Ab a result of an assault made upon her Wednesday night near the circus grounds Mabel Ross, a sixteen years old colored girl employed as a domestic in the family of H. M. Sutton, west of the city, is in a serious condition and it is feared that she may lose the sisht of one eye. The assault was a very bold one and notwithstanding the fact that it was committed in a large crowd, but few people noticed it until the assailant had robbed his victim and made good his escape. According to the statement made to Mrs. Sutton by the young woman she and a companion, Jessie Page of Eaton, were walking on North Nineteenth street just south of the bridge when the assault was made. It occurred about 8 o'clock.
She says she saw a man grab a j purse a young white girl was carry- j
Ing. The girl screamed and then the Ross girl turned to her companion and said, "Lets get away from here, I am scared." She states that the Page girl asked her if she had any money or valuables and she replied that she had a gold watch and chain and $1.13. Just as she said this somebody struck her a crushing blow over the head and she did not recover consciousness until she came to in a nearbv residence, where the Page girl was bathing her head. Prosecutor Jessup stated this morning that he had been informed of the assault by Clara Ross, a sister of the victim who is employed by Mr. Jessup as a domestic. He states that Clara Ross tells a different story of the affair, and said that she was with her sister when the assault took place. He is inclined to believe that Mable Ross received her injuries in some manner different than stated by the two sisters. The assault made on the Ross girl was not the only crooked work perpetrated at the show grounds. Several people had their pockets picked and there were several cases of purse snatching. But few complaints were made by victims to the police as they linew it would be almost impossible for the police to locate their assailants. There were probably more crooks following the Robinson circus than any show that has visited Richmond for some time.

Plenty More Like This in Richmond. Scores of Richmond people can tell you about Doan's Kidney Pills. Many a happy citizen makes a public statement of his experience. Here is a case of it. What better proof of merit can be had than such endorsement? William W. Fry of 830 North Twelfth St., Richmond, Ind., says: "For a long time I was uneasy on account of a severe kidney trouble. The secretions were of a bad odor and contained a sediment like brick dust. Many nights I had to get up out of bed five times to pass the secretions. My back aches intensely and there was a hard pain around the kidneys. Looking about last winter for a cure for my trouble I was advised to use Doan's Kidney Pills. I got a box and began taking them as directed. Being relieved I continued their use until the malady left me. I give Doan's Kidney Pills my earnest recommendation." For sale by all dealers.

With two big grips he alighted from the buekboard driven by the president's coachman and walked across the station at Oyster Bay to the 6:15 train. In the smoker he rammed a snub nos-,1 ipc full of tobacco, pushed baclv the front of his Panama hat. and settled down to steady comfort. "I'm going with father on the African hunt next year," he said to a reporter, "and will be away a year. The arrangements for the hunt, have not bfen made. Father has not made any contracts for writing about t.ie trip, although he has had manv offers. We

"Probably either the Smithsonian or

"Will any one arrange for connec

How the Aothor of "Valerie" Cap-
tared Parisians Lone Aco.
We had some notes a little while ago on the methods which some au
thors have adopted for the advertisement of their books. A correspondent sends us an example of this sort of
thing, which is the better worth quot
ing because we have never seen it
Quoted in this connection before. It is
taken from a life of Mme. de Krudner,
whose novel "Valerie" appeared short
ly after Mme. de Stael's "Delphine."
"You know quite well," the author wrote to a friend, "that neither talent nor genius nor the excellence of one's
Intentions is sufficient to insure a success. Everything demands some charlatanism." And the biographer proceeds to tell us how she translated her doctrine into action. During several days, he writes, she made the round of the fashionable shops incognito, asking sometimes for shawls, sometimes for hats, feathers, wreaths or ribbons, all "a la Valerie." When they saw this beautiful and elegant stranger step out of her carriage with an air of assurance and ask for
fancy articles which she invented on j the spur of the moment the shopkeep- j ers were seized with a polite desire '
to satisfy her by any means In their power. Moreover, the lady would soon pretend to recognize the article she had asked for. And if the unfortunate shopgirls, taken aback by such unusual demands, looked puzzled Mme. de Krudner would smile graciously and pity them for their ignorance of the new novel, thus turning thein all into eager readers of "Valerie." Then, laden with purchases, she would drive off to another shop, pretending to search for that which existed only in her imagination. Thanks to these maneuvers, she succeeded in exciting such ardent competition la honor of her heroine that for a week at least the shops sold everything "a la Valerie." Her own friends, the Innocent accomplices in her stratagem, also visited shops on her recommendation, thus carrying the fame of her book through the Faubourg Saint-Germain and the Chaussee d'Antin.

It was dark and the newly installed electric lights were not burning. The "Italian Kid," champion of Europe, had disposed of all his foreign foes and was just about to meet the "American Wonder" when the police broke through the crowd, clambered into the ringside and stopped the fight Over the railing, down the slendor supports or with prodigious leads and dives the ring was cleared instantly and the fighters and spectators hotfooted for the far distance. The luckless scrappers, who were cap
tured by the coppers were told to tell j
all their comrades in arms there must be no more fighting and to take the injunction to heart themselves. They made hasty promises and no arrests were made.
