LOCAL PARAGRAPHS

1t rained so heavily Tuesday night
that the First Regiment Band could
not give its free concert at the
court house.
There are many guesses coming us
to who will succeed John Chiffon as
Master Commissioner. The fall
term of Judge Hanbery's court be-
gins Monday.
John Winfree had a gold watch
stolen this week. The watch was
taken from his coat pocket while no
one was in the Office. The police
are ION the watch" for it.
Don't forget. even if September
does bring frost sometimes, that the
seasons this year have all been out of
place, and that we used to" have
mighty hot weather in October.
An order has been issued by Man
ager Ewing that IN many important
counties in the black patch the
time has been extended for closing
the books Of the Planters Assocla-
ton.
The tobacco crop in this county
has been about all cut and housed.
and farmers are getting ready to be-
gin following for next years wheat
crop, some Of them having already
begun.
There's a whole lot of work going
on at Hotel Latham now. The con-
tractors for putting in a new heating
plant are pushing the work rapidly
in order to get through before cool
weather arrives.
Before the drouth was broken we
came nearer having q butter famine
than for many years. The pastures
were about dried out and flies wor-
ried cows 30 greatly that they fell off
terribly In milk.
There is great deal of terrazzo
work being done at Mclean College.

officers would be doomed to failure
at the start. 1t requires soldiers
to make an army, and it requires
interested helpful members to make
successful tobacco association.
Notwithstanding the management
must be strong, thoughtful and
conservative. The question is now
squarely up to growers for their
own solution. If they desire a
strong Association they must make
it, as it cannot otherwise be made.
Will they do it before it is etern--
ally too late? The management has
done its duty faithfully and well.
Very little time remains in any,
event. Yours truly,

Workmen Discover Tomb Of Andrea
Morosini In Venetian Church
Mummy Also Found.

VeniceIt always pays to scrape
the walls of the churches and palaces
of Italy, for almost invariably under
the embarrassing outer wash are
found frescoes of more or less value.
This is just what happened here in
the Church OF SITS Join and Paul,
where some frescoed figures of the
evangelists have come to light near
the high altar
What is, perhaps. more interesting
to the ordinary traveller is the dis
covery in the same church at the
other side of the high altar of Gothic
sarcophagus of the fourteenth cen
fury In which mummified body was
lying on the back with the head turn
ed to the right. One of the feet was
detached from the body. From the
description 1t was learned that these
were the remains of Andrea Morosini,
famous warrior and member of
the family which gave four doges to
Venice. The remains have been left
