“rfJL 0 f the city, and Bet-tie’s mother aud
and’the husband of Fannie
?>nmas deceased, all lived there with him.
S J r Thomas rented a room in Goddln’s hall,
this city, and took most of his meala at
SL Fxcbange hotel, but he had a room in

Si- For twenty years Bettie Thomas

Kaeton for her own pleasure. During the
summers Mr. Thomas use<l to visit Sara
toga tskine with him his daughter and her
companion, Fannie Coles. '1 he three ate at
Se same table, and Bettie was known there
ns Mr. Thomas’ daughter.
A sliort time before he died Mr. Thomas
sold his farm and bought a lot and built a
bouse nearer the city. Here he took Bettie
to hve with him. He frequently told her
snd others that he intended the house for
her and proposed to deed it to her. He was
soon taken sick, however, and never gave
his da .gntcr a deed to the property. Mr.
Thomas died early in January, ISS9, and

nravßus to his death, and bis daughter
nursed and cared for him very tenderly. It
was while on his deathbed that Mr. Thomas
gave Bettie the bank book, in which was
ant-red the amount of his deposits in the
Planters National Bank. The daughter
fsrs that the book was given to her
with the purpose of giving her the money.
She says that while on his deathbed and in
his right mind her father gave her several
negotiable notes which were due, the key to
the safety deposit box rented by him in tho
Planters’ National Bank, and the key to the
tin box iu the safety deposit box, explain
ing to her that there she would find hi3
most valuable papers, evidences of debt,
stock, securities, etc., which constituted the
bulk of his estate, also the keys to the iron
safe at the office of Drewry & Cos., which
contained some papers aud personal prop
* kverything that Bettie claimed regarding
the relationship that existed between her
self and Mr. Thomas was substantiated by
affidavits from some of the most prominent
citizens of Richmond, among them Dr.
Hunter McGuire, Mr. Thomas’s physician.
These persons knew that Mr. Thomas was
very fond of his daughter, had often said
she was the only person in the world to
whom he was under any obligations, and
frequently said he intended to leave her his
estate. Mr. Thomas had no relations nearer
than first cousins, aud he never had any
thing to do with them. He had a very lim
ited acquaintance with the citizens of
Richmond. He never had any one to call
upon him in a social way, but some few well
known persons used to go to see him on
business.
The most prominent lawyers in Virginia
were counsel on either side. Judge Leake
decides that by gift donatio mortis causa
Bettie Lewis is entitled to all of Mr. Thomas’
estate, with the exception of hig bank de
posits, amounting to SIB,OCT Thomas,
wnile on his deathbed, gave his daughter
his bank book, and she contended that he
intended for her to have the money repre

I. decides that the delivery of the bank
boos was not sufficient delivery of the bank
deposits. An appeal to the supremo court
will be taken.
VOUCHED FOR BY THE PREACHER.
A Phenomenon Essy to See Through,
Yet Difficult to Explain.
From the St. Louis Republic.
Princeton, Ky., Dec. 19.—One of tho
s’rangest of phenomena occurred here this
week. The facts are vouched for by the
Rev. B. D. Clark of the Princeton Baptist
church.
Late on the afternoon of Dec. 12, a section
of perfectly clear water was discovered
floating down the Tradewater river, a small
stream flowing along the northern border
of Caldwell county. Bot . above and below
t-ii!section the water in the river was very
Muddy, while in the clear section the river
bottom could be easily seen. It was ob
served that fish were collecting in great
numbers in the clear water. The water
passed with the current slowly down tho
nvor until it neared the water mill run by
o. Hunter. The muddy water below grad
ual, y flowed over tbe dam, and the section
,5 c ' ear water, now in close proximity to
sue aam, was fairly alive with Ash, such as
jrcut, perch, salmon and cat ranging in size
from ten pounds down.
The strange affair soon became known
roughout the neiguborhood, and over 100
parsons assembled on Saturday evening and
nniiday morning to see it. A number of the
young men and boys killed several fish wi;h
jugs, but the water was so deep that their
Access was not very great, But Hunter,

Witty Speeches of Brunswick's Little
Boys and Girls.
From the Brunswick (Ga.) Times.
A little Brunswick girl, about 3 years old.
said to her father the other day: “Papa, I
want a skyrocket.” “And what do you
want with a skyrocketf” said the father.
Tbs little one replied: “I want to shoot a
bole iu the sky, so one of the angels can
oome down and play with me while mamma
is down town shopping.’’
A young man called on one of Bruns
wick’s prominent society y iuag ladies the
other afternoon to accompany har horse
back riding. A little sister was sent down
in tbe parlor to en ertain the young man
while her elder sister was getting ready.
“Mr. ,” she said, “I wish you would
oome around ever v day and take sister to
ridei Whenever she kno * s you are coming
she goes up stairs and just darns and darns,
and darns. She says she don’t know what’s
going to happen.”
A beautiful little black-eyed baby girl,
who could only lisp a few words, was for
bidden by her mother to eat a certain kind
of candy, of which she was vary fond, a
package of which was open in the side
board. A few hours afterward her mother
saw her cbewiug vigorously away on some
- which she strongly suspected to be
the forbidden candy. “What’s that you
have in your mouth, Lucy?’ exclaimed her
mother, catching the iittie one by her
cheeks. Luoy parted her Uds, ana, dis

IBfS Chinese Music.
From the January Century.
The musical art of a people who repre
sent oue-tiftn of the earth's population
ought to be studied; if not for the sake of
aesthetic ploasure, at lea-.t in the interest of
scientific knowledge. Yet there is scarcely
a depaitment in the history or philosophy
of music concerning which the information
to be found in the books is so unsatisfactory
as that of Chinese musio. Even a his orian
of the thoroughness and profundity of
Ambroa, after devoting many pages to an
attempt to elucidate the Chinese theory,
soems willing to believe the first traveler
who sets down the modern practice of the
art as nothing but crude, barbaric, unregu
lated noise. Crude, barbario and noisy
Chinese music certainly is, but not
unregulated. Even the little mu-ic
which can be heard on any holiday in tbe
Chinese quarter of New York will servo to
disclose to a discriminating ear that it is
nothing if not methodical. The difficulty
on the part of the historians has been that
they have never come in contact with the
Chinese, aud therefore have had to depend
on the descriptions of travelers and mission
aries touching the practical side of tbe art.
Correctly to apprehend musio, however,
requires special qualifications of education
and natural gifts, aud these have been pos
sessed by so small a minority of those who
have written about China that they are
scarcely worth enumerating.

A peculiar fact with refer
ence to Dr. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery is, that,
unlike sarsaparillas and
other blood medicines, which
are said to be good for the
blood in March, April and
May, the “ Discovery ” works
equally well all the year
round , and in all cases of
blood-taints or humors, no
matter what their name or
nature.
It’s the cheapest blood
purifier sold through drug
gists.
Why? Because it’s sold
on a peculiar plan , and you
only pay for the good you
get. Can you ask more ?
“ Golden Medical Discov
ery ” is a concentrated vege
table extract, put up in large
bottles; contains no alcohol
to inebriate, no syrup or
sugar to derange digestion;
is pleasant to the taste, and
equally good for adults or
children.
