UNION OF THE CLUBS TO FIGHT DISEASE

Tourist Organization Is Taking the Lead in an Important Movement. MEETING IS BEING HELD. CO-OPERATION OF THE MEDICAL PROFESSION IS ASKED THE CAMPAIGN WILL EE ONE OF EDUCATION. Believing that the people of Richmond should bo instructed as regards the prevention of contagious discuses, and particularly tuberculosis, which has been sweeping Richmond and "Wayne county for .several years, com mittees from various clubs in the including representatives from Wayne county Medical society, this afternoon at the office of Dr. ille F. Johnston to discuss the city, th" met mode of procedure. The various club members realize that but little can be done unless the services of the medical association are .secured, and for this reason it was thought best to secure promises of support from the physicians before the campaign is inaugurated. It was also thought that the physicians would be very willing to join hands with the club membership of Richmond to bring about a change iu present conditions. The whole plan originated with Tourist club members, at a recent meeting. JJr. Charles S. Bond delivered a lecture on tuberculosis, and at the same time made the statement that he thought it would be a good plan, and at the name time a feasible one, for the clubs of the city to join hands in a contagious disease extermination campaign. The suggestion was taken up with much Interest and Guy S. McCabe and Mrs. II. R. Robinson, were appointed as a committee to arrange a meeting of all such club committees, that all might come to a better understanding of the ways and means the campaign should be waged, if it it is generally sanctioned. Education is the means by which clubmen and club women would bring about radical changes in Richmond. THE CITY IN BRIEF Butterick9 patterns. Morris & Co'a.

LETCHER IS BUSY Id SOUTHERN PART

Postoffice Official Has Been Called to Bedford in Unusual Case. RECALL SCHAEFER MURDER TEACHERS THERE HAVE RECEIVING ANONYMOUS TERS AND THEY HAVE ALARMED BY THEM. BEEN Postoffice Inspector Fletcher, who frequently visits Richmond, aud who has been called here on several instances io locate anonymous letter writers and other postal law violators, is now engaged at Bedford, lnd., where the anonymous letter practice has gained an unusual scope. The affair at Bedford still further goes to prove Postmaster Spekenhier's assertion that anonymous letter writers seem to spring into existence at this season of the year in preference to all others. In speaking of the Bedford situation a Bedford dispatch says: For weeks and even months, unknown to the public, the women teachers in the Bedford schools have been the recipients of anonymous letters, containing langutige unfit for publication. Some of the teachers feared for their lives, believing the writer harbored evil designs, and recalled the fate of Sarah C. Shafer. the murdered Latin teacher. Superintendent Fagin and the school board could not understand the writer's object, and the mattcV was finally reported to the federal authorHies, song and Inspectors Fletcher and Suwere detailed on the case. They have been working general public. It unknown to the is now believed that such progress has been made in the investigation that arrests will soon follow. The first letters were received nearly a year ago: every woman teacher, except one. getting them. These letters were abusive and vulgar in tone, and he matter was kept secret by the teachers, and by Superintendent Fair in and the school board, hoping that the guilty party would betray his or her identity. In a month more letters were received, similar intone to those of the first, and this was followed by a third series, the language s-owing that the .writer had some knowledge of school work. Still a fourth series was received exceedingly offensive in tone, and then it was that the women teachers began to fear for their lives, and with difficulty a wholesale resignation was prevented. Then the postal authorities were callimo wie case, ana as i letcner was : well known here, the work was inj trusted to husong. As stated, an arj rest is looked for daily. which were carnations, were presented j by the Misses Karolyn Bradley and Lelia Manfi d and Misses Margaret Price and Martha Williams presided in the dining room. ?

ROMANCE OF INN SIGNS." ! Som of tho Quaint Legends Still to Be Found In England. There would, indeed, seem to be no limit to the number of quaint inn sisfns in England. At King's Lynn, in Norfolk, for instance, is to be seen the ; Honest Lawyer. An old painting i fastened to the wall depicting a law- j yer carrying his head in his hand, im- I plying, of course, that no lawyer is ! honest while his head remains on his shoulders. This is a variation of the better known sign of the Silent Woman, in which a headless womr.n is represented. The Three Compasses is a frequent stgn on French. German and Dutch as well as English inns. The inn of that name in Grrxveuor row. Pimlieo, was formerly culled the Goat and Compasses. Others have suggested that the sign Is a corruption of the puritanh al phrase "God encompasset h us." The goat, however, may have been th.? original sijrn. to which mine host added his Masonio emblem of the compassesa likely explanation, seeing that there is a Salmon aud Compasses at IVtersboroutrh. The sign of the Cat and the Fiddle is supposed to have originated with the nursery rhyme: Hey diddle r"H. lie. ; The cat ar.d the fiddle. But other explanations have been offered. One is that it may have originated with certain ("aton fidele. a stanch Protestant, in the reign of Queen Mary, aud only have leen changed into the cat and fiddle by corruption. If this is so it must have lost Its original appellation very early, for in KkS: we find "Henry Carr. sigue of the Catte aud Fidle in the Old Chaunge." The Bull and Gate, in Ilolborn. at which Tom Jones alighted when he first came to London, probably took its name from Boulogne (late. The Bull and Mouth a frequent signis a corruption of Boulogne Mouth, and both no doubt were Intended as compliments to Henry VIII., who took Boulogne in lo44. An inn at Llaudaff once had for its sign the Cock. But. trade getting rather depressed, the landlord thought be would try the effect of a new sign. He accordingly put up a portrait of the bishop of IJandafF and called the house by that

name. A rival In the neighborhood thought he saw his way to make fresh customers by this change and straightway altered the sign of his inn to the Cock, with good results. Landlord No. 1, hearing of this, was greatly exasperated, and by w ay of checkmating his adversary he bad painted up under the bishop's portrait, "This is the Old Cock!" About a mile outside the little village of Tintwistle is an inn bearing the sign the Shepherd Is a Very Quiet Man. A former tenant of the house, which is opposite the lower end of Torside reservoir of the Manchester waterworks, was Joseph Brownhlll, known as the Shepherd of Wood head. He died in 1839, and his portrait still hangs in the front room of the inn, which is locally known as the Quiet Shepherd. This inn can be seen from the Great Central main lie and is the property of Lord Tollemaehe of Ilelmingham. Near Prestwich is the Same Yet. This was formerly known as the Seven Stars, but a bygone landlord decided to have his sign repainted. When the painters asked what they were to put on the board he replied, "Same yet." And they took him at his word. At Old Turnford, in Worcestershire, there is a sign which represents a negro in a tub. Two women in white aprons and caps are endeavoring to scrub him white, the whole representing the Labor In Vain. Yet another, in the main street of Dudley, has for a sign the Round of Beef, while somewhere in the south of England is the Devil aud Bag o Nails. And with that I feel I must close my list. P. T. O.

MISS MARGARET TIERNEY A lare proportion of the operations performed in our hospitals are upon ivomi'ii and girls for some orjjauic trouble. Why bhould thia be the case ?
