A SHARP TRICK.
But Not Keen Enough to Evade the Roa-
noke Police.

Hugh Dennis, son of. Rev. Elisha Dennis
anu brother of Nose, who is serving an
eighteen year term in the penitentiary
for an assault on prominent lady here,
IS also In trouble. Hugh resembles his
brother Nose in many respects, being
very much alike in features, and their
conduct is SO similar that the younger
brother seems DESTROYS of rushing right
into the penitentiary. Only one step
further and he will be n fit subject.
On yesterday morning he was fined S25
and sentenced to ninety days in Jail,
whereupon he cursed enc of the police
officers, when the police justice added
another $40 to his fue, which means
thirty days more in Jail.
Hugh will get to work on the rock pile
Tor lo0 days or six months, which will
make it matter of impossibility for
him to do any devilment during next
Christmas, as he will spend the holidays
In Hotel De Traynham.
The charge on which he was arrested
was the larceny OF pair of shoes from
the Salem avenue store of I. Bachrach.
The shoes were pI obably worth 81. The
story of the theft is quite interesting.
About week ago Hugh and another boy
went into Bachrach's store en- Jefferson
street and asked for an. empty shoe box,
which was. denied him. He then went to
the Roanoke Shoe Company, where he
was accommodated. The boys struck
Bachrach's place next and while Hugh's
friend was bargaining for pair, Hugh
was bnsy changing his empty. box for one
that was full. He succeeded SO we'll that
the clerk did not discover the trick until
after the departure of the two boys.
He at once followed the negroes and
Hugh Dennis made for Railroad Avenue,
where he attempted to put the shoes iii
his pockets. He was accosted by Mr..
Backrachs clerk, who demanded the
shoes. At this interesting point in the
game Hugh threw his hand on his hip
pocket as though to draw weapon.
This frightened the clerk, SO he concluded
that discretion was the better part of
7alor and he soon. had brick house be-
tween them.
The case was given to the police and
now the matter has been disposed of to
the satisfaction of everyb body, unless it be
the prisoner himself. AS soon as the
city is through with MIN he will be turn
ed over to the county authorities, by
whom he is wanted for being par tici-
pant in the Sunday row with Sergeant
Jones Mt Vinton, in which the latter
came near losing his life and it is said Is
still in critical condition. Hugh Den
mis- is the brazen negro who started the
row with Mr.. Jones when Jim Mead in
terfered aud struck him down.

CIGARETTE FIENn.

Yesterday evening Tom Faidlcy, who
keeps n fruit stand on 10 wer Main street,
was partly paralyzed, the cause being
excessive cigarette smoking. Last night
he was unable to move his limbs, and
suffered considerably, but I'VE are glad to
state he is resting easier to day. This is
the second time Mr.. Faidley has had
these attacks, and it seems that this
would teach him n lesson Bristol News.

.cIGARErTEs ARE H1GHER.

Cigarette smokers will doubtless be dis
posed to kick when they find that the re.
cent tariff enactment has raised the prices
on these laxures. at the price which the
retail dealer is compelled to pay for
cigarettes now it will be practically mat.
ter of swapping dollars to sell cigarettes
to the smoker at cents per package.
For example, take Old Dominions, My
Sweethearts, Sweet Caporals and Virginia
Brig hts the price on them being raised
from $3.50 co $40 per thousand. At 5
cents this would leave the retailer a
rrofit OF SIC of n cent per box In case
the package is broken and the contents
sold separately it will leave the dealer
less than l cent profit on ten sales. 1t
will result in the dealer having to raise
the price, which will probably be cents
or more. 1t would be good thing 10,
humanity If the tariff were raised SO that
a single cigarette could not be sold for
less than fifty cents, but this does not en-
ter into the question. The facts are thu t
theincreased tariff will have to be paid
by the consumer, and the people who
smoke had just as.well make up their
minds to bear the burden and let the to-
bacco trust grind them.

of the Almshouse, at Snake Hill. She
was indentured to Henkendeff and went
to live with him and his wife in Grand
street, Hoboken. The little one says she
was obliged to scrub the floor, polish
the stove and wash the dishes. She was
sent to school, that being part of the
agreement in the articles OF indenture.
On November II, Mrs. Henkendeff took
the child back TO the Almshouse and left
her there. The little one told Warden
Ryan that her less were all bruised and
he saw that her ear had been lacerated
She said that the Injuries had been in
flcted by Henkendeff because she lost
a pencil. Warden Ryan brought the
child down to court and showed her con-
,iition to Judge Hudspeth. The facts
were laid before the Grand Jury and
Henkendeff was indicted.
At the opening of the trial Senator
Daily, who appeared for the defence, OBJ
jected to the child's competency as a
witness. Judge Hudspeth examined her
and decided that she was competent. The
case was still on at recess.
