FarmviIle Asks for New Passenger
Station.


The town council of Farmville re-
Gently appointed committee to con-
fer with the Norfolk and Western au-
thorities With reference to having them
enlarge and improve their passenger
station at this point. The committee
consisted Of the Mayor, Councilman
Erambert aud Town Attorney Wat
kins.
The committee prepared and for
warded the following to the General
Manager of the road /:
I'VE, the undersigned, appointed by
the town council Of the town of Farm
vile, to memorabilia the Norfolk and
Western Railway authorities to build
new passenger station at this place, re-
spectfully represent that the town has
grown very much in recent years both
IN population aud wealth that the
passenger traffic Of your road at this
point has correspondingly increased
that there is a large female school of
over 800 students located here that
the present depot is small and contract
ed, afiording very unsatisfactory accom-.
modations to the patrons of the road.
AT times, owing To the large crowd of
negroes who congregate around the de
pot, it becomes exceedingly annoying
to ladies getting on and off the trains.
We therefore most respectfully beg
that your company will at an early day
enlarge and rearrange the passenger de-
pot at this place. We hope that this re-
quest will meet with your favorable
consideration, as we are firmly of the
opinion that the interests of your road
aud the comfort of its patrons demand
It. Respectfully,

OF Mr. Mckinley, newspaper writers
have been exhibiting lamentable ig-
norance Of the teachings of the Bible. -
Not only the laiiy but the cericals have
become absurd and blasphemous in

The Rev. Newei Dwight Hollis spoke
this morning al the memorial services

Deserving Attention.

the other day that there was no need
Of "A Sycamore Bottom anyhow, that
an engineer Of skill would avoid it at
much less cost than it can be treated.

but the thing just now of supreme mo-

The evening that Mr.. Burton Holmes
delivered his lecture on "Moki Land, +"
last winter, fierce storm was raging
and the attendance was very limited.
The lecture proved to be one Of the best
in the series, and when this years course
was arranged for the committee asked his

"Moki Land"
The large audiences In City hall, last
evening, was delighted with this lecture
and Its Illustrations. The lecturer charm
iugly described the trip across the great
Arizona desert, his visit to the Moki
reservation, the life and habits OF that
peculiar people. and their picturesque
religious festival known as the snake
dance.
The snake dance takes place every sum
mer in the village OF Walpi one year and
at Oraibi the next. In the summer OF
1898 he witnessed the festival or Oraibi,
and year later was privileged to see
repetition of the performance at Waipi.

excellent advantage.
All the pictures we're interesting, many
OF them weird, and the motion pictures
OF the snake dance SO realistic as to arouse
"orawly" feeling in the audience. The
scenes attending Trader VOLTS annual
reception to the Navajos were exceedingly
enjoyed, the pony race, running match,
rooster pluoking race and the pursuit of
an American girl by band of Navajos
being especially exciting.
