afternoon and evening, all the soda
water and confectionery establishment!
were wide open and doing a tremen- i
dous business.
The city drug stores kept open, of

Ice cream or a lemonade or a soda of
some kind, either rode to Richmond ;
proper, or Journeyed to Forest Hill. >
There are many Hebrews doing busi

SOUTHSIDK WANTS
MORE POLICEMEN
Police commissioners of .Richmond
will he asked to assign four ug fire
, additional policemen to the South
aide. At present no definite arrange
ment Is in effect for desk sergeants.
There are five patrolmen, the captain
and the sergeant, who guard the city.
Captain Lipscomb is necessarily on
duty through the day, and this places
Sergeant Wright on duty each night.
Two patrolmen work with him. If
the sergeant makes many rounds of
the city and the two privates are
busy, no one is left to attend to re
ports. etc., that may come to the sta
tion house.
For these reasons a request, it is
authoritatively said, will be made
that the commissioners furnish this
side of the river with about five more
men.
