NEVER GIVE UP.

1t is the monotoDy even
more than the pain that makes
a long illness SO hard to bear.
Life is like a long rainy day.
One sees all things through
blue glasses and walks in the
Valley of Shadows. The atten-
ton is withdrawn from outside
matters and centred on ones
self. The various symptoms of
the disease, whatever it NAV
be, continually appeal to the
sufferers feeling and fancy
until other thoughts can get
little welcome in his mind.
Sometimes this is merely an af-
fair of few months, and again
it may drag along for some
years. 1t depends on circum-
stances; no two cases are alike.
The words oftenest on the lips
of these poor souls are, ooh,
nothing does me any good; Pm
sure L shall never get well )"
Yes, you will. In spite of your
lack of faith in medicines. let

what it has done for a multi

bic and hopeless as you are.

making a thrifty growth.

To Double-track to Orange.

II il understood that at the opening
of spring the work of double-tracking
the portion of the Midland Division of
the Southern Railway from this city to
Orange will be commenced. 1t is said
that the contracts for the work have
been awarded. The enormous growth of
traffic over the Southern has made this
step imperative, and it is a mere matter
OF time when the entire system from
Alexandria to Atlanta will be equipped
with double track. The company is
now said to be doing the work of four
tracks on one, and with the many and
increasing trains running in opposite
directions the fact that so few accidents
occur is the best evidence Of the skill of
those who operate the road. The Chesa-
peake and Ohio Railroad uses the South
ern track from Orange to Alexandria.
This road has multiplied its trains con-
siderably of late and the construction of
a double track to the frst-named point
will greatly improve present conditions
and relieve the congestion OF trains
which necessarily ensue at times.

Southern Denies Charges.

The Southern Railway yesterday filed
with the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion in Washington an answer denying
the allegations of discrimination made in
the complaint of r. w. Austin, of Knox
vile, Tenn, who charged that his Live
and Let Live Company" founded to
furnish coal cheaply to the poor, was be-
ing Disseminated against in the furnish
ing of carrying facilities The Southern
Railway denies the jurisdiction of the
commission on the ground that the mat
tiers complained of relate solely to COM
merce within the boundaries of Tonnes
see. The defendant denies that there
has been any undue or unreasonable
prejudice or discrimination as to persons
or localities, and says it could not COM
ply with the demands of the complain
ant, which is not a coal shipper, without
unjust discrimination.

Mysterious Disappearancc.

Pittsburg, Pa, Jan. 9-On the night
of September Miss Sarah Harvey,
formerly of this city, babe her friends

A Dismal Experience.

A young couple from some point on
the Washington-Southern Railway went
to Washington yesterday where they
were married. They later came to this
city where they spent the day, purposing
to take the south bound train early in
the night for their home. They, how
ever, arrived at the depot some time
after the train had left and were greatly
distressed to learn that the next train
would not leave tntil 4.27 this morning.
They made themselves as comfortable as
possible at the station until about half
past tour O clock this morning when the
welcome sound of the whistle of the
south bound train was heard. The young
couple took care not to miss this train,
but boarded it almost before the wheels
had stopped revolving.

Opera House.

There was small attendance at the
Opera House last night, on account of
the weather. Those who were present,
however, enjoyed the performance
greatly. The production is known as
1.-THE Power of Gold" Miss June Mora
acted her part well and was much APP
preciated The pathetic parts in the
character she assumed were especially
in essive. The company will con-
clu lie their engagement tonight.
The latest rural drama, "a Country
Kid" will be seen here on next Tues
day night at the Opera House. 1t is
the work of Nesbit Stone Scoville and
will be produced here under his personal
supervision. 1t has been greet ed by
crowded houses everywhere and promises
to be among the foremost successes of the
season. Many prominent metropolitan
players will interpret the principal roles,
and the scenery, costumes and parapher-
MALTA are said to be entirely adequate.

The Weather.

Jupiter Pluvius reigned supreme from
yesterday morning until the wee sma'
hours of last night. The rain fell
necessarily and at times there were
heavy downpours, especially after dark.
There were but few people on the streets
last night--Only those compelled to be
out-and Others who were returning
home from Washington. About two
O'Clock this morning the rain ceased to
fall and after daybreak there were in
dications of a cleanup. The atmosphere,
however, as the day advanced grew
murky and fog settled over the river
and at different times over the city. At
the depots the smoke and fog made it
impossible to discern objects half a
square away. Fair weather is predicted
for tomorrow.
