FUNERAL OF WM. NOLTE.

One of the largest crowds that has rer-
haps ever assembled at funeral in Roam
oke was the one that gathered Sunday
evening to do honor to the memory of
VIM. Nolte. After beautiful and i'm
pressive sermon delivered by Rev. Miller,
of the Lutheran Church, the funeral cor
tege formed in line to march to the City
Cemetery, where all that was mortal of
the deceased brother was to be consigned
to its mother earth. First was the ROAR
oke Machine Works Band. after that the
officers and members of the Elk lodge of
this city. Immediately behind the Elks
came the hearse, carrying the remains,
followed by the relatives and friends of
the deceased. On arriving mt the gate to
the cemetery the band and Elks halted
until the procession passed them, then
followed up the rear until they reached
the grave. There the burial ceremony
of the Elks was most beautifully and fit
tingly evemplifed by the officers and
members. One of the most touching and
beautiful features of the ceremony was
the exquisite rendition of "Nearer, My
God, to Thee" by the Dixie Quartette.
70 is estimated that there was present at
the burial between 5000 and 5000 peo-
pie, it being one of, if not the largest at
tended funerals ever held in Roanoke

night at their opening performance. The
pavilion ut Balton and Price streets was
packed to it's utmost capacity, and the
verdict of everyone.is that the show sur
passes in merit many of the high priced
circuses that have shown here. The
ring features are extraordinary and the
acrobatic fents were repeatedly APP
pauded. The troupe of Japanese is one
of the features of the show.
Everything goes with n lash and vim
that is pleasing, showing to the best adj
vantage every performance ann not over
looking the wonderful Intelligence of the

all, the performance is entertaining, in.
stractive and amusing.

LICENSE NOT REVOKED.

W. NJ. Holden some time ago made an.
plication to the hustings court to sell
liquor in the building under Merchants
Hotel and in the absence of any objec.
tions on the part of the adjoining bust
ness men and property owners, Judge
Woods granted the license. AS soon as
it become known that the license had
been granted the Chas. Lyle Drug Com
pany entered itself party slant and
asked revocation of the order of the
court granting the license. The matter
was heard in the hustings court yester-
day morning and n large number of the
business men opposed the opening of II
bar on that corner, as it has always been
stopping place for ladies coming from
and going to Salem. The court did not
revoke the former order and the case was
carried on an appeal co the circuit court.
