Rev. DR.. John o. Knott, native OF this
vicinity, now pastor ofthe Southern Meth
odist Church at Wanenton, Va, has un-
dertaken to build new church there.
DR.. Knott took charge of the Warenton
church month or two ago, and at once
began movement for new church edl-
flee. An eligible site was secured in the
western section of the town for $3,OOO.
The officials of the congregation told the
pastor that if subscriptions could be Sc
cured to the amount of$S 900. this, in con-
nection with proceeds from the sale OF the
old church, would be sufficient, as they
thought to justify their starting at once to
build. The device of clock-face, with
al red star to indicate the $1,000 mark.
was used last Sunday at the morning SER
vice, and by its novelty proved to be an
agency TO arouse considerable enthusiasm,
as the hand moved rapidly around to the
red mark, and subscriptions were report
ed. The mark was reached in fifteen
minutes. The congregation at once
crowded about the altar, fervent in their
congratulations to the pastor and each
other. The new church, to be built on
Winchester street, will be begun in the
near future, and will be very handsome
and thoroughly adapted to modern
church work.

IT has been suggested that Hon. John
J. Cornwell would make an ideal Candi-
date for the State Senate from this district.
The nomination OF Mr.. Cornwell would
do more to help the Democratic party in
the district than anything we can think
Of, and il would be great benefit to the
whole ticket. More important than any
other consideration, however, would be
the fact that in him the Democrats would
have floor leader in the Senate in whose
ability and integrity they could have alb
solute confidence. He would be tower
OF strength TO the party and wise coun-
sellor for the whole State in the impor-
tant matters that are TO come before the
next Legislature. We hope that Mr..
Cornwell may be prevailed upon to stand
for the nomination.
