Accident to e Horse.

A very painful accident occurred to
horse at the Jefferson street crossing
of the railroad yesterday morning. A
two-horse lumber wagon was being
driven across the railroad, whea the
hoofs of one Of the horses caught in
the space between the rails and wood
work of the crossing, and the animal
was thrown to the ground with his foot
under him. A large crowd soon col
lected and every effort was made to re-
lieve the animals suffering without
avail. Finally Ratchet was procured
and the wood was cut away from the
rail. The horses foot was badly hurt
and for time it could hardly walk.

To Paw CITY EMPLOYEES.

Tho recent resolution passed by the
Council requiring all employees of the
city, not salaried officers, too be paid
twice a month in cash will be put into
effect next month, beginning with De-
cember /.
Treasurer Thomas said yesterday
that he and the engineer were making
arrangements for this manner of paying.
The roll will be furnished by tho city
engineer and the money placed in en-
velopes. Each mans name with the
amount he is to receive will be written
on the envelope and when payday
comes all that is nee sssary will be to
call the names. and as the person re-
spends he will touch the pen, receive
his money and pass on.
This system of paying will BIO hailed
with delight by the city employees, who
have heretofore had to go through a
long line of red tape procedure and
carry their checks to the bank next
day.

TOBACCO MANUFACTURES.
The Industry Likely to Receive an I'm

The Industry Likely to Receive an I'm
petus from the t. & S.
Fishburne Brothers. proprietors of the
large smoking tobacco factory on Center
street, received forty-seven hogsheads
of tobacco yesterday from s. P. Holsey,
Of Lynchburg. The consignment was
loaded on three cars and aggregated
5s,256 pounds. 1t was moved by the
Roanoke Transfer Company.
The factory is now running to it's full
capacity and is packing about 500 pounds
day. Various grades of granulated
smoking tobacco are turned out, some of
which have attained wide reputation.
The trade is continually increasing, and
the owners are thinking of increasing
the capacity. The factory has lately
been fitted up with steam heating, and
no trouble is now experienced in keep
ing the tobacco at a proper temperature.
Mr.. L. j. Phelps is the general agent
Tor the concern, and said yesterday that
the business had increased SO per cent.
over last year. He is very hopeful for
the tobacco interest in Roanoke as soon
as the Roanoke and Southern is opened
and says his firm will then begin the
manufac ture of plug and chewing to-
bacco. 1--WE are only working about
twenty or twenty-five hands. 1t does
not require great deal of labor or
machinery to manufacture smoking
tobacco, and as we have established a
large trade in this line, we confine our
selves to that branch alone. If we
decide to manufacture chewing tobacco,
however, the factory will have to be
made much larger and moro machinery
put in. 1t would then require about
1875 to $50 hands to manufacture the
amount we could carry"
The process for manufacturing and
packing smoking tobacco is very sim pie,
yet it requires considerable time and
patience. The dry leaf is first placed on
table made of a strong wire sieve and
failed with paddles made of tho same
material. Mono of it is ground, and con-
sequently very little dust is made. The
tobacco drops through the sieve to the
floor whence it is gathered and stored
in bins. Tho flavoring process is all
done by hand. Tho ground tobacco is
spread upon tho floor and on this is
scattered the flavoring powder, and then
the liquid mixture.
After this process it is gathered into
bins and packed as required.
Tho manufacture of tobacco on a
large scale will soon engage tho alton
tion of the people. Tho Fishburnes are
tho pioneers in this industry and at one
time manufactured large guam
tity of chewing tobacco, but find
ing the market in which to pur-
chase the raw leaf inaccessible, they
have only in tho last three or four years
manufactured smoking tobacco. Sew
eral other prominent gentlemen are
interested in tobacco manufacture and
are only waiting the opening of tho
Roanoke and Southern, when they will
