NEXT MAYOR OF RICHMOND.
what the Boston Post Says OF Mr..
John VI. Higgins.

ID The Boston Post of last Sunday aD-
reared twO-cOlumn cut OF Mr.. John NJ.
HIGGINS. OF this city. The Post had the
following TO say concerning him:
"srhe Hon. John NJ. ggins who has
been visiting m Boston during the week,
is one of the most distinguished citizens
of Richmond, Va.
HE was born tn Sligo Ireland, bat he
came to America when mere youth, and
he has lived In Richmond Tor nearly hlty
years.
"In that time he has received the high
est hon0rs from the citizens of his adopt
ed city. He served eighteen consecutive
terms i'm the Richmond Common Council
and has been q delegate 10 every SuDer-
material convention since 1854. lie is very
likely 20 be the next Mayor OF Richmond.
Mr. Higgins has always been an ar
dent Democrat. He Is am enthusiastic
Bryan man. 10 was during the last pres
idential campaign that ne sent the fol-
lowing telegram 10 Bryan: AS an Irish
Catholic and a countryman OF Bourke
Cochran. / send you hearty congratula-
tiOns. Never again, 1 hope. will Ameri-
cans be required 10 wear the badges OF
serfdOm As the Daniel o COnneN OF
America / salute YOU.
In a chat with Mr. Higgins by a ESOst
representative. when he visited the Post
NE meant by badges Of serfdom Why
nc said the Republicans made the rail-
road and other corporation employees
wear badges 10 show that they were for
gold / consider such emblems badges OF
serfdOm.
In talking OF the political situation in
the South he said: Bryan is stronger
than ever. / think he viii be the next
President In my opinion Imperialism will
swamp the Republicans. There is too
much true American patriotism 70 toier-
ate any such policy as Imperialism. in
yOlving as 81 does. the abandonment OF
the principles OF the Constitution as pro-
mulgated by the fathers Of Che republic.
The south as a whole, Is more united
than ever before / am confident that
kentucky will keep IN tie Democratic
column. There Is a division In Maryland
which will rebound 10 the advantage OF
The Democrats. Baltimore IS thoroughly
disguised with Republican rule
When asked something about the nota-
bic campaigns IN which he took part. Mr..
higgins said; The most important-and
q was one OF the most important IN
America. IN my oplnlon-was IN 1856 when
] took an active part I'm the campaign
under the leadership OF the gallant. brave.
eloquent and chlvalrous Henry A. Wise.

EMPLOYMENT BUREAU.
Many Girls are Now Coming in-ScOres
of Inquiries.

The Employment Bureau Of the Young
Mems Business Association is still at
work and rs q result young ladies are
being brought to Richmond from the rural
district and placed in the factories of this
city and Manchester in good paying posi-
tions.
On account Of the many questions to be
asked and answered the work goes on
slowly.
Mr.. l.. ". Burweli. the manager Of the
Bureau. is Kept busy answering inquiries
Of all sorts and sending out orders 10 his
agents I'm the different communities for
certain numbers Of girls. Orders have
been placed i'm Mr.. Burwelrs hands by
the r. Whitlock Branch Of the Amcri-
can Tobacco Company for fifty girls. Be
sides these orders have been received
from various other factories IN this city
and Manchester for girls.
Mr.. Burwell was visited by twelve girls
Yesterday and at once placed them in
a board ng-hoLse on Church Mn and ST.
cured them positions in a factory.
Mr.. BurWen is very much worried some
times by young women applying for
such positions as saleswomen, typewri-
tiers and teachers in schools. This week
he received communication from a
lady in the western part Of the state.
saying that she now held a position as
teacher IN a school which paid her s25
per month and her board, and that If she
could secure a better position as teacher
fin Richmond she would take IT,
Mr. Burwell says that the girls do not
seem TO understand that the Bureau is
trying to get young ladies for the work
I'm the factories only, and not TO secure
FOR them all kinds Of positions. and that
although It is printed on the posters, in
large red letters that the work is to be
in factories. the people seem to have to-
tally overlooked IT.

Car,a,, Cunnineham's Singing.

The Strasburg News, OF September 18th,
has the following to say about Captain f..
W. Cunningham:
Capt. Frank Cunningham. the sweet
voiced tenor. OF r edmond. sang Shall We
Meet Beyond the River At the Mosby
monument unveiling at Front Royal. As
he sang his auditors imagined that they
heard the ripping of the water Of that
river. II made them all better men and
better women for a time and many for al
time. Cunningham's singing is always
beautiful. always inspiring, but never was
he in better voice than on this occasion.
SHAH We Meet Beyond the River?' where
have gone the Mosby martyrs, was never
asked more gently, more entreatingiy
more sweetly than by Frank Cunning
