Pcaceful Times.
The police records of the city and the
work of tihe detectlve bureau indicate
tliat the decrcase ln crime has been very
decided in the last month.
The detectives say that the only cause
they can attrihute to the encouraglng
condition of matters along this line is
that there is an abundance of work for
erstwhile idle hands to do.
The churches have been doing much
missionary work recently, and this ls
regarded as a good thing by the Pol.ce
Department

The revival at Union Station church,

Mr. C. O. Snville WIII Run for,llo
Election.
To the Pubiic:
I respectfully announce that I am a
candidate for re-election as Clerk of the
Chancery Court of the City of Richmond.
I was appointed to that position by tlie
Judge of the Court two and a half years
ago, to fill the vacancy caused by the
resignation of the former clerk. '
That I have given satlsfaction to those
most interested in the administration of
the ofilce ls, I think, best attested by the
fact that 1 have the written endorsement
and the cordial support of more than
ninety per cent. of tlie lawyers, and of
even a larger proportion of the real es?
tate agents of the city. It seems to me
that I cannot offer higher evidence of
m.v competency and efiH-lency as clerk.
I have but one ambition in connection
with the ofllce?to render the most faith
ful and eflicient service to the pubiic
Asking your confidenoe and support,' I
am, Yours most respectfully,

not turn over in bed alone. After using

GREAT DISPENSER
WELCOMEDMCK
What Happened While He Was Away
One Day.
AKES A NEW RULING.
Xo Spit on a Man' is Equivalent to a
Blow?The Oregon Hill Terrors Get
Up a Straiijrc Method of Rnis
iiiga JIow?Many Pines.
The Great Dispenser was as full of lifo
yesterday as a hoisting engine and as ir
resistable as a jack screw. He was greet
ed by dozens of people as if.he had taken
an ocean voyage, and given as''warn_ a
welcomo as if he had brought presents
back for al' his friends.
"When the cat's away, the mice will
Play."
Tho Great Dispenser was off the bench
only one day and yet the town was full
of lights. Men. boys and women who had
been good as long as the Great Dispenser
had his hand at tho throttle, though the
steam was popping off the safety valve,
went wild as soon as he laid off for a
day, jumped the track, and smashed
things right and left, before he got his
overalls-hung up ln the dressing-box.
BUT THE CAT CAME BACK.
John Walters and Henry Chittum were
charged on eeparate .warrants with as?
sault, striking and beating Lloyd Waldrop.
The Great Dispenser ls on the curves
of the Oregon Hill Terrors, and rested
the case early in the game as he knows
when he's got enough, but the boys had
a lawyer and he kept putting witnesses
on the stand until tlie lncrlminating facts
grew like a bail of snow, two 'inore
boys were swept into the vortex of the
law, and the evidence was so plain that
nothing stood between the boys and a
heavy fine except the pleading that im?
mediately takes ? place behind the bench
as soon as a line is imposed in front of
the bar.
Lloyd Waldrop and a friend dressed in
their Sunday best, came out of Hollywood
after a walk, and Henry Chittum and
Elmo Starke and Dan Butler were stand?
ing on the corner and a strange thins
happened.
A STNGULAiR GAME.
Henry Chittum held his hand up In
front of Lloyd Waldrop's breast and in?
vited Elmo Starke to spit on It. Elmo
accepted the invitation and expectorated
with vigor in the direction of Henry's
hand, and in a timely manner, Henry
jerked his hand away and Lloyd caught
tlie spittle on his clothes.
He wiped lt away' without resentment
the lirst time, but when. the same perform
ance was enacted several times Lloyd
struck Elmo Starke and then the three
partners piled on Lloyd.
This encounter ended without serious
results, but the Great Dispenser, by way of
parenthesis, remarked that spitting on a
man was equivalent to a blow and mar
velled lhat Waldrop hadn*t let fly at the
first offense. -
Well, Waldrop went on home and he and
Elmo Starke later made friends, but while
going to church at nigiit Henry Chittum
picked a fuss with him at the corner of
Cherry and Albemarle Streets and bang
ed him in the eye, and here's where John
Walters got ln the game.
When Chittum hit Waldrop, Walters
hit him too from a point of the compas3
out of Waldrop's line of vlsion, and in
consoquence. Waldrop had a bump on his
forehead and a wail-pocket under h!s left
BBNCH WAKRAGSfTS.
The Great Dispenser issued bench war
rants for Elmo Starke and Dan Butier
and fined Henry Chittum and Jno. Walters
$10 each.
He announced his Intention of breaking
up the disorder in the vicinity of this cor?
ner and instructed the police to report any
gathering of "the gang" there.
Bobert Lawrence came up to nnswer
a warrant that had been out for him.
since last December. He made nn unpro
voked assault on R. M. King Chri?tmas
Eve, and then moved to "Xewport News
.for a spell.
He filled up with fire water, as ls the
habit.of people of 'Richmond, with more
money and influence than Robert Law?
rence at that season of the year.
The liquor he drank was of the fighting
kind and when he met Mr. King he let
into him like a thousand of brick nnd
Mr. King said Lawrence hit him in the
face twenty-four times.
The Great Dispenser had no doubt of
the testimony. but was a little puzz'.ed to
know how Mr. King so clcverly ccunted
the licks under the cireumstances. Mrs.
King came to Mr. King's assistance and
Lawrence hlt her over the heatl with n
fcrlck and then he thought it was time
for dlsappearing nnd went to "Newport
News.
* The Great Dispenser fined' him 520,
and as the man had no lawyer and no
members of the police force as near
neighbors. the Great Dispenser was not
wheedled to reduce the fine, and Law?
rence went to jail ln default.
. NOW BE GOOD.
Morris Baptist and Grant Thomas, col?
ored, were fighting in Broad Street when
arrested. They claimed to be only play
Ing. '"Don't you thlnk it wrong for grown
negroes to play ln Broad Street," querled
the Great Dispenser?
Morris and G-rant had to admit the
proposition. "Then I fine you $;y>0 each
for doing wrong," added the Great Dis
jienser, and Morris and Grant waltz.d
uround to the Sergeant's desk, looking
mean and cheap.
. Ella Keys was charged with assault
lng nnd beatlng Bettie Thornton, and nf
ter trying to make out a case of forgery
against Bettie, went- to the pen in default
Of $2.50 fine.
Andrew Wooldridge and Andrew Bates,

to six months In jail "flat."
Cornelius Kobinsan and Peter Depr.i
tor failed to answer to the charge of h_
Ing drunk tin .the street ar.d attachments
?were--issued for them.
'Albert Pato and Edwin Hall, charged
with being vagrants, claimed to be a
draughtsman nnd a palnter and-decoratDr
respectively and plead so well that they
were allowed to seek some other place ot

? Mathias Kelly, for doing plumblng
