FIFTH STREET.
Meeting of Property owners for
Widening PURPOSES.

VI hOI
Widening Purposes.
A poorly attended but enthusiastic
meeting of owners OF property fronting
on Fifth strtrt, from Main to San Pedro
streets, was held at the corner OF Fifth
and Regent streets last night. The OBJ
ject OF the meeting was to obtain the
sense OF holders, as to how the
five feet additional, on each
side OF Fifth street, taken from
private property, for the purpose OF
widening that thoroughfare should be
divided. 1t was agreed by majority Of
owners present that two feet of the five
on each side Of the street should be de-
voted to sidewalks, thus making walk
twelve feet in width. The remaining
three feet will be added to the roadway,
making the street seventy feet wide in
stead Of fifty-four feet.
1t was announced that all owners on
the south side OF the street had already
moved their fences or houses back five
feet, and that those holding on the north
side were rapidly falling in line with the
movement. The only parties who have
not as yet announced their intention to
move back were named as Messrs. Chas.
Charnock and Avis, owners OF the north
east and southeast corners OF Main and
Fifth streets. 1t was hoped these gentle
men would coon take steps toward moving
back the Improvements on their property.
Great confidence in the future of Fifth
street as commercial thoroughfare was
expressed by all holders present, among
whom were County Clerk Dunsmoor,
Officer Fletcher, ex-Chief Davis, ]. J.
Donovan and Messrs. Galley, Hughes,
Darrell and Wilson.

1t is somewhat remarkable that the
only dsfect which the Republican party
can find in ihe Democratic nominee for
Nice-Psesident is that he is seventy y-five
yeais OF age. Sometimes this is fault
and sometimes it is not. 1t depends alto
Eether upon the Individual. The old
xdage ran that the good die young, but
there have been number OF striking ex-
ccPtions to this aphorism. In fact, they
have been SO numerous that they rather
inyalidate than prove it. Gregory the
Great, the most illustrious OF the Roman
Pontiiis, WIS elected Pope when he was
rem years older than Thurman. Dandolo
proved to be the greatest of the Venetian
Gogas when he was much older than

given here some weeks ago, have ex-
pressed their regret at their inability to

Misses Saliie Hunnicut, Ilah Dunlap, and
Minnie Beard, were each reuderedvery cred

Miss Lille Clark, with Orchestra acnompa-

Samson and "Christus' Chcruses, with
some lis voices and instruments composing
them, were very pretty indeed. The piano
music was plessingly given, especially so
was the piece rendered by little Miss Selma

The Mechanic VIII Vote for 1t.

The Mechanic VIII Vote for 1t.
| The building of the Roanoke g. Southern
J Railroad means a great deal for Winston
i Salem in more ways than one and the labor
ing men are aware OF this fact During the
past week our reporter has conversed with a
number of mechanics upon the sui ject of
voting for the subscription and was pleased
to find but little, if any, opposition. Each
one seemed snthused over the matter and
one said:
81 am willing to lend helping hand to
anything that will advance the interests of
the towns and give the working class en-
ployment, and I do believe with more rail
road facilities we wall be greatly benefited.
We have been in need of something of this
kind for several years, and think the Ro-
anoke & Southern is the best road I know of
now for US to get. What the mechanic has
heretofore objected t. was the tax on the
bonds, but now they see the milk in the
cocoanut' and are aware that railroads will
be beneficial to them as we'll as the monied
men"
"Do you think these men will come to the
pOllS Oil TIE udy Vi cicCtlOIl anu VOLc LOT the
issuing of bonds for this line of road, asked
the reporter!"
81 certainly do,' said the mechanic 81
think you can put it down and with a safety
too, that there will be but very few, if
any, mechanics who will not vote for the
subscription, for it is matter of personal
interest and unless they aid such measures
it means that they must seek employment
elsewhere. | notice Durham not long since
voted subscriptions for railroads to the
amount of $250,O00 or more, and if Wins
ton-Salem couldn't go 100000 l think it
would be pretty bad showing for our towns,
which nave heretofore been known as live
and progressive"
The above, coming from a representative
mechanic, we consider good news and The
SENTINEL does hope that every voter in
the township will consider it matter of
his own interest and cast his vote in
favor of this road, which will result in
their own good and in the upbuilling OF the
Twin City.

A Remarkable Lady.

1t is said that there is an old lady living
in the northern part of Stokes county, aged
about seventy years, who never saw a rail-
road, a cook stove, a sewing machine, or
an organ. She has been on the public
road but once in ten years she lives within
one-fourth of a mile of her brother-in-law,
and has visited him but once in four
years, has not visited her brothers and sis
tiers, who live Dat a sholt distance away, in
twenty-five years. She does not employ a
cook, or wash-woman, spins and weaves, and
makes her own clothing, besides doing the
work for family of four, and thinks there
is no place like home

Ho! for the street Railway.

Judging from present indications, street
railway for Winston-Salem is now a certain
ty. Judge John NJ. White, of Charlottes-
vile, Va, who was here few months since
in the interest of the above enterprise, is in
the city again, and has secured t%right- Of
way for a street railway. Mr.. White has
entered into a contract with the County
Commissioners for the line, which will be
first run from DR.. V. o. Thompson's resi-
dence, on Liberty Street, to the Courthouse
Square, across to Main Street, thence down
Main to the old Butner Hotel The work
we are told, is to be completed within ninety
days after March LIST. Such news we consider
glad tidings for our people and THE SEN
TINEL halls the coming OF street railway
with great joy.

During the past summer, colored man
while blowing upon the lands of Mr.. L. 1.
Hine, near Old Town, unearthed an axe
about twelve inches in length which was a
source of some curiosity. Upon examina-
ton, it 7as found to have been made by a
firm il Europe some 100 years ago, and is
supposed to haze been lost by some of the
early settlers in this country. 1t was the
intention of NJ. Hine to place it On exhibit

his wagon and since that time it has been
the misfortune Of Mr.. II. to neither see ne

nothing has as yet been definite
ly learned. We noticed in a Durham pa
per that his date was cancelled there, occa-
stoned by being called to the bedside of his
warm friend and companion, Rev. Sam
Jones, at Washington. Mr.. SmalPs call to
Washington was doubtless the cause of his

Rich Coal and Iron Deposits,

Mr.. Fuel Fulton, of Bellows Creek, was in
the city this week and asked us to call at
tention to the deposits of coal and iron at
that place, on the survey of the Roanoke &
Southern Railroad. One of the ore beds
was leased in 1859 by northern capitalists
and a few loads of ore hauled away, but the
war coming on stopped work and since then
no further effort has been made to develop
them. Mr.. Robinson, lessee of the Walnut
Cove coal beds, once examined them and
pronounced them very valuable,-sa there
is plenty of ore of good quality. The beds
are in Forsyth county, near the Stokes line
The citizens of that township hope that the
directors of the road will consider their ad-
vantages and examine their ores before the
line is finally located.
