"a History of Rockingham Comfy"


BY John W. Maryland. Ph. -. Rue
bush-flkins Co. Dayton. Va.
The author OF this work IS ALREADY
idely known TO NirSinians as pro-
fessor of history III the state Normal
School. al HarrisouburS, Va. as a
member of the Virgin Historical So
city, American Historical Association,
and others. Among other things, he
has written political Opinions OF
Thomas Jefferson and the German
Element Of the shenandoah valley.
His history comes naturally under
two heads. First. the chronolOglc Il
table Of the county, dating back 10
Spotswood's visit to East Rockingham.
in September. Of 1716. and extending
to the year 1912. Under this division
comes the geography of Rockingham
County and its geological features, its
first white settlers. in l727-173S. its
separation from Augusta County. and
its development between 1777 and 1870:
its further growth from 1920 10 1860,
its experiences during the War Be
tween the states. and the DAYS of Re
construction, from 1865 to 1876; its
brighter days from 1876 TO 1872.
Part second IS topical. and treats OF
the county in respect 10 its roads and
railroads. it's population. religious lie,
schools. statesmen ana priests. farm
ers. natural curioslties. court days u
long ago. Spotswood's expedition, Dan
iel Boone on Linville Creek. death OF
Ashby in 1862, StOnewall Jackson At
Port Republic. and Sidney Lainer at
Rockingham springs. The appendix TO
the book is very valuable. and the nu-
merous illustrations most appropriate
and interesting.

Fire Due to Lightning.

An alarm from Box No. 81 at the
corner of Western avenue and State
street was sounded, at $40 2. NJ, On
Sunday, due to lightning entering the
house at No. 81 Powhattan street,
owned by William Williams and oc-
cupied by Mrs. G.. c. Payson. The
flash entered the upper portion of the
house by means of the telephone wire,
at the same time striking a guy wire
at the Grove street junction. John
Slayer, a bell boy at the Augusta
House, saw the flash and Immediately
pulled in the alarm. The fire depart
ment was promptly on the scene, us
ing chemicals in extinguishing the
blaze Had it not been for the fact
that Charles Payson was in bed in
the room where the lightning entered,
the damage to the house would have
probably been greater. The Payson
family thought that the house had
been struck when the flash came but
an investigation about the house
showed no signs to that effect. In the
meantime Payson came running down
from up stairs and informed them that
the house was on fire. The alarm had
already been sounded and when the
department arrived a small fire was
discovered in the partition, which was
quickly extinguished as heretofore
stated. The all out sounded about $50

musical tone. Architects believe they

London. Certainly it is true that each
Of these buildings returns to the car

Guadalupe Hidago stands on hill, the
hill on which she first appeared to
humble Mexican shepherd, six miles from
the heart of Mexico City, overlooking
the ordinarily small village of Guadalupe
Hidalgo where was signed, more than
half century ago, the treaty which end,
ed the war between Mexico and ,ae Unit
ed States.
The pilgrimage of these Indians-for
his is purely an Indian fiesta-culmtnates
which has been dedicated to the speciai'
worship of the Mexican virgin. Owing to
the long distance over which many or
the pilgrims are compelled to make their
way on foot, the start from remote Sec
tons of Mexico is made about the mid
die of August and as these most distant
pilgrims pass through the villages and
gather the faithful from the settlements
en- route.
Lest any of these should miss the cere-
mony, the celebration lasts full week.

although heavy, was nothing in com

the city, about 5 p. M. The second

some very sharp lightning all of which
was in a near vicinity. In the last

1.-The Prisoner of Zenda" is distinctly
a piece OF artistry. Although it fills
five reels and about an hour and a
quarter is necessary to show it, at no
time does it drag. This fact is an i'm
portant one; as heretofore the great
est drawback in pictures to the lover of
drama has been their Sameness. There
is no sameness to this picture. In fact
to see it would be revelation and
time well spent for those who still rise
in their ignorance of pictures and
speed ill-aimed shafts at things they
know not Of

THE DIANA FlOATED.
Macmillan Party Transferring Outfit
To Another Vessel.

Freeport, Me-. July 20.-The steamer
Diana, which was stranded on Barge
point on the southern coast of Labra-
dor, Wednesday night, and tioated the
next night, has arrived at Battle Har-
Dor, Labrador, 80 miles north of Barge
point. A cablegram to that effect
from Donald Macmillan, leader of the
Arctic expedition on the steamer, was
received, Saturday, by his sister, Mrs.
w. c. Fogg.
The message was dated Battle
Harbor,', and read as follows: Ar
rived Battle Harbor. Are transferring
cargo to another ship. Everything O.
k
Whether the Diana was taken in
tow by the Newfoundland revenue
cutter Stella Maris which was sent to
her relief or by some other vessel OF
was able to proceed under her owr
steam was not known here.
Battle Harbor is a fishing settle
ment on several rocky islands above
the Straits of Belle Isle number OF
miles from the mainland. 1t was
from this place that Admiral Peary
sent the story of his successful North
Pole expedition four years ago. There
are practically no facilities there for
making more than temporary repairs.
