washington County Roads.

We have conversed with one of our citi-
zens who has recently been over the roads
in the eastern portion of Washington coun-
ty, and from his,and information derived
from other sources, we think it would be
we'll for those who have charge of the road
business in Tazeweil, to look to the good
work of our neighbors in this respect. The
roads in the eastern portion of Washing
ton county, especially the Glade Spring
District, is pronounced simply better than
than anthing in Southwestern Virginia.
They had the wisdom to have q Law al
lowing levy Of % cents on the 500 fol
road purposes, and with this they first
placed the roads on good grade and then
expended the residue in such way as to
make it thing of pleasure to travel in
that section.
With the roads on grade, two horses can
transport the load of four horses under old
road system.
We all know the most serious drawback
in Tazewell county is the public roads,
Many suggestions have been made for
their improvement but nothing of satisfa1-
tory character has resulted. There is one
thing certain, the roads cannot be made
good except by the use of good system
and the expenditure of money. Our
county authorities might profit by investi-
eating the system in the eastern part OF
Washington county.

THE ARMY MULE.
An Admiral That VIII Never Com
mand Respect for It's
Consistency.

Bill Nye and many other humorists
wrote of the army mule and his anus
ing peculiarities, and while there has
been improvement in everything else
in the United States army since the
time when Nye wrote of the long-eared
animal, there has been absolutely none
in the mule himself.
The army mule Is as inconsistent as
O bar without a mirror behind it At
one time he may be found refectively
viewing the landscape, and at another
he may be surprised calmly chewing
the cover off a canteen. The mules at
jefferson Barracks were no. different to
the general run of the tribe, and when
the cavalry were loading on the freight
cars, preparatory to their trip to Chick
amauga, the soldiers had the edge taken
off their disappointment at leaving
friends by the work Of loading the posts
mules.
a big brown mule would walk quietly
up the platform to the entrance of the
cars, gaze into the interior, flap his ears,
and before he knew what had happened,
six stalwart cavalrymen would put their
shoulders to his TANKS, and with bost
and laugh the mule would land on
the inside of the car. Then another
would come along.
Look out for Benz" would be the
cry; -he kicks!" and everybody would
hustle out of the way. A gray-haired
veteran would look along the platform,
and, walking to the pile of fence rails
lying on the side, would select one,
shoulder it, and bring it to the place
of action. While Ben was gazing into
the car, four men caught hold of the
pole, two at each end, and, despite Ben's
struggles, into the car he went with the
pole pressed across his tanks above the
knees. At last all the mules were on
except one, great, rough-coated young
animal, with O wise eye.
Here's Dicki here's Dick!" cried the
delighted men. "Now, what are you
going to doT and everybody expected
fun to come. Dick is the post rogue,
with temper like a hot tamale, and
desire to create row that would do
credit to q self-respecting emigrant
from Donnybrook.
"'Tain't no use to push Dick" re-
marked a young cavalryman. "Dick
amt one of them kind. Anybody that
wants to, can help him aboard, but
you'll have to excuse me-" The crowd
was delighted.
Dick walked to the door of the car.
winked one eye rather wisely, tapped
his ears and then stepped into the car,
where he shouldered his way to good
place, and looked. out through the
Stats.
"Well, I'll be durnedl" said Dicks
friend, "Tm a-goin' to give him chaw

We have received the catalogue of

for the past session was very good but not
as large as the excellent institution de-
serves. The college has at this time a

work for Southwest Virginia and East
Tennessee as we'll as many other sections
of the South. From its list of graduates
many men have gone forth to occupy posi-

profession. There is no reason why its
future should not be as bright and useful
as lis past.
