Probably the busiest man on
Me reunion grounds, last week,
was Will Gregory. He ran a
grocery store, kept a big stock
of hardware, handled gasoline,
and, in addition to all of this,
he rented all the gasoline stoves
and other kinds he had, perhaps
a couple Of hundred; lighted the
grounds, rented and sold cots.

service, and if he did not make
money it was surely his own

Sleeping Out of Doors

In that happy millennium, when
we have all learned how to live and
existence shall be absolutely sani-
tary, sterilized, and perhaps stereo-
typed, it is likely that we shall have
at last one Joy that we have hardly
learned how to avail ourselves of as
yet. That is the pleasure, the great
physical content, of an out-of- door
existence. How nerves will smooth
out and assume their proper and
normal functions, how the muscles
will regain snap and power, and
how the old house bound sluggish
ness will tall away before the reviv-
flying influence of wind and sun
and stars!
The very sensible fad for out door
sleeping rooms, which lis still for
tunately on the increase. has given
many Of us our first chance to know
just what it is to sleep directly un-
der the stars. And every one who
has once had this happy experience
will for ever after be just little
bit dissatisfied to be boxed up in an
ordinary sleeping room. no matter
how airy aud be-windowed it may

LEGAL BATTLE OVER
HIVE OF HONEY BEES
Whole Neighborhood Enbroiled in a
Swarm of Honey-Makers

-" "a Ia Va AAOhN -AAoAOAO
From Vesuvius comes the follow
ing bee story:
This section has been very much
absorbed for the past several weeks
in a controversy between Mr.. w.
Nadell Humphreys and Mr.. Bate
Campbell ever q hive OF bees.
1t seems that Mr.. Grant, a mail
carrier, was driving along the road
and noticed swarm OF wild bees
settling in the woods. A short dis
lance further he met a Miss Camp
bell and presented her with his in
terest in the bees. She immediate
ly procured a box, went to the
designated spot, and was engaged
lie hiving the bees, when Mr. Hum
phreys arrived on the scene and
claimed that since the ground was
leased by him the bees were also
his, and thereupon dumped them
into his box. The girls father, who
had come up resented this and at
ter some argument it was decided
to leave the bees on the ground un-
til the matter could ba settled.
During the night, however, Mr..
Humphreys granddaughter remem-
bered that possession Is nine-tenths
Of the Law and transferred the bees
to Humphreys house. More dis
cussion ensued, aud it was finally
agreed to arbitrate the matter.
Squire Graves took two disinter-
ested parties to the place and after
hearing the case they decided that
Campbell should have the bees and
that he should pay Humphreys
/ thirty-6ve cents for the cracker box
in which they were hived. Hum
phreys agreed 20 relinQuish the
bees but refused to sell, give, lend,
or exchange the cracker box. The
case was therefore removed to this
village and brought to trial before
Squire Graves and Squire Parker
Of Raphine. Mr.. Humphreys WAS
represented by one OF the leading
lawyers of Buena Vista and such
was the interest in the case that the
depot, where the trial was held, was
thronged throughout the daY. Many
witnesses we're examined and the
magistrates rendered their decision
in favor of Mr. Campbell and assess
ed all costs, amounting TO about
$1,000 exclusive of attorneys fees,
against Mr. Humphreys.

The Colored State Fair

The colored people of Virginia
have decided that a State fair an
nually held for the exhibition of the
products of the Negro race will re-
down to the best interest of both
races. For this purpose the Color
ed State Fair Association has been
incorporated and has secured the
use of the white fair groun Is in
Richmond to hold the first Negro
State fair.
The promoters believe that as the
races are separated in church, on
railroads, steamboats, and other
public places, that a separate State
fair would be most desirable and
that it would be stimulating to the
Negro race to produce evidence of
their thrift and progress.
1t will show the white people
what the Negroes are doing along
industrial lines. The white friends
in Richmond are not only giving en-
couragement, but they are con-
tributing very literally to the fnan-
cial support, aside from from grant
ing us the use OF their fair grounds.
