No., 1102 Hull Street. {
A search is being made by the police
for the young whlto man, Ilobert S.
Iliiguo, who was nrrested on Tuesday
night and released on his own recognlz
nni'c to appear In tho Alayor's court yes
tcrday,
Ungilo Is charged with being disorderly
nini with trespassing upon the premises
of bis aunt.
He could give no bond, and In a nym
piithotlc strain and upon his promise to
(appear In court at the proper time to
(answer the charge, th? young muri wns
given bis liberty. Tin did not show tip,
however, and It is ?iiilte safe to say Hint
Under similar circumstances In tlie fu?
turi! 'SqUlre Jordan's tender heart will
refuse? to shed Its sympathetic sparks.1
Al UNICI PAL C'AAil'AION.
There will bo little Interest In the com?
ing, coiincllmsjilo campaign, im there is
rio riposinoli to any of the candidates. Tho
political lenders, however, are anxious
that a full vote bo polled, enei to this end
the registration books In thn Third Wnrd
?will be open oil Thursday and Friday, so
that nil who havo failed to register may
do so. \
SENATORIAL CANDIDATE.
So far no opposition for the candidacy
of Judge Clopton for senatorial honors
bus developed. It Is not believed thnt
thiTo will be opposition, an Judge Clojetein
Is unusually popular throughout Hie ?cii
ntorinl dl?trlct. nnd It Is conceded that
he will have tho Interest of the district
at he-art.
SATISFACTION OF CITIZENS.
Alnn.V expressions of satisfaction have
been moeio by Citizens at thn action of the |
Ordinance Committee In disposing of tbo
qiK'stlon of 11 telephone franchise. I
Since tlie consolidation of the Southsldc |
nnd the Boll Company a number of busi- j
uosa men ?nel privato citizens have been
without telephone service, and have been
unable to get such service, because the
Bell Company liolel no franchise and
could make no connection for persons
desiring their service.
Now, within the next few weeks all
will be clear nailing, provided the Bell
Company r?cures the frnne-lil-ee nt tho
public auction which will be held ns
peion as the action of the Ordinance Com
inllco Is ratified by the City Council.
ST?RMT IMPROVEAIENTS.
As soon as the weather settles down t!io
City Engineer will get active, under the
?direction of the Street Committee, and
many needed permanent Improvements
will bo made.
AN ACTIVE MEMBER.
It Is a most notablo fact that Council?
man P.. V. Owen, of tho Third Ward, ts
one of the most active and valuable
members of the Council,
lie has bee'ii aptly termed the watch
?log of the Council, and takes part In
everything tliat comes up for the interest
nnd benefit'of the city, l?o attends every
Important ?rommlttee meeting, whether
lie be a member of the committee or not,
nnd Is ono of the best posteli men On tho
affairs of the city In Council.
Air. Owen wilt be up for re-election to
the Council, and has no opposition.
His hobby Is a new City Hall, and
through persistent endeavors and logical
arguments ho -will In all probability see
a realization of bis hopes when tho next
liuelget Is made up,
He has figured out that a handsome
end commodious edifico may be cri-cted
adjoining tho courthouse for $15,000.
IN'CREASKT) POPULATION.
Thn Increase ?n popluatlon of .Manches?
ter by nearly a thousand souls, within
less than four years, ls received ns an In?
dication that the city Is rapidly going for?
ward as a mnnufncturlng nnd railroad
center, and as a place of residence -with
nil advantage's of people who are In busi?
ness or tnule In Richmond,
Some years ng;o Alanchester was re
forrod to as a finished olty, but the cen?
sus figures <lo not bear out that state?
ment, and the fnct that a most prosper?
ous work hns been established within the
past few months Indicates that not only
tho population, but the business has in?
creased.

MR. JONES ??? RUN
Thought Thnt He May Take a Try for a
Seal In the Semte.
Some of the friends of Congressman
William A. Jones In thin eltv express
tbe belief thnt this well known Virginian,
the oldest member of the State's delega?
tion In th" House of Sem-eientnlives, mnv
be a eandirlnle for the finitivi States Sen?
ate In 1!-T> ngalnst Senator Martin. Mr.
Jones has made no announcement on tho
subject so far es known, but some of his
enthusiastic admirers unhesitating de?
clare that he would make the strongest
candidate ngalnst Senator Martin that
could be pul forward by th?; opponents of
hi? re-election,
Mr. Jones Is conceded by all to be a
strong and a pure man, and has been ac?
tively Identified with the movement to
secure popular expression in the choice
of senators. It Is not believed thnt Mr.
Jones would run If Governor Montague
were a candidate, and. on the other hand.
It Is doubt ful whether the f?overnor would
be a candidate If the Congressman entered
the rnce. Ex-Governor Tyler. It Is said,
will. In any event, be a candidate In the
primary for the sonntorBhlp in 11V6. as?
suming, of course, t.hat he does not recon?
sider and change his mind. The race may
narrow down to two candidates, but the
Indications now are that there may
be three.

WILLARD'S FRIENDS
ARE VERY ACTIVE.
Lieutenant-Governor's Stock
Seems to Be Going
Upwards.
The friands of Lieutenant-Governor Jo
soph E. Willard are becoming very active
in his interest for the Democratic nomina?
tion for Governor In 1306, and It 1b no
disparagement to any to say-that at pres?
ent the greater part of tha gubernatorial
talk seems to be In favor of the popular
presiding ofllcer of tha Senate.
Captain Willard has a large number
of friends In this city who be?
lieve that ho Is the logical candidate
for the governorship, and thoy do not
hesitate to say so. Around the hotel
lobbies by night thoy may bo seen talk?
ing for their favorite and urging that the
young Fairfax leader should be given an
opportunity to fill tho gubernatorial
cluilr.
There has been much talk concerning
the probability of Captain Willard com?
bining with one or another of the leading
senatorial candidates, but from what can
be learned from those close to the young
candidato, ho Is just "sitting still in the
bont," nntl "paddling In the middle of the
stream." ^Cnptaln Willard Is known to
have a great mnny strong friends in both
factions of the party, and nearly every
one says he gives every promise of being
a very dangerous candidate for tho nomi?
nation.

THE REQUEST OE
STREET-CARMEN.
From present Indications it looks very
much as if the Virginia Passenger and
Power Company does not intend forward?
ing a reply to the local order of Street
Railway Employes, who are petitioning
for an increase in pay and who wish the
question submitted to a board of arbitra?
tion. However, this ia not certain, and
Geiier?j Alanagor Huff, who Is non-com
mltal, may send an answer to the last re?
quest within the ntixt day or so.
If the car company compiles with the
request of Its employ?s U will iLgree to have
the questions involved adjudicated by arbi?
tration, and the local association of Street
Railway Employes will be notified of tli|>
determination by June 1st, which \ how
only three days off. Ami should not reply
be received from General Alnnoger Iluft
by this time by tlie Executive Board, it
will be up to them to determine what ac?
tion is to be taken.
The presumption that Mr. Huff will not
agree to arbitrate is 'based upon the origi?
nal reply of this gentleman to the demand
of the employes. It will be remembered
that In this communication tlie Genernl
Manager sot forth a number of reasons
why tlie car company cannot accede to
the demands, saying that to comply with
the request would.be to practicably bank?
rupt the company.
And since then officials of the company
hnve stated that the Richmond Street
Railway Employes are receiving more
pay than like employes In any other city
in tho South, save New Orleans. And,
they hold, that provisions are no higher
here than In other places.
Air. Williarn Northrop. assistant secre?
tary and treasurer of tho company, yes?

of the financial condition of the Passen?

PURE ELECTIONS
The Barksdale Bill Delaying the An?
nouncement of Candidacy.
The fact that the Barksdale 'elections
b'll. Imposing a penalty upon candidates
for'the offer or gift of money or other
valuable considerai Ion to win the votes or
the support of other voters, does not be?
come effective Is having the eiftrct of de?
laying announcements of candidacy until
after that date In tho county nnd In th's
city. If ? mnn announces himself a can?
didate now for the Genernl Assembly or
for ? county ofllce, he will, subject hlm
eelf to appenls for employment and finan?
cial assistance by those experienced
county and city men who have for years
received pay for their services.
In fact, some men declare boldly that
tho law will have at least the good ef?
fect of preventing the "bleeding" of can?
didates for ofllce bv the ward and district
politicians. After the 1st of July the
candidato may stand the leeches off with
the assurance that ho can do nothing for
fear'-of the heavy pennltles Imposed by
th.e law. Th's Is regarded by some ns
tho explanation of the fact thnt there tire
but three tentative candidates for tho
four vacancies likely to occur-In the city's
delegation In the House.
STRENGTH comes from well digested
und thoroughly assimilated food, flood's
Sarsaparilla tones tho dlgostlvo organs,
and thus builds up tho strength. If you
are getting "run down," begin taking
Hood s nt once. It gives nerve, mental
and digestive strength.

Oriental Consistory Ataaons, 32d degree).
In ? recent letter from 5000 Allchigan
Avenue, Chicago, III., Air. Aloody says
tho following:
"For over twenty-fivo years I suf?
fered from catarrh, nnd for over ten
years I suffered ftpm catarrh of the
stomach terribly.
"I have taken all kinds of medicines
and have been treated by all kinds of
doctors, as thousands of my acquaint?
ances arc aware In different parts of
tho United States, where I have travel?
ed, but my relief was only temporary,
until a little over a year ago I started
to take Peruna, and at the present time
I am better than I have been for twen?
ty years.
"The soreness has left my stomach
entirely and I am free from Indigestion
and dyspepsia, and will say to all who
are troubled with catarrh or stomach
trouble of any kind, don't put It off and
suffer, but begin to take Peruna right
away, and keep It up until you are
cured, as you surely will bo if you per?
severe.
"My wife, as many In the southwest
can sny, was troubled with a bnd cough
and bronchial trouble and doctors all
over tho Country gavo her up to dio, na
they coulel do nothing more for her. Sho
began taking Perunn, with tho result
that sho Is better now than she hns beon
In years, and her cough has almost left
her entirely. Tho soreness hns left her
lungs and sho ls us well n.i she over was
In her life, with thanks, as abo says, to
Peruna. Tours vory truly,
T. P. MOODY.
Catarrh In Its various forms Is rnpldly
becoming a general curse. An undoubt?
ed remedy hns been discovered by Dr.
Hnrtmnn. This remedy hns been thor?
oughly tested during the past forty years.
Prominent men ????? come to know of
Its virtues, nnd are making public utter?
ances on tho subject. To save tho coun?
try we must save the people. To snvo
the people we must protect them from
disease. The disenso thnt Is nt once the
most prevalent and stubborn of euro ls
catarrh.
If one wore to mako a list of tho differ?
ent names that have been applied to ca?
tarrh in different locations and organs,
tlie result ' would be astonishing. Wo
havo often published a pnrtlal list of
these names, nnd tho surprise caused by
tlie first publication of it to all people,
both professional and non-profdsslonal,
