One of the most injurious customs in
regard to eating is the practice of serving
fruit at the beginning of breakfast The
best medical testimony p~ronounces acid
of any sort hurtful If taken when the
stomach is empty. A more judicious
custom provides fruit at the close OF the
meal. Besides being eSsier digested at
that time, the fruit can be better reished.
II it is thought that the fruit loses It's
flavor In a warm room through a long
meal. it may no be placed upon the
table, but kept in a cool spot until the

The Chicago Auditorium building
Proves Very Dangerous StruC-

The CaicagO Auditorium building
Proves Very Dangerous Struc-
ture.
\ Chicago special says The big Audi
torium building, where the Republican
National Convention Will be held, has
been the scene of n great many accidents
since its construction WAS begun. Most
of them have been suppressed from pub
lie knowledge. Yesterday five men were
at work on a platform at the level Of the
second story, when the rods gave way
and they all fell into the basement. One
was fatally and the rest were seriously
hurt. This morning an iron beam on
which a workman was standing on the
fourth-floor level turned with him and
let him fall to the basement. dc Will
die.
These things have brought out the
fact that the building in its unfinished
state, is q very dangerous place. a short
time ago the workmen employed upon it
became so alarmed that they held a
meeting and determined TO abandon their
work altogether rather than risk their
lives. 70 avert strike and keep the
public from knowing the facts, the
Auditorium Company was obliged to
insure, at the companys expense the
life of every workman for 81, 900, and 10
guarantee, besides, fiat every man IN
Jured should receive two thirds pay
during his disability.

dent OF the Council, and Mr. Edward

II. Boisseau, high constable are candi-
dates for the city sergeant nomination,
and Mr.. II. e. Barksdale and Mr. A. J.
Montague are asking for the nomination
for Commonwealth attorney. All are
good men, and all have large personal
following. The primary will be held on

ton. Thus far the canvass has been
conducted in the most friendly spirit
and no personalities have been INDUCED
IN 10y the candidates.

The Wytheville Enterprise has the
following article upon our Exposition OF
next fall. The Enterprise manifests a
spirit that should animate the breast Of
every true Virginian. 1t says;
We are glad to note from our ex-
changes that Richmond has at last def
nitely determined upon having an Expo
sition there this fall under the auspices
of the State Agricultural Society. Her
citizens are becoming enthusiastic in the
matter. and, what is better still, they are
testifying their interest by such liberal
contributions that the inaugurators Of
this scheme are assured Of success.
We believe the proposition is wise
one, and will be productive of good not
only to our beautiful and attractive CAPT
tai city on the James, but to all other
sections Of the State as well, and we
hope that every county in It's limits will
be fully represented by its peoples and
products, and thus help to make it an
exhibition worthy Of State Of such va
ried and valuable resources as the "Old
Dominion possesses. Apart from the
benefits that will accrue to every section
of Virginia from such display, we con-
fess that We feel just pride in helping
TO make success OF any and everything
that Richmond undertakes. 1t is tie

of every son and daughter of the old
