In thinking about and planning for their

into Williamsburg, and then into Rich

WAR TIMES.
For some years previous to the civil
war. sports of the turf degenerated. and
the higher classes of Virginia society
discountenanced them. In the strenuous
ences and the establishment Of
times following the year 1865 there was
no leisure. even had inclination prompted
TO renew them The prosperity that the
last decade has witnessed has brought
about a turning back to earlier perfer-
the many fine stock farms which had
been a Characteristic feature of Vir-
ginia country life, at its flood tide The
changed tendency of living, however, also
led to the introduction of country clubs.
The natural outcome, of these in
course of time is the Horse Show. in
which the people Of Richmond are noo
as deeply engrossed as We're their fore
fathers in the earlier forms of the great
yearly exhibit
The Show. which will begin on Tues
day, viii be the second Of its kind held
here. The first was the great October
society sensation of 1901, and was so
brilliant a success as to warrant the
belief that, on account Of universal in
terest displayed October. 1902. must be
an outshining event, even in Horse Show
history. The number of beautiful women
who will come to Richmond from other
sections of the country will add, of
course, greatly TO the impression made
By the grace and beauty of the at-home
matrons and young girls. Many private
houses viii be thrown open to guests
and the boxes every night during the
Horse Show will be filed with a charm
ing array of gorgeously gowned mem
beers of the smart set from home

Franchise for 1t Will be Asked for by DIR.
Jennings and Associates.
AT the next meeting of the city
council franchise will be presented
by DR.. Jennings and associates asking
for the privilege of building an cleo
trio street railway from the Catholicon
to the plunge bath and to the Soldiers
Home grounds. DR.. Jennings says
that while in Chicago he met promi-
nent capitalists who are not unac.
quainted with Hot Springs and the
Black Hills who expressed desire to
invest capital in such an enterprise.
He says if the franchise is granted
they will begin operations this year
and will have a first.class electric line
completed by June 1st 1903. The elec-
tricity will be furnished by steam
plant rather than by water power.
The doctor says that the capitalists
who are seeking this franchise have
plans for the further extension of the
line to Wind Cave and even beyond,
possibly to Sylvan Lake and other
Hills points. The gentlemen have
great confidence in the future great
ness of Hot Springs and are willing to
invest capital accordingly. The fran
chise will be presented at the next
meeting of the council.

My Dear Sir:-Your letter of the 25th
inst. is received. You people of Hot
Springs mustn't hold up your hands
and quit the race every time discour-
aging item regarding the sanitarium
bill gets into the newspapers. If we
had taken this course we would have
quit long ago. If live long enough
aud am kept in Congress I expect to
land this sanitarium bill. think it
will be accomplished at this session.
The prospect never seemed as good
as it does just now. 1t has, however
been most uphill battle, and if we
succeed it will only be by united and
continuedpullto to the end. There is great
merit in the bill; but there have been
difficulties in the way that no one can
realize who is not engaged in the hand
to hand conflict. Very truly yours,
EBEN w. MARTIN.
MIR. Martin is right in his views. A
people can never win by laying down
every time things seem to go a little
wrong. Tie only way success comes
is by going after what you want and
holding right on. MIR. Martin is made
OF the right material. He is a stayer
and winner.

on leaving the opera house last Friday
evening after the song recital by
Myrtle Macdonald, soprano. This
seems to be the current opinion and
every one who was present has nothing
but praise for the splendid program.
Mrs. MacD Donald has magnificent voice
of great range and sweetness. The
artful way she uses it shows years of
cultivation aud much experience be-
fore audiences. The program was long
but many encores were demanded. AS
sisting Mrs. Macdonald, first comes
Rilla Mae Willis, accompanist, mu
sicianly young woman who plays with
understanding and sympathy. She
was fully in the spirit of the songs and
her accompanying was most delight

Donald, reader, gave number of se-
lections ranging from the grave to the
gay. His short stories seemed to make
an especial hit. Then Flo, the one man

applause. Flo is quite we'll known
in the vaud eville theatres back east
where he is billed as "Blondin-the one

The bcldsmon have fought tha payment uf t.tis money pcrsistenlN, which they had 9 perfect right to do. Of course tut the low and the facts were against them and they will be con- pellod to pay. The result is as it should be- both as matter Of law and q m5-- ter of juzt:ce. IL is unfortunate that the bondsmen were. by the pad faith of the principal. compelled to donate so many of their h2rd-enrne,; dollars to the ccv-ts. bat tlle latter was eu titled to the Gona ten. That is what borGsmen are for. r they could nol be held to the payment of tke obliga- lions they assume in signing alI official bond the act of giving bonds would become a useless formaiity, and pllb- lie trust would indeed become "a iri- vate sn2H.''
