\ Negro Pauper Tired of Life Thinks the
Devil is After Him.
a negro man named Lewis Hicks. n
pauper at the almshousc, attempted
suicide Saturday. His mind has been
in Il chaotic condition ever since he was
sent there, and he has given the super
intendent no little trouble. Saturday
he ran out on the edge of a high porch
from the second story and cried to Mr..
Chiffon that the devil was after him
and said he intended 10 jump off. Mr..
Chiffon was too quick. however, and sue
ceeded in pulling the negro in the
house.
Mr.. Chiffon has heard that Hicks
killed his wife in North Carolina several
years ago. and believes this has some
thing to do with Hicks actions.

THE press of New York has accom-
plished no moro popular movement of
recent years or of so much Importance as
the Sunday opening of tho Metropolitan
Museum. That wonderful institution
of art has been open six days in tho
week when the busy throng of New
York life, of the toiling thousands, were
unable, on account of their duties, to
enter it's doors, The first opening on
Sunday was attended by a great crowd
Of people. Every one was well behaved
and quiet. There is no reason why the
places of such character should not be
open on Sunday for tho education of the
masses. The old Puritan idea of Sab
bath is passing. Any educational work
which will elevate the mind is just as
proper on Sunday as any other day in
the week.

THE CHARGES RErUTED.

The statements which appear on the
first page of THE TINES this morning
contain the completest possible refuta-
tion of the charges made By the Roam
oke Herald of Sunday morning against
Mr.. James ~. Pugh. 1t is complete
and uneuuivocal establishment OF his
innocence.
How paper could allow itself to
make such charges on such fimsy foun-
dation of fact and rumor passes under
standing. The motives for its action
will in time be placed before the public,
but in order that there may be no en-
barrassment Of legal proceedings, TIE
TINES will maintain silence upon them.
That public sentiment has been with
Mr.. Pugh in this unwarranted attack
upon his character and reputation has
been manifested in a hundred ways.
Expressions of confidence in him have
come unsolicited from every direction.
He has borne the contumely thrust upon
him with becoming calmness and can
say with the great playwright:
HE who steals my purse steals trash,
but he who robs me of my good name
robs me of that which makes him moth
ing rich but leaves me poor indeed

a SMALL STRIKE.

Fifty Men Quit Work Because They Were
not Paid or Saturday.
About fifty men employed by the city
to work on the streets went out en- a
strike yesterday morning. The cause
of the trouble is that no arrangements
were made Saturday to pay the men off.
The Roanoke Savings Bank has been
paying the men, but through some mis-
take no money was placed there for
that purpose on Saturday, and yester-
day morning the men refused to go to
work. +. c. Shade had sixteen men,
j. NJ. Knight, twenty. and Mr. Steele.
fifteen, all of whom quit. except four or
five who remained with Mr.. Knight.
1t is expected that the men will he
paid off to-day, when work will be re-
sumcd.

WHY IT MOVES.

The Nation Of New York contains an
editorial on the removal of the Norwich
Lock Manufacturing Company from that
city to Roanoke and says:
"This involves probable withdrawal
of population from Norwich of from
1000 to 1900 taxpayers, consumers AMI
good citizens, whose place it will not be
easy to supply. The reason assigned
for this action by the Bulletin is that
the company may obtain cheaper sup
plies OF pig iron, brass and coal"
But in continuing it's comments the
Nation ascribes the causes of the higher
prices of pig iron, brass and coal to ex-
orbitant tariff taxes, and continues in
this strain at considerable length. Now
ii the editor of the Nation would como
down to Roanoke he would quickly see
that tariff taxes have about as little to
do with the change of location of the
Norwich Lock Manufacturing Company
as the weather phases on the back side
OF the moon.
Pig iron is cheap in Roanoke because
the iron mines which make pig iron are
visible from the city; because the lime
stone which furnishes tho lime used in
making pig iron is under foot; because
the coal and coke which arc used in the
furnaces is near at hand and hundreds of
miles nearer here in Roanoke than in
Norwich, Conn. The Norwich factory
moves to Roanoke because its raw mate
rails are hundred Of miles nearer and
because the Southern market, which it
aspires to reach, lies at its feet.
The protective principle may not be
fawless. 1t is not fawless, but it is
never going to be overthrow by false
