One remarkable popularity of the
grip in Japan was its prevalence among
the upper classes, whereas the cholera
selected its victims among the poorer
people. Some idea Of the extent of tho
epidemic may be gathered from the fact
that, at Yokohama, the sufferers off,
cially reported numbered over fifty
thousand, and it is estimated that the
unrcportcd cases throughout tho pre-

the one hundred and thirty thousand
inhabitants of Kobe, twenty-five thou

He Would Have Made it More Interest
ing for Layton Had lie Been Well.
a TINES reporter called on Carter
Lyons at his hotel yesterday and asked
him what he thought of the decision of
the referee in the contest with Layton.
Lyons showed no marks of his battle,
except a swollen lip and slight dis
co,oration OF the right eye. lie said
that he thought the decision of the
referee unjust in view of the fact that
the contest was stopped by outside in
reference and that the least the referee
could do was to declare it a draw. That
it is All understood thing in all contests
OF this character, whore the bout is
stopped by outside interference or by
mutual consent, there is nothing left for
the referee to do but declare it draw,
in view of the fact that both men are in
condition and anxious to continue, for
in that case no one can tell who is going
to be the winner. Continuing. he said:
81 do not know whether / can whip
Layton. l am not egostistical enough
to say that can whip him, but | could
have made it hundred times more
interesting for him if had been we'll.
AS it was, was too weak to punch him
and on account of that weakness was
afraid to try my usual tactics. Layton
is apparently good, big. strong, clever
boxer, but when in proper condition 1
think am just as good. Last night

like to haye another bout with him

From the Clifton Forge Review
The ROANOKE TINES issued q special
edition of it's paper on tho 25th ultimo,
which that paper styled Especial hotel
edition." and it can be truthfully said
that the issue reflects great credit not
only upon THE TIMES, but also and cspc-
cially upon Mr.. James a. Pugh, who
prepared the special edition. Mr.. Pugh
is one of the ablest newspaper writer's of
which Virginia can boast, and this spe-
cial edition of TIE ROANOKE TINES is
an evidence of what he can do. The
paper contains twenty-five cngravings
artistically executed, showing the chic f
hotels in many of the new towns Of the
two Virginias. The paper also contains
well-writtcn articles descriptive Of each
OF the hotels, together with the manner
OF their management and the chief fca-
lures OF their respective cities. AS an
advertisement nothing can surpass this
special edition Of THE ROANOKE TINES.
