TRE FOURTH CELEBRATED. At Irvington and Saluda Program Disarranged by Rain. The program for the Fourth celebra tion at Irvington waa somewhat short.r this year than usuul, and waa still furlher rurtailed by the gentle rain which fell during the whole aftemoon. While disappointed from ln>th a pleasure and tinancial standpoint, no doubt the rain, which was badly needed, was of greater benetit to tbe maaaes than the out-door aports would have been. The boat race was not run, although Mr. B. L. Simmons was ready with his new engine for any boat wilhin the specitied rulea and was declared entitled to hol.l the cup for one year. The down-pour of rain in lower Middleaex prevented the pickedteam from that section getting over. This feature of the day was luoked to as most interesting. At night the Opera House was filled, and the entertainment under the manage ment of Mra. Irving R. Messick was greatly enjoyed by all. Whensomeof the visitors learned privately that the whole entertainment was gotten up in one week they expresaed surpriae and were almost ready to declare themselves doubting Thomases. Jupiter Pluvius held sway pretty much of the day on the 4th, and most of the entertainmenta were either abbreviated or broken up by the rain. Sharps, prob ably, had the most successful one. A little shower only came up in the after noon, cooling things. The crowd was very large, and they were liberal in their patronage. Two games of ball were pulled off, one in the morning between Dunnsville and Sharps with score 1 to 1 when rain stopped the game. In the aftemoon Tappahannock and the Courthouae, the former winning KtoO. At Saluda there was alao a large crowd. The corner stone of the monu ment was laid by the Maaona and the unveiling waa attended by volleys of musketry and bugle blaats from the Norfolk Coast Artillery. Governor Mann, ex-Governor Montague, Col. Robt. E. Lee, Jr., and other dignitaries were present, and between rain drops aoaae apeaking waa had. The ladies of the Middleaex chapterof the Dnughters of the Confederacy provided ample re freshments, and in every way carried through their part in good ahape. The Confederate choir was par excellence in its muaic. CAUGHT ON THE FLY. The Northern Neck Bar Aaenciation will meet at Colonial Beach July 13th. Dr. .

"The grove* were Gnd's firat tem pl.-M." and aa tbe sun grows warmer the greenwood worshiperaspread their white tents under the trees. In all the country round about it ia camp-meeting time. ? ? ? Through all the yeara they have loat but little of their old-time character, and th.ir survival has been fully justified. I i.ere ivsoni.'thing in itself uplifting in the groined aiales of great cathedrala, wrap|>ed in a "dim, religioua light"; but since the Hebrew patriarch built his altar and pitched his tent under the oaks of Mamre, the solitude and quiet of the groves have seemed the worlhieat dwelling-place of the living God. The fallingolf in the number of those who *'go to church" ?the convenient church in the next block or around the eorner- presenta one of the vexing problems with which present-day re ligion is confronted. But those who take delight in the simple songs of prayer and praiae, who inquire no further than the comforting story of Christ and Him crucified, still gather at the "love feasts" on the old camp meeting grounds. The murmur of the overarcning leaves is drowned in the diapaaon of a thousand throata singing "The Old-Time Religion." with hearts atune to the theme, or sweiling with that mellow classic of hymnology, "On Jordan'8 stormy banks I stand." The ministers of grace are those who come with a humble and a contrite heart. All look from nature up to nature's God. Whatever may be the varied tunes, the sentiments of the old-fashioned camp-meeting find common expression in the simple linea: I know not where His islanda lift Their fronded palms in air; 1 only know I cannot drift Beyond his watch and care. ?Baltimore News. Preparations are making for the three great camp meetings held an nually in the lower counties of the Northern Neek. Wharton Grove, near Weems, begins Friday, July 29th to last ten days. Marvin Grove, in lower Ri.-hmond county, near the border of Northumberland, will open Friday, August 5th, an.leontinue for ten days. Kirkland Grove, in Northumberland, will open later.
