Tho Pretty Girls of Richmond.

People who have gone to the exposi-
ton at Richmond speak of the many
handsome women seen in the crowds
there. This observation is no doubt well
founded. Richmond is very provincial
city in many respects, but she is metro
pOlitan if not cosmopolitan in the beauty
Of her women, if this meant that the
beauty of her women is unsurpassed.
There are no pre-eminent bellies in Rich
mond now as there were in the days
closely following the war, when Matte
Ould transfixed with both her wit and
beauty everybody she met, but what has
been lost in individual celebrities has
been more than made up in a great multi
tude of wonderfully attractive women.
Many of them are blondes. There is a
larger proportion of blonde women in
Richmond than in any other city in the
country. This comes naturally and
lawfully from their English ancestry.
There is very little of the Spanish or
French intermixture found in Virginia,
and hence the creole type of beauty is
rarely seen in the state. The world
runs after blondes nowadays, especially
after blonde or golden hair; and such
hair as the Richmond women have! It
Is special connection of the genial
southern sun, and is as distinct in its
beauty as the golden leaf tobacco for
which Virginia is so celebrated. If q
man were starting out generally in
search Of bride, if he were willing to
allow himself to drift where the Ameri-
can woman reaches the pink and apex
of physical perfection and attractiveness,
he ought to drift towards Richmond

A House Built of Paper.

There is paper house in Atlanta. No
wood, brick, iron or other material is
used about the building. At 1903 Decatur
street neat little store, painted sky
blue, has attracted considerable atten-
ton recently. The gaudy color is not
the cause of the little building being the
object Of so much attention, but the ma
terial of which it is constructed makes
it novelty. 1t is made entirely of paper.
The store was built by Frenchman
named Smith Spelled, of course, in a
French way), who is agent for the paper
of which it is constructed. The rafters,
the Notwithstanding, the roof and the
flooring are all made Of thick, compressed
paper boards, impervious to water and
as durable as wood. The house cannot
catch on fire as easily as wooden build
ing, because the surface Of the paper is
smooth and hard. The building is used
as store by Neal Kelly, who says he
finds it warm in cool weather and COM
Portable when the weather is warm.-At-
lanta (Ga.) Journal.

The paper on which bank notes are
printed is called distinctive paper" be-
ing used exclusively by the government
for the printing Of bonds and current
notes. The mills where it is manufac-
tured are at Glen Falls, West Chester
county, Penn. An agent of the treasury
department receives the paper direct
from the hands of the manufacturer, and
every precaution is observed in order to
prevent any loss. Short scraps of red
silk are mixed with the liquid pulp in an
engine.
The finished material is conducted to a
wire cloth without passing through any
screens, which might retain the silken
threads. An arrangement above the wire
cloth scatters shower of fine scraps Of
blue silk thread, which falls upon the
paper while it is being formed. The side
on which the blue silk is deposited is used
for the back of notes, and the threads are
SO deeply imbedded as to remain perma-
nently fixed. Each sheet is registered as
soon as it is made.-Rehoboth Sunday

The scramble for post-office struck

The scramble for post-office struck
this place last Friday, when H. P.
Chase, the present assistant postmas-
ter, was out with a petition and per-
sonally solicited signers. In this, as
matter of course to all acquainted
with the petition business, he was
quite successful. AS to what he is
going to do with it we are not advis-
ed. Undoubtedly postmaster Cod
dard has been induced to resign and
that resignation and this petition is to
60 in together, but whether at once
or after the new administration comes
in, we do not know, or care. In view
of the fact, however, that Mr.. Chase,
when Harrison was nominated, hung
out Cleveland flag on one side of
his door and a Harrison banner on
the other side and that he kept DEM
ocratic literature, including the
"Grindstone turner" on a desk ac-
cessible to the public, we would sug-
gest that his documents be sent in at
once SO that he can receive his ap-
pointment from a reform and non
partisan administration. tr

Secret of n Good NIemorp

In memorizing, the unknown should
be associated with the best known, &C
cording as it may resemble it, or stand
in contrast to it, or can be associated
with it by contiguity of time or place, 80
that when we may again think of the
familiar it will recall the unfamiliar.
This is really the whole secret Of good
memory. When one clearly and firmly
makes the connection between the old
and the new in this manner, he may
rest assured that when one is thought of
1t will suggest the other. Systems of
what is called natural memory" sim
ply teach how to make these associa-
tons, or 'correlations," and insist that
they be made daily until the memory
has been thoroughly strengthened G.

Letters from the People.

Editor Sitter: l notice in your is
sue of Nov. s, an extraordinary chal-
leuge to me, in person, by Mr.. G. X.
Davis of this place. 1t seems to be
given with the same assurance of sue
cess as the 100 to rs upon Cleveland,
His ridiculous challenge will ac-
cept upon condition that he himself
will take the trouble to find the man
willing to mire himself up in such a
matter; and that, at the same time,
the following questions be also decid-
ed:
Was the post-otfice here removed
from our good old deacon as matter
of public policy, or of private, cunning
and deceitful, democratic influence?
What became of all of those split
democratic county tickets with straight
Republican headings, but with sc.
X. Davis" substituted for Sheriff !?
Why didn't they use them instead of
pilfering Republican tickets?
Did the Democrats sell off all their
votes for Representative in order to
gain support for Mr.. Davis for Sher-
itf? If not why did they not set up a
candidate of their own?
Did G. X. Davis cause to be in
serted in the Bennington County Re-
former, in an article charging his Re-
publican opponent with all manner of
crimes and Irregularities, regular
signed certificate testifying to his own
personal excellence?
Upon the evening before election,
did he and his conferree, standing in
front of the pulpit at Democratic
rally, spend fifteen minutes in vile
personal abuse of person for pre-
senting, by permission, kilograms
from certain prominent Republicans
denying their assertion that they had
offered Mr.. Davis their support?
Have the Republicans of Benning-
ton county an equal right with the
Democrats to have bosses, and which
clan of bosses bossed the best?
Is it proper for man who has been
chronic candidate himself every e.
lection for years who has never hes
itated to 60 around and boldly cleo
tioneer for himself ; who has, time
and again, taken, with his own hands,
regular Republican county tickets,
and after himself inserting his own
name upon them, offer them for sup
port is it proper for such a person to
charge another with acting in view
for office?
In regular battle and clan fight
should the whipped dog growl and
whine, or crawl back into his kennel,
lick his sores and be quiet?

why she Was . Heroine.

We were running down from Charles
ton to Savannah, and the train was hum
ming along at high speed, when the
danger signal blew and the airbrakes
were put on hard. AS the train stopped
all the passengers piled out to see what
was the trouble, and we soon discovered
that culvert around the short curve
had been washed out. A negro woman
had tagged the train with a white apron,
and of course we all looked upon her as
a heroine.
when did you discover that the cul-
vert had gomez asked.
"Jist about half an hour ago."
"And your first thought was to stop
the train!''

owe our lives to YOU

Congress convened Monday. The
Presidents message is lengthy doc
ument. In discussing the tariff ques-
ton he descends to shallow dema-
gogism and demonstrates his utter in
ability to discuss such question from
statesman-like standpoint. He
even descends to anarchical commu-
nistic arguments. The New Yory
Press well says:
"For a man elected to the office of
Chief Magistrate by the suppression
of votes and intimidation and murder
of voters in many States of the solid
South to thus arraign the business
and manufacturing interests of the
country and impeach the integrity of
those who have led far more useful
lives than he himself has, is, to say
the least, a superb exhibition of igno-
rant impudence tinctured with the
wrath of defeat.

Frank Nolan, employed upon the
Bennington Battle Monument, had a
miraculous escape from a fatal acct
dent, and undoubtedly instant death,
last Friday. He was at work at the
very top of the shaft, when suddenly,
he lost his footing and tumbled head
long down the inside of the shaft, a
distance of over 40 feet landing on his
feet, grasping a staging. He was
somewhat bruised and badly shaken
