Roanoke has population of $4,000.
Its, citizens are from NEARLY every State
in the Union. Eight years ago it had
600 people. It's growth at present is on
more solid basis and moro rapid than
ever before in it's history.
Roanoke is located Attic Junction of
the Shenandoah and Roanoke valleys.
Its altitude is 0O7 feet. and it is sur
rounded by a rioh agricultural and min
eral country.
Roanoke is distant Just eight hours
ride from Washington and Norfolk, nine
from Baltimore. twelve from Philadel-
phia and fourteen from New York. It
is Situated at, the junction Of the Shen-
andoah Valley and Norfolk and West
ern railroads, both trunk lines, and iss
easily reached from any section of the
country. t., t ss''
The Roanoke and Southern railroad
Is now being built to this place from
Winston, N. c., and will in years
time open up the trade of tho Carolinas
to this section. The Valley. Branch of
the Baltimore and Ohio runs to Licking
top, forty miles distant,and road filling
ythe connecting link will be constructed
Ito Roanoke jim D short time.
Tho<growth' of the city dates from
1882, when the headquarters of tho Nor
folk and Western wore removed here
from Lynchburg, the Shenandoah VAL
ley'road was completed, and the Roam
oke Machine Works. employing at pre-
sent l,TO0 hands, was established. Since
then millions of dollars have flowed
into the city in the establishment of
manufactures and other business enter
priscs. H. ,
! Coal and iron and the rich agricul-
tural lands Of the section have con-
tributed to the growth.
Roanoke has sixty-five miles of streets
and eight miles Of street. railway inside
the corporate limits. A dummy line ex-
tends to Vinton, n distance of two miles
east, and to Salem, six miles west
Throughout tho city electricity, in a
short time. will take the place Of horses
as motive power.
The water works are sufficient to fur
nish city of $4,000 inhabitants. The
supply comes from q pure, cold spring

in the country. 1t is undoubtedly a

The property valuation, according to

and the Roanoke Machine Works The
increase in tho valuo of realty was
about S5,0GU,U00 over !, the previous

turned to Boston or its vicinity and be-
came one of that group of writers for the
young, especially for boys, of which J. T.
Trowbridge and William T. Adams were
the chief members. These men all reside
in or near Boston, and their success in
writing for the young, although in entirely
different ways, has been remarkable.
Mr.. Coffin was persuaded years ago that
a story of the war, written in narrative
form and introducing fictitious characters,
would be sure to interest young people,
and therefore would be certain to be a sue
cessful financial venture. At that time the
field had been practically untouched
There had been very successful book en-
titled 'The Romance of the Revolution"
published years before which Mr.. Coffin
remembered interested him greatly in his
childhood: and the historian Benson j.
Losing had written some historical mar
ratives in a simple style which made them
easy reading for the young, and these, too,
were successful. Therefore Mr. Coffin be-
lieved that youth and young men would
be very glad to get hold of a story of the
war which, constructed on slight founda-
ton of plot, might tell simply and clearly
the story of the battles. He therefore
brought ont a book of this sort, and the
sale it met with showed how accurate his

and Young men OF that day what Capt.
Marryatt's novels had been for boys of an
earlier generation, and what Dumas

Europe a quarter Of a century before.
Since then Mr. Trowbridge has cult
waited the field with great success. and he
undoubtedly stands at the head Of story
tellers for young people in this country.
His books have brought him q sufficient

ular sold all over the United States. aud
brought Mr.. Coffin very handsome pecuni-
airy rewards.
He also attempted another work which
would be descriptive in the same way Of
the battles and exploits of the revolution,
and his Boys of '76'' has become a classic
in thousands of American homes. Other
works of a similar nature followed, until
now the latest of them, which brings the
narrative down to the present day, has
been published
These ventures have made Mr. Coffin
comparatively wealthy, and he is now en-
tering upon the decline Of life with a COM
Portable fortune, and with the delightful
consciousness that he has entertained and
made happy more of the youth of this
country, perhaps, than any other writer for
the young, excepting, possibly, Miss AL
colt. He lives near Boston in a delightful
home, and lives an ideal life
Another writer developed by the war
was Mr.. J. 7. Trowbridge. Unlike Mr.

historical, and are fiction rather than mar

In respect to rapidity of composition, as
well as the number of books he has writ
ten, Mr. Adams resenbled Alexander Du-
mas He has written an almost innumerable
number of books, and is still writing. OF
course his works will not stand the test Of
time, as some of Dumas did.
Mr. Coffin, Mr.. Trowbridge and Mr.
Adams are warm personal friends, but the
time is not very far off when through the
advance of years they must be obliged to
lay aside their pens, and when they have
gone this Boston group which has so long
