An Investigation of the yard follow

householders believed to be those of

however, are inclined to the opinion
that they were those of a boy and a
girl, or possibly two boys. They point
out the fact that It Is scarcely rea

ability to hurl huge rocks through
doors and windows. Huch a course of
revenge or persecution, they say,

Two Arc Arrested.
Charles Smith and Tom Jackson,

by Constable L. D. Martin and a war
rant was Issued charging them •with
stealing fruit and trespass.
I The hoys, with three others, were
i driving wagons along Patterson ave

trees loaded with luscious green fruit
was too tempting for them to resist.
• Each youthful driver deserted his

the land of Mr. A. F. Grimmer to
whom the orchard belonged.
Constable Martin was near at hand
and saw the little negroes enjoying
the green apples He started toward
them and each took a different direc
tion, seemingly leaving their wagons
in the hands of the officer as spoils.
Only two were caught, but the

JOBBERS IRE ROT
Richmond Houses Have Xo Con
nection with Anti-1 rust
Litigation.
PULLED Ofl YEARS AGO
Some Interest, though, i- Mani
fested in Case 'Against
Southern Grocers.
Practically none of, the llichmond
jobbers or manufacturing concerns, so
tar as can be learned, are connected
with the Southern Wholesale Grocers'
Association, named defendant In a
suit which the government has de
termined to Institute in the North
ern district of Alabama charging vio
lation of tne Sherman anti-truat law
on tne part of the association and
asking that it be dissolved on the
ground that it constitutes a combina
tion and conspiracy In restraint ot
trade.
Time was when a number of Rich
mond houses were associated with
the organization, but It appears that
a previous suit of the same char
acter caused them to withdraw and
to seek safer and better means ol
conducting their business.
Withdrew Decade Ago.
One Richmond jobber stated Thurs
day that his firm withdrew from the,
association fully ten years ago, and
he thought that was about the time
the other local houses pulled out, too.
He said that since then the Rich
mond concern* had been doing busi
ness on their own hook and had never
regretted severing relations with the
Southern organization
Inquiry at the Chamber of Com
merce elicited virtually the same in
formation fr'-ni Secretary Dunlop, 1
who stated that he did not know ”W.
A. Scott, of Virginia," whose name Is
the only one from this State ap
pearing among the co-defendants In
the hill already drawn up. It was
stated by a Richmond jobber, how
ever, that he thought Mr. Scott does
business In th, southwestern part or
the State.
Interest Manifested.
Although Richmond firms have no
connection with the accused associa
tion, considerable Interest in the case
is manifested lot ally In view of the '
tact that Mr. Egbert G. Heigh, retired
wholesaler and manufacturer of this
city, is a former president of the or
ganization- and for some ><ars took
an active interest In Its welfare. Mr. j
Heigh retired from the preside nev In
1S9T, and on that occasion was pre- j
s«nted with a beautiful silver ser
vice by the other members as a token
of their respect and esteem. In those
days the affairs of the association
were conducted on it plane that re
flected great credit on Mr. Heigh and
its other officers, it Is said
lltirvey-Blgant.

ANOTHER REVERSAL
Bttrriftrr Parish D^fond* Own
Caso in Hustings Court and
i' Acquitted.
INSPECTOR BECK ROTTED
| Attorney T itled for Xot Tearing
Down. Building Proves
Structure Safe.
Following close upon the reversal
of one of Justice John Crutchfield's
numerous automobile speeding convic
tions Wednesday a second victory was
scored <»n the Police Court emperor,
when J Samuel Parrish, barrister,
defended his own ratio and secured a
; reversal of a recent Police Court de
1 vision convicting him of failing to
tear down an alleged unsafe stable in
the rear of his home, No. JO 14 Stuart
avenue.
Mr. Parrish proved to the satisfac
tion of a jury in Hustings Court Xo. 1
that the building was not unsafe.
Building Inspector Beck’s strenuously
given testimony to the contrary, not
withstanding
! Incidentally, even had the jury
.brought In a verdict of guilty, the ver
diet might have been act aside by
Judge Witt on a technical point raised
by Mr. Parrish following his cross ex
! animation of Mr. Bock.
The decision ends a triangular war
of long standing, in which Justice
(Crutchfield and Inspector Beck com
bined their forces against Mr. Par
rish. The latter was arrested and
given ten days in which to tear down
the building. Instead he had the
structure treated to a coat of white
wash and stood pat. He was arrested
again and fined 110, Justice Crutch-,
field adding, the pleasing information
that he intended to fine him $10 for
every day he left the building stand-1
lng.
Mr. Parrish appealed, It was a eus
ot Parrish vs. Beck, and these two
fought It out before Judge Witt, The
former won by plating many witnesses
on the stand, all testifying that they
regarded the stable as being so staunch
that It wvuld take several strong dou
ble horse teama to tear tl down,
t/tmllfy in Cltanccry,

Bulletin No. 44.
Rebuilding the University College of Medicine.
The Same Dispensary-Another View.
The Free Dispensary of the UNIVERSITY COLLEGE OF MEDICINE has been
the theme of three bulletins. This is the last on that subject.
We spoke of charity. We prefer the word “beneficence,” because it includes what
is usually called charity and more. Charity is what we give away; beneficence is the
good we do.
It is a good thing to give hundreds of dollars worth of medicine annually to the
poor; it is a good thing to give thousands of dollars worth of medical service to the sick
each year; it is a good thing to make the laborers and factory hands able to do more
and better work for their employers; it is something to make the cooks and housemaids
strong and amiable. These services alone constitute a great benefaction to Richmond.
Tint there is a greater benefaction, a more real service still, hnd its operation ie not
confined to Richmond. .>
Let us illustrate;
You are run over or hurt in the street. The nearest doctor is called, or the ambu*
lance surgeon is summoned. Your life is in his hands. He is young. Will he do?
Yes. Why? Because of the practical experience he receives in this Free Dispensary.
You arc in the country and are taken with a serious illness. You cannot be moved.
The young physician calls. Your all depends on him. Can he diagnose the case?
Can he make the necessary microscopical examination? He can. He has made hun
dreds of such examinations and diagnoses under the direction of his teachers for these
poor people in the Free Dispensary of the UNIVERSITY COLLEGE OF MEDICINE.
Do you ^eo howr the benefaction extends? It is a benefaction—good done. Isn't
it ?
And you never thought before that you and everybody else were interested in this
Free Dispensary. Did you?
And don't you think you ought to help rebuild it?
Perhaps you cannot give milch.
Then Give All You Can.

FITTING CLOSE OF
-Mnnrhpster High School Ends
Successful Season With Many
Graduates.
The night exercises were a fitting
close to the last year's work of the
Manchester High School. Tho class
was the largest that ever graduated
from this school.
Those who took part were Miss Zu
1 i* hie Du Val, salutatorian; Miss Anna
Hear, essayist, and Miss Nannie Va
den, valedictorian. All seemed to real
ire the importance of the event, and
put forth every effort to make it a
buccess. The add.ess was delivered
hy Prof. I). R. Anderson, of Richmond
College, and the diplomas were pre
sented by Mr. Charles Hu taler, chair
man of the Richmond School Board.
One pleasing feature of the occasion
was.the Presentation of the..metises of
t► red hy Mr. R. C. Broadduk There
was one for each of the three depart
ments—primary, grammar and high
school. They were won as follows:
Primary. Grace Handley. of 3 H
' lass; grammar, Laura Anderson, 7 A
eliss, and High School, Henry Gar
rett, of 3 A class.
These medals were presented hy Pr.
.7 A. C. <'handler, superintendent of
schools. The alumni medal offered by
the Alumni Association to a mem
ber of the senior class making the
highest average during the senior year
was won hy Miss Nannie Vaden anu
was presented by Pr. M. P. Rucker.
As a mark of kindness to the seniors
the class song was written by Mr. a,
M Poyle, of this city.
As the fair young graduates sat
upon the stage and received the choic
est flowers from their friends, surely
there was presented a picture that will
live long In the minds and the hearts
of the people of the Southsldo. Even
though other students of the South
side High School may go to the John
Marshall High School and have great
er advantages, the boys and girls wl.l
always remember the last commence
ment of the Manchester High School.
While the number promoted from
the 7 R class to the High School was
not as large as usual, yet all students
displayed a degree of proficiency
which reflects credit on teacher and
pupil. Those promoted include Annie
Atwell, John Taylor, Mary Yates, Er
nest Hawkins, Temple Snelling*. Mar
garet Gary, Vlrgie Malone, Marie Dal
ton, Stanley Morrissett, Edward An
