ALUMINE, Va, March 6.-Henry Sta
ton, as it is known to most travellers, is
situated forty-nine miles south of Roa-
noke, on the Norfolk and Western rail
road, and containes four mercantile
establishments, grist and saw mill, a
dressing and matching machine, an
excellent hotel, plenty Of good schools
and churches.
here this summer by the Baptist de-
nomination Goode Bros. are building
the largest and handsomess store house
here.
This section labored under great dis
advantages until the railroad was built,
which has brought al the valuable
timber, tanbark, etc, into market, and
it is now one of the most thrifty and
prosperous sections in Southwest Vir-
ginia.
The amount of goods purchased Of
the wholesale merchants of Roanoke
by our merchants is Immense. l would
say nine enths of the business done
here is done through Roanoke. Mr..
Mitchell, for Hut, Andrews Sc Thomas,
was in town few days ago looking af-
t4r the interests Of his house. Mr.. w. A.
Pedlgo, of Vinton, was here yesterday
Mrs. Elem Prillaman is very i'll at the
home of her son-in-lsw, Mr.. Yates, of
this place.
Miss Mamie Prillaman, who is so
favorably known in Roanoke and Vinton,
has just returned from an extended
visit to relatives and friends on Reed
Creek.
A very mysterious disappearance has
occurred in this vicinity that cannot
be explained. Samuel Hall, a married
farmer of steady habits, who resides
ABOUT four miles from this place, has
oeer lnlsslnE for several days, and the
IN oat diligent seach has failed 20 throw
any light on his Whereabouts. His
family are very anxious about him, and
fear foul play has been exercised.

SENATOR BERRY and several of his
colleagues were yesterday eager to
resent the impgtation that they were
posing as obstruesieGists, and yet, if the
statement Of New York Senator re-
ported several days ago is to be relied
upon. there are at least ten Nom bers of
that body who are banded together to
seq that the Wilson bill does no. pass
Until it is satisfactory to their ideas of
tariff revision. 1t looks as II til ere were
obstruc tionists some where.

How to Protect yourself.

If you get into quarrel with a man
and SEQ that you can t get out of it with
out fight right then and there, forget
that he has a head, pick out tho second
button of his vest and smash him on it
rs hard as you can. In 90 cases out of
100 you'll win the battle without an
other lick. There is no foul about
stomach blow; it's only when you get
below the belt that you are open to
criticism. OF course you are liable to
hurt man by hitting him in the stom-
ach, but that's what you are there for.
Most people who get into sudden row
i am speaking Of course of those who
have never been taught how to take care
of themsolves-go at each other hand
over hand like sailor climbing up the
rigging, and thoy invariably try for
each others head. AS said before, for
get your antagonist has head if you
arc forced into a fight. Just take aim at
tho place where you think his chest pro-
tector stops and let drive at it. There
is not one man in 10000 can stand a
crack there. 1t takes months of train
ing to mako mans stomach hard
enough to receive even medium blow
there. Then, if you want to spoil his
beauty and leave your visiting card with
him In the shape Of black eye, you can
do it at your leisure, for the fellow who
is hit in tho bread basket forgcts al
about his body above that, for the time
being anyhow.-Washing Post.

Daudet's Artistic Wife.

Madame Alphonse Daudet
dresses with infinite taste, and
carries to the highest point that
household craft and art which ap-
pear in the smallest details Of
equipment and furniture; in the
composition of a dinner, in every
thing that surrounds an accom-
plished maitresse de maison,
writes Madame Blanc in an in
teresting sketch, with portrait, Of
the famous novelist's wife, in the
December Ladies, Home Journal.
To Madame Daudet the artist or
the impressionist is a person who
knows how to be useful as we'll as
enchanting. She was brought up
by her mother, Madame Allard,
under the severest traditions of
the good old French bourgeoise,
which are quite the opposite OF
that modern culture which des-
pises needle work and cooking.
She has sung her needle in charm.
ing poetry, she understands every
thing about good dinners. Thanks
to his wife Daudet had a very
plesent home from the beginning,
long before he had won success
and fame and fortune.

HONDURAS AND SALVADOR
Levy Heavy Taxes on Everything
Foreign, Following the Ex-
ample of Peru.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 26. - The
Honduras government has for
charitable purposes imposed a tax
Of five cents a quintal on sugar
made in the country or imported
and an import tax OF two per cent.
on all foreign liquors, except wines,
for the purpose of establishing a
fund to be used for the construc-
ton of railroads; tax Of 10 cents per
100 kilos has been laid on all pack
ages passing through custom hous-
es for export or import; of one per
cent on all money paid for freight
by seas; of 2 per cent. on all money
paid for insurance premiums out
side Of the country; OF 2 per cent.
on bank dividends.
United States Consul Dawson, at
San Salvador, has informed the de-
partment of state that the pro.
visional government of Salvador
has required all customs duties to
be paid in silver at 100 per cent. in
bonds against the custom house and
are obliged to pay 5 per cent in
bonds Of the SalvadOrean mint.

PERUVIAN DUTIES RAISED.
Which Affect Exports From the
United States Materially.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 26.-United
States Minister Mckenzie has
notified the State department
that the government Of Peru
has issued two DEGREES, affecting
customs duties. One is: CONNER
cial and such other goods as are
exempt from duty under article l
of December Is, 1888, shall pay
hereafter duty Of per cent ad-
valorem. Gold and silver bullion
and coin and ammunition for the
use of rifles or revolvers remain
exempt. The second decree in
creases the rate duty on a large
number of commodities, including
agricultural machinery, furniture,
hides, brick, etc.
The cause Of this increase is the
necessity for raising money to sup
press the revolution and Congress
has clothed President Caceres with
almost unlimited power to raise
the revenues, y

BABY KILLED.
THE HORSE SHED AT A NEW
OULVERT
And Threw Mother and Babe Out
With Fatal Results to the Latter.

Yesterday morning Mr.. and Mrs.
+. G. Dean, of No. l26 North Laredo
street, with their little boy, aged IL
months, started in a buggy to take
a trip out into the country, on the
Somerse ct road.
Yesterday afternoon they drove
back to this city in. tears, having
had the sad misfortune to see their
dear little baby killed before their
very eyes, in a very shocking
manner. Mr.. Dean says they had
proceeded only about six miles,
when they came to a new Gull
vert, which had recently been
built by the county. The horse
became frightened at this object
and SHE'D and began to run away
and kick the dashboard. Mrs.
Dean and baby were thrown out,
and the baby struck on its head.
Mrs. Dean was bruised but not
otherwise injured. Mr.. Dean
had his hands full in quieting
the horse, which was finally
done, and then the parents picked
up their unconscious baby and
drove as rapidly as they could
back to the city and DR.. Berry
was summoned to attend the ba-
by.
He discovered that conclusion
Of the brain had resulted from the
child's fall, and though he saw no
hope he worked faithfully with it
until late last night. Death came
at o'clock this morning.
The parents are inconsolable
at their loss and have the SYM
pathy Of a large circle of warm
friends. Mr.. Dean is employed at
the Gas Works.

A WEEK BEFORE.
SPECULATION As TO WHAT CON-
GRESS WILL DO.
Democrats Divided on the Silver
Question-Free Raw Material
Bills and Appropriations
Will Come Up.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 25.-There is
hardly the usual interest in the ap-
preaching meeting of Congress,
which is generally manifested
about the capitol. There have
been fewer arrivals of both Sen
ators and representatives than
usual, though in the last days of
the last week business air per-
vaded somewhat about the House
end OF the Capitol as several men,
bers Of the Committee on Appro.
priations responded to Chairman
Sayers' request for committee
meeting to consider certain of the
appropriation bills. Consequently
it is difficult to present any tanGi-
BILE forecast of the proceed
ings. Among opinions ore
hears most frequently or
the House side, especially
among the southern Democrats, s.
there will be revival of the effort
to repeal the 10 per cent state bank
tax law, and it is already stated
that strong pressure will be brought
to bear on that.
The silver question will also cut
a figure of some sort in the short
session, but as few of the prominent
Democratic silver leaders have ar
rived, and as none Of those here
have definite plans, it is impossi-
BILE to say what may be under
taken. The sentiment among many
of the most conservative Of the sill
yer men is evidently against the
taking up Of the question at all, be-
cause Of the futility OF such a
course in view of the previous OPP
position to free coinage.
1t is taken for granted that the
administration will propose a
financial scheme on the lines of the
Baltimore plan and it was suggest
ed today by leading Democratic
Senator that II an effort is made to
put bill through carrying this
plan into effect it would be amend.
ed by a free coinage rider and al
lowed passage. There is plainly a
division of sentiment among the
Democratic senators and represen-
tatives regarding the practicability
Of the Baltimore plan or any other
plan on the same lines and it is al.
ready evident the subject will lead
to wide range Of debate.
The propriety of the recent bond
issue will surely prove prolific
source of speech making.
With reference to the supple
mentary tariff or free raw material
bills which were put through the
house with such eXpediency last
August, it may be said that Demo.
cratic senators, almost without ex-
ception, say there is no probability
that they will become laws.

ACCURATE BATTERIES.
EXPERIMENT AT NEW YORK HAIR,
Dor.
With Our Modern Mortars it Will
Prove Very Difficult to Enter
in Time of War.

NEW YORK, Nov. 26.-The Board
of Ordnance Of the United States
have just been conducting series
of experiments at the Sandy Hook
proving grounds, the last two days
with a view of ascertaining how
we'll protected New York city is
from attack by foreign enemies,
and also to know what may be eE-
pected from mortar batteries in
the way of accuracy when they are
trained on the enemiy's ships
standing out to sea. The result of
the boards Investigations have
been highly gratifying, to say the
least, and show that no warlike
vessels could get very near our
harbor without undergoing the or
deal of tremendous lombard
ment, besides as regards the accur-
acy of and rapiditity of firing, the
story is best told in the words Of
Gen. B. NJ. Cutcheon, of Michigan,
the chairman OF the board, who is,
an expert in military matters and
particularly in projectiles and was
at the head of the House commit.
tee on military affairs in the Dist
Congress
"Our experiments at the Sandy
Hook Proving Grounds were
directed, for the most part, to NOR
tar batteries" said Gen. Cutcheon,
ave would fire them all together
and then in groups of four. We
experimental with them at the
same elevation and range for &C.
curacy and to see If the projectiles
would all fall together. We fired
four at a 3,000.yards range and at
an elevation Of so degrees so as to
make them drop down on the
beach near the 5000 yard target.
"Then we sent down to where the
projectiles struck and had the shot
plated on paper. We were more
than pleased to find that they had
all fallen close together; that is a
fact that the greatest distance Of
extreme dispersion was only thir-
ty-two feet.
"The battery, you know, is made
up of sixteen mortars and we set
them off in groups of four. One of
the groups we fired out to sea and
the accuracy was such that they
all seemed to be one projectile,
striking simultaneously and max
ing one great splash. Our idea was
to see how accurately we would
perforate the decks OF an enemy's
ship by our projectlles, and indeed
it is hardly necessary to tell you
that the mortar batteries would
make it pretty lively for any one
who happened to be in the line Of
their range. Not only one but all
Of them practically hit the target"

HER WEDDING DAY.
GEAR NICHOLAS TAKES HIS EN-,
PRESS TODAY.
Princess Alix at Last is the Happy
Czarina of all the Russias.

ST. PETERSBURG, Nov. 26.-Be.
fore Z o'clock this morning large
crowds of people assembled on
Newsky Prospect in order to secure
places along the route of the royal
wedding procession. From Anitch-
koff palace to the Winter palace
the whole avenue was lined with
troops.
Before long the whole front Of the
route was black with people. At
ll:l5 were suddenly heard the
strains of the national anthem and
along the route the multitude un-
covered in anticipation Of the ap-
proach of the bridal party. Soon
after there appeared an open state
carriage drawn by four white hors-
es. In this there were the Gar
and his brother, the Grand Duke
Michael.
Both wore the uniform of hus-
sars of the guard and were greeted
with a vociferous burst of cheers,
renewed again and again.
The Cars equipage proceeded
and was also followed by detach-
ment of chevaliers Des Gardes and
Hussars and Lancers of the guard.
Then came superb landau, g..
so drawn by four white horses, in
which were the Princess Alix and
Czarina. They received, if possible,
an even more hearty greeting than
the Gar himself. After the cay
riage of the Princess and Czarina,
followed long train of car
riages with the royal g uests. The
wedding procession entered the
winter palace at Is p. m, where
were assembled all those invited to
be present at the wedding.
The nuptial ceremony OF the
Greek church was held and the
wedding was announced by all the
bells of the city Ginning.
