The Summer Dish
Meat is heat-producine. Eat little Of II in
summer little of any heavy food.
Most people eat too much to keep cool.
These are the days for Mapl-F lake and fruit.
Ask your doctor.

Ask your doctor.
He will tell you that whole wheat
IS the ideal food for summer, if the
wheat is made digcstble.
1t gives one the maximum food
value, while creating the minimum
heat.
Let it serve-at least once day
for the whole meal.
But you must have wheat that's
digestible, else you don't get enough
food.
And the part that doesn't digest
is injurious.
That's why we steam-cook our
wheat for six hours. Why we cure it.

A Critique Of a Prayer.

1 hard Mr.. Harry Gaze lecture re-.
Gently and he criticised the prayer we
teach our infant children to make
ever night on retiring-"Now 1 lay me
down to Sleep" etc.
he said 1t was a terrible mistake to
have placed before the mind Of an in
FAINT child every day as a part of a
paryer the thought of death. as in az
should die before | wake"
Is it not serious experiment. this
constant placing the thought of death
not only, but of "sudde.. DEATH" be-
for the mind Of child every day and
day after day of life, and might it not
tend to result in early death?
The mind of a child is most impres.
sionable. 1t should not be allowed to
contemplate death, and especially the
fear of death, habitually. It's teach
1ngs should be the joy of life, OF
health, of strength, OF the Infinite. The
prayer should be uplifting, aspiring.

ARRANGES BOND ISSUE.
YlrSlnlan Railway to EXpend So, $780,
600 For New Equipment,

The Virginian Railway has arranged
for an issue of equipment trust bonds
amounting to SO, $50, 900.
Recently the road issued SIT. .OOO. 900
OF notes for the purpose of completing
the road, and the work has now pro-
gressed almost to completion. These
notes were taken by Redmond & Co..
and 1t is understood that the same bank
ers will take the equipment trust bonds.
These bonds will cover the 1000 new
coal cars recently ordered by the road,
as well as other newly purchased equip
ment, and also about $1,000, 900 worth
OF freight cars and locomotives which
were purchased during the period when
Mr. Rogers was still personally fnan-
cling the building and equipment of the
line.
Less than half a mile of track re-
mains to be put down to complete this
magnificent road. This unfinished work
Is on the great bridge which spans New
River, near Narrows, Va. When this
work is completed, Us it will be by the
first Of next month, the Virginian will
have roadbed reaching from Deep
water, W. Va, to Norfolk, Va, a dis
tance of 442 miles.

WILL VOTE ON REMOVAL.
Supreme Court UphOldS Act Providing
For Election on Change Of Site
In Lee County.

The voters of Lee county will soon
vote on the question of the removal of
the court house from Jonesville to Pen
nington Gap. Such is the decision of
the Supreme Court of Virginia in the
case of Conk, Duncan and others, petit
tioners, against Skeen, judge.
The last Virginia legislature passed
an act authorizing such an election, and
Judge H. A. w. Skeen thereupon order
ed the election to be held. The peti-
TONERS asked the Supreme Court for q
writ Of prohibition to prevent the cleo
ton, attacking the validity of the act in
question. They alleged that although
the legislature hurried the act through
under the plea of an emergency, no
emergency appears in the body of the
bill.
The court in refusing the petition
holds that the passage of the act was
right and proper, and that the emer-
gency provision does not, at this late
day, operate to estop the submission Of
the question involved to the vote Of the
people.
This action presages warm times in
Lee county. Propositions to move
county seats always arouse much feel
ing, and it is probable that earnest
fights will be waged on both sides. It
is presumed that Judge Skeen will at
once order a special election to decide
the matter.

Are Knocked Ont

Lynchburg, Va, Dec. 5.-Bv ma
Jority of 1876 out of a total of .s5s
votes, Lynchburg today elected to do
away with the licensed liquor saloon.
and unless a contest should intervene
the thirty-four saloons, two wholesale
places and three beer agencies will 90
out of business. The followers of the
Anti-Saloon League by and through
which the fight was made against IL
cense, are jubilant over the result.
1t became apparent early in the after
ternoon that the "wets" could not win
and from that time until the closing of
polls their leaders worked as though
they knew they were doomed to defeat.
Their Trojanic efforts, however, were
maintained until the city clock struck
five, and the last vote had been polled.
Following is the vote as cast:

GOES TO COMMISSION.
New Railroad Seeks Arrangement With
Norfolk and Western

Norton, Va, Dec. THE Interstate
new railroad which has lust COM
menced to run trains into Norton from
Stonega, in this county, has been irving
TO make arrangements with the Norfolk
and Western to use their depot and nas-
senger station here, and having failed
to get the proper concessions the mat
ter was taken up by the Norton board
OF trade. The board of trade carried
the controversy before the State Cor
poration Commission, and Commissioner
Joseph E. Willard made trip to Nor
ton to look over the situation. That
was several weeks ago. A letter has
been received by the board of trade
from the commission, signed bv Mr.
Willard, to the effect that the board of
trade must submit its claims in writings
and argue the case before the commits
sion, as the Norfolk and Western will
protest against letting the Interstate
Railroad in. The Norfolk and Western
depot Is at the extreme east end Of the
yard, while the rights of the Interstate
terminate at the extreme west end of
tne yard, about a mile from point to
point This necessitates q transfer of
passengers from the Norfolk and West
ern TO the Interstate, and vice versa.
1t is probable that the fight will be a
spirited one, in which the board of trade
on behalf of the travelling pnblic will
take hand.

LUTHER MEADOR KILLED At HORTON.
Shot Which Ended His Life Fired By
Erwin Dean-NOW LansuiShinS
In Wise County Jail.

Norton, Va, Dec. Tone of the sad.
dest tragedies that has occurred in this
entire section was the murder Of Luther
Meador Saturday night. The young
man was son of L. F. Meador, who
came here from Summers county. w.
Va, about three years ago.
Young Meador came here from Rich
lands, where he held position, Satur-
day afternoon, and Saturday night
while on the street, met several young
men near the Norton Coal Company
store. One of the crowd-Rrwin Dean
had been drinking heavily, and while
they were talking, Dean, without any
known provocation, pulled pistol and
fred three times at young Meador, who
fell mortally wounded. He was carried
to the home of his parents, where he
died about 2 O'Clock Sunday morning.
Only few short words-which could
not be called row-hquor and ready
gun, tell the tale of sadness and woe.
Dean went to his home after he had
killed his man, went to bed and was ar
rested there this morning by the Off
GERS. Dean appeared greatly shocked
when told what he had done the night
before, and the impression lie that he
did not know what he was doing when
he did the killing which, by the way
does not lessen the offense.
Dean was given preliminary hearing
before the acting mayor here yesterday
morning and was sent on to Jail al
Wise, the county seat.
The remains of young Meador were
inferred in the Norton cemetery this
afternoon. His father is a respected
merchant at this place, and his mother
is known as most excellent lady.
