A big six-wheeled Mogul engine of the Housatonic road was standing in the round house at Bridgeport. Satur- day morning, with steam up. For some unexplainable cause the engine started out of the roundhouse alone. No one was in it or near it. Under full head of steam the big locomotive plunged into the turn-table pit and was badly wrecked. A leaky valve is supposed to have caused the trouble.

The long delayed warm days, humid days, hot days, are here at last, and general discomfort is the rule.
 One thing to do about it is to have the feet properly clothed, for if the feet are cool the body will be cool also.
 Lay aside, therefore, all thick, heavy wear, get something low cut, thin, easy and soft, such as will soothe the pains and swelling in one extremity, while the wrinkles will be smoothed from the brow in the other.
 Russet Shoes will fill the bill for many purposes, Canvas for others, while Black and Patent Leather cannot be en- tirely dispensed with.
 But it should be borne in mind that ease and comfort cannot be fully ob- tained unless the Shoes are made on sci entitic principles, so they will exactly fit the foot, and not, as is too often the case, the foot is made to fit the shoe.
 Such goods, gotten up specially to meet these points, can be found in great variety at our Store, as an inspection will verify, and we will take great pleas ure in furnishing to all good founda- tion for keeping cool.

A Growing Sister.

Roanoke is n great place. The vitali-
ty OF it is wonderful and the growth
amazing. While other people are talk
ing they are working, In no other place
with which we are acquainted is a good
idea or worthy suggestion so quickly
seized or 80 rapidly materialized. Hotels,
railroads, manufactures, and all sorts OF
business drift that way. or il it does not
its energetic committees go out and lay
hold of it and bring it in.
The history of Roanoke tells what the
Virginians OF this generation are capable
of. True the city never would have been
what it is but for the Norfolk and
Western Railroad Company; but it IS
likewise true that the company never
would have been encouraged to pile in
there and thereabouts money upon
money had they not seen in the com
munity those evidences Of thrift and
progressiveness which gave assurance
that their investments would prosper.
The Dispatch wants to see every por-
ton of the Commonwealth increase IN
population and wealth and rejoices that
we have within our borders such a city
as Roanoke.

c;aed that the law as il was enrolled and
s;anad Inv the President was the only
osd the Court could have OF what
tha ;ntent Of Congress was. That would
undoubtedly be the decision In the pres
ont case"
Jtistbe duty OF tho Secretary OF State
20 certify the ratification Of all amend
ments 20 the Federal Constitution. Mr..
SEWARD. however, doubted whether some
Of the legislative bodies claiming to have
ratified one or more of the three last
amendments had the right to do so, and
he merely certified that they claimed to
have ratified them, andso left the matter.
Yet the validity ofoven those amendments
has never been questioned in the courts.
so West Virginia was undo ubtedly
erected into State in violation OF the
Federal Constitution. Nevertheless when
the Jefferson-and- Berkeley case was be-
fore the Supreme Court OF the United
States that tribunal assumed that that
State had been formed in pursuance OF
the method of erecting new States pre-
scribed in the Constitution of the United
States. If the question could be raised
in that court it would be almost COM
PEELED TO decide that West Virginia Is
still part of Virginia.
We conclude that the new law Will
stand, and that Congress will re-enact the
omitted section.

The Day Of Registration.

The duty of to-day is to register or get
your transfer, as may be necessary.
II you will be twenty-one years OF age
by the day of election you are entitled to
register to-day. II you have moved from
one voting precinct to another since you
last voted, you should obtain and record
your transfer to-day.
Only ten days remain before the mass
OF people OF the United States will be
called to the polls to determine whether
in their Judgment the House OF Repre-
sentativos should be controlled by Repub-
hcans OF Democrats.
The issue Is in short, whether the tariff
law and the proposed election, reappor-
tionment and redistricting bills shall be
approved.
SO far as the citizens Of Virginia are
concerned, We know what answer they
have framed and desire TO deliver but
il is essential first to have our voters
names properly enrolled
There is but one day for this work,
and that day is at hand We must shake
of all apathy and be sure that we put
our men in condition to vote on the
zth of November.
Against an enemy as willy and I'M
scrupulous as ours we can never be too
well prepared. In this district Mr..
WISE seems to have the field to himself,
but political appearances are often de-
ceitful. We can neither trust our eyes
nor ears We must proceed upon the
theory that on the morning OF the 4th at
all the precincts in the cities Of Rich
mond and Manchester the negroes will
be found in line voting for some force
bill advocate. We have had such sur
prises in the past, and may have them
again. AT any rate, the chairman of the
State Committeeman an excitable man
warns us TO be on our guard and have
every voter aroused and ready for
battle. We add our entreaty that the
Democrats of Richmond and Manches-
ter and OF all the other cities and coun-
ties OF the State will dismiss the conf
dence that breeds Indifference, and
earnestly proceed to work with the con-
yiction that they have before them a big
ger fight than they suspect.
SO register, if you are not already re-
gistered
II you have moved from one voting
precinct 10 another since the last cleo
ton get your transfer.
To-day affords the one opportunity.

a Part of Richmond.

The Richmond Dispatch last Sunday
celebrated its fortieth anniversary, and
has an interesting sketch of its early be-
ginning. The writer of this had per-
sonal pleasure in reading it, for he
knew a good deal about that early be-
ginning Richmond had nearly thirty
thousand inhabitants, but il was an up
hill business making the new daily stick.
We shall never forget the nerve
shown by the late James A.
Cowardin in that trying time.
Like all new daily papers the money
continued topour out month after month
and not dollar of profit came i'll. His
partner got frightened after spending a
good part of his fortune-for both of
the partners had what in that day were
comfortable little fortunes-and drew
out. The men III the office began to be
gloomy. Mr.. Cowardins private means
were we'll nigh-exhausted, but he never
fiinched. AT last, in some two years we
think, the money poured down the hole
had filled it, and the hill was turned,
and in 1861 the Dispatch was the best
paying newspaper property in the
South. It's revival after the war, for
it was burned at the evacuation of Rich
mond, required as much nerve as was re-
quired at its birth, but Mr.. Cowardin
and his new partner, Henry X. Ellyson,
a man very much like him, were equal
to the occasion and stood the financial
drain until the hill was again turned and
the DISPATCH made again the best pay
ing property of its kind in the South.
The DISPATCH is now as much part of
Richmond as its streets and stores are,
and will remain so forever. May its
prosperity never be less

Flkins's Blunder.

Mr.. STEPHEN b. ELKISs, who started
out to enlighten the West Virginia
voters on the tariff, has brought great
ridicule upon himself by saying
cat the session Of Congress just
closed the Republicans put tin on the
free list and advanced the duty on tin
plate"
The Tribune printed the speech from
Mr. E1KrN's own MS, and now all
the Democratic papers are calling atten-
ton to the blunder.
The New York Times Independent
Republican, says:
There is widespread impression that
tin was on the free list when the recent
session of Congress was opened, and
that it had been there for many, many
years. Mr.. Elkins appears to be the
only person who has the news about the
recent removal of the duty. Moreover,
there is an impression that "at the ses-
sion of Congress just closed the Repub-
licans" passed law providing that a
duty of four cents pound shall be i'm
posed on tin after July /, 1898, for the
protection of certain persons IN Dakota.
Indeed the official text of the bill tends
to confirm this impression. Mr.. Elkins
appears to have been misled by some
one.

The United Hills Viaduct.

A correspondent whose suggestions
are always valuable takes us to task
for calling the proposed bridge to
connect Church and Shockoe hills O via
duct He thinks Union bridge would
be far better.
A viaduct is "a structure OF consider
able magnitude. usually with arches or
supported on tresues for carrying a road
rs railroad, high above the ground or
water; a bridge especially one for
crossing valley or gorge"
II seems TO us that this definition
ffrom WEpsrER's international Diction-
ary) justifes the public in calling the
proposed structure a viaduct; at any
rate, that name seems well fixed now.
"Union viaduct.' or the United Hills
Visduct, will do very we'll as it will con-
vey the true ides--that of joining tho
two great hills Of Richmond.
Colonel WHrrooMB, in the interview
which We published yesterday morning,
favors the Marshall rather than tho
Brosd-stroet route. He urges the fact
that il Will be very difficult to get fonn-
dations for the piers on such parts Of
Broad street as have been filled in--that
Il to say, on all that portion from Seven
tenth street to jail alley.
The extension OF Broad street across

enterprises and the work was going OF

tory Of the work done in Kentucky in

story OF the work done in Kentucky in
the last eight years. A circular letter
was sent with this address trying to
awaken the interest OF individuals enough
to secure from them pledges for IS, 900
on the condition that the synod would
give an equal amount. A number OF
responses have come from loval and
libcral-hearted Presbyterians. so that we
are able to report that $1,000 has been
definitely pledged, and We have good
reason to hope that 900 more will be
soon.
We offer therefor the following resolu-
tions-viz.
/. That synod accepts with Joy the
gift, and pledges itself to raise at least
So, 600 for this work.
2. That committee be appointed to
apportion this amount TO the churches,
that it may be raised by special collec-
ton annually or the third Sabbath of
November. the money to be forwarded
to the Treasurer of the Home Mission
Committee in Atlanta, to be held sub
ject to the order OF the synod's commit
tee. For special reason none OF this
amount Is to be apportioned to Green
brier Presbytery. This collection is not
to supplant any Of those ordered by the
assembly.
3. That a committee be appointed,
consisting of five members, whose duty
it shall be to have a general oversight Of
the work, to secure the contributions, to
djsburse the same according to the de-
mands Of the presbyteries, as furnished
through its Home Mission Committee
That each presbytery direct and control
the work in its bounds, but that it act
through this committee so as to secure
unity, completeness, and the greatest
efficiency. Respectfully submitted,

Bartellot's Book on Stanley.

As ON adventurous explorer and capti-
waiting chronicler of his own achieve
ments, STANLEY seems to be entitled to
the fame he enjoys. But we cannot say
that we have been struck with his
modesty. Now we are told that he is an
envious man and little inclined to give
credit where credit is most due.
His last exploit was to rush into the
wilds OF Africa and save EMIs Pasha.
EMIS protested that he was in no danger
and did not wish to be saved, but STAN
LEY had come with large relief expe-
dition and gave EMIS to understand that
either he had to be saved or killed.
Thereupon the German scientist con-
sented to be saved, but ever since no has
been breathing hatred of STANLEY.
Now are published the "Diaries and
Letters OF Major BARTELLor. The
Major was the murdered commandant OF
SrANLEY's rear guard. and his journal
and correspondence have been edited by
his brother.
Charges of malignity, ingratitude,
misrepresentation, and desertion are
brought against STANLEY, and. accord
ing to our cablegrams, tho issue pre-
sented is whether the misfortunes OF the
rear column were due to the INDIGESTION
of Major BARTELLoT or whether STAN
LEY was primarily responsible.
II is conceded that the Major was a
man OF hasty temper, and it is doubted
II his utterances ever should have been
published, asthey do not appear to have
been so intended, but the London pub
lie now insist that STANLEY should an
swer the accusations
This he will be able to do, no doubt.
He is gifted with his pen. and as he was
able to relieve an explorer and ruler who
did not wish to be relieved, he will hard
ly have any difficulty in winning in a
controversy with dead man.

for years. Originally the ground pre-
sented very much the same Topographic
cal features as Marshall street does now.
Broad street was not only filed in from
Shockoe Hill to the creek, but was sloped
from Church Hill TO the creek, though
on account Of the necessity for an arch
way over Shockoe creek the more costly
work was the western part.
After all this expenditure Broad street
has never become the great thorough
fare that it should be. 1t seems to us
that viaduct is the only thing to draw
the two hills together commercially and
socially and make them united hills.
Union Hill used 10 be well-known
locality adjoining Church Hill on the
north, but the custom OF absorption and
monopoly has prevailed even here.
Church Hill is now commonly en-
ployed to designate all that great and
growing section of the city.
When it comes 10 choosing route.
why that is a question to be determined
by the engineers
Broad street presents many advan-
tages and the public desire is to have
that great thoroughfare q straight shoot
from Chimborazo Park to the EXPOSE
ton Grounds, but then the greater cost
of securing foundations for the pillars or
piers, the larger damage likely to be done
property, and the longer distance to be
bridged will be urged as an Offset Al
together the inexpert public may well
afford to leave this subject to the en-
gineers.
We are glad to observe that the via
duct scheme is no longer regarded as
visionary. When Messrs, CUTsHAw,
WmTcoMB, TALcorr, and BURGwYN say
that it is both desirable and practicable
a battalion of doubts disappear. Indeed,
nothing but the financial question stands
in the way Of immediate success. And
here we beg to repeat "where there is
will there is way"

Especial telegram TO the Dispstch-l

RALEIGH, N. G., October 24.-To-day
the Farmers Alliance took official action
regarding the congressional contest in the
Second district. Its State secretary,
E. G. Beddingfeld, sent out the follow
ing important letter to tho secretary OF
each sub-alliance in that district
Our brother, J. NJ. Mewborne, one
OF the Executive Committee OF the State
Alliance, is now candidate for Congress
in the Second district. Those persons
who were so much opposed to him be-
fore the Executive Committee met and
failed to nominate successor TO Rogers
are now pledging him their support.
As matters stand our only chance to get
n congressman in the Second district
who is favorable to the alliance is to
stand squsrely by Brother Mewborne.
HE CAN BE ELECTED.
"By a united effort he can be elected.
am persuaded that the good men out
side the alliance will do all they can for
him, and hope his brethren inside will
do no less. Let every alliance man do
his duty for our cause. See that every
member of your alliance is assured OF
the above facts for the good OF the order. y
TEE FIRST WORK.
This notice is of special interest, as it
is the first work of this kind that the al
lance has attempted in North Carolina.
The heads of the order will use every
means to elect Mewborne.
Steps were taken here to-day for the
organization OF press club composed
Of Raleigh newspaper
The Governor to-day offered 3iOO re-
ward for II. G.. Morrison, who murdered
his wife, Rhoda Morrison. near Ashe-
vile, as fully reported in the Dispatch.
ANOTHER REWARD.
Morrison is stated to be Of Amer
lean and African" blood; eighteen
years old five feet four inches high I;
with gray tor blue) eyes; rapid
walker ; looks like farmer has slim
and youthful face and young nous
tacho. The murdered womans grand
father, Edward Smith, of Philadelphia,
offers 500 reward for the murderer, who
is certainly well worth looking for. This
reward of 800 is the largest yet offered
by Governor Fowle
Sheriff J.. T.. Saunders. of Montgom-
cry county, left to-day for Atlanta,
whence he will 60 to Clinch county, Ga,
after Abe Mcqueen, who is wanted for
the murder OF Mcpherson in Montgom-
cry county, Mcqueen being in jail at
Dalton, Ga.
CAUSE OF PHR EXODUS REMOVED.
Inquiry was made to-day of one of the
Executive Committee of the North Caro-
lima Exodus Association as to what
would be the proportions and character
of the movement of the blacks this
winter. He said that three or four
months ago he was sure there would be
large exodus, but that the fine crops
and consequent better wages now paid
have almost removed any desire of the
negroes to leave North Carolina. As a
result there will be no repetition OF last
winters scenes, when the blacks rushed
so wildly away to the far South. A few
will 90 but mainly to the West and
North, and the movement will be
gradual.

The Memphis Appeal calls upon the
voters of Tennessee to make their pro
test strong against the "Robinhoodism
of the MCKINLEY tariff, and it charac-
terizes the bill still further in the follow
ing language:
"There is no way OF excusing or ex-
planning it. There is no way OF apollo
giving it OF palliating it. Every one must
know that the cause of this rise in prices
on these articles means simply re-
demption of the pledges made by the
Republican party to the tariff barons
while the fat-frying process was in vogue.
1t is a return of tribute to the tariff ba-
rons 1t is a division of the spoils oil
thievery."
