Milwaukee confirm rumor that Nolan
Hathaway, of Chicago, and Miss Henri
eta Bowen, the millionairess of Delphi,
Ind, were secretly married i'll that city
on Feb. s. Hathaway'S parents reside

AbDer II. Bowen, over whose estate
and the taxes thereon there has been
much sensatiOnali litigation at Delphi
during the past few weeks. The n0to-
riety occasioned by these reports in

to have a quiet wedding and not let
even their intimate friends into the
secret until the Delphi storm had sub
sided. The marriage is affirmed on the
authority of Rev. Sabin Halsey, of Wis
consin, who tied the knot. Mr.. Hath

Fifty Skeletons.

ST. LOUIS, April 15.-The finding Of
some fifty human skeletons near Cor
pus Christi, Tex, last week. has at
tracted wide attention, and many let
ters of inquiry and explanation have
been received at Corpus Christi. One
from William Payne, manager of the
Farmers Alliance at Whitewright,
Tex, seems to solve the mystery. He
says shortly before the close of the war
some eighty of his soldier comrades de-
serted in a body from Hunt county and
started for Mexico. Not one of these
men has been heard from since, and
Mr.. Payne thinks they were pursued,
captured and executed to a man.

Owing to the large amount of money to
pass the treasurer's hands from railroad
refunding and waterworks bonds his
official bond was fixed at sos, 600. Ad-
vertisements for bids for waterworks
were ordered, according to the plans of
the engineer. Salaries were voted to
the aldermen at S2 for each meeting,

that the mayor will refuse to reappoint
Chief Carey. who has been on the police

of wild and hilarious meeting last

THE FORGETFUL PUPIL.

A Bird Gives Good Advice to the Man
Who Caught Him.
There once lived man who possessed
such lovely garden that it was his
greatest pleasure to watch its growth.
as leaf and flower and tree daily seemed
to unfold to brighter bloom. One morn
ing, as he was taking his usual stroll
through the wcll-kept paths, he was
surprised to find that many of the bios
SONS were picked to pieces. 1t was not
long before he traced the mischief to q
little bird, which he managed to capture
and was about to kill, when it ex-
claimed:
wee tiny bird. My flesh is too little to
satisfy you. Set me free, and shall
teach you something that will be of
much use to J-ou."
II would like to put an end to Sou,"
replied the man, "for you are spelling
my garden, but as am always glad to
learn something useful, shall set you
free" And he opened his hand to give
the bird more air.
"Attention!'' cried the bird. ''Here
are three notices which should guide
you through life: do not cry over split
milk; do not desire what is unattain-
able; do not believe what is impossible"
The man was satisfied with the adj
vice and let the bird escape, but it had
scarcely gained it's liberty, when. from
high tree opposite, it exclaimed:
What silly mani The idea of let
ting me escape! If you only knew what
you have lost"
what have lost?" the man asked,
angrily.
"Why, if you had killed me, you
would have found inside of me a huge
pearl MS large us Il goose's egg, and you
would have been wealthy man for
ever"
Dear little bird" the man said in his
kindcst tones sweet little bird, will
not harm you. Come down to me, and
l will treat yon us if you were my own
child, and give you fruit and flowers all
day"
But the bird rcplied: What IL silly
man, to forget so soon the advice gave
you! told you not to cry over split milk,
and here you are worrying over what
has happened urged you not to de-
sire the unobtainable, and now you
wish to capture me again. And, final.
ly. babe you not to believe what is i'm
possible, and here you are imagining
that have huge pearl inside Of me,
when n goose's egg is larger than my
whole body. You ought to learn your
lessons better in the FUTURE" added the
bird as it flew fur away. Harper's

COUNTY ROADS.

The Commercial Association will dis
cuss the subject of county roads at the
regular meeting Tuesday night, the
leading paper to be presented by Capt.
M. M. Rogers.
There is no doubt that closer inter
course between the city and the sur
rounding country would be greatly 10
the advantage of both.
1t is remarkable how few country
people are to be seen on the streets of
Roanoke. There are many cities in the
rich agricultural sections of the south,
as large as Roanoke, that depend for
their support almost entirely upon the
trade with the adjacent farming popula-
tion and the handling of tho products of
the farm produced in limited territory.
Nobody hopes for the day when Roa-
noke will depend on this for its exist
ence, but this is rich agricultural re-
gion and there is no reason why Roam
oke should not become an important
market for farm products.
To build up such market here it is
necessary to have good roads leading
into the city. One of the great needs
of the agricultural class of Virginia is
better roads, and this matter ,hst 3
attracting general discussion through
out the State. Something practical and
interesting on this subject may be looked
for at the Commercial Association meet
iEg Tuesday night, and there should be
large attendance.
