strIbIInq Springs Road.

Messrs. Cushing, Sheets and Coch-
ran, who compose the Beverley Manor
road board, were in North River Gap
looking over the proposed new road
from Stribling Springs to Stokesvllle,
the new station on the &. w. Ry. last
Friday. The train in which they went
up from Harrisonburg. was the first to
pass over the new bridge at North
River, and made the nearest approach
to Stokesville any train at that time
had made. The track was laid this
week to the end of the grade, ana Is
now being fully tied and spiked down.
The heavy steel bridge which spans
North River at that point was finished
that day and the false work Knocked
from under it. The road is laid with
80 pound steel rails and as soon as bal
lasted will be as fine bit of railroad
as is in Virginia. The board went over
the line in company with Mr.. J. G.
Horn, Supervisor M. Bruce WhitmOre,
Capt. II. B. McFall, Mr.. E. w. Jack.
son, Chief Engineer of the q. W. Ry.,
Surveyor j. G. Myers, and possibly
several others, and made an examlna'
ton of the route. When they return
ed to Stokesville very sumptuous
dinner was served by Mr.. and Mrs
Harry Phelps, who are in charge o.

thine thereafter started for Harrison
burg on special train. They lef
Stokesville at 1.20 and stopped a

LAND DAMAGES IN HIGHLAND.

It is about settled that the W. Va.
Central syndicate will get the Western
and if SO they will couple
it up with that system and also couple
themselves up with the Wabash. This
ends any chance of the w. Va. Gen.
trail building over into the Valley
through Highland and Pocahontas
county, W. Va. The only hope High
land has, therefore, for railway is
through the Chesapeake Western. For
some time the agents of this road have
been taking rights of way through that
county, and have been making head
way, but we learn from the company
that while the people are willing to
sell right of way that the figures are
enormously hirh-so high as to be
very discouraging. Great hope was
entertained that Highland people
would meet the road half way, and that
the right of way through that county
would be at nominal cost. But we
learn that often $50 per acre is asked
and seldom less than 800. At thls
rate the right of way alone over the =;
miles of road through that county
would cost between $50. 900 and 500,
900. 1t is hardly possible that High
J land people are serious about sucf
prices. If so. they may shut out al
, enterprise for long time at least
; The road would certainly appeal to tn
court for commissioners, and sc
whether they would not act NOR
/ equitably. These prices for land ar
, certainly long way in advance OF a
assessed prices, and must be Ion
i way in advance of selling prices. Th
people from Doe Hill down by Mellow
9 ell, should certainly make an unusus
. effort to get the road that way. Th
. line down toward Franklin is muc
l the easier built, but is something Ions
t er than by Mcdowell, yet if McDowe
people should prove liberal they Nigh
t procure the road by them. This Is
< great opportunity for Highland az
: she should not throw it away.

contained considerable sum of
money. He missed it soon after
leaving the train, and though he con
cluded that piokpooket had
"touohed" him, he notified the police
and the railroad authorities. It
happened that DR.. Harding, the
well-known Columbia dentist, was
on the train, and he found the purse.
He had to 90 on to Newberry where
he remained some time. As soon
as he returned to the CITY he report.
ed his find to the railroad authori-

man who lost the purse has gotten it
back with all its contents and is most
thankful to DR.. Harding.
