NEARING COMPLETION.
The Dam Across Roanoke River
Almost Done.

Frequent allusion has been m ado from
time to time in these columns of the re.
building of the dam across Roanoke
river, at the old Martin mill property.
This work was commenced by the owner,
c. Il. Sibert, nearly six months ago after
some vexatious delay, by reason Of the
Salem Development Company getting
out injunctions to prevent the work
When it was decided that the work
could proceed, Mr.. Sibert for a month
or so employed labor by the day, but
finding that was too slow Job he let it
out to contract to ]. c. Jones & Co., of
Basic City, for $4,000.
This firm has now been at work on
the dam little over two months, and
after much difficult labor have now
a substantial foundation, $40 feet by 16
feet, laid clear across the river. To do
this they had to build Golfer dams above
and below the work, keeping two steam
pumps baling out water from the space
between, at the rate of 1000 gallons a
minute, and working from twelve to
thirty men daily. In the present struc-
ture as it now stands, and it is not very
far from completion, there are sixty
thousand feet of white oak lumber,
fifteen hundred tons of rock and one
ton of spikes and bolts.
The work has been done stoutly and
thoroughly and it is believed the present
dam when complete will stand the
heaviest swell in the river. Whilst the
contractors have had the work in charge,
Mr.. Sibert has been ably represented on
the spot by Captain f. M. Leake, of
Gardonsvillc, an experienced mill.
wright, who has made several valuable
suggestions in regard to the construc-
ton
1t is estimated that the horse power
available by the presentdam is six hun
dred and five. In the mill there are five
turbine wheels and machinery for
grinding cornmeal and chop, besides
which it is probable the Edward Corhett
Mill Supply Company will put in a roller
flour mill, as it is the intention of Mr..
Sibert not only to grind custom grain
but also flour, meal and chop for ship
ment to North Carolina and Southwest
Virginia. The present mill is only a
few yards from the track and the rail
road C ompany will be asked to put in
switch for convenience in shipping. AL
together it will not be long before the
Slbert mills will be counted amongst
the many other industries of busy Salem.

some four or Eve years ago
'Three of us, more or less sportsmen
and all jolly fellows, were stopping at
small place on the eastern shore of
Lake St Clair 1t was in November
and the ducks were pretty thick We
did some great shooting that season,
can tell you.
''One day the landlord announced
that p nephew of his. q young man
just over from England, was coming
mp for few weeks sport. and he
guessed we'd find him pretty near u
dandy on the shoot.
"Well, pretty soon the young fellow
arrived, and our first glimpse Of him
decided everything. The boys said
they didn't believe he had ever seen a
wild duck, much less shot one.
''He was one of your swell hunters,
all logged out in corduroy jacket and
high-to boots, with one Of those pat
pair of eyeglasses astride his nose. He
showed us his gun, double barreled
pistol grip thing, and blowed pile on
its fine qualities and of the wonderful
execution he could do with it. 1T came
from England, ye know
would he go after ducks with us in
the morning? %, yaas, he fahncied' he
would, though it wouldn't be much
sport; he was accustomed to shooting
woodcock, and ducks flew SO beastly
slow.
"Well, we fixed up things among our
selves that night. We picked out some
Of our oldest decoys and anchored them
out in q bayou short distance from
shore, then turned in for tho night
Our friend was up bright and early
next morning and was anxious to show
his skill. We made some excuse about
not being quito ready, but told him il
he would 60 over to yonder bayou hs
insight get shot before breakfast He
put OF with much splashing of paddles
and great show of caution and waa soon
out OF sight in the reeds. Allowing
him time to reach our decoys, We FOL
lowed and soon heard the sharp bangl
bang of his gun. Before we could
reach him we heard another double re-
port. Exploding with laughter at the
success of our scheme we hastened to
the spot.' S7,. &s

abode of more curious and wonderful
specimens of animal creation than any
