Norfolk. April 1s.-Those in a posd-
ton to know say that the purchase Of
the Norfolk and Southern railroad
tracks and properties by the Pittsburg
(Pennsylvania) interests. controlling
the Chesapeake Transit Companys
electric line from Norfolk to Cape Henry
and Virginia Beach. can that the
Norfolk and Southern. heretofore con-
trolled by the Vanderbilt interest, has

most advantageous point along the en-
tire Atlantic Seaboard for deer, water

n others say that the great brake

disc piers that have so long been talked
about for Lynn Haven inlet are now
practically in sight.
The officers OF the Norfolk and South

folk to New York last week and a meet
ing was held in that city Friday, at
which the Norfolk and Southern. with
| its tracks and all properties in Eastern

Company and the continental Trust
Company, OF Pittsburg. who are said TO
be the direct representatives Of George
]. Gould in this transaction
With the Norfolk and Southern rail-
road, which has a trackage of 149 miles.
the Gould or Wabash interest secures
a large interest in the Norfolk and
Portsmouth belt line railroad. which is
owned principally by Pennsylvania
railway interests. The Goulds control
the Tfdewater Railway Company, which
has a charter to come to Underwater
from West Virginia. and the plan. il
now appears is to come in back OF
Portsmouth on the tracks of the belt
line, cross the eastern branch to the

High Pressure DAYS.

Men and women alike have to work
necessarily with brain and hand to hold
their own nowadays. Never were the
demands Of business. the wants of the
FAMILY the requirements of society,
more numerous. The first effect of the
pra1seworthy effort to keep I'D with
these things is commonly seen in a
weakened or debilitated condition of
the nervous system. which results in
dyspepsia. defective nutrition Of both
BODY and brain, and in extreme cases
in complete nervous p~rostration. 1t is
clearly seen that what is needed is what
will sustain the system, give vigor and
tone to the nerves. n keep the diges-
tive and assimilative functions healthy
and active. From personal knowledge,
we can recommend Hoods S~arsaparilla
for this purpose. It acts on all the vital
organs, builds up the whole syst m
and fits men n women for these high
pressure days.

RAINS THREATEN CROPS
WET WEATHER CAUSES COTTON TO
 GROW roo FAST.
sCOmmfssioner Poole of State Agricul- turnl Department, Enthusiastic Over Fruit Crop and Corn,
 in Alabama.

Tn his report of crop conditions in Alabama for July Commissioner R. R. Poole of the State Agricultural Depart ment. finds a decided improvement ex- cept that the continued rains have threatened the health and the stability of the cotton crop.
 These rains cause the cotton to grow abnormally fast and 1t fails to take on sufnciency of fruit. The corn crop of Alabama is especially fine and good word Is said for the abundance of the fruit crop.
 The report in full is as follows:
 Since our last report, our correspon- dents advise us that rains have fallen tn almost every section of the State; in some localities there is fear of having Zoo much rain causing the cotton to grow abnormally fast, and a failure to take on sufficient fruit. The crop is still two weeks late. but generally speaking. is in fine condition, with bright prospects for a good crop.
 Corn is fine In almost every section of the State, and bids fair for a boun- tiful harvest.
 Fruits. especially peaches. are very line. and are now being shipped to Northern. Eastern and Western mar kets in large quantities. There is great interest being manifested in peach growing in Alabama, and the time Is not far distant when our State will be one of the greatest fruit grow ing sections.

 MISS ANNIE RHODES.
She Drew Revolver From Parasol and Fired, the Ball Lodging in Abdo- men--Stewart Prominent
 in Politics.

Elba, July 13.-(Special.)- )-S. M. Stewart, prominent locally as a poli- tician, was shot to-day with a 41 Colts revolver in the hands of Miss Annie Rhodes. and is expected>to die in a few hours.
 The shooting is said to have grown out of statements made by Stewart which were damaging to the character of Miss Rhodes. who is a sister of the wife of Stewart
 Stewart was at the baseball grounds in the act of buying a ticket when Miss Rhodes walked behind him, drew the revolver from her parasoI and fired. Only one shot was fired. the ball en- tering the back and lodging in the ab- domen. The wound will prove fatal.
 Officers at once placed Miss Rhodes under arrest. She declines to make any statement for publication. It was several weeks ago when a local scan- dal, 1t is said, was bruited, and re- garding this Stewart is alleged to have used the name of Miss Rhodes. No date for a preliminary trial has been fixed.
 Stewart has long been active in the politics of Coffee county. and in 1900 was the nominee of the Democrats for sheriff, but was defeated. He was a deputy marshal under the Cleveland administration.
 Miss Rhodes is a member of an ex- cellent family of Pike county and has relatives here who are prominent. The affair to-day was the cause of much excitement.
