Order Already Preparing for Big Out-Door Show that Will Take Place
Next SummerLooking for a Good Company. Richmond is assured of one street carnival at least, next summer. -. The Eagles will try again and feel confident that the affair will be botn a success from an entertainment as well as financial standpoint. Already the Eaerles are in correspondence wi th three of the leading carnival comp nlea of the country and will close contract Just as soon as it is expedi ent to do so. The Eagles have had but one try at the carnival business. That was last summer, when they brought the Robinson carnival company to this city and held forth for a week at the erounds south, of Glen Miller entrance. The Robinson company at the time the Eagles engaged It, had a splendid reputation and was really carrying some f the most meritorious shows of the kind on the road. Just before reach Ing Richmond, however, trouble be tween the Robinson company and the Individual show managers traveling urtfh it. caused a number of the best attractions to drop their engagement and consequently Richmond people did not see the Robinson company at Its best, and the Eagles did not make the money which they might otherrisn have done. TTinnch hsmnered bv some bad weather and with a carnival company not at its best, the Eagles cleared ssuu and for this reason feel encouraged to take up the project next year. Ferari Bro3. set the highest mark in the carnival world In Richmond, when they .appeared here under the auspices of the Red Men and it is the intention of the Eaeles next season to get a com pany which will equal if not eclipse fhat event.

THE WRITERS. Dr. Conan Doyle, Richard le GalXlenne, Sir Frederick Pollock, Mr. Iceland and the late Professor Allen have made Surrey, England, quite a literary center by taking up their residence there. Tlctor Jingo had a very exalted bplnion of his own Importance. Walking with a friend one day, he abruptly asked, "Can you Imagine what I would ay to the Creator should I meet him?" Yes, replied the friend. "You would B7, 'My dear confrere:" Justin McCarthy, the historian and ex-leader of the Irish party. Is now living In retirement at Westgate-on-fiea.

In his authorship of "Upland Game Birds" he was associated with President Roosevelt. Boo and Bah. Boo, the exclamation used to frighten children, is a corruption of Bah, the name of a famous Gothic general. It has been used for a terror word for centuries. Wart.

It is probable that a large boiler,
property of the city and now lying in the - river bottom, will be taken to Glen Miller and used in the green house.

SKATING CRAZE HOLDS THE CITY Decfared that Everybody Has Gone "Plumb Daft" Over the Rollers. RINK IS CROWDED DAILY SO GRAT IS THE DEMAND UPON THE RINK BY SKATERS THAT POLO HAS NO CHANCE-THIS SEASON. Richmond has - again gone "plumb daft'' over t-roller .skating. It was thought that the 'fever reached about the greatest height possible last year but from the business done last week at the Coliseum and especially' from that' last night, It seems that, the craze Is here as strong as several years ago, when the people of Richmond skated morning, noon and night. ' Last' night every pair of skates at Ihe Coliseum was rented and Jpr. forty-five minutes after, the doors -i had been closed against skaters, applicants still appli ed The floor of the Coliseum was un comfortably filled with the. crowd of onlookers resembled an audience seen at polo games. - i Mace Byers, who is floor manager at the Coliseum, said last night that in the face of the present" demand for roller skating there was little likeli hood of an Independent polo team be ing formed. After the holidays the skating fever may die down to some extent and then the Richmond public may be given a taste of polo. Marriage License Record.

The peacock is found in a wild state In India, Ceylon, Madagascar and many other parts of Asia and Africa. A Very Old Proverb. The proverb "Necessity is the moth er of Invention" can hardly be traced to one independent source. The idea was expressed by Pereius, the Roman satirist, about GO A. D., and is found In the precise form now quoted in Richard Franck's "Northern Memoirs" (printed In London, 1694) and In vari ous later English writers. Meat Extracts. A medical expert points out that meat juice and meat extracts have a value quite separate from their actual nutritive constituents, inasmuch as they have a direct stimulating action on the gastric juice. Hall In Sooth Africa. Summer showers In South Africa are remarkable for terrific showers of hail, hailstones as large as pigeons' eggs having been frequently observed. Cocoa Island Treasure.

WILLIAM H. LANGDON. San Francisco District Attorney. Who 'Is an Enemy of Grafters. In the sensational graft exposures In San Francisco a leading part has been placed by" William H. Langdon, district attorney. The present mayor of San Francisco, . Eugene . E. Schmitz, was chosen for his post through a coalition between the Republicans and labor un ion organizations. Abraham Ruef, who has been known as the political boss of the city, was recently indicted, with Mayor Schmitz, on charges of accept ing money from the proprietors of dls orderly resorts in payment for protection.Other charges have been made affecting the disposal of funds sent to San Francisco for the earthquake suf ferers. Langdon some time ago sus pected that members of the municipal administration were participating In graft and refused to be longer guided by "Boss" Ruef and became conspicu ous as an enemy of grafters. This re sulted in his nomination for governor of California on the Independence league ticket. The citizens who had organized for the investigation of graft charges em WILLIAM H. LANG DOS. ployed Francis J. Heney, who conduct ed the prosecution of the land sharks In Oregon, as their counsel. District Attorney langdon appointed him his assistant for the purpose of presenting the evidence in the case to the grand Jury. Mayor Schmitz being absent in Europe, Acting Mayor Gallagher, a partisan of 4Ruef, thereupon removed Langdon and appointed in his place none other than Ruef himself. The courts ruled, however, that this ap pointment was illegal, and Langdon held on to his office as district attorney and proceeded with the movement against Ruef and his associates. He was defeated In the gubernatorial cam paign. District Attorney Langdon Is thirtythree years old and a nativa of Cali fornia. - . Ola Apprentice I.Yt.

PRESSURE DID WORK QUICKLY Pennsylvania Company Forc ed to Cut Out Lower Round-Trip Faresr EFFECT OF THE COMBINE THE CASE SHOWS UNMISTAKAB LY THAT NO RAILROAD CAN DO AS IT PLEASES. Pressure by other railroads has in duced the Pennsylvania Company to cancel a tariff it recently filed mak ing a reduction in round-trip passen ger fares. The new rates were to become effective December - 20. The new Interstate commerce law re quires that thirty days'f. notice be given of any increase in rates,; so the lower round trip rates in Illinois, In diana, Ohio and Pennsylvania can not be withdrawn until December 30 mak ing them in effect only ten days. Before the recent reduction in one way passenger rates from - a genera! basis of 3 cents a mile to 2 cents in Ohio and 2 cents in Indiana and Pennsylvania, round-trip tickets were sold at a reduction of 10 per cent, from twice the one-way fare. After the general reduction in one way rates the Pennsylvania Company decided to sell round-trip tickets for 7 per cent, less than twice the one way rate. So strongly was this furth er reduction opposed by other East ern lines that the Pennsylvania has agreed to maintain its round-trip rates on the old basis of 3 cents a mile one way, except In cases when twice the new one-way rate is less than the old round trip rate.. In such cases the lower rate must be charged. Has New Saddler. H. J. Hanes, county auditor, has pur chased a fine saddle horse.

Publishers' Presa.J Berlin, Dec. 2. William Voigt, shoemaker, and bogus army officer, who made Kaiser William's soldiers the joke of all Europe through his impressing a company of soldiers to as sist him in robbing the treasury of Koepenick after making the Burgomaster and treasurer prisoners and sending them away to jail under military escort, will pay the penalty of his crime and joke by serving four years in prison, having been convicted today.

There are few better subjects for the caricaturist than the famous tenor, Signor Caruso, who 'was arrested at the Centraljjark zoo, New York, a short time ago on the charge of annoying a woman. Though Caruso denied he had been guilty of any impropriety and declared to the woman In the case that she had been mistaken in accusing him of annoying her, a policeman took him to a cell In a police station, where he stayed until bailed out and rescued from his predicament by Heinrich Conried, manager of the Metropolitan OpCABICATCBE OF ESEICO CA.BCSO BY CIB. era company, of which Caruso is a member. Musicians are often of an excitable temperament, and it Is said that feiguor Caruso tore his hair and gesticulated frantically when arrested, so that bis appearance during the scene must have borne out some of the humorous sketches of him. Caruso, however, is a caricaturist himself and takes great delight In drawing pictures exaggerating his own eccentricities as well as those of his friends. One of the best caricatures ever printed of the noted tenor is that recently drawn by his countryman, the cartoonist known as Cir, who is now in this country on a visit. In private life Cir Is the Duca di Cirella. . The trial of Signer Caruso before Magistrate Baker in the Yorkville court, Xew York, attracted great publicity. The woman he was charged with annoying, who gave her name as Hannah Graham, did not appear to press the charge against him. Nevertheless be was found guilty and fined $10. He appealed to the court of general sessions and claims that the verdict was unjust. Manager Conried of the Metropolitan Opera company said it would make no difference as to the tenor's appearing cn the stage in grand Q1IJAM
