Stubs is as usual trying to do the
people of Tidewa,er Virginia a
service. He appeared before the
Corporation Commission Of Va,
On Tuesday last and fled a petit
'iOn asking that the Southern
Railway be required to Iun a fast
rain to West Point from Rich
nond, IN order that the mail COM

schedule has been change d SO
that this ain now leaves Rich
mond at 6 instead of 4 80 2. m.
The petition filed by MIR. Stubbs
asks that this be made a fast
rather than local train as is now
the case. A last train leaving
Richmond at the same hour
would arrive in West Point long
before the train making local
stops and would insure the regu-

pn9 ann ,uncement of Con-
e. eSsman William a. Jones as a
candidate for the United States
Senate to oppose Senator Martin
AHAs not unexpected. His pros
Pectiye candidacy had been much
discussed and his al nouncement
urged by MANY friends. Whether
or not at the instance Of his
friends. he has entered a loosing
race reulairs to be seen. Sen
! Ttor Martin has made n most ex-
eellent Schator and being a hard
fighter will doubtless make a great
fight for the retention OF his seat.
On the other hand Mr.. Jones has
been an able. efficient and hon
est public servant and is entitled
to hearing before the people OF
Virginia.
For the present at least the
Journal will not enter the lists
for either. We prefer to hear
what each man has to say in be-
half Of his candidacYs what princi-
pies each stands for andthen to ad
vocate the election of either man
(be it Mr.. Jones or Mr.. Martini
who il elected'would in our Judge
ment be best able to advance the
interests Of the peop'e of this
commonwealth.
So far as the fight between
Congressman Carter Glass and
Senator Swanson is concerned we
have little to say at present. Our
sympathies are entirely with Mr..
Swanson. We have always adj
mired him and believed him to be
an honest and able servant of the
people and shall continue to think
so until the contrary is proved.
Thus far there has been only
one surprising fact patent to us
in these political Developments.
That is. the failure OF MIR. zones
to resign his seat in the House
when entering the race for the
Senate. We have heard numbers
of his friends express the opinion
that resignation from Congress
would greatly strengthen his cam
didacy before the people. II hie

HUNTING THE CHEETAH.

From the Madras Mail,
The cheetah hunt which the viceroy
witnessed recently at Hyderabad re-
minds one that cheetah hunting was
an extremely popular sport with In
dian princes in former days, although
the initiation of European forms of
sport has done much in these times to
rob it of it's ancient vogue.
1t was practiced both by Hindu and
Mohammedan chieftains over the great

or SO ago must have been common

Another animal used in the same

more rarely than the cheetah. How

years later one Hindres established a
factory for stockings in the Bots de
Boulogne.
This was the first factory in France.
It was a success at the start, and when it
received protection from the then minis
tiers it was kind of gold mine. In 1865
the venture was turned into a company.

were made in England, but it was not
until nearly a century later that such
wear was introduced into France. The
