BLOODY BATTLE
ONE OF THE PARTY MAY
LOSE AN EYE.
FREE FIGHT ON RAILROAD AVENUE.
a Lively Chase for the Aggressors by
the Police. An Assault without Pro-
vacation. The Case Will DO Settled
AT Police Headquarters.

A big fight occurred opposite Wood
land Park near the Machine Works
yesterday afternoon about i3 o'clock.
There were six or eight participants
to the affair, and rocks aid sticks were
flying through the air prom iscuously.
G. G.. Blankenship, James Greasy,
Tom Franklin, two moulders named
Shelley and three others were cut
severely on the head and shoulders
and Blankenship may lose the use of
his right eye, which was cut in hor-
rihle manner by n rock. According
to Partnerships account the Shelley
party were the aSgressors. He says
that Greasy and himself, together
with another man. were walking
along Railroad avenue and when OBJ
posite the bridge that leads into the
Machine Works, were hailed by n
party from the rear. They turned,
but as they did not recognize any of
the five men that were approaching
them, started on again.
They were again hailed and this
time stopped until the men came up
TO them. The largest one of the
Skeeleys, so it is charged, then struck
Blankcnship and the Others Jumped
on Greasy and his companion. a free
fight then ensued and blood flowed
as freely as champagne at n real estate
banquet. After scrapping'fo for about
thirty minutes Blankenslrip and his
party ran into the Machine Works
and the last act in the tragedy will
take place at the Police Court to-
morrow morning.
Policeman Pete Bowers had a lively
chase after the SHELLEY brothers down
the Shenandoah Valley railroad yard,
but captured them and they are now
in iii awaiting trial.
Blankenship alleges that he had
never seen any member Of the assault
ing party and had never given them
a cause to make the attack.

the men to whom the stalls were
rented and the amounts paid: Nos.
and to G.. w. Wilkinson and Bandy

The "Joo Car Coupler"

Active steps were taken Yesterday
toward reviving the joint stock COM
pany organized some years ago to put
into use the above car coupler. y
meeting was held at which officers
and directors were chosen to fill va
cancies. DR.. f. 4. Parsons was chosen
president in the place Of Colonel ID. +.
Houston, deceased. Mr.. j. r. Schick
was chosen vice president; Thos. W.
Miller, treasurer and attorney end L.
7. Brinkley, secretary. The directors
chosen to fill vacancies were L.. l..
Powell. n. |. Tubbs and E. y. Par
sons. The revival of this important
enterprise is attended with much
promised good rs n life save since cars
may be coupled auto natically.
Committees were appointed TO con
fer with railroad officials regarding
putting the couplers at once into use.
The annual meeting Of stockholders

THE GREEN-EYED MONSTER.
And How 1t Effected Two Dusky
| Relies md Il Sable Dude.

Two dusky damsels sat on either
side of the long table in Justice How
erton's little Office yesterday afternoon
and glared ut each other. The Justice
sat at one end of the table while
Everett Perkins stood at the other and
lying before him was Il stick, of the
shilally type and long keen bladed
knife.
These latter instruments were the
cause of the whole trouble if We ex-
cept a sable dude. He could not well
be excepted, however, for he was the
bone of contention. And it was for
him that Betty Price went on a still
hunt for Lizzie Holland for and it was
also for him that the latter belabored
her rival over the head. Mr.. Perkins
tried to prove that it was in self de-
Tense that his client had done the cut
ting, but Justice Howerton would not
have it so and sent Betty to the grand
jury. She was escorted to Jail by an
officer and Lizzie ran nimbly down
the step and joining the dude on the
street, they walked away together.

ZIG LAND SALE.
The Rogers, Fairfax and Houston
Property to be Disposed of.

Those of Roanoke's citizens who
desire to secure home, or to purchase
lots for speculation will be given an
opportunity this week to do so, and
if person gets on the ground early
big money can be made: The
entire property of Rogers. Fairfax
and Houston remaining unsold
on Wednesday, the Goth, will be
put U D at public auction and sold at
o'clock OF that day. The object OF
selling the property is that the es-
tate of the late David F. Houston
may be settled up.
The property of this company
which was the first land company
organized in this city, is so well
known to every resident of the city
that it is almost unnecessary tc
describe it. 1t, however, lies in the
Northwestern section of the town
extending from Jefferson street, north
to the property of the Hyde Park
Land company in the West End.
Among the lots in this addition are
some of the most desirable in Roam
oke and it offers many advantages
over some other properties.
The land is just elevated enough tc
give good drainage, and as it is well
drained, is consequently very healthy
and therefore on this account alone a
residence there is to be desired. 1t is
situated only short distance from
the central portion of the city, and as
the street cars and dummy line run
through it, it will be very convenient
for the business men. A house in this
addition will give all the comforts OF
suburban residence and at the
same time all the advantages of city
life.
The view to be obtained from this
properey is excellent. Surrounded on
all sides by the Blue Ridge and
Allegheny chains of mountain, in
sight of the celebrated Peaks of Otter,
and our own Peaks, Weaver's and
Stuart's Knobs, only a short distance
from Roanoke river, the crystal stream
that tumbles and foams as it flows on
to the sea, and over it all skies as
bright and climate as beautiful as
ever blessed primeval paradise. What
more can be asked. Surely no more
desirable place could be secured.
Now Is the time to make money by
judicious investment. Take Shake
speares advice and put money in thy
purse" A person could not avail him
self of better opportunity OF making
safe venture than by being on hand
early and securing one of these bar
gains.
The terms of sale are one-third
cash, and the residue two equal an
nual instalments, with interest

mr. wannmaker's Life Insurance.

John Wanamaker carries ST, zoo, 600
life insurance No man in the world
probably no two men) supports such
a number of policies as he. 1t is quite
certain that he must have policies in
nearly every company in the world.
Only three companies will risk as
much as 100000 in human life, and
those are In New York.
This amount of life insurance must
cost Mr. Wanamaker between $500, 900
and 100000 per year, but it is a good
investment if man engages IN such
large transactions as he. because if it

Do you know why it is that the
Honorable William e. Gladstone, in
variably uses the humble postal
card for the purpose of correspond
ence9 1t is because he is the father
