Armed strikers Parade.

ROANOKE, Va, June. 16.-According to
sdvices received by the Norfolk & Western
Railway company today the only deviation
from the usual quiet that has prevailed in
the Pocahontas coal region since the strike
was inaugurated was the parade of several
bands of strikers through the fields this
morning. Some Of the men were armed.
These demonstrations later in the day
were somewhat checked by the counselling
of wiser heads and the later reports indi-
cate that the armed bodies will give up
their guns. No serious troubles antici-
pated.
The numerous meetings Of miners on Sun
day and the marching squads this morning
have had the effect of somewhat checking
the large number of men who have been re-
turning to work. 1t is not thought here that
the strikers have gained many recruits and
II is known that some Of the men who
were on strike last week have returned to
work today,

Senator EIkins's War Record.

Adjutant General Cameron at
jefferson City last week received a
telegram from Senator Stephen b.
Elkins at Washington asking for
his Civil war record. The adjutant
general examined the records in his
Office and found that Senator Elkins
who is a brother to Columbia's post
master, s. HI. Elkins, was COM
missioned captain of Company H.
Seventy-seventh regiment, and en-
rolled in the Missouri militia jan
uary II, 1868, with rank from
December 30, 1862, and held that
commission until it was vacated by
special order 1875, issued in 1864. The
recent refusal of a West Virginia
G. A. r.. post to receive the senator
as a member is supposed to have
prompted him to ask for his war
record,

Some people believe the Negro
is not progressing. The speed may
be slow, but the Negro is coming
just the same. We can remember
the time, when a death occurred
in a Negro family the Choking
glass was turned to the wall, the
clock was stopped, and a few
other charms were hung up and
precautions we're taken to ward
off the evil presence of death.
About the only reminder of the
semi-pagan rites growing out of
the intellectual twilight of slavery
is the big day of funerals, and the
inclination our preachers have to
draw heavy on the "shoutin."
But then, this thing will gradually
fall off, and the Negro will take
his place in the funeral procession
with the saturnine resig nation of
the ancient stoic.-Ex.

Crop Prospects.

Secretary Ellis says the May croI
reports are now being received and
that conditions are highly favorable
throughout the state. Wheat is
more forward now than at this time
last year.
The northern part of the state, Mr.,
Ellis said, is most backward and has
suffered most before the previous
rains. He accounted for this by the
fact that the sub-soil was much
dryer in the northern part Of the
state than in the south. The only
damage that now seems at all prob
able is that the wheat is likely to
grow too rank and fall, especially in
the southwestern part of the state.

That Thomas A. Edison is deaf is
a fact well known to the public. Only
his intimate friends, however, are
aware that in his case deafness is
more a psychological phenomenon
than a physical condition. That
which interests him he can usually
hear very we'll, but to that which
does not interest him he can be as
deaf as the proverbial adder. Not
long ago a specialist in disease of the
ear called upon Mr.. Edison and I'M
folded a plan of treatment which he
was sure would restore his hearing.
The inventor listened to his story
with patience, as it was Informative
on several points. TO the PROPOSE
ton that he submit to the treatment,
however, Mr.. Edison opposed with
an emphatic negative. what I'm
afraid Of" said he, sis that you
would be successful. Just think
what a lot of stuff I'd have to listen
to that L don't want to hear. To be
a little deaf and be the only one who
knows how deaf you are has its adj
vantages, and, on the whole, l think
L prefer to let well enough alone"

COIumbia's Federal Building.

A special from Washington, ID.
O., April 20, says that "Senator
Cockrell secured the passage by the
Senate to-day of a bill appropriat-
ing $4,000 for the construction as a
post Office building at Columbia,
Mo. This action was taken in order
that the bill might be added by the
Senate as an amendment to the ON
nibus building bill, which passed the
House to-day"
1t is believed now that Columbia
is in a fair way to secure the pro-
posed building, though the bill has
yet to pass the House. Col. Swift
Ter, the original promoter of this
improvement, is jubilant over the
prospect for success.

Ask the farm boy why he cannot
stay at school. and he will say, 81
have to go home to work" In towns
where manufacturing is carried on
you will get the same answer. The
teacher has no right to be satisfied
with this answer. Probably in nine
cases out of ten the boy does not
have to go because of the necessities
of the home. That is, the parents
could get along without his help if
they thought it worth while. In
many, many cases the boy himself

I had ervou indigestion and a
general arrangement of the entire sys-
tenn. It had been a continual torture
for twelve years. My blood became
very poor and at times my toe and
finger nails would be diseased. After
eating I would sit in a chair and put
my feet on something to keep them
from swelling. and at times would take
off my shoes for the misery I had.
Whenever I experience anything to
remind me of past aches I cannot be
too elated to tell what Ripans Tabules

Attorney hurry were summoned to

daughter of Nathan Little, de-
ceased. The unfortunate woman
lived in a one room box house near
Cedar Creek, with her two-year-old
boy. Her sister, Mrs. Epperson,
who lived near, vert to the house
Monday morning and found Florence
lying on the floor, dead. NeIghbors
were summoned, who found that the
woman had cut her throat from ear
to a with one stroke of a dull
butcher knife. The only known
reason for the rash act was despon-
dency, as she left her sisters house
the day before in her usual state of
mind. A pool of blood near the
body, the bloody knife, the one door
fastened on the inside, and the other
circumstances, leave no doubt as to
the author of her destruction.
