A MYSTERY BRoUGHHT TO LIGHT.

BRAIDwooD, Ill, March 20.-For some
months a series of cunningly executed
thieveries have been executed here. In
that time over $4,000 worth of miners and
carpenters tools have been stolen. Watches
were set but the thief was not discovered.
Suspicion, however, pointed strongly to
Spaniard, Dominic Roggio, dealer in
second hand tools. A descent on his place
to-day revealed $4,000 worth of stolen
tools, and in his cellar $1,700 in gold was
found, which he confessed was realized
from the sale of stolen tools. A large
number of miners identified their prop
erty and entered a complaint against him.

4 plea for Electric Lighting OfStrcets

To the Editor Of the Dispatch:
In view OF the iact that the use OF the
electric light is rapidly increasing in all
the principal cities o. the world, aud that
the cities OF the United States in palticu-
lar are adoplngit for their streets, squares.
and public buildings. and that it, use by
the citizens and manufacturing establish
ment, i recognized a, OF great value and
Importance. especially in the matter OF
healthiulncss and safety, rs well a. i'm the
superior volume and character OF the light.
il seems that its Introduction INTO this city
cannot much longer be postponed or de-
layed. II would be we'll for our City Fa-
thcrS to recognize the fact that the citizens
OF Richmond desire the Use OF the electric
light for their streets, ard require It Tor
their establishments.
Ii i particularly desirable thlt Rich
mond should no longer be pointed out As
the darkest city in this country, and the
only one OF its size that has not lighted its
streets, or portion of them, by electricity.
The subject OF electric lighting is one
worthy OF serious attention ut this time, q
proposition having been made to spend
S2J,0 for the purpose Of increasing the
gaS-workS. which expenditure, it would
appear. could be avoided il the streets were
lighted by electricity. and it seems that
now is the time for the city to make move
in this direction.
II the streets were lighted by electricity
the gas now consumed in the street-lamp,
could be saved for Use bv private con.
sumers. and it is probable that the "a,
ihuS saved would be sufficient for present
requirements without increasing the gas-
works: hence the city would not only save
the money proposed TO be expended on its
gas-works. but j. principal streets would
be brilliantly Illuminated, TO the great com
fort and convenience OF the public. and tC
/ the great advantage OF our Storekecpcr'
and businessmen generally.
| From the rapid strides recently made IL
/ electric lighting il seems clear that within
the near future electricity will entirely
supplant gas for lighting purposes. Thu
is fact that should be recognized by
those suggesting the expenditure OF large
amounts Of money in improving or in
creasing the gas-works. GAS-PAYER.
/ GWell, let each company make the city
proposition. Let lis see what can be done.

The HenricO Murder Case.

To-day the trial Of Charles Henry Lee,
charged with the murder Of Daniel Miller,
will take place i'm the Ilenrico County
Court. The plot thickens, for Barbara Mil
Ter has given evidence against Lee, and
now, in turn, ii seems that party has told
that Barbara'S mother, Lucy Ann Wiikfn-
son, has said that week before the killing
of Daniel Miller that Daniel and Barbara
were living together like eat and dog.
and that Barbara had said that she
was going to get rid OF him." Upon
this evidence Constable Simon Solomon,
armed with the proper papers, yesterday
arrested Lucy Ann Wilkinson and placed
her in Jail. She will be brought before the
grand jury for examination rs an accom-
plicc in the murder OF Daniel Miller. This
Is perhaps IN illustration OF Josh Billings
theory, and shows that poor Daniel erred
when he failed to take Billings's advice.
