President Harrison in Cleveland,

CLEVELAND, o., May President
Harrison arrived this afternoon. He re-
ceived salute of twenty-one guns. An
enormous crowd was at the depot and
followed the party through the streets TO
its destination. The enthusiasm was in.
tense, the shouting at times even drown
ing out the noise of the guns from the
men-of war firing the presidential salute.
The first person to greet President Harri-
son at the depot was eN President Hayes.
Tonight the President was rendered a
public reception at the Stillman House, a;
which there was an awful crush. The
city is gaily decorated from one end to the
other. The exercises at the Garfield
memorial begins at three o'clock to NOR
row.

A Des Moines Robbery.

DEs MONIES, Ia, May 28.-Prof.
Lawrence A. Southwick, the most promi-
nent artist in Des Moines, was stabbed in
his bed last night and robbed of from $500
TO 1900, which was in his trunk in his
sleeping room.
The wounded man was discovered by
one Of his pupils, Miss Kate Frederick,
about l0:30 O'Clock this morning. She
summoned two physicians who found
the wounded man lying unconscious in a
pool Of blood upon the floor. Blood was
upon his face, hands and legs, and his
night dress was dyed all over with deep
red. Ohe inch above the left nipple they
found cash in the flesh where he had
been stabbed. The wound was almost
concealed by clotted blood, which also
covered other parts Of his chest. The
flow Of blood, which must have been very
great, had ceased. The mammary artery
had been severed by the assassin's knife
which had made a cut two inches in depth
and had struck a rib.
The trunk in the room had been forced
open and papers and books scattered over
the room. There was also further evidence
of struggle, for there were foot-marks
on the carpet in the room and q footprint
In the pool Of blood on the floor, and these
marks were also traced out into the hall.
The wounded man revived this evening
sufficiently to briefly recount his expert
ence.
He was awakened by man in his room
in the act Of striking match and raised
up in bed. This caused the burglar 20 as
sault him and he was knocked unconscious
with what he believed was sand-bag.
Afterwards he recovered sufficiently to
get up and wander into the hall, down the
first fight Of stairs and back TO his room
where he fell unconscious upon the floor.
The wounded man did not recognize his as
sailant and the police have no clue. The
doctors think the wound may not prove
fatal, the great loss of blood being the
dangerous feature of the case.

TIE GaonsoUs FOURTH.

In the news columns Of the TIMES
tbs morning, will be found descrip-
ton ofhow the Fourth of July will be
celebrated in this city and its vicinity.
The day promises to be generally OBJ
served in Roanoke as it should be. 1t
is the day ofall others that Americans
81 ould observe with rejoicing, and 1t is
veil that the South is adopting the
idsa. Independence day has never
tsSen very high rank as a holiday in
tbs South. 1t has always been essen
t lily a Northern holiday, and there it is
celebrated just as we celebrate Christ
mas and New Years here.
Il seems odd TO the visitor TO the
North to hear canuons boom, see
st .ect parades and flag raising, be pur-
sued by the deafening oyster-horn on
u Fourth. Just as odd as tits to the
Northern visitor here, to see and hear
th.se things on Christmas in the South.
It's an interesting sign of the times
t. see the custom of observing the
Fourth coming into vogue here. Ten
.ye srs ago it was not thought of, and
eYen now it smacks of transplanted
custom 10 the old Southerner. But it
serves 10 show that the two sections
are being daily knitBcloser together,

gyIRGINIA BEACH, VIRGINIA.

The Ocean Shore Park Hotel, Vir
GINA Beach, in Princess Anne county,
Virginia, at the ocean terminus of the
Norfolk andVirginia Beach Railroad
offers to the public a lor g-felt want.
1t is an ocean shore resort within
the means of all. The hotel is new,
being it's first season, with first class
table, large, airy rooms, andgnewly
furnished throughout.
THE BATHING. The surf bath
ing is unsurpassed by any upon the
Atlantic coast. The absence of any
undertow being a marked feature.
The temperature of the water is
warmer, and the bathing more pro-
longed than on the New Jersey, or
Long Island Coast.
HEALTH RESORT. AS health
resort, it has been pronounced as COM
pared with Atlantic City and Fort
ress Monroe, to have many superior
natural advantages, both winter and
summer.
ADJUSTMENTS. Surf and still
water bathing, Grabbing, Bowling,
Tennis, Horse back and Switch-back
riding may be INDUCED in. Music

A RANK FAILURE,

Complaints are frequent that the
postal service is not what it ought TO
be. The LYnchburg Virginian wants
to know why this is. 1t seems to us
that the expert employees ofthe depart
ment could spend their time better IN
attending to their duties rather than in
fading out whether the wives of post
masters are attending to their duties
or whether the postmaster himself is
playing poker after business hours.
WANAaAKER makes very good mer-
chant, but as g Postmaster General he
is a rank failure.
