select some one to write an obit-
uary, and not for all the friends to
write one, as we have not the time
and space for so many; and let them
be brief and to the point, and those
familiar hymns that have been worn
out might be omitted, too. They are
very beautiful but when they occur so
often they become monotonous. Floyd
Press.
Pathetic. The Virginia newspapers
are cruelty imposed upon by the pub
lic-in some communities more, in
others less. Why should a weekly
newspaper, with limited space, be
called upon to publish free of charge
several verbose obituaries of a single
subject?
When man or woman dies in given
community, the local paper makes such
publication as the prominence of the
subject requires. After that is done,
why should the editor throw open his
columns to every scribbler who may
be disposed to compose an obituary. ;
1t is an imposition. that our brethren
should not tolerate. Obituaries should
be paid for at so much per line. The
editor of the paper is no more under
obligation to give free obituary than
the undertaken to furnish a free
sket.-Times-Dispatch.

Big 18th AT fRVINGTON.
FINE TIME-NOT A HITCH OR JAR.
Boat Races, Speeches, Base Ball
and Plenty TO Eat for Big
Crowd.

The coolest and most pleasant weather
experienced in years on July Fourth
ahghted upon Tidewater last week.
The second of the festivities under
the auspices of the Irvington Village
Improvement Association eclipsed in
probably every respect the first one.
AT 10 O'Clock the Rappahannock river,
in the vicinity of Carriers Creek, was
studded with craft of all descriptions
awaiting the motor work-boat races.
The judges were E. w. Long, L. M.
Irving, j. Wood Tull and w. C. Coul-
bourn.
The entries in the % horse power and
under were the Blanche, Capt. w. L..
Messick, and the Mary, Lee Simmons.
At the boom of the Accomac's cannon
they started fair from Carriers Creek
over the course around Towles Point
buoy, around lay-boat off Gray's Point
and back to Carriers Creek. The prize
was the costly silver cup won by the
Greyhound in the former race.
A few minutes later FIVE boats under
l0-horse power were started on the
same course. The entries and order of
finish were: Lacy Kirkmyer, Yves.
Ashburn, w. Key Howard, Vernon
Messick and Joseph George. The prize
was handsome set of flags. This race
was more exciting than that of the big
boats, although the way the Mary cut
the water and the time she made was
astounding to the spectators. The fact
also that Lee Simmons had made and
built his own engine, out and out, added
to the interest the people had in his
success. He deservedly won the hand
some cup, making the nine miles in
considerable less than the hour. The
Blanche was handicapped by her big
houses and furnishings and went in to
make up the race. Owing to the cup
being left at the Bank where. it was on
exhibition during the day, it was not
publicly delivered at night as on former
occasion, but that and the colors will be
formally delivered later.
AS each of the victors came in there
were salutes of whistles, horns and APP
plause.
At noon big dinner was spread in
the Chesapeake Academy, partaken of
by hundreds. Theladies deserve much
credit for their management of this and
the entertainment at night.
At p. M, DR.. Geo. w. Mcdaniel.
of the First Baptist Church, Richmond.
spoke to packed house in the town
hall. He boxed the compass as a
theme and kept his audience engaged
for over an hour. He touched on
Fourth of July, Christianity. Temper
ance and experiences in Texas, and
impressed our people with his versatil-
ity and eloquence.
After the address the great throng
repaired to the Academy campus to
witness game Of ball between Ur-
banna and IrvingtOn. The visitors won
by 6 to q in game splendidly played
by both sides. E. c. Anderton gave
entire satisfaction as umpire.
Ice cream and other refreshments
were to be had, and at night the
glorious Fourth was wound up with an
entertainment by home talent in the
Opera House. Every number went off
well, and little tots and big dots were
alike roundly applauded.
Something like two hundred dollars
was realized for village Improvement,
which was good considering the low
rate charged for eating and the free
admission to the speaking.
