A Huge Excursion.

probably the largest excursion that
ever was run to the Luray Caverns was
that which passed through Shepherds
town over the Norfolk & Western Rail-
way last Sunday. The excursionists
were from Pennsylvania. and came
from Philadelphia, Reading, Potts
vile. Allentown, Lebanon and other
points on the Reading Railroad. The
first train left the city Of Reading AT
$50 O'Clock Sunday morning. The
frst train passed through Shepherds
Town at I.4O a. m, and others follow
ed at irregular intervals until noon
There were twelve trains in all, each
train made up of twelve coaches. The
hauled about $500 persons in all. Most
OF the trains stopped in Shepherds-
town, waiting for orders or signals.
The return began in the late after
noon, and the first excursion train
roared through Shepherdstown at about
s o'clock. the last at 1910 midnight
The N. & w. couldn't provide enough
passenger engines to haul all the
trains, and freight engines were press
ed into service. II is said that thou
sands OF persons tried in vain to buv
tickets. but rs only a certain number
were allotted TO each city, they we're
refused. Another big excursion will be
run from the same section, it is report
ed. on October 23d, and again on No
vember 9th. The tickets ranged in
price from So 81 to 81 So, bringing in
a pretty good revenue for the rail-
roads, the owners of the cavcTns and
the Lurav folks who hauled them in
automobiles and fed them.

The Battle Abbey of the South, a
classic building made possible through
the generous gifts Of Charles Broad
way Rouss, is a delightful feature OF
mat section OF the city. II houses a
million dollar collection Of paiatings
within its walls-gcms OF the best art
OF ancient and modern masters. An
other room is wonderfully interesting
because OF the exceedingly beautiful
mural paintings of a French artist,
showing the various groups represent
ing the Confederate arms. There are
General Lee and his staff, each
figure portrait; General Jackson and
his infantry, General Stuart and his
cavalry, the artillery, the navy and
other stirring representations. The
main nom OF the building is given
over te a remarkable collection Of por-
traits OF Confederate officers, includ-
ing practically all OF the generals OF
the army-and among the rest Is
fine oil painting OF our gallant Colonel
Vim. A. Morgan.
Adjacent to the Battle Abbey Is the
Confederate Soldiers Home, whcrd
the State OF Virginia cares for the
veterans who wore the gray. There
are not so many as there were, bu.
those who are left have a comfortable
home in which TO end their DAYS. We
asked for Remington SPOTS, the only
Shepherdstown man now in the home,
and how glad he was TO see somebody
from the old town. He is comfortable
and contented and looked fine in his
handsome uniform Of Confederate
gray.
Space fails us TO tell OF the abound
ing hospitality that we enjoyed from
Richmond friends. new and old, and OF
the pleasant episodes that made our
visit SO enjoyable. Nor can we describe
the places OF interest in the old time
Richmond-the church where Patrick
Henry made his famous oration; the
old capitol and its statue OF Wash
ineton; the place where Captain John
Smith landed; the White House Of the
Confederacy; the historic churches
and other ancient buildings. All Is,
we just want to go back once more real
soon and see more OF the delightful
city and its charming people.
