no visible signs of success. A relative
who was present gave him up for dead
and telephoned for a local undertaken.
Some one suggested that, owing to the
strange nature Of his demise, a coroner
should be summoned.
A discussion at once broke out as to
whether Coroner Bisbing was yet in Of

HOld-lIp and Surprise.

Wild excitement reigned Friday eve
ming on the State road west of town
when an automobile occupied by Dr.
and Mrs. II. l.. Dumbe was held up
by band Of masked and armed high
waymen. The bandits, with several
women in their number, forced the
physician and his wife to leave their
car and go through the darkness to a
bonfire among the trees. The couple
from the auto were then compelled TO
sit about the fire with the outlaws and
eat roasted Wicnerwursts on crackers
and drink coffee into which the sugar
and cream we're stirred with sticks.
When the Wieners were exhausted the
captiyes were forced to eat candy and
one Of the highWaymen then APP
preached Mrs. Dumble brandishing a
long butcher knife in a most threaten
ing manner. Thrusting the knife at
her, he gave her huge nut chocolate
cake at the same time, which he com
PEELED her to slice with the knife
When all the "eats" had been CON
sumed the captives were returned to
their auto and Will Cotton, leader of
the outlaw crowd, erstwhiIe steward
at the Cottage Hospital, reminded
Mrs. Dumble that it was her tn
birthday. 1t was learned that the
nurses at the hospital were among the
highway robbers and other members of
the party were the very neighbors of
the Dumbles, Mr.. and Mrs. Frank
Chandler. Mr.. Chandler claimed that
he was justified in taking part in
the escapade because it was his Goth
birthday.

very sweetly sang "When Song is
Sweet and then the strains of the
march from Lohengrin were heard as

ding party was ushered in by Miss
Eva Baker and Miss Ruth Gibbons and
passed through an acrh of Oregon
grape, down the aisle enclosed with
chains Of evrergeens, to the later,

THE FAIR

With the fair only about one
month off it is high time for ex-
hibitors to begin to make up their
minds as to what they will exhibit,
and to prepare their exhibits in order
TO make a creditable showing. There
arr a number of well equipped and
W IL managed stock farms in the
vicinity of Fredericksburg, and some
of the best bred dairy cattle in the
State are owned by the proprietors
of these farms. These cattle ought
to be exhibited at our fair, as they
are a credit to their owners and to
this section of Virginia. Such eX-
hibits as these not only advertise this
section, but are the best possible ad-
yer .isement for the owners who have
animals to sell. We hope this year
this important department will
eclipse anything of its kind we have
had in the past. The ladies' depart
ment, the agricultural department,
the poultry department and the ma
chinery department will undoubted-
" be I'D to their usual high standard.

MAYNARD TO CONTEST

Until the official count in the second
district it will not be positively known
who has won the Democratic congress-
ional nomination as the result OF Tues
days primary.
Candidate VIM. A. Young leads Repre-
sentative Maynard by AZ votes. but
MAYNARD refuses to concede defeat, even
on the face Of the official returns, and
has given notice of contest on the
grounds Of irregularities in Norfolk city,
where the official count was completed
Thursday with a majority Of 1859 for
Young.
The Young majority in the district
was reduced Thursday from 1863 when
il was found that in Norfolk county one
precinct had made returns unotficially
under two separate names.
The official canvass of Princess Anne,
Nansemond, Isle of Wight, and South
ampton counties are still to be had.
With Young's majority in the district
seemingly cut down to 90, and 1t being
evident that the returns Of the election
of Tuesday have been juggled, it is be-
lieved by both sides, the Norfolk Vir-
ginian-Pilot will advocate, in the in
terests of the Democracy of the Second
District. that the district executive
committee declare the primary election
null and void, and that a second pri-
mary be held.
The paper contends that no matter
to whom the election is finally con-
ceded, that the allegation Of irregulari-
ties, both in Norfolk and Portsmouth,
and the delay in returns, many of them
being changed from previous state
ments, indicating to some that they
have been juggled, will cause the dis
satisfaction to become general, and will
open the way for disaffections in the
regular fall election.

GEORGIA RETRIBUTION

Retribution in the shape of defeat
at the polls has overtaken Congress
men Livingston and Howard, OF
Georgia, two of the Oldest members
from that State in point Of service,
and few Democrats will regret their
fate. When it was question last
Dece nber of standing by Champ
Clark and an overwhelming majority
of their colleagues in the House,
who were attempting. with the aid
of Republican insurgents, to revise
the rules, these two Georgia Con-
gress.nen with one or two others
from that State declined to vote with
their party, but instead allied them
selves with few Tammany Demo-
Gratis led by Fitzgerald and made
sure the success of Cannon and his
cohorts in the first fight on the rules.
Chickens come home to roost, how
ever. and Messrs. Livingston and
Howard were defeated Tuesday on
this very issue, the Democratic
voters of Georgia not relishing the
spectacle Of their Congressman band
ed together with Cannon, Dalzell
and Payne on any question. These
two men, made careless and render
ed over-confdent by long years of
service in the House, Livingston
having served for twenty years and
Howard for twelve, evidently count
ed without their host when they cast
their votes for the Fitzgerald reso-
luton, but they now count as the
cost the loss of their seats, of which
their Democratic constituents have
most Justly deprived them. Outside
of any other question involved it is a
good lesson for those Democrats
who scornfully refuse to follow the
will of their party in the House as
represented by a majority of Demo-
cratic members, thereby making it
impossible for the Democrats to sue
coed in presenting a solid front to
the enemy

VIRGINIA GIRL MAY GU TO JAIL

Unless Miss Dorothea Philo Higgins,
q Virginia girl of "a years, who now re-
sides in Yonkers Park, New York,
pays fine of s., 200 imposed by Judge
Hough, of the Federal Circuit court, in
the next 10 days she will, it is said, be
sent to Jail for contempt.
Miss Higgins lives with her mother,
Mrs. Elizabeth w. Bradner. Her
father, Arthur Higgins, civil engi-
neer, died in Norfolk in 1891.
Miss Higgins contempt consisted in
disobeying an order of Judge Hough to
prevent the alleged fraudulent DISPOSE
ton of two fire insurance policies, when
F. w. Evers, furniture dealer, filed
a petition in bankruptcy against Mrs.
Bradner. There were unsecured claims
against Mrs. Bradner for 81, 406.
Charles H. Bradner, the husband,
had failed in the real estate business.
Mrs. Bradner stated that she had sunk
$40, 900 in her husbands business.
Miss Higgins asserted that she was
sick in bed at the time the injunction
is alleged to have been served on her.
