Committees Appointed TO Raise Funds to
Secure Agninst Loss.

Secure AGn4nst Loss.
A meeting of citizens Of Richmond was
held last night at half-past o'clock at MuF-
phys Hotel 10 take steps 10 raise guaran-
tee fund of 81, 500 to insure the Virginia
Agricultural and Mechanical Society
against loss in holding the Exposition open
three weeks next October.
To induce the society 10 hold the Expo
siton for that length of time when the
society had that subject under coRsidera-
ton Colonel John Murphy gave his per-
sonal guarantee for the above amount. and
for some time it has been felt measures
should be taken 20 relieve him OF such per-
soma responsibility by number OF citizens
who feel pride and interest 10 tho EXposi-
ton. This was the unanimous sentiment OF
the meeting last night, and the utmost con
fdence was felt that the subscription could
be raised by a prompt and vigorous canvass.
Mr. l.. ID. Crenshaw, Jr., presided at the
meeting and the following committees
we're appointed. For Main, Cary and tho
cross streets down town nessrs. Nj. B..
Ramos. Y. j. Bosher. W. l.. White. Thomas
Christian. Cabsll DAVIS and William Ryan.
For Broad and the cross streets up town.
Messrs. A. Greentree, Marx Gunst 7. c..
Ieath and James +. Ferriter.
IL will be understood that subscribers IN
case Of loss by the society would only be
bound FOR such portion OF ther respective
subscriptions as the amount lost would bear
10 the total amount subscribed. but the fee
ing is that the society viii not make a loss,
but on the contrary o handsome profit, as
ali the indications IN that direction are most
hatterng.

lie Yelled Murder.

A small white boy was employed about 8
o'clock last evening to ride horse to
Cosby's stables on Fifth near Main street.
The steed progressed up Broad street at q
very easy trot until Sixth street was reached
and then the equine Immediately sprung
into dashing gallop. As each second pass
ed. and as each ironed hoof fell on the paw
ing blocks, tho boy grew more and more
scared, and when Fifth street was reached
he was yelling murder az the top OF bis
lungs. Marshall was passed and be
was still yelling and when the stable was
finally reached no youth ever left a horse
more suddenly than he. After explanations
he was told that the best thing to DO would
be TO put his head under the hydrant and
he did so to his seeming relief He was
severely hooted by the multitude of youths
who had assem- bled.

waited in the parlor for his adored one
''Indeedp replied Dinwiddie, much

The boy placed the coin in his pocket,
and the young man asked:
What did she say about me, Johnny"
"Well, heard her say you were very
fresh and / know she likes fresh things,
because she scolded the cook awfully this
morning because her eggs at breakfast
weren't fresh"
When Miss Squildig reached the parlor
Mr.. Dinwiddie was not there.-Pittsburg

the answer. The gentleman wishes to lead
to this by his first statement. thus: 1t
percentage is rs and base 200, the rate per
