It was nnmwl In honor of the first po t- timsler , who was n Virginian , rclntes the San Francisco Chronicle. It Is nbo nn old pottonice U flourished wten lla nirtlls were received once a week by stage It was Urst made from n plannbox , then It nan en larged by n projection made to kcrp the rain off any who might arrive b2fore th stage. It hiis a general delivery , where one stands In front of a drop window. At the right and In the last board In the end of the building are ( He lock-boxen ; they am adorned with birn-door hinges nnd com mon padlocks. This postofllce was once the scene of a turrlble tragedy. During the gold excite In Mexico Sanultt Johnson hftd brought his > oung wife and baby to a tnnnll place about three miles from the Virginia postolHce. Carried away by the exciting re ports he left his wife and started for Mex ico. ico.She She was living alone nnd , of course , was very nnxlous to hear from her husband and would carry the baby to the postofllce when going thither , hoping she would receive a letter from him. One day something had delnjcd the stage. Wearied nlth her long walk she left her baby on a little shelf In front of the gen eral delivery and walked to the first turn of the road to see If the stage or post master were coming. On turning back , what was her surprise and horror at eeclng the child being berne off by a mountain lion. She fallowed the brute as far as she could sec It , then In de spair returned , found the postmaster , who got a few neighbors armed with guns and dog3 , followed the trail for three miles , when It was lost In the bed of n creek. Although for several succeeding days the country was searched , jot no further sign woe ever seen of child or Hon. For many a night afterward the post master put out frcth beef and stood at the general delivery window with a Winchester ride , In hopeJ the beast wouM return , but It uas In vain As for Mrs. Johnson , she could never bear the sight of that postofllce again. Her hus band returned to San Diego , where ehe joined him , nnd they left the country. N'ovr for the strange sequel. I was tell ing this strange story beside a campflre on Palomar mountain when Mr. Baldwin asked me what } car It was I could not give the exact date , only It was the year of the gold excitement. He told me that bis brother * In-law , J. Klnnlson , had been to San Diego that year and when about ten miles from Virginia postofQo found n girl baby-in tha road. There were no housca anywhere near , EO he took the girl home with him. He had never heard of the Virginia postofflce Inci dent. The girl he found has grown up nearly to womanhood and Is named Irene Klnnlson. As for Mrs. Johnson , no one knows 'where she is IB Miss Irene Klnnlson Miss Vir ginia Johnson ? About three weeks after the taking of th child Qua Helslg and the Westmoreland boys of Valley Center were hunting , when they came across and killed the largest mountain lion ever seen In southern Cali fornia. U might have been the same lion tllat carried off ( he child. Mr. Baldwin said Mr. Klnnlson found the child ten miles from any house that was Inhabited , so there W&B no one to whom Inquiries could bo made con cerning It. As for the mall carrier , the gold excitement caused the mail contractor lo flnd a new driver every few do > and he had disappeared. As for Virginia poatoftlco , Mrs. Johnson was soon gone and the story becama old and forgotten. IJIIIVT HIT nun Toosins. lloiv 11 HINT Oeoritln Politician Unvrlt- tliiKly Silted IH Own Life. Don Bain gova mo a new Toomba atory jeeterday , says a writer In the Atlanta Con stitution. I call It new becauio It has never been printed. One night , when the legislature wa In ics- sloli , the old Markbam house waa crowded with * statesmen and loungera. General Toombs was there. Something had gone wrong at the capltol and be wan road , As usual , he took no pains to conceal bis entl- ments. When Bain entered the hotel he found the general talking excitedly with a crowd around him. Toomba objected to something eald or done In the legislature and pro ceeded to "cues out" the whole body. The eloquent talker was perfectly reckless. Ha threw off brilliant epigrams , epllbeta and outbursts of profanity until be almott equaled a volcano In tlie force , fury and flra of his eruptions. The loungera ll tened and laughed. Thpy enjoyed It tremendously and looked nt the politicians to nee bovr they stood It , Among those present wan a member from a middle Georgia county. He yr& * a cl nt In stature , tall , broad-shouldered nnd muscu. far. Ho woa not In a good humor and Toomba Irritated him. Finally ho resented the general' remarks. "I'll be d U If I stand your talk my longer , " ho said. "You are too personal nnd If you repeat your fltaternents I'll hit you ! " This Interested the crowd , The legislator towered over everybody , ready to itrike tha general. Toomba , In Hi Is fearlees way , was about to eay something when several ot hit friends gently drew 'him ' into the elevator und took him to his room , "I was just about to bit him , " remarked the leglidator. Just then a very small , delicate-looking mau , with a pale face and mild blue eyes , walked up to tbo big politician. "Yes , " said the little man quietly , "I saw that you were about to hit him. That's why I came'up. " "I don't understand , " replied the other. "I got close to you , " continued the llttla man , "because I wus going to kill you If you struck General Toomba. I am fixed for It , and It you bad touched blm I would hav shot you through the heart ) " Baying this be tapped his hip pocket. The tall legislator in Borne contusion laid something apologetic and explanatory and remembered an engagement elsewhere. "That little man , " eald Bain In conclusion , "was Colonel John 8. Hart , ono of the bravest cavalry officers in the confederate service. > He waa afraid ot nothing , and he meant juit what ho Bald , lie would have killed that man It he had struck Toombs. " All weak places In your system effectually closed egolnst disease by DeWltt'i Little arly HUers. They cleanse the bowels , promptly cure chronic constipation , regulate the liver and nil you with new fife and \lcor. Small , pleasant , euro ; never grlo ,
