A Frightened Woman Jumps Through | a Glass Door. Workmen commenced to-day removing the brickwork prepara- tory to adding another story to the store building recently pur- chased by Mr. S. Mf.

Heis one of the most Zeal- ous members of that live, progres- sive Lodge, Covenant No. 17. He was appointed Grand Herald at the last session of the Gran Lodge which 1s his first office in the Grand Lodge.” Struck by Lightning. Dr. swcManaway was in Roa aoke, Va., befure going to Wash ington last week, and while there a young man, Mr. Joe Kasey, was struck by lightning while riding his bizycle. Mr. Kasey was out for a ride and seeing asmall! cloud coming up, he was hurrying home on his wheel when he was struck and instantly killed. This is the tirst case uf this kind on record. It is dangerous to ride a bicycle during a thunder storm as the steel of the wheel and the friction that is made in ridiug fast araw lightning.-—Charlotte Observer.

LOCAL NOTES AND TOBACCO JOTTINGS. BY O L. JOYNER. OLD VIRGINIA WRAPPERS. (ete The Danville.

Much siguificauce seems io be attached to the fact tha) oearly all old wrappers have beeu used up and that wrappers in fature will be in strong de mand.

Jobn Stow, in his “Chrsinicles of Eugiand,” states that “tobacco was first brought snd made kuown by Sir John Hawkins, ubout the year 1563, out not used by Euglisumen in many years after.” Nevertheless, he says elsewhere that “Sir Walter Ral eigh was the first that brought tohacce to use, when all men wondered what it meant.” Caley, ia his account of the last bonrs of Sir Walter Raleigh, proyes very conclusively that the smoking knight was not ashamed of the weed, which he used if he did not introduce. “He was very cheerful the morning he died,” says the historian, “ate his breakfast, and took tobacco, and made nv more of death than if he had been to take a journey.”— Uawrence Hutton, in Harpers Weekly.

The following is the personal experience of some men: “Sing a song of penitence, a fellow full of rye! four and twenty serpents dancing before his eye. When his eye was opened, he shouted for his life, waso’t he a_ pretty chump to go before his wifs? His het was in the parlor, under- neath the chair; his boots were in the hallway, his coat was on the stair. His trousers in the kitchen, his collar on the shelf, but he hadn’t any notion where — he was himself.
