Accounts, Hew Road, etc.
The County Commissioners met
Monday. They decided to cut, at an
early date, the Dew road from Provi- 1
dence church to Columbia', better
known as the Inside River road, by
ML D. Efird's, Samuel T. Loricks" mill.
Martia Sbull's, Robert Sean's and
Simon Hook's. They ordered the
BR necessary tax levy on property in the
three Fork townships to pay one
year's interest on the bonds of the
Colombia, Newberry and Lanreos
railroad. There being no money iij,
the treasury to pay Trial Justices and
Constables accounts the Board, to
^accommodate those who were pressed
fat money, approved their accounts
so that they could discount them.
Accounts so approved amount to
over one-half of the amount levied,
and which will be collected this fall,
for this purpose. -The Board will
not approve of any more sach
accounts until the end of the fiscal
# year, so that those who have not
presented accounts will cot be cut
out by exhausting the balance of the
levy in paying those "w?o have
already had accounts approved.

Winchest?, -[Vs., Angast 13?A
telephone message from Woodstock,
Va., says that United States Senator
Riddleberger^-^who was yesterday <
<entepced 6y Jadge Newman of the
County Couft to pay a' fine of $25
n and imprisonment for fire days for
contempt of .court, was released from
jail at night by a mob. The jailer
made but sKgTifc resistance.
The circumstances leading dp to
the arrest of Senator Kiddleberger
--- oo/iilln?a hr ara nlfnaiUAfi!
aiD iciatcu a^iuuonu uj ? .
Oa Thursday W. W. Jones was tried
for larceny, and the jury found that
he was ia^pe. Jones was a client of
Riddlebergei's, and the verdict made
. the Senator^ngry. He was accused
of writing ^placard and giving a boy
$2 to hanl Jones up and down the
town, tin latter displaying a
placard, p;eauwhile, which the latter
had written on it: "Verdict?Bill
Jones no* guil^ but insane. Jary
iosane; layers insane; conrt insane,
n fci^n.'W.
' TJJ!e tfoise occasioned by. this display
disturbed the proceedings of the *
conrt, ^Commonwealth's Attorney
J. C. Baker had the judge issue an
order for the arrest of Riddleberger
to appear before Judge Newman and
show cause why he (Riddleberger)
should not be fined and imprisoned
for ridicnling the judge and jury aDd
disturbing the court.
At 5 o'clock Riddleberger appeared
before the court and defended himself.
He said Judge Newman bad
no jurisdiction in the case, which the
judge denied and asked Senator
Riddleberger to sit down until the
evidence conld be taken to prove that
he (the Senator) was the one who
instigated the ridicule, and said the
conrt would then hear argument.
Riddleberger would not, sit down,
and the court fined him $25. He
then defied the court and said: "This
1
court shall not send me to jail."
Judge Newman told the sheriff 4o
take the Senator to jail for five days.
Senator Riddleberger said he would
like to see the man who could take
him to jail, and Sheriff Whitynan at
once arrested him and locked him up.
This caused much excitement, and
this morning at 2 o'clock a mob of
one hundred nien, supposed to be
from Edinourg, in this county, scaled
the walls oithe jail yard and took the
Senator or ion ladders.
Riddlehvfter is in the street at this
writing., .1
Winch: Va., August 15.?The
excitement over the imprisonment
and subsequent release of Senator
Riddlebergfer has subsided. Court
adjourned- on Friday until to-day.
The Senator voluntarily retarned to
jail this morning. All is quite, and
the court hss taken no further action
in the case.
Dr. E. C. Ridgall, who eDjoys an
enviable reputation as a most skilfull
dentest, has a card in this tissue,
which should be read by all who wish
