had more solid, substantial growth for
for the last few years than any other
town in the State. For greater growth
and better railroad facilities we must
have this road. Just now talk and action

LEONARD MUSIC HOUSE,
A Place Where Yuu Can Get Anything
in the Music Line.
"A little music now and then is relished
by the best of men," is a very true saying.
Uimir- i made, in various ways ana by
many difierent instruments. .Vocal music
is among the sweetest. But many who
enjoy vocal music aro .not permitted" to
have it. 'A squeaky voice seldom, if
ever j gives out music that the average
persou can enjoy. But a good piano,
organ, violiu or guitar sometimes makes
that all right. Music has charmed and
tamed the-wildest men and animals on
earth
or other musical instrument in it is gen
e'ally-the abode of refinement. A re
fined man-or woman who does not enjoy
music is a curiosity.
Any person in need of a good instru
ment should correspond with the Leon

eeedinclv kind and have spared no pain
in making the wounded comfortable.
This people has the commendation of all
who have been around the scene.
There are varied and many reports
concerning the cause, and the true one
doubtless never will le knp.vn. Some
attribute it to rottcu tics, other:; that it
was the work of train wreckers,, still
others think that the engine trucks was
was the cause, inasmuch as it was reported
that there was trouble with them the
former trip. Tho verdiot of the jury
given Monday was that it was due a rail
taken up, but it also censures the railroad
for fast running, rotten ties and leaving
tools in an open shed i:i easy aeee.-s to
to every passer b; .
The Richmond & Danville Railroad
Company have oilered a reward of 10,000
for tlie arrest and conviction of the per
son or persons who removed tho rail.
