August U1. * Ret ponding to invitations extended by town authorities and business men's aso ? ations in various towns between Win ester and Lexington, and the Roanoke Board of Trade in particular. City Coun ilman Heatwole of Baltimore, who re '?ntlv agitated an investigation of rail roads in the Shenandoah valley, in which the ?-it v of Baltimore owns $1,000,000 worth of stock, came to the valley yes terday for the purpose of conferring with local authorities. It is his intention to press the investi gation and insist upon the railroads pro viding better tracks, rolling stock and general service. The city of Baltimore laims to never have received a divi dend. It has just been discovered that the Valley railroad, which is under Bal timore and Ohio management, owns large tracts of land in Salem, which lies along the proposed extension from Lex .ngton to Roanoke. This extension has already lieen graded, but work was stop ped several years ago. and nothing has >een done since that time. Councilman Heatwole will make a thorough investi gation of conditions in this section of the state. Lightning a few nights ago struck two old barns on the Cherry Meade farm. :.ear Summit Point, Jefferson county. W. Va., owned by M. Lohr Capper or" Win chester, and they were totally destroyed, together with about N00 bushels of wheat, ?tew hay, straw and much lumber. A new barn twelve feet away caught fire several times, but was finally saved. The loss amounts to about $2,000, with >Stv> Insurance. The Virginia Hotel, at Staunton, one of the most historic hostelries in the state, has been sold to A. T. Moore of Newport News, Va., for ?1 cash and as sumption of a debt of ?47,200.'

William Miller White and Miss Bessie r>telle Willis, members of well known Frederick county families, were married Wednesday evening at the home of Mrs. Klizabeth A. Horsey, on South Washing ton street, by Rev. H. E? Richardson of the local I'nited Brethren Church. They will live with the groom's parents at Stephens City. Lutheran Convention. The eightieth convention of the Evan gelical Lutheran Synod of Virginia is now in session in Bethany Church, near Lexington, the meeting having been called to order Wednesday morning by the president. Rev. Ltr. George S. Bowers of Win. ester. One of the principal ques tions before the synod is the proposition uniting all the Virginia Lutherans into one synod, but it is not likely that action a ill be taken .it this time. The present Virginia synod embraces all the Shenan doah valley and several churches east of the Blue Ridge and a few in West Vir ginia. William C. Ritter of Millwood, Clarke county, said to be one of the most ac complished deaf mutes in the country, has been selected as principal of the new "virginia State School for Deaf and Blind ?'<dored Children, which will begin its tifst session in handsome buildings at Newport News September 8. Mr. Ritter v. us engaged in newspaper business for number of years before taking up edu i ational work. While reading a newspaper Mrs. Anna tlarriton fell from a buggy driven by her daughter, Mrs. Virginia Wldmyer, near Reliance, Warren county, a few days ago and sustained injuries which left her in a precarious condition. Mrs. Henry Haines of Capon Bridge, W. Va., who had gone to the home of Mrs. 'ieorge Reynolds at Whitacre, this coun ty. after attending church services a few nights ago, stumbled and plunged head long down a long (light of stairs, and was seriously injured.

At the annual conference of the Vir ginia Christian Church, held this week at Newport, Page county, it was. decided by tne conference to as-ume a debt of $2,200 on a lot in Winchester on which it is pro posed to erect a new church building.

West Virginia's tiii-t road commissioner, who recently assumed the office, has unearthed .in o 1.1 law which gives the county courts power to make prisoners work on the pub lic roads, and as a result it is expected that between and .TOO state prisoners will be turned out shortly, in charge of guards, and made to tv*rk on the public high waj s. It Is reported that steps will be taken at once by the Baltimore and Ohio railroad to se?ure an Injunction restraining all Mate and county officials in West Vir ginia from enforcing the 2-cent rate. So far the Coal and Coke, t;,*> <*hesapeake and Ohio and the Virginian railroads have all secured injunctions, while the Norfolk and Western railway i* now preparing to ?lie an application in Kanawha county for a restraining order.

Singleton declared that the valley pike, (between Staunton and Winchester, was one of the bent long stretches of road he : has ever walked over In any country. The seven-week drought, which caused irreparaole damage to some of the grow ing erons In the Shenandoah valley, was i broken the early part of the week, and rain lias fallen nearly every day. with the j result that much of the corn in particular j has been revived, and there are indica tions now for a fairly good crop. It is j predicted, however, that tlu price of corn i will he higher than at any time since the civil war. When Rev. W*. M. Green of the South ern Methodist Church drove up to Whit- j acre, this county, last Sunday to hold regular services li found an audience j consisting of ore small hoy.
