An ApOchryphal Story.

Editor The News THE Roanoke
Times of August 25th, printed the
following:
"A New York man nWashington
the other day told new story on
President Roosevelt. When Roosevelt
was boy he wore good clothes and
went to a private school. With a
companion he passed each morning a
public school where the boys did not
wear such good clothes. Frequently
the two little dudes had either to
fight or run, and they always fought.
One morning when the strugie had
been unusually sanguinary, the light
of battle shown in yorng Ro' sevelt' S
eye. Say" he exclaimed 10 h s conl-
panion after they had fought their
way throught the ranks of the public
schoolers, LETS go round the block
and come back and fight'em again. :"
We have heard this story in one
form or another about some boy or
other long before we ever heard of
Roosevelt. We rerget that his admir-
ers should resort TO such pocryphaI
stories to establish or keep up his
reputation for animal or personal
courage. r.

ATTEMPT HOLD-UP
NEAR TIP TOP

Tip Top, Va, Sept. 2.-One day
last week young man named
Whitaker, from Abb's Valley, came
down the railroad from Tip Top tow
ard Bailey, and meeting with ssHarve
Baldwin, a colored boy, demanded
his watch, whicn the boy refused to
give up. Whitaker proceeded down
the road aud when near Bailey met
with foreigner, whom he offered a
job on a farm at $1.00 per day. The
man started with him, till tbey
came TO a road-a near cut, To Mud
Fork-when the stranger refused to
go further, whereupon he was as
saulted by Whitaker and knocked
down on the railroad track, and was
threatened with death if he did not
go on. Some of +. G. Wa2ner's boys
saw the scuflle and ran TO the assis-
tance of the foreigner. Whitaker ran
off. A warrant was issued by j. G..
Gillespie that night and early the
next morning Whitaker was arrested
and had hearing and was sent to

What is the Trouble?

A very serious condition OF affairs
exists in Jacksonville district in re-
gard To the schools for the coming
session. 1t seems TO be utterly i'm
possible TO get boarding places for
theteachres in number of localities
wherei is desired 10 have public
school. OF course the school cannot
send a young lady TO teach school in
neighborhood where she can not
obtain board in a suitable family. 1t
would be gross injustice To any
mans daughter TO treat her in such
strange that people who've children
to educate, who have good homes
and plenty to eat, are unwilling,
even for an equitable consideration,
to receive into their homes a young
woman of education and refinement,
at least sufficiently educated and re-
fined for those parents TO be willing
to entrust the training -of their
children TO her If some one else will
feed her. What is the cause of all
this9 Is it because the teachers. have
made such unreasonable demands?
Do they, as class, render them
selves obnoxious to the households
that they have shut themselves and
all members OF their profession out
of the pale of the best homes? If
such is the case (and this seems to DE
incredible) then il is high time for a
new department to be provided in all
our training schools for teachers. But
If the difficulty does not arise from
the fault of the teachers it has GER
tainly arise en- from some cause, and
it has come to such a pass that If a
practical cannot be suggested and put
into operation at once it will be i'm
possible for the board To place
teachers in number of our schools.
We have enough applicants from
we'll qualified teachers bolding first
grade or professional certificates to
fill all our schools, but If we do not
hear from some patron or friends of
the schools who is willing to board
the teacher it is unnecessary for us u
appoint teachers, and we will not do
so.
Respectfully,
J. III. LEWIS, Clerk.

A Steady Drain
Sick Kidneys Weaken the Whole Body
Make You Ill, Languid and
Dedressed.

Sick kidneys weaken the body
through the continual drainage Of life
giving albumeh from the blood into the
urine, and the substitution OF poison
GUS uric acid that goes broadcast
through the system, sowing the seeds
of disease. Loss OF albumen causes
weakness, laDguor, depression. Uric
poisoning causes rheumatic pain,
nervousness. nausea. ciicks In the
back, gravel and kidney stones. The
proper treatment is a kidney treat
ment, and the best remedy Is Doan's
Kidney Pills. Great Tazewell cures
prove it.
j Oscar Mitchell, living near Main
street, Tazewell, Va, says: 81 found
Doan's Kidney Pills to be a remedy of
high merit. About six or eight months
ago began TO have terrible pains In
my back. The kidney secretions were
too excessive, par icularly at night,
disturbing my rest from five to six
times. Doan's Kidney Pills were final
ly procured at Jackson's drug store,
took them as directed and they re-
lieved me 80 much that purchased
further supply and was greatly bene-
fitted. Although i am not entirely
cured, am so much improved that
there Is little remaining of the old

THE CAMPERS
HAVE RETURNED
Jolly Crowd of Tazewell Folks
Spend Week on Banks of
The ClinCh.

One of the most delightful outings
imaginable or desirable was had last
week by party from this town and
other sections of the coauty and
several from other states. The party,
with tents and all necessary camping
paraphanalia and outfit, spent a week
on the Cllnch, at the famous Molly
Hopper Hole, few miles west of
town. The party consisted of Rev.
Mr.. Edwads, of Richmond, who is
summering in Tazewell; Messrs.
Frank Lewis, Roy S. Thompson,
Otis st. Clair, Robert Moore, Estill
Steel, PlOf DC. Gillespie, jug May,
and Archie Buchanan; Misses Mary
Turk, Allie Grey Buchanan, Marjorie
HARRISON, Aylette He lry, and Miss
Bessie Osborne, of New jersey and
Miss ElenOr Meeks of Tennessee, who
are ummer guests in Tazewell. The
party was chaperoned by Mrs. w. G.
HARRISON and Miss j ole Britain.
The tents were conveniently pitch
ed and finely located on the banks
Of the beautiful Clinch, at what is
known locally as the Molly Hopper
Hole, broad, quiet sheet of clear
water, which effords delightful SWIM
ming and also abounds in fish.
So, the young people had various
and pleasant diversions. The young
men found, also, fine hunting in ssthe
vicinity. The campers were visited
daily by crowds of people from va
rious points, and the social features
Of the outing were not among the
least enjOyments by any means.
On Sunday morning Rev. Mr.. Ed
wards held services on the banks of
the river preaching fine sermon,
the audience numbering more than
half hundred, seated around him
on the greass. The country people
from the region round about Max
well and from the Wilderness came
out TO hear, and the sacred day was
fittingly and appropriately observed.
The party broke camp with many
regrets that the outing could not be
prolonged, but with the highest ap-
probation of the skill and thought
fulness Of Mrs. HARRISON, who pro-
NOTED the event, and as long as these
young people live they will remem-
Der the outing on the Cilnch, and the
bright and pleasant summer of 1908.
