the civil damage act, allows night

A man in history and the same man
in real life are sometimes as different
as fact and fiction. 1t is thus frequent
ly necessary to revise our ideas of the
heroes of our childhood. An old doctor,
now in his SEVENTEEN year, speaking of
Crockett, the Kentucky pioneer, says:
NO man has ever been more grossly
caricatnrcd than Davy Crockett.

of bucksl<in shirt and coonsllin cap as

manner, in conformity with tho styles
of his time. He was of Scotch-Irish de-
scent, and n consistent member of the
Presbyterian church. He was great
hunter and n fine shot, and probably q

THE sIrTING-DowN DANCE.

boy or girl in such beautiful place
as one of the islands of Samoa and not
to play, would be impossible Only
the games must be very different from
those we are used to Mt home.
If you are boy you would like to go
fishing, and you will find lots of boys
ready to go with you; but instead OF IA
pole and line and hook, you need only
the branch of a tree.
You must take off your pretty clothes,
Tor these children wear only n strip Of
cloth wound round the waist and hips,
and the way they fish is to go right out
into the water The bay is not deep
and the water is very warm. They
each take branch of tree, and then
form two lines q hundred feet apart
Single file, they go directly ont into the
water, and gradually turn towards each
other, till the first boys of each line
meet about waist deep, while the boys
at the other ends are only few steps
from the shore. Then they all turn
about to face the shore, and begin
slapping the water with the branches
and shouting and laughing and jump
ing, and walking up to the shore
This friglhtcns all the fish inside the
half-circle they have made, and they
brighten them more and more till they
drive them up into water SO shallow
they cannot swim.
If you are girl you like to dance,
and so do the Samoan girls, but they
dance with their hands instead of their
feet. They all sit down together and
sing and wave their hands and clap, and
swing their heads in way that is very
pretty, even if it is not quite like our
dancing at home.
The great game for boys and girls to-
gether is to build ship. On the Sa-
moan islands all the natives arc great
sailors. The children get together and
spend days in building u ship. The
boys do the hard work, and the girls
make the ropes from vines and bark,
and gather flowers for the rail and
Prov. Then when it is finished they
have jolly time playing that they go
ont to sea.
Soon enough the play becomes real to
them, for when they are no more than
twelve they turn fishermen and sailors

THE TIMES KODAK.
Items ofNews Gathered Around
Town.

The man, Elijah Cobb. whose body
was found on the railroad track Tuesday
morning in Roanoke had been working
with Benjamin Clarks gang, who are
| ballasting the track between Salem and
Elliston. On tho 25th of April he was
arrested in Salem for being drunk and
| disorderly, and was fined $500 by the
mayor, who committed him to jail until
| he paid his fine, which he did twenty
four hours later. Last Monday the gang
was paid of, and Cobb started for Roam
oke on his way to his home in Peters
burg. 1t is more than probable that no
got to drinking Monday night in Roam
oke with bad company, and that in a
drunken brawl, or for the sake of the
few dollars on his person, he was
knocked in the head and placed on the
railroad track.
The remains of Mrs. j. w. Campbell,
who died at her home in Bedford CITY
Tuesday morning, were brought yester-
day morning to the residence of her soc-
n-law, R. II. Carper, on College ave-
nue., and in the afternoon buried in
East Hill Cemetery.

Portsmouth.
The closing exercises of the graded
school will take place Friday morning

| ton.

c. B. Sibert has awarded the contract
for putting the new part of the dam
across Roanoke river at the old Martin
mill, to j. c. Jones and Company, of
Basic City, who have now force of
hands at work there. The old portion
OF the dam and that near the mill has al
ready been thoroughly repaired by day
labor. The new work will still be under
the supervision of Oscar Saabye, the
skillful engineer of Roanoke, and with
a forty foot bulkhead on the wooden
mill side Of the river, will cost two
thousand dollars. The Edward Corbett
Mill Supply Company has the contract
for putting the five turbine wheels and
the corn and chop mills in order and
will probably get the job OF putting in
new roller mill machinery for making
flour.
Early yesterday morning a colored
man at tho furnace made a miraculous
escape from death. Contrary to orders.
he with three others were rolling two
trucks loaded with pigs of iron together
along the trestle instead of q few feet
apart. All OF a sudden the trestle gave
way throwing this man down eight feet
to the ground with the heavy pigs of
iron scattered all over his body, which
was terribly bruised and decorated
from head to foot, though strange to
say, there were no dones broken Dr.
Biard, the furnace physician, attended
him.
On account of the recent cold spoil
the ice factory has not been at work
this week, having enough ice on hand
for the present moderate demand.

Rumored Change Of Divisions.


The latest rumor in railroad circles
is that there is TO be another change
of divisions on the Central Pacific, to
take place on the first OF April. The
Sacramento Division will be extended
east to Reno, the Truckee and Salt
Lake division remaining as they are
at present, but the report says that
they will both be under charge of one
Superintendent, which will probably
be Superintendent Frazier of the
Truckee Division.
This will be a good thing for Reno,
as it will be the terminus of two di-
visions, whereas it is not now even a
lay-over point for crews. 1t will be
hard blow to Wadsworth, however,
and will also hurt this town, as all
the passenger conductors who reside
here will probably remove their
families to Reno.-I!Silver State.
