THE MARCH FROM WINCHESTER ACROSS THE MOUN- TAIN—FRIGHTENING THE INHABITANTS WITH A SKINISH DRILL—A GIRL WHO THOUGHT THEY * WANTED PINE TOP INSTEAD OF WATER. ‘Special Correspondence of The Eveninz Star. Rovxp Hitt, Va., July 27, 1891. Winchester is a thing of the past for cavalry troop Aon their march. Yesterday afternoon at 3 o'clock the troop passed down the main street and out on the road, the bugles now and then awakening the Sabbath stillness. It wasa wrench to part from Winchester. The boys had spent many pleasant hours enjoying the hospi- tality of the citizens, the charms of the citi- zenesses and in inspecting the many historic points in the neighborhood. To men inter- ested in military tactics the entire surrounding country presents an aspect well worth study and the cavalry boys in the intervals of the re- ceipt of hospitality or the agreeable task of dir- pensing the same paid visite to fields where tome of the fleroest fighting of the late war oc. curred, ONE MOMENSE BATTLE GROUND. The entire country, in fact, is one immense battle ground. The heights are pointed out where the confederate batteries were situated and whose capture turned Winchester over to the federal forces. In the town itself are many houses marked by the scars of shot and shi Just on the outakirts etand the confederate and Union burying grounds, containing the remains of many heroes of the great struggle, and the former also the scene of one of the most bit- terly contested of the fights around Winchester. ‘On the main street of Winchester, the site being in part occupied by the buildings of the Valley Female -College, are the remains of the fort built at this point by Washington in 1736, during the dificulty with tne French A portion of the bastion walls are still standing and are being carefi served by the hospitable president of the in- stitution, Rev. John PY Hyder’ who is also chaplain of the second Virginia regiment, the headquarters for which are located at Win- chester. Dr. Hyde was most cordial in his at- tentions to the troop, although the malicious doubt has been expressed that if the girls’ col- lege. over which Dr. Hyde presides with such dignity, had been in session the boys would not have been allowed sueh free and unlimited Toamiag over the premises. The view from the college observatory is a magnificent one and takes in seventy miles of country, comprising half dozen of the battlefields o the civil war. THE COMMISSARY DEPARTMENT A SOFT THING. Yesterday the troop marched about twelve miles and camped in a stubble ficld with the sky asa canopy and the cold night wind asa covering. Capt Neumeyer and Sergt. Spring- mun, however, slept ina tent. It is a remark- ably chilly and “treezious” evening, as the col- ored cook would say, when the commissary de- partment gets left citner in furnishing remark- able meals nader the circumstances or in mak- tng themselves comfortable. Mr. Ed Appling is also connected with the commissary depart- ment and bas rapidly picked up the inherent tendencies of the other members of the depart- ment. Private Donovan last evening had a harrow escape from being shot in mistake for # wild and untamed savage. He rode into camp with a halo of feathers, a blanket and @ Dlood - curdling and the guard betook _ themsely rapidly to the woods. The boys slept well at the improvised camp, although the horses had been turned loose and roamed rather freely among the sleeping men. One large-sized mule in especial took a tremendous fancy to Lieut. Perry and Was seen to jump over him eleven times, how- ever, without disturbing in the slightest the peaceful slumbers of the lieutenant. The In- dian campaign, which Lieut. Perry hae lately enjoyed, has cansed hia sleeping capacities to be of the finest doube-back-action quality. He can drop down and pass immediately into bliss- ful slumber with a rapidity and grace which causes Capt. Barbour and Lieut, Ferguson to blush with shame. A BIVER FORDED. This morning the command marched to Round Hill through a most beautiful country. ‘The well cnitivated fields were gonerally marked by substantial stone walls, and the breed of horses and other stock seemed of a high grade. At the Shenandoah, which was reached about 10 o'elock, the scene was well worthy of an artist. ‘The river wae etrack at Castleman's ferry, but disdaining the rather clumsy ferry boat, which is navigated by means of & lo! rope and tackle, the troopers plunged into the water at the ford and pushed steadily across. ‘The water reached the saddles and the boys clung to the horses in numberless more or leas graceful attitudes in the attempt to keep the Water out of boots. ‘The Jong line of horses splashing through the swift current, with here and there a desperateattempt tolie down, made u thoroughly typical army «cene, although as Capt. Newmeyer suid it would have been an- uvying to have bad a number of sharp shootera on the opposite bunk disputing’ the passige. ‘The passage of the river was followed by the passnge of the mountains, The troop passed through Snicker's Gap, marked during the war by the passage of more than one army. From the top the view was a striking one, the two valleys being stretched out in full view, backed up by the long lines of blue mountains. FRIGHTENING TUE INHABITANTS WITH A SKIRMISH DRILL. ; Going up the mountain the troop went through a very pretty little skirmish drill and the sharp crack of the carbines and clear notes from the bugles caused a number of cit inhabi priuitive order, many of thes pnneipally on ‘the revenue inci Manufacture of what is locally known as “pine top,” being a whisky of a certain order to which the revenue oificer has not received an introduction Many cabins were closed up suddenly as the advance guard of the boys were perceived.

Farm Hand Friete Played the Picador Until His Assailant Trampled Him. A Cortland. N.Y., special nays: Contianp, N.Y., July 27.—George Frieze, farm hand, died early this morning from in- juries received in an unequal fight with an in- fariated bull. Frieze worked on Petrie’s SHOOTING STARS. Of Mosquitoes sing or the flics that sting Or the hammock that droops with uncertain string But the worst of our Angust ills by far Is, six-in-e-seat in a summer car. Poseibly the German lady who declares that tea is nearly as great an enemy to the human race asalcohol bas beert made the victim of a cruel political joke. “Yes,” said Mrs. Canty, “me husband cem here whin the town was new, an’ since thin he has managed to turm over «good bit av ral te." farm, two miles south of here. In the herd of | °*# cattle on the place wasa bull that had made several attempts to attack Frieze. Whenever the laborer went into the lot where the bull was he always carried a three-pronged pitchfork for safety’s sake, ‘On Sunday mornihg Frieze entered the pas- ture to do the milking. He had just «at down on his milking stool when he heard the bel- lowing of the bul, and (saw the animal ohare ing down on him. He quickly sprang fect, and, knowinglie could not reach a place of safety in time, seized his pitchfork. The bull rushed on with his nose almost touching the Found and his tail erect. Just as he reached Frieze the latter sprang to one side and the piteufork into the side of the maddened beast. ing with pain and rage he turned snd once more charged on. the’ farm hand. Again the prongs of the fork were driven into Frenzied, flecked with foam and turned and his side. bleeding from his wounds he again made a rush for Frieze. The move was so sudden that the laborer could not dodge the beast. The pitchfork struck the animal square in the forehead. ‘The force of the charge knocked Frieze to the ground. The bull trampled on him, but the man kept his holdon the fork. The bull saw that his victim was down and rushed at him, and as the fork again stuck in his nose he turned it aside. Catching Frieze on his horns, 1@ tossed him in the air. The bull met him as he came downand again tossed him, catching him on his horns as he fell. Henry Brockman, who was some distance off, heard the cries of the man and the bellowing of the bull. He hastened to the pasture snd ar- Tived in time to see the bull pawing at the form of the latter, who was unconicious. As Brock- man approached the bull picked Frieze up on his horns and hurled him ten feet over » three- rail fence into an adjoining lot. His body was ‘ masé of cuts and brnises and he was disem- boweled, Medical aid was summoned, but nothing could be done. a MAINE IMITATES CANADA. Stopping Fishing Within the Three-Mile Limit From Headland to Headland. ‘The Gloucester fishermen are having trouble again over the three-mile limit law in relation to catching mackerel, but this time it is not the Canadian officials who refuse to allow fish tobe caught within three miles of shore, but the fish wardens of the state of Maine. There area number of small-sized craft that have fitted for inshore mackerel this season, taking eeines of shoal draught, the better to pursue their operations,and the outlook was quite good for a successful season's work, especially as the fish have a tendency to work close inshore on the Maine coast thus far this season. It seems, however, from the story of the cap- tains and crews of the boats that ha’ Gloucester that the Maine officials, in imi tion of their friends across the berder, have determined to draw an imaginary three-mile limit, not following the contour of the shore lone, but including a line drawn from head- land to headland, if the fishermen have under- stood the Maine officials aright. This latter claim, it will be vemembered, our fishermen and the United States have vigorously resisted when set up by the Canadian cruiser officers. ‘The boat Edith L., among others, reports that on Friday and Saturday, while fishing off Old Urehi ach with a seine, she was boarded state officials and warned to desist from seining operations, otherwise the officers threat- ened to make @ prize of the craft and tow her into port. Similar warning, it is said, was given to the other boats, with the result that tishing operations were abandoned and the eraft are returning home. Jt is also said that Porgie catchers were similarly warned. ————_-e+ —___ STRANGLED BY A SHOE BUTTON. Little Raymond Zimmerman Died After His Mother Spanked Him. The surgeon's knife has disclosed the fact that the death of three-year-old Raymond Zim- merman of Camden, N. J., who died a few min- utes after his mother spanked him, was due to shoe button. County Physician Iszard, who made the post-mortem examination, found the button lodged in the trachwa just above the epiglottis, The child, the physician thinks, must have had the button in his mouth when his mother spanked him and the shock knocked it down his throat, causing strangulation. ‘The physician deemed an inquest unnecessary oo gave a certiticate of death from stranguls- ion. ——+e-______ JERSEY’S LATEST PEST. ‘The Rose Chafer Destroying Berries, Grapes, and Fruits. Jobn B. Smith of Rutgers College, who is tho New Jersey State entomologist, has been col- lecting information regarding the “rosebud,” which is now causing so much destruction to vines, fruit, and trees in New Jersey, and the agricultural college experiment station will soon issue an important bulletin on the subject. The present invasion of the “rose chafer” dates back six years, and its ravages have been gradually extending and increasing. The greatest destruction has been done in the southern part of the state, and especially at and in the vicinity of Vineland, where the grapes have been attacked by the insects and the vines are being almost killed by them. Frnit trees of all kinds have suffered in various parts of the state. Last year cherries and apples were at tacked and this has been repeated this season. ‘The strawberries during their season suffered and now the blackberry bushes have been at- tacked, and first the flowers and then the leaves have been stripped. The berries, when they are well set, are seldom attacked. “Wid a gred dale av foinancial profit, oi sup- wid a spade.” Paterfam, who has just returned to the city, says he entirely sympathizes in any reference to the ocean as the bill-owe-y deep. “Charley has had such bad luck with watches,” said young Mrs. Tocker. “He lost two because they got saturated.” “Charley said they got soaked,” remarked her mother. “I know; but saturated is = prettier word and means the same thing. These rains are so Penetrating; I suppose they got into the works and rusted them.” “You said.” she exclaimed indignantly as she laid the hose on the counter, ‘that these were fast colors.” “‘Yes'm,” replied the clerk, “and if you'll take the trouble to watch them after they get started to running you'll see that I was right.” He talked about the immensity of space, of the stars and the constellations and kept on in spite of the fact that she moved uncusily and looked at the clock.

She Was a Beautiful Boston Girl, and no Reason Is Known for the Suicide. A beautiful girl rushed frantically through Berkeley street, Boston, just before midnigh: last Friday and threw herself into the Charles She was Edna Bragg. This much seems to be certain, even though persistent dragging by the police has failed to bring the body to the surface of the stream. When Councilman Quinn took the suicide’s hat from the police station he told the ofticer in charge that he would not divulge the identity of its owner until the body had been recovered, but the secret leaked out. ‘The unfortunate gftl was the seventeen-year- old daughter of Mrs. Viola G. Bragg of No. 17 Berkeley street. Edna is described as having been pretty, bright, vivacious and full of life. Until within a few months she had been a student in Bradford Academy, but she left that institution without finishing the year and re- turned to Boston. ‘The slight ‘investigation which has been made indicates that Edna was what the demure maidens of that fashionable boarding school term wild. Since coming home Edna has, so her mother says, fréquentiy been away two or three days ta time, but Mrs. Bragg believed in her daughter's integet and even now is not cer- tain bat she will return in a day or two. Where sho passed her time during her absence from home is not known to her mother, but others claim to know that her places of resort have been of questionable character. Councilman Quinn, who ise young man and unmarried, met her about three months ago. He has met her since, he says, in a boarding Louse on Shawnsut avenue, and a house which he pronounces respectable, but of which the police have @ different opinion. Guinn said yesterday: “I knew Edna Bragg and J am not ashamed to acknowledge it. She was a bright, accomplished and beautiful gi in every way, and my acquaintance with her was first brought about through an introduc- tion. Iknew her folks to be respectable; I TO NEBKASKA DEMOCRATS. An Appeal to the Rank and File by the Press Association. A Topeka, Kan., special says: Abont thirty- five members of the Democratic Press Associa- tion of Kanaas assembled here in convention. The committee appointed to prepare an ad- dress to the people of the «tate have completed their work and it will be read at the banquet at the Troop House this evening. The address expresses sympathy with any body of persons seeking reform and contending against existing evils in laws and administration of the govern- ment. On the questions which are interesting the farmers at present the address says: “We be- lieve in abolishing the iniquities of clase legis- lation in tariff legislation. We believe in a re- turn to the financial system of the co try Practiced frém the foundation of the govern- ment to the year 1873. We believe in the aboli- tion of the baukruptey aystem. We believe in vigorous and wholesome control of the trans- portation #ystem of the country. To those who favor gayernmental loaniug of money on products of the soil we quote a maxim by o° of the founders of the gofernment—The gov. ernment must not become a banker.’ We op- pore orernmental purchase of the railr mat we believe in legislative control of the in- terest of the people, whose chartered servants they are. We emphatically oppose the propo- sition for the government to purchase the sur- lus products of the soil as being # plain viola- mn of the Constitution.” The administration of President Harrison, the appointment of W. W. Dudley to bis peer Et position, the action of the Senatein uphold- ing Senator Quay and the McKiniey tariff law are strongly denounced. In conclusion the ad- dress makes a strong appeal to the democrats of the state to perfect organizations and stand fast to democratic doctrines. The scheme of fusion with the people's party is not indorsed or advised. —_____seo——____ STREET CAR MEN STRIKE. ‘They Are Required to Work Longer Hours st the Same Wages. The conductors and motormen employed on the Rapid Transit Electric street railway of Newark, N. J., struck work yesterday morning and the entire line has been tied up. The mén made one trip and then returned to thw depot, where they left their cars. The cause of the strike is an increase in the working hours. from ten to thirteen without increased puy. The Rapid Trausit line has been in existence since last year. The company was made up of local busiziess men, who gave the people better transit facilities than the Essex Passenger hall way Co., a monopoly controling the other street car lines. “Last week, however, the Essex Company absorbed the Rapid Tran sit Company, and started in by increasing the men’s work and making other chamges disagree- able to the employes. It is expected thut there will be a general tie up on all ines in a day or two. ———_-e- —_____ WARNING TO EXCESSIVE SMOKERS. A Connecticut Man Who Was Driven to Fits by Tobacco. A strange assault occurred on Cottage street, Rockville, Conn., Saturday night. A promi- nent society lady and her daughter were retarn- ing froma neighbor's and had entered their own yard when a man opened the gate and Tushed into the yard after them. The man, who was one of the best known and most intlu- ential citizens of the city, chased the ladies into the hall and began to hug and kiss them. ‘They were frightened and resisted with all their power. The screams of the ladies soon brought assistance. The man when confronted with his accusers said that bis action was the result of fits, which he was occasionally eub- ject to. These fits affected him in such a way ‘thot he did not realize vhat he was doing. The indignant women and their friends would not accept this excuse, and the physician of the man was sent for, while the poor fellow stood a captive at the muzzle of the inflignaut husband's revolver. When the doctor came he corrob- orated the story of the assailant, and the hus- band was appeased. ‘The doctor says these fits are the result of excessive smoking. ————+oe—___ WILL BE CRITICISED ANYWAY. ‘Mr. Cleveland Consults His Own Conveni- ence xe Regards “stumping” in Ohio.

Edward Seward, who was a star in the No- tional Ball League until his arm gave out, re- cently was in Erie, Pa., in pursuit of two sprint- ers, who, he claims, have cheated him. Last year Seward found a sprinter named Coyne in hard luck, fed, nursed him to health and clothed him.
