TWO NEGROES ARRESTED
For Having I'm Their Possession Two Kegs
of Unstamped Liquor.

For Having In Their Possession Two Kegs
of Unstamped Liquor.
Charles Craig and William Smith,
both colored, were arrested last night at
IIaislip's store on Commerce street, by
Sergeant Jones and Officer Bower,
charged with having two kegs of I'm
stamped liquor in their possession.
Craig is an old negro and lives in Frank
lin county Smith lives there also, but
works as a brakeman on the Norfolk
and Western railroad. Craig loaded his
wagon with butter and other country
produce yesterday morning and started
for Roanoke.
Smith came with him and brought a
four-and a-half-gallon keg of corn whis-
key. Another keg containing the same
amount was brought to Mr. IIaislip.
Everything went well until they landed
in Roanoke. The officers usually watch
out for Shooting Creek wagons, and
kept sharp eye on This one. AS soon
as the kegs were discovered both were
arrested and locked up. Both men pro-
test their innocence and say they have
not violated the revenue in the least.
True, the liquor was unstampd, but
the tax had been piid and the ackages
contained each less than five gallons.
They VIII be given hearing to-day by
Comm ssioner Rhode. @

Brazil a Progressive and Prosperous
Countrywide Republic Failure
Reconstruction Its Greatest Fault
How the Argentine Republic Became

Mr.. b. A. Rives, who returned Tues
trip, was busy yesterday shaking hands
with old friends. He sailed from New
port News August % for Brazil. Para
was the first Brazilian port he touched.
Going from there to number of smaller
ports along the Para river he arrived at
Rio Janerio September 10, werere he
remained till January 1st.
In an interview with a TIMES reporter
last night he gave briefly his Impress
ions Of South American countries.
Brazil" said he, ais quite progress
i've country and is making rapid strides
in the way of railroad building. There
is immense immigration from Europe,
largely from Germany and France, and
the country seems to BIO prosperous.
1.-THE United States or the States as
Brazilians say, is their ideal govern
ment, and they are disposed to place
confidence in any one from here. There
is great effort to do as Americans do.
"The republic seems to be failure,
for it hardly seems possible that the
government could have been worse than
now when the emperor ruled. There
are no free elections according to the
American idea, and everything is
manipulated by cliqucs and rings.
Brazil has some fine schools, but the
wealthy people educate their children
in the schools of Europe, and it is not
unusual to find and ordinary business
man who speaks lluently three or four
languages.
1.-The greatest fault of Brazilians is
procrastination. They never do any
thing to-day that they think they can
do tomorrow, and go on putting off
things from day to day. The climate is
the cause of the easy-going disposition,
and before left | was willing to take
things easy, too
Mr.. Rives went to Bucnos Ayres from
Rio, arriving there January 6. "The
Argentine Republic" said Mr.. Rives, 'is
bankrupt as result of the imitation of
paper currency by a corrupt government

wild speculation.
''Buenos Ayres and Rio are modern
cities, with all the Improvements in the
way Of gas, electric lights, water works,

seen, and Buenos Ayres is probably the
best policcd city in the world"
