BUILDINGS FOR NEW INDUSTRIES

BUILDINGS FOR NEW INDUSTRIES.
Many Costly Structures for misunderstanding
Purposes.
The buildings for new industries will
DO an important part of tho operations
in this line.
Tho buildings of the Cold Storage
Company in the eastern part of the city.
near tho brewery, are we'll under way
and will be completed wishin sixty days.
There is 4 building for the ice plant
1T7X30 feet with four de0artments-the
boiler house, freezing tank, machine
house, and leo house OF fifty tons ca
pacity-and tho cold storage building
l32N'4 feet, consisting OF seventeen de-
partments. Tho buildings are of wood
and will cost about $4,000. The cold
storage department, which can be kept
atany desired temperature, will be used
for storing Chicago meats and fancy
groceries. Tho company will handle the
goods as we'll as store for other dealers.
Tho plant has siding connection with
the Norfolk and Western and is immedi-.
ately on the dummy line. The ma
chincry, which cost about 5000, has
already arrived and will soon be put in
place, tho building for the ice plant
being nearly completed. The CAPACITY
of this plant will be fifteen tons per day,
and ice will be manufactured for sale.
Tho cold storage company has capital
stock of $4,000.
Tho E. III. Stewart Mattress Company
has Increased its capital stock and will
enlarge it's plant. Work has already
been commenced on q three-s tory brick
building on Holiday street, to cost Sa5,-
600, to be occupied by the mattress fac
tory Tho new plant will be in opera
ton this year.
Plans have been made for the Duval
Engine Works, to DO removed here from
GAINESVILLE, Ohio. The main building
will be 200X40 feet, two stories high.
1t will be used as machine shop,
for tho engines tarned out by. the,
works, and in the rear will be shed
over a railroad siding. The first floor will
be used as a drafting room. Back of this
shed will be two wings, one at each end,
l50X50 feet. One Of these will be oocu-
pied by the foundry and the other by
the boiler works. The wings will be OF
wood with truss roofs. The entire
building will cost Sl2, 200, and the works
will employ 150 skilled worl7men.
Tho Bell Printing and Manufao-
turing Company is one of the infant
industries whose growth demands moro
room. When the company began the
job printing business here six years ago
the entire force consisted of one man
and boy. Thirty mon are now en-
ployed and tho pay roll amounts to
nearly $500 per week. Ground has heen
broken ON $4,000 three-story brick
building on Jefferson street near Hotel
Felix, which is to be occupied by the
company as soon as completed. Tho
building will be Sexl0O feet and will
lave three and half times tho floor
room now occupied by the company.
The plant will be enlarged and improved
in every depar tment and will be selected
with view, not only of supplying the
present needs of the city in this line,
hut of preparing for several years ahead.
Hammonds Printing Works will also
receive q notable expansion. The plans
are as yet not fully developed, but Mr..
Hammond has already purchased SEQ 600

TIE TIMES presents this morning tho
completest exposition of building op-
erations ever given in Roanoke. The
money to be invested in buildings this
year will amount to $4,000, 900. In

the interesting facts and figures given
below. Structures to cost a million and
half have been already put under con-
tract.
Under the head of buildings for indus
tries none are included except those.
for which plans arc being made. The.
shelf hardware plant, which is practi-.
cally assured. and the buildings for

numerous other industries which arc.
certain to be located during tho year on,
the Roanoke Development Company's

Respect for Parnell's Memory.

AT meeting OF the confederated
Irish societies of Chicago the following
resolution was adopted:
"Rcsolred, That this meeting. while
disclaiming any desire to suggest, much
less to dictate, to Irishmen respecting the
leadership Of the Irish party. deems It es
sential to any plan of union that no per
son prominent in the persecution OF the
late MIR. Parnell can be at all recognized
us in any sense acceptable to the Irish
America people,
Resolutions were also passed deploring
the death OF Parnell as national calami-
ty to ireland and condemning the un-
christian and false pretentions OF the arti-
Gle on Parnell's death, attributed 10 Arch
bishop Walsh, and the foul and ruffianly
comments Of the journal called tho Ma

At the close Of the meeting generous

APART from the thought OF an ir,.
hcritance, and apart from any desire
to claim kinship with an illustrious
family, there is a pleasurable interes,
in tracing ones kith and kin and know
ing the stock which has contributed to
ones well or ill-being. This interest
is not at all inconsistent with the demo.
cratic spirit Of our country for 10
know ones relatives does not by any
means argue their superiority. Aside
from the pleasure there may be a prac-
tical advantage in knowing hereditary
traits, finding out what physical or
moral tendencies are to be guarded
against and learning what possible
talents may lie dormant waiting 10 be

TRAVELS IN ALAskA.
schwatka's Account Of His Joufnsy
TO the Far North.

Lieutenant Schwatka, the noted ex.
plorer, who has been conducting scion.
tiHc expedition In the far North, reached
Victoria on his return on the sth. He
gives the following account of the jour
ney:
ave struck Lake Ahklin June 10. The
lake was found to be ninety.Ave miles
long, drained by the river Newbury, 146
miles long. We shot Rink rapids In
which the waves were running eight feet
high, and proceeded overland to Fort Sol.
kirk. Here we hired Indian packers and
started for the Copper river country
About 225 miles brought Us to the foot OF
the St. Elias Alps, which are from IL, 900
to 1900 feet high. Glacial Ice extended 80
or 60 miles GU each side. Hero the Indians
left US. The white men Of the party then
took 10 or 50 pounds each on their bncks,
abandoning all other property, Including
the scientific Instruments.
ain q march Of about 50 miles we man
aged to break through the St. Elias Alps
on glacier which brought US to the east
fork Of the Copper river. This is u
mountain torrent impeded by glaciers
every few miles. Tho last days march,
from four In the morning until Mt night,
was only two and u half miles, and SO
fatiguing as to almost exhaust tho party.
Tho canvas covers Of the bcduing were
used to build boat fourteen feet long
l. with ribs OF willows. In this we started
down the Wees Guar, fork of the Copper
river, hoping that few miles would take
Us out OF the enormous rapids. They,
however, were thirty miles long. The
boat upset several times aud the men
were nearly drowned. In one place all
went over fall and under waterfall.
Five miles OF this stream was an enorm.
GUS canon, with perpendicular walls 600 to
500 feet high. Our speed wss very great
and we were not more than two hours iu
running these rapids.
AFTER going another 100 miles we struck
Indians. BY this time we were complete
ly out Of food, for long time having had
only flour and tea. The descent of tho
Copper river was much easier. When,
about the middle Of August, we arrived at
its mouth, the men were almost shoclcss
and without clothes. Wo opened about
zoo or 600 miles OF totally unknown coun.
try. We secured thorough maps taken by
DIR. Hayes, Of tho geological survey at
Washington. Back OF the ST. Elias Alps
were over fifty peaks from $4,000 To 10000
feet high. All Of the upper forks of tho
White river were mapped out, and many
signs Of p:inerals, particularly copper,
were met with. We saw fifty-Hve lakes,
ranging in length from three to 100 miles
A large collection Of botanical specimens
was made and photographs OF everything
Of interest were taken.
"The most successful feature of the
whole trip was the breaking through the
St Elias ranges, feat never before ac.
complished by man. All of tho party arc
well. Tho journey was hazardous In the
extreme and of imminent danger at times'

During d drenching rain the re-.
mains Of Charles Stewart Parneli were
laid at rest at Dublin last Sunday.
The funeral was one Of the most impos-

from oil parts Of tho country brought tens
Of thousands Of sad hearted Irishmen 10
Dublin.
When the cofiin was landed at Kingstown
1t was met by o surging crowd. As 1t was
being borno to the shore there were many
cries Of: "He was murdered! He was
murderedr'
The trip from Kingstown to Dublin was
without incident At Dublin the body
was met by one Of the largest crowds ever
assembled In the city. The procession
that accompanied the remains to the city
hall was two miles long and in 1t wer'
deputations from all places in ireland.
The city hall throughout was draped in
black and the catafalque was covered with
black pail and surrounded with hex
agonal barrier. Visitors were obliged to
march past the casket In the strictest
order and in single tile Many persons In
the line were observed to be moved to
tears. About the casket were large
number OF floral offerings. One bore, in
letters beautifully and artistically formed
tho words;
To my own true love,
My husband, my king
Another tribute that was given prom.
inent place was from the members Of the
National League at Belfast. 1t was huge
wreath with the ''red handn Of Ulster
worked In red flowers in the center, and
tho words,
"Murderedr and "Revense'
In red and purple flowers respectively on
the top and bottom. The remains were
finally taken from the hall and placed in u
hcarse surrounded by Parnells colleagues
Only Parnell's relatives, colleagues and
the municipal representatives were I'D
mitted to the cemetery. The general body
of those following the hearse proceeded
up Finglas road. No banners were car.
ried. The ceremonies at the grave were
solemn and impressive.

those present were moved to tears and
audible sobs were heard on all sides.
Among the flowers placed on the grave
was wreath inscribed with the names OF
tho thirty one Parnellites.
When the procession started from the
city hall drenching rain began to fall.
but to all appearances it was hardly no
ticed by the sad throng. There were no
disturbances Of any kind. The intermcn,
ut tho cemetery was one of the most i'm
prcssivo ceremonies ever witnessed in
Dublin.
1t had been feared that the friends OF
Parnell might make demonstration
against the anti-Parnellites, but the lat
ter wisely remained out Of sight.
