& Bloody TRAGEDY.

In full view Of the village Of Old
town. Nd. near Cumberland, on Mon.
day last, terrible tragedy was en-
acted at the canal locks opposite
Garrett Luteman, q clerk in the store
of John ". CardeT, Shot and instantly
killed VIM. Foley, wounded VIM W..
Carder. son Of the proprietor of the
store, and then turning the revolver
against himself emptied two chambers
into his own body and followed this
by cutting his own throat. Carder
and Luteman will die.
Luteman says that he went 10 the
store determined 10 do just what
he did do and does not regret his act.
The two men, he says, pers!stently
dunued him for money which he
owed. and threatened to do me up.
Nobody accepts this statement of
''dunning' as having any foundation
in fact, and the conclusion Is that
Luteman became suddenly insane.
1t is known, however, that the princi-
pals in the tragedy have not been
friends for week past.
Luteman was so quick with his use
of the revolver that people in the
store at the time had no time to in
terfere to prevent the murders. Mr..
Foley was a lumber dealer. He was
81 wears of age He leaves Il widow
and eleven children. All the people
concerned III the tragedy were well

ONE WAY OF LOOKING AT 1T.

Hon. Benton McMillin, OF Tennes-
see, is always entertaining in his
speeches, whether in Congress or out
Of it. He is well remembered in Shop
herdstown, where he made some for
chile remarks on the issues of the cam
paign a year or two ago. But he
never gave more interesting statistics
than those he produced recently be-
fore the Young Mems Democratic
Club of Boston. Speaking of the Bill
lionaire Congress, Mr.. McMillin said :
Besides this Congress the e1trava-
gance OF all others sinks into insigniti-
canoe. \ billion eight million spent
in two years is its record. \ sum so
great it has TO be divided up and con-
sidered in sections and by comparison
to comprehend it. 1t is $40 q minute
for all the time since the Declaration
of Independence was signed. 1t $50
for every hour since the Saviour was
born into the world. You have all
heard of the prodigal son. His squan-
dering was nothing when compared
to theirs. If he could rise from the
tomb he would blush because he had
been outdone. He would stand forth
as parsimonious as Shylock when COM
pared to these. And ] apologize to
the shade of that poor squanderer for
doing him the injustice to compare
him to this Congress, He squandered
only his own inheritance, not that of
others. Besides, he repented, while
they never did,

1T is COMING,

The people of the Virginias are not
alone in the belief that their section
is upon the eve of an industrial era
that is absolutely unparalleled in the
history of our country. The saga
cious men OF the North have found
out that the South is the place for
fortune making, and they are in
vesting their money here with a firm
faith that great returns will come
back to them Indeed, the whole
country is awakening to our advan-
tages. and the President of the Jul
ted States voiced the common senti-
ment last week when he referred to
the vast business future before us.
At Roanoke President Harrison spoke
as follows:
"FeHolc- Citizens: desire to thank
Won very sincerely for this friendly
greeting. The State of Virginia is
entitled, think, to high estimation
among the States for its great history
for the contribution 1t has made to
the great story of our common coun-
try. For personal reasons | have
great affection for Virginia. 1t is the
State of my fathers. | am glad this
morning to congratulate you upon
the marvellous development which
has come. and the greater which Is
coming to your Commonwealth. Aou
not only have an illustrious story be
hind YOU but before you, prospects OF
development in wealth and prospect
ty in all that makes a great State.
such as never entered into the lnagl-
nation of those who laid the founda
ton of the Commonwealth. LCheerS.I
You are arousing now to realization
of the benefits of diversity of indus
tries. In the olden time, Virginia
was a plantation State. | hope she
NAV never cease to have large agri-
cultural interests. 1t is the founda-
ton of staple society. But | rejoice
with you that she has added to agri-
culture the mining Of coal and iron,
and bringing these from their beds Is
producing all the products that enter
into the uses Of life. In this Is the
secret of that great growth illustrat-
ing what | see about ne here and the
promise of future which none OF us
can fully realize. In all of these
things we have common interest,
and | beg TO assure you that in every
thing that tends to the social order of
your people and the development and
increased prosperity of the State OF
Virginia, am in most hearty sympa-
thy with you ALL [Cheers.]

Our Snake Story.

At McKeesport, Pa, few days
ago. while workmen were digging
near the hillside above town, they
struck at the depth OF twenty-five
feet a peculiar-looking body that had
been unearthed by the blasting of
the rock. 1t at first resembled vein
of dark clay, or shale, but, on close
examination, it was found that it was
covered with scales.
The interest of the wOrkmen was
aroused, and by careful digging they
finally unearthed a stone body TWEEN
ty-eight feet long and tapering at both
ends. \ close examination showed
it was that of an enormous reptile
that had become petrified. The tail
end was first found, and twenty-five
feet of it have been taken out. but
the head is yet Embedded in the rock.
The fossil rested in a assure in the
solid rock, and about it We're also dis
covered dead leaves. The remains
have been seen by a number Of re-
sponsible people, who will take care
OF them for further examination.

The postoffice at Piedmont, this

Four Americans and one Italian
were drowned in Laurel creek, near
Webster Court House, few nights

Sim. Johnson, colored, who com
mitted n criminal assault on Eva Bal

SNYDER was not injured.
State Surt. Morgan, has announced
thai this. the Second Congressional
District is entitled 70 two scholarships

HOW THEY STARTED.

The Roanoke (Va.) Times publishes
brief answers from about fifty of the
most successful residents of that city
in response to the question, How
did YOU earn your first $100? These
answers are full Of encouragement TO
the youth of the country, for, as the
Times remarks, mot one OF them be
travs the sign of the silver spoon.
The list is headed by Mr.. Charles G.
Eddy, the able and energetic vice
president of the Norfolk and Western
Railroad Company. He earned his
first money by carrying newspapers
i'm Milwaukee, Wis, and his first 800
was saved in a railroad Office where
he began work at 1888 month.
Col. A. Pope, general freight agent OF
the Norfolk and Western, began earn
ing his first 800 as messenger boy
in the teleg aph office at Macon, Ga,
and i'm four months he became a tele-
graph operator. Mr.. j. S. Simmons,
president of the Virginia Real Estate
Exchange, and one Of the wealthiest
men in Roanoke, is a Marylander by
birth. He made his first 800 CLERK
ing in a store for $50 for the first year
and $75 for the second" Mr.. =. l..
Terry, another solid citizen, "clerked
in a dry goods store in Big Lick for
$40 a year and board the first year
$50 the second and 1926 the third. At
the end of the third year he had saved
his first $780, State Senator Henry
s. Trout, who is also president of the
First National Bank OF Roanoke,
made his first $3.50 the first year after
the close of the war working on his
fathers farm. OF this he sent SO to
a man in Missouri who loaned him
So to come home on after he was
taken prisoner by the United States
soldiers. Mr.. II. g. Eckhotf, u lead
ING grocer, accumulated his first 500
as a porter in q store in Washington,
at the same time supporting four sis
tiers, his father and mother having
died when he was but fourteen years
of age. No wonder Roanoke is forg-
ING ahead in wealth and population
with such hustlers at the helm.

Busy Times in the Valley Of Virginia.

The Valley of Virginia will be the
scene of greater activity this spring
and summer than the most far sight
ed enthusiasts OF ten, even five years
ago thought within the range Of pos
sibility. Last summer witnessed Il
marked Increase in the amount Of
freight shipped through the Valley
and the various land sales proved
that there was IA widespread interest
in town properties. Since then the
negotiations OF many land companies
have resulted in the transfer Of I'M
portaut Industries 10 homes in the
Valley. Many of these are well
enough advanced to make it possible
to determine the day when steam will
be turned on and finished products
be made that formerly were procured
from the North.
All along the liue of the Norfolk
and Western from Hagerstown TO
Roanoke, the traveller will see build
ings in various stages OF completion.
Car upon car will pass him loaded
with building supplies, heavy ma
chinery and raw materials. Nearly
all of the buildings that are under
construction are OF huge proportions
and almost every one OF them will
permit the working side by side of
hundreds of men. When these en-
terpriSes are in successful operation
a large number of smaller ones will
be attracted for wants viii arise with
the coming into the Valley of an
army of workmen, which present IA
cilities are entirely inadequate 10 pro-
vide for. The smaller concerns will
have a successful future beyond Il
doubt and they will add largely to
the material wealth OF the State.
Their coming should be encouraged.
Ii is the town that observes the best
proportion between large and small
industries, that will thrive best within
its confines, that will make the most
rapid and substantial progress That
town will he best protected against
the ups and downs incident to trade
and in that town the entire suspen-
sion of all manufacturing business will
never be recorded, a. it is in so many
places that are given over wholly TO
some one industry. Virginia .laRgtNc-

Model Motive Power.
The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad

The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad
Company has recently placed in ser
lice on its fast trains between New
York, Philadelphia, Baltimore and
Washington three new engines which
are doubtless the finest and fastest
ever built in this country. These
new flyers have driving wheels SIX
feet six inches high. and cylinders 70
inches by "a. The large cylinders
give them tremendous power and
the high drivers protect the machine
ry from the rack and strain incident
10 driving smaller engines at great
speed. There l.; practically no limit
to the speed to which these new mar
wells NAV be driven, and they skim
over the rails as smoothly as Il swal-
low over Il lake.
Another recent addition to the mo-
tive power of the company Is CON
signment of eight powerful ten wheel
passenger engines, designed for SER
vice on the mountain divisions.
These are the heaviest ten wheel en-
arines ever constructed, weighing
ciyrv-seyen and one-half tons. They
have driving wheels six feet two
inches high and cylinders q inches by
26. One of these machines performs
the work heretofore requiring two OF
the ordinary class, and they take the
heavy through express trains up the
mountain grades quickly and with
perfect ease.
The Mt. Clare shops of the company
have recently completed an order for
ten switch engines of the highest
type, and sufficiently powerful to
make mp d train equal to the full
drawing power of consolidation
freight engine Also three new heavy
eight wheel passenger engines, hay
inc driving wheels five feet eight
inches, and cylinders twentyinchcs by
twenty-four. These engines are now
doing excellent work; they are very
powerful and susceptible OF great
speed.
In addition TO the foregoing the
Company has now under construction
at its Mt Clare Shops ten powerful
ten wheel engines designed for fast
freight service and for heavy passen
ger trains OH occasion, also twelve
consolidation freight engines of great
power.
These additions to its motive power
are in line with the other great i'm
provements constantly being made in
the general betterment OF the Il. 4 o.
property by its present management,
which have been noted by the press
from time to time, and the rapid aug
mentation of the passenger traffic of
the Company indicates that the pub
lie is quick 10 recognize the present
and constantly increasing efficiency
OF its train service.
