urn ,xrEnEsT ACCOUNT.

The discussion OF the constitutional con-
vention question has stimulated inquiry
into the financial affairs OF Virginia.
The statement of the Dispatch that more
than ene-third OF Virginia's revenues Is
expended for public education was news
70 many people. So, too. was the state
ment that our interest account amounted
10 more than $4,000 per annum; that we
pay sgi3.O00 year for the care OF lunstcsr
$4,000 for pensions. &c. Figured out COM
pletely. Il has been shown that the care
support OF government costs us ABOUT
$4,000 per annum, and that about one
half Of this sum is required to pay cr1in'-
nal charges. However. as an onset 10
some part of the latter item. We must TO
member that the hiring out Of convicts
In the penitentiary gives US a proh Oh
about $40 900 per annum. All THESE innings
we wish our people to know. "hether
they make for or against cohSttutioh"i
convention is immaterlal 10 MS. we de-
sire our people to know how the money
goes" And Just here 1t is proper to say
that of the s. 10000 per annum expended
by the State itself for public education
about se5OOOe goes to the public schools
and nearly 100000 to universities. inst-
tutes. colleges. seminaries. 60, In an
nuities and excess of interest paid on
bonds held by them. AS to our public
debt and the interest thereon, we have
received many inquiries. including the
following:
TO the Editor of the Dispatch:
Much difference OF opinion exists IN
these parts concerning the exact amount
Of Virginia's debt, and the rate per cent
the State is now paying. You VIII con,
fer favor on many subscribers and shed
light in dark places by answering ID the
Dispatch the following questions:
t. What Is the exact amount OF the
State debt?
o What per cent. Is the State now pay
ing on her debt?
3. What per cent will the State have to
paw in the future. and when will the in
creased rates of interest Begin

reform. We look upon all promises in
respect OF this matter made OF IT'S
own volition by the McKinley-Hanna-
Tariff-National- Bank Combination as so
many sops to Cerberus. Yet, the IN
PRODUCTION into Congress, at the request
of leading financiers and businessmen,
Of new bills looking 10 currency reform
IS q hopeful sign. It Is evidence that
there stu exists a strong undercurrent OF
agitation for financial change, and that
outside of certain interests, hnanclers
and businessmen recognize fully the
fact that we can never have return OF
prosperity until a change has been con-
summatea. The hope is that this re-
cognition will encourage the masses 10
stand Loyalty and steadfastly to the re-
form movement, to the end that In com
bination with the men in Congress the
business organizations and the bankers
who are sincere in working for reform
no rest be given the body until the

Pall Mall Gazette)
The years on the turn,
The night is toward morn,
Winters behind.
There's a sword blade Of green
The black earth clOds between
And a kiss on the wind.
The days have grown longer,
The sun has grown stronger,
Robin alone
Shall have sweet company
In the bush and the tree
Ere a great while be flown.
Soon, soon the tall arches
OF beeches and larches
Grow misty and gray,
For the leaves that are coming
The spring that is homlns
The winters away.
The grass shall smell sweet
For the treading Of feet;
The crOcus shall start;
The daffOdil glancing,
And I'm the wind dancing.
Shall life up the heart.
The years on the turn,
The night is toward morn,
Dawn I'm her eyes,
And our joys coming home,
Ger the sands and the foam,
With a tender surprise.

Shortly after 12 o'clock on Saturday night
Officer Kester was attracted to West Straw
berry alley near Gilbert street by the cries of
woman He hastened to the scene and
found Anthony Yetomowicz beating his wife
with broom handle. The woman admitted
that her life was in danger and requested the
officer to place her husband in the lookup.
The scene enacted in the house was a pitiable
one. In the room where the fracas took
place stood bed and cradle, containing
three children, the youngest being about six
months old, crying with outstretched arms
for its mother After the husband had been
locked up, Officer Kester returned to the
house and the following story was related by
a son, Joseph, who stated that his mother had
left the house shortly after supper locking
the three children in an clubhouse. The hus
band who was absent returned about ter
o'clock and put the little ones to bed, and al
the same time retired himself. At midnight
the irate wife made her appearance IN an in
toxicated condition and aroused the entire
neighhorhood by breaking in the door, which
wound up by the husband beating her. Yet
omowicz was held in $500 bail
