FUNDS FOR
JAMESTOWN
Subscriptions for Stock Com?
ing in Rapidly.
?ROSPECTS ARE BRIGHT
Much of the Preferred Non-Taxable
Stock Now Being Sold Here?Talk
on the Subjccl With Hon,
John Whitehead.
"Tho people of Norfolk have gone to
work in earnest to mise the half million
dollar guarantee lund for the Jamestown
Exposition," said Hon. John Whltehead,
of Norfolk, to a reporter for The Times*
Dispatch yesterday.
"Tbei greater part of that sum has been
subscribed. Three citizens of Norfolk
alono have subscribed for *s45,iA'J ot
the stock, nnel forty more have taken
$110,000 or It. Besides this there aie a
grout many smaller subscriptions, which
In the aggregate will considerably In?
crease! the sum represented by these fig?
ures.
"The people nro also subscribing liberal?
ly to the million dollars of preferred
stock of the Exposition Company and It
Is now being sold In Richmond. This
stock will pay a dividend of four per
cent, and in nun-taxable."
IS MUCH ENCOURAGED.
Mr. Whltehead has been In the city
severa 1 days and expriessc-s hlm.-ielf a?
very much gnitllled and encouraged at
tbo way tho stock is going. He believes
that If all who can wfll tako a small
amount there will be no trouble In sub?
scribing Ilio entire amount ma?le neces?
sary under tbe terms of tho charter for
holding the exposition, that is to say, a
million dollars. Here aro the ligures
given by Mr. Whltehead of tho money
that will b? available for the exposition,
exclusive; of the expected appropriation
rrom the National government:
Guarantee rund. $600,000 00

Portsmouth's pledge subscription 25,000 IX)
Preferri*! stock.,.1,000 000 00
Total.?,125,000 00
"This sum will be Increased to two and
a half millions, subscriptions being made
by all the cities and counties around. The
national government Is confidently ex?
pected to give two Tor one, and that has
been Its policy In such cases," said Mr.
White-head. "That will give ? totul of
seven and a half millions, enough to In?
sure the success of the exposition and Its
conduct on a grand scale. Then there
are the gate receipts and the privileges
which will pay the running expenses.
THE PROPERTY HELD..
"The exposition company owns 380
acres of land, costing It but $140,000, but
which Is worth now at Its market valuo
fully $300,000. The land -was bought
cheaper than the market valuo. The
buildings to be erected for the exposition
will be of such construction und char?
acter that they will be available for use
as factories, warehouses, hotels, stores,
clubs and for others uses, and permanent
streets, well paved, with water and lights,
will be provided. In front of tiie-so
grounds for a distance of several thou?
sand feet the channel of Hampton Roads
is only a few hundred yards from tbe
shore, nnd the water there ls the deep?
est In the harbor, thus affording oppor?
tunity for the establishment of fine
wharves and docks. Already there art
valuable docks and a fine hotel on the
site, nnd access thereto Is easy and swift
by means of tho finest nnd fastest trol?
ley line service in the South. The road
is built with the heaviest rails In use
and on a solid road bed, and the cars
can mske thirty miles an hcur, if neces?
sary, thus putting the exposition site
In easy reach of Norfolk.
"The preferred stock of (he exposition
company, for which I am now soliciting
subscriptions In this city, Is to be pale!
In eight Installments, one every six
months, $11!.?O per share being paid In
ench Installment, on the first of January
and the first of July of each year, until
the whole Is pold. Collections of these
Installments will be mnde from the gen?
eral ofllco In Norfolk."

That the Richmond Art Club has had

timonials of herself, artistically nnd so?

UNIVERSITY OF VIRGINIA, VA.,
?'uno ?.?The all-absorbing topic In col?
lege Is ?he approaching election of a pres?
ident of the University, which Is Bet for
.Saturday of next week. Various opin?
ions are expressed as t?? who will be. the
choice of lb? board, and many are tho
prophesle? mndo Some predict that tho
hoard will not reach a decision at this
meeting, as thoro are so many strong
men to be considered, an?! It will lie euch
a difficult matter to decide between them
hi so short a time. On the other hand, a
well known professor rern irked to-day
that the board would hardly adjourn
before deciding upon some one of the
names mentioned, as the matter was of
too great moment to allow of delay.
THE) BIG THREE.
Tho names of Bussen ?Muore. Charle*
W. Dabney and George W. Mlles are
mentioned more prominently, and It Is'
believed by many that the suicesnful
candidate will come from this list. Each
has many enthusiastic supporters among
professors, alumni and stuilents.
Professor John Basset t Moore, It Is
understood, has Informed hlc friends tbat
his contract with Columbia. University
would prevent him from coceplln-f at
once the presidency of the University of
Virginia. How soon he could give his
entire attention to the duties of the ollce
In case the Board of Visitor? should de?
cide upon him Is not known. His en?
dorsements are pouring In from alumni
scattered all over the country, and Ills
friends predict that he will be chosen
Saturday next and matters soon adjusted
so as to enable him to give his entire
time? and attention to the position.
FRIENDS ACTIVE.
The numerous friends In the North and
South of Professor Charles XV. Dabney
are pushing forward that distinguished
educator, and point with nrld? to his
record at the University of Tennessee,
saying that Just such a man Is wanted
at Virginia. Many regard him .as tho
strongest and most available man for the
position.
Colonel George XV. Miles' friends In the
faculty and among the student body are
urging their candidate with renewed
vigor, saying that his equal as an or?
ganizer Is yet to be found. He Is re?
garded as an able man, of broad mind
nnd pleasant address. The valuable ser?
vices ho rendered the University while
a member of the board won for him
host of admirers, who predict great things
of h'm In case he should be chosen Vir?
ginia's executive ofllcer. He Is a bril?
liant speaker, his address at the last
commencement being the feature of th?
finals.

THE SECRET.
How Doctors Protect Themselves
From Contagious Diseases.
Doctors rarely catch contagious dis?
eases. Almost everybody knows this,
but few know how they escape. Many
believe that the doctor ha.?, some charm
or antiseptic which protects him. Dr.
Hartman lately made the truth of this
matter public, that all might realize its
benefit. Contagious diseases oro con?
veyed by minute organisms known as
disease germs. These germs Hnd their
entrance Into the system through tho
mucous membrane. If the mucous mem?
brane is healthy, they chnnot get into
thf> system. If the mucous membrane Is
affected by catarrh the germs find easy
access. Cntarrhnl Becretlons furnish ex
Hctly the material upon which they
thrive nnd multiply. To get rid of the
catarrh and thus preserve the mucous
membrane healthy. Is the only fay to
be safe from contagious diseases. This
explains why It Is that seme people
catch diseases easier than others.
Every one Is exposed Just tho samo.
Not every one. however, falls a victim
to contagious diseases. A disease germ
cannot enter the system through a per?
fectly healthy mucous membrane. Doe
tors know this, and therefore guard
ngalnst It. Tills Is all the secret thero
Is about It.
Catarrh1 of the Stomach Mont Common
In Summer.
Mr. Virgil Rowolee, Fulton, Oswego
county, N. Y.? writes:
"I nm a well man. I had stomach
trouble for three years, tried several
doctors ard got no help; then tried your
Peruna, and now feel like ? new mnn.
Would recommend It to anybody with
'-?atarrh of the stomach. I hsvc gained
forty pounds nnd cnn eat most anything.
1 cannot nay too much for your medicine.
People tell me I look like a new man. I
Ud? them that I nm. and that It Is Perlina
that did It. I hnd doctored with five dif?
ferent doctors, but did not get any help,
but when 1 began to tako your Peruna
It begun to help me. I now feel like a
well man."?Virgil Rowclce.
Mr. D. B. Vnn Huirle, Highland Park
College. 3I?00 Third Street, Des Moines,
Iowa, writes:
"For many months I have been an?
noyed with stomach troubles. I tried al
kinds of medicines, but they did not di
mo much good. I heard so much of Po?
ru?a that I finally came to tho conclu?
sion to try It, I used ono bottle and com?
moneod to feel some better. I used two
bottles more of It, and felt rid of mj
stomach trouble. I think It my duty te
recommend Peruna to all who nre suffer?
ing from stomach troubles, and I art
sure they will And Peruna an excellent
remedy."?D. B. Van Huffle.
Tho best cure or prevontntlvo known

During the uncertain wenther of spring?
time It Is an unnecessary hazard for any
