for the show of pluck he displayed
yesterday on his Norfolk and Wes-

for his narrow escape from death.
After leaving South Boston with his
train the engineer went to his ten

count for he fell off while his train
was going at top speed. Two miles
down the road Firemen Carter dis

stopped the engine, notified the rest
of the crew and backed the train. Mr..
Burnett was found walking to meet
the train. Burnett went back to the
throttle and brought the train to the
city nearly on time.

viRG1NIANs IN CONVENTION.
Wide Reputation for Congressman
Flood Who Defied William
]. Bryan.

Baltimore, June 29th.-The face-to-
face defiance of Bryan by Mr.. Flood
has made wide reputation for the
Virginia congressman.
This was reflected yesterday when
Flood took the stand early this morn
ing to second the nomination of his
friend, Oscar w. Underwood. The
delegates recognized him as the de-
fender of the State few hours before
and welcomed him.
The Baltimore convention may yet
be remembered largely as the place
where Hal Flood, of Virginia, gave
William J. Bryan some valuable IN
formation on the Democratic doctrine
of States rights.
No Virginia delegates took part IN
the demonstration which followed
New York's transfer of support to
Clark, but when the Wilson applause
began a few minutes later it was
different. The banner bearing that no
longer strange device, ''Staunton, Va,
Woodrow Wilson's birthplace was
raised over the heads Of the Virgin
ians.
Throughout the repeated balloting
of the day and night, after the first
vote in the early morning hours, the
Virginia delegation voted steadily as
follows: Wilson, 91A; Clark, "; I'm
derwood, ID. Senator George 3. Keez-
ell, who cast his vote with the major
ity for Underwood on the initial bal
lot, thereafter gave Clark his half
vote. Senator Keezell has long been
satisfied that Clark was the best man
In detail the Virginians voted as
follows:
For Underwood Thomas S. Martin
Claude A. Swanson, H. D. Flood, Al
fred B. Williams, James Y. Trehy,
Robert B. Tunstall, Charles A. Cooke
Dr.. Joseph M. Burke, Rorer A. James
J. L. Clarke, Granville Craddock, f,
w. Weaver, John S. White, R. S. Coch-
ran, George H. Rucker, John w. Price
P. F. St. Clair, C. W. Bondurant, NJ
C. Clarke E. B. Barley, Thomas F.
Ryan-representing fourteen votes.
For Clark George B. Keezell, one,
half vote.
For Wilson-William Hodges Mann
Richard Evelyn Byrd, R. Tate Irvine
Harry St. George Tucker, DR.. j. w
Bowdoin, Allen D. Jones, Thomas Fl
Birdsong (alternate), Frank E. Story
Park P. Deans, w. H. Venable (al-
ternate), H.. M. Smith, Jr., E. C.
Palmer, John M. Hart, John M. 'Steck
Peyton Cochran, Aubrey A. Strobe
representing nine and one-half votes
All the Virginia delegates sat stead
lily in their seats. There was no unit
rule, and no delegate could leave the
hall except for a very few minutes
If not in his seat when the poll was
taken he would not be counted.

THE cOUNTYS FINANCES

If the county Is IN such splendid
financial condition" as some of the local
illusions assert, why did the County
Commissioners on Tuesday last 'hold
all road bills over until another meet
ing, owing to lack of funds" and why
are the school teachers salaries still
deferred? Last year all this was laid
on the Williams Injunction, forbidding
the county to borrow money That cry
will not go this year. however, for 1t has
been only a few weeks since the County
borrowed $4,000 ITO MEET THE Elk
PENSES OF THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS
AND ROADS FOR THE BALANCE OF
THE FISCAL YEAR" But this $4,000,
borrowed, Is evidently not meeting those
expenses; and yet partisan editorials
insist on stating that the county is in
splendid financial shape" IF 1T is, a
great many people, who cannot collect
their bills against the county, would like
to know WHY THEY CANNOT GET
THEIR MONEY.
Again, We say, this misleading method
OF discussing county affairs ought to
stop. The situation should be stated AS
1T REALLY is, and good citizens, inter-
ested in the county's welfare and good
name, should pull together for the best
possible adjustment of matters, without
reference to partisan feelings.

Deafness is caused by an inflamed con-

imperfect hearing, and when it is en-

and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this lube restored to its

we wanted them to discover that they
were up a tree when 1t came to any
actual practical resu'.s from all their
well-meant and emirently proper agita
ton We had been there ourselves, and

rrSDT ST ntiarsd settlement. let somebody
question tt and We will prove it up to
the hit
