In Alexandria County,


FORT MYER HEIGHTS, Va.
July 90, 1899.
Before Judge J. NJ. Love, in the Alexan-
dria county court, Rev. William j. Young
of the Ballston Presbyterian Church fur
niShed bond in the sum of $500, as required
by law, to enable him to perform the mar
riage ceremony at Ballston. Mr.. William c.
Wibirt qualified as bondsman, with the per-
mission of the court
On the motion of Assistant Common
wealth Attorney Carlin, Judge Love direct
ed that a rule issue against all former
justices of the county who withheld public
property from their successors in office. In
explanation Mr.. Carlin stated that in sew
eral cases books and documents remained
in the possession of magistrates whose term
of office had expired. Owing to the lack of
to replace the property thus missing Ap-
plication will also be made to the board of
supervisors for an appropriation to assist
in supplying the new officials with proper
books and forms.
1t developed today that, through the eff
forts of Sheriff Palmer, the negro assailant
of the ladies recently assaulted and robbed
In Arlington cemetery was captured last
Saturday and confined in the county Jail
Efforts were made by the officials to To-
cate the victims of the crime, but the iden-
tity of the ladies could not be learned and
the sheriff was compelled to release his
prisoner for want of evidence against him
1t is said, however, that the man will be re-
arrested should it prove possible to make a
case against him.

To Control Crowds,

Major Sylvester is going to adopt what
is known as the crowd rope" to be used
by the members of the police department
in handling crowds. This rope is to be
twenty-four feet long, looped at the ends,
with a third loop half way between the
ends. These loops are large enough to
get the batons thu ough, and three police
men, it is thought, will be able, in cases of
emergency, to do the work of at least
twice as many men without the aid Of
the rope. In handling a crowd at fire,
for instance, if the crowd is too much for
the rope to be used in front, second rope
used near the rear will cause the breaking
of the crowd and make the front rope eff
fective. Major Sylvester's plan is to have
two of these ropes carried in each patrol
wagon. Their use, it is claimed, will pre-
vent the police from coming in contact
with people in the crowds. In this way
the use of the club will be avoided and
there will be no reason for complaints
from people in crowds that are thus ham
died.

FOUR POUNDS OF FLESH
FROM ONE POUND OF FOOD.


The statement is made that one pound OF Grape
Nuts will supply more nourishment THAT the sys-
TEN will abserb) than 10 bs. ofImeat, wheat or
oats.
A man protested that the claim was extravagant
but upon trial it was found that by leaving on
meat altogether at breakfast and lunch and tax
ing in its place heapng teaspoons OF Grape-Nuts
he began to gain flesh and strength, and before the
full pound package was gone he had gained lbs.
in weight, whereas lie had been losing on his meat
diet.
How could he gain lbs. and only eat / Id.
Grape-Nuts? Remember the teaspoons OF Grape
Nuts are but portion Of the meal, but they fur
nsh the re-digested and easily assimilated part
and help digest other foods, assisting nature In
building in water G5 per cent of all flesh. IN
other words, Grape-Nuts furnish the workers or
the active elements of food in the most perfect
condition for nature to make use of.
Grocers furnish Grape-Nuts at 10 cents per pack
age.

1T is true that although this paper deals
with the judicial administration of a great
Trust. / does not present any line hair
splitting legal questions, but it shows that
in American Jurisprudence there have been
evolved a method whereby the courts can
take a great property whose administration
is full of difficulty, and they can so re-
habilitate il that substantial justice may
be done to bondholders, floating debt cred
tors and stockholders: that this can be
done without violating any of the we'll
defined rights of any creditcr-and that ii
is the duty of the courts in administering
these great trusts, 10 place the property in
the position where its possible earring
capacity can be shown, and correctly fair
ard just reorganization can be made.
When the court had done its work and
put the property into the position where its
fair earning capacity could be shown. il
became evident that no one interest need be
sacrificed, and then was brought into play
that wonderful and delicate machinery of
modern commerce, a part OF what Mr..
BaSehot calls the lending apparatus of the
world whereby the distributions of more
than S200,000,O coo of securities was secured
by great banking houses-Speyer Brothers,
Speyer & Co. and Kuhn Loeb q Co. They
placed their names on a rgaatZation
agreement, and at once the loan ara in
vestment fund and the speculative fund
Of two continents was drawn On TO make
the plan a success.
