DEATH OF HON. r. E. REEVES.

[Specid Correspondence TO The Sentinel
This distinguished citizen of the
county of Surry closed his earthly
career at his home, on the 23:1 ult.,
in the county where he resided dur
ing the period Of his entire eventful
life. 1t will be remembered that sew
eral years ago he was stricken with
paralysis, from which he never re-
covered, either physically or mental
ly. Though not an entire wreck by
this fatal disease, he was yet so dis
abled as to be no longer useful to
himself, his family or his friends. He
suffered greatly on account of this
disability of mind and body, but
more poignantly because of the fact
that he could no longer be useful to
those he loved most-his wife and
children. A second stroke of the same
fatal malady ended his career, on the
evening of the 23d ult.
Much might be said of the influence
of this distinguished man as a leader
of the public mind, a legislator and
a private citizen, but this work will
be remembered by those who know
him best. In the private relations
of life, where most of his time was
spent, a truer and nobler friend the
man of poverty and want never met.
As long as he had a dollar to spare
he was ready to divide, and his home
was the hospitable resort of his
friends, whether rich or poor
No man, living or dead, in the
county of Surry, will be remembered
longer or more gratefully by his fell
low citizens. His race is run, his life
is ended. Peace to his ashes Nav
God protect and provide for his fami-
| ly that he loved so much!
A FRIEND.

A FLOOD or TOBACCO
Winston's Warehouses All Crowded to
the Utmost

The golden leaf poured into Wins
ton 10y the thousands of pounds this
week.
On Monday the breaks were large
and the uctioneers had to work
hard TO sell all that WAS offered.
On Tuesday they couldn't do it,.
All the tobacco on the floors of
Browns and Piedmont was sold, but
darkness canle on before the Farm
ers' could finish Yeste day they fin
ished selling all that was left Of Tues
days tobacco on Farmers floor, and
then the buyers went down to the big
Orinoco, which opened it's doors for
the first time.
Like the other warehouses, it's
floors were crowded. There W sn't
90 for loofe pile of tobac 0
the immense floor, and the camT-
yards and streets were blocked with
wagons.
Messrs. Watt and Webb were both
there in fine trim, and many of their
friends had come out to see their
opening sail. 1t was all that could
be wished.
Capt. Garland Webb has always
been a fayorite among both buyers
and planters and has always been a
fine auctioneer, but Yesterday his
face was wreathed and feathered over
with smiles and his voice fairly sang
as he cried the prices and rolled them
up for his patrons. There was a
magic in his tongue that sent prices
away up and kept them there till the
end of the break. His partner, Mr..
Watt, was thoroughly imbued with
the spirit Of the occasion and made
every pile show up for is full worth,
while their assistants worked in per-
feet form.
Altogether it was IL mammoth
break and n fine beginning for the
two gentlemen who are running the
Orinoco 1t doesn't require much of
a prophet to predict that such pop
ular and well trained warehouse men
will succeed.
The Oninoco is an excellently well
appointed warehouse. 1t not only
has very Ia ge floor room and the
best of lights, but it's camp rooms
would be hard to improve. They are
all of brick and each contains good
fireplace and plenty of comfortable
seats. Underneath it and in the lot
there are large, tight stables where
the farmers horses will not suffer
from cold.
The warehouse was closed two
years ago, TO the regret of many of
the farmers, but now that the new
and >enterprising management
has taken charge it will soon regain
all it's old friends and many new
ones.
The other three warehouses were
all crowded with tobacco yesterday
and another big installment of the
weed came in last night, SO that to-
day it is necessary to run double
sales.
THE SENTINEL man asked at least
half ii dozen buye..s how the prices
were. Some said '.stiff," others
'.high.'' All agreed that they had to
pay a good round price for every
pound they bought.
Then weiuterviewc,i the farmers and
we failed to find single man who
was dissatisfied They nearly all
said tobacco is selling WE'LL

We We're impressed with the guam
tity of bright leaf, which was more

ID. Lange of the Manhattan athletic club won 10
in 1856 and 1857. He is about 5 feet inches
tall. In 1885 q. ID. Baird was the winner He
was feet inches tall. The two previous years
z. p Murray WAS the victor. He was feet &
inches tall. The three-mile walk shows about
the same results, for Baird, Murray and LANCE
figure again as winners during the past half
dozen years. except the last one, when c. L.
Nieoil of the Manhattan athletic club was the
victor. Nicoll Is very different in build from
the other four mentioned champions for he is
feet tall in his low-heeled walking shoes.
In England the physiques are about the same,
for the men of short stature predominant in
numbers over the tall ones IN walking races
although in the professional ranks over there
there have been several excellent performers
who were tall.
SIGNIFICANT STATISTICS.
These statistics cannot fail TO be significant
and they tend to prove that endurance has
much more TO do with successful walker than
mere so-called speed, where the effort as in
running short sprint is merely a muscular
one. There is no way to show musular power
III walking as there Is IN running or jumping,
and the fact of its being such hard work in pro-
portion TO the amount of ground covered shows
that there must be some restriction on the mus
cles, and that the effort is being used in a need
less way, so far as getting over the ground
quickly is concerned Ii ID known to be easier
for an average athlete to run a mile in six min
Utes than to walk one in eight minutes. Any
athlete unaccustomed TO walking would have o
terrible time IN covering mile in the heel-and-
toe style in eight minutes, yet if he endeavored
to use a style which came easiest TO him to
cover the distance in the same time. a run OF a
jog trot would be no exertion at all. These
points have often made people think that
speed walking was an artificial and useless gait,
il being nothing more than a test of endurance,
and not ever being used by any one to cover .
long distance quickly. II is used as a means Of
getting exercise in the open air, but on these
occasions speed is not thought Of II a man
walks 80 miles throughout the country he
generally does it TO get fresh air. but it is safe
to say that most men having to travel dis
lance OF three or four miles quickly, there
being no conveyances at hand, would take .
slow run. for a heel-and-toe gait at any kind Of
speed would exhaust them before their journey
would be half over.
