REV ". ?. HINES LOSES ais SERMONS
Holds Railroad Responsible.

The value to be placed on two hun
dred sermons in manuscript and notes is
the perplexing problem to be solved by a
board of arbitration in settling claim
of Rev. w. Z. Hines. OF Norfolk, against
the Norfolk and Western Railroad. The
well-known evangelist has conducted
successful REVEALS through Virginia,
North Carolina and Maryland, and the
railroad company are unable to agree IN
the matter. and have decided to arbi-
trate il. Rev. DR. A. +. Owen, of Ports
mouth. has been chosen TO represent Rev
Hines; Rev. Herbert NJ. Hope, OF Peters
burg, represents the railroad, and these
two will choose a third man ii they are
not able to reach an agreement among
themselves The case is an unusual one
Rev. Mr.. Hines in travelling over the Nor
folk and Western system had the misfor-
tune to lose his satchel containing the
sermons, some clothing and other arti-
cles. The satch was checked, but some
how it got los. All efforts to trace 1t
were futile. The railroad company ad-
mits its liability, bat has not been able
to come to terms with Mr.. Hines as to
the value to he placed on the lost ser
mons. The minister wanted liberal al.
lOwance for the manuscripts on which
he had spent so much thought, time, and
labor. The railroad thought he had put
his figures too high, and hence the arbi-
tration in which so much interest is ielt
Mr.. Hines is we'll known here, having
conducted a revival in the Baptist church
several years ago.

JUDGE R0BERTsoN's CRITICISM

The Richmond papers recently
quoted Judge Robertson, the member
of the Constitutional Convention
from Roanoke City, as having said
al have little patience with those who
heed the lashing of the press and
undertake to voice the mutterings OF
the people. The work OF the Conven-
ton should proceed with dignity and
elaboration, paying no heed to the
scurrilous attacks of irresponsible
scribblers."
What a spectacle Aservant of the
people expressing contempt for the
feelings OF the people. And this very
same gentleman a few weeks ago
aspired to be the Attorney-General OF
Virginia, for the people.
We have not, in all OF our reviews
of the press of the State, seen one
line of personal criticism of the mem
bers of the Convention. All papers
have spoken only of these gentlemen
in their official capacity, and yet
Judge Robertson feels it his duty to
refer to these newspaper men as
irresponsible scribblers."
As a matter of fact, it is but due
these irresponsible scribblers" tosay
that they are largely responsible foT
the activity that now possesses the
Convention, for which the people nc
doubt feel thankful, even though the
honorable ex-Judge does not.
Whenever a public servant gets tc
the point where he objects to having
his public acts criticised by press and
people, he has reached stage where
his usefulness as a public servant
ceases to exist.

Will Take Some Time to
Cool Off.

PATERSON, N. j., February 1.-THE en-
ergy of the citizens of Paterson Is oeins
shown in the making of preparations to re-
build the district that was swept away by
fire on Sunday last. The owners of some
of the largest business houses which were
destroyed expect to begin the erection OF
new and finer buildings as soon as the
ruins Of the old ones can be removed. In
many portions Of the burned area. however,
the fire Is still smoldering, and nothing can
be done toward clearing away the debris
till the flames have been completely extin-
guished. Last night there were many
small blazes In different parts Of the ruined
section, but the fires are gradually burn
ing out.
Militiamen are still on duty in the streets.
but the regulations have been relaxed and
citizens are allowed to pass freely through
the lines Of sentries. The liberty thus al
lowed Is the result Of the excellent order
which has prevailed. There has been no
disorder. and the soldiers have had a COM
paratively easy task In the work Of guard
ing property.
Today street car service was resumed in
different parts Of the city.
The schools were reopened today. The
pupils that attended the schools that were
burned are being accommodated In those
that escaped the flames. The high school
pupils have found quarters in the normal
school building and have been supplied with
books and other school equipment by the
state and city authorities.

BERLIN, February 11.-Prince Hen Of
Prussia will sail for the United States on

before that time it Is probable the prince

appear to be President Roosevelt's desire

gether.

have been sent to Prince Henry at THE
Schloss. The prince manifested anxious in
terest in them. expressed his sorrow at
young Roosevelt's illness and said he hoped
he would recover
1t Is understood beth Emperor William
and Prince Henry have sent personal mes
sages to President Roosevelt.
The first impulse of Prince Henry was to
postpone his trip or give it up altogether.
He was advised. however, not to make this
decision, but to bear in mind that his
visit was not personal one to Presi-
dent Roosevelt. but to the United States;
that while a fatal ending to young Roose
velt's illness would limit the Presidents
part in the hospitalities to a strictly official
basis, the remainder of the program might
be carried out. To Secretary Hay and DR..
Won Holleben, the German ambassador at
Washington, will be left the rearrangement
of the program Of Prince Henry's visit If
the illness of young Roosevelt makes such
a change necessary.
