The Original Smith. \
Under the heading "The Ancient
Name of Smith" Professor Mahaffy has
a brief contribution to the Atbeuaeum,
pointing out that among the yet un
published curiosities of the Fetrie
papyri is a list of names connected the
manufacture of beer. These names
are oddly unlike either Creek or Egyp
tian names, and are suspected to be ab
breviations. "There is one," says
Professor Mahaffy, "which appears
regularly in the same form, and of
which we can give no further explana
tion. It is the name Smith. We have
never found anything like it before,
and it is surely worth telling the many
distinguished bearers of the name that
there was a man known as Smith in
tbe twentieth year of the third Ptol
emy, 227 B. C, and that he was occu
pied in brewing beer or in selling it.
11a there any other English name com
parable to the in antiquity .
STAUNTON, VA., FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 7, 1900.
WOMAN SHOOTS BOXERS.
I
. American Lady Successfully Repellcc
Attack, of a Mob.
' Minneapolis, Minn., A'-g. 27th.
Mrs. Eugene Crane, of Shanghai
' China, arrived here last week. Whilt
. visiting at Sinu, fifty miles from We
1 Hai Wei, Mrs. Crane was attacked b)
a mob of Boxers at the residence of J.
T. Elllst in. She bad been visiting at
< the house of the British consular agent
earlier in the evening in company with
Mrs. EPiston. As they started for
home about 9 o'clock a Russian accost
ed them, saying he was fearful of a
Boxer uprising, and that they had bet
ter lookout for themselves. Thorough
ly alarmed, the women hastened home
aud barely entered the house before a
dozen Boxers were hammering at tlie
door. They tried'to break down .the
door, but failing in this one of them
secured entrance through a window.
Mrs. Crane ran into the next room
for ber revolver. When she ie turned
the Chinaman was inside the roam and
helping another man to enter. She
fired aud tbe man dropped. Tbe one
iv the window hung in fall view, and
Mrs. Crane rushed up and placed the
revolver against his breast and fired
again. He fell back into tbe crowd.
The mob started for the rear of the
bouse, when Mrs. Crane opened fire
again, dropping another. She and Mrs.
Elliston afterwards dragged tbe China
man, who bad fallen in tbe house, out
on the street, where a half dozen other
dead Chinamen were found the next
morning.
Complimenting General Lee.
Few defeated generals have been so
reversed as was Robert E. Lee. Every
Southern man aud woman admired
him. The author of "A Girl's Life in
Virginia" tells a little story that shows
how much he was loved by children.
A year after the surrender General
Lee journeyed across the mountains
on his old war horse Traveler to pay a
visit to tbe author's mother. Un the
night of his arrival he said:
"Today an incident occurred which
gratified me more than anything that
has happened for a long time. As 1
was riding over the desolate mountain
region I was surprised to find, on a
sudden turn in tbe road, two little girls
playing on a large rook. They were
poorly clad, and after looking at me a
moment began to run away.
'* 'Children,' said I, 'don't run away!
If you knew who I am you wouldn't
run away from me.'
"'We do know you,' they auswered.
'"You never saw me before,' I said,
'for I never passed along here.'
"'But we know you,'said the chil
dren. 'We've got your picture in our
bouse. You're General Lee! We ain't
dressed clean enough to see you,' and
they scampered off to a hut on the
mountainside.''
Then the General told of another ad
venture he had had the same day.
While riding through thick woods be
met a man who, recognizing him, stop
ped and, throwing up bis hat in the
air, exclaimed: "General, please let me
cheer you!" and then hurrahed as
loudly as he could.
General Lee was too great a man to
be excited by ordinary applause. On
the contrary, he was annoyed by a
compliment to his valor or skill as a
general. But he was touched by the
compliment which the two little girls
of the mountain paid: "We ain't
dressed clean enough to see you.''—
Youth's Companion.
Ghosts would frighten many people
who are not afraid of germs. Yet the
germ is a real danger. If this micro
scopic animalism could be magnified
to a size in proposition to its deadii
ness it would show like a giant python,
or fire breathing dragon. The one fact
to remember is that tbe germ is pow
erless to harm the body when the
blood is pure. It is far easier to keep
the germ out than to drive it out after
it obtains a hold in the system. Dr.
Pierces Golden Medical Discovery is
the most powerful and perfect of blood
purifying medicines. It increases the
quantity as well as the quality of the
blood, and enables the body to resist
disease, or to throw it off If disease has
obtained a footing in some weak organ.
Wherever the digestion is impared, tbe
nutrition of the body is diminished,
for the blood is made from the food
which is eaten, and half digested food
cannot supply the body with blood in
quantity and quality adequate to its
needs. For this condition there is no
remedy equal to "Golden Medical Dis
covery." It cure« ninety-eight out of
every hundred persons who give it a
fair trial. When there is constipation
Dr. Pieice's Pleasant Pellets will
promptly relieve and permanently cure.
The follawing paragraph from an
exchange illustrates the poverty of the
English language:
A sleeper is one who sleeps. A sleep
er is that in which a sleeper sleeps. A
sleeper is that on which the sleeger
runs while sleeper sleeps. Therefore,
while tbe sleeper sleeps in the sleeper,
the sleeper carries the sleeper over the
sleeper under tbe sleeper until the
sleeper, which carries the sleeper,
jumps the sleeper and wakes the sleep
er in the sleeper by striking the sleeper
under the sleeper on the sleeper, and
there is no longer any sleeper sleeping
in the sleeper on the sleeper.

Hicks for September.
The Vulcan storm period is central
d on tbe Kth, extending from the 6th to
11 tli. Marked disturbance"-* on land
aud sea will ocsnr about this time.
I The storms of this period will cnlmi
e nate progressively from west to east
,j and along the south coasts from the
„ Bch to 11th. A rapid and great change
r to higher barometer and much cooler
t weather will follow from about the 9th
t to 13th. Au early dash of suow in the
t, Sar west and north, and frosty nights
r Will visit many sections of the country
. dW'ngand immediately following the
j Storm of this period. About the 13th
. to 16th falls a reactionary storm peri
. od, daring which the barometer will
3 fall, a change to warmer will pass from
j west to east followed by rain in many
i parts of the country.
, From tbe 16th to 26th the storm dia
l gram shows a very unusual combina
tion of storm producing causes. There
, are two distinct periods of disturbance
I wi thi v the Mercury brace- 10th to 27tb
? rz_»—unilUj;he_ Vulcan storm period,
, 17th to 21st, and the reactionary storm
, period, indicated by the stars, 24th to
; 26th. But moon is ou the celestial
i equator ou the --nil, and new and in
apogee on the 23rd, which facts, to
gether with the many perturbing
i causes centering ou these dates, indi
cate that a spell of prolonged stormy
and violent weather will prevail al
most throughout the mercury period.
This is another one of those peculiar
times in which, if no violent storms I
occur, there will be phenomenal and !
unseasonable heat, brassy, hazy, omin- i
ous weather, and severe seismic and
earthquake disturbances in divers sec
tions. We think that great and dan
gerous equinoctial stoims will sweep
the south seas aud coasts between the
19th and 26th, and that many violent
inland storms will visit interior and *
lake regions at the same time. Heavy
electrical storms, with black, ugly g
clouds, may be looked for in connec
tion with these equinoctial storms'.
From Wednesday the 19th to Sunday
the 23rd is one of the periods in which j,
probable violence and dauger may arise.
Watch the stoun clouds, especially on
aud along the waters, all through this
part of the month. As suggested above, *.
early and decided dashes of cold, sleet
and snow are likely to follow close on _,
the heels of very hot weather, along »
westeru and northern sides of storm
areas. A Vulcan storm period is brew- h
ing as September goes out, but Moou
is at greatest declination south on the
29th, hence the atmospheric tide will
lean southward, keeping the air crisp
and cool during the last days of Sep

Elkins' "Uncle.'-
I In tbe Second Congressional District
i of West Virginia the Democrats two
I or three weeks ago nominated tbe Hon.
. I Thomas B. Davis as their candidate
- against the Hon. Alston Gordon Day
i ton, who has acquired fame as a statt-s
--i man, mainly because he succeeded the
i Hon. William I*. Wilson. Colonel
• Davis is an uncle of the charming wife
of Senator Elkins, one of the most in
corrigible Republicans in tbe United
States. Soon after bis nomination ir,
was noised about in Republican circles
that Colonel Davis had been dissuad
ed by bis distinguished nephew in-law
from making the race. This report
has obtained wide circulation and bus
been generally accepted as a fact. It
develops, however, that Colonel Davis
has never promised Senator Elkins
not to run for Congress against Day
ton, but that, on the contrary, he is
making abont tbe liveliest race West
Virginians have witnessed in mauy a
day. More than that, the prospects
are that.he will defeat Mr. Daytgßj.
thereby adding one more vote to the
Democratic strength in the Fifty sev
enth Congress. Colonel Davis' suc
cessful candidacy in all probability
will cost Senator Elkins some votes in
the Legislature at Charleston next
winter, and in that way he will per*
form a double service to tbe Democrats,
since Senator Elkins would bave no
votes to spare under the most favora
ble circumstances. It begins really to
look very much as if the Hon. John T.
McGraw, sturdy Democrat, will be the
next Senator from West Virginia.
