Queen Mary Bernard, a young girl
who has been considered demented

gets up at night after having retired
and goes out on the street, so it is al

the police force of Roanoke and has
pointed out time and again what a
great improvement in I'll e apper rance

The board of police commissioners,
once their attention was called to the
matter, agreed with the views of the
TIMES and yeste day they gave con-
tract to Frank Brothers for a dozen
unims, for s:d To:k will be COLI
menced on them at olce There were
a number of bids and Messrs. Frank
Brothers were the lowest.
The Uniforms will be of blue flannel,
light, durable aid suitable for sum-
mer wear. They will be plentifully
supplied with brass buttons and will
be made in the long sack style. The
Officers will also be supplied with he'll

furthest Aleutian isle acquired in our
purchase of Russian America is as
far to the west Of that city as East
