Our reporter, in making bis customary
rounds in the upper part Of the city, found
news very scarce. Not even Captain Epps,
or Sergeant Thomas, or Sergeant Parater, or
Sergeant Cousins, all Of whom are generally
newsy, could give him an item, and be was
about to return to the Office without single
scratch in his note book. when the thought
occurred to him that Justice Thomas NJ.
Saunders might tell bin something about
things in the West End or on Brook
avenue. Mr.. Saunders, IS everybody
knows, is the popular druggist at the
corner Of Brook avenue and Marshall
street, opposite the Third police station.

of the most attractive drug establishments
in Richmond. Our reporter stepped into
the store and was met bv the sffable pro-
prietor with a cordial shake OF the hand

to Justice Saunders and sailed forth.
