The press OF the cities visited by the
Adam Forepaugh shows seem to vie with
one another in praising them. Indeed
their expressions Of commentator might
appear extravagant were IL not for the
fact that the conservative character of
some Of the papers is too well known to
believe that they would bestow their
praises upon any object unworthy Of
them This compels the belief that the
exhibition will be far the largest and best
ever seen in this city. They will be here

cry of distress. This institution that
means so much for the welfare OF Rich
mond is in dire need and must have
funds or its doors may be permanently
closed. Established I'm this city in 1854,
and with record untarnished, but cover
ed with glory for work we'll done. the
Christian Association has to-day recorded
a financial crisis in its history.
The following call for a meeting OF
citizens to consider the matter has been
issued:
Richmond. Va. April II. 1885,
To every good citizen OF Richmond. ir-
respective of creed. who is interested
In the welfare OF her young men. we
address this letter I'm behalf of the
Young Mems Christian Association Of
Richmond.
This association was founded I'm 1854
and is among the oldest I'm America. But
we realize that a crisis In its history
has been reached. and unless the people
OF Richmond will give II support the
directory will be compelled TO close it's
doors. The directory, however. feel that
they have no right to do this without
calling the people together and asking
them II they wish IL done or are willing
to see II done.
The burden upon the association is its
original debt. About nine years ago, when
Mr.. Moody was first In Richmond. a
number of our most prominent and public
spirited citizens, greatly aided by him
and his strong endorsement OF the work.
raised about $4,000. and the present
handsome building was erected and fur
nished at a cost Of about $4,000.
Upon this balance OF $1,000 original debt
we have paid about 5000 interest since
il was created, and have reduced this
debt upon the building to $1,000; but
TO do this we have run up floating
Indebtedness Of about 5000. making a
total indebtedness now of $1,000 or over;
il will be seen that had the association
started I'm it's new building out OF debt
IL would, with the same income and
expenditure, now have 5000 I'm its treas
ury instead OF an $4,000 debt.
We now ask the people of Richmond, at
the close Of Mr.. Moody's second visit. to
complete the great enterprise which they
began during his first visit here. and
wipe out. or provide for this debt and put
the association squarely upon its feet.
We do not propose to ask the cash for
this entire amount, but we ask that the
debt be provided for by pledges OF easy
payments. say within the next three
years.
We respectfully invite you TO attend a
meeting OF citizens TO be held in the
Chamber Of Commerce assembiy-room on
Thursday next, the 10Th instant, at .
o'clock +. NJ. to discuss ways and means
to provide for the continuance OF the
association.
We invite you as citizens interested
in the development OF the principles OF
good citizenship in tho young men OF
Richmond, and If you will come to the
meeting we believe that we can present
facts that will convince you tnat the
association is successfully doing good
work, and closing its doors would be
serious loss to this community. Please
come to the meeting,
Yours respectfully,

One of the most interesting collec-
tions in the museum. not displayed

corded ON the Office books, is the
fund of hard cash, collected from
several sources. Some of it is found
in letters which cannot be returned
to the sender nor forwarded to those
for whom they were intended; more
comes loose to the Office in packages
of few cents at time. This loose
money, rs it is called, was originally
secured in letters and packages, but
has been shaken out by the violent
handling received while being trans
ferred from the ail.bag crane Mt
way stations to rapidly-moving
trains. Thus it is common expert
ence for the mail laddies hustling
about in our speeding postal cars to
thrust their hands into the canvass

No other division of the Postal

more frequently inspected by those
who visit Washington. Aud yet,
for all this, but little is known of
