somebody had opened a door through
which she was at liberty to look into
fairyland.
Very far away she heard a voice

that she couldn't.

GUY SHARP.

Dear Mr.. Editor:
The other day when there was moth
ing else to do about the farm work (?)
and have a chat with him and, Mr.. Edi-
tor, am going to tell you fat out how
outrageously mad I almost got at him
and he at me, and what it was all
about. You see it was this way:
Mr.. Diggins has for years been in the
habit of coming to my house almost
every rainy day for quiet chat, and
I can tell you right now, when family
on such intimate terms as we were get
mad at each other they've just got to
tell somebody about it or bust. I'll add
right here though that I am not so mad
at him that 1 won't do him a favor as
1 have done many times, if h.. needs it.
I heard him say sometime ago that
he wanted to grind his axe. He don't
own any grind stone and W. do, and
sometimes my cow gets out in his corn
field, and if you leave off his failings
reckon he's pretty good sort of fell
low.
Well, but the gonebyest funniest
thing that happened was, as [ was pass
ing Bud Tails house. His wife, seems
that she always was little fond of me
somehow, (she used to say my ideas
suited her exactly, she poked her head
DOT of the door, dish rag in hand, and
gave it cute little wave at me. "Well,"
says to her, "Samanthy Tall, that flag
you futtered toward me you might have
meant for the white flag, but for once
in my life, if I can see straight, you
are mistaken. Looks to me more like
the black flag and you had best GO back
in the house and wash it ont white"
Sakes alive! Right then and there that
woman preached my funeral till I be.
gan to think maybe I was already dead
and that I was passing through one of
those awful dreams they say bad peo-
let them rest. If it's tKe last word
I ever speak I did not intend to make
Mrs. Tall angry. It's just a silly little
habit I have of telling folks
what I think and when I got to myself
I just laughed and laughed, just to think
would get mad at such foolish
ness.
AS I was going to say awhile ago, I
went over to have a chat with Jim Dig
gins and as we are usually on friendly

HoPEwELL DESTROYED aY FIRE

Hopewell, the great mushroom city O.
Virginia, was destroyed by fire last
Thursday, practically every house in the
city of 25,OOO being swept by fire, caused
by the turning over of an oil >tove in a
Greek restaurant. But Hopewell will
rise again, even more rapidly than il
was transformed several months age
from a cornfeld to city of $4,000 peo-
PIE. Rebuilding has already begun in
earnest.
Charles Welborn, of this CITY, was
there the day the fire started and tells
of the great confagration tnat eat it's
way like a giant cyclone into the homes
of the inhabitants, the James river
only stopping it's progress. Mr.. Wei
born said while excitement was of course
great, no more so than in any other
town, although the mix-up there of so
many tongues would naturally add to
the perplexity of the situation.
Mr.. Welborn tells of the high price
of land there, which is in the hands of
Hebrew spectators, in the main, how
small investments six months ago have
made poor people independent. rne lots
there are only 25 feet wide and the
price ranges from $4,000 to $4,000,
while rent in a $500 building is as high
as 5000 month.
Mr.. Davis, the contractor who went
from this city there few months ago,
is making good and the Elder Bros. are
coming money. Other successes of local
men are noted. Mr. R. w. Gray had his
market fixtures loaded for Hopewell the
day of the fire, but he was undaunted
and went just the same, expecting to
begin anew with 'greater !1opewell,"
which has applied for charter this
time, but which will sooner or later be
again destroyed if the same fimsy ma
terial is used in the construction of the
houses, which seems evident from neces-
sity for Hopewell must build back rap
idly to house the people and she will
do that very thing.
The Review in sending a special man
to Hopewell last month in the person
of Mr.. w. H. Dugdale and whose arti-
clcs appeared in the issues CT Decem-
Der End and 9th, gave the people keen
insight into the Hopewell as It was up
to the day of the fire, and now since
the fire the people can read more intel
igently about it and appreciate the
magnitude of the destruction.

CITY SHOULD DO THE WORK.

The snow kept the property owners
busy Sunday and Monday cleaning it
off of the sidewalks in order to escape
the law.
The city could well afford to run a
scraper over the streets after the snow
has fallen and before it freezes and take
this nuisance off of the hand OF the peo-
pie, as it would only take a few min
utes for a horse drawn scrap:r to clean
the snow from the streets all over town
and the cost would be insignificant as
compared to the individual cost and
great Inconvenience.
At some homes there are no male
persons or people who are able to SHOW
ell the snow off and it is no easy matter
to get some one to do it within the
stipulated time.
