Mr.. FRED MILLER, OF Irving, ILL.,,

trouble for many years, with severe
pains in his back, and also that his
bladder was affected. He tried many

good result. About year ago he began
the use of Electric Bitters, and found

ROANOKE, VA. JULY "a, 1894.
A coon ROADS REMINDER.

A GOOD ROADS REMINDER.
The heavy rains of the past few days
probably served to remind thousands OF
residents of Southwest Virginia that the
public highways of this great common
wealth are in no condition to withstand
the even moderate downpour of water
which we have been having. Reports
have come to the notice OF TIE TIMES
of very severe washouts in some Sec
tions, while the red earth of our country
roads had evidently been formed into
spongy mass, which will render travel
by no means easy. Such conditions
serve to stir up a sentiment in favor OF
good roads which may prove more
effective to the ordinary farmer than any
other means used to agitate this question
How lasting these practical illustrations
may be is the question. 1t is doubtless
the case that all thoughts of improve
mens OF roads will cease with the drying
must be done TO impress the fac. upon
everyone concerned that thero must
soon be reactionary movement in re-
gard to this important matter.
While the Young Mems Business
League of Roanoke has commenced
work upon matters of purely local in.
terest and important to this community
alone, it has also started an agitation
upon the good roads questi on which, If
pushed to its utmost and finally to the
accompl lshment Of its grand result, will
perhaps be as fruitful of good to this city
as any other single undertaking.
Under the direction OF the energetic
committee, to which the public highway
improvement question was referred by
the league, the work o. securing vast
amount OF information relative to this
subject has been commenced with the
ultimate aim in view Of collecting this
data INFO presen.sble shape, upon
which basis the plans for this reform
can be undertaken. Yesterday this
committee sent out to every clerk OF the
county courts in tho one hundred coun-
ties Of Virginia circular letter OK.

taken and soliciting carefully compiled
replies to a number of inquiries bearing
upon the present system Of road making

sion OF the sentiment of the community
on the question of highway improve
mept.
We commend this circular to every
ono into whose hands it falls and The
TIMES but reiterates the hope OF the
committee that these replies will be
made as soon as possible. We trust
every county clerk will realize the i'm
portaace of this movement and be
public spirited enough to assist q this
work to his fullest extent.
The time must soon come when the
people Of Virginia will realize the dis
advantages under which they are labor.
ing by not maintaining good hig hways.
The roads Of the State, upon whole.
are disgrace to the community and
not only to insure the prof BILE conduct
OF home affairs especially among our
farming sections, but in order to secure
new capital from away must an i'm
provement be made in our public roads.
Lat us hope that the agitation which is
started with renewed vigor by the
Young Mems Business League of Roa-
noke will accomplish it's purpose.

They Carried on Clothing. Revoivers,
Watches and Jeweiry From West
Front street Store at . u. IN.
The police made neat capture Of two
colorcd burglars last Friday, Edward
Gates, alias Frank Read, and Ben Tubb,
alias James Smith, who had made a
very successful haul of goods from the
store Of Peter Torckle, No. 20i West
Front street at 4 n. IN. The plumber in.
cluded u quantity of clothing, four or
five watches, four revolvers and lot of
iewelry.
Mr.. rorckle reported the robbery at
police station Friday morning. The
chief at once detailed Sergeauts Bayley
and WEIGH and Officers Davidson and
Lucas to take charge of the matter.
Chief Dolan himself went down to the
plundered store and subsequently To-
Gated quite quantity of tho stolen
articles in the pawn shops along Front
street.
The clue to the burglars whereabouts
was obtained from a young colored man
who had sold quantity of clothing ut
No. lO4 East Front street. II was fol.
lowed up, and the burglars were at
length discovered In the west yard. As
the officers got there the thieves caught
| sight of them first and then followed Il
| lively chase over hedges and bitches.
But the men were nabbed by Sergeant
Baylcy and Officer Davidson. Four re-.
volyers and four watches were found on
| them.
A bundle of clothing was discovered

of one of the burglars who had UNI
dressed there and arrayed himself in u
complete new suit, including shirt and
Undertaking which he had obtained in
Torckle's store.
The burglars are new men in vii.
mington. They are entirely unknown
to the police. Frank Read claims to be
only IA years old. His right name is
Edward Gates and he is undoubtedly 10
years of age at least. He says no
escaped from the Maryland House of
Reformation, at Chetenham, Prince
George county, four months ago.
Chicago is his home. He weighs about
l40 pounds. His reformatory number
is 1872.
Benjamin Tabb, alias James Smith, is
a light, copper.colored negro, 10 years
old. lie also escaped from the Mary
land institution at the same time. His
number is 1861. He is stout and thick
set, and weighs 40 pounds.
Both burglars were dressed out in
brand new suits of clothes. Tabb asked
the chief to write TO General j. w.
Howe, superintendent of the reforma-
tory, begging him to take them back.
Read explained the manner Of the rob-
berry rs follows: 1--WE went into the
store last evening and sold revolver to
Mrs. Torckle. We were passing the
place at 4 o'clock this morning and we
found the window wide open. Well,
We just went right in and got all we
wanted. That was all. We carried off
all we could"
The negro burglars were arraigned
before Judge Ball last Friday. Torkel
identified the stolen clothing as his
property and the propretors Of second
hand clothing stores identified the pris-
oners as the men having sold 10 them
the stolen goods.
Judge Ball held each of the negroes
