HENRICO COUNTY Politics.
VIII Not Adopt Primary Unless Funds
Are Forthcoming.

There is considerable talk Of further
trouble about a primary in Henrico.
Chairman Mitchell, Of the County Com
mittee. in a conference with Chairman
Patteson several weeks ago expressed
the opinion that primary would give the
greatest satisfaction in Henrico and at
the meeting OF the City Committee where
the various plans were being discussed,
expressed the same belief and said that
his committee would endorse any action
taken by the City Committee.
The City Committee has adopted the
primary plan and because Chairman
Patteson, Of the City Committee, guaran-
teed the money for the city primary
some Of the countymen are claiming
the same favor from his hands and
threaten to hold a convention instead of a
primary unless II is extended TO them.
These sentiments meet with more criti-
cism than sympathy and as one member
OF the City Committee expressed II, lit

the Asanciafinn RuIldlnn.

The educational classes Of the Young

next Monday evening. These classes are
answering a good purpose in this city.
The young men Of Richmond are especial
ly urged TO attend the class in book-keep-
ing, which will again be in charge Of
Mr.. G. II. UrneT, a gentleman who has
had much experience as a practical book
keeper and also as an instructor Of book
keeping at the Association. The success
of some OF the pupils who have received
instruction in these classes warrants the
belief that young men have an opportu-
nifty which awaits them at the Young
practical information. which may prove
of much value TO them in the future.
The youth who can do some one thing
well is better prepared for the battle Of
life than Is he who knows little about
a great many things. Hence it is the part
OF wisdom for the boys of this city to
avail themselves of the present opportu-
nifty which awaits them at the Young
Mems Christian Association.

The entertainment committee Of the
Young Mems Christian Association held
a meeting last evening 10 map out a
programme for the coming winter. The
following members were present: Wilson
Williams chairman, w. l.. Henning
Secretary, j. o. Sales. Jr., L. Gennet

attractions as the Lotus Glee Club, Lee

Brothers. English hand bell ringers

The idea OF the company Is to give en-
tertalnments second TO none, and the
members OF the Association who are
fortunate enough TO secure tickets Will
be largely compensated for the small
additional outlay OF money which is re-
Quired.
Only limited number OF tickets Will
be sold, inasmuch as the members OF the
committee are disposed TO look after the
comfort and convenience OF the members
by not overcrowdng the hall at any
time. The course will commence about
the middle OF October. Two concerts
will be given. II possible. each month.

EMBARRASSING DELAYS.
NO PROTECTION TO AMERICAN IN
TEREsTs At RIO YET.
The Government Experiences Much Dim
Guilty In Getting Our Warships There.
Latest From the Seat of War.

WASHINGTON. ID. c., Sept. ia
series Of embarrassing and provoking in
cidents is preventing the United States
from furnishing speedy protection 10 the
extensive American interests in Brazil
endangered by the revolutionary outbreak.
The cruiser Charleston is DELAYED in
sailing from MontevIdeo for Rio by an
accident to her steering gear: the cruiser
Detroit fas been stopped In her voyage
TO Brazilian waters on account of the
discovery that II was necessary for her
to comply with certain conditions prelim-
mary to her final acceptance by the gov
eminent. and the cruiser Newark cannot
leave Norfolk for Rio until Sunday or
Monday. These delays under existing cir
cumstances are decidedly embarrassing.
The Charleston arrived az Montevideo
yesterday and her commander found or
ders there directing him Ito proceed with
dispatch" to Rio. This morning dis
patch was received at the Navy Depart
ment from the commander Captain II. f.
Picking, stating that the Charlestons
steering gear lad broken down and that
II would be necessary to coal before leav-
Ing for Brazilian waters. Owing to the
fact that coaling at Montevideo, which
must be done by means Of lighters, is at
tended with great difficulty and is seldom
accomplished In less than two days the
department takes the hopeful view that
the steering gear can be repaired while
coaling is in progress and therefore the
cruiser will not be delayed longer than
was expected.
AS for the Detroit, the delay In her
departure Is due to the overlooking Of a
regulation which provides that before a
vessel shall be finally accepted from her
builders and 10 per cent. reservation Of
the contract price paid them, she shall
have forty-eight hours sea run to de-
termne her condition. This sea trial
must take place within four months
after the vessel has been placed In the
hands Of the government. The Detroit
was transferred by the contractors to
the Navy Department on July IS and II
is believed that she could not return
from Brazil within the limit of time
required. When the Navy Department re-
called this fact yesterday a dispatch was
hastily sent to Fort Monroe directing the
commander of the Detroit to delay his
departure until further orders could be
sent him The vessel had gone, however.
but was signalled at Cape Henry and Is
now in Hampton Roads awaiting instruc-
lions for the trial and the appearance OF
a trial board. The board and the instruc-
tons will probably reach Fort Monroe to-
morrow morning and therefore the De-
troit can hardly sail for Rio until late
Monday afternoon or Tuesday morning.
1t is likely that the Newark and the De-
troit Will sail from Hampton Roads in
company. The Charleston will probably
reach Rio In five days or a week.

A THRILLING PLAY.
"Uncle Hiram" Was Presented For "Ons

"IJncIe Hiram" was presented at the
Mozart Academy last night and the gall
lery gods. who completely inundated the
dress circle. were in clover from the
time the dark eyed william appeared until
he silently died In the last act from a
fatal shot Of parlor rife. The play
is described on the programme as a pic
ture OF American life In Tour acts" but
such a meague description hardly gives
an idea OF the thrilling events that are
continually transpiring. and which make
little nervous chills chase each other up
and down ones spinal column. In he
very first act these little nervous chills
begin their handicap. for after q lot Of
family history that has no bearing what
ever on the play and less on the man who
tells it. for he is murdered before the
end Of the scene, the audience is treat
ed to a solo by dear little pig that would
be a prize winner at a squeaiing contest.
After the pig, the soubrette enters with
a blonde wig and an Empire gown, and
she also sings a solo. The girl sang better
than the pig, but she has mad more prac-
tlce; and then, too, the pigs young yet.

DEUTSCHER DAY OVER.
ALL PARTICTPAN1S ARE WE'LL
PLEASED WITH THE RESULT.
The Success of the Festival IL Assured For
Years to Come-Little Incidents of
Last Thursdays Celebration.

The German-American citizens Of Rich
mond are greatly pleased with the result
OF German day, which was a great sue
cess and more so. in a measure. than
in former years. AZ the first celebration.
three years ago, the Germal-AnieriCan
Association expci ded abo 1t 5000 In elab-
crate preparations md in the following
year about $500 This year. however
no money was spent, except for the most
necessary expenses. While no returns
from the sale OF tickets have yet been
made It Is to be hoped that handsome
amount for the benefit Of the organiza-
ton has been realized.
Speaking of the German American As
ISOLATION and its various objects. which
are lot generally known in this city IT
Is greatly TO be regretted that on account
OF the oppressive heat in Music Hall,
and for several other reasons, Mr.. H.
T. Miller, the orator Of the day, had 10
curtail his address. For he had intended
TO make some very interesting statements
as to the workings of the association,
which information, by the way, he is
ready 10 give at any time and to any one
who should seek It.
A good many people expressed their
regrets that Colonel VIM. f. Wickham.
who is In charge Of the arrangements for
could not make IL convenient to show
himself among the Teutours. He has a
great many personal friends among the
German-Americans, who would have been
very glad to welcome him at the cell
ebration Of German day.
As had been announced beforehand,
the rule was rigidly enforced by which
tickets were only sold TO those who
could prove that they were German
Americans. In that manner a good many
citizens, who have always been great
friends of the German element, had TO
be kept away from the Exposition
grounds. It is more than probable. how
ever that no such distinction win be
made and that tickets will be sold TO
Americans rs well as to German-Amer-
leans.
Quite number OF the celebrating Ger
mans were sagreeably surprised when
they noticed President Dickerson Of the
Board OF Aldermen. making merry and
eating sauerkraut and frankfurters. il
was a surprising fact indeed to see how
the few Arsericans who were fortunate
eneugh to be admitted, took in the sit
uation at a glance and acquainted them
selves with the favorite German dish.
The attentive observer could have no
tlced one thing, that there are several
members of the police force who are not
afraid for aS moment 10 show their Ger
man-Ameriman nationality or proclivity,
while others are always ready TO show
that they have some appreciation Tor
gsluine Characterization sentiments.

The New Bricks yot "A Success.

made by the Powhatan Brick Company.

ready laid many Of them In the walls,
and was forced to take them down, not
Notwithstanding expert brick makers had
pronounced them to be OF excellent color.
After a delay Of three weeks or more,
new supply Of buff bricks was received
from concern in New Jersey, and since
then nearly a story Of the building has
been faced with these bricks. They have,
however. given but little satisfaction, for
they have already commenced TO turn
