The Harrisonburg police are puzzled
over the discovery Of several sticks OF
dynamite and about 10 feet OF fuse un-
der an empty box car on the siding
within few feet Of the plant OF. the
Ha, risonburg Ice Corporation. The
find was made by William Southwick,
who lives across the street. Some OF
the employees at The plant dashed water
on veral negroes recently who were
lettering about the place picking up

censed and it is suggested that they are
trying to get revenge by dynamiting
the place.

The coroner's jury at Virginia Beach
investigating the recent tragic death OF
George T. Comic, well.known farmer

ing Joe Snead, the negro with whom
Mr.. Gornto had trouble shortly before
the finding of his body in his barnyard,
and who is nov under arrest charged
with the crime.

The Eskimos and tho Bible.

Frank Cross, missionary among
the Esklmos, has found considerable
difficulty In using the illustration OF
the Bible in arctic regions. He gives
two amusing anecdotes to bear out his
statements. First, how his Eskimo In
terpreter translated well knowh text
into the following: Every log that
bringeth not up good 'appik' is cut up.
and used for frewood," "appik" being
the Eskimo for dried apples and the
nearest thing to fruit that they know.
Again, of law, justice and government
they have not the remotest notion.
Mr.. Cross nearest neighbor had nun
dreds Of dollars worth Of furs depos-
tied in cache. Wishing to preach
on where Thieves Break Through
and Steal" the interpreter gave up
his attempt at translation, for he SAID
such a thing was impossible among
them.-T. P.'s London Weekly.
