Tie sad but not unexpected news OF
the death of Mr.. Jacob Haun, the well
known cattle dealer OF Narrow Passage,
reached this place on Wednesday few
hours after his death which occurred at
8 o'clock that morning. Mr.. Haun had
been suffering with heart trouble for
some time. but it was only within week
or two of hs death that it assumed a
dangerous tendency, he having been IN
town on Friday of last week. Mr. Ham
was probably as widely known as any ci'l-
zen of the county, bis business having
brought him INTO intimate relationship
with the cattle rasers Of this and Rock
inoham county for number of years
Probably no one was more popular or
more universally liked than "Uncle"
Jake or Daddy" Haun as he was aifrc'
tionately called by every body, and hiS
kindly face will be sadly missed.
Mr.. Hauu was one Of the passengers
who went down in the terrible wreck OF
the Narrow Passage railroad bridge on the
night of March 9th, 1916, aud it was I'M
doubtedly from the shock received at that
time that his heart trouble originated
Mr.. Haun was in his 62nd year, and caves
widow and seven children to mourn The
loss of the kindest and best husband and
father

The Norfolk pirginian makes the fol-
lowing sensible and timely remarks,
which We cordially endorse, and CON-
mend to the pcrusil OF orr frends:
A mater Of rijicnlc of the Sonth has
been the converslncy Of its people with
national politics and utter neglect of
domestic interests. That distinguished
ciiiz-n OF Massachusetts,, Caleb Cushing,
once said to the writer that the "boys OF
Virginia knew the Constitution from to
z, but were utterly ignorant of home
c ,onomics.' 1t was a just criticism
The rirginidn has directed attention tC
some of these failures rs to homo affairs
and there is health and prosperity IN at
teution to the simple matter of the county
roads.
Fifty years ago there was some excus
for bad roads, for our country was poor
Now that it is rich there is no excuse.
A good road is always to be desired
and a source Of convenience and comfor
to every traveller.
Good roads attract population, as wei
as good schools and churches Good road
improve property, SO that it is said farr
lying FIVE miles from market, connectt,
by bad road, is of less value than a
equally good farm lying ten miles ava
from market connected by good road.
A larger load can be drawn by on
horse over a good road, than by tw
over a bad one.
Good roads encourage the greater eN
change of products and commodities b'
tween one section and another.
Good roads are of great value TO raj
roads as feeders.

Mr.. Jack Hoover, who resides on Mar

Mr.. French, of this place, while on bis
way home one evening several weeks ago
was tremendously surprised, not TO say
horribly frightened, at the sight Of a very
large wild cat in field about a mile from
town. Jack says he thought his Ia t hour
had come, and being anxious to bid his
family an eternal farewell began calling
at the top of his voice for Becky to come
and bring the children, forgetting that
they were over a mile away. Then sud
denly thinking of his logs, rather short but
good ones, be lit out with tremendous
burst of speed The town cat, being as
badly frightened as Jack, commenced us
ing all four of its legs in the opposite
direction and the result is that both are
still living.
