SWEATING THE CITY.

Council has ordered the sale of S75,-
600 in bonds to build the Herring inter
ceptor. Easier said than done, gentle
men of the City Council.
You have had ample opportunity to
get at public opinion in the matter.
You are supposed to represent. You do
not represent q majority of your con-
stituents in trying to thrust this expen-
sive and unnecessary burden upon the
taxpayers. and the matter will shortly
come home to you.
The TIMET has great faith in its abil
ity to read public sentiment 1t has
larger constituency in Roanoke than all
the Council put together, and is in bet
ter position to Judge what tho public
wants.
All the storm water which pours into
Trout run and floods cellars on Salem
and Campbell avenues can DO disposed
of for less than $4,000, and the fact
can be demonstrated for less than 5000.
This means saving of S65, 900 to the
city. THE TIMES proposes that this
fact shall not be lost sight Of. The
lords OF other peoples money should DO
less generous. Seventy-fve thousand
dollars for an unnecessary hole in tho
ground is a goodly sum to pay for
opinions sake. 1t is more than tho

held last night, and the following reso-
lutions, offered by Mr.. Walter Sharp,
were unanimously adopted:
Resolved by the Business Mems Asso-
citation OF Norfolk, That we view with
alarm the action that is proposed to our

development Of our railroads has done
more for Virginia than any and all other
interests within her borders for the past
ten years.
Resolved, That should the general
assembly, in its wisdom, see fit to ap-
point commission with power to regu-
late rates, schedules, repairs, extern
sions, ETC., that the said commission
should assume the entire management
and make the State responsible to the
owner of these properties, and to the
general public, for any and all financial
losses and damages to persons or prop
erty that may result from such assump-
ton Of entire control, and for tho
errors Of Judgment and lack of ability
that may be displayed by the commits
sion or others under the authority of the
general assembly.
Resolved, That copy OF these reso-
lutions be sent to our representatives

POISONOUS PERFUMES,
PatchouII and Musk Frequently the
Cause OF Faintness,

PatChouIl and Musk Frequently the
Cause OF Faintness,
There are some constitutions that
cannot stand perfumes. The patch
ouli, perfume readily recognized in
India ink or the shawls, is to some
persons the rankest poison. Ladies
have been known to faint after wear
ing India shawls or painting with
India ink, and q sachet which has
patchouli as the flaw oring essence is
to many persons extremely unhealthy.
Whether the perfume causes nervous
complications Or excites nausea can
not be ascertained, will not bear it,
and q lady finding herself losing ap-
petite or strength, or having head
aches that have no explained cause,
might look for the reason to some
perfume that she is in the habit OF
using.
On some persons the musk has a
similar effect, others are sickened by
some one or other OF the volatile oils
derived from flowers, while more rare
~ the odor of apples or of other fruit
has an unfavorable effect on persons
of peculiar temperament. AS rule
whatever perfume is unpleasant to
the individual should be avoided,
but as exceptions occur to every rule,
nervousness or debility which cannot
be accounted for may sometimes be
explained by the use Of a Unknown
perfume.

Queer Shelfish That Have Been Pro-
vlded With Temporary Name.

Queer ShelfIsh That Have Been Pro-
vided With Temporary Name.
A peculiar kind OF shellfish, the like
of which had never been seen on the
Sound, says the Seattle Post. Intelli-
gencer, was fished out of 200 feet OF
water near Five Mile Point one
morning, by rock cod fishermen.
The man felt a tug at his line, and
began pulling in. Judging from the
weight, he concluded that he must
have caught the grandfather of all the
rock cod in the Sound. When he had
taken in all his line he was astonished
to findthat he had not only landed q
five-and-a.half-pound cod, but also q
rock full OF perforations, to which
were attached six lively shellfish,
each as big as ones fist, and some
what resembling gigantic mussels.
The shells of the fish were imbedded
in the rock, and as soon as the rock
was taken out of the water the fish
craned their long neeks out Of the
shells, just as turtle would.
The necks ofthe fish were unlike any
thing the fishermen had ever seen; they
resemble slightly the yellow mouth of
the lamprey eel. Their mouths were
pointed and surmounted by q hard,
brown colored beak, which they open
ed and shut precisely as q robin does.
The fish and their abode were held
together by means of the stout roots
of q seaweed which had grown around
them, and the whole weighed eight
and q half pounds. The fisherman
took the curiosity to the Denver
market, and there it was placed on
exhibition and attracted considerable
attention. In the absence of a more
scientific name, one of the men con-
nected with the market named the
shellfish 'sea canaries."
