The real value of an article can only
be proven by practical test. This is
the precept of the oldest tradesmen in
the world-men who, knowing the
character of their goods, do not fear
the result of a practical trial. Some
people may term this egotism, but it
Is nothing more than honest dealing.
Dr. Swayne made this announcement
years ago when his Pills for dyspep-
STA, biliousness, sick headache and
spring complaints were first intro
duced, and he reiterates it now. The
reward of merit is success.

There will be a special meeting OF the
Board OF Aldermen 1T Z O'Clock this eve
ming to consider the gas-supply question.
The public will be deeply interested in the
proceedings, since involved in the selec-

Shall the price OF gas be reduced to Sl.40
or less?
The building No. 01G Main street is being
remodelled TO conform to the present grade
OF the street. When finished it will ko oc-

then be torn down. and in its place the

structure.

finding his victim resisting, turned and
ran.
Nobody in Richmond has thought it
worth while to examine our hotels TO see
II they would be safe for the guests in case
Of fire. In Manchester the grand jury at
tends TO tire-escapeS. Either the Mayor OF
the grand Jury ought to institute an inyes-
tigation here.
After the price Of gas is reduced from S2
to 81 40. or less. il is TO be hoped that the
custom will he introduced Of allowing the
Theatre audience to get out before the
lights are shut off.
The Mayor and number Of c0uncilmen
will tomorrow evening leave the city riG

operate festival.
Their fun will not he at the city's expense I;
nor Will il interfere with the proposed re-

The audience at the Theatre last night
was not large one, and while the acting
OF Miss Rose Eytinge commanded the adj
miration of all present, the play proved to
he one OF those French ones which fail OF
popularity here. 1t has been truly said OF
her that .'there is In all her repertoire no
part in which she runs the whole gamut OF
human feelings with such mastery as"in
Felicia; there is no part she plays in which
the soul OF woman is painted with such
superb skilI"; but so far as Richmond
people are concerned, they would have
preferred TO see her in Lady Gay Spanker,
In which part much OF her earlier reputa-
tion was made, and which Il free from the
objections to which Felicia is liable.
In the play last night Mr.. Lawrence was
Captain John Felicia's SOM, Mr.. George
Morton was Monsieur Cassagnac, Miss
Knowlton Dolores, and Miss French Lean
or. All the parts were well filled, and the
play moved forward with charming smooth
ness. On both nights the acting was good,
and those who can reconcile themselves to
French plays will find this company's pre-
sentation OF their two--Princess OF Paris
and Felicia--very satisfactory.

For the Dlslalch'I
The following sentence from the letter
of B. b., the Richmond correspondent OF
the Petersburg Inder-Appeal. has OCCASION
ed some comment, and excited some sur
prise:
"The Old faculty admit that their cause
is "done ior,' and will make no COM
plaint."
In reference to this sentence we are a'l-
lhorized to say that so lar from abandon
inc their cause, the faculty have always
been confident Of final success, and never
rs much so rs now.
Besides the plain wording OF the charter
under which they act. they are familiar
with its history and all the circumstances
under which it originated, which give
them q much stronger position than the
mere language OF the charter itself does.
Furthermore. acting as they are under
legal advice-adyice coming from the aDlesI
lawyers OF the COmm0nwealth-they are
assured that their position is impregnable,
and that their rights will be sustained by
the courts.
The late Judge Ould, after examining
fully into the case, was so firm in his ASST
rance that he said, III he could not sus-
tain the position Of the college before the
court he did not want another case to try.
