Death ofa Popular Young Man.

The death of Mr.. Lewis B. Clingen
peel Sunday night was great shock
to his wide circle of friends
and acquaintance in the city. He
had been i'll for some time with fever,
and his life was almost despaired of
several days before the end came.
he was a clerk in the Norfolk and
Western Offices, and was a bright, ac-
tive and promising youth. He was
u sou of Mr. James and Mrs. Eliza
Clingenpeel, and resided with his
parents on Second avenue, n. W.
The interment took place in the
East Hill cemetery, at Salem, from
the Greene Memorial church. The
funeral rites were administered by
Rev w. G. Campbell, and the house
OF worship was crowded by parties
who cherished his memory, including
the Roanoke Light Infantry in
body. The parents and other near
and dear relatives of the deceased
have the sympathy of the entire com
munity in their terrible bereavement.

TWO MEN KILLED
AN EXCURSION TRAIN RUNS
INTO AN OPEN SWITCH.
NAMES OF KILLED AND INJURED
The Particulars of the Occurrence.
The Excursionists Delayed Several
Hours-Phystcians S summoned from
Lynchburg to Attend the Sufferers.

An excursion train from Richmond,
en- route to the Natural Bridge, ar
rived in this city early yesterday
morning, and number of the excur-
sionists stopped over in this city to
spend the day. The train was com
posed of three coaches and bag
gage car on its upward tip, bul when
it returned at night four empty
coaches were attached to it for some
point on the road.
The train left here for Richmond at
1920 o'clock, the happy Laughing
crowd on board having no thought or
warming that death would overtake
two persons, or that injury would be-
fall others. On sped the train, with
engineer w. B. Holt at the throttle
But alas, he will never again stand
upon the footboard Of Il locomotive.
He has received his last orders and
been suddenly summoned to report to
the Great Superintendent.
Shortly before the excursion reached
Gladstone, about twenty-eight miles
from here, freight train No ", had
been side-tracked to let the former
train pass. After the freight had
passed in on the siding, Conductor G.
G.. Withrow closed the switch and
called TO Brakeman Reynolds to lock
it. Reynolds not noticing that the
switch was closed, threw it back to its
former position, thus again opening
it for the side track.
The excursion train dashed into the
village, but instead of passing on the
main line, it plunged into the freight,
badly wrecking the locomotive, and
damaging the baggage car and two
coaches. The result was the follow
ing killed and wounded:

Stole Five Dollars.

An enterprising parsonage, who evil
IDENTIFY had little fear of the law or re-
gard for his or her soul, visited the
apartments of Mrs. Frank Normoyle
on Third avenue, n. e., late yester-
day evening and stole IS bill. Sin
gularly, the rogue failed to take any
of several valuable pieces of jewelry
which were in the bureau drawer.
A dark-skinned maiden, who is sup
posed to cook and not to steal for a
living, is suspected, and the police
feel pretty certain, from evidence In
their possession, that they will have
the right one when she is arraigned
before the proper tribunal tomorrow.

STOP PATCHING
AND GIVE US A GOOD SEWER
AGE SYSTEM
OPINIONS OF VARIOUS CITIZENS
One Advocates that n Public Meeting
be Held to Discuss thc Matter, An
other that the City BorrOw the
Honey and do Permanent Work.

The people in all parts of the city
are exercised over the sanitary ques
ton and urge that it is q matter Of
vast importance,I inasmuch as the
health of the place is involved,
The need of a more thorough sew
erage system is what is heard from
everyone, and n great many so so
far as to emphatically assert that
it is the duty of the council to borrow
the requisite amount Of funds if they
have not got it in the treasury.
In speaking of the matter to a
TIMES reporter yesterday, a promi-
nent citizen said:
'.Do think the city needs more at
tentlon sanitarily? Why, most as
suredlv. But here is the trouble.
Roanoke has been pegging away so
ing so little, that ii is time to put down
some sort of permanent Improvement
of this description. This will cost
money, and they say they can't
afford it. What's to be done? 1t
strikes me that it could readily be
borrowed, but they don't seem to be
taking any steps in that direction,
and, for all know, that may be i'm
practicable. | don't know as much
about the municipal government as
those in charge; but ! do know that
the city is sadly in need of additional
drainage, and that it is one of the
most important considerations before
our people.
Another gentleman said: "There is
law, am told, in the city ordin-
ances, forbidding parties to allow
waste water to run into q street when
it accumulates there and is liable TO
become unhealthy. Now, if waste
water runs from yard to the street
and accumulates, rain water will
necessarily run there also. 1t strikes
me that, however obedient one is to
that law, he will have to prove that
the mud-hole is composed or rain
water, or get fined. And the rain
water becomes as unwholesome as
any other kind. SO the only remedy
is to put III sewers, and that can't be
done too quickly, either. in MY opin-
ion, to insure the health of the place.
In speaking to another gentleman.
who is prominent property-holder,
he said:
THE best thing to do is to call Il
public meeting and discuss this mat
ter in public, and decide, if possible,
some plan of action 1t is of the
greatest Importance, and should not
be delayed"
Various parties were seen and talked
to on the subject, and while all were
in favor of doing something none
seemed to know what would be ex-
actly the best thing to do.
There are various mud holes and
frog ponds about the city which en-
danger health, and which should be
looked after at once. The foundation
of the opera house on Jetfer-
son street is half full of water, bear
ing all the colors of the rainbow, and
another accumulation of embryo
lnalidies may be found in the West
End, near the round house, only it
covers four times as much ground,
Still another may be seen by any one
who chooses to so down there and
look at it, on Norfolk avenue, near
the brewery. Trout run, opposite
and below the machine works, needs
cleaning out. and it would not be q
very difficult task to find 9th
ers in various localities.

The prcsbyter.,.n organ.

The work of putting up the large
and handsome organ recently re-
ceived at the Presbyterian church
was completed yesterday, and it
is now ready to furnish music. 1t
is just the right size to fill the build
ing with melodies, not too harsh, as
would probably be the case were it
larger. 1t was manufactured by the
NJ. P. Moller Organ company, of Rag-
erstown, Md, and cost $1,000.
It is six feet, six inches wide, five
feet deep and nine feet high, with
walnut casing. The 'front.' pipes are
beautifully decorated in gold and
colors and contains 274 pipes in all.
The instrument on the whole, is q
beautiful one, and makes delightful
music.
