AN OLD MANS CHOICE.

(These lines are taken from Pom
fret's "Choice."D
If Heaven the grateful liberty would
give
That I might choose my method to
live;
And all those hours propitious Fate
should lend
In blissful ease and satisfaction spend;
Near some fair town I'd have a private
seat,
Built uniform. not little, nor too
great;
Better if on a rising ground it stood;
On this side fields. on that a neighbour
ing wood.
A little garden, grateful to the eye,
And a cool rivulet ruin murmuring by,
On whose delicious banks a stately
OF shady lines or sycamores should
grow.
At the end of Which a silent study
placed
Should be with all the noblest au-
thors graced:
Horace and Vergil in whose mighty
Immortal wit and solid learning
shines.
That life may be more comfortable
yet,
And all my joys refined, sincere and
great;
I'd choose two friends, whose. COM
pan would be
A great advance to my felicity.
Would bounteous HEAVIER once more
indulge, I'd choose
(For who would so much satisfaction
lose
As witty nyn1phs in conversation
give?)
Near some obliging, modest fair to
If Heaven a late of many years
would give.
Thus I'd in pleasure, ease, and plenty
live.
And as I near approach the verge Of
life.
Some kind relation (for I'd have no
wife)
Should take upon him all my worldly
~ care.

STATEMENT FROM
PRESIDENT FAIRFAX

II am optimistic. Notwith
standing the bad weather or Sun
day. and tho clouds that are now
towering over, l feel that the eie-
n,ents will be with Ms q greater
part OF the week. hope 50. at any
rate. for we have the greatest list
of entries we have ever had In
many OF OF the departments. par
ticularly In that pertaining to cat
tie. And this Is the time in which
Virginia is looking forward to Its
cattle development. With the
scarcity OF meats I'm every section
OF the country. our state should
look forward to becoming one OF
the great cattle producing sections
of the country.
Eve have the land and the cn-
mate and the people, and the ex-
hihits at this fair should show the
world that we have the hest there
is in the cattle line.
THE farm products exceed
those OF last year. There may not
perhaps. be as large exhibits from
some, of the counties, but this liz
due to the early drought. The
farmers. however. have splendid
showing.
AS whole, think the public
will like this fair better than any
Of its predecessors. All we hope
for. is good weather."

Washington, Oct. 5.--There will be
no reception OF Mexican wounded by
American army officers at Naco.
Arix., opposite Naco. Sonora, where
Villista and carranztsta forces are re-
ported as about to engage In another
battle.
1t has been decided by the state
and war departments that 1t IL not
the duty of the United States govern
ment TO take care OF Mexicans VINO
may be wounded In fighting between
the Mexican factions at this time. and
officers on the border have been SO
informed.
This decision resulted from the ap-
plication made yesterday on behalf of
twenty-five Mexicans wounded in the
fighting, which has already occurred.
that they be brought into the United
States army camps and given shelter
and medical treatment.
Secretary Bryan finds in the adyices
reaching him from Mexico basis for
the belief that everything Is progress
sing satisfactorily toward peace and
that the conference to be held at
Aguas Calientes next Saturday will ef-
feet an amicable settlement OF all the
present issues He expects John r..
Silliman. who has been with Carranza
for tho last two months. to arrive In
Washington In a day or two and re-

the church be given a show TO state
their case. Councilman Jones said
that they had been given every OPP
portunity heretofore to appear before
The committee. but had not taken ad-
vantage of II.
President Peters then presented a
petition from the trustees. Rev, w. r
Hall and Attorney Isaac Diggs, ask
ling that the ordinance be sent back
to the committee SO they could be
heard.
II will agree to this" said Mr.. Pol
lock. If the trustees will meet us half
way. II they will agree to withdraw
proceedings, or ask Judge Scott for a
postponement OF the hearing In the.
Circuit court, I, for one. will vote to
send the ordinance back to the COM
mittee. But the church must act fair
with us"
This precipitated considerable dis
cussion, engaged in by Messrs. Fred
Powell, Edgar B. English. T. Gray
Haddon. Gilbert X. Pollock, C. C.
Jones, Clarence Seaton and President
Peters.
Mr.. Peters had offered a motion re-
IeTrlnR the resolution, ana IN order to
satisfy the members of the intention
of the church trustees, he conferred
with Rev. Mr. Hall and Mr. Digs
counsel for the church.
Discussion Becomes Warm.
In the meantime the discussion be-
tween Messrs. Powell Jones and
English became heated. Mr.. Jones
had stated that the committee had
practiced no 'gumshoe" work. and
that action had been taken on the
ordinance deliberately. mainly for the
purpose Of preventing the cOlored
Congregation from injecting itself into
"one OF the best white sections Of tbs
city, where orphan ,asylumns. board
Ing houses. schools, colleges, hos
pitfalls and many of the best people OF
the city abound"
And" continued Mr.. Jones. 1T ID

pulled OF, must have been done by
the committee.
Mr.. English Indignantly denied tina,
any member OF the committee on
ordinances had done anything wrong.
and challenged Mr.. Powell to show
any.
Mr.. Ferguson, a new member OF
tho committee, denied that anything
out Of the ordinary had TRANSFERRED
In committee.
Then Mr.. Peters reported that coun-
sci for the trustees agreed not 10
sell the church before January !. but
declined to remove the case from
court, or to postpone consideration.
Parties Are ImmOvablc.
After further discussion, Mr.. Seaton
asked that the rules be suspended, so
That Mr.. Diggs might explain the situ-
alton to council Mr.. Rogers amend
ed this by moving council take re-
cess for Ave minutes and the president
appoint committee Of Ave to confer
with Mr.. Diggs and the trustees. This
wan done. but without avail, as the
committee, embracing Messrs. Rogers.
Seaton. Jones, Powell and Pollock. re-
ported back that the lawyer and the
trustees were immovable
Mr.. Peters then withdrew his reso-
luton to send back and offered
another, that the original ordinance
be adopted.
1t was adopted, and Mr.. Peters an
nounced, that he had seen the call
for special meeting OF the board Of
aldermen.
Mr.. Diggs said last night that the
trustees of Immanual church had
practically disposed of the church to
the colored congregation. and that, II
council did not see At to permit the
use of the church by colored people,
an appeal could be taken to the courts.
I'VE will ask Judge Scott for per-
mission to sell the church. We would
like to sell it to the colored people
for they offer more money, but we
must sell 1t to some one" said Mr..
Diggs.
The ordinance as adopted makes
Of Fifth street. on the east side. from
Leigh to Duval street. two blocks. in
stead of one, as now considered. be-
cause jackson street does not pass
through the block TO Sixth street. al
though the west side of Fifth street,
is broken by the entrance Of jackson.
