NET AT JONES' STORE
HENRlco DEMOCRATS TURN OUT IN
SPITE OF THE RAIN.
Plenty OF MusIc-speec hes by Messrs
William II. Sands, Simon Solomon,
and Charles w. Chiidrey.

The power of music was never more
satisfactorily proven than at the Demo-
cratic meeting at Jones's Store, Heprico,
last night.
When the East Richmond Band entered
the rooms Of Brookland Democratic Club,
No 1, at $50 O'Clock there was not q single
person present. This was due to the fact
that heavy rain, which had not entirely
ceased, had comeu about an hour before.
The band went out on the portico and
began 70 get in its work. When the music
began the small boys gathered first. Then
the voters began TO congregate. At first
they struggled up singly, then in pairs,
and at last In small groups so that by the
time the meeting opened quite goodly
crowd was on hand.
The speaking was held from the portico
Of the club-room.
In the absence Of the President, Mr.. ).
b. CHM, Mr.. Simon Solomon, candidate
for Sheriff, called the meeting to order.
Mr.. ". II. SANDS.
As the first speaker. Mr.. Solomon, intro
duced MIR. w. II. Sands. who began by
saving that the issue was simply whether
the white or colored people should rule
Henrico. All the white people were tired
of seeing the negroes holding the positions
of constable', magistrates, and commis-
sioners Of the revenue.
Anderson and Southwark Mr.. Sands
said, were trying to use the black men for
their own selfish ends.
Closing, Mr.. Sands briefly endorsed all
the candidates and warned those present
to make no compromise with tho devil, but
TO vote the entire Democratic ticket next
Thursday.
THE NEXT SHERIFF.
When Mr.. Sands had concluded Mr.. Jack
Lindsay, Jr., presented Mr. Simon Solo
mon as the next sheriff, with the remark
that he was worthy of every vote in the
county.
The Democrats of Henrico, insisted Mr..
Solomon, have a clear working majority,
and all that is necessary is for them to turn
out and vote.
The Republicans know they are beaten
and are trying 10 save Anderson and South
ward. but it cannot be done.
Last Friday night, the speaker SAID,
Southwark advised the negroes TO go to
the polls with bayonets and pistols.
THIS was very pretty talk. but the white
people of Henrico did not propose to be
bulldozed. They can go to the polls Thurs
day with the knowledge that they will be
allowed to vote peaceably.
MR.. c. W. CHILDREY.
This gentlemen, who is the nominee for
commissioner Of the revenue from the
Upper district, was next introduced.
Mr.. Childrey told the story of the old
fellow whose son said he would cut pret-
ty figure walking tho golden streets with
a blind halter around his neck. This re-
minded him of his own position in being
called, as he was. the dude on the ticket" !"
The band played several airs after the
speaking closed, refreshments were served,
and the meeting was at an end.
The closing rally of the campaign will be
held at Shoemaker's precinct, corner Cary
and Meadow streets, tomorrow night.

ALL THE WOUNDED MEN IMPROVING.
Mr.. Poweil's Condition Very Hopeful and
the Others Are Doing Well.

The condition Of Mr.. J. II. Powell. who
had his left leg so badly injured in the
collision on Main street Friday night that
amputation was necessary, was very hope
ful yesterday. He is indeed much I'M
proved.
DR.. Hugh Taylor said last night that
while il would be probably ten days before
his patient would be entirely out of dan
ger, he was dong very well indeed and i'm
favorable.
HR STANDS IT WILL.
Mr.. Powell IL perfectly conscious and
suffers very little pain considering the ma
ture of his wound. DR.. Taylor says that
he is man of wonderful courage and fortl-
tude, and considering his mature age.
stands the wound very well. lie received
no internal injury whatever.
Great interest has been manifested in
Mr.. Powells case, and scores of calls are
made at his house every day by persons
with whom he Is acquainted. His mis-
fortune has caused the most profound
sympathy throughout the city.
IHE OTHERS DOING WE'LL.
Captain w. T. Gathright, of the Hook
and-Ladder Truck, who, after Mr.. Powell,
received the next most serious injuries in
the collision, is also getting along very
well. He is still confined TO his bed. and
not allowed to see visitors. but 1t is ex-
pected that he will be out in short
while.
DR.. Moses d. Hoge, Jr.. said last night
that Mr.. James II. GIBBS, one of the fire.
men who had his finger broken, was inn
proving very fast. There will be no neces-
sity to amputate the injured member, as
was at first supposed. Mr.. Gibbs still
suffers slightly from bruises received by
his fall
Mr.. Lewis Williams, the motor-man Of
the electric car which collided with the
truck, is now out of danger. He was able
TO 60 out for short while Yesterday, and
1t is expected that he can return to work
in few days. He received no internal in-
juries. as was feared Saturday night.
