POLICE RECEIVE ORDERS
Premature Patriots and Noisy Huctsters
Under Surveillance.
Penalties Will BE Enforced in All
4, +
Violations of Law Against
Use of Explosives.

Mai Sylvester issued ordefts to the mem
ters of the police force today calling at
tention to certain noises made by hucksters
and rewsboys, and another anticipating pre-
mature Fourth of July celebrations Many
complaints and a few inquiries have been
addressed to the authorities concerning the
matters mentioned, and complaint has also
been made about boys going in swimming in
public places.
The Fourth of July order reads:
"As the day we celebrate July T. ap-
proaches children and others have been OBJ
served firing crackers, shooting pistols,
placing caps and torpedoes on car tracks,
and so forth, in violation of law.
members of the force will take the
names and addresses of such children and
report them to their parents, and for a sec
ond offense exercise more stringent meas
ures.
selling explosive articles without permits to
do So
The other order deals with hucksters and
Eewsboys. as follows:
Complaints have been made to this de-
partment of hucksters and others making
needless noise outcry, for the purpose
of advertising wares or attracting the at.
tention or inviting the patronage
for business Also 'hat
ne-ysboys cry their newspapers at iyregu-
lar and unusual hours; all III conflict with
article . of the police regulations. Mem
bers of the force are enjoined to enforce
the regulations, and in doing so Will exer-
else that intelligence and firmnesS which
has heretofore characterized their work.
Judges of the Police Court have con-
strued the regulation relating to unusual
noises as meaning that If a person is cry
ing his wares on ore square, so that he
can be heard on the adjoining square or
block he is violating the regulation; If he
can only be heard on the square in which
he is standing, he is not violating the law.
"A warning t. boys often accomplishes
the desired end. If not observed by them
thereafter they should be arrested
There has been no order issued relating
to the boys who go in swimming. Harbor-
master Sutton has received some of these
complaints most of them being about boys
who bathe in secluded places. While the
officer in charge of the police navy believes
in enforcing the law, he does not believe
in frightening the small boys while they
are in deep water by starting his boat in
their direction, ard probably causing loss
of life The police on the beats adjoining
the water will see to the strict enforce
ment of the law.

FOR 4 NEW THEATRE.
A Syndicate TO BE Formed To-D"'-
anSP Per Cent. Investment.

The agitation for the building OF a new
theatre in Richmond has already borne
fruit. Mr.. Greanor Neal and Mr.. SIMON
svcle will canvass the city to-day in the
interest of the new enterprise, and
number Of capitalists have promised 10
lend their support TO the scheme. II Is
said that a good tenant can be found 70
paw an annual rent equivalent to per
cent. of the sum 10 be invested.
It is the present intention of those who
have taken the matter up 10 have the
theatre built during the summer months'
ca that Il will be ready for occupation
when the next season opens. IL IS stated
upon good authority that two other syn
dicates are being formed with the same
object I'm view, and It is not improbable
that all the conflicting interests Will be
dove-tailed.
The location for the theatre has not yet
been decided. though 1t is consensus OF
opinion that 1t should be In the heart OF
the business district.
A special received by the Dispatch last
night from Newport News says:
1T is learned here on excellent author
ity that Mr.. Thomas @. Leath, lessee or
the Academy of Music in Richmond ana
one OF the leSSee'S or the new AcdueihJ
OF Music 10 be built here, is negotiating
for the erection OF new theatre in Rich
mond. 1t ID stated authortatively that
Mr. Leath's plan is 70 build a first-class
playhouse on property adjoining the JEFF
ferson Hotel, and that the house VIII be
after the most modern style, II built az
all. He is arranging now for the neces-
sary capital. and, II successful, hicn-
mond will have a playhouse that VIII
compare with any in the South. IL Is UNI
derstood that no difficulty will be expert
enced in securing the property ADJOINING
the Jefferson"
Mr. Leath, being shown this dispatch'
said an erroneous impression had gotten
out in Newport News. There has been
some talk" he said, "of building new
theatre near the Jefferson, and lndl-
Gated what rent / would pay for a house
in that locality, but the movement mas
NOT resulted in success. There Is, how
ever a plan on foot now In which Colo
mel Mummy and Messrs. Cohen, Sycle,
and others are interested which, | be-
Ileye will result in getting playhouse
mat will be a credit to Richmond
plans have also been prepared by
New York architect for the owners OF
the Academy looking to the complete re-
novation OF that house al cost OF Sls,VoO
or $4,000. Mr.. Leath mas notned me
