Editor Roanokb Beacon : Deau iMK : Mr. W. A. Alexander, who owns one tbe L tka Farms near here, seems to be peculiarly uofortuuate; last year he met with tbe misfortune to lose his barn by fire, iuoiudiug his whole crop of corn, and again this year he met the same bad luck. Ou Friday last his burn, containing ruQ barrels of corn, 2'0 bushels of rice and Several bales of cotton took firo from an engiue with which he was giuuiug, and oousumed everything. There was a small insurance on the building aud engine but his loss will amount to $2,000. Our towu oouimissioncrs met last week, and an effott Was made to past an ordinance Etohibitiug fast driving through the streets, at. it was . voted dowa by a majority of the commissioners, It was somewhat ainu siug to ber the matter discussed; one of the commissioners said he hod no children to bi run oyer by fast driving seeming to care for no ones interest but Lis-.own another said tf any of his children was run over and killed he would not have it to feed and clothe, and several other such flimsy excuses Were made, hence the young people can oontinne to ' go through our town at a three minute gait. r Mr. Henry T. ilassell moved last week from Main street to his old residence ou bixih strel iu front of A..G Walkers.

' ' - F.LI PP.," Mr. EoiTon : As this is your last issue for the year 1 889. and as you say m&k tbe Beacon six months old, allow mo to congratulate you upon your success I littie thought when the Beacon Hashed Its rays before our people, that it would be bere six months, but as yon have held on so long without skipping the country I think there is a chance for you to : hold on longer. From your culumns I see that the business men of our town are not giving you the support they ought in the way of udyer.Ljiug, that is the reason we cannot keep a good paper in tbe town, the men fail to give it the proper support , 8a editor, I went down to the 'Latham House Sunday night to have a little round with Col. L. S. Real, Jack's" pa, who has been stopping there far several (lays. Well I got iu the olQce and shook hands with the old gontlemau, I think bo is the jolliast and best hearted man I ever met, , bat be fore I oould say more tbau two words I was all broke np by some of the kufers . Why man there were so many boys in that office the boarders and strangers had to stand up and tbe clerk, Mr. Smith, be had to stand out on the piazza. We saw one young man walk iu and get mad because he could not get a rocking chair. I think Mr.'bmith must have a good disposition or he would put the inakehoste on some one. Of course I expected to see you, the editor of a newspaper, there but I must say I was surprised to ,see you oocupying the louuge, while men like Mr. Read and I, had to stand up. It ie natural that the young men want to be together but, they should not take charge of the hotel. Weil, Xmas is almost at hand and tbe average child is looking forward to its coming with joyous anticipations, and even the old folks, whose silvery locks Show that they have seen many Caristmas Mays, will gladly welcome its eooriug, I look upon tbe coning ot Christmas as one of the most sacred holidays of our nation, as tbe day draws near it brings together friends and relatives that may have been parted for months, or if by chance some loved one has wandered too far to return and mingle turir joys with the rest around the family fire-side, their thoughts will bj turned homeward. At this time the girl or bay that has been absent at college are returning homo to spend the Xmas voca tion with their pareuts. Parents are busy preparing good things for the young folks, i'onu lovers are bnsy selecting presents for their sweethearts. Then remember tbe little oues, as on Christmas-eve night they hang np the little stocking for Snta Claus to nil, and retire with heart almost burst ing with the happy thoughts of the morrow morning. I suppose the Beacjn will take a week's vacation during tho holidays, if bo let me give you some advice, don't drink too much dram bt-c rase it mizht cause some delay in tbe next issue of the paper. That wire of mine" says if I get drunk Christmas she will go home to bar ma, she forgets her ma, has died eince I got drunk lost, but any way I shall try to stay sober aud enjoy tbe holidays. What has become of my "Tormentor," as he sign hi Jiself.-has he met tbe fool- killer or committed ouioide ? If no accident has happened to him 1 guess he will come out iu the paper this week giving me rat You will please iuforuo him for me, that if he uses auy more slander in his letters that I sha I outer suit, having employed Mr. C, L. Pettigrew, one of the swiftest little lawyers iu the State, Hon 8. U. Sprui.l, perhaps one of the steadiest and most suc cessful attorneys that ever faced a jury, also A. O. Gay lord, a fine lawyer and perhaps as hard a mau to down as ever stood before a B r (I dou'i mean a bar room ) . M r. J. L. Wheodbe has been employed as a body guard and will also appear before ihe jury. On beating aronud the town Wednesday my attention vas called to the crowd that were making for Bryan s Drug Store, so J, out of cariosity went in to see what the excitement was and guess what it was. I was surprised 10 se so many canons things in the way of Christmas presents, I tell you "Jack" is getting to the front, end that elerk, 1 tell you the truth he is a dandy. I bought several presents and left. TLiPP." ROPER I ETTER. RipebTnT C, D jo. 17, '89. Editor Roanoke BraciN: I notica that in a former issao of tne Beacon, you cen. sure the c'tizens of Roper right much for not having enterprise enough to write up tbe news of this pluoo for your paper, so I thought 1 would drop you one or two items this week. The fict is, Mr. Editor, that our people have so much enterprise that they dou't have time to wr.te. Ou, no! is is not for lack of enterprise or because we do not like to see our name in print, but it is because we are too bnsy in tbe persuit of mammon. The A & if. R. ttn is, so we bear, noanng completion. It is graded as fir as Pantego and tbe whistle of the iron horse is heard within l wo miles of the town. Mr. T. W. Blonnt. one of tho moit pros. perous merchants in our county, is already running three stores, two at Koper and one at the Turn Pike, bnt, Mr. Editor, his en. terprise does not stop there, lor we hear that be is actually going to put up another One at Pantego. 'there is one thing needed at Roper to cap the wholo, aud that is an Academy. This being the most certral part of the county, with good traveling facility and being c bve, growing towu, makes it, with. out any exception, the most desirable loco, tion for an institution of learning of any place in Washington county. $2,000 in vested ia a school budding at this plaoe would pay a handsome per cent. we are sorry to statw that Mr. A. r. Wailaoe, a young and highly respected merchant of this place is very sick, also Mr. John Gayiord. proprietor of the hotel. Miss Marttie (Jooper, one of Uoiuaibi t's fairest daughters, has been spending some time in our coraunity visitiug relatives. Mr. N. 1. Uernugtoa an enterprising farmer and jolly old batohelor, of our section, has improved bis plaoe by puting a plank fence in front of his house on tho road. He says his last girl has gone back on him. We are sorry for yon old boy. but you must remember that a faint heart never won a tair lady." I will close before I weary both editor and reader. D. N, Y. Eluctrle Bittera.
