FOR THE COTTON FACTORY.
James d, Lazel States Some Solid Facts
for Its Establishment.

James d. Lazell States Some Solid Facts
for Its Establishment.
The question as to whether or not
Roanoke is to have a cotton tory is
being discussed very freely on the
streets and among business men gener-
ally. The feeling is strongly in favor
OF the factory and the mass meeting
which will be held at the Academy of
Music Tuesday will undoubtedly be a
large and enthusiastic one. It is the
history OF the cotton factory everywhere
that this industry pays from 10 per
cent. upwards on it's investments and
the friends of the scheme in Roanoke
claim that it wsll soon be one of best
paying industries in the South.
A TIMas reporter called on ]. d.
Lazell yesterday and asked him his
opinion in regard to the advisability OF
locating the factory in Roanoke. Mr..
Lazell said:
I'm the first place it is evident to
every thinking citizen of the city that
some decided effort must be made to
obtain new industries or Roanoke will
lose her Roadway. In my opinion the
100000 asked for for the railroad would
do tho city much more good If invested
in smaller industries. On the basis of
what is asked for by Capt. Henry and
Mr.. Woodruff 100000 would build
several cotton mills and three or four
good cotton mills hero would speedily
draw the railroad.
Another point in favor of the cotton
factory is the fact that it gives employ.
ment to women and children. This
will not only increase the revenues of a
largo number of the families already
here, but will, of course, bring more
people to Roanoke, for If laboring
man sees where his wife and daughter
can obtain work at Ger tain place, he is
going to locate there.
II had occa,ion to.yisit Greenville,
N. c., recently and inquired most care.
fully into the reputation and ability of
Capt. j. d. Henry. 1 found tn at he is
esteemed very highly by everyone. He
is an old Virginian by birth, l think,
and has relatives IA brother) living in
Tazewell county. Captain Henry has
been in the cotton mill business for the
last eighteen years. and is considered
one of the best cotton men in the
South.
II think every citizen who has the
welfare Of the city at heart should at
tend the mass meeting on Tuesday
night at the Academy and hear from
co npetent men what certain mills have
done and can do for section. The
meeting is not called with the idea OF
asking any one to subscribe, but merely
to discuss the subject of cotton mills"

New Theory of Sleep.

Some discussion has been going on con-
corning Herr Rosenbaum's recently pro-
posed theory of sleep, namely, that the
anaemic condition of the brain is due to
an excess of water in the brain cells of
that body. The supposition, as stated, is
that sleep is essentially a matter of nery-
Gus action, and the direct cause is thought
to be fatigue of the nerve cells which
communicate with the heart and bring
about some change in the circulatlon; the
nerve cells are thus supposed to be full OF
water when sleep comes on, and this
water during sleep passes into the venous
blood as waste, and the nerve cells then
receive nOurishment from fresh arterlal
blood-then, when the process is entirely
OveI, the sleeper awakeS. According to
this theory, sleep is not solely healthy
because it rests the body and brain, but
also because it invigorates them. 1t is also
to be inferred from Rosenbaum's theory
that the nerve cells and brain of infants
who sleep so much must contain moro
water than is to be found in those Of
adults, and that the effecti yeness of brain
cells is in inverse ratio to the water con-
tents Of not interior interest is the
theory of DR.. James Cappe of Edinburgh,
and also held by some other eminent
scientists, namely, that the veins of the
plamater, the inner mem brane of the
skull. are capable of congesting and dis
persing comparatively large quantities Of
biood-that congestion produces vertigo
and senselessness or stupor- and that the
dispersion OF blood from the brain cells
produces a slight compression on the sur
face of the brain and thus brings about
sleep.-N. y. Tribune.
