SToCKs-The stock market was ex-
tremely active, the transactions for the
two hours of business being the largest we
have seen for that time in more than year,
except during the November panic Of last
year. The buying was Of the best quality
and was marked in volumefor both foreign
and domestic operators, the bullish feeling
running very high, and carrying all before
it. The opening was strong at fractional
advances over last nights figures, and
early demand sent the list further on its
upward march. The realizations here
caused a temporary set back and the buy
ing was then resumed in earnest and
prices began a forward movement which
lasted until the close. The market finally
closed very active at the highest price OF

A Difficult Problem.

The Richmond TINES in alluding 10 the
late convict-labor troubles in Tennessee says:
NO matter how conyicts are employed
they must interfere with the ability II free
laborers 20 earn q livelihood. Put them D.
building railroads and constructing other
improvements, and there is the same problem
to solve. After all the most equitable solu-
ton appears to be to employ them in the
manufacture of products which are after
wards offered for sslo at prices which the
same products manufactured By free labor
command in the market"
We think our Richmond contemporary
utterly fails 10 solve the problem III rs sug-
gestion. Even weresprison-made goods sold
at the Same price rs those produced by FREQ
labor, honest workmen would be thrown out
of employment in exact proportion 10 the
number of conyicts employed.
Ten thousand convict shoemakers would
mean ten thousand fewer honest Knights of
the Last But there Is a sphere where
almost every convict in tho country can be
employed without coming into competition
with honest industry, and at the same time
be public benefactors. Put them to work on
the public roads. and thereby add millions 10
the value Of our lands while eliminating an
unpleasant and dangerous factor from the
industrial problem. Roanoke Herald.

Death Of Prominent and Valuable Citizen
of tho County.

STANARDsvILLE. Va, August Especial. !
Major b. A. MCMILLAN. of McMulan's this
county, prominent citizen, aged sixty-three,
died Mt 8 o'clock F. NJ Monday, 9th ultimo.
His death was comparatively sudden. lie was
stricken down Saturday about noon. His
death was caused by congestion OF brain and
interna, visceIa, superinduced by cholera
mOrbus resembling AsRtic cholera. He was d
man of extraordinary good natural sense, pro-
found thinker, slow of speech, and his c0un-
SCI was always considered wise and was often
sought.
He had been school trustee since the or
ganizaton Of the free school system. and was
a very useful member OF the board. That he
was duly appreciated by his fellow-trustees
is attested by the following resolution:
BE it resolved. That in his death this body
has sustained loss almost irrepal able, the
county one Of its best citizens, his neghbor-
hood one of its most useful members aud his
family kind, magnanimous and afectionate
husband and father"
He was county surveyor and proficient in
his profession. Of which he was devotee.
His knowledge of land titles and boundaries
exceeded that of any person in the county.
The land titles in his possession are invalu-
able and make a miniature museum Of Won
derful interest. In politics he was pro
nOunced Democrat and has rendered valuable
service to the party IN this county. His wise
counsel and efficient work in fnture warm
contests will be greatly missed.

talked like man under the influence OF liquor
and impressed me as being OF q shady char
acter. The conductor will doubtless re-
member the man and could. ! expect, give
fuller details When the conductor spoke TO
him about his ticket he said in an brusque
manner / got of at Roanoke TO get
an excursion ticket. but could not
yet one. 80 suppose | will pay 70 Basic City.
The conductor passed ahead and told him no
would be back presently. When the conduc-
tor left the man got up and went back INTO
the sleeper. Upon the conductor returning.
he inquired of me where the man had
gone, and | told him, into the
sleeper He then replied. Why. what
did he want in there? he had neither business
or ticket for that car This was the last |
thought of the matter until / read the details
in TIE TINES. As this train arrived in

have been an easy matter for this shady char
scter to have boarded it, and rs it IL now the

nell was looking for him. it is not at ell I'M
probable that the action of the man on the
train with me in looking through the sleeper
had some significant purpose"
