HE PLEADS FOR PROHIBITION.
Colonel Cheves in Lecture at Old Mar
ket Defines His Position.

Colonel Cheyes, Of Kentucky, q representative
Of the National Prohibition Bureau, delivered an
address or lecture at Old-Msrket Hall last night
before an audience OF 100 or moro persons. lie
was introduced by Mr.. @. NJ. Smithdeal and
opened with references to his successful work in
recent weeks in different sections OF Virginia.
lie said he was a native Of Georgia and fought
four years In the Confederate army.
Before proceeding to the discussion of nus
theme Colonel Cheves stated that in recent
letter to the DISPATCH from Onancock he had
been accused Of denouncing the Democratic and
Republican parties and all Christians who did
not favor prohibition. He said he had been mis-
quoted as he did not denounce the two factions,
but merely exposed them. One OF the planks OF
the national platforms OF both the Republicans
and Democrats was opposition 10 temperance
and the legalization OF the liquor trade; there-
fore when member Of either party voted with
his side he voted against prohibition. Many
church members, whose religious doctrines ln-
structed them to fight liquor, did nothing 10
overcome the evil. IL was to this inconsistency
that he referred in alludng to Christians.
The speaker denied the charge that be favored
social eduality between the whites and negroes,
and added that he did not think the colored man
wanted il. lie had seen the day when ne hated
and had never favored or advocated social
enualty His expressions on this point were
very positive and emphatic.
The Colonel said that the platform OF the Pro-
hibiion party was me aDsoiurS p,osSSn shonS h y,
national laws forbidding the importation OF
ardent spirits. But little could be accomplished
by local option, as this would not entirely
eradicate the evil.
Just before concluding he said that conyen-
tion will be held In Lynchburg in June, and on
this occasion the Prohibtionists Will formally
organize and esta blish a platform for Virginia.
The lecturer, who seems 10 DC great en-
tbusiast In his work, made a forcibe plea for
the cause which he represents, and In closing
he requested his auditors to join the new party
now being organized.

The Attorneys Wish to Play Match-Game
of Ball with the Physicians.


Another great baseball event is on the tapis,
and the contest, which will take place the latter
part Of this month, viii attract equally as much
attention as did the famous fight between the
Westmorelands and the Commonwealths. "A
large and powerful fraternity, known TO the pub
iic a. LAWYERS, have organized themselves into
club and thrown the gauntlet to the doctors ~
The pulse-feelers" have not yet accepted tho
challenge, but they will certainly do 80 In case
they can make up team.
Tho proceeds OF the game win be donated to
the Stuart.monument fund.
The following are the legal base-ballists: t:
Judge Z. L. Minor, manager; Conway X. sands
catcher; Brooke Page, pitcher; XIX Mitchell,
snort-stop w. X. Matthew's, first base; Allen

IL the physicians are 80 intimidated by the
formidable array of attorneys that they decline
meeting them the lawyers will straIghtway chai-
ienge the Commonwealth Club team. There
are several excellent players ON the nine above
mentioned, and they can manipulate the sphere
with surprising degree Of skill
