HENRICO BOARD
IS MUCH AMAZED
Say They Have Always Pald
Bills from Richmond's
Flre Department.
Tho supervisors of Henrlco county aro
nll n.mn.od thnt tho Board of Firo Com
mlsKlonoi-H of Richmond should go to nny
cnnsltl.riible lengths to presont them with
a blll for servlces renderod, They- are
curlous to know why thero Is bolng so
much snld about tho mattor, in view of
tho fuct that they havo been p:iylng such
bllls ever sinco thoy can romombor.
Tho supervisors met yesterday at tho
courthouso ln regular sossion, but hnd
not yot recelvod tho communlcatlon from
tho Board. Honeo tho mattor was not
oven montloned nt the meeting.
Several monibers, soon nl'torwards, snld
they woro nt a loss to uudcirstnnd what
It all mennt, For years back they hava
boen paylng bllls for damages sustalned
by tho flro dopnrtment during servlcvs

ns broken hose nnd so on. Not once
have thoy refuaod to meet auch bllls pro
sontocl to thom. Thoy have no looa now
of clocllnlrig to do so.
It Is suggested ln the lettor from Uio
Board that tho supervisors ostabllsli
eheniicnl statlons nnd so on in tho county,
and tako such other stop. us may lu
necessary to protoct tholr own constitu
ency',lii enso of flros, Whon asked If tho

THE BUDGET
COMMENDED
Is Pleaslng 4o All Except ln
Ono Single Respect.
BUT LITTLE FOR CHARITY
Under tho Constructlon of Ihe New
Law Many Worthy Instltutlons ?
Woro Cut Off From
Benefits.
Probably never before. cortainly not
wlthln the memory of any ono now con
nectod with the clty government, has un
anual budget been recelved wlth more
genulne and unlversal ploasuro than tho
dooiimont whlch was passed Monday nlgln?
by th? Common Councll wlthout .so muoh
as havlng beon read. Tho actlon of tha
losaor body of tho munlclpal government
Ih takon as a compllment to tho lntegrlty
of tho Finance Committee, headed by Mr.
Jamos R. Gordon.
Thlnklntr that the budget. whlch hls
commltteo had slriven on with such cares
would be rocelnrod Monday nlght as for?
mer documonts of a liko nature, Mr. Gor?
don. although a member of tho Board of
Aldermen, was on hand to offer anv ox
planations about thls or that item which
mlght. not be quite. clear. He was wait-.
ing pationtly ln the smoking-room of the
chambor ongaged ln conv&rsatlon wlth
ono or two other gentlemen. Not one
of them hnd the remotost idea that.the
budget had beon called up, when sudden
ly In walkod Mr. ?Heslcp wlth the Infor?
mation that thu paper hnd beon passed
wlthout a dlssentlng voto, praclically.
WAS A COMPLIIME5NT.
To say that Mr. Gordon was pleased
and oqually surprlscd, is putting It mild
ly. Ho had expected a debate of at least
three hours, and reasonably thought that
several amendments would be made In
the document. It certalnly was'a com?
pllment to tho Finance Committee.
Inqulry yestorday among Councllmen?
members of different commlttees?reveal
ed that almost to a man they aro ploased
wlth tho recommondatlons of the Finance
Committee. They soem to reallzo that
every effort was exhausted to gbve each
department Just aa much money as possl?
ble, and have no klck to make agalnst
tho report. Mr. Marx Gunst, chnlrman
of the Rellef of the Poor Commltteo, anff
also a member of tho Flnmcc Cotamlt
teo, is sllghtiy upset over the fact that
ln tho budget tho estlmate of exponses
at the Almshouse Is cut down $1,000, but
otherwise he jolns hls follow members
In aipplaudlng the budget.
MUSIC IN THE PARKS.
Thero has been somo" little talk ovor
tho Itom approprlatlng *2,S00 for music
ln the parks, whlle the budget lgnorcg
the charltablo instltutlons of the clty.
Mr. Shea doesn't thlnk thls qulto rlght,
but when he advanced hls objectlons,
he eVide'ntly was not awaro that undor
the rullng of the Clty Attornoy, lt would
havo been unlawful to glvo any money
to nny charltable lnstltutlon. other than
those in which the clty is directlj' inter?
ested.
It wlll bo remembered that "whon the
new Constltutlon was drawn there wns
inserted n clnusc allowlnp no_city or pub?
llc corpomtlon In Vlrglnla to appropriate
any part of tholr funds to the malntaln
ance of charltablo Instltutlons. When ?
petltlon for a certain sum fnr such pur
poses camo up In the Councll. the mat?
ter was held up on that point. pendlng
an oplnlon from the City Attorney.
Mr. Pollard carefuly dnvestlgated tho
law, after whlch he reported that It would
bo illegal to mako any appropriatlons to
charltable Instltutlons. lt was duo en?
tirely to thls that the Finance Commit?
tee omltted In tho budgot small appro?
priatlons to the different instltutlons.
WILL BE OOMPLAINT3. -
So far no complalnt has beon, heard,
but thoy are sure to materlallze when
the fact fiilly develops upon the effecteil
charltablo Instltutlons, and an offort may
be made to have the law amended, so as
to mako It posslblo to glvo ovor small
sums of monoy to such a cause in the
futurc.
As shown In tho copy Of tlie budget ro
producod In The Times-Dispatch yester?
day mornlng, the sum of $70,000 ls appro
prlatod for the erectlon of a '?water
towor." Whlle the language Is technl
cally correct, tho words are mlsleadlng
to a dogree, nnd many havo boen led to
believe that the clty contemplated the
purchase of a tower, ono of those porta
blo affalrs, such as aro In uso In other
towns ln the country.
As a matter of fact, thoro wlll
bo no water tower In Richmond,
In nccord wlth the strlct meaning
of tho term. On tho other hand, thore
wll be a stand ptpo, and lt wlll be looatod
In the Lee Distrlct, and It Is for the con?
structlon of such an affair thnt the large
sum of money has been prnvlded by tho
ilnanclers.
It wlll be remembored that severnl
months ngo tho Councll declded to have
clear wator and to also Increase tho pres

Tho Itom in the budgot slmply makes

THE OZONE
GETS USED UP
The Advocate Dlscourscs on
a Strange Fact.
THE BODIES UNHEALTHY
Church Paper Says There la Somehow
a Leakage of Plety When Good
Men aro Gathered In
Dunches.
Tho Chrlstlan Advocate of thls week
contalns a brlelt and rathor saroastlc
cdltorlal on tho romarkablo fact that
"thero ls somehow a leakago of ploty
whon good mon aro gathered ln bunch
es." lt suggosts thaj tho cause and
curo of thls pocullar stato of thlngs
mlght be dlscussod at tho Monday meot?
lng of the mlnlstors, If such assembly
Itself ' Could escape tho ''inductlon"
'nover absent from a church congress."
Says tho Advocate:
Z-lon's Herald ls the organ of New
England Mothodlsm. It haa thls para
graph:
"A very able blshop onco sald to me:
'I nover get away from a general con?
ferenco wlthout feollng that I should
llke to go off to a oountry revlval meot?
lng and reoover my splrltual tone.' "
It seems the atmosphere of a Sanhedrin
hurts health. Tho ?_one gets used up.
The alr loses1 Its oxygen and galns car
bonlc acld gas, whlch lnoculates the
blood wlth a vlewless venom. A hun?
dred men, slttlng upon a subject sel
dom hatches a hoalthy offsprlng, rather
thoy addle a sound egg. A senate
grades down below the averago mem?
ber. The fool somehow drags men abovo
hlm to hls level.
A synod appears lnferlor ln goodness
and wlsdom ,to the Indlvldual Chrlstlan
composlng It. The frlotlon of thelr mlnds
emlts earthly odors. Thoro ls at tlmes
a bad tasto left ln the mouth at ad
journment. At the famous and hlstprlo
church conferenco at. Nlceal. composed
of men malmed ln eye, llmb and ten
don, hardly one wlthout mutllatlon ln
porsecutlons for ChrLst's aake, thore was
wlld- outburst and uproar among even
thoso heroos bf the Falth, when sharp
dlfforences moved thelr passlons. They
lost polarlty and slapped faces. of op
poslng brothren. '
Bvon Jesus loft hls "cablnot" and spent
hours . alone ln . prayer . to rid Hlm of
tho "dust of the earth" cllnglng lo
Hlm from contact wlth Hls dlsclples,
who mentally and splrltunlly substracted
from Hls highest condltion. We are
urged to Isolato ourselves In "our clos
ets" to shske off tho floating gorms, and
to rcchargo heart and braln from a
puro and dlvlno dynamo.
There ls somohow a leakage of plety
when good men are gathered ln
bunches. Thls "energy" whlch ought
to shine llke a clty slttlng on a hlll, by
a curlous hablt may run underground
and blte lnto qulet and useful oonductors
of water for tho thlrsty and of an lllu
ralnatlng vopor. The annals of the raco
report plague gonorated In the sesslons
of tho "Propaganda". and dosolatlng
home6, provlnces, the very altars of God
and Hls devout worshlppors.
Hlstory contalns the fact. The cause
and cure mlght bo dlscussod at tho
Monday meetlng and minlsters, lf such
assembly could escapo tho "Inductlon"
never absent from a church'congress.

"It ls a striking-fact, and ono worth

of-town Democratlc leader at'the Jeffer
