Tho Senator's Favorite Dish.

A year or two ago Senator Tillman gave
to a chef in the Senate restaurant a re-
cipe for an excellent corned beef hash.
the fame of which speedily penetrated the
uttermost recesses of the capitol
When the head waiter wants this hash
prepared with unusual care he orders it
in this wise:
zone corned beef hash for Senator Till
man.
One day recently during the luncheon
hour the restaurant was doing land
office business and everybody seemed 10
want corned beef hash. Ten times. ut
least did waiter approach the serving
table with the order for Senator Till
mans corned beef.
Finally the thing got on the chefs
nerves. Look heah," he shouted to one
waiter bringing the same old order, ''dat's
de twelfSh order for senator Tillman. He
better watch out or he'll founder hisself.,

Bulgaria is sufficiently in the public
eye just now to compensate her for a
total eclipse that lasted for three or
four centuries. Between the oblitera-'

quering Turk and her very modern
resurrection, she disappeared more
completely than Poland ever has. Tho
very name of Bulgaria was remembered
only by the learned. Sir Charles Eliot
points out that In journeying from Bull

Many Attractions Reported from
COllierstown

Garefs Co,1ssbondsnes
CoLLIERsTowN, Aug, 30.--During
the latter part OF last week our dis
trict as a whole was the scene OF
enjoyment. Hundreds of pleasant
visitors from Rockbridge and adj
Joining counties as we'll as many
from distance, were welcomed in
our midst. The principal attrac-
tons in part was the County Must
cal Convention which met at Oxford
church on Thursday and Friday and
THE annual meeting OF the Advent
Conference which Is in session at
Mountain View church. Friday
was the most eventful day as Kel'
Ter Bros. exhibited their dog and
pony show at Collierstown, which
attracted both old and young to a
very great extent. Mr.. Editor, it
is safe to say that rs per cent OF
our people we're arrayed in their
best colors on that day.
Mr.. G. W. GaIret and three OF
his sons OF Muskogee, Oklahoma,
are stopping off here for several
days with view OF purchasing
some desirable real estate, that he
may be able to get his children into
! the Virginia schools. Mr.. Carrot
, is a high toned gentleman but is
slightly connected with the red
man, and belongs to the Creek
Tribe. His boys are center OF
attraction with our young people.
They dress well and possess good
manners. They will continue their
trip eastward as far as New Jersey
before they return to Oklahoma.
Owing to the increase OF the trade
at the -four mill of Mr.. H. W. Wade
at Marmion, the entire machinery
is being removed, preparatory to
installing heavier machinery with
a much increased capacity.
Mr.. Ollie Knick, who was report
ed sick last week, was taken to Gill
ton Forge and was operated on for
appendicitis. DR.. Coleman accom-
panied him there, and reports the
operation success and the patient
is doing well.
Mr.. S. W. Foster has bought from
Mr., Elmo Robson his stock of goods
at the old E. W. Tribbett stand and
will run the business on a larger
scale.
Among the many visitors here
are Mr.. Charles McCown and fam
ily and Mr.. VIM. Burnett and three
children OF Roanoke. X RAYS.
