The Richmond Palladium, Tuesday, February 26, 1907. Page Three. Members of the Local Auto Club Ape Told How to Avoid Prejudice Members of the local Automobile Club have received circulars from the Secretary of the New York club railed The Automobile Club of Amer ica. The circular is the same as that Issued recently by the officers of that club to Its members in which a set of rules, as adopted by the executive Committee, is published. The object of the rules is to over come the prejudice that the public has against autoists. The rules are calculated to instruct the automobil ist how to avoid being: objectionable to the public and how to prevent ac cidents. The committe that drew up the rules is known as the Public Safety Committee and the rules have been adopted by the club and all members are obligated to abide by them. The circular states that when properly handled the automobile is the safest vehicle in the world, but In the hands of a wreckless party it is the most dangerous. It is stated as a reason why auto mobilists should be cautious In driv ing their machines, that last year 203 people were Hlled. and 351 in jured In auto accidents. It is also stated that the pitiable feature of Cripple Was Released. W. Keller, a cripple, who was ar rested Saturday for begging, was re leased yesterday on his promise to get out of the city, county and state as rapidly as his legs would carry him. "The quickest way out of the state is to wander' eastward," the court informed Keller. If j'ou haven't the time to exercise regularly, Doan s neguiets win pre-j vent constipation. They induce a mild easy, healthful action of the bowels without griping. Ask your druggist for them. 2oc. FIRE ALARM SIGNALS JO. BOX.

From a legal standpoint the circular states that automobillsts have equal rights with other vehicles but that an infringement on the rights of others is a direct violation and such parties become law break ers. It states that the law or the public will not stand -or willful reck lessness and that such people should be ness and that such people should be ostracised from the society cf thoughtful devotees of the sport. The rules prohibit rapid driving by street cars, across intersections of streets, or on crowded driveways. It Insists on the use of the horn should be judicious, not calculated to frighten people but to simply warn people. The circular states: "We urge upon motorists the wisdom of not using open acetylene search lights in well lighted cities; also not to 'cut out the muffler', and to avoid flooding the engine with oil thus creating offensive odors and smoke. The speed of a machine should be limited to the point that it will at all times be so under control that it could be stopped instantly." AMERICAN VIOLINISTS. New Methods In an Art That la Old A Pittsburg Romance. One of the musical instruments whose popularity never seems to dimin Ish is the violin, alias the fiddle. There is a story to the effect that one of tin pioneer settlers of western Pennsylva nia gave l,5o0 acres of laud in ex change for a beautiful instrument made by Stelaer, the successor of tb. renowned Stradlvarius, and the lam, thus given is the site of Pittsburg Then there is the story of the violin maker In New York who bought up old rafters to turn Into instruments, some of his choicest productions being carv ed out of the wood taken from St. Matthew's, a downtown church razed about half a century ago. In the country districts the fiddler who presides at dances in barns or town halls is as prominent a figure as ever, and in the schools of music the student of the violin Is In a fair way to become the nucleus of the future American orchestra, which today is largely made up of Europeans. In Bos ton George W. Chadwlck, the well known composer, has Introduced the practice of using members of the big Symphony Orchestra to sit alongside the pupils composing the Conservatory orchestra and "speed up" the perform ances. All advanced pupils are required to attend the rehearsals regularly, and the performances are under the direc tion of Mr. Chadwick himself. There is a good denl of public spirit behind this undertaking, for as the Symphony Orchcstra has the support of a banker, Major Henry L. Illgginson, so the Conservatory; where this amateur or chestra Is training, has a magnificent i concert hall, the gift of a Boston mer-1 chant. Ebcn D. Jordan. Every player in this amateur organi zation is provided with a fine instru ment, if not his own, then one loaned to him. One of the leading man ufacturers of violins is authority for the statement that the instruments made in this country are worthy of comparison with any ever made of old and that It is a mistake to assume that the art of manufacturing fine violins passed away with the school of Cre mona; hence the assurance that music students in the United States have as many If not more advantages at their disposal than those who study abroad. In some parts of the country expert ness with the violin is a feature of home trainiug. but nowadays Ameri can music schools, particularly schools in cities where there are first class pro fessional orchestras, are devoting more attention than ever to the development of players gifted with an aptitude for the art of Paganini. . Iron Production. The leading technical paper of Ger many points out that the United States Is striding forward so fast in the pro duction of Iron that now it not only leads all the other nations Individually, but comes near to surpassing them all combined. In 1905 Germany produced 11,000,000 tons, England 9,500,000, the others smaller amounts down to 47,000 tons produced by India, while the total product of the world outside the Unit ed States was 31.000.000. Tet in that same year we produced 23.000,000 tons, more than half the outside world's to tal product. Figured. by percentages, the gains of Canada and Japan are more remarkable than ours. As com pared with 1904, Canada very nearly doubled and so did Japan. . wo LrauiBS outUo Type. The two leading types of southern population a plainly the Virginian and the South Carol iniau of the tide water. For this fact there are both his torical and physiographic reasons. Vir ginia was the first and South Carolina the second southern colony to be settled by well to do Englishmen who desire to found permanent homes. The intro duction of slavery and its application tc staple crops speedily gaTe an aristocratic tone to society in both provinces, bu between them, in North Carolina, am to the south of them, in Georgia, ther were fewer wealthy settlers and nc staple crops to- speak of, so that from the first society iu these provinces was more or less democratic in spite of slav ery. Before, however, the gentry of the coast could expand and occupy the coun try lying between the Blue Ridgs and the Alleghacies and beyond the latter range of mountains a very different sort of people had moved in and taker possession. Among these people, owinr to their habits and the nature of their soil, slavery could take no strong hold; hence they remained democratic and distinct from their tidewater neighbors, as indeed tber an to this day.

From other cities comes echoes of the phenomenal success of Hal Reid's melodrama, "Custer's Last Fight." Patrons of the Gennett will have an opportunity of seeing this great pro duction as it comes to that theater next Monday. Many books have been writen on the subject, but this is the first time it ever has been staged. The play calls for a much larger number of people and the expense of mounting and carrying it is so great, that few managers cared to undertake venture. This company carries ! ty people, a car load ot special j J. .Lc Tn the forty scenery, horses, dogs and wolves. In the company is a band of full-blooded Indians, cowboys and scouts. The play itself is a faithful portrayal of life in the early West and the inci dents leading up to Custer's fight with the Indians on the Little Big Horn. The world-renowned government scout, "Buffalo Bill," is the leading character and around him and General Custer, the author has written a ro mantic and thrilling story of love and war. The play opens at the home of "Buffalo Bill" and the scenes change during the action to the Indian strong hold and, finally to the famous battle ground. Then, comes a grand repro duction of Custer's desperate "last stand." The finale is Buffalo Bill's historical duel with "Yellow Hand," chief of the Cheyenne nation. Alberta Gallatin Gennett. Government censorship in England is a good deal more serious a matter than free-born American citizens are apt to think it is. Mr. Ernest Ship man, the New York theatrical manager is now in a position to testify to this fact if a document " recently : received from London is what it purports to be. Mr. Shlpman states that it is a doc ument from the office of the Lord Chamberlain, the British official cen sor of siage plays in England. The text of the document sets forth that "Dorothy Vernon of Haddon Hall " the I piec founded on Mr. Charles Major's novel of the same title and in which Miss Alberta Gallatin will appear at the Gennett on Saturday, March 2. cannot be produced in Great Britain and Ireland or any of His Majesty's Our 5th Will pass into history as the greatest sale ever held in this store and the finish will be really more interesting than the beginning because of the exceedingly . low prices quoted on all odd lots and remaining remnants.

The story of the play deals with in teresting episodes of the reign of Eliz abeth, queen of England, and introduc es very attractively the character of Mary, Queen of Scots. The Lord Chamberlain apparently thinks some of the incidents throw a rather too lu rid light on royalty. The peculiar feature of the case is the fact that the play had already had one performance in England for copy right purposes, and, was really licensed by the Lord Chamberlain, previous to which the customary two copies were deposited for the libraries. Evidently the reader of plays in the Lord Chamberlain's office had failed to read the manuscript carefully, and a ?tcond perusrl brought o light the passages objected to.
