SIGNS ~ TILE HEAVENS.

Several days ago what Is called q
celestial phenomenon was observed
by persons living within easy walking
distance of Luray. One Of the trust
worthy citizens of the community, re-
siding near the foot Of Massanuttan
Mountain, point that must not be
forgotten, gentlemen, in making up
your verdict, was aroused about 2
clock one morning recently by un-
usual noises around his premises" He
went out of the house to find what it
was all about, and when he got there
lie observed "the moon lying far to
about that as so many queer things
have happened since the Haley Comet
passed by; but when he turned
around and discovered another and
equally brilliant luminary just above
the eastern horizon he was naturally
startled beyond measure" as almost
anybody would have been. Two moons
in one night, one in the South and
the other in the East, was enough to
shake almost any sort of nerves.
There must be something the mat
ter with that Massanuttan Mountain
country. We are not saying, or even
suggesting what it might be- but
something or somebody or other must
have been making those noises and
working the moon overtime, and if
Royal Cabell or any of his deputies
would only drop around incidentally
when the moon is shining in the
South and coming up in the East at
one and the same time, there is no
telling what might happen; at least so
strange an astronomical performance
would seem to justifys the closest
study.

than Colquitt paid out during his cam

HITCHCOCK MAKING MONEY.

Postmast ter General Hitchcock was a
true prophet and since his return to
his official duties, he has announced
the fulilment of his prediction that
there would be reduction Of 100000
600 In the postal deficit this year. We
do not know where it was, and the
correspondents at Washington are not
able to tell how 1t was done; but
1T has been done. AS matter Of
fact, the report Of the auditor OF
the Department shows that there has
been a saving this year of $11,573, 900.
The total deficiency for the fiscal year
ending the both of June last was $5,-
100000, as against $1T,4S0,000 at the
close OF the preceding fiscal year, the
last year of Mr.. Roosevelts adlninis-
tration. Whether that had anything
to do with 1t or not, we neither af-
firm nor deny but there Is a conca-
tenation of circumstances that we
would not for anything in the world
attempt to elucidate. At the present
rate of saving, General Hitchcock
ought to be able to declare dividend
of something like $4,000 next year
AT any rate, he deserves credit for
