nreach of Trust vs.. steaIins

The examination of the case against
John W. Atkins, charged with felOniOusly
appr0priating 10 his own use $i1229,
money belonging 10 the Pamunky tribe,
order of Red Men, took place in the
Police Court Yesterday.
4 number of members and officers OF
the lodge testified. From their testimony
nothing particularly was learned beyond
what has already been published. Atkins
was i'm 1887, and, in fact, nearly ever
since the organization of the tribe, a
member of the board of trustees, which
!, composed of three members The fact
that Dee used the money held by him as
chairman of the b)lri in trust for his
own Use I'm his business was admitted.
The lodge, through committee, cndeay-
orcd tO yet him ID give his noe, running
over two yeats with = per cent. interest
for This shortage, which be refused To
give He was sent on to the grand jury
and gave bail
The defense is that the appropriation
to his own use of the funds cOniided TO
him was nothing but breach of trust
and also that the funds were paid him by
a check signed by himself and second
trustee, two being required to sign a
check. The third trustee knew nothing
about the matter

ELECTRICITY.
Interesting Lecture from Lieutenant
Green.

The hall OF the Young Mems Christian
Association rooms was filed last night
with one OF ,he finest audiences
ever assembled in Richmond 10
listen 10 the lecture on Electricity
delivered by Lieutenant 5 d. Green, L.
). n, who il At present detailed for
electric work with the Electric Railway
OF this city.
The lecture was given under the aus
pices OF the Mechanics institute, and
the lecturer was introduced by Mr. Harry
Owen, chairman Of the lecture committee
OF that institution He was listened TO
with interested attention throughout
and showed himself To be n thorough
master of the subject Of which he WIS
treating He first discussed the
uses of electricity AMI showed the
remarkable strides which bad been
made in its development in the last few
years. Then, after dwelling at some
length upon the theoretical part Of his
subject, he made a number OF expert
ments on the stage 10 Illustrate its prac-
iical workings as motor illuminaior,
aud heater. With little engine he
started a dynamo 10 work, and with the
electricity thus generated lighted several
incandescents on the stage, and applied
the wonderful force, "of which nobody
knows anything" 10 the heater recently
patented by our fellow-citizeu, DR.. Leigh
Burton
The lecture was about an hour and a
half in length, and being on 20 expansive
a subject, was necessarily more or le-s OF
mere epitOme of what the lecture dee
served. Il was, however, one Of tbc most
interesting Of the series, and reflected
great credit upon Mr. Green and also

EXAMINATION OF PREMISES.
I'm addition 10 the above the police Of
the city have for the past two weeks
been making q careful examination OF all
the premises in the city 10 see that the
wards, closets, and outhOuses are clean.
In large number of instances this has
not been found to be the case, and the
officers have reported them Ten DAYS is
given each person to remedy the fault,
and if not then attended 20 the parties
will bee arranged in court and the
penalties of law enforced.
Richmond has always been noted for
Icing clean and healthy, but the only
way io maintain its healthy condition is
for every person TO watch ont for his own
premises, and not let the heat of summer
produce anything in the nature Of sick
ness from carelessnoss.

A CURIOUS STRIKE.

A New Jersey thread mandatory
has curious strike on its hands. 1t
seems that the superintendent, recent
importation from Scotland, had been ac-
cuStomed to seeing the factory girls
in his native land rather scantilv clad.
When, then, the spectacle was presented
him of several hundred feminine Amer
lean operatives neatly and becomingly
clad, his inartiStic SenSibilitieS were Of
Tended.
To the universal hustle and bangs,
dearest possessions of the average girl,
he took especial umbrage, and issued an
edict that their wearing must cease.
The natural result followed. Their
wages might be reduced and they would
say nothing, but when the inalienable
right Of every American girl to wear
bangs and hustle was interfered with
by foreign dictator, the spirit of ma
tive independence asserted itself, and
with one voice the 200 girls declared
they would leave first.
The obnoxious order was not rescinded
and accordingly the operatives struck in
body. The proprietorS consider them
selves in duty bound to uphold their
superintendent, and accordingly the
deadlock continues. But we fancy that
victory cannot be long in perching upon
the bustleS of the strikers. Every
woman in the land will doubtless SYM
pathize with the cause of the indignant
operatives, for there is hardly woman
III the land who would not fight hard be-
fore giving up her bang and hustle SO
long as fashion fayors them.
Then, inaSmuch as the thread manu-
facturers appeal exclusively to a
feminine constituency for the sale of
their product, they will have disagree
able situation to face if the sympathiz-
ing women of the country declare a
boycott against that particular thread.
They will have to give in sooner OF
later, and they would better make it
sooner. For, after all, isn't it woman's
bounden duty to attire herself as be-
comingly as possible under all ciIcum-

NOT TO BE CREMATED.
The Dead Anarchists Bodies Will
Not Be Burned.

CHICAGO, Jan. 15.-The proposition
to cremate the bodies of the dead anar-
chists was practically shelved at meet
ing Of the defense committee to-day.
DR.. Ernst Schmidt reported to the meet
ing that the cemetery directors would
not insist on inserting in the deed the
restrictions against demonstrations and
unapprOved monument inscription I'M
less the anarchists friends insisted
upon having that document rewritten in
order that the names Of certain extreme
radicals be appended as trustees. The
meeting, acting on Dr.Schmidt'S advice,
decided to let the old Semi-cOn-
sentative trustees remain for the
present. Some OF the committeeman.
however, warned the meeting that there
would be trouble on Nov. IL next, when
the gates of the cemetery would be
closed before the thrOngS of pilgrims.
Much of the committees time was taken
up with the puZzling question as to
whether Elsa Friedel, ''Lingg'S girl" is
to be taken care of by the committee
and be given share of the funds.
Lingg's intended mOther-in-law was
present at the meeting and eagerly
watched the proceedings. No cOnclu-
sion was reached. The compromise be-
tween the two factions that have been
fighting for the control of the defense
fund was ratified by the election of an
entire new set of officers, headed by
Matthew Schmiedinger as president.
