Washington Sept. 11.-Holding
that C. Jones Rixey, Jr., son of the
banker indicted in connection with
the failure of the Virginia Safe De-

when he instituted lunacy proceed
ings against his father, before an
Orange county justice of the peace
Saturday, Judge Louis G. Barley, of

clerk to issue rule against young
RiXey to show cause why he should
not be fined.
The rule is returnable in ten days,
and was made on motion of Samuel

wealth. Mr.. Brent stated that mas
much as Rixey was under Indictment
and at liberty, on $4,000 bond, the
Alexandria county court alone had
the power to commit him, in case he
should be found insane, and in that
event should be confined at the State
asylum at Marion, Va. 1t is prob
able Rixey will be brought to Alex

PLAN NEW SEWERAGE
SYSTEM FOR CITY
Council Now Has Important Inn
provenent Under Consideration

pTOVeO1Cll OAIOCA SOAASA~SA ">A
From the many expressions OF ap-
nroval heard on all sides it seems
that the movement inaugurated at
the last meeting of the council for a
new sewerage system for Staunton
is to be carried through to a sue
cessful elimination. That the pre-
sent facilities are Inadequate and
that the time is not far distant when
something will have to be done is
the general opinion of many citi-
zens, and the desire seems to be
that the remedying of conditions
should not be delayed any longer.
At the meeting of the common
council held last week l.. w. H.
Peyton introduced the following re-
solution.
"Resolved: That special COM
mittee consisting of four members,
two from the board of aldermen and
two from the common council, shall
be appointed by the chairman of the
respective bodies, whose duty it shall
be to design and report compre-
hensive and adequate sewerage sys-
tenn for the City of Staunton, and
that said special committee is au-
thorized to employ the service of a
competent engineer.
The resolution was unanimously
adopted, and the chair appointed
Messrs. Peyton and J. F. Bowman as
the members of the committee from
the lower branch.
The idea is to install a sewerage
system that will touch every nook
and corner of Staunton, including
the whole of the annexed territory as
we'll as many sections of the city
which are at this time without prop
er facilities. Such a system would
be of the most modern type, and it's
installation would be- entrusted only
to competent workmen who would
have the guidance of some recogniz-
ed sanitary engineer.
Included in the improvements
would be the converting of Lewis
Creek into a channel of sufficient
depth and flow to carry off the sew
age. 1t is believed that this would
not be a difficult task under compe-
tent direction, and that the cost of
the whole would not be excessive in
view of the benefits to be derived.
While the scheme in as yet I'M
confirmed by the board of aldermen
the general opinion is that it will go
through without hitch. 1t is the be-
lief of members of the council that
the project can be financed without
extra strain on the city's revenues,
and with this being the case there
seems no good reason why this great
improvement cannot be made.
The aldermen will act on the prop
osition at their regular monthly
meeting which is scheduled for
Thursday night.

CORN ROAST FEATURE OF
MOONLIGHT Entertainment
Mrs Thomas Colston Kinney Hos
tess at Most Delightful Affair

A very pretty and unique entertain
ment was given on Friday afternoon
by Mrs. Thomas Colston Kinney, at
her home "Topside" near Staunton
Francis, of Peoria, ILL.,, and his wife,
who are on visit to her. The home
which is of the bungalow style, is
the admiration of all who have seen
it. 1t is handsomely and artistically
furnished with draperies, and furni-
ture, imported by her from Manila,
very rich and beautiful. Situated as
the bungalow is upon commanding
eminence, overlooking the surround
ing country, the view stretching to
he Blue Ridge on the east, and to the
Alleghanies on the west, with large
grove in the rear, it is ideal for such
an entertainment.
The Invitations were to "a corn
roast" which, the guests learned,
derived its title from the fact that
heap of embers was prepared, and
each member of the company was
given a long pole, on the end of
which was placed an ear of corn in
the shuck. This corn ear was held
over the embers until it was roasted:
after this the shuck was stripped off,
when salt and melted butter were ap-
piled, and the corn thus prepared
was eaten from the cob. 1t is only
when one has eaten corn thus pre-
pared, that it's elegance is fully real
lied and appreciated, it is simply de-
licious.
In the grove was a table on which
were laid covers for the guests, from
which an elegant dinner was served.
The "corn roast" then took place,
after which came ices, coffee, and
Manila cigars. A colored orchestra
from Staunton furnished music. The
evening was ideal; the grove was
lighted with Chinese lanterns. and a
bright full moon lent it's silvery rays.
The guests were unanimous in de-
claring that they had never spent a
more delightful evening, nor met a
more charming. hostess.
Among those present were: Mr..
and Mrs. R. B. Francis, of Peoria.
Ill; Hon. and Mrs. Jacob Yost. and
Miss Mary Yost, Mr.. and Mrs. Fitz-
hugh Elder, Misses Annie and Nav
Elder, Mrs. Hattie B. Wilson. Mrs
