OF Gentry's Pony show
Assaulted by an Unknown
Negro.

Jas. W. Thiesseu, doorkeepsr OF the Gen.
try Dog and Pony Show, was seriously cut
Win razor last Friday night, jast before
the performances began, ny an unkuown
negro who made his escape IN the crowd dur.
,ng the excitement following the cst,iug apd
has not yet been captured.
The attempt on Mr.. Thiessen's life was one
OF the most outrageous and upprovoksd
assaults ever committed 10 this city, for there
was no row in progress and no ina 2 10 able
motive for the attack. At the time the
assault vs. made there was a large crowd
gathered around the entrance to the tent aud
jam was created that blocked the door.
hr. Thiesssn endeavored to get the crowd to
give bsck to make way for several ladies who
were trying to enter the tent. The crowd of
negroes did not comply with his request to
move aod he theo undertook to push bis
way through to make room for those who
wished to enter the tent When be did ibis
negro with a'ciub or stick 10 bis hand at
tempted to strike him. He caught the
negroes arm to ward off the blow and the
negro then slashed at his face or throat with
razor. he threw up his arm TO protect bis
face sod caught the blow on the elbow.
The rasor cut 10 the bone, making q dan.
gerous and vicious looking wound s.veraI
inches long. Several arteries were severed,
but though the large artery Of the forear m
was laid bare 1t ives not severed. As, soon
as Mr. Thiesseo was cut he Jumped inside the
tent entrance to obtain Q weapon to defeu
himself, bot tainted from pain aud loss OF
blood before he could do so.
Or: Stuckey, who was 10 the tent, was
called to Sir. Thiessen's assistance and reu.
dered immediate attention, and then had him
removed ito the Baker b Dick IuarGary
where the wounds were dressed. Mr.. Thies.
sens condition for several hours was ex.
tremely critical, and artificial respiration had
10 be resorted TO to keepl life 10 bis body. He
lost great deal OF blood and was so seriously
weakened that be did not have the vitality to
rally. The uext day be rested easily and is
believed to BE- out Of danger.

Tho venr 1899 among the commission

as regards a steady run OF business and
satisfactory results In the final summing
ND. The large area Of country which
heretofore furnished the products handled
by our commission men has not failed 10
respond with liberal shipments this year,
whenever our market gave fair promise
Of a small margin to the shipper. The
year lust closing has been an exception
aiiv good one for placing our goods at
fair market value, not only because We
have been enabled by attractive stocks TO
furnish our usual Out-of-town trade, but
in addition thereto have been called upon
IA SUNNY a largely increased demand for
home consumption, caused by the general
D., innroved condition Of our city, brought
ohout bv the establishment IN our midst
of several large manufacturing plants

resulting naturally in an Increased ue-

which these shipments have been handled

Of being one OF the most reliable produce

features about the conduct Of the pro-
duce commission business Of this city
which are important factors in the sum

and the retention by our merchants Of
the confidence OF their shippers. The
most important among these are the
promptness in sending returns and the
reliability with but few EXCEPTIONS OF
quotations In the larger northern cities,
grch as New York, Philadelphia, and

A BUILDING BOOM IN 1900.

The outlook for 1900 Is said by builders
10 be tho brightest in many years. II IS
predicted that more buildings Of every
description viii be erected than during
the year just ended, probably more than
in ten years past
The unusually high price OF material
has prevented much building. The de-
mand forced up prices until they reached
a point never before attained. Some
grades Of board advanced as much as %
per cent. Framing lumber went up 70 per
cent during the year Lumber Of every
character advanced not less than 20 per
cent Tho do'nand has not been supplied.
Activity I'm every branch OF industry
caused an unprecedented scarcity Of
labor. Saw-mNl men were utterly unable
10 I'm orders. owing 20 inability 10 obtain
sufficient labor. They had been selling for
several years az prices which barely left
q margin. For six months fheir profits
have been abnormal.
The price Of building material Of every
character. including lumber. brick, stone,
tin. nails. and glass. is expected 10 come
down during the year, as the result Of
strenuous efforts 10 supply the demand
The decrease I'm price Of material, as well
as an increase in the demand for houses
Of every character. resulting from an in
crease in population and the influx Of
capital. are expected 10 be the factors
which will cause a veritable building
boom IN Richmond during the last year
of the century.
