An Important Change.

Buckley & Goodrich have been
fortunate in securing the lease of the
block in which the Fuller drug store is
located. The owners of the block are
fortunate in having this enterprising
dry goods firm undertake to change
over and occupy this block for a term
of years. Buckley & Goodrich propose
to metamorphose the entire block on
the inside so it will be one of the most
up to date dry goods stores in the
State. 1t is impossible at this time to
enter into the details of this improve
ment, but as the work progresses the
public will undoubtedly realize that
this firm are ambitious in all their
plans, and will not be satisfied with
anything common or inconvenient.
The second floor will be transformed
into beautiful room for the display
of garments of all kinds. The under
taking will require time, and it is
doubtful if it can be ready for occu-
pancy before the New Year.

POETRY. ~ LAW.

An Indiana attorney, who represents n
defendant in a civil case. recently served
notice on the Court that he would present
his argument i'm poetry The lawyers on
the other side. not being prepared TO
maintain their side of the forensic alter
cation in the same metrcal and rythmi-
cal strain. protested. and the Judge up
held them. Indeed. the wearer Of the
judicial ermine asserted most positively
that he would not admit poetical argu-
ments. This stand taken by the Court led
TO a lively discussion over counsel's right
10 employ poetry in law proceedings. and
il was found that there were no prece-
dents or statutes which could be relied
on to muZzle the legal rhymester. So the
poetical attorney was obdurate. but the
Judge willing to do almost anything
rather than submit to the ordeal. con-
tinued the case until January %. The
counsel for the defence insists that he is
going 10 argue his case in rhyme, and
there seems to De no way to check him.
Although the average person would
naturally infer that Law is the last thing
on earth to inspire poetry, there have
been numberless cases where both the
attorneys and the judiciary have burst
into occasional fights Of song. But they
could not long sustain their parts, and
were soon compelled with bruised wings
to futtar back to Mother Earth. Quite
recently we saw some very amusing
verses which were prepared by eX-Judge
Bolen. Of Hillsvile, Va. He opened with
a rhythmical bill asking for divorce for
his client and ended with decree which
POLITICALLY and humanely allowed the
young couple to so their separate ways.
Indeed, the whole effort at versiGcation,
besides containing good law and whole
some poetry contained quite little ro-
nance.
If the Indiana attorney gains HIS point,
we should like to see the Virginian pitted
against him.

from the moment the remedy was ap-
Piled This was the more surprising to
him. because he had carefully analysed
the preparation and no trace Of opium
cocaine, or similar poison could be de-
tected.
Physicians look with great favor pom
the Pyramid Pile Cure, because il is

forms OF piles. bat never fails TO give i'm
mediate relief on the first application. no
matter how severe the pain or discomfort
may be.
People who have suffered from piles for
years are often astOnished al the instant

HAVE PUT ON THE yESTIBULEs.
The MotOrmen of the Traction Com
pnpy Protected from the Weather.

The cars Of the Richmond Traction
Company were running yesterday for the
first time with vestibules attached.
The law does not require cars to be
equipped with the vestibues before De
cember 1st but within the past few
months the management Of the Traction
Company has had a man in Philadelphia
examining into the merits of Yestibules.
and has become strongly favorable 70
their use. The vestibules were ready, 50
they were put ON. They are modelled
after those used by the, Philadelphia
Traction Company on upwards of 1900
cars.
President Williams said last night he
was of the opinion that the law prescrib-
ing the use of vestibules was capable Of
being successfully contested. but that he
preferred having vestibules on his COM
panys cars, since he had become con-
