They Turned Out In Large Numbers for
Last Nights Mass-meeting.
The mass-me citing Of Democratic
voters held in the hall over Bohn's store
in the Fifth ward last night was unques-
tonably the largest political gathering
ever held in that ward, and the enthu-
siam displayed would remind spectat tor
OF the times when Roanoke's Demo-
cratic majority was over 900.
The meeting WAS called to order by S.
Hamilton Graves, chairman Of the exec.
utive committee, who made few ap-
propriate remarks, after which ablo and
rousing addresses were made BY Luc ian
II. Cooke, Roy B. Smith and w. o.
Hardaway.
The speeches were we'll received and

E. STRONG DEAD
MANAGER OF THE NEWSPAPER
UNION PASSES AWAY.
=" wen Known and Highly Esteemed
mead OF the Largest Auxiliary Printing
establishment in the World Succrmbs
to Heart Paralysis.
Sketch of His Life.

Charles f.. Strong, general manager of
me Chlcago Newspaper Union and it's
branches, died at his home in Chicago
early Wednesday morning, paralysis of
the heart being the immediate cause of
death, although his illness dates from the
time of the annual meeting of the Ty-
pothetae at Philadelphia in September.
While in attendance there he contracted
a severe cold. This aggravated Il compli-
cation of heart and bronchial troubles
from which he had long suffered, and on
o he was obliged to take to his room.
lhere were no particularly alarming
symptoms. not even on the day and even
ing of his death; in fact. his jovial spirits
had given the anxious ones hope of final
recovery. At midnight, however. Mrs.
Strong was awakened by unusual rest
lessness on the part of her husband, and
before the physician could be summoned

Onions are a kind of all.round good
medicine, and every housewife knows
this without exactly knowing the rea.
son why. She knows that a whole
onion eaten at bedtime will by the
next morning break the severest cold.
She slso knows that onions make a
good plaster to remove Inflammation
and hoar- eneSs. If any one would take
an onion and mash it as to secure all
the juice in it. he would have a most
remarkab G smelling substance that
would quiet the most nervous person
in no time. The strength of it inhaled
for a few moments will dull the sense
of smell and weaken the nerves until
sleep is produced from sheer exhau5-
tion. 1t all comes from one property
possessed by the onion, and that is a
form of opium.

Among the reports coming to the State

by comparison. He says that the estab-

for the production Of serum, yet the de-
mand has been so great that the hospitals
ran out of il i'll September. This has Il
singular effect on the death rate, which
in children under four, the most difficult
age. had sunk to II per cent. before the
exhaustion Of the store of serum; it rose
during October to GO per cent.

scourge in a region where it is prevalent. The

Story of His Life.
Charles T.. Strong was born in Union
City, Mich, March 2S, 1871. His pa
rents were among the early pioneers of
that State, having located there in 1896.
In 1850 they removed to Milwaukee,
Wis, where. at the age of fourteen years,
their eldest son, Charles T.. was appren-
ticed to S. NJ. Booth, then publisher of
the Daily Free Democrat, to learn the
printers trade. with whom he remained
for four years. Aftcrward Mr.. Strong
was engaged in the different newspaper
and job printing offices in Milwaukee
until the year 1860, when he entered the
Office of the Evening Wisconsin as com
positor, and two years later was made
foreman of that establishment. which
position he held until October, 1870. when
he was sent to Chicago by his employers
to establish and put in operation tho
Chicago Newspaper Union, which has
become. under his management and di-
r%ection, the largest auxiliary printing
house in the world. He had probably done
more to advance the ready-print news.
paper system han any other man in the
country, and was the pioneer in practical
work pertaining to that business, his
first experience in making up what is
termed patent inside" forms dating
back to the spring of 1864. Probably nc
man in Chicago had n larger or more
agreeable acquaintanceship or was held
in greater esteem among the country pub
fishers of the West than Charles f
Strong.

One of Nature $ Queerest Freaks.

There is a shell-nsh, called the coat
of-mail, which has its eyes, not on it's
body, where we would naturally look
for them, but on it's shell. They glis-
ten like crystals in their calcare us
settings. AS we'll might we expect to
see eyes OF the shell of a tortoise, or
on our finger nails. This discovery. so
new in science, has led to closer in
spection. In one specimen 80 eyes
were counted, u rows, with an average
of Is to each row. Another shell, in
which the eyes were very small, had
$500 ewes on it.
