A way ward Daughter.

Last night the Citizen man had oc-
casion to be at the depot when the
train from the north rolled in and met
a gentleman, probably go years of age,
named Harrison Williamson. ai.s
stated that he was in pursuit OF his
youngest daughter, Nettie, and that
he understood that she had met a
young man here and had gone to Cal
ifornia with him.
lie would not say from whence he
came, but tears rolled down his
cheeks when he told the story, brief
as it was, OF the waywardness OF his
daughter, a pretty, blooming young
lady just entering her 10th year. "She
was our youngest OF seven-four boys
and three girls. She was the pride OF
our household, for she was lively and
made everybody within her reach
happy; but she has left, leaving two
weeks ago, and we may never again
see her," remarked the old gentle
man. Mr.. Williamson believes that
his daughter met a young man here
with whom she is known to have been
writing, and that they are now in
California. He would not give de-
scription of the man or girl, and goes
West in the hope OF making his pur-
suit successful. ul.-Albuquerque Citizen.

A Comfortable Feeling.

George NJ. Pullman, who is credited
to be worth something like $50, ,000, 600,
is quite a philosopher in his way.
When asked how it felt to be a mill
ionaire, he replied: 81 have never
thought OF that. But now that you
mention it l believe that am no bet
ter off-certainly no happier-than l
was when / didn't have dollar to my
name and had to work from daylight
until dark. / wore a good suit OF
clothing then, and can only wear one
suit now. l relished three meals q
day then a good deal more than l do
three meals now. / had fewer cares |;
l slept better, and i may add generally,
thatI believe l was far happier in
those days than have been many
times since l became a millionaire.
And yet it is a comfortable feeling to
be rich"

wha. a Child a accomplished.

Mrs. Bertha Krebs, widow OF New
ark, N. j., who for four years has been
supporting herself and four children
by washing and other hard work, has
been notified that the Pension Office
at Washington has allowed her claims
for a pension. Mrs. Krebs said to
reporter:
al had about given up all hope Of
receiving a pension, and did not know
what in the world to do. Unbeknown
to me my little girl, Bertha, one day
in November, wrote a letter to Presi-
dent Harrison, telling him that / bad

for some reason she did not know.
She wrote that she had three brothers
and sisters, and that she almost al
ways found me crying, and that / did
not know how we we're going to live
this Winter. She sent the letter with
out my knowing anything about it.
That was one Tuesday in November.
The next Thursday the postman came
up on the steps and said: A letter
for Bertha Krebs from the Presi-
dent"
:" 1t was from the Presidents secre-
tary, and promised that the case
should be looked after. And now l
have just got word that my claim is
allowed. 1t all came through my lit
tie girls writing to the President"

rxix, school and AI.ar.

Often the most memorable time in
the life of a woman is that period
which lies between the schoolroom
and the altar.
When the girl enters the world after
her education is finished she does
not always find it what she expected.
The schoolroom is one thing, the
world another.
She may have been popular with her
teachers because she was a diligent
scholar, and carried off the honors OF
the school. But she finds that book
knowledge does not make her popular
or successful socially.
Some of the most intellectual peo-
pie | have known have been among
the most disagreeable. A woman
whose intellect is aggressive, who
parades her knowledge before those oil
ior intellect or education, is an
object to be dreaded.
Mere learning in woman is never
attractive. 1t is, on the contrary, Of
fensiye, unless coupled with feminine
graces.
School learning should sink into the
character and department, and only
e-snDlt itself as the perfume OF a
dover is sxhibited-in subtle, name
less and unobtrusive manner.-La-
dies Home Journal.

Uninte ,tfonaI Profanity.

Some one has been looking up the
origin OF some OF the peculiar white
oaths that people use, and the result
is interesting. The oath "by jimini"
is not classic in appearance, but it is
clearly a corruption Of the Latin
gemini," or twins" as applied to
the demi-gods, Castor and Pollux.
What does my lady mean when she
sighs, 80, dear?" She is simply
initiating madame, who says Mon
dieu," with Gallo vivacity. When
the man Of the world calculates /" the
deuce |" he imagines that he is talking
English. o. no. He is talking Latin
again and evoking the devil, designa-
ted in the word dusius." When our
rural friends gasp gosh !" with aston
ishment depicted on their counten-
ances, they are simply giving sibilant
ending TO the otherwise hard-sounding
name OF the deity. When the gushing
school girl twitters Goodness graci-
ous," il she would think a moment
and reverse the words she would never
use them again, lightly. A little
study OF the true meaning OF the words
might save a great deal OF uninten-
tional profanity.-Boston Advertiser.

He was q Great Surgeon.

"I tell you" exclaimed the young
medical student, "our professors a
great surgeon"
"How's that ?" asked his chum.
"Well, fellow was brought in with
a crushed leg. The professor said it
must come off. So he hacked away,
and, by gosh cut off the wrong leg!"
" Do you call that great SURGERY"
Wait bit. The professor said it
would be terrible for the poor fellow
to go about with no legs at all, 80 he
splintered up the crushed leg, instead
of cutting that off, too, and, now it is
as good as ever. An ordinary surgeon
would have left the fellow legless.

CHARLEY WAS a GIRL.
And "He' Broke the Heart of His
Little Nurse.


MEMPHIS, Tenn, Jan. 2.-kA-t
Frank, good-looking young woman
OF twenty, came here four weeks ago
from Owensboro, KY, dressed in
mems clothes and went to the st. Jo-
seph's Hospital for treatment, giving
the name Of Charley Smith.
She was sick with chills. She was
placed in male ward and rename
there until she was discharge as
cured without betraying the secret oil
her sex.
A week later she came TO the City
Hospital suffering as before and was
assigned to the male ward. Again
she successfully passed herself off as a
man, and after her recovery the man
ager employed her TO do odd jobs
about the place.
To-day one of the female nurses de-
tected her and reported her to the ma
tron. An investigation was ordered
and Miss Annie owned up and re-
sumed her petticoats. She says she
ran away from home because her un-
Gle, with whom she lived, was unkind
TO her. She will be given employ
ment in her proper character.
She is tall and splendidly devel-
oped, and carries trowsers with singu-
lar ease. Not one man in hundred
could detect her.
The singular part OF her history is
that one of the female nurses, Miss
Ella Hopkins, girl Of twenty, sup
posing her TO be man, fell in love
with her and gave II out that she was
to marry the patient as soon as "he +"
recovered.
When she learned the truth she fell
in faint, and has been in a delirium
ever since. Her pitiful calls for
Charley" are heartrending. Char
ley is not at all affected by the news
OF his old sweetheart's distress.

obesity Cure.

Never eat more than one dish at
meal, no matter what that dish may
be, and a person may consume as
much as the stomach may bear, and
satisfy the appetite without the least
reserve. Nevertheless, nothing bat
one dish should be taken k.a,na,,,on,on r@ -.,.
desserts should be allowed. This sys-
tenn was recommended by the author
OF the note to lady who was slightly
obese, and who put it into practice
with the best results. The lady OBJ
served that she suffered no inconve-
nience whatever from this diet, and
the result obtained by many others
may be we'll understood, as she found
by her own experience that the par
taking of only one dish, whether it be
meat, fish or vegetables, brought on q
sense of safety much sooner than II
she had partaken of a variety OF
dishes, whence the effect of relative
absence.-Pharmaceutical Gazette.

DENVER, Colo, Nov. 3.-[Speciall-
The weather to-day was warm and
cloudy. and the election beyond all
question was the most peaceful over
held in Denver. Considering the fact
that this is an off year, and that the
Australian system, which went into
effect, has disfranchised the colonies
and two dollar men, the vote cast was a
surprisingly heavy one.
Little or no trouble was experienced
in getting voters through the polling
booths, and the places of voting were
free from gangs of ticket peudlers and
boozers, who under the old system were
an annoyance to voters. When the
polls closed tonight no arrests had been
reported for illegal voting.
There were five parties in the field
Democratic, Republican, Prohibition,
Peoples party and Peoples Non-Parti-
san party-two first polling the vote, the
other three having little show. No State
officers were voted for except for chief
Justice OF the supreme court, and but
little scratching was done, and that en-
tirely among names for local offices.
Reports received from various parts
OF the state indicate that the election
passed off quietly, and in many places
mixed ticket was chosen. The counting
of ballots will be very slow. on account
of the great distance the precincts are
apart. 1t will BIO very late before
returns of definite character can be
had.
Helms election to be chief Justice of
the supreme court is claimed by the
chairman of the State Republican Com
mittee by over 5000.

The Times stereoptlcon Bulletins Enter
tain an Immense Crowd.
Probably larger clement of the pop
ulation of Roanoke is interested in poll
tics here than in any other city in Vir-
ginia.
Something like thousand people as
sembled last night at the corner of Sa-
lem avenue and Henry street to read
the bulletines displayed by THE TIMES
on the election returns. Owing to the
adoption of the Australian ballot sys-
tenn in the three States of tho North,
the returns were late coming in.
The hrst accounts gave tho results in
Roanoke, showing large majorities for
both Democratic candidates, although
MIR. Thoma fell several votes behind
Marshall. AS the evening wore on tho
Democrats cheered loudly over tho
magnificent showing made by Flower in
New York, and the Republicans found
consolation in the indications of Nc
kinley's election in Ohio.
Pennsylvania and Ohio were both
slow in making returns, while Massa-
chusetts, at an early hour, gave evil
dence of the gallant fight which Gov
ernor Russell was making to hold his
own.
The bulletins were interspersed with
an interesting series of pictures, largely
illustrative OF Chicago and the coming
Worlds Fair. These were greatly APP
preciated by the audience, who justified
their appreciation by generous applause.
The defeated candidates came in for
fair share of good humored bandinage
in the shape OF cartoons. and the sue
cessful ones were not wholly spared.
The crowd laughed heartily over the
announcement that Chairman Asberry
conceded Thomas election, and 1t grew
uproarious when a slide exhibited the
question. Whats the matter with
Alex. Brodie?" From the demonstra-
tion which followed this it was evident
that'if Brodie had been running against
Thomas, Thomas might have Jared
worse than he did.
1t was we'll after midnight before the
bulletins were stopped and the crowd
dispersed. 1t is fair to say that it was
tho best free entertainment ever given
in Roanoke.
The stereopticon was managed by r.
b. Carson. of R. B.::Carson e. Co, who
travel with this stereopticon advertis-
ing outfit which has been giving free
show to the people of Roanoke every
night for several we eks and incidentally
displaying large mum Der of attrac tt We
advertisements of local houses.
The entire success of the attempt of
THE TIMES to give the people of Roa-
noke early news of tho elections was
due to the admirable handling OF the
stereopticon by these gentlemen.
Not ceable among the slides was one
OF THE TIMES staff and employees, to
Il e.number of twenty five, bearing the
significant label An Dem ocrats." The
slides were prepared under the super
vision of Hiss Rodden and Miss Bald
win, Of the Roanoke Photographic
Studio.
