BACK TO WAR OF 1872.

In the Supreme Court of Appeals
last week Bernard P. Green and John
A. Parker. through administrators, Sc
cured a writ of error in their case
against the Commonwealth, involving
fees amounting to $172, ,S5s.2s. The
case grew from an appeal from the Cir
cult Court of Richmond. pa
The case is especially interesting
owing to its ancient dating, as it goes
back to the War Of 1872, when Virginia
advanced almost 81. OO0, 600 to the Fed
eral Government. The plaintiffs claim
they We're appointed to collect the debt.
In opposition to the judgment of the
lower court the petitioners claim the
sum due the nation by the State ac-
crued after their agency was created
and was not their fault. The case will
be argued at the next term of the Su.
preme Court.

THE LIGHTNING BUG AHEAD.

Careful experiments made seem to
show that no light now used is compar-
able to that of the ordinary FREELY. The
carbon filament in the incandescent
lamp gives only 4S per cent of the en-
ergy used in producing the light. while
the humble firefiy gives no less than
96.5 per cent. So far no one seems to
have fully penetrated the mystery of
the FREELY light, or shown why it is
that so great light can be produced
with next to no perceptible heat. Here
the bug is away ahead of man.

"ThEY THAT GO DOWN

within recent years become established
In Gloucester, Mass. Flowers are

the following letter yesterday:
"Gentlemen:--An observer wishes
to give you little advice regarding
the decoration of your west window.
The beautiful old rose costume would
be more becoming 10 the brunette
figure than the blond"
A few days ago the window trim
mer at the Ludwig store placed in the
west window n beautiful figure wear
ing a Sinning smile, numerous blond
puffs and bralds and n handsome
gown OF wisteria shade. Some obser-
yer with an artistic eye, perhaps q
dashing brunette, decided that gown
was n peach but must be worn on a
lady of darker beauty. She made
just one mistake, however, and to-
day the following placard is pinned
to the front of the blond lady's gown:
For the benefit of the kind OBJ
server: This costume Is wistera, not
old rose"
Great appreciation is felt for the
suggestion of the anonymous one and
