RICH MOND.

RICHMOND. Feb. 23.-[Special]--The
only officer to be elected in Richmond
this spring is city treasurer, and so far
as I am advised the incumbent, Mr..
Childrey, will have no opposition. In
Henrico, however, the contest is going
to be quite interesting. The county
has been Republican by large majority
for many years, but the Democrats are
organizing for a big fight and with what
help they will get from the Farmers
Alliance theyfe feel quite hopcful-indced,
l may say1confident-of winning.
a great many people from ncar Rich
mond will go up to the farmers institute
to be held at Charlottesville next Tues
day and Wednesday. The programme
that has been arranged is quite a good
one.
a joint meeting of the City Council
will be held this week to elect four
physicians to attend the poor. These
doctors arc to be paid fifty dollars per
month for their services.

MAN MEADOWS.

MAX MEADOWS, Feb. 23.-ISpccial1-
Max Meadows is singing hallelujahs.
Organs of her own make will shortly
play tho Accomplishments. And then if
there be any unbclicvcr in the future,
he'll be called on to face the music. A
cabinet organ mandatory with consid-
cradle capital, and employing from
thirty to forty men, has been secured.
The concern IS the owner of valuable
patents and improvements on this in
strument and claims that within eigh-
teen months it will be able to supply
the trade of this entire section. There
is nothing of the kind in the south.
The citizens of this place, dissatis-
fled with Mr.. POrter's census returns,
have just had a police census taken,
which shows a present population of 1914.
Considering that a year ago the total
population was less thar so, tho por-
centage OF increase is very satisfactory,
and If it can be kept up, a few years
will make Max Meadows quite a place.
Notwithstanding the wet weather,
building operations have been going
right along.
Robert Blair and A. B. Dundas arc
building handsome residences on Vir-
gin:a emu The Chiswell Improve
ment Company arc building two on
virginia avenue, and two on Cleveland
avenue, and two stores on Third street.
d. Gratton Crockett, n residence on
Cleveland avenue, Mr.. Martin, a resi-
dence on Eighth street, and the Max
Meadows Land e Improvement com
pany, two on Sixth street.
The Chiswell improvement Company
and Mr.. j. ID. Kent are building three
stores on Third street, and Mr.. j. T..
Offner, formerly of Roanoke, a store on
Bond street. Three residences on the
Iieighths. and II new store on Third
street have been contracted for. So Won
see our little place is going straight
along. AS soon as the weather settles
a large number of buildings will be put
under contract.
