Robert E. Lee Camp of ex Confederate veterans passed through Wasbiugton Monday on their way to Richmond.

Everywhere they experienced kind treatment and boundless hospitality. A violent wind and rain . storm brokeover Wilmington. Del., Wednesday, doing great damage. A big oak tree was uprooted and fell on a double frame dwelling, crushing in the roof and killing three persons. A two-months-old child, which lay in bed with its mother, was extricated from the crushed timbers alive. Of the persons charged with being implicated itt the murder of Col.

The executions will take place next ilonday. The society of the Army of the Potomac met at Saratoga Wednesday. Gen. Lucius Fairchild was oue of the vice presidents. Several resolutions were offered on the matter of the return of the captured flags, but all were laid on the table. Resolutions were adopted, inviting the survivors of the Confederate army of .Northern Virginia to the annual meeting at Gettysburg in July, 1888. Jliss Rosenthal, of Raleigh, JST. C., was run over by the fast mail on the AtlanticCoast Line and killed en Thursday evening. She was riding iu a buggy with a | young man. The horse became unman- I agable and backed upon the track before | the advancing train. The young man j jumped out, to better manage him, and the | young lady jumped cut on the other side, j fell on the track and was caught by the ! train. An attempt was made about 2 o'clock Wednesday morning by a gang of nice men to puil down the figures of "the lion j and the umcorn," which decorate the front j of the old State-House iu Boston. Who j ever fastened the ropes to the effigies was evidently familiar with the building. The action, of course, was intimately connected with The antagonistic feeling against the Queen's jubilee in Faneuii Hall. The juMivo i.: London was a stupendous j success. Ai least one minion peopie were crowded aloi:g the route of the royal procession, about three miles in length. The impression left on the minds of those who saw the pageant is, that whatever boundless wealth, military pomp and illustrious rank could do to create and heighten the effect of the State's show of loyalty, or demonstrate the affection of the people for j their sovereign, was done for the day's demonstration, and that the result sur passed anything of the kind ever seen in Europe, in modern times at least.

A Chicago Inter- Ocean special from Dan-1 vilie. 111., says the following letter was re- j ceived: Beai'voir, Miss.. June 23. i Col. Phocion Howard, I)annUe, 111.: Dear Sir: In answer to your letter of: request by the Danville Farmers' and Mechanics' Institute that 1 should deliver an address at its fair, I reply as I did last year. Some years ago I delivered an address at the Winnebago County Fair. I was received with great courtesy. There I was svith friends?for my memory weift back to tiif> months of June. Julvand August, 1832, was lieutenant upon the stall of | Colonel Zachaiy Taylor, I was stationed at Prairie Du Chien, or Fort Crawford, as it was tiieu known. ?ud during the memorable and historic Black Hawk War, it was my good fortune to help in protecting the pioneer settlers of that country, whose de scendants I spoke to at Kockford. I cannot come to Illinois this year. Thankit;g the association through you, I have only to say, as I said last September in an open letter to Colonel J. T. Schare, of Baltimore, that I deny the charges made against me by Gen. Wm. T. Sherman, in which he says I was foremost in encouraging the late war. I say to you, my dear j Colonel, that 1 did all in my power tc prevent the late war, and that I never looked for cor aspired to the post of Chief or Executive of the Confederate States. I may sr.}- that the order of the War Department to return the captured flags to the late Confederate States was a violation of all known military precedents. You will find in any history of the late war that there were but 20 regiments of regular troops in the army of the North, and of the total of 560 Confederate flags captured, it is questionable if the 20 regiments captured 50. The flags were captured by the volunteer army of the North, and belong to the several States, and have no right to be in the National Capitol. Respectfully yours, Jefferson Davis. An Alleged Miracle. A correspondent of the Globe-Democrat at Punn, lil., tells of an alleged miraculous cure of stammering at a revival in Mcntgomeiy county, that State, The person on whom the alleged miracle was worked is Wm. De Witt an old citizen. Until the time of his conversion he had always been a worldly man from the Bible standpoint, and had also suffered from stammering. So great was the extent of his affliction that even his most intimate friends and associates found much difficulty in understanding whenever he attempted to converse with them. During a recent revival of religion, conducted" in the old-fashioned style, with mourners bench accompaniment, and where the seeker is expected to persevere until ! positive that from his feelings the blessing 1 of forgiveness and acceptance has come up| on him and he may arise a saved sinner, ! De Witt became a convert. The most j wonderful part about tbe circumstance is | that when he became convinced that he was | really through the ordeal he also discovered : that his speech had been made perfect, and ! he could talk as smoothly and easily as if j he had never been afflicted with stammerI ing. Old acquaintances who knew him for j years have heard him.talk, and are also witj nesies to the remarkable fact. The Mother of Thirty-three Children. The largest family of children in America, born of ooe mother and father, is , probably that of Mrs Brandon, of Moundsville, W. Ya. The mother is only 77 years old. She has given birth to and"reared 33 children?five daughters and 28 sons. Six! teen of the sons measure in height collect! iveiy 9G feet 7 inches. All of these 16 were ! volunteers in the Union army during the ; late civil ?ar. One was killed at Pittsburg ' Landing, one died in Andersonville, and j one, Charles, the youngest boy, served the j longest term in Libby prison of any Union 1 soldier now living. Of the 14 boys who survived the war, all were wounded and are drawing pensions. 3Irs. Brandon, the mother of this band of soldiers, has lately been granted a pension of $2,2-30. The i eld lady is as bright and active as most | women of one-half her age. She is fond ! of r.':i<V)Or pyr?.,r>H a ka-xi iro innfe witma five nours. I - ; ! Cleveland'* War Record. : The Leader says that Grover Cleveland i is a "copperhead," that he sent a "substi| tute" to represent him in the army. Very ! well, but it fails to state that two of Cleve! land's .brothers went into the army, that I he remained at home to support his mother ; and the families of his brothers. He also i furnished a substitute and paid for him out i of his own money. The Leader supported | Blaine for President. He staid at home ! and made money out of the war. He put ; in a substitute; that substitute deserted and Blaine recovered from the 3;aine Legisla; ture the money he had paid his cowardly j representative. One of the Leader editors j went to Europe to avoid the draft: had his j teeth pulled out so he could swear he could ! not bite cartridges and the "warriors" now j on the Leader editorial force were all en; joying fat offices, drawing big pay and | taking precious good care that they never i would get near any "battle fiags."?Clevej land Plain Deater. Railway receiverships come high, although they are a very common luxury. The Master in Chancery, to whom ! was referred the matter of compensation due the receivers and counsel of the I Wabash, St. Louis and Pacific Eailroad, j recommends the following allowances: I Thomas E. Tutt and Solon Humphreys reccive each ?112,500?$225,000; the | attorney for receivers, assisting the Gen! eral Solicitor, $7,500; another attorney, I $7,500; Farmers' Loan and Trust Comj pany, as trustee, $2,500; a firm of lawyers, $5,500; another firm of lawyers, $3,500. Other solicitors and trustees were pjid an aggregate of $60,000 more. This makes a grand total for receivers j and lawyers of $311,500. It is not probj able that in auy private business such I extravagant expenditures would be toleri ated, but when a railway gets into tha J hands of a court it is too often consiai ered legitimate picking by the lawyers, ! and the courts and their officers seldom I hurt the feelings of the profession by in! timating that the charges for legal ser: vices are too high. ise grasd juey at .Denver, uoxoraao, i has recently found indictments against the sheriff and four of his deputies for malfeasance in office. The charges upon' which the indictments are based show a systematic scheme of plunder that reminds us of the Tweed methods in New York. Bills for services never rendered, | bills fictitious in nature, illegal in character and false as to fact -were presented to the County Commissioners, sworn to by ihe sheriff or his deputies and paid out of the county treasury. Bills for guards who never guarded anything and never got a cent of money were presented and paid by the Commissioners. Biils for service as bailiffs in court when no court was in session and bills for a hundred other things for which no service was rendered seem to have been sworn to, presented and collected by these indicted officials. It is evident that the wild TVest does not intend to get left by the cifete East in the matter of munici pal corruption. We accidentally overheard ihe following dialogue on the street yesterday. Jo:;t>?Smith, why don't you stop that j disgusting hawking and spittin?? Suiiii:- -How can Iv You know I am a martyr to catarrh. J.?Do as I did. I had the disease in its worst form but I am well now.

Mrs. Bascom says she does not see what they want to make so much fuss about whether prominent Americans have coats- , of-arms or not. She says if it was coats without arms it would be something to talk about. BRIC-A-BRAC. ' " 'Tis love, niteen," she shyly called, And lightly swung tbe tenuis bat? j; I had forgot the count, enthralled By witching face beneath her hat, By girlish face and graceful mien, "Twas love, fifteen."

' Nothing should appear at a cold collation which requires carving or cannot be easily helped. The choice of a wife or husband is the j most serious thing that a man or woman : has to decide upon.

"Those who use our goods are very much i attached to tlvm." is what a porous com-! pany advertises. JIany men are said to make fools of themselves "when Nature is really the responsible party. A man in London who does not talk jubilee is suspected of having pockets full of dynamite. A business operated at a loss is like an empty pocketbook, as, to use .a common expression, "there's no money in it." Every sewing machine agent will positively assert that the machine he sells is the best. That doesn't make it sew, however. The cunning thief will enter a stable, purloin several sets of harness, and depart without leaving a trace. Speaking of drinking it may be observed that the man who "can take it or leave it alone" generally takes it. Reverend Alfred Coffee is the name of a Southern colored preacher. It is to be hoped he is a settled minister. There is one comiort at least ior me man who marries a red beaded wife. Ke can always look upon the bright side of life. A Connecticut baby has swallowed seven hairpins and come up to the mark smiling. He wants to try a thimble now. "Don't you dawnse. Fred?'' "Xo, dear boy: I'm invited out for my facial expression.'" Do cot starch your table napkins. A napkin that is not soft and pliable is manifestly unfit for its purpose. Marriage is the mother of the world. It ; preserves kingdoms and fiPs cities and churches, and Heaven itself. At a picnic never u:e your best plate, glass or china; so shali you avoid much heart-burning and irritation of temper. Absence makes the heart of host and gue^t grow fonder; they relish one another all the better for an interval of separation There is said to be, ftuirma ---rt-nTcir, wneh touched, Knocks a man down.

When two dogs quarrel too long over the same bone a third dog is apt to come bj' and cotton to it as bis own. "If you want tew git ct the circumference cf a man examine him among folks; but if you want tew git at his aktual diameter measure him at his fireside." "American women," says Jennie June, "stand at the head for health, complexion, taste and good temper." Who ever doubted it? When a woman is very pretty one never looks at her dress; and when the dress is very striking one forgets to look at the woman. There can be no surer proof of low origin, or of an innate meanness of disposition. than to be always talking and thinking of being genteel. '\Now, children," said a country mother who was going out, "be real good while I'm away, and be sure you don't go near the churn where I hid them nut-cakes." There is always a fair demand for the best products of the soil, and when they are obtained by skilfull management there is also a fair margin of profit.

When we have turned 40 we regard it as a weariness and a delusion, and denounce it, perhaps, as fit only for fools. "Yes." said the small boy of the Latin class, "yes, lapsus may be the Latin for slip in a'book, but when mother laps us it means a slipper." A German statistician has discovered that there are one million blind persons in the world, not counting, of course, those in love. An authority on such matters says that a woman may take a man's hand, but must not shake it. If she must shake something she can shake the man.

A green one ' would be equally conspicuous, and would in many cases more fitly symbolize their patrons. "Why, Allie. dear, is that the way to begin your dinner?" asked the mother of her little daughter, as she began with pie instead of the potatoes and gravy.

In this light Craig Tolliver, the desperaj do who lorded it over that section, was i killed. It is said that a large party of : men, ostensibly led by Dr. Logan, whose j I two sons were'murdered in cold blood 1 by the Tolliver men about two weeks j ago, and who was in jail in this city at ! the time of the tragedy, had organized a j i band of regulators for the purpose of | ridding the county of the desperadoes. ! The rumors of this band being in the neighborhood of Morehead have been | frequent. This morning, a little after - nine o:clock, the regulators "being con- j ceaiea m close proximity xo i>?oreneaa, ; opened fire 011 Tolliver and some of his gang who were on the streets. Tolliver was killed in the engagement, and the | fight assumed a bushwhacking character, J i.men hiding behind houses and trees and ! shooting at any one that could be seen. Eeports differ as to the number killed; i one placing the number at five, includ; ing Tolliver, and another stating that : Craig Tolliver, two of his brothers and 1 thirteen others had been killed. There ; is great confusion in the telegraphic re; ports coming, and accurate news is out j of the question. ! Louisville, Ex., June 23.?A special' j rfom the Courier-Journal correspondent, : who left last night for Eowan county, corroborates the story of the killing of j the three Tollivers and Harvey Cooper, i Sheriff Hogg's posse had warrants for ! the arrest of the men, and they were j supplied with arms and ammunition by j Governor Knott. Force was only resorted to after the desperadoes had refused to submit to arrest. Budd and Jay Tolliver were cousins, not brothers, ; of Craig Tolliver. Andy Tolliver, anoth! er of Craig's cousins, escaped; ho was ! slightly -wounded. ^ . pp A Few Old Statutes. In 1723 Maryland passed a law against ! Sabbatli breakers, providing that men ! "should noi; labor or profane the day by gaming, fishing, hunting or other unlawful pastimes or recreations, under fine of 200 pounds of tobacco." This law was unrepealed when the District of Columbia was ceded to the United States, has never been repealed by Congress, and is, therefore, it is said, a law in the national capital. The Maryland law against blasphemy, still extant, provides as a punishment that the offender shall be, for the first offense, bored through the tongue with a hot iron and fined ?20. For a second offense he shall be burned upon the forehead with the letter "B." and fined $40.

By a law which may possibly still be upon the statute books absence from church without valid excuse was punished by a fine of one pound of tobacco. An absence of one month wa? punishable by a fine of fifty pounds of tobacco. An act was also passed in that State providing for the punishment of "babbling women" by three ducks in the horse pond on a ducking chair or stool, and funds were appropriated for making the chair. The Massachusetts Legislature passed a law providiog that "men shall not wear their hair like women nor their own or others made into periwigs. Women are forbidden the wearing of borders of hair bangs, cutting, curling or immodest laying out of their hair. Grand juries are authorized to present the offenders and county courts to proceed against them, a fine to be imposed by the court." Cream Cake.

The Sumter Cotton Mills contemplate i building a fire-proof wareh ouse 40x100 fcc-t. j In a Battle-Panorama Studio. The central platform is, of course, the ; standpoint from which visitors will view j the panorama,?and therefore tbe artists \ are obliged to go to it frequently, as the painting ncars completion, m order tc observe the effect and progress of their work. This, too, is the place of conference, and despite the signs of -'No Admittance," within and without, visitors are frequent, and usually welcome. These visitors are often veteran soldiers who took part in the action represented, and j who often make helpful suggestions. The army stories that are told on the j central platform, would, if collected, i make a prodigious volume. The .floor j of the platform is chalked and rechaik- j ed, some referring to - the panorama it- j self, but more to illustrate occurretces upon other fields. The strong pine rail surrounding the platform is pencilled all over with kindred decorations, while scraps of paper, upon which are memo- ' randa of incidents, and a variety of data, j aa well as names and addresses, are I pinned to the convenient timber with } thumb-tacks. The artist paints steadily, every icdi- : vidual being mainly occupied in perfect- j ing his own work, though never hesitat- J ing to ask or extend aid'in some special j direction. One artist, for instance, has ! an excellent figure of a mounted officer, i all complete excepting the portrait, ! . * : : j I a pnoiograpn ior wmuu is piuucu iu mc i canvas. While this artist goes to ! strengthen a line of battle, another ; one will rapidly paint an admirable portrait for the incomplete figure. Soon, : another brush is busy with the horse, : while another artist calls for some spec-1 ial'saddle and bridlp to be brought to ' the platform that he may paint the trap- j pings. 2sow, look at the back of the photo- i graph which is pinned to the canvas? j a faded carte de visite of a young officer, j upon a slip of paper we read the follow- i ing: "Col. K., now on General Sheri dan's staff, H 47" (meaning section H, j square 47 of the panorama); "French ; cap, blouse, captain's straps?staff? i dark-blue trousers, gold cord, cavalry I boots, staff sword, McClellan saddle;' shabrack?black horse: see sketch." This instance will give an idea of the ! way in which facts are preserved when 1 a nnnorama is painted by artists who I conscientiously strive to make of the i work a great historical painting.?Theo-j dore R. Davis in St. Nicholas. Tricks of tho "Perfesh." ' There are more plans for 'faking' entrance to a theater than you would imagine," said the general treasurer of a Chicago theater. Sometiiqps we have live or six iu one evening. A few nights I ago a very tough-looking individual ! came up to the box window and, with a hitch of his coat and pushing his Iiat I back on his head, inquired: 'Say, der j yerpass deperfesh?' *Oh, yes,' I replied; ! 'any recognized member of the profession j can get a seat without charge. 'Well. j I want ter see de show. I'm a regular j member of de business,' was the next remark. "What is your line, and to what ; company do you belong?' I asked. 'Oh, I don't belong to no company. I'm a ; song-and-dancc bioke, I am,' said the j applicant, and to prove his assertion he j threw back the lapels of his coat, gave i his trousers a jerk, and, stepping back i a little, began to give an exhibition of I fancy olog-steps. I have no doubt that he was some variety showmau. One of , luc buaufjWL grouriua iipou wuicn x \ ever heard an application for admission j baaed was presented last week. It was j eome time after the curtain had risen, j and there was no one in the entrance. ' when a thinly clad, dirty-looking fellow j lounged up to the window a'Avl began in j the professional beggar sing-song tone i to enumerate his woes. I, of course, 1 supposed he wanted money, and you ! can imagine my surprise when he finish- i eel by saying: 'I haven't hain't had ! nuthin to eat all day, sir, and I'm tired, I so I thought I'd iike ter see the show if t you'll give me a tickct' "I could not see the connection be j tween hunger and a desire to see the j play. "An incident occurred the other t afternoon while I was in the box that | seems almost too ludicrous to be true, j A couple of very gawky-lookins coun- j trymen came into the lobby and" began j to examine very minutely the stand of j photographs, especially the picture re* 11 presenting ftobson and Crane as the j two Dromios. They seemed quite in- j ; terested, and, although I could not : hear the conversation, I could sec plain- ! ly that they were engaged in warm J argument.

One of them approached the window and after some j preliminary coughs and stammerings said, jerking his thumb over his shoulder toward the pictures: 'Beast them ' r there pictures the kind of clothes Abe. j Lincoln wore, and wasn't them the i pictures when he was president?' I was .
