Who would compose the railroad COM
mission in Virginia? Railroad men?
Men conversant with the complex,
intricate and difficult problems
of freight tariffs; familiar with the
actual operations of railroads whereby
the young industries of Virginia are
fostered and protected from the crush
ing pressure and encroachments of
older and wealthier corporations in
other States? No! The very creation
of railroad commission presages its
control by men actuated by sentiments
inimical to corporations, and OF the cali
Der of those in such State as Iowa,
where railroad construction is praotic-
ally suspended owing to Iestric tive leg
islation.

resentatives are not against Roanoke in
this matter.

HE WAS A FARMER.

But Ho Knew What to Do In q Squall
Just tho Same.
It was ladies' day of the Rochester
Yacht club, says the Democrat of that
city, and as one Of the yachts lit shall
be namcless for obvious rcasons) was
on its way out Of tho river toward the
lake, one of tho yachtsmen noticed
man of distinctly agricultural appear
ancc lolling on the pier, and apparently
watching the yachts with the curious
eye of q man who had never seen any
thing in the boat line other than q canal
boat.
''Sec that farmer over there" said
saw a yacht before. Let's take the Jay
out and have some fun with him." The
rest of tho crow assented and the cap
tain called out: Say, farmer, want to
go out for ride?"
"Nyal, dunno. Ant goin' out fur,
be yep"
ooh no; only going out for little
sail. There's no danger"
oval, bgosh, # yc ant goin' out fur
I'll jest hav' ter go yc." And he
climbed awllwardly aboard, sat down
in the cockpit, and looked around
curiously.
The breeze was fresh and the yacht
bowlcd along merrily. The farmer had
nothing to say, and after vainly trying
to kid him and finding that he was not
to be lsiddcd, the yachtsmcn left him
alone to enjoy the sail. After being out
for short time the squall that scared
so many Of the yachtsmen on ladies'
day came up, and on this particular
yacht, before the sailors knew what
had struck them, mainsnil halyard
snapped and it looked for n minute as if
the boat was going over. There were
a dozen orders, but before any of them
could be executed the farmer Skinned
up the mast, captured the flying hal
yard, and, bringing it to the deck, made
it fast with as perfect hitch us was
ever made on board n man of war.
Then he walked back to the cockpit
and sat down again.
After the squall had died down and
the excitement had subsidized the cap
tain said to him: you're no farmer.
You must have been q sailor"
"Wal," said the farmer, 81 was six
years in the navy"
And the yachtsmen had nothing to
say.

MODERN SAMSONS.

Many of tho Strong Men Kill Themselves
by Their Exertions.
The strong-man mania has subsidized
somewhat, says the Pittsburgh Chron-
icle-Tclcgraph. Three months ago it
was at high tide. Scores of opponents
were going about the country on the
admiration. They performed various
feats, some good and some hardly out
of the ordinary. All issued challenges
by the scores, many of them for noto-
riety. OF course this kind of business
developed numerous novices.. Men who
thought they were strong tried their
hands, and as soon as they cultivated
the slcight, which it must be admitted
is behind all actions of this kind, they
could accomplish clever feats. Each
large workshop developed it's strong
man.
heavyweight lifting is hardly much

opponents are pretty we'll developed.

the penalty of many. They exhausted
their vitality in the performance of
hcrculcan fcats.
Charles A. Bennett, of San Francisco,

with his hands alone, lifted fourteen
tons of iron in n minutes time, put up
15s4-pound bell, swung pair of 10
pound Indian clubs 1900 times in less
than an hour, and turned 2O5 back SOM
ersaults in fifty-four minutes and ten

years of age.
Richard A. Pennell, who twenty years
ago was one Of the strongest men in
America, and put up 2o1sl-pound

last years of his life, his vitality having
been impaired by overexcrtion.

AUGUSTUS MILLER DEAD.
The Result of an Overdose of

Augustus Miller, manager of Max
Meadows Inn, took an overdose of
morphine yesterday afternoon, from the
effects Of which death ensued last
night DR.. Brambelitt, of Pulaski. was
sent for in connection with the local
physicians. Whether the dose was
taken with suicidal intent cannot be
learned as yet.
Mr.. Miller was an Englishman by
birth. He came to Virginia from the
Colonnade Hotel. Philadelphia; had also
run Devon Inn, famous summer house
near Philadelphia. Before that he had
been in charge of the big hotel at Bay

"HERING,s FOLLY"

The engineering problems which are
connected with the building of Mr..
Hering's proposed interceptor are not
entirely technical in their nature.
Many are Of such simple character that
the ordinary citizen gifted with plain
common sense may back his judgment
against the world.
If Mr.. Herings interceptor presents
smaller angle of fall than the Tinker
creek sewer, it is an argument against
the interceptor.
If any portion of the city is lower
than the river at the point where the
interceptor is to strike it, it is an argu-
nient against the interceptor.
II the value of the ground through
which the interceptor is to pass
is indicative of hard and flinty
rock, it is an argument against the in
terceptor.
But, after all, the main argument is
one of expense. Some $40. 900 will have
been expended in absolutely necessary
work along the line of the natural
waterways before stroke can be
struck on the interceptor. The inter
ceptor will cost 100000. No safe esti-
mate for less amount has been made
which has allowed for the flinty lime
stones such as crop out at Henry street.
I'm the Roanoke and Southern cut, south
of Tazewell treet, and across the line
of the inter ceptor.
If Council should order tho building
of this sewer the entire amount appro-
priated at the bond election would have
been practically expended and not
house in Roanoke provided with sewer
thereby.
The United States expended S2.OOO,-
600 few years ago in constructing a
tunnel north of Washington for aque-
duct purposes. Not drop of water has
ever flowed through this tunnel into the
house Of single resident of Washing
ton. The taxpayers Of Washington had
to bear their share of the burden Will
the taxpayers of Roanoke relish the
payment Of $4,000 year interest on
100000 in bonds for a term of years
with the inevitable principle to be paid
in order to save Mr.. Herings reputation
as sanitary engineer from the rude
blasts Of adverse action? We think
not
II the Council wards contract on any
bid to build the Herring intcIceptor it
had better take extraordinary steps to
place the bonds to pay for the work No
prudent investor ever takes stock in a
public improvement the wisdom OF
which no would condemn as a private
enterprise.
II this interceptor is to be built it
will be known in the future not as Her.
ing's interceptor, but as HeriDg's Folly.

SENATOR STEWARDS VIEWS.
The Necessary Legislation on the
Water Question


As there seems to be some diff
ference of opinion relation 10 Sen
ator Stewards views on the water
quesi n, an APPEAL representative
recently secured synopsis of his
remarks and resolutions which are
lore given.
The Senator said that the irri-
cation law of the last session OF
Nevada Legislature was sufficient
for all purposes except enc. /.
contained q proviso denying the
right to condemn existing water
rights. Under such circumstan-
ces he said that it was necessary
to purchase all existing water
rights 10y agreement with the par
ties in order to put the law in
practical operation. lie offered a
resolution, which was adopted
providing for the appointment Of
a committee Of three on each Of
the following rivers, namely: Car
son, Truckee, Walker and Hum
boldt, to consult the farmers and
see If they are willing to fix a
price for their water rights at
which they would sell them for the
district when formed. He said if
they refused to sell, nothing effec
tive could be done until the Legis-
lature authorized the condemna-
ton of all existing water rights.
lie contended that it was essen
tial to the economic use OF water
that it should be owned by the If
rigation districts to be formed in
their municipal capacity. He
spoke at some length abOu- the
agricultural capacity OF the State
and particularly the opportunity
for irrigating by means Of the riv-
ers above-named that there was
land and water enough on those
rivers alone to su oport from half
a million to q million population.
He predicted that the water would
at some time be properly stored
and distributed, and said that it
depended upon the people them
selves whether it should be done
in the imme date future or by the
next generation.
AS to the resolution asking
Congress to donate the lands to
the States for irrigation purposes
he said he did not take any part
in the debate on that subject at
Salt Lake City; that if the lands
when granted could be properly
controlled and administered by
the State, they would be Of enor-
NOUS benefit IN aid of irrigation;
that he would act in the matter in
the Senate as the people Of New
ada desired; that if they believed
they could use the land when
granted for legitimate purpose OF
Irrigation and keep them out Of
the hands Of the metropolists, he
would cordially work for the
grant; that he desired every citi-
zen oi Nevada to think the mat
ter over and let him know their
general desire, and if the grant
was made what restrictions they
thought necessary to prevent
misuse Of the same.

MAUD s. TO BE BRED.
MT. Bonner. Selection of a Sire

-
 Since Robert Bonner made the announce ment that his renowned trotter, Maud s, 2:O9a, would be bred this season, there have been many surmises regarding what stallion would be selected for breeding. It has been reported that J. s. Coxey, owner of Acolyte, 2:21, has offered MT. Bonner $12, 1000 for the privilege of breed ing Maud s. to Acolyte, the produce to belong to Mir. Coxey when foaled. It is also understood that MT. Bonner has re- ceived from two others similar offers of $1, 1000. These are certainly big offers for foal that is yet unborn.
 Alcantara 2:23, Guy Wilkes 2:154, Aller ton 2:159, Prince Regent 2:16t and several other horses have been mentioned as prob able sires to which Maud will be bred.
 An exchange in @ recent edition contains the statement that this speculation still continues regarding what particular sire will be selected by the owner of the queen of the turf.
 There are many horsemen in this city who have heard of MT. Bonner's decision, which sets the matter at rest. His decision is that he will breed Maud toshis own young stallion Ansel (2:2O. AS far as is known, the opinion prevails that MT. Bon ner has made wise selection, as Anse! was but but T he is of fey' good family, as he was sired by the celebrated Electioneer. The dam of Ansel was by the thoroughbred horse Lexington. On account of the celebrity and age (seventeen years) of Maud s the result will be awaited with considerable interest,
