we rolled our wheels out and pointed
them for Pittsfeld. The trio of the old
house stood upon the quaint little porch
and watched US oil up and make ready.
Dave was just able to be about and help
himself. There were tears in the old

and said:
''Goodby, my sons, and God be with

shelley,s Feminine Admirers.

Mr.. Graham in his recollections of
Jane Clermont, Mary Shelley's half Sis
ter, has this transcription of talk with
her:
"All you ladies', 1 remarked, seem
to have formed kind of adoring circle
around Shelley"
YES" she said. shelley had an ir-
resistible attraction for all women. His
nature was so pure and noble, the tone
of his poetry, whenever woman is
mentioned, is of all almost unearthly
purity. Instead of holding with Byron
that woman is inferior to man, he look
ed up to woman as something higher
and nobler. Many of his poems express
this feeling most forcibly.
1.-THE desire of the moth for the star,
The desire of the night for the morrow,
The devotion to something affair.""
II can imagine Shelley said, ''al-
most like pretty girl himself. am
sure that poetical epistle to Maria Gis-
borne is most ladylike."
She replied Indignantly, Not at all.
There was no lack of manliness about
Shelley. He was utterly without any
sense of fear, always in the open air,
yachting or taking strong physical exer-
lion. He was the finest walker of any
man of the Byron-Shelley clique and
could tire out almost any OF the others. !"

Benedict--I thought over the matter
carefully. If l had married the daugh-

The Roanoke baseball team Is seem
ingly in bad condition, and it is the
general opinion that something needs
to be done and done quickly to bring
them to the standard expected and
absolutely required by team repre-
senting this city in the Virginia State
league. Bad rumors have been in cir
oulation concerning the members Of the
team, the truth of which we will not
endeavor to pass upon. : Certain 1t is
that a nine which played so we'll in the
first two games in Petersburg has
some redeeming qualities, which have
not been shown in the subsequent
contests. Where the fault lies should
be determined upon at once and
remedied. THE TINES but voices the
sentiment of the enthusiasts in the
city in expressing the opinion that a
manager from Roanoke and a mem Der
of the Athletic Club should be with the
team during it's trips away. Confidence
in the fact that tho affairs were being
looked after as only man interested in
the welfare of the club would ensure
can only be secured by this arrange
ment.

FoREPAUoH's GREAT SHOWS
The World'a Champion Jumping Horse t
be Introduced.

The World's Champion Jumping Horse to
be Introduced.
WHEN the first announcements by the
Adam Forepaugh shows were sent out,
distinctive arenic novelty was prom
ised. 1t created considerable amount
of speculation when it was remem bered
how scarce such things as novelties in
circus arc and how difficult they are
to obtain. But the management of the
shows maintain their reputation as
usual. and 80 they will introduce TO the
public the first appearance in q circus
OF the champion jumping horse of the
world. The term champion is not used
in this instance without consideration
for Its meaning, for it Is the champion
Filemaker, that is referred to. All
horsemen know that he holds the record
for the highest jumping in the world,
and know also that he has never before
been exhibited to the public In this
manner.
His record is clearing bar feet Az
inches high, with is mistress, Mme.
Marantette, in tho saddle. 1t is difficult
to believe that horse can Jump SO
high, and yet it is fact. Filep1aker is
large horse, II hands and l inch high
and weighs 1870 pounds Nine. Maran-
tette, who is the greatest horsewoman
that ever lived, will also introduce
Jupiter, little imported Welsh pony,
who stands only As inches high and yet
has record Of feet IA inches-a per
Torrance even more wonderful than that
OF Filemaker, everything considered.
She also owns and will show at each
exhibition the champion park and sad
die horse of tho world, Evergreen, who
is said to be by far tho handsomest morse
ever foaled in the State Of Kentucky,
the birthplace of the finest horses in the
world. They will be seen on Wednesday
next, when the Adam Forepaugh Shows
will be here.

IT Is to be hoped that calm and care
full consideration, augmented by conces'
sions from both sides will prevail in
the controversy nov pending between
the Norfolk and Western railroad and
its employees and that no strike will re-
suit. The direful effect of such move
would be sorry thing to contem plate.
Whatever the termination 1t would
be disastrous to the road and men
alike. 1t would cripple the business
prospects OF the road. now apparently
looking brighter and moro propitious;
1t would tend to impoverish men whose
condition has not been the best during
the past months Of business depression
and lack of employment. The general
meeting of the railroad is to be held in
this city on Wednesday next, and IL is
to be hoped that the differences can be
amicably settled at that time.
