FARNvILLE, Va, March 9.-The intelli.
gence OF the very serious illness of the
Rev. DIR. j. +. Latimer, of Hampden-Sid-
ney College, received here to-day was a
shock TO the entire community. The dis
tingulshed gentleman has been sick for a
month, but fears that he would not recover
were not felt until to-day His condition
tonight is reported critical in the extreme.
MIR. John X. Wilson continues Ill.
During the recent very bad weather the
roads became altogether impossible for
wagons even mcagreiy loaded. Hence a
yeritsble wood-famine was experienced.
especially among the poorer classes Of
Farmville. Major Wicker went TO Rich
mond and consulted the authorities of the
Farmyille and Powhatan Railroad Com
pany with reference to supplying the poor
with fuel. The company readily expressed
their willingness to deliver wood from
along their line free Of charge, and yester-
day whole train-load was brought into
town and distributed among the needy.
Such condition of the public roads was
never before experienced in the history of
Prince Edward.
A war is being waged by the Christian
women of Farmville against King Alcohol.

Don Pasquale he renders with Miss Deeca,
and which is the feature OF to-nights

Allthe numbers on the programme, yocal
