New York Tipes. The young scions Of

to all this, addresses the invitations,
provides the music, engages the caterer
and discusses with him suitable menu,
comes early to the house on the day of
the fete, arranges flowers and other
decorations puts away brcakable brio

the rich will romp), is on hand ut the
arrival of the small guests, and after
the presdigitator, Punch and Judy, tab
ieaux, or whatever show is over, starts
games and dancing, and in various ways
keeps up the spirit of the affair. More
than all this, the director returns the
next day to supcrintend the restoration
to its normal condition of the house aft

A Mule VIII Kick.

John Hunt, colored drayman, was
kicked on the head by mule yesterday
morning at the stable near the Diamond
ice factory and had his skull fractured.
1t appears that John, who was just
fixing to start out with his dray, was
changing tho mule to q stall in place of
horse. Tho mule got out into the
yard and began kicking and scampering
around at a terrible rate. Hunt at
tempted to capture him, when he was
struck over the right eye and knocked
scnseless. He was carried into his house
near by and DR.. Luck was summoned,
but it was some time before he was
brought to life. After an examinatio
the doctor found that the skull had bt en-
fractured, and regards his condition as

NINE DAYS TO REGISTER.
Whore tho Books and Registrars of the
Different Wards Are.

Whore tho Books and Registrars of the
Different Wards Are.
Tho voters OF Roanoke have but nine
days to register, but Notwithstanding
this fact the registration books thus
far contain but few names. The books
close at shutdown on the Gath inst, and
those who have not registered by that
time cannot vote.
There have been few transfers made
from one ward to another, but n major
ity of the voters seem to be waiting the
last moment The big rush on the
last few days entails q good deal Of
hard work on the registrars and then
some names are sure to be omitted.
Capt. II. L. Barksdale is the registrar
of tho First ward. He can be found
with Simmons, Carpenter & Tinsley,
and his book is always ready. to receive
names. AS has been his custom in tho
past, the captain will go to tho polls,
the hall Of the Junior Hose Company,
on tho cath, where he will remain all
day.
Charles w. Beckner is the registrar
of the Second ward, and no can genor-
ally be found either at Haines' Cafe,
ON Jefferson street. or at the Opera
House. For the Third ward M. A. John
son is registrar and he has his registra-
ton book at his place Of busine IS, cor
ner of Brooke and Wells streets.

Time Ago.
Cary Linkenhoker, an old farmer
who formerly lived on the Fincastle and
Craig turnpike in Bototourt, but who
now resides on Back Creek in Roanoke
county, was arrested yesterday by
Officer Norman on the charge of shoot
ing q negro in Botetourt county.
He was pointed out on the street
to the officer, who was told that an in
dictment stood against him in tho Bote-
tourt court.
The facts in the case are about as
follows: Cal. Saunders, notorious
negro, shot ono of Linkenhoker's dogs
last August year ago. He then cursed
Mrs. Linkenhoker, and when her hus-
band took the matter up shot at him
four times. A shot gun was brought
out of the house, and the old gentle
man blazed away. slightly wounding
the negro in the side. Saunders got out
a warrant and had Mr.. Linkenhoker in
dicted, but no attempt has ever been
made by the county authorities to ap-
pretended him. Ho has been coming
and going between Fincastlo and Roam
oke ever since, and this is the first time
he has been molestcd. Tho negro he
shot now lives in Pocahontas. A tele-
gralu was sent to the authorities at
Fincastle yesterday asking if he was
wanted

attractive feature as the clever sketch
of Mrs. I. Dewitt Talmage, which is
accompanied by fine wood. Lieut. por-

it is difficult to mention everything that
is good. but the article by c. F. Kun

HAMPERS.

One of The most important journal
lstic achievements of the day is the pub
LEGATION in HARPER's MAGAZINE for
April of an article on 1.-THE Behring Sea
Controversy, by the Hon. +. j. Phelps,
late United States Minister to the Court
of st. James. So clearly are the state
ments of the points at issue set forth.
and so conclusive are the arguments
adduced in favor of decisive action on
the part OF our government, that-com-
ing as it does from an authority so emf
nently qualified to speak of these
matters-this article must be regarded
as the most valuable contribution vet
made to this International controversy.
General Lewal, ex-Minister of War for
France, writes for the same number of
the MAGAZINE an extremely picturesque
and entertaining account of the develop
ment of The French Army" which is
made still more attractive by series of
illustrations drawn by Thulstrup A
historical and descriptive paper on ''The
State of Wisconsin,, accompanied by
numerous portraits of public men, is
Villas, United States Senator from that
oIate. Inc HcJlOn IN TINS NUMBER In
cludes the continuation of the serials by
Charles Egbert Craddock and Thomas
Hardy, and short stories by Margaret
Crosby and Angelina Teal. The Ed
itorial Departments, under the control
of George William Curtis, William Dean
Howells, and Charles Dudley Warner,
are, as always, scholarly, entertaining,
and unsurpassed in the variety and APP
propriateness of the subjects presented
for discussion.

GAINESVILLE Gazette: The average
New Orleans negro is better citizen
by large odds than the stilletto
welding member OF the Malta.
More than once, however, there
have been from two to a dozen defense
less negroes shot in cold blood in Miss
issippi and Louisiana for no other crime
than voting the republican ticket. But
there was no foreign OF domestic gov
eminent to demand reparation, and the
secretary of state never sent message
to the governor ON their account asking
for protection TO others Of the same
race, and demanding that the perpetra
tors Of the outragcs be punished This
is the disadvantage of being an Amer
lean citizen on American soil
