NORFOLK AND WESTERN.
Items Gathered About the Gen.
eraI Offices.

George Ramsey, chief clerk to Vice
President and General Manager Joseph
Sands, of the Norfolk and Western, re-
ports that freight shipments over the
Norfolk and Western have very much
increased during the past ten days. Mr..
Ramsey says that the demand for coke
in the West and Southwest is very
heavy; in fact so heavy that at times
the road is pressed for cars to trans
port it.
The Norfolk and Western is shipping
over It's line TO Northern and Eastern
markets from three to four car loads of
Virginia spring lambs per day.
The watermelon season has fairly
opened, and the Norfolk and Western is
shipping, on fast schedule, two or three
cars of melons per day to New York,
Boston and other Northern and Eas tern
markets.
The Roanoke Machine Works have
contract to furnish two hundred and
fifty cars for the Pennsylvania railroad.
They have all material on hand and are
now at work turning out from six to ten
cars per day.
Passenger travel over the Norfolk and
Western is picking up considerably and
it is expected to increase constantly dur
ing the summer. This road is now ar
ranging for a number of excursions from
Norfolk, Petersburg and other points
along it's line.
Governor Mckinney and the State
board of public works came in late
Wednesday night from their tour Of in
speeding the Norfolk and Western divi-
sions and the Louisville and Nashville
lines in the State. They spent the night
at the Hotel Roanoke andleft yesterday
morning over the Norfolk and Western

REGARDING EPIDEMICS.
An English Savant Pronounccs Influenza
Due to Dust.

An English Savant Pronounccs Influenza
Due to Dust.
At recent meeting of the Royal
Meteorological society, paper on the
untenability of an atmospheric hypo-
thesis of epidcmics was read by Hon.
Rollo Russell. The author is of opin-
ion that no kind of epidemic or plague
is conveyed by the general atmosphere,
but that all epidemics are caused by
human conditions and communicat tons
capable of control. In this paper he in
vestigates the matter of the propaga-
ton of influenza, and gives the dates of
the outbreaks in 1890 at large number
of islands and other places in various
parts of the world. Mr.. Russell says
that there is no definite or known at
mospheric quality or movement on
which the hypothesis of atmospheric
conveyance can rest, and when closely
approached it is found to be no more
available than phantom. Neither up
per nor lower currents have ever taken
year to cross Europe from east to
west, or adjusted their progress to the
varying rate of human intercourse.
Like other maladies of high infective
capacity, influenza has spread most cas-
llN, OCiCi IhiHBS pCillb equal, III cOiti
calm weather, when ventilation in
houses and railway cars is at mini
mum, and when, perhaps, the breathing
organs are most open to attack. But
large and rapid communications seem
to be of much more Importance than
mere climatic conditions. Across frozen
and snow covered countries and tropical
regions it is conveyed at speed cor
responding, not with the movements Of
the atmosphere, but with the move
ments of population and merchandise.
Its Indifference to soil and air, apart
from human habits depending on these,
seems to eliminate all considerations of
outside natural surroundings, and to
leave only personal Effectiveness, with
all which. this implies of subtle trans
mission, to account for this propaga-
ton. The origin of influenza epidemics
was discussed by Mr.. II. IIarries. The
author has made an investigation into
the facts connected with the great crup-
ton of Krakatoa in 1888, and the at
mospheric phenomena which were the
direct outcome of that catastrophe. He
has come to the conclusion that the dust
derived from the interior of the earth
may be considered the principal factor
concerned in the propagation of the re-
cent influenza cpidemics. and that, as
this volcanic dust invaded the lower
levels of the atmosphere, so peculiar
form of sickness assailed man and
beast.

HANDSOME RESIDENCE.
The Beautiful Home of j. +. Christian on
Eleventh Avenue.

The Beautiful Home of j. +. Christian on
Eleventh Avenue.
Among the many attractive houses OF
Roanoke not the least so is that of j.
f. Christian, which is located on
Eleventh avenue. The grounds are
spacious, neatly graded with blue grass
and shaded by grand old forest trees,
some of which have battled with the
storms OF ages. The house is of modern
architecture, built OF pressed brick and
native shingles, is two stories in height
with little veranda or observatory at
the top and contains twelve large, we'll
ventilated and handsomely furnished
rooms, besides linen rooms, pantries and
bath rooms.
The parlor is large apartm ent,, being
divided into sections by heavy silk cur
tains and is furnished in silk tapestry.
The corner tables are of solid mahogany
and are filled with q tasty assortment of
b.ic-a- brac.
Among the many features of this ele.
CANT apartm ent that are worthy of men
ton is sofa and chair which Mrs.
Christian saved from her home in Rich
mond when it was burned in the general
confiagration which ensued on the citys
evacuation April 3, 1865.
On the mantel is an ivory lion, a
faithful representation Of that which is
carved out of solid stone, and stands in
the center OF one of the principal streets
in the old town of Lucerne, as monu-
ment 20 the Swiss guard which was
slain in the Tuilleries on August 10th,
1892, in defense of Louis NVI. and his
Inflated queen, Marie Antoinette. On
the base of the pedestal, as on that at
Lucerne, is the inscription, "Helvetio-
rum Fidei ;e Virtuti"
The walls of the parlor are adorned
with handsometpainungs among which
are Niagara" a scene near Lexington,
Va, painted by the celebrated artist,
Coleman, and which is a cost euuisite
piece of art. The "Fisherman's Re-
turn" and two fine paintings of sunrise
and sunset. On one easel is painting
in pastelle by Miss Leila Mason Tur-
ner, executed when she was quite a
girl, of her school mato Miss Carrie
Christian. This exquisite work of art
was painted after tho death OF Miss
Christian and almost entirely from the
memory Of the artist.
The dining room is finished in oak, is
adorned with handsome and appropriate
paintings and contains a table which is
over one hundred years old. In short,
this home is furnished throughout with
the chaste and elegant taste which was
a characteristic of the old Southern
homo, and for com fort, convenience and
beauty is all that the most fastidious
could desire
