SUGGESTION Worth Considering.

Editor Herald:-Now that the town
has a flourishing Library Association
the next thing in order will be to find
suitable quarters for the library. If
we are to have a library building
should we not have a better opera
house than we now have ? With a
seating capacity Of not more than
three hundred it is impossible for the
management to book the best class of
entertainments; and Just on a par with
our present opera house is our armory.
The improvement of these buildings
is a pressing need, and each enter
prise interests different element in
the town
May offer a suggestion with refer
ence to these matters Why not
pull down the present armory and sell
the lot (which is in the heart of the
business section) and erect on the
site of the present opera house a
three story building containing an
armory and town hall on the ground
floor, opera house on the second
floor, and library on the third floor
or, opera house and library on the
second floor and on the third a set OF
well equipped offices?
This scheme, being divided on the
plan of all Gaul, " would interest
nearly every citizen of the town, the
combination would make a handsome
building, and the cost of each enter
prise would be materially lessened.

LENA RIVERS.
PATHOS AND PLEASURE HAPPILYsCOY
BINED.
A Scene From Real Life ImpFeSSlVely
Presented.

Before an audience that crowded
every inch of space in our opera
house, Lena Rivers and her accom-
plished assistants on Friday evening Of
last week, presented the popular per-
Torrance in which she shines out as
bright, particular star, to the delight
of all who witnessed it.
The hearts of men are easily moved
by the story of orphanage, and when
the orphan happens to be a girl Of
pleasant features, graceful mien and
whose radiant smiles shine out
through falling tears, the interest
deepens and becomes itself pathetic.
The old home mothers grave and
Joel the rustic but honest lover are
exchanged for the palace of luxury
and then suspicion begi S its cruel work
and trials come thick and fast Now
and then Lena bends beneath the
weight of sorrow but never once does
she yield in the fight in defense of
mothers memory and her own good
name. Vindication comes at last and
with sweet calm and restraining joy
she greets the glad hour.
The support is excellent, and with
striking naturalness reproduce the
scene Of the proud woman, the mis-
understood husband, the suspicious
of the lover the bearing Oh the old
time butler and the refreshing twk-
wardness of a country boy in city
home.
Farmville rarely enjoys play of
more genuine merit.

Creamery Notes.

Two dairymen Of brakes Branch
are now shipping cream to the Farm
vile Creamery.
During the Fair large milk produc-
er from Appomattox called upon Mr.
Keys, who at once interested him in
the Creamery, so the first shipment
from Appomattox came in Monday.
Cumberland county, or that part OF
the county adjoining Farmville, sent
in nearly thousand pounds of milk
Monday If present plans are carried
out Cumberland county alone will next
summer furnish two thousand pounds
per day.
All the new COWS seem to be doing
very well.
The increase in the price of butter
is seen from the prices paid by the
Creamery: May was 25,' June 26, july
26, August 26 ID September %.

and cream from five counties. Plans

FIVE LITTLE GIRLS PERISH.
Presbyterian OFphanale Near Lynch
burg the Place.

Shortly after ( o'clock Tuesday
morning fire which started in the
basement completely destroyed the
Shelton cottage Of the Presbyterian
Orphanage. which is located a short
distance beyond Rivermont.
The cottage was the gift of Mrs F.
X. Burton, of Danville, and contained
twenty rooms, fourteen Of which were
occupied as dormitories by twenty
nine girls and three of the female en-
ployees of the institution. The rest
of the house was used for school and
dining rooms for all the children, with
kitchen, pantry and supply closets ad-
joining
In the rapid spread of the flames
five little girls in the nursery were
cut off from escape and perished.
They were as follows:
Ruby Ray MoorefieId, of Lynch
burg.
Nancy Lucille Moorefield, of Lynch
burg.
Mamie Victoria Reynolds, of Bath
county.
Marie Hickman, Of Campbell county.
Mary Evelina Poole, of Davis,

Ruby Ray Moorefield, mentioned
above, has been cared for by the
Young Peoples Society, connected
with the Presbyterian Church of thii
place, and of which Mrs. S. D. Wal
ton is president The board of Rub!

the lady members took great prld
in keeping her nicely and comforta
bly, clad. Only recently Mrs. Waltol
visited the child at the Orphanage ant
another box had just been sent her
Nancy was the sister of Ruby, ant
their brother is living with Mr.. }. }

gives genuine sorrow to those VIII
were tenderly and lovingly caring TO
her.

AR. j. Taylor Thompson brought to

Of the veterans and President Ewing
gave an instructive and interesting re-
view of the history of the cavalry dur
ing the mighty struggle, that essential
arm of the army which the immortal
Lee characterized as the eyes and
ears Of his forces. He emphasized
the fact that the battle of Gettysburg
was best because of the absence OF
the cavalry, that Forest with his caval-
ry would have destroyed the army at
Chickamauga if General Bragg had
listened to his advice, that Early at
Winchester suffered defeat for want OF
cavalry assistance, and that Sheridan S
soldiers on horse back finally chased
the Confederates to AppomattoX and
to surrender.

the Presbyterian Church. and | am so
deeply gratified by the exceedingly
pleasant things said in that article
about the sermon preached on that oc-
casion and the importance OF the sub

appreciation It is an incalculable re-

righteousness in a community when
the press Of that community speaks
out in such an unmistakable way in
support of the work of religion.
