A seasoned Wall street campaigner condenses a life of practical observation In the remark: "Stock market tips are, as a rule, founded on nothing better than guesswork or pure invention. Although usually without value, openly peddled out to the public and not possible to trace to any reliable source, they come clothed in such a garb of mystery and apparent importance that there are always a lot of ill informed persons who will accept them and act on them as on gospel truth. "Often these so called 'tips' are but the whispered suggestions of some manipulator who was confident that his mysterious, semiconfldential hint would travel and be made the basis of large buying of some stock be was especially anxious should be largely sold. "It is told of one great speculative magnate of the past generation that when he was approached by the pastor of a rich and fashionable Fifth avenue church in search of means by which he could become suddenly rich he put his Hps close to the clerical ear and whispered: 'Buy Pacific Mail. It's a sure thing. If you lose on it I'll make good your losses.' "The pastor departed gleefully. Some two weeks later he called at the office of the manipulator and deplored the great financial losses be had incurred in: following the confidential tip. 'How much were theyT asked Mr. and on being told he drew his personal check for the amount. "The minister took it and after expressing bis thanks hesitated a moment and then said: 'But how about my parishioners? You placed no ban of secrecy on me, and their losses have been enormous. "The financier smiled grimly as be remarked. 'You see. doctor, those were tbe fellows I was after. "This story may be true or may not. but It points a moral. If yon get a "tip on Wall street bury it In the back yard and forget It" Cleveland Leader.

MAKES ANOTHER SUICIDE BLUFF Charles Wolfe Found With Carbolic Acid Burns On His Mouth. MUST LEAVE THE CITY. a PATIENCE OF AUTHORITIES EXHAUSTEDTHREATENS TO KILL HIMSELF WHEN PLACED IN JAIL. Charles Wolfe, professional suicide bluff, was fired from the city this morning. He was given until 11 o'clock to clear out under penalty of being sent to jail for loitering. Wolfe is about the biggest nuisance of his kind the city has had to deal with for some time. The man's hobby is premediated attempts at self destruction, but he always has been careful not to meet with success in his effort. Upon leaving the city, Wolfe said he would go to Connersville. Yesterday afternoon he was found lying on the sidewalk on Fort Wayne avenue a short distance north of Main street Officer Hebble observed the carbolic acid burns about the man's mouth and alcohol was procured from Quigley's drug store. Wolfe drank it to counteract the effect of the poison. A physician was summoned and upon investigation, it was found the acid used had been diluted and practically none of it had been swallowed. Wolfe's mouth was burned slightly but his throat was uninjured. Wolfe was removed to the hospital. It was evident soon that he was out of danger and he was told he would be removed to the city jail. He made violent protest screaming and carrying on like a wild man. The authorities were not deterred, however, and carted the champion bluffer to the city jail. Wolfe threatened to commit suicide and made a bluff1 about using his shirt for the purpose. The man's suspenders were taken from him and all other articles of wearing apparel that he might convert into a rope. He remained all night at the jail and his demeanor became very much subdued. The man claimed to have escaped from jail at Dayton, where he has been locked up for safe keeping. He fol lowed the same tactics there he did here. Wolfe's bluff of yesterday was his fourth in this city. In each in stance he has been "rescued" and a physician spared him, all danger and inconvenience except a slight illness. He followed the same game at Greensburg and Connersville before coming to Richmond. . Coincidence. "Somehow I'm awfully stupid tonight," remarked young Borum languidly the other evening. "Indeed you are." retorted Miss Cutting, somewhat Impulsively. "Do you really mean that?" asked tbe young man In surprise. "I merely Indorsed your remarks. Didn't yon Just now assert that you were stupid?" she queried. "Yes," he responded, "but I only said so without thinking." "And up to the time you spoke of it. she replied. "I only thought so without xtnzJL" Paaxaaa'a. WmUk.

TAFT DECISIONS BASIS FOR UNIONS Candidate for President Tells Of His Labor Record In Ohio. TARIFF IS A PROTECTION. SPEAKS OF CONDITIONS OF LABORER WHEN THERE WAS NO PROTECTIVE TARIFF PAYS RESPECTS TO DEBS. East Liverpool, O., Oct. 14. In the midst of the steel and iron district of Cleveland, William H. Taft commanded the closest attention of an immense audience in what Is proverbially re garded as the hardest place In the state of Ohio for a political speaker to obtain a respectful hearing. The details of conditions were not known to the candidate but a half hour before he reached the city. The immense tent in which the meeting was held was reached by a four-mile automobile ride through Cleveland and the audience patiently waited the half-hour delay caused by the lateness of the candidate's train. When Mr. Taft appeared ho was warmly welcomed. He began at once to talk with that earnestness which caused implicit attention. He showed from his viewpoint why it was that the American workman needs the protection of the tariff, and what has been the result when he had not had that protection. Mr. Taft followed this with a detailed account of his own personal experience with the labor world. He explained that the decisions he had rendered while on the bench, and for which he was now condemned by Bryan and Gompers, were in reality the legal basis of labor organizations of the present day and upon what basis they had grown and prospered until today they were stronger than ever. Effective Meeting. This meeting Mr. Taft considers the most effective he has had on his present trip because of the character of the audience, its known Democratic and Socialistic tendencies and the success he had In riveting attention. Respects to Debs. At Lorain a cheer for Debs when the candidate mentioned his name in con nection with the union cases he had handled while on the bench inspired Mr. Taft to pay his compliments to Debs as a presidential candidate. "Mr. Debs is a Socialist," he said when the applause died out. "Mr. Debs is logical. He is opposed to the institutions of this country as the7 have been established by the constitution. He has a right to be If he chooses, provided he accomplishes hi3 methods by legal and nonviolent ways. Therefore, I am not going to criticise Llr. Debs." In Cleveland after Mr. Taft had reviewed his labor record at length, with an illustration of what he bad to do with helping to build up labor organizations in the Philippines and his administration in connection with the Panama canal, where he bad much to do with, the unions, he smiling recalled

ELECTRIC LIGHT 0UESTI0HC0NS1DERED Fire Hazard at County Farm Discussed. The cost of lighting the county poor farm buildings with .electricity and the additional Insurance hazard were considered by the grand jury today. Charles Newlin, deputy auditor, was called before the jury and produced the Insurance policies to show what additions have been made to. the rates as the result of the use of electricity. It Is not believed probable the grand Jury will recommend the discontinuance of electric lighting as the additional hazard amounts only to one per cent as shown by the rates. It had been proposed by the county commissioners that the installation of an acetyline gas plant might be preferable. Because of the danger from such a plant, it is expected there would be strong objection and Its cost of operation would be greater than what is spent for electricity. The latter amount Is less than $5 monthly. A SURPRISING WEDDING. It Gav a Shock to tha Lady Who Wat So Anxious to Sea It. An elderly American authoress asked me to conduct her to a place where she could see a workman's wedding, as she required It for a new novel, writes the Paris correspondent of the London Gentlewoman. To oblige tbe lady I took her to tbe Lac Salnt-Far-genu, an establishment at the top of the steep Rue de Belleville. It was still early when we reached tbe place, and no brides or bridegrooms were visible as yet- At last two char-a-bancs drove up to tbe door, and a noisy company alighted, all smoking cigarettes. Including the bride, which shocked my friend exceedingly. The company then sat down to luncheon, and we watched them from a distance, while a pbWographer took up bis position near us. The meal did not last very long and ended in the bride performing a jig on the table, while the guests danced around ber. They then started games, hide and seek. etc.. and while the bridegroom had his back turned the bride threw her arms round tbe neck of a red haired youth This led to a fight between the two. The melee became general, the bride pulling off ber wreath and throwing It at her father-in-law's bead. My friend looked on in breathless excitement, while the guests Jumped over the tables and chairs, but when the bride turned a somersault, alighting on the bridegroom's sboulders,tbe good lady's Indignation rose to a high pitch, and it was only then that I told her what I and tbe reader no doubt, too guessed long before, that they were a party of acrobats rehearsing a scene for a cinematograph company. fCf.?irl Por Indigestion. m'-JVsWA Relieves sour stomach, palpitation of tbe heart.

CITY GROWS WITH BIG WATER MAINS Where Extensions Are Made, Property Is Erected, It Is Shown B. of W.

ELEVENTH STREET CASE UP SUPERINTENDENT . OF WATER COMPANY ADVISES CITY OFFICIALS TO ACT FAVORABLY, POINTING: OUT RESULTS. Superintendent Howard Dill of the Richmond City Water Works company appeared before the board of public works this morning In connection with the proposed extension of the water works main on South Eleventh street. Mr. Dill advised the board to extend the water mains and stated that where this had been done In the past, residences soon were erected as the result. It was a new proposition the super intndent placed before the board and one that will receive consideration. Under the agreement between the city and waterworks company, the mains are extended 500 feet or more at a time and the city thereupon installs a hydrant at each interval of 500 feet. Residents of South Eleventh street, south of E street, have petitioned the board for an extension of the mains. The board does not known bow for to run the mains and if any extension would be advisable, because of tbe scarcity of bouses. Mr. Dill claimed the bouses follow the water mains. He advised t!ie mains be extended and houses will follow. He said the same has been demonstrated as the truth by past experience. He pointed to an example In West Richmond. There was a large number of vacant lots and tbe owner could not sell them. There was no water main nor fire protection. The owner became instrumental In securing the extension of the main and now sixty-seven lots have been sold In that one section and on almost every lot- a house has been built. It was argued in favor of the extension of the mains that an Inducement is offered to builders, which pays the city. In the first place the city pays for the extension but when the houses are built on the vacant lots the additional remuneration In the way of taxes more than offsets the expense to which the city is plac4 originally. Naeoad In ry Home. When be reached borne be opened tbe package be was carrying and displayed a number of placards, some oJ which read "For Show and othen "For Use." "There!" be exclaimed triumphantly. "I flatter myself I have solved tb problem." "Solved tbe problem?" she repeated. "What problem? What In tbe world d yon Intend to do with those cards?
