Petersburg, Va., Deeoinber 11.
Tho Board of Aldermen at 11 o'clock
to-night after a lengthy discussion,
tail members being present, 'defeated
the proposition to issue till, 000 in
bonds for public Improvements as au?
thorized by the Council, und Im?
mediately afterwards, by a tie vote,
refused to adopt the ordinance as orig?
inally drawn and offered by the 1**1-i
nance Committee providing for an Is-'
due of 1186,000 of bonds.
.Motions to defer consideration of
the bond Issue for thirty days and to
refer tho matter to a vote of the peo?
ple, were voted down; the Hoard de?
ciding to take t tie responsibility for
defcullng or passing the ordinance on
its own shoulders.
A largo number of representative
business men filled the Council cham?
ber to hear and take part In the dis?
cussion. Tho , main argument against
the bond Issue was Hint the current
revenues of the city, economically iid
lhtnlBtcred, are HUlticIcilt to make the
contemplated public Improvements us
fast an the work can be done.

used. It is perfectly safe at all times and
dispels colds, headaches and the pains
caused by indigestion and constipation so
promptly and effectively that it is the one
perfect family laxative which gives satis?

millions of families who have used it and
who have personal knowledge of its ex?

No Need to Have
Superfluous Hair
(The Modern Beauty.)
In dclatone, a simple way has been
found to remove hairy growths front the
Jace, neck or arms, and one application
usually is sufficient to permanently ban
ish every trace of hair or fuzz.
This treatment consists in the applica?
tion of a pa*te made with water and ?
little of the powdered delatone. After
remaining on two or three minutes, rub
it off and wash the skin, and it will be
white, firm and hairless. Druggists will
charge a dollar for an original ounce pack?
age of delatone, but that is much cheaper
than the electric needle and no pain or
inconvenience is experienced.

Five Candidates for Auditor Be?

test for Register.
As bhe duy approaches when the
Joint Democratic caucus of the General
Assembly will name what are known
as "basement olllcers" for tht! ensuing
term of four years, the contest over
these positions assumes a more Inter?
esting; nspect. With tlvo men earnestly
socking the position of Auditor of Pub?
lic Accounts, an<l with two contending
for the place of Register of the Land
Ofliee. all sorts of gossip has been till?
ing the political air.
Naturally, any statement which
might be advanced as to the relative
strength of the men wiho want to be
Auditor would ho disputed by tho
friends of at least four?perhaps of |
all five.
Yet It may bo said, probably with
out ch-illenge, that unless conditions
change. O. Lee Moore will go Into the
caucus with a plurality. Ills support?
ers claim ho will have .a majority; his
opponents Just as certainly sny that
he will not, and that unless he can
win on tho llrsl ballot Iho will.not win
at all.
IMaytng Second Choice.
Second choice pledges are figuring to
a largo, extent. Inasmuch as several
ballots arc expected by a good many,
and it Is said that of these many have
been captured 'by Charles A. Johnston,
of Montgomery. It Is also true that
not a few sreond choice votes will go
to Colonel Iv. C. Massio. this boing
truo of the Richmond members who
are pledged to Mr. Moore?a majority
of the local delegation.
Supporters of II. M. Da rnall, of Roa
noke, and of Rosowell Page, of Han?
over, say that after the first ballot
votes will be swung to tihcm. It Is,
of course, to be remembered that un?
der the rules of tho caucus the lowest
man will -be dropped after each bajiyt
in which an election cannot bo so
cured.
During the last few days the. contest
for Register of tho Land Office be?
tween Colonel John W. Richardson, the
Incumbent, and Major Charles G. Kizer,

Girlish Complexion
Easily Acquired
(From Woman's Magazine.)
If your complexion's bad just try this
simple, harmless home treatment. It will
prove a revelation to you. This evening
before retiring cover the entire face with
a thin layer of ordinary niercolized wax,
which you can get at any drug store. In
the morning wash this off with warm
water, followed by a dash of rold. Fine
particles of the lifeless scarf skin adhere
to the wax and arc removed with it. Re?
peat this treatment nightly until the en?
tire surface skin is absorbed in this way.
The result?the loveliest natural complex?
ion imaginable. The fresh, new skin then
in evidence is soft and velvety in appear?
ance, delicately tinted with the bloom of
you tli.
The old surface skin comes off so grad?
ually, there is no pain, no inconvenience;
and no detension indoors. Chaps, black?
heads, freckles, moth patches, liver spots,
pimples Or any eruptions arc, of course,
removed with rhe .->kin itself.

The grentost cotton crop on record,
li.SSD.OOO bales, is tho Department of
Agriculture's official estimate of tho
country's total production this year.
This Is greater by 1.117.000 bales than
tho record crop of 1D01. Officials ol
the department were not surprised at
the s-l/.e of tho crop,, as condition fig?

indicated thn^ the production would
bo large. Unofficial estimates made
monthly during tho year, using the
department's condition figures as a
basis, wore greatly exceeded by tho
official estimate made to-day. Kvery
.State In the cotton belt, except Mis?
sissippi, .Louisiana Arkansas and
Oklahoma, established new records for
production.
