Norfolk & Western Secures
Abingdon Road.

Abingdon, Va. Aug. 10. For
several days, a rumor has been
current in this peighborhood to
the effect that Dir. Minges,
president and principal owner
of the Virginia. Carolina rail.
road, had sold fifty-one per cent
Of his road leading from this
place to Konnarock, Va, &c
the Norfolk & Western, the
consideration being one million
dollars. Mr.. Minges was seen
but would not deny or conform
the report. saying that what
had been done was purely q
private business matter and he
did not care to talk ut this time.
Persons in a position to know
say there is not the slightest
doubt that the deal has been
made.
If further proof were needed,
the fact may he cited that j.
w. Coke, of Roanoke, has been
here for week or longer max
ing an abstract of the title to
the lands through which the
road passes.
The general belief is that Mr..
hinges made this deal 80 as to
secure sufficient money to ex-
tend the Virginia, Carolina rail
way from Green Cove, in this
county to Wilkesboro, N. G.
There is also q belief that the
Abingdon terminal of the road
will be extended north into the
coalfields of Russell county.

JURORS SAW KISSES Thrown
These Led Them to Infer the Love of
SuitOr at Court.

Allentown, Pa.-The throwing of
kisses by Harvey Rohr and his wife
to cath other during the trial of the
alienation suit in which Rohr sued
Edwin Layton, his foster father-in
law, for $4,000, was the feature of
the case chiefly responsible for the
jury's verdict of $1,000 in favor of
the young husband.
1t is said that as soon as the jury
began to deliberate several of the ju-
rors were of the opinion that under
the charge the court had delivered
them Rohr was not entitled to dam
ages
"Get out' said a member of the
jury who is a grandfather and has
watched the love game for three gen.
erations Don't tell me those young
people are not fond of each other
because I kept my eyes on them
chiefly during the two days of the
trial and when they thought nobod,
would see them they threw kisses
Another juryman spoke up corrob'
Grating the first, ana declared his
opinion that the way they made
sleeps eyes they We're dead in love
The discussion then ranged chiefly or

MIGRATION OF FISH
FRY IS Determined
STATE WARDEN MAKES HIS
REPORT TO COMMISSION
Marked salmon Fry Are Found in
Places from Bonneville Central
Hatchery TO Mouth of the Columbia
River.

r. +. Clanton, master fish warden
for the state, has just submitted his
report for the month of January to
the board of fish and game commits
sioners and a copy of it has just been
received at this office Embodied in
it is report on the investigation of
the migration of marked salmon fry
as conducted by the warden and it
will be of interest to local sportsmen.
1t follows:
"In my November report to your
body. 1 gave an account of the inves-
tigation along the Columbia river in
order to determine the migration of
the salmon fry which were liberated
from the Bonneville Central Hatchery
on October 10th 1t will be remem-
bered that the fish were followed
and the last marked one in evidence
was taken at a point opposite the
mouth of the Willamette river, about
55 miles below the hatchery.
con January Goth, accompanied by
Deputies Rathbun, Cor and Mitchell,
l again took up this investigation. The
first work was done at Rainier,
which is about "a miles below the
mouth of the Willamette. The first
haul was made near the dock at that
place where we succeeded in captur-
ing twenty-one chinook fry, three OF
which were marked with the mark
used at the Bonneville central hatch
cry while one was marked with a sill
yer wire in the -adipose fin which was
the mark used by the United States
bureau of fisheries. The next work
was done on the Washington side OF
the Columbia river, about 100 miles
below the hatchery, where % fry
were taken, six of which were marked
with the Bonneville mark and one
with a silver wire in the forward
part of the dorsal fin, which is also
the mark of the United States bureau
of fisheries. Proceeding on down the
river, hau,s were made at different
points, and, in every instance, a
number of marked fry were in evi.
dence. We attempted to work or
down the river. but owing to the high
tides and freshet in the river, we were
unable to find any place where we
could cast our seine below Crandall's
miles above the mouth of the Colum'
ba river where large number oi
fish We're taken, the Bonneville mark
ranging about 10 per cent Wher
conditions will be more favorable, we
shall take up this work and make
further investigations on down the
river to a point opposite Fort Stew
ems AS will be noticed by the speci
mems in the office, the fry are in flint
condition and are considerably larg
| er than those taken during th'
month of November.
I'm carrying on this experiment,
not only think it is beneficial for tn,
knowledge gained by the department
but it is proving interesting to tn
| fishermen, a number of whom assist
ed us in landing the net and wer
agreeably surprised to learn that tn
fish which had been held at tn
hatchery until they reached sufficien
size to care for themselves before be
+ ing liberated, were in the best con
dition and were found on ther way Z
the ocean,"

An animal affected with the mall
ady walks about day and night until
it drops and in nine cases out of ten
dies. According to the Lexington
stockman, the disease until recent
years was commonly known as "looo"
and was supposed to have been caus-
ed by the eating of the loco weed.
THE theory of hydrophoba, ad-
vocated by the doctors as the cause
of the disease. does not seem to be
reasonable and logical to my mind.
because an animal stricken with hy-
drophobia can never recover. while
some of the horses subjected to the
walking disease. do some times sur
vive the ordeal" said Mr. Swaggart.
IF the disease were coyotes and 9TH
er carnivorous animals become inoc-
ulated with the germs OF this drear-
ful disease and act as carriers of the
same by giving it to other animals
with which the infected dogs or coy
otes come in contact? The dead
horses on the range and in the va
rious pasture are generally eaten by
dogs, coyotes. and carniverous birds
and these in turn would spread the
disease wherever they go.
During the last summer we have
been convinced that the disease now
prevalent among horses and hogs is
not hog cholera and it is very doubt
ful as to whether it is contagious or
not.
Not theories. but demonstrative
facts are needed to bring forth either
preventive or a cure of this dread
full disease.
Jacks, mules and jennets are not
subjected to this malady, but if it
were hydrophobia they too would not
be exempt from its deathdealing ef-
fects
Some of our people are too cred
ulous and accept every theory of the
disease which the would-be veteri-
naries advocate.
I'VE must cooperate and do our
best to determine by the inductive
method of reasoning all that must be
known in order to find either the pre-
ventive or the cure of this very ex-
pensive disease.
This is the only way by which We
must maintain the prosperity of the
stockraising and farming industries
of our county,
