Rocxviuie, July 13, The tearing down of the old court house at this place to make room for a more modern structure reveal the substantial building methods of the past generation. The mas- sive walls of the oid house are now torn down within afew feet of the foundation. terior wood work has been remo: each piece of timber is brought to shows the care that was taken in building in the old days. The heavy timbers, securely mortised together in those days, are now sup- planted by spider-like frames fastened to- gether with nails. Several interesting relics have already been found, among them bricks With the names of those who have long since Passed away engraved upon them. The corner- stone of the foundation of the old building is being looked for with much interest by a crowd of persons in daily attendance, as it 1s reported that in it will be found manusoripts of value, copies of newspapers published at that time and (this county is now local option) a bottle of the whisky of the olden time. Postmaster Thos. Dawson is making good Progress in the erection of a tine building on Commerce street, one part of which will be used for @ post office aud the other for his mer- cantile business. Farmers throughout the county have in the past week commenced threshing their wheat crop and fr-m reports the yield 1s considered short. The ¢ is a large yield of straw, but the grain lacks quan-ity and weight. Corn looks well and promises a srg: yield. ; The heulth of this section, notwithstanding the heat, has *-sen excellent. The citizens of this place are anxiously await- ing the oficial count of the census for this town, as it is expected to have more than fully doubled since 180. The enumerators have finished their work in this district, but whether the enameration of the town proper has been kept separate from the outlying territory in the district is not known. The recent hot weather hada br sip | ef- fect on the sales of real estate in this locality, but shrewd buyers are taking advantage of the situation and making investments. During the past week Mr. Samuel Renshaw has sold 76 acres near Halpine station, about three miles from this place, to Mr. J. E. Metzbowers of Paltumore for $7,000. Jas. E. Leaman has bought of the heirs of the late Jas. W. Wiggins two acres of land frouting on the Georgetown pike and on the surveyed route of the Wash- ington and Rockville Electric railway for $600. This is considered the cheapest sale yet made The in- DE LEUVILLE AND MRS. LESLIE.|MUST BATHE BY THEMSELVES. The Story of How He Attempted to Marry Her Offband. Just as the City of Rome was pulling up anchor to leave Liverpool for New York Satur- day Mra. Frank Leslie sent ashore the follow- ing dispatch to the World's London correspond- ent in reply to the message wired to her: “I am not engaged, but am starting for home to attend to my work and to prepare for my lec- ture season.” De Leuville’s attempt this time to force Mra. Leslie into marrying him was actually sensa- tional. The new superintendent registrar of St. George's of Hanover Square district was ready with the license and waiting to marry them, At 9 o'clock when, De Leuville went to Mrs. Leslie's apartments at the Burlington Hotel. to his chagrin the bogus marquis found that Mra, Leslie's trunks were on the hotel omnibus and just starting for Amorica. He wanted to get into the omaibus with her, but she would not let him, so he followed her in a hansom to Euston station and went on the same train to Liverpool. Every time Mrs. Leslie comes to London De Leuville circulates the xepert that she has come ecross the water especially to marry kim. When she arrived a few weeks ago he started the same story, which Mra, ie promptly denied. But tis time De Leuville went a step further than usual by applying for a marriage license, sending @ preliminary notice to the London papers Saturday. ‘Thursday the registrar of marriages for the district ix which De Leavilie lives went to the house of the “marqu y special appointment and received the notice now recorded in his vestry book. De Leuville asked the registrar if he would be on hand to perform the cere- mony at 9 this morning, as he intended to start with his wife for the continent by the 11 o’clock mail train. Though it was before the usual hour the superintendent promised he would be there and he kept his promise. He had tho hiceuse with him, prepared and signed. It de- scribes William Ollivier,Marquis De Leuville,as a bachelor, a marquis, forty-three years of age and living at 98 Victoria street for several years, inthe parish of St. George, Hanover Square, and Frank Leslie, widow, of uo rank or profession, thirty-eight years of ago, residing at the Grosvenor Hotel, in the same parish. It specified that the marriage should take place st the registry office, that there was no impedi- ment or lawfal hindrance. De Leuville is the son of an obscure artist named Oliver, who lived near Scarborough. He saw in the French newspapers one day that the race of the aristocratic Ollivier family in France was extinct and that the title ot the Marquis de Leuville would lapse. He promptly claimed to be a lineal descendant of the Ollivier family, appropriated the title and came to London to trade on it. But his name is found neither in Burke's Peerage nor in the pub- lished lists of the haute noviesse of France. For years De Leuville’s career in London has been full of discreditable adventures with a woman who became infatuated with him. His first escapade was with the daughter of Mme. Tussaud of museum fi whom he married, and she is now living in respectable circum. stances in Madrid. Since his return home from New York the “marquis” has been conspicuous for his open affiliations with the wealthy widow of wcarriage maker. His persistent persecu- tion of Mrs. Leslie this season has been more marked than ever. Mrs. Leslie has a certain standing all her own in certain New York social circles patronized in that locality. In the Home Mutual Building Association, organized hore in March. 1889. by the efforts of Cooke D. Luckett, 551 shares have been taken, of which 9 ha’ > beer redeemed. ‘The work of opening and widening Eastern avenue is progr sing favorably under the supervision of Jos N. Bailey. contractor.

Genera throughout the south Atlantic and gulf states Teports indicate that the weather has been fav- orable to cotton, although the corn crop throughout this sect is generally in need of rain.

Cane, rice and |} corn are also reported in good condition, Some injury has resulted to crops in west and central North Carolina, owing to drought, but so far the injury has not extended to the cotton crop.

Disgraced by a Secret Divorce and Sub- sequent Marriage. A citizens’ meeting called at Fort Worth, Tex., to take action on Mayor Pendleton’s mar- riage to an attractive telephone girl was at- tended Saturday night by a large number of indignant citizens. The resolutions adopted state that “as Mayor Pendleton lived with his wife for nearly a year after he had obtained, as it would seem to us, a secret divorce from her, of which she knew nothing, and he mar- ried another whiie professing his loyalty to her; Resolved, That he, by such act, brought the name of our fair city into contumely and disrepute, proved neglectful to his friends and unworthy of the trust imposed in him; that he has broken the most sacred vows and helped bring disgrace upon his family and friends; that this city condemn and hold as unlawful and disgraceful such action and that he be re- quested to tender his resignation.” It was further resolved ag the necting that Mayor Pendleton be communicated with, by telegraph and asked whether the divorce from his wife was secretly obtained and whether his wife was in ignorance of it, and it was deter- mined that in case he answered in the affirma- tive or refused to answer, steps be taken to bring about his resignation from the may- oralty. Ata late hour a telegram was received from Mrs. Pendleton stating that she knew nothing of her husband’s divorce at the time it occurred. HIS RELATIVES DISAPPOINTED Stanley Promised to Weave All His Money to His American Cousin. John R. Jones. a first cousin of Henry M. Stanley, is a resident of Wilkesbarre, Pa. He isasmall shopkeeper and pretty well to do, Mr. Jones left Wales twenty-eight years ago. He and Stanley were playmates. Mr. Joues is now in London, where he attended the wedding. “I never expected that my cousin would marry. Before he started on his iast African journey I received a touching letter from him, in which he stated that he was now taking his life in his hands once more and might never be seen alive again.” Mrs. Jones said: ‘His blood relatives in this country. to the number of sixteen, never dreamed until recently that he would marry. Even wher the engagement was announced in the newspapers we here would not believe it, because when the explorer was in this country on his last lecturing tour he told one of his cousins that he had not as yet seen the woman he loved well enough to make his wife. ‘I will die an old bachelor and make you all rich,’ he said. We really thought Stanley was sincere at the time, and believe he was, but a change evidently came over his heart, To the best of our knowledge Stanley is worth about $170,000, and will be worth much more before he dies. You see then if Henry had kept his word and died @ bachelor his sixteen relatives in this country would be pretty well fixed for the re. mainder of their lives. But while some of his relatives may be disappointed we are not. Mr. Joues and I have all the mouey we want.” ON A VOYAGE OF DISCOVERY. Four American Girls Sail From Paris to Rouen on the Seine. Four American girls, duly provided with a matron, but unencumbered by companions of the other sex, started Saturday in a little steam launch from the Isle of Jause at Puteanx ona voyage of aisegvery to Rouen. As thére are no longer any passenger steamers on the Seine between Paris and the ancient capital of Nor- mandy, this trip, attempted by our fair com- patriots, is altogether out of the beaten tracks of travel, Athletic young oarsmen and now and then an intrepid band of Parisians in staunch steam yachts and «few persevering canoeists have accomplished this picturesque voyage and passed seutimental or frolicaome moments beneath the shades of the tenth century castle of La Roche Guyon or amidst the crumbling crags of the Chateau Gaillard, coustructed by Richard Cwar de Lion iu de- fiance of Philip. King of France. but it is prob- ably the first ime that this charming reach of the Seine has been navigated by a bevy of American girls in a steam launch fiying the stars and stripes. One of the young ladies has a literary turn of mind, another has a decided talent for sketching, a third plays the mandolin aud the fourth has a fascmating soprano voice. Weather permitting they should have a de- lightful time on the Seiue, which after all is prettier than the Rhine, and is one of the most picturesque rivers in E: pditicundewetne 0-1 A Bottle Not an ‘Original Package.” Judge Kelsey, in the Bridgeport, Conn., city court, yesterday gave a decision on the ques- tion of the sale of liquor in ‘‘original pack- ages.” V.

The colored people at Asbury Park, N.J., are stirred up because Jas. A. Bradiey has been having @ portion of the group of bathing houses at the foot of 24 avenue arranged for the exclusive accommodation of the negroes. Asbury Park and Ocean Grove have a larger Percentage of colored persons than any other towns of their size in New Jersey, and during the summer seasons the hotels all employ negroes in their kitchens and dining rooms. In the evenings as soon as the negrves finish their work th to the beach gnd enjoy th plaza “halt by Mr. Bradley and the one built slong the beach by the Ocean Grove Camp Meeting Association. There are numerous complaints made daily by white people who come to spend the season and are annoyed by the many negroes who gather around the pavilion at the foot of Asbury avenue and occupy the seats on the plaza. Mr. Bradley is an ardent republican and nas been a warm friend of the colored race. He says he is compelled under the circumstances to pro- vide a separate bathing place for the negroes because the whites refuse to bathe with them. Next Monday evening a ival willbe held in the African Methodist Zion Church in West Park, « hamlet of colored people west of Ai bury Park. The members of the league a arranging to hold an indignation meeting at the festival and denounce Mr. Bradley. They also talk of returning to him the money he do- pated to the church Test year. cos NEW ARMS FOR CANADA, The Militia to be Provided With Latest Improved Firearms, There isan unusual amount of activity in British military and naval circles as regards the defenses of Canada at Ottawa. Those in authority believe that England is preparmg to meet any emergency. There isan officer of the British army in Canada just now who has been making an inspection of the Canadian Pacific railway, that he may be in a position to report to the British government the capabil- ittes of that road forthe rapid transport of troops and munitions of war from India to the Atlantic coast and vice versa, The fortifications at British Columbia are being strengthened, and the largest fleet that has been stationed in the Pacific is now concen- trating at Esquimalt. ‘The fortitications at Halitax are being greatly strengthened, and the most stringent orders have jast been issued to prevent any outsider obtuiniug information as to what is going on inside the citadel and forts, During the present summer the adjutants general of the several military districts ure to report on the state of the defenses of the sec- tion which each commands. Before equipping the force with modern rifles in place of the Snyder-Enfield now in use the Dominion gov- ernment has been watching the progress made with the various modern and improved arms now being experimented with in the British and continental armies. It is estimated by the government that it will nece ite an expenditure of $1,000,000 to replace the arms in use with those of improved pattern, and they want to secure the most effective weapon. According to an understanding with the British government, at the time of confedera- tion, Canada was to expend $1,000,000 annually on her defenses, and it is only within the past year or so, after the imperial authorities had Tremonstrated, that parliament had placed this sum at the disposal of the minister of militia, Several heavy pieces of ordnance are shortly to be shipped from England for the defense of British Columbia, and everything points to the fact that England is making active prepa- rations to meet any invasion of her possessions in America, a STANLEY STILL ILL, He Receives Congratulations in His Sick Room. Mr. Henry M. Stanley has not recovered from his recent indisposition. The display of hom- age to tho great explorer and the perhaps too early leaving a sick bed in order to prevent an hour’s postponement of the wedding ceremony proved novlight ordeal to the strength of Mr. Stanley. His weakness from the malady under which he was suffering was noticcable to many of the inguished attendants at Westminster Ab- bey, but it was very happily remarked. as Dr, Parke had already said, that Mr. Stanley's ill- ness was of @ temporary character altogether. Mr. Stanley is today confined to his bed at! Melchet Court. He has veen overwhelmed with notes and telegrams of congratulations on his marriage. THE TIN CUP MINES. A Visit to the Gold Lode That is Ex- pected to Open a Bonanza. The Chicago Inter-Ocean’s St. Eimo, Col. correspondent telegraphs that paper the results of a visit to the Tin Cup mines, where such a wonderrul gold strike is reported to have re- cently been made. ‘The correspondent says: “The situation summed up is this: If the streak or vein just discovered is continuous on its depth to the usual extent of contact veins there is more gold in the camp than any dis- covered since the days of the Pikes Peak excite- ment. Yesterday morning there lay disclosed a vein of 15 feet in thickness, the bottom 8 feet being iron manganese and the upper 7 feet free gold-bearing quartz. The quartz is of a light color, while porous free gold and flakes of gold are plainly visible. From an assay made of the iron ore Wednesday got at Aspen it was found to run $28 per ton in gold, besides iron. ‘The amount of ore taken out since the previous amount named 18 easily $15,000, while that sum will be doubled before the end of the week, n Cup years ago was a prosperous camp, but like Alpin bandoned owing to the enormous expenses in shipping ores to concen- trators and smelters. If the streak continaes the Yin Cup will prove another Leadville, while the lode. now open will prove a bigger bonanza than the famous Comstock mine in Nevada.” — see. BELLE HAMLIN’S FAST TIME, She Trots the Fastest Eighth of a Mile on Record. Just about two years ago the Buffalo mare, Belle Hamlin, startled the horse world by trot- ting a half mile over the Buffalo track in 1.0214, a2.04}¢ gait, Saturday she trotted an eighth in 1494 seconds, at the rate of 293¢ for a quarter and a 1.58 gait, though no horse could carry that clip further than an eighth. She wis driven by W. J. Andrews, who gave ber her head and allowed her to go as fast as she wanted and without the least urging or a touch of the whip. It is certainly a wonderful per- formance und has never been equaled by any trotting horse, and the = pacer that has ever been credited with a such burst of speed is Grown Hail, who recently paced @ quarter in twenty-eight seconds, Mr. Hamlin was highly elated over the result and thought if she could curry such aclip for an eighth she ought to trot a quarter in thirty, and if she accomplishes that he believes she can beat the recerd of Maud 8.

In point of fact, may be trathfully said that it is without aa equal in this respect any where in the world These averments are borne out by the figures given below, which are compiled from the sworn weekly statements Printed in the paper on each Monday in the year, and condensed from the sworn tabular statements showing the average daily circulation of the paper during the year 1889, published im Tux Stan on the 18th of January, 1890, Briefly stated, the points upon which the above claim is based are these: That— 1. The Star has three times the circa- lation of any other paper in Washing= ton! 2 The Star’s circulation in Washing= ton ls doubic that of all the ether daily Papers published in the city added to gether!! 3. Whe Star bas a targer and fuller circulation in the city where printed, im proportion to reading and purchas- ing population, than any other new paper in the world!!! 4. The Siar has the targest regular @ud permanent home circulation of any (wo-cent afternoon paper in the United States!!! In support of these claims and to show the constantly increasing circulation of the paper, attention is invited to the figures following: PAILT CIRCULATION IW 1885-86-87-88-80. 1SS3. 1886.

Of this number, 21,142 were delivered daily by regular carriers at the homes of permancut sub- ecribers. The remaining 6,740 copies represent the salee Over the office counter, at the news stands, cad by newsboys. But of this latter namber s very large proportion is supplied reguiarly to pers manent residents of the city living in lodgings, &c. (not householders), so that its whole circula tion may be literally said to be in the family circle. While its aggregate circulation there fore gives Tux Stan a distinctive and enviable position m modern journalism, the fullness of | its home circulation, the extent to which |it is relied upon by members of the household, and particularly by the pur- | chasing portion of the community, are | the marked characteristics of the paper, to which no other daily journal now published can furnish a parallel. ‘This is no idle boast on the part of the paper. It is a well established fact, demonstrated to the full satisfaction of the sagacious and enter- prising business men of Washington, who seck and know where to find THE LARGEST RETURNS FROM THE MONEY PAD OUT FOR ADVERTISING. This is proven by the growth of Tur Stan's advertising patronage. | Nothing can “more surely illustrate the | esteem in which any article is held by the | public than a constantly increasing demand | for it—day by day, week by week, month by | month, and year by year,—in the face of ad- verse claims and pretentiouscompetition. The figures followirg tell the story on this point: NUMBER OF NEW ADVERTISEMLNTS *RINTED Et 27,082 1885-86-87 58-0 1886. ISS7.

The larger’ space required for advertisements during the Year 1889 as compared with that occupied im 1888 ig even more striking. The average daily space filled by advertise ments in 1888 was 25.10 columns, or 7779 columns for the year; whereas for the year 1889 the daily average waé 29.75 columns, or 9223 edlumns im the aggregate, being a total gain over the pre- vious year of 1444 columns! And this, it mast be remembered, consisted exclusively of the in the way of tax sales, poll lists, election returns, ‘ete., such as occasionally swell the business of political organs, being included in its patrom age. { In conclusion, it is only necessary to say that, _ fm proportion to the extent and high character, Of its circulation, Tux Stan's advertising rates take rank with the very lowest in the country, and to add, finally, that every statement hereis made can be abundantly verified THE CULATION OF THE PAPER 18 SWORN Notice ot the Lowest Prices | 78 PRESS AND CIRCULATION ROOMS
