To the Friends of Glen Miller Park: The undersigned "Lookout Committee" appointed by the Mass Meeting of Citizens held August 11th, to "Protest Against the Spoliation of Our Park, beg leave to report that we are giving the matter every attention in our power. We are pleased to say that we have the unanimous support of the Common Council, the known preference of the Traction Co., for some other route, and the continued sympathy and co-operation of the majority of Richmond citizens. As one means to the end, we have encouraged Mr. George W. Hill In bringing Injunction Proceedings in the Wayne County Circuit Court to restrain the T. H., I. & E., Interurban R. R. Co. from laying their tracks through the Park. The arguments in this suit will be heard Monday morning, September 14th. Tour Committee is without funds. ' We most respectfully ask from all citizens'' a liberal contribution, since we believe we would be expected to assume the expense of this suit or Its appeal. Will you not then soon send your check or cash to our treasurer, Mr. C. B. Hunt, 603 Main street. We know that you will feel assured of a careful expenditure of the. same, and should any surplus remain it will be held for the protection of the Park against any further encroachments. Richmond.

Discriminating Horse Actually Refused Meal of $1,300 In Bills.

HAD A POOR APPETITE.

Waterbury, Conn., Sept. 12. Robert McCormack, a coal dealer, sold a house Friday for J 1,300, all in bills. He decided the money would be safer in the barn than in the house, so put the roll of bills In a sack of feed. In the morning he fed his horse out of the same sack. At breakfast McCormack was tell

ing his faimly about selling the property when Mrs. McCormack suddenly asked him: "What did you do with the money?" That started him for the barn at a quick step, where he found he had given the $1,300 roll to a horse for breakfast and that intelligent animal had tried to eat it, but finding it lacking in flavor had nosed it along the manger while cleaning up his food. The money was intact

(By Catherine Allman.) "I have a missive here; I hesitate to call it a billet-doux," confided a business man to me, "that sounds a bit compromising. Would you advise me to show it to my wife when she returns home, or would you follow the suggestion of the writer?" The epistle, written on paper tinted a delicate pink and ruled with lines

of lavender hue, ran as follows:

hear all rite but my cozzen wa sick, she has electrick fits an i had to hire a karridge which was two dollers. My mother died last weak. Please send me too dollers to pay my fare back, my little boy has skarlet fever and 1 want to haste back to cook for you all again. Respectfully yours, Mary Jones. P. S. Burn this letter."

never omit the advertisements. As one man puts It: "God bless the women; they have no business . instincts." The silly season seems to have come to tarry with many of the publications gotten up for the feminine world. Because one woman's publication established a "heart to heart" column, where feminine mourners could pour

out their griefs and tales of woe, all

CARPENTER FALLS HEIR JO MILLIONS German Craftsman Hears of Big Fortune in Russia.

Berlin, Sept 12 Frederich Schmidt a carpenter of Splndelhof, Upper Palatinate, has been notified through the Bavarian Legation at St Petersburg that he is heir to $7,500,000 In cash and to several estates in Russia, the property of a certain German soldier of fortune named Schmidt The latter was in the Russian service during the Crimean war and was promoted to be general. He married a rich countess. His heir won the Iron Cross In the Franco-Prussian war.

In these days of race suicide a large family is looked upon with awe, not to say dread, and matters don't seem to be growing any better in that respect, despite the frenzied articles written by sociologists and the re

bukes handed out by serious minded !

men who love to remind the weaker and inferior sex of its duty to humanity. This reminds me of a tale told me by a doctor not long ago. He attended a case where triplets were ushered into the world. When the father learned of the generosity of Providence he broke into no acclamations of joy. On the contrary, his countenance assumed a somber hue. Later, when he was taken in to survey his three squirming offsprings, he poked a finger at the boy in the middle, and turning to the doctor said: "Well, doctor, they look pretty much

alike to me; but I guess we'll keep this one."

Editors of magazines, especially

of magazines for women,' receive vol

uminous letters from their subscribers

in criticism or commendation of the contents of their periodicals. Almost every one knows that the worth of a magazine , from a base monetary standpoint, is determined by the quantity and quality of .its advertising matter. Note the unconscious humor, then contained in a letter to the editorial heads of a certain woman's magazine, advising them not to take out the ads lest they lose the esteem of their country subscribers. The editors print the letter and hasten to assure their fair

correspondent that they will never,

might be put to better but more expensive vso are devoted to letters from

misunderstood wives, disgruntled spinsters, and unhappy mothers. It flatters the vanity of these poor souls to see their communications In print, but what of the subscriber who has troubles enough of her jwb and sufficient pride and sense of humor to keep them to herself. It may be a fact, heartrending, but true, that the husbands, children and sweethearts of these writers of weepful letters are not all they should be, but can It be true that such mawkish stuff appeals to the

general magazine purchaser? As one woman expressed herself with vehement indignation: "Why should I pay 15 cents (it used to be 10) to hear of a whole mess of family jars, when I could go home this very minute and start one up for nothing?" Still another source of irritation to the average feminine reader in search of a magazine that appeals to her interests lies in the methods of saving or making money set forth in such glowing accounts in so many periodicals. Some thrifty party has said

there are a thousand ways to spend money, but just one way to save it Most women, especially those who rear families, have ample opportunity to test that axiom and learn its soundness. Any woman who would attempt to follow some of the ridiculous magazine plans for making and saving money ought to have, a committee of the person appointed to look after financial affairs. "Yes, my dear, I'm going to move from my present apartment as soon as my lease is up," I heard a little blonde inform her portly friend- "One never knows," she went on, "what class of people one is going to know when one rents an apartment No, one never knows. I thought Mrs. Brown such a charming woman when we first moved in. We were so friendly. I never thought anything of borrowing a pound of butter or a loci of bread

I'm that way, you know. So impulsive when I take a fancy to people oh, did you pay the fare; I was just going to, thank you What was I saying? Mrs. Brown? Oh, yes. We Just got along beautifully until Iz&t month when I gave that little luncheon, 70U remember. Perfectly dear, wasn't it? Oh, you weren't there? Well everyone said it was. Tou know how it Is when you give luncheons. You don't always have all the different silver forks and spoons necessary. Mrs. Brown offered to lend me her salad forks and bullion spoons when I told her I was going to entertain. Offered them, mind you. All I said about it was that mino had been stolen, and I

didn't see how I could entertain- without them caterer's sliver is so common. ,

"Well, she sent them over three

days before the luncheon. I hadn't In

vlted her. Do you think it looked

queer? She really would have made too

many, and besides, well, Mrs. Brown

is a sweet woman, but not exactly th

sort, you know. She didn't seem a bit

offended at not having received an in

vitation and offered to help mo. , Of

course that was only to find ont what

I was going to have to eat "My guests came, we were seated at the table, and everything was happening deliciously, when the maid camo in and whispered loud enough for the people In the next flat to hear that "Mrs. Brown wanted them silver spoons and forks right away. "Imagine, my dear, my predicament What did I do? What could I do? I didn't have her old forks or spoons. Yes, I know I borrowed them, but 70U see, I had my own silver all the time and I had pawned Mrs. Brown's things to pay for some things I had at the luncheon. Sho raised a perfecctly dreadful scene about it too. One never knows what sort of people. As I said, I am too Bohemian in my nature. Oh, you get off here? Goodby dearie come and see me."
