Hartman’s dog, the cause of the $5000 suit for damages, has held up the jury, and when court adjourned this afternoon the jurymen, who had been out since noon, sent word to the Judges that they could not agree. They were locked up for the night.

If Domestic Products Slighted Business Will Languish, Are Interesting Paper by J. W. EKerr, Giving the Cause of Hard Times Locally. A timely article over the signature of James W.

Our pecple to-day are not Brospering, and this statement applies to the property-owner, who mourns over vacant stores aud_houses, reduced rent rolls and de- preciated vaiues, as well as 1o the mechanic who spends balf bis time idling on the strects, the laborer who tekes his turn with pick or shovel on the boulevard in his effort to keep body and soul together, and the manu- facturers who struggle o upho.d a losi business, hoping for the good times th Bot come. While the duil years throu which we bave been passing have not been marked by many siartling failures, there are meny instances where men have honestly set- tled up their accouunts, locked the doors of their w.tksnops and left for other fields of quietly accomplished, attract litsle “attention At the time and hardly make a ripple on the surface, but the resulis are what we are leeling to-day. Our merchants have probably been the last 1o feel the bad effects of these changes, and in the first fustance perhaps they were benefited by them. The working population were probably living on & higher plane toan those of auy otuer lcity; » large proportion had accumulated some reserve funas and many owned their homes, Under these conditions the consump- tion of bouseho!d supplies was notat first effected by loss of employment; the sca'e of living continued the same untii the accumu- lation of prosperous years became exhausted and the peo began to realize thst they had 10 adjust themselves 1o changed conditions or leave ihe State.

Notwi ing these obstacies our mawuufse tinued the uphill fight against host and foolish prejudices, slowly but steadi'y gaining ground. Those who had so long con- irolled this market, however, were not going tosurrender it withouts struggie. The era of cheap goods dawized upon us. Imjorters ex- erted themselves 1o secure advantages for oods of Eastern manufsciure in low west und freight rates. The products of the prison factories of Ore- g0 ana the East were offered in competition with those from our own manulacturers. Cap- tivaicd by Iow prices our peaple have patr. ized these importations, and in dolug 5o have | worked their own ruin.’ In_thelr purchasing | they have saved the dimes, but have lost the doliars by the ciosing of the factories which gave them employment. In a fair open mar- ket unaer equal conditions our manufaciurers can hold their own; but if this unequal stride is to continue our City will see worse times | than 1t has yet experienced. The way out of our difficulties is in the | bands of our people, for we import asufi- ciency of supplies which eould be manufac- tured here, the manuiacture of which would keep all reasonably busy.

Maryland occupies ¢he room (in the Confederate Museum at Richmond, for- merly the residence of President Davis), which was during the war Mrs. President Davis' dressing-room, says the Richinond Disvatch. A relic of great interest is the pistol that was worn by that gallant cav- alier, Major James Breathed of Maryland, of whom General Lee is reported to have seid: “With an army ol Breatheds [ could have conquered the worla.” In the retreat from Petersburg to Appo- mattox Major Breathed of Stuart’s horse artillery was in command of several troops of cavalry. Wken near the high bridge sbove Farmville, the enemy press- | ing behiud in great force, General Rosser ordered Major Breathed to turn and | charge them with his men. The major repeated the order to ‘' charge,”’ and dasbed abead on s magnificent bay. At the same moment two Union officers, mounted, spurred out from the enemy’ lines and came on. They met midway between tie sdvancing lines. Pellmell tbe Yankee horsemen feil upon the Con- federate major, single and alone. They bad aimost borne bhim down, when Breathed spurred his horse and poinung bis saber as the animal sprang forward ut his steel through the breast of one of is sssailan The remsining Yanke made a tremendous sweep with bis saber, and Breathed, 1o avoid the biow, threw himeel! jorward upon his horse’s neck, lost nis balance and fell. The Union officer with & vell sprang for him. in falline, Breathed’s boot had caught in the stirrup. He foungtt on his back, and in &« moment the Union officer would have had the advantage, when a sergeant of the major's command dashed up and shot the Union efficer dead, Major | NevCNek7s | facturers met at the Monongahel: Breathed sprang up and with one boot | off and the otheron mounted the Union officer’s horse, led the chargiug column against the enemy, routed them and took many prisoners.” Major Breathed sent the sword, ring and papers to the wife of the Union ofticer he killed, writing to her that he died a brave ana noble soidier. | The pistol he kept and at the close of the | war presented it to Miss Shepherd of Shepherdstown, W.

Harris, the real estate agent at Sunset Valley, says that within the last six months no less than twenty houses have been erected and that an equal num- ber are in course of construction. Building lots have increased in value correspond- ingly. The great drawpack, however, lies in the bad condition of the streets and avenues all through the valley. They could not be much worse than they are at the present time. Steps are, however, now being taken to improve the roadways. Tenth avenue, from H to O street, is about to be opened, and this will be the initiative to other improvements in a similar line.
