called at Mrs. Engard's and asked to.
see Mrs. Daingerfeld. She refused to

stairs and broke into three bed rooms
before he discovered Mrs. danger

He at once began to beat her in a
most brutal manner, blackening her
eye and bruising her severely. The

EAST TENNESSEE.
HOW Things are Being Rushed in the
Cumberland Plateau.

East Tennessee reminds the traveller
very much of the upper valley and
Southwest Virginia. New railroads
are branching out over the country,
towns are being laid out, and indus
tries established. One of the most i'm
portant of these towns is Johnson
City, which has population of about
5000, and reminds one very much of
Roanoke in 1885. At this place Hr. e.
II. Stewart, of Roanoke, has an inter
est in a large furniture factory. This
town has just voted, by an over
whelming majority, $25, 600 for schools,
and the same amount for streets.
Chattanooga has also just appropri-
ated SAT, 600 for schools, $50,770 for
streets, SIPS, 900 for sewers, $33, 600 for
fire department. and $4,000 for hos
pitfalls. These are good examples for
/ Roanoke to follow.
The Farmers Alliance in this State
is growing in power every day. They
Will elect the next governor, Colonel
Buchanan, who is at the head OF the
Alliance in Tennessee.
a State road congress is now in
session at Nashville. Nearly every
county in the State is represented by
delegates appointed by the county
courts. They will submit Il road law
for adoption throughout the State.
Under the present statue every man
outside Of incorporated towns is COM
PEELED to work the road from six to
twelve days every year, and yet the
roads of Tennessee are in very bad
condition.
The congress will submit Il law re-
quiring the roads to be kept up partly
by requiring every citizen. not other
wise exempt, to work two days in e:ch
year, and partly by taxation npon
real estate. The people are deter
Iuihed TO have better roads. Another
good example for Virginia to follow.
A corps of engineers are locating Il
railroad from Bristol to Knoxville.
They refuse to give any Information
as to their purpose, or their objective
point. They will not even tell who
sent them out. They are supposed to
be employed by the Norfolk and
Western Company. The people
greatly wish that this may be so, as
the Norfolk and Western is very pop
ular in Tennessee, and its en- rtnc
INFO this State will be hailed with
joy. The corps of engineers are now
at Rogersville.

which started, Potomac was the ia,
vorite at 81 to 1. The result of the
race was a popular one, as Potomac
carried most of the public's money
Five break Always were made before

still retained the lead with Rnssle

Potomac fourth, Washer fifth. Rus

half was reached and it looked as If
the fight would be between the two,
but weight began to tell on them both
and they were gradually overhauled
by Potomac. and in the stretch he led
by two lengths, Strathmeath second,
Washer third.
The race was now at the disposal of
Potomac, and the attention was cen
tered on the fight for the place. 1t
was bitter contest between Strath-
meath and Washer, it being so close
that it was difficult for the judg, to
decide who had the place. The YER
diet was finally given to Masher.
Potomac won easily by Two lengths.
Mr.. Belmont owns both Potomac and
Masher, so he wins both first and sec
ond money. Hampton rode Potomac
and Masber was ridden by Bergen.

a greater part Of Roanoke's popula-
ton is familiar with the appearance
Of the business centre Of this metro
polls of Southwest Virginia at all
times, but many readers OF THE
TIMES in and ont of the city would
have their eyes stretched with aston
ishment were they to peep around the
corner of Jefferson street and Salem
avenue any Saturday night between
and 10 o'clock. You have been TO
the opera when the greatest attrac-
ton of the season WAS produced, seen
the rush Of the crowded people for

after pressing your way to the street,
you have noticed TIE thron.s as they
gradually dispersed. One difference
in his and Roanoke street scenes on
Saturday night is that the crowds
don't disburse in n few minutes, but
constantly surge along the sidewalks
OF all the main streets, and press in

them.

shoppers, although there were no
more people out than usual for
the close OF the week.
a TIMkS reporter standing on Salem
avenue near jefferson, saw not less
than one hundred aud fifty plss on

The people often pass by III crowds so
large that-it il impossible to make an
accurate account, bur one can stand
on the corner OF jefferson street and
Salem avenue, and, within five min

is equally crowded, and on any If
them the pedestrian has to keep his
