Dr. E. H. Dillard Arrested.
Roanoke, Va., Oct. 31.—Dr. E.
H. Dillard, colored, was arrested
here today for obtaining a horse
and buggy under false pretenses.
He is wanted at Reidsville, N. C.
and will be sent there. Dr. Dillard
is a native of Henry county, Va.,
and made his appearance at Mar
tinsville, the county seat of Hen
ry, some time ago, claiming to be
very wealthy. He made a present,
or rather pretendeded to do so, of
a large sum of money to the
daughter of his old master of slave
times, and deposited drafts for
large amounts in the banks. He
went from Martinsville to Dan
ville, and thence to Reidsville, N.
C., and various reports have been
sent out in regard to his supposed
wealth. Dillard visited one of the
Roanoke banks and deposited
$55,000 of Austral ian^/^bonds,
which were found to { be valueless.
He was negotiating for a bouse
liere and was to pay $8,000Jfor it.
Laudanum Ended His Life.

Why the Apartment Home Manager
v Had a Case of the Bines.
The managerof the apartment house,
a well fed, well featured, well dressed
man, Was standing in the main door
way of his establishment, which, by
the way, is owned by an ont of town
capitalist, who is not the most generous
provider in-the world and insists upon
the flat being conducted upon the most
economical lines. The manager was no<
happy, however fair he may have ap
peared to the eye, and he heaved a long
drawn sigh as a friend approached and
greeted him.
“Wbas's wrong?" inquired tBk new
comer.
“Oh, we’ve all got our troubles"'
was the vague and lugubrious reply.
“You oughtn’t to have any."
“But I have, just the same.”
“What, for instance?"
“Well, I’m worried sick because 1
haven’t got an elevator boy.'’
“There shouldn’t bq any difficulty in
removing that trouble, I should say."
“There is. ; 'Ilve ;: t^ied|#.'a^i|^C:
get one to suit."
“You must be very hard to please."
“It isn’t that," sighed the manager.
“I’m. all right* but it*s this way ?. The
old man insists on having the elevator
boy wear a uniform, and he furnishes
it. Uniforms cost money, and when the
last boy.retired he left a brand new
uniform,"and the old man won’t get
another. That’s the rub. I can find

Trade Has Been Fairly Good.
.Qainesville merchants have had a
pretty fair trade this fall, though it
will be better after cold weather sets
in. Many people db not buy their win

in; it seems to take this to loosen up
their purse strings. The merchants
have bought large stocks of goods and
they expect to sell the bulk of them
from now on.
