fortunate persons whose property is to be
subjected to sale as delinquent on tax ac-
count under the city ordinance is great
and crying outrage. The City Council OF
Petersburg inflicted the same sort OF out
rage upon their poor people until the atten-
ton OF the Legislature was called to 1t,
when an act was passed to confne the CouE-
Gil within reasonable limits. In times like
these, when few but those i'll receipt OF
comfortable incomes from money lent our,
or those who are receiving salaries from
city or State, can easily get food and clothes
for themselves and families, the Council
should have some mercy. Some large pro-

will have their property sold for taxes
soon.

I FIRST VIRGINIA REGIMENT IMPORTANT
MEETING OF OFFICERS. meeting OF the
officers OF the First regiment held Satur-
day night q resolution was adopted appoint
ing committee to invite Rev. DR.. Hoge,
the chaplain, to deliver lecture for the
benefit OF the regiment.
A committee was also appointed to inquire
into the feasibility Of an excursion down
the river by the regiment.
Another committee was directed to ,mske
the necessary inquiries in regard to camp
for the regiment for week during the sum-
mer.
The Committee on Armory reported that
it was their intention to publish an address
to the citizens generally, asking signatures
to petition to the Common Council to
build for the regiment an armory over the
n1eat-market corner OF Sixth and Marshall
streets.
In this address will be shown that, as q
matter OF economy to the city as we'll as Tor
the good OF the First regiment, the present
offers the best opportunity likely to be pre-
sented to make this Improvement, and that
the interest on the appropriation for the ar
mory will be about one half Of what is now
annually expended blythe city for the regl-
ment, leaving out Of the question the in
creased value Of the surrounding property.
The chairman also stated that the scheme
met with the appreciation OF nearly every
propertY-holder who had been approached
on the subject.
1t is hoped that no one will refuse to en-
dorse this movement when the petition Is
presented to them. and that when the mat
ter is laid before the city government it will
receive prompt and favorable consideration.
Our military should be encouraged in every
reasonable way. This is an all-important
matter-one which affects the vitality and
general usefulness Of the regiment.

pears in his new play ''Unknown" at the
Theatre tonight, is not unknown to the
Richmond public. He has appeared here
with Misses Nelson, Kate ClaXton, and
other "star" performers. The play has
been received with great applause by the
most critical audiences in the North and
West. Mr.. Stevens is an actor OF great
merit The character is q thoroughly SYM
pathetic one, and he is said to endow it with
unusual pathos and interest. The support
is said to be excellent. A comic element
underlies the play, and adds materially to
its attractiyeness. Miss Hanchett, the lead
ing lady, comes recommended as most
clever actress. "Unknown will be played
for three nights. Secure reserved seats at
Johnston's. As some time has elapsed since
the Theatre has been opened for dramatic
performances it is expected that the season
will be successful one.
