Foundation on Commonwealth Avenue.
Officer Rigney took William Cooper
out of jail yesterday and carried him to
the foundation OF building started long
ago on Commonwealth avenue to find IA
gold watch purportcd to be hidden

had IL diagram Of the foundation, exhib-
iting the exact spot where the watch
might be found. So Cooper was placed in

over. The place was easily found and
tho search began. Fully two hundred

ing for the watch. A small space of earth
was discovered in which the watch had
been hidden, but on removing the stone
it was found to bc gone. The police say
that Mary billiard had cotton tho watch
and carried it to Salem. Officer Ripney

a BEAUTIFUL PAINTING.
The Curtain mt the Roanoke Opera IIous
n Magnificent Production.

The Curtain mt the Roanoke Opera House
Magnificent Productions.
Ono Of tho handsomest pieces of scenic
work in the South is tho new drop cur
tain at tho Opera House. The coloring
is rich and appropria tc, and the different
scenes on the curtain convey tho i'm.
preston that they arc pieces OF statu-
airy, rather than nero painted pictures.
In the center is a beautiful water
scene that is startlingly realistic, and on
eich side are two historic figures.
Heavy drapery is painted on each side
and their folds and hangings are so life.
like they have the appearance of real
curtains.
a piano is also shown on ono side and
so accurately is it drawn it seems that
you have but to touch the keys to bring
forth sweet melody. Several very hand
some advertisements are scattered over
t1e curtain, and the whole effect is such
that any ono ing it cannot but help
admiring it.
The artist is c. w. Spichcr, who, al
though young man, possesses wonder
full genius. He is graduate Of one of
tho finest academies in the country and
is certainly destined to mako a great
name for himself as n scenic artist. lie
has received offers from several of the
leading theatres in this section to paint
both curtains and scenery His work
truly merits all the praise it receives.

A NEGRO WOMAN DETECTIVE.
Icr Little Game Failed to Work With the
Roanoke Police.

Her Little Game Failed to Work With the
Roanoke Police.
colored woman appeared OF police
headquarters Wednesday evening and
informed Assistant Chief Wolf that she
had located negro man in this city
who was wanted in Charlotte county for
robbing the Richmond and Danville do
pot at Randolph station.
Wolfe questioned tho woman pretty
closely and she gavo the ofIicor to under
stand that sho was detective duly en-
ployed by the company.
She further stated that about ten
months ago the Richmond and Danville
depot at Randolph was broken open and
lot of whiskey, etc. carried Off, while
the agent. Henry Mosely, was absent.
She SAID Nelson Foster was the negro
suspected and that she had been in Roa-
noke about two weeks looking for him.
She had now located him. He was run
ming dray and lived on Fourth avenue
II. w.
Tho officer declined to arrest tho man
on the story of tho woman alone, and so
had message sent to Mr. Mosely ask
ing if Foster was wanted there. Yes
tcrday morning he received tho reply
that Foster was not wanted. The woman
has since disappeared.
Officer Gee, who camo from Charlotte
county, remembers the circumstance Of
the robbing of the depot, and told a
TINES reporter that if the robber had
not already been captured some ono was
wanted. lilo has no faith in the woman's
story of being e;ectivo employed by
the road, but thinks it likely that She
nay have been employed by the depot
agent to locate the thief, but has failed
in this expedition.
The woman stated to the officers that
she had been employed by the railroad
for number of years to do just such
work

Estimates for
Chicago Grain Market.
Trade Dull I'm England.

The Manchester Guardian in its weekly
review of trade says of the English situa-
ton Dizziness prevails, though business
of Importance at sacrifice prices was exc
cuted in several departments. Makers of
the best India and China shirtings and of
the finer India fancy goods and other
specialties are in strong position, while
merchants generally are disposed to look
for lower prices. Some sales of shirtings
show Id. decline. There is little trade in
the common qualities offering, except at a
marked reduction.
The demand is checked by the recent
slackness in cotton. Printing and other
finishing cloths are rather neglected. The
inquiry for plain heavy goods is fair,
though it is rarely important Yarns are
quiet. There is a moderate inquiry for
export yarns at low rates. Some orders
have been executed for India and China
which were impracticable last week. Con-
tinental buyers are acting carefully. Ad-
vices from Germany show that the spin
ners and manufacturers of that country
have a poor trade. Unless the demand
improves quickly, short time or stoppage
of looms will be resorted TO.
