The Real Richmond Spirit The real Richmond spirit displayed itself yesterday when a tidy sum amounting to nearly $6,000 was raised in a few hours for the purpose of financing a fall festival next October. The band of hustlers who made the canvass for funds gave their services cheerfully and enthusiastically and the majority of the business men they called upon were liberal in their contributions. A few men were found who refused to make any donations, but they compose such a small minority that there is no danger they will ever be able to side-track the city back into the rut where it remained for so many years. The men who have made the revival of the fall festival possible are those who do not view every public enterprise from a dollars and cents viewpoint, who are content with indirect financial returns and who realize the great benefit the city derives from any event which attracts large crowds within its gates. The wonderful growth of many western cities has been due primarily to the encouragement given public events. In fact municipal advertising has become a fine art in the west.
street this unfortunate, nervous monarch passes along. Stubbornly clinging to a form of government antiquated a century ago, he prefers to continue a target for the bombs of anarchists than to yield to the demand for a more popular form of government. What a contrast there was in the entry to Berlin of King George of England, monarch in name only of a free, self governing, people, and the entry to the same capital of the absolute ruler of an enslaved empire. George rode gaily to the kaiser's palace in an open motor car Without armed escort. Nicholas was hurried through a bristling forest of bayonets.
POLITICAL REMEDIES
Wanted More Musical Treats" There are quite a number of Richmond people who are today impressed with the fact that Richmond really has a remarkable musical organization the symphony orchestra. Of course this has been, known to a host of music lovers in this city for some time, but the fact did not dawn upon a number of people who take but little interest in anything except business and domestic affairs until , they attended the symphony concert last evening. Of course they had heard that Richmond had established a reputation as a musical center through its orchestra, but they were not prepared to find that this organization which had grown up in their midst without attracting more than passing notice from them was, shall we say, a musical masterpiece. , The perfection attained by the Richmond Symphony Orchestra, one of the city's best assets, is to the credit of modest, hard-working Will Earhart, to the faithful, ambitious young musicians who compose the organization, and to Prof. Lebo who has so ably carried on the work of conducting the orchestra since Prof. Earhart was called to a larger field of activity. Now that the orchestra has opened the eyes of the average citizen of Richmond and has won well deserved admiration, more than one concert a year will be wanted. It is to be hoped that a number of these musical treats will be arranged for next winter and spring. There is no reason to doubt that in the future such concerts will be well attended and the revenue the orchestra will derive from them will create a fund large enough to meet all of its expenses. The Ounce of Prevention Dr. King's report of the health of 1,400 pupils in five of the public schools of the city showing ninety-five per cent, defective in one respect or another, is of timely value to their parents. Defects in the health of the young can be remedied easier than can be cured the ailments of older people. Young boys and girls of today will be the men and women of tomorrow. Protect and encourage good health in the young generation and when it has reached its full development it will carry on the work of the world efficiently and courageously. Put off until the never arriving tomorrow the systematic upbuilding of the health of the young and you condemn future generations to continue bearing the heavy heritage of pain and suffering and consequent inefficiency and discouragement, that past generations have borne. Poor teeth, throat afflictions (diseased tonsils and adenoids), stunted muscular development, poor assimilation of food and kindred beginnings of future ill health in the young, should and will receive the serious attention of all parents who are anxious for their offspring to carry forward the life of work and enjoyment on a higher plane. A school system that numbers among its functions a medical examination of students by .which parents are systematically kept informed of the physical defects of their children is a boon to humanity. It marks further advance along the line of providing the ounce of prevention rather than paying for the pound of cure and running the risk of the latter being too late.
New York American. The wave of Industrial disorder and violence, whose crost seems now to be moving from southern Ohio and Vcst Virginia to northern New Jersey, should raise up
two very distinct resolutions In the minds of sensible
men who take time to think about such matters. Obviously, the first resolution should be to sustain and i.trengttaen the existing powers of law and order. Nobody with anything like an imaginative grasp of the misery that falls upon a lawless community can doubt that bad Jaws are better than none, and that it is better to endure grave legal abuse than to suspend the orderly tdTiinistration of justice. It should but perhaps does not go without saying that high-handed measures of repression taken by judges, public prosecutors, policemen or "prominent citizens" may be quite as subversive of law and order as anything that can be dene by rioters in the street. Indeed, It is fairly evident that the greatest possible damage to the taw is the damage that can be done by those who are most influential in the administration of It. In the face of threatened social disorder, therefore, men of Bense will give their first thought to uphold the law and to keep the administration of justice free from cver-strain and illegality. The second thought to take shape in the mins of reasonable men should ba the resolution to put in practice methods of political actions, more adequate than those we have, for the correction of social wrongs. Americans hate violence because Americans believe in free government. They understand that where government is free there Is no social wrong that cannot be righted by political means. It is time to frankly face the fact that the rule of privilege is a rule of greed and fraud. It lays its heaviest burden of injustice upon the backs of those who are least able to endure it. The way to avoid violent reaction against an unendurable burden is to provide swift and sure political methods for the lifting of the load. It is time for even dull people to understand that the flftht for democratic political methods for direct primaries, for the initiative, the referendum and the recall is a fight for the repression of social disorder and the restoration of the original force of law.

THE CITY OF SLEEP
Nice to Be a Czar It must be a real pleasure for the Czar of all the Russias to go a visiting. What glimpses he obtains of the towns and cities he passes through in regal state are obtained through occasional breaks in the deep ranks of the troops, police and secret service men who line both sides of every
Over the edge of the purple down, Where the single lamplight gleams, Know ye the road to the Merciful Town That is hard by the Sea of Dreams Where the poor may law their wrongs away, And the sick may forget to weep? But we pity us; Oh, pity us! We must go back with Policeman Day Back from the City of Sleep! Weary then turn from the scroll and crown Fetter and prayer and plow They that go up to the Merciful Town, For her grates are closing now. It is their right in the Baths of Night Body and soul to steep, But we pity us! ah, pity us! We wakeful; oh, pity us! We must go back with Policeman Day Eack from the City of Sleep. Over the edge of the purple down. Ere the tender dreams begin. Look we may look at the Merciful Town, But we may not enter In. Outcasts all, from her guarded wall, Back to our watch we creep; We pity us; ah, pity us: We wakeful; oh, pity us! We that go back with Policeman Day Back from the City of Sleep! Rudyard Kipling.

ed unopened the boy was unable to cell but he supposed that his father learned that fishing for large fish with little worms was not quite the proper stunt. It is a shame to force ones children to spend all their lesiure time digging up the back yard in search of worms and then not use them. Nothing is known about the fish caught.
Tonight is regular meeting night of the directors of the post. The executive committee appointed by president Browne to take charge of the 1914 T. P. A. convention has been announced. The committee is made up of the following members: John Coates, Wm. Quigg, P. J. Freeman, E. E. Lebo, Cliff Caldwell, Marion Shreeve, Demas Coe, Walter Bates, H. Hill, L. E. Browne and T. C. Harrington. At a meeting of the committee T. C. Harrington was elected chairman and W. H. Quigg secretary. The committee is confident that Richmond will more than surpass the expectations of the Indiana T. P. A's and that the convention of 1914 will be a great success from every standpoint. A. D. Gorrell, the new president of the Indiana division of the T. P. A. was in the city during the week and was greeted by several of the boys of Post C.
One member of the post has been denied his home during the past three weeks, being quarantined on account of scarlet fever in his family. Bro. LawBon, the glove man, has been spending more than his usual time at the club rooms lately due to the fact that he is not allowed home. The sick ones are all improving nicely.
Fred Haisley has completed his spring trip for the A. H. Bartel Co. and will now take his place in the office. Fred carries the factory line exclusively.
The Indiana delegates to the national convention at Richmond, Va., will travel in a special train provided by the C. and O. railroad. The train will be made up at Cincinnati and will be a solid Pullman train of the best and latest type. A special Pullman car will pick up the delegates from Marion, Muncie and Richmond and will go through this city Saturday, June 7, via the C. and O. road. One of the largest delegations from Indiana will be in attendance at the national convention. The delegates representing Post C ars W. H. Quigg, E. E. Lebo, L. E. Turner and T. C. Harrington.
Sam Ford of Indianapolis visited the club rooms this week and entertained the boys with an unusual line of good stories. Sam has a long line of stories and can tell them in a way that is amusing. The rooms were in an uproar during his presence.
John Heggar has reported that he has been confidentially informed that Quigg is going to wear his much talked of vest to the national convention.
Jim Lewis, "Shorty" Shreeve, "Sorrel" Lebo and Willie Quigg, known as the "Four Famous Fishmen of Post C," returned from their first fishing trip of the year last Sunday morning while the balance of the members of the post were making arrangements to attend church. Very little information has leaked out concerning the trip. It ap
pears that the four are sworn to se
crecy and the public is not to know much of the queer doings of these Famous fishermen. It was learned by bribing one of Lebo'a boys that "Sorrel Top" carried a nice prune box full of fish worms all the way up to James Lake and back with him without ever opening the box. Why the box remain-

Box 615, Petersburg, 111., writes: "I have been troubled with internal catarrh since my girlhood, and was sick in bed for three months. I had pains all through me. When I was able, to get up I was so weak and thin that I could hardly walk. What I ate disagreed with me. I had stomach and liver trouble, and my feet and limbs were swollen so I could scarcely drag around. "I took Peruna and It has done wonders for me. My cure was a surprise to my friends, for they never expected to see me well again. I just took two bottles of Peruna after doctoring for five months and growing worse all the time." Persons who object to liquid medicines can now obtain Perana Tablets. (idTtrUMBWU
