and one day, being alone with the
Princess Dagmar, he handed her
tremblingly the letter of his brother.

"A NorE.oF WARNING.

TIE TIMES utters q note of warning.
A gang of expert cracksmen are work
ing the city. Two safes were robbed
under their skillful manipulation Tues
day night. Every householder should
guard his premises; every banking in
stitution and corporation should guard
well its vaults.
To the public the descent of these
criminals upon the city seems directly
traceable to the inefficient organization
of the Roanoke police force. The action
of the board of police commissioners at
it's last meeting was not and is not sus-
tanned by public sentiment. These are
good grounds for the position taken by
many thatit was illegal.
1t is imperative that the present con-
dition of affairs in the police depart
ment be changed at once for the protec-
ton of the lives and property of citi-
zens. The present board of police COM
missioners have shown themselves I'M
able to grapple with the situation.
They shonld resign at once that new
blood may bring about new order of
affairs.
If the commissioners cannot realize
what every intelligent man in Roanoke
has seen for months, the attention of
Council is called to the following ex-
tract from section 80, chapter ", of the
city charter: "All officers appointed by

The Bad English Spoken in the Home of

London, which should set the cX-
ample of purity, is unquestionably the
greatest sinner i'll the matter of pro-
nunciation. The first letter of the
alphabet is pronounced like i, thus

ii" becomes oil Eight" "loipht:"
"o' is uttered as if cow" mo" by the
cOcllney is pronounced as now"
"keow," etc. An hours visit to any of
our London schools. for which we are
so heavily taxed, will prove this part of
our contention. Articulation must be
distinguished from pronunciation as the
consonant is from the vowel A man
may pronounce we'll, and yet articulate
badly, and vice versa. In schools and
colleges Bishop Wilberforces rule ought
to be regularly carried out. use the lips

results of want of training in the con-

Neatness I'm Girls.

Neatncss is Il good thing for girl,
and if she does not learn it when she is
young, She never will. II takes great
deal more neatness TO make girl look
we'll than it does to make a boy look
passable. Not because n boy. to start
with, is better looking than girl, but
the clothes are of different sort. not
SO many colors in them, and people
don't expect boy to look so pretty as
girl. A girl that is not neatly dressed
is called sloven, and no one likes to
look Mt her. Her face may be pretty
and her eyes bright. but if there is a
spot of dirt on her cheek, and her fin.
gers ends are black with ink. and he,
shoes are not laced or buttoned up, and
her apron is dirty, and her collar is not
