SMALL BOY NEARLY DROWNED.
There was furry of excitement at Dyer's
mill dam in Knightyille Saturday afternoon.
when little Berry Mills. aged about six
years, who was playing on the dam, tumbled
headlong into the boiling sluiceway and was
rapidly borne away by the swift current By
the prompt action of Mr.. Mark Harmon,
aided by Mr.. Burt Melcher, who was passing
in his team, a skiff was launched and the
nearly drowned lad rescued and placed in
the arms of his frantic mother, who witnessed
the peril and rescue of her child.
Owing to the removal by the owner of the

..FAKHo NEWSPAPERS.

When the New York papers have no.
thing startling to write about they fake
story about the moonshin ers of the
Virginia mountains. Their latest
stake" is a story about two hundred
of this gentry who were reported as be-
ing fortified 10 gorge Of the mountains
and defying the revenue officers. The
correspondent didn't scruple to pile on
the agony and described the men "a
very beautifully equipped with Win
chesters and cannon. Now comes tho
Henry County Bulletin with the in
formation that there has never been q
cannon in Franklin, and the mountain
GERS wouldn't know how to use it if
they had one. The World seem to be
trying hard to build up great news
paper, but one LITTLE report like this is
enough to ruin the confidence of an en-
tire community in paper.

DishorninS Cattle.

The question of whether or not it is
cruel to dishorn COWS is before the
Scotch courts, the defense being that
it is necessary to cut off the horns of
Irish and Canadian cattle to keep
them from goring each other in the
feeding courts used in Scotland dur
ing the winter. One witness testified
that experience had converted him to
favor dishorning, and that he now
practices it with all his Guernsey
cows, who seem 10 suffer little pain
from the operation and the quality of
whose milk is not affected by it. The
English courts have held. that the
practice was a cruel one.-New York

..o,,r VIRGINIA RAILROADS.

Every business man in Virginia IS
interested in railroads, and the people
OF Roanoke are no exception to the
general rule. This being the case,
the report of Commissioner Hill just
received from Richmond, will get the
attention it deserves. There are also
some important and timely recon-
msndatiops. The report shows that
during the twelve months ended June
1889, I24.le miles of railroad were
were constructed in this state. The
total miles OF main lines and branches
is s,3S3.6s. In four years go miles
of railroad have been added TO the
mileage, aud the gross earnings have
increased from sl4,I42, 5sI.29 IN 1856
to 500, OO0. 600 in 1889. The commits
sioner recommends the appointment o.
a person who shall give his whole time
to tho examination OF the physical
condition froadways and rolling stock.
he also recommends that the eompa-
MES bs required to notify the commits
sioner Immediately when an accident
occurs; and further, that no company
should be allowed 10 charge greater
compensation for a shorter than a
longer distance without the permission
OF that officer, under such rules as may
be prescribed By law. He fayors also
the application OF the principles of the
interstate commerce law to business
within the state. 1t is probable that
during the present year considerable
work Will be done.

A Pet Eagle.

The crew of a steamship at San

young eagle which they caught Oh
Alaskan shores. It is perfectly con-
tented with its new home, and when
reporter went up the gangway to the
deck the bird, which is now only half
grown and about as large as a wild
goose, spied the arrival and went hop

1xraR CYCLONES WAKE.

TlS-sppalltns disaster which has
wrecked hundreds of once happy homes
and sent thrill of horror throughout
the country is second Only to that O..
Johnstown. Bat unlike Johnstown the
people were war ned by the signal SER
yice, but they did not heed and suffer
ed in consequence. So many Jokes
have been made at the expense of Gen
eral Greeley's valuable bureau that its
usefulness has been seriously impaired
and it HAS become quite the thing to
laugh at its predictions. There can bs
hardly a doubt, but what these jokes
ARE to q great extent responsible.
But the damage has been done now
and it bohooves the people of The
whole country to come forward, not
emily with their sympathy but witk
their money. In the wake of the ter
rible demon Of destruction, there is
bound to follow much suffering, and we
of Virginia should be ready
to render to our sister city
of the South all tho assist
anc. in our power. The people made
homeless by this dread disaster should
not want for anything, and every
little mite contributed will help to soften
thslr physical suffering. No human hand
can sooth those other and more acute
sorroHs Of the mind and on this bright
Sabbath morning they can only look
to, God.
