"Soms days ago there was printed in
these columns a disapproving comment
upon an address by Mrs. w. H. FELTON,,
of Gainesville, Ca, before the agricul-
tural society of that state, in which she
gave direct encouragem=n mt to the lynch

FELTON, has made reply referring to the
criticism of her addr:s SIS as a savage edi-

The Bull Pool After Their Enor-

ARE NOW OUT OF THE MART
Campaign In Wheat Was Begun Long Ago and
Corn and Oats Followed in Order
An Immense Sale.

Chicago, Aug. 24-The bull pool, which
has been successfully handling enormous
announced at the close of business today
that they were rac.cally out the mar
ket, with the exception of little Sep
tengber wheat, which they say they Will
take on delivery day The onnouncement
that the pool had keuldatsd it's holdings
caused a feeling Of great relief among
brokers generally. III had been felt for
several days that the pool had been try
ing to do too much.
When The campaign in wheat Nus be-
gun several morths ago 1T was regarded
as very difficult undertaking. The bulls
became masters OF the atuation, aidcd
by news from abroad, and wiped up cnor-
nous profits in a short time. When the
same pool went into corn to the extent
of about 100000 bushels, and oats
amounting 10 about 100000 bushels, ner-
vousnass was resumed. So long as every
thing kept moving up, however. it was
very active.
Bull difficulties began with the specu-
lator calling for wheat on Saturday at
81. Then it could have been bought
cheaper in the pit. When prices began
to drop on Monday margins increased
ami the tensity was only relieved to-
right by the announcement that practi-
cally everything had been sold out.
Though 1t was believed that Dec nfbe-
showed a loss, George French. who has
been handling the deals for the pool,
gays everything was sold at a profit. He
said that several grain merchants had
proposed yesterday to raid the market
and force him to unload
. The corn pit today was the scene OF
large dealings. One broker sold in one
hour 4.oeo.Ooo bushels for the pool.

She must be possessed of the great es-

sum, either-to cover initial expenses;
she must acquire a good, practical knowl-

CAPE CHARLES.
The Building BOom-schO OI-HOuse to
BE Erected-Electric Railway.

CAPE CHARLES, VA, November ~
Especially 1.-The building boom which
struck this place several months ago con-
tinues to increase each month, and from
present indications 1t has come TO stay.
Several new dwellings are in course Oh
erection, and plans are being made for
large school-house, to be built by st.
Charles Catholic church. Baltimore con-
tractors, as well as contractors on the
Eastern Shore of Virginia and Mary
land. are submitting plans and bidding
for this building. Three lots on TaZewell
avenue have been purchased by ST.
Charles church for this building, and 1t
is expected that this school will surpass
any both in size and equipment on the
Eastern Shore south of Wilmington, Del.
Surveys were recently made for an
electric railway to be built from this
place to Cape Charles Point, a distance
OF fourteen miles. The road will run
through the largest potato district of this
county, and will connect with the New
York, Philadelphia and Norfolk railroad
at this place, so that potatoes and other
produce can be brought here instead or
having TO be shipped by water. thus
saving the shippers long haul and about
twelve hours delay to their produce
The syndicate also propose to light this
city with electricity from their power
house, which is to be built here.

Mr.. Albert Elsea, who keeps a store at
Mt. Airy, in this county, had thrill
ing experience with two robbers a few
days ago. The men entered the store,
and, purchasing box of sardines, offered
a s. bill in payment. Mr.. Elsea took out
his wallet to make the correct change,
when suddenly one Of the men seized
both the wallet and the bill, drew
pistol, and fired it at Mr.. Elsea- Both Of
the men then ran off. On Mr.. Elseas
hastily giving the alarm the men were
followed. One of them was shot in the
head, but managed to make his escape,
and the other. after lively chase. was
caught and lodged in Jail. The wallet,
with it's contents, was recovered.

THIS IS TEMPERANCE SUNDAY.
The Day to he Observed Throughout
the Civilized World.
Richmond, Va, November q, 1887

] Richmond, Va, November q, 1897.
To the Editor of the Dispatch:
| This is Temperance-Day in every civil
ized country on the globe. Wherever
| the shadow of the Cross has fallen.
| something will be said to-day in behalf
OF the great importance OF putting down
the evil Of drinking. Among the mil
lions thus engaged to-day, the voices
| or none will be more potential earnest,
and prayerful than these of the tenn
| perance women. Women have many du-
ties in common with men, and not a
few peculiar TO themselves; but, among
them all, there is none which they owe
TO society greater than that which
should lead them to take an active, per-
sonal. and abiding interest In all moral
reforms.
The temperance reform especially,
then. should find among women its
warmest friends its firmest supporters.
For does not woman herself suffer from
the great curse of intemperance? Ask
the thousands of drunkards wives in
our land. and with a wall of anguish
they would tell you that women suffer
even II II Is only man that sins-the in
nocent thus sharing the punishment of
the guilty. For the sake of suffering
sisterhood. for the sake Of SHINING Sis
terhood, the women of our land should
awake and arise, that the claims OF the
temperance cause may be fully met by
them. Lend helping hand TO those
who would lift your brothers and sis
tiers from the mire OF intemperance.
Join temperance organizations which
are In your midst. and let the full
weight of your influence be felt on the
side Of truth and righteousness. There
is woman's proper place. and there she
should be. unless she believes that, like
the Mohammedan houri. she has no
soul. and IL is immaterial what course
she pursues. Women OF America. do
your duty In reference to the temper
ance cause. beg OF you. that your
own souls may be blessed when the Mas
ter shall say well done TO each OF His
faithful disciples.
