began his last ride on earth lying in the
cool depths of the undertakers ice-box.
As Mrs. Timmins' cab turned into
Washington street she met a hearse,
but not until she had reached the un-
dcrtaker's establishment was her sus-
picion transformed into certainty by
being told that her fathers body was
already on its way TO the crematory.
Mrs Timmins was long-headed
woman. She knew the uncertainties Of
cab transportation through the crowded
streets below Canal. and dismissing her
cab at the Chambers street station of
the Third avenue elevated, she was
soon speeding on her way to the Long
Island city ferry.
This she reached just as boat was

Long Island side, she threw herself into
the carriage nearest at hand, crying
out:

IL was not many minutes before Mrs.
Timmins became aware of the fact that
She horse was next TO worthless and
could scarcely be dashed into respecta-
BILE trot. Mrs. Timmins was nearly
frantic. Every minute her head was
thrust out of the window To urge the
hickman To greater speed. There was
but one consoling thought, the hearse
itself might get blocked or might have
missed a boat
As again and again her head was

There had been IRE next door 10 the

the Inspectors had pronounced the wall

two brothers were taken out from the

coroner's permit was given To remove
him TO a neighboring undertaker's es-

Consequently Mrs Timmins gave or
ders that Immediately after the cor

be removed TO her residence in Harlem,
but as the officers of the cremation So
ciety held the solemnly executed direc-
ton and authorization ot their late
friend and associate to incinerate his
remains, they were advised by the
counsel of their corporation that such
an instrument would justify them in
taking possession of the remains at the
very earliest moment possible and re-
moving them to the crematory.
Warned by the undertakers of Mrs.
Timmins' threatened interference, they
resolved not to risk even the delay

HORSE THIEVES ACTIVE.

Another Horse Stolen in Salem and
People Getting Reused.
Another horse has been stolen, and
this time from the city itself.
A thief, either yesterday morning be-
fore day or late the previous night, stole
a large gray horse from Thomas Mitch
ell, drayman of this city. There is
no clue to the thief or the stolen prop
erty.
1t is getting to be the general opinion
that there is an organized gang of horse
thieves in Roanoke county, and probably
in the vicinity of Salem, and this
opinion is warranted by the number
of horses which have been stolen in this
county and the adjacent counties within
the last month or two.
Public sentiment is getting stirred

THE PRIZE DRILL.
The Jeff Davis Rifles Turn Out
Strong Team.
THE ROANOKE TIMES BUREAU.
HOTEL LUCERNE, SALEM, VA. :


The jeff Davis Rifles gave their prize
drill at the town hall Thursday night
The hall was nearly filled with good
audience, among whom were many
of the beautiful young ladies of the city
The Salem Silver Cornet Band was
out in full force, and the members were
seated on the front row of seats of the
auditorium, and from time to time dur
ing the intermissions of the drilling
they discoursed sweet music.
At s o'clock the Rifles, twenty strong,
marched up the hall in single file. COM
manded by Capt. G. Il. Strouse, and
First Lieutenant w. FL. King.
The company was drilled by the cap
tain and lieutenant and showed off we'll.
They were in full dress uniform and are
fine looking lot of soldiers. In fact,
they were so we'll drilled and APP
preached so near the real wartime sol
der that large middle-aged lady, who
sat next to TIMES representative,
lodged and exhibited symptoms of o
growing desire to get under the seat in
front, when the company was COM
manded to take aim and fire, BLANK
cartridges being used). She said she
was alive during the war.
After the general drill by the com
pany, the candidates for the gold medal
were ordered to the front, and Captain
Strouse appointed as the judges Lieut.
enant-C Colonel Binford, Of Portsmouth,
of the Fourth Virginia Regiment, who
was in the city: Captain T. G. Burdette
and Judge Winfield Griffin.
Then began the competitive drill be-
tween the following members of the
company: Lynch, Palmer, Gordon.
Wells, Martin, Lakewood, Carper, f..
o. Webber and the two Stovers.
The judges decided that three errors
drop competitor from the lists and
after each error the competitor should
drop back temporarily.
The interest in the contest became
more evident at this juncture, and the
minutest movements of the competi-
tors we're closely observed. Several Of
the boys were forced to step out Of the
ranks emporarily by slight mistakes,
and finally the judges announced that
the contest had narrowed down to Ser
geants Hazlewood and Slower and Pri-
Vate Carper.
These three were then put through a
rigid course of drilling, the audience
frequently applauding tho competitors
on their ability.
Capt. StrOuSe announced, after con-
sultation with the judges, that the gold
medal for the best drilled man in the
jeff Davis Rifles had been awarded to
Private Carper. Judge Griffin awarded
the medal in an eloquent speech, clos
ing with the peroration, "Be true to
your colors, your country and your God,
and it follows 'as the day the night,
thou cans't not then be false to any
man."
Capt. Burdett, in few happy words,
awarded medal to Private f. O. Web
Der for greatest improvement in military
tactics in the last month.
Privates Carper and Weber were
promoted respectively to second and
third corporal of the company.
