THE CHILLI STAND.

The editor of the Express comes out
as the champion of the plaza nuisance
known as the "chili stands" He ar
CUES that it would rob our squares of
"distinctive feature destroy curl
Gus attraction for visiting strangers
and deprive a large class of our poor
people of d place where tOOthsOme
viands can be purchased" &c. OF
course the editor of the Express must
be acquainted with these chilli stands
or he would not write about them.
Now the fact is the chill stands have
have developed into a nuisance,-a
unlicensed nuisance; it's a modern
innovation, not an ancient institution
as the editor of the Express would
have the public believe; it is an
outdoor restaurant of the rud-
est, and most unsightly character.
No wonder that the stranger
takes it in as a curiosity; old rickety
tables, hard benches and smoking
fires about which gather tue hoOdlum
element of the city. These stands are
an all-night institution and poor peo-
pie" can be in better business than
loafing about these stands which be-
come the center of profanity and ri
baldry. Besides these same tooth
some viands" can be obtained inside
of well-regulated, licensed, taxedMex-
lean restaurants.
These chile stands are mostly car
ried on by floating population from
Mexico, who have a movable kitch--
en- that they cart to the squares and
open business with. Our city does
not want any more chill
stand" reputation. The chill
stands and the "bat cave" should
60 together. Our city government
should protect all our licensed and
taxed restaurants and the public
squares and streets that belong to all
the people should not be occupied by
any business to the exclusion of other
occupations.

THE MAN ABOUT TOWN.
ON ADVERTISING.

ON ADVERTISING.
Riding Ger the hills one summers day,
saw some ' oung Aztecs out st play;
| In little ranch they had improvised
And playhouse shsnty, well advertised
With an old tin sign in letters bold
Of tobacco ne'er we knew of old.
Alas, for memory and for fame,
Forgotten would be many a name,
But for the signs we daily see
Painted on fences or tackled on trees.
Advertising of all descriptions is
valuable but the observing person
must be struck with the absurdity OF
many forms of advertising gotten up
TO catch the unwary advertiser; the
most palpable are the business cards
that appear as borders for cards,
maps, etc.; look over one of these
cards that have been decorating your
desk or wall for six months and you
Will be astonished at the number of
defunct firms and business directions ::
this form of advertising lacks fresh
ness and the business man who
entrusts his card to such a
device should take out lite
insurance or he will find himself
doing busir ess in another world or
under another street number.

Signs outlast firms and the traveller
Oh the outskirts is confronted with
the names of people doing business
in the city who have long since gone
to that home from which no traveller
returns. After all, the daily and
weekly newspaper, or the extra edi-
tor OF the regular newspaper is the
only safe consistent medium to reach
the public, and if half the money
thrown away upon fancy designs,
side show adver Using schemes, were
put INTO the newspapers the adyer-
tiser would reap more satisfactory
results.

Debt settlement.
NEW YORK, June Special. The
directors Of the Atlantic and Charlotte
Airline Railway Company, received
Off cial notice today from the Richmond
and Danyile Railroad Company, that the
earnings of the A. and c. Railway having
exceeded fifteen hundred thousand dollars
for thu year ending March 3lst, the devidend
payable ON the stock OF that company IN
September and March next would be at the
rafe of six per cent per annum. When the
earnings reach twenty-five hundred thou-
sand dollars per annum the annual diNi-
dends will by agreement be seven per cent.
Mr. Hugh X. Garden, of the Virginia
bondbolders' committee, said to-day in reply
% a question as 10 the probable basis OF tho
ultimate adjustment: "NO plan has yets
been formulated stating the figures on which
a settlement should be reached, for the rea-
sou that the committee desires TO have the
conservative opinion and advice OF those
who have studied the.question from the IT.
giaia standpoint, the creditors standpoint,
and the dlsinterested standpoint before we
formulate any scheme for submission 10 tue
advisory board. We hope that when our
Dian is finally submitted TO the
State, the Virginia people VIII ieel
that il represents consensus OF Opinions
based on the Ol-nest cOnsluefatloDso VI soun"
finance and public policy, and that thus tue
state will have to accept the plan. be-
lievc that Virginia will gladly accept 1t,
and that the LEGISLATORS will say, when our
plan is submitted, why we might have
done this twenty years ago. y There Is an
excellent prospect" continued Mr.. Garden.
"that the creditors will join in this plan OF
adjustment with practical unanmity. Inc
bondholders' committee announced their
proposal at the first OF last week, ana
although the creditors were not asked to de-
post their bonds before July, large amounts
Of the Virginia obligations have already
been deposited both at London and 1T each
of the American depositaries. We anii'i.
pate no opposition whatever 10 the proposed
plan Of Adjustment"
Mr.. COe, OF the Advisory Board, said;
This movement for the settlement OF the
Virginia debt is an effort to bring public
opinion 10 bear upon the state in such a
way as TO induce the Legislature 10 accept
an equitable plan devised by men OF known
ability and fairness after they shall nave
considered all the conflicting interests, Doth
in London and i'm New York. The belief Is
general that the committee will succeed iii
formulating plan which will be accepted
alike by tho state and hondholders, thus Ter
minating the long and costly struggle De-
tween fhp Darticsv
