GENERAL LEE AND SOUND MONEY

The action OF tho President in aD-
pointing Gen. Fitzhugh Lee internal
revenue collector to supply the vacancy
caused by the death of Capt. Ham.
Sheppard, while very acceptable to
the people OF this district and the State
at large, has nevertheless been the cause
OF considerable gossip among politicians
at Washington who see in this selection
an effort on the part OF Mr.. CLEVELAND
to counteract the influence Of the free
silver Democrats OF this State. The
Washington Star in commenting on the
eral Lees appointment was clever
stroke on the part of the President.
General Lee, they assert, yields con-
siderable influence personally in the
rank and file OF the Democracy OF the
State, and that influence is now to be
heightened and increased by the politi-
cal power placed in his hands by the
appointment As collector he will have
the selection OF large number of
deputies, and will, the gossips say, be in
position to make his personality felt
in the portion of the State lying under
his official jurisdiction. The politicians
profess to believe that General Lee will
soon CO ne out boldly on sound money
basis, and they base this belief on the
allegation that his selection was made
for this purpose.
They dwell especially on the fact
that while the Virginia Congressional
delegates were exerting.mighta and main
to come to an agreement upon some
candidate for the place, Mr.. Cleveland
calmly ignored them and announced
his own selection, which they say the
President could do with impunity, be-
cause OF General Lees prominence in
State and national politics. That Gen.
eral Lee would be party to such
scheme, we do not believe, even admit.
ting that such was the Presidents
design, which last is not at all probable
General Lee may be for sound money
and may 30 declare himself in the
course OF the pending campaign Of edu-
cation on the financial question, but
that he will use his official position to
further the interests Of any faction of
the Democratic party, Is not atall in
keeping with the idea that people OF
Virginia have Of their tavorite ex-Qoy.
ernor. President Cleveland entertains
o high regard. for General Lee person-
ally and no doubt was glad OF the oppor.
tunity to testify his esteem. Politics
had nothing to do with 1t, further than
the fact that General Lee is q Demos
crat above reproach.

ACADEMY OF MUSIC

The Comic Opera, "Trixie," Given to a
Small Audience Last Night.
Handicapped by the absence of m usic,
which was un avoidable, the company
presenting "Trixie" ut the Acsd emy
last night showed to very poor adyan-
sage, as they were unable In conse-
quence to introduce several specialties
winch they claim are some of the best
features OF their repertoire. 1t Ia to be
hoped that this is the case, and that to.
nights performance. which an an
nouncement from the stage stated
would be accompanied By an orchestra,
VIII snow an Improvement over that of
"Trixie," Taking the incomplete ar
arrangements for last nights effort
into consideration, extended criticism
OF the company will be deferred for the
present.
The audience present. while compar.
at'vely small, was largely made up of
the fair sex.

DELIGHTFUL CONCERT.
Tho Swedish Quartette of Boston at
Y,MC q. a Hall


One Of the best and most ENJOYABLE
musical performances that has ever
been given in this city was the concert
by the Swedish .Quartette Company at
the Young Mems Christian Associa lon
hall last night Every available sea t
in the house WAS filled and it would have
been hard to have found a moro sppre-
ciative audience. The we'll arranged
programme, as was published in TIE
TIMES, was carried out and one of the
evidences OF its worth was tho fact
that every one o. the ten numbers YVES
encored and some CT them moro than
once.
The delightful singing By the mem
bers OF the quartette was interspersed
with some equally deligh tful recitations
by Miss Jose Barden, who is charming
in voice and manner and ia gif ted with
rare talent in her line. Sho com bines
with it nm attractive face and grace Of
movement which delight the eye, while
her voice catches tho ear. Miss Vida
SkooR played the piano accom- psniment
in manner which showed that she uu-
derstands the art OF meditation thor
oughly. Mr.. A E. Skoogs baritone
solo was very pleasing and captured the
audience, while the rendition by w. E.
MCPHERSON, the basso, OF The Friar OF
Orders Grey" was perhaps the best
thing OF its kind ever heard in Roanoke.
Charles A. Skoog and George Laurin,
the tenors, have voices wonderfully
sweet and clear.
At the solicitation of nun Der of tho
musical people Of the city, the quertette
have decided to give another concert at
the same place tonight. There will be
com plete change in the program and
the same prices will prevail.

the recent victories, the end OF tho road
to be traversed by the empire in the
march OF civiliz alton has not yet boon
reached. He hopes therefore that all
will guard against observation-disclosures
and ever in a spirit of modesty and hu-
mility strive to perfect the military de-
fenee of the nation without falling into
extremes. In short, that the govern
m ant and people will work to com mon
eud, and strive, each in his sphere, to
lay the foundation Of permanent pros
perity. He therefore W II give no coun.
tenance to those who may offer insults
to other states or injure relations with
friendly powers. especially as regards
China, with whom after the exchange of
the treaties of peacs, friendship should
be restored and endeavors made to in
crease more than ever before the re-
lations Of good neighhorhood.
A statement has also been issued by
the Japanese government denying the
report that an offensive and defensive
alliance has been concluded with China,
and declaring that the commercial ad-
vantages secured by japan will also be
emf Dyed by the other powers under the
favored nation treatment. On the
whole, the emperor shows great mod
GRAFTON in the hour of victory, and the
government sound judgment and dis
cretion in the management OF it's for
eign relations. The policy indicated
towards China is both just and msgnan.
imous, when judged by the rules OF
modern warfare.

THE New York assembly last night
passed concurrent resolution appoint
ing committee consisting of the
president OF the senate, three members
of that body, the speaker and five mem
bers OF the House, to represent the
State at the dedication Of the Chickama-
qua and Chattanooga Military Park and
at the Atlanta Exposition. A bill for
the appointment of commission to
represent the State at the exposition
and appropriating S25 900 for the exs
penses Of the same was also adopted
The persons named in tthe commission
were Governor Morton, Mrs. a. Howard
Townsend, Mrs. Donald MCLEAN and
Mrs. Henry b Plant. Such friendly
interest," on the part of the empire State
OF the North in the enterprise OF the
empire State of the South augurs we II
for the full success of the exposition,
since the example OF New York will no
doubt be followed by other States OF the
Union.

THE INTEREST IN THE SOUTH.

Reports from the North and West
and from the South itself, show not
only that great interest is manifested
in the first named sections in Southern
lands, but that the tide Of immigration
has turned in this direction and Is in
creasing steadily. Georgia seems jus.
atpresent to be receiving the largest
accessions from Northern and Western
farmers, but all the States of the South
from Texas to West Virginia, are reap.
Ing benefits from the flow OF settlers in
this direction, while interest in immi
grafton Is constantly increasing. While
the attention OF home-seekers Is turned
to the South as desirable place to live
in is must not be supposed that they
will select a locality Of which they know
but little. To draw these people to
Virginia every county should put forth
extra exertions in making known Its
advantages and possibilities.
Without, in any sense disparaging
other States Of this section 1t can with
truth be said that in mono are sttrac.
tions greater for immigrants than those
of Virginia. With delightful cli-
mate, refined and hospitable people, a
kindly soil, good educational facilities
and excellent religious advantages
settlers here would soon be able to
mako themselves independent on farms
that would cost them comparatiyely
but little. Here too they can find
every variety of location they may
desire from 3 home in tho mountains
and valleys Of the Southwest to the
undulating fields of the rest Of the
State that slope gently to the sea. o
grain and cattle, OF fruits and vegeta
bles, fish and fowls they can have
enough and spare If they will only pu
forth half the effort needed in some O.
the bleak and chilly lands of the NORTH
aid West to earn livelihood.

THEODORE TIE RIPPER.
Preliminary Trial of the San Francisco
NIulti-Murderer,

Preliminary Trial of the San Francisco
Multi-Murderer,
SAN FRANCISCO, April 22.-For hours
before the preliminary examination OF
Theodore Durant was commenced to-
day five thousand .people surrounded
the hall and filed the approaches. The
prisoner looked pale and concerned, but
showed no emotion.
Then the name of A. E. Williams,
the father of the dead girl, was called,
bat in his place young woman rushed
to the stand. She gave the name of
Williamson and said that she would be
the one to Judge Durant and ordered
hi released. The woman was subse-
quently identified as Laura Lucy Gould
Williamson, OF ITO Leavenworth street.
She declared herself to be an "Emissary
OF God" She disappeared after being
removed from the courtroom.
A. e. Williams then took the stand
and identified the pocket book found in
Durant's overcoat as one he had given
to his daughter.

The fact has been demonstrated
by the thousands OF testimonials the
Mayors Drug Company, of Oakland,
Md, has received since IL sent it's
famous Mayors Magnetic Catarrh Cure

cine on business principles, and q
patient Is not required to buy the medi-
cine by the dozen to get a cure. The
Mayors Magnetic Catarrh Cure sells
for 81 per bottle. one bottle to last for
a three months treatment bottles is
the highest record ever required to com

and sticks, placed them on the heap
and fred 1t. One of the women said
that their victim turned over after the
hair had all been burned off his head.
Wood was added to the pile until

and liver. They refused to burn and
were taken away and buried.

gan, Mary Davis and woman called
Jenny" Sim Jernigan, it Is said was
the one with whom the quarrel began
and who struck the blow which felled
Mr.. Murphy and is the negro who es
caped after being taken into custody.

went to the Bucslew Place. where they
were told the prisoners were being held.
IN nj,
groes or their captors were to be found.
search was made OF the surrounding
woods and In a short time three men
were found hanging from one tree and
the woman from another near by. The
sheriff began an investigation but was
unable to get any facts as to who COM
posed the mob.
