Or year by nail, eeataae paid - - S3.00 Onee.ah " " " - - .26 Ooa weak, by aarriar - - - - .08 Iq accordance with an order sent out by the world's central committee next week will be observed by the Y. M. C. A. as a week of prayer. It is stated that Attorney Raynor drew tears from the audience in his closing defense of Admiral Schley. The old water dogs present must have felt complimented by this aquatic display. Mother Bickerdjke, whose name is familiar to tvery old soldier of the civil war, died at Bunker Hill, Kansas, yesterday aged 84 years. Her services in the army were recognized dy the Presidett and highest commanders and she was a privileged character everywhere. A dispatch from Sofia, Bulgaria, says ttat a letter has been received there from Miss Stone, the kidnaped missionary, in which she states that she is well. If this information is reliable it gives good reason to hope that the brigands have no intention of taking Miss Stone's life. It appears that Li Hung Chang lost his life by being thrown into a violent rage in a controversy with the Russian minister to China. He was a wise man but evidently had not learned to control his temper. Thus a valuable lesson may be drawn from his death as well as from his life. Every day our dispatches bring news of more or less bank robberies. The safe is blown open with dynamite in nearly every case. The number of th?se robberies and their success are becoming matters of vital interest to country banks. At present they seem to have nothing like adequate protection. We are receiving numerous marked papers, sent in the interest of candidates for state offices. If we were to copy all these marked notices, as is expected no doubt, we would have little room for other matter which is, to tay the least, fully as interesting to the general public. If all the ideas extant concerning the duties and mission of a newspaper could be crowded into a single issue it would make a beautiful crazy quilt. Walter Wellman, the well informed Washington correspondent of the Chicago Record-Herald.savs that the repeal of all the war taxes contained in the international revenue act and no revision of the custom tariff is the avowed policy of theRepubl:can leaders in congress. Conferences held during the last few days at the White House, participated in by President Roosevelt and Chairman Payee and varirious members of the ways and mans committee of the house, have resulted in a general agreement a'oLg these lines. According to the showing of Dun and Bradstreet the business of the country keeps up at an amazing pace. The fifty-three leadinc cities all made an increase of bank clearings during the past week except two. Indidianapolis which now ranks fifteenth in point of bank clearings showed an increase of 82 jer cent., the largest increase made by any city in the Union. Chicago continues to hold second rank., New York being first, of course. Boston comes third and Philadelphia fourth. Chicago's increase was larger last week than that of either of these four. A good deal of new capital, new blood and new enterprise are coming to this city now. Changes are taking place the e?Tect of which will be felt and seen at no distant date. Good opportunities, not apprec'ated by our own people, have loi.g been lying around loose here. Gradually they have become known to outsiders and are beginning to be picked up by them. New railroads and traction lines are destined to largely increase the business of this community within ; a comparatively short time. Practically . they will double its population by increasing thefacili-

ties ofi our neighbors to cret here. In fact, there is more evidence of a transition condition now in Richmond than there has bea in a quarter of a century. The advantages of this city have for some .'years past been overshadowed by the boom that natural gas irave some of our neighooring cities, bat that cloud is rapidly lifting and the current of business is turning in our favor.

1 The Artists' Recital. Next Wednesday evening Number 23 occurs the Aartists' Recital of the Musical club at the Pythian Temple. Miss Julie Geyer of New York is an eminent young piani&te who has appeared most favorably before audiences in England and America. She is a charming player, having extraordinary technique and with it a musical soul. Miss Turpin of Day ton. O., is known t Richmond people and we shall be glad to hear her. &" iMF -4 AMUSEMENTS. POPCLAR LECTURE COCRSK. The popular lecture course may throw any amount of bouquets at its managers for this season, from the success which attended their initial offering, last evening. It was superb. The audience, too, was a fine one and most appreciative. They were much interested. too, in the subject as well as the lecturer. It is seldom that an author -artist is also gifted with the ability to entertain upon the lecture platform, but Er nest Seton-Thompson is as clever with his voice as witb his pen and pencil. All of his writings and drawings descriptive of the personality of wild animals are enhanced many fold by his inimitable description of them from his own lips. Mr. SetonThompson is one of the most entertaining lecturers now on the platform. He has a way of putting things, without straining after effects, which captures his audience at the start and holds it to the finish. TOXHiHT. "When We Were Twenty-One, the great success in theatrical history, will be presented in our city and it offers not only an evening of pure enjoyment, but it teaches a lesson that no parent can afford to miss. This play is in four acts, but never has a play appeared so like real life. The members of the company are all good, and when one leaves the theater one feels a sincere affection for the dainty Phyllis, a warm sentiment for the soldier man, the Doctor and Waddles, while the Imp is every mother's wayward son, who comes to his senses and redeems bis folly. A more beautiful play was never written. It all turns around the foolishness of the lad who had been left an orphan by a friend of the four men mentioned. They had adopted him jointly, but Richard Carew took him to his home and was father, mother, everything to him. When the boy falls into the clutches of the "Firefly" and marries her, while bis friends try to save him, he turns against them all, but more bitterly against Dick, as Carewe is called. There are many complications, and some of the finest and most dramatic situations ever presented, and the whole play is simply perfect in every deta'l. It is so tender that tears are seen everywhere, and yet it is a comedy, full of amusing episodes, which but serve as a setting to the real jewel of the play. comixc;. Watson's American Burlesquers are announced for the Phillips for Thursday evening, the 14:h. Prices are 25, 50 and 75c. Mr. Dave A.

' A touching story of two friends Is ! told by WHllam Beatty-Kicgstou in

Lid "Journalist's Jottings." They were two ortii-ers In the English army who quarreled about some trifle and. although th?y Lad been the closest of comrades, became iu -onsequenee entirely estranged. The fact of their separation was extremely bitter to born of them, and one Christmas day ve of them received from the other a card bearing a dove with aa olive branch. The recipient kept the message by him for a twelvemonth and on the following Christmas sent it back to his fellow officer, who in turn laid it aside for a year and then dispatched it on the next anniversary. Through three successive decades, at each Christmastide, the mute messenger was .regularly sent In token of continued friendship uutil a year came when It was forgotten because the present possessor was too harassed by financial losses to remember it. In the course of the Christmas weekr how ever, his wife came upon the card and sent It off to her husband's friend with a newspaper cutting referring to her husband's bankruptcy. The returning post brought her a letter. Inclosing 1,000, and explaining that the sender had just come into a fortune and that in return for this trifling sum. intended for his old friend's rescue, he should keep the Christmas card aa bis most precious possession. The Stalker Stalked. The hunter in pursuit of big game must be prepared for the unexpected. Mr. Horace A. Vachell in "Life and Sport on the Faeiflc Slope" relates the experience of a friend of bis. a man for whose veracity he vouches: My friend was after bear and was accompanied by an Indian guide whom he always took with him on such trips One morning they sighted a large wapiti, which they wounded. The Indian took the trail, but the hunter, knowing the habits of wounded deer, took a short cut across some hills, hoping to get another shot at the wapiti as it crossed a certain divide. lie reached the divide and climbed a tree for a wider outlook. Presently the wapiti came slowly up the steep slope; the Indian followed, knife in hand, and then ln-hind the Indian, not forty yards intervening, waddled a huge bear. So intent was the Indian upon h's quarry that he was unaware that he. In his turn, was being tracked till a bullet whistled past his head from the hunter's rifle and laid the bear low. That was a surprised Indian! Shoemaker's I'nlqne Bill. Many are the stories told of people who have charged high prices fot "knowing how" to do various kiu:ls of work, but It remained for on old cobbler in a Massachusetts town to add a hitherto unconsidered item to his biil. lie was clever at his trade, but as the years went by he showed a growing distaste for steady work ami was Ij-vi, tated beyond measure if any one tried to hurry him over it. An insistent customer who, unmindful of past favors, had drawn the cobbler away from his peaceful contemplation of sky and field from his doorway to patch a boot for her found her footwear on the porch when she returned from a walk that evening. It was wrapped in a newspaper, and In the boot she discovered a piece of paper on which was scrawled this remarkable bill: Miss Ann to J. Br:ggs, Dr.: One patch Pester 10 Total TO 25 Youth's Companion. The Streets of Adelaide. The streets of Adelaide, Australia, are laid out as regularly as those of Washington or Philadelphia. They run due north and south and due east and west. The danger of rectilineal stiffness is avoided by the skillful interpositior of squares and gardens. King William c'.reet is 132 feet wide and has souit magiiilicent buildings of white freestone taken out of quarries fifteen miles from the city. But most beautiful of all is Xortb terrace, with its museum, its art gallerythe best In Australia its library. Its School of Mines and its botanical gardens. The gardens cover more than a hundred acres and are an inexhaustible delight and instruction. Under wide spreading trees, many of them introduced from the old country, are dazzling flower beds and leafy walks. There are rosaries, too. and palmhouses and museums of economic botany that would do credit to Kew Itself. 1 " War Himer. One of the first fruits of the victory at Waterloo was to cover the lords of England with honors and decorations and the people witb taxes. Great distress followed, and riots were frequent. In the year of the reform bill a mob broke Into Downing street, says a writer in Temrle Bar, and approached the sentry stationed at the door of the foreign office, crying: - "Liberty or death r The sentry lowered his musket. "My lads, said he. "I know nothing about liberty, but if you come a step farther I'll show you what death is!" There were "iron" soldiers as well as an "iron duke" in those troubled days, and huuior was a tr:9e grim and harsh. ; Wily Talleyrand. Louis Xt'Hi complimenting Talley-! rand one day upon his abilities, asked! him how he had contrived first to overturn the directory and finally Bona pprte. The wily diplomat replied, witt charming simplicity: "Really, sire, 1 have had nothing to do with this There is something inexplicable about me which brings ill luck on the govern ments that .neglect me.
