have responded to the Governors
call for troops. OF these 600 are

AN N. & W. OFFICIAL SPEAKS.

Upon the receipt of the above COM
munication from THE SENTINEL s.
correspondent in regard to Roanoke
and Southern mail facilities, a report
er called upon Superintendent Barger,
of Roanoke and Southern Division
of the Norfolk and Western railroad
and asked his opinion of the state
ment of the government postal Off
cials concerning them.
PoPPYCoCK AND BosH.
"It is all poppycock and bosh, !"
said the Superintendent, "and the
truth is that the authorities do not
want to pay what the law allows for
carrying the mails.
"a mail service on the Roanoke and
Southern would be of infinite COM
mercial advantage to Winston Sd
lem and Roanoke and the towns
along the line.
"a letter sent from Winston at $50
a. m. has to go around by Green's
boro, Danville, Lynchburg and thence
to Roanoke, reaching there at 7:35
p. m. The same letter on the r. & S.
could get to Roanoke in five hours.
1t would leave Winston at IT'S a. m.
and reach Roanoke at 1915 D. m.
Thus it is evident the letter would 90
five hours and fifty-five minutes
quicker if the r. & S. mad the proper
mail facilities.
eff a letter leaves Winston by the
evening mail, it leaves at 1925 p. m.
and reaches Roanoke at $50 q. IN.
taking about twelve hours to go. A
letter leaving Winston at 1:5O p. m.
on the r. & S., would reach Roanoke
at p. m.

THE TOBACCO MARKET.
A Review of the Week-Revenue Col
IectiOnS.

A Review of the week-Revenue Col
The Tobacco Journal in its weekly
review of the Winston market says
that fairly good breaks for mid-sum-
mer weather this week have prevailed
the major part coming by rail and
the balance direct from the farmers
wagon. The stock was in good con-
dition, in lair handling order and up
to the usual standard as to quality.
Throughout the week there was a
strong demand for all good working
stock, and bidding was spirited when
ever pile of rich filters was reached.
These goods have held a strong posi-
ton all the year and are still in brisk
demand. Wrappers are also much
sought after on the warehouse floor,
but as heretofore but few of them
have been found in the 1891 crop.
From now on until the new crop
comes in sales are hot likely to be
heavy. There is sprinkling OF to-
bacco still unsold but not a great
deal.
The past week the rains have been
rather heavy and some reports of
inquiry to the growing crop come in.
Tobacco in low places is already be-
ginning to french to some extext.
However, if the seasons will be little
more regular from now on we see no
reason why the crop should not be a
fine one.
Manufacturers report a pretty fair
trade since last report. Orders are
coming in and are some larger than
early in the season. The following
revenue report shows good shipments
for the past week:

The Lean Year Ball.

The leap year ball at the opera house
last Thursday evening was the most
delightful party imaginable. The la
dies of the Concordia society are in
deed to be congratulated over the fiat
tering results which attended their eff
forts, for it was, both from social and
financial standpoint, most pronounc-
ed success. Watertown's 'four hun
tendance was SO large that dancing was
not exactly comfortable at all times,
the floor being too crowded. How
ever, in the midst of the good time
everybody had, this little unpleasant
ness was overlooked. 70 the gentle
men, especially, was the affair most
enjoyable one, the novelty of the ladies
doing all the honors being highly APP
preciable to them. They all hope their
fair escorts will "come again" The
programme consisted of fourteen well
arranged numbers, and when finished
several extras were danced. To the
general success of the ball must be
added the fine supper provided, which
well merited all the praise it received.
About..seventy- five couples were pres
ent, including several guests from
abroad.
The committees having the affair in
charge were as follows: Arrangements
Miss Maria LANCE, Miss Flora Bel
lack; eption-Mrs. j. w. Wigeen-
horn, Miss Maria LANCE, Miss Lena
jacob; Floor Mrs. w. F. Brandt,

and MISS Emma Mesler were united in
marriage at Ripon, Sunday evening,
January 10.
William Cebell has sold his house
and lot on Main street to John Young
who Will soon occupy it. The former
thinks of locating near Augusta.
Lake Mills is possessed of rare mu-
sIcai talent, both vocal and instrument
al, and 1t seems rather queer that more
O. our people do not 60 into training.
Mrs. Ellen Burdick Fargo was born
IN frankfort, Herkimer county, n. Y,
March E, 1881, and died at her home in
Lake Mills, January Is, 1892. She was
united In marriage with Robert Fargo,
in Lake Mills, March 80, 1858 Two
children, ii. B. Fargo, who is engaged
IN the banking business at Deerfeld,
and Walter, who died at the age of 8,
were the result of their marriage.
The following premiums are offered
by +. b. Fargo & Co. to the National
Creamery Butter-makers' and Factory
Cheese makers association, whose
meeting will be held in Madison in
February: A beautiful gold watch,
valued at SIS, for the best 80 H. tub of
butter made at any time, colored with
Fargo's color and sailed with Genesee
salt; color used to be ordered direct
from F. B. Fargo & Co. in no less than
two gallon lots by those competing for
this premium, and if this tub scores
the highest number of points of any
butter on exhibit, they will give a 500
gold piece in addition.-Leader.

Best Way to Stamp Letters.

An observer watched a young woman
putting stamp on an envelope. She
moistened the back of the stamp with
her tongue and then stuck ition the en-
velope. ''That's the way" said the
observer; edo all you can to send that
letter to the dead letter Office. 1t is
just as easy to moisten the envelope
and put the stamp on that way, bat
nine-tenths OF the people whom know
always moisten the gum on the back of
the stamp, and by SO doing remove
half the adhesive and leave the stamp
in danger Of slipping off the envelope
as soon as it gets dry. | suppose hun
dreds upon hundreds Of letters have
gone to the dead letter office as result
of wetting the stamp with the tongue
instead of wetting the corner of the
envelope. Besides, the latter is much
the cleaner ."-NeW York Times.

Death of Robert G.. Herbst

Monday Mr.. and Mrs. William
Herbst, of the Fifth ward, received the
sad intelligence of the death of their
son Robert G. Herbst, which occurred
on a train of the Union Pacific
railway, at Rawlins, Wyoming, last
Saturday evening. Deceased left
his home here for the far west four
years ago last September, for the bene-
fit of his health, being troubled with
lung disease. He was at Los Angeles,
California, and vicinity, for three years,
but finding no relief he tried other eli
mates, the last one being Oregon, from
which state he was on his return home
when overtaken with death, among
strangers and in strange land. His
family find consolation in the belief
that kind friends administered to his
wants during his last moments, and
everything was done to alleviate his
sufferings ere his departure for the
other shore. Mr. Herbst's age was 80
years, months and % days. He was
unmarried. The stricken parents have
the keenest sympathy in their sorrow
and affliction. The remains are expect
ed to arrive here tomorrow
