INGENIOUS SCHEMES TO KEEP
CHILLING BLASTS ON OUTSIDE

vices being adopted to keep warm this
fall and yet not spend a fortune Strike
or no strike, the shect-iron heaters are
going to be much used this winter. But
with the strike, if wood does not get too
bigh they will be adopted more generally
than ever. Gas stoves are being pur-
chased now in great numbers. OIL stoves
the heater variety, are in great demand
Inc housewife and her provident hus-
band are OF the opinion that these will
supply the warmth needed in the fall
The hope is clung to that by the dead of
winter the strike will be over and for
gotten, and coal will come down from
among the prices usually thought OF in
connection with jewelry. and plain oak
ans pine wood will no longer be in the
class with mahogany.
The ingenuity of corporations to meet
the emergency when it should come has
also been interesting. It was stated yes
terday by one of the officials of the Pas
senger and Power Company that the cars
Of that company have been hauling fif-
teens cords Of wood a day to the power
house. to be used in case of absolute
necessity.
PROVIDING FOR THE POOR.
One of the gravest questions confront
ing the people of Richmond is the
poor, MT lie entirely indignant. but that
class of residents who arc worthy, re-
spectacle and self-sustaining under ortli-=

will not give sufficient margin to pay for
coal at present prices or even gas and
oil for heating purposes. Mr.. I. N.
Jones has attempted a solution of this
problem. He has made generous Of.

the public through the following letter:

WINCHESTER, VA, October o
Armed with club and violently insane,
Rev. Lewis Roy. a negro, of giant
stature, ran amuck in the southern end
Of the county. and for ten hours kept
whole communities in a state of terror.
The negro became crazed last Sunday
while leading religious revival at his
home in Rappahannock county, and i'm
agined that the Almighty had commits
stoned him to kill everybody he came
across.
At Armet, at o'clock this morning.
he battered down a number Of doors to
residences and assaulted the sleeping In
mates with club. One mans arm
was broken. A posse of armed men
started in pursuit, and about noon Roy
was overtaken at Stephens City. Yelling
and cursing he dashed through the town
threatening to kill any one who stopped
him. Followed by the posse and half
the male population OF the town. armed
with all sorts Of weapons, the negro was
finally surrounded. the crowd closing in
on him. and he was captured after a
desperate struggle.

ton Huge Success.

Magnifcently and with regal splendor
the three days session of the Interna-
tional Association of Municipal Electri-
clans was brought to a close at Muir
phys Hotel last night with a sumptuous
banquet and grand ball. There were
present a hundred or more delegates
from all sections of the country, their
wives, sisters and daughters, and a num-
Der of outsiders, every one of whom was
lavish in the praises of the entertain
ment accorded the electricians by the
city of Richmond. The convention will
long be remem bered as one of the most
successful ever held in this section Of
the country.
In addition to the feast, the best that
Colonel John Murphy's chef knew how
to prepare, there were toasts-such toasts
as are calculated to make the hearts OF
Richmonders swell with pride. The city

Executive Committee De-
cides in Favor Of Elicit
and Edwards.

The Republican State Executive Com
mittee held a meeting at Murphyts Hotel
last night, which was devoted almost
exclusively to dealing with contests. re-
latinS to the regularity of party candi-
dates and party chairmen and COM
mittees.
Chairman Park Agnew presided and
Secretary Asa Rogers was at his desk.
All the districts were represented either
in person or by proxy. and the meeting
lasted until long past L o'clock.
Apparently. everything went the way
of the machine, and the work of the
body has but tended to widen the
breaches it was called to heal.
In the matter OF the rival candidates
for Congress from the Third District the
committee decided unanimously that Mr..
3. w. Edwards, of West Point, had been
regularly nominated and that the body
which named .Parson' Talley was a
.rump' convention. But of far more
local interest was the decision Of the
committee in recognizing Mr.. u. NJ.
Elicit as chairman OF the Richmond City
Committee over Mr.. NJ. NJ. Williams.
who has been chairman for three Or
four years.
LILY WHITES IN MANCHESTER
This carries with 1t a committee in
ignores the one headed by Mr.. Williams.
In the Manchester contest the negro or
ganization was thrown overheard. and
the .'lily whites" headed by Mr.. Thos.
Fl. Smith.
It cannot be said that the action OF
the committee in any instance caused
great surprise, but it has surely rem
dered the situation much more strenu-
Gus among the Republicans here. and has
insured a long and bitter controversy In
the future.
United States Marshal Morgan Treat
was spokesman for the Edwards-E1lett
or administration side, while '.Parson'
'ralley and Mr.. Williams appeared for
themselves.
Mr.. Talley objected to the congressional
matter being brought before the body.
He stated that he and Mr.. Edwards had
signed a contract. agreeing to leave the
matter of regularity to Chairman Bab-
cock, Of the National Comittee. and
pending the decision of that gentlean he
thought the committee should not deal
with it.

He told them very frankly that he was
in the fight to stay. unless Mr.. Bab-
cock should say come down. whatever
action the committee might .ake.
MIR. Williams made oriet statement.
asserting his right to the Craftsmanship.
and asking for time in which to present
his case. He said he had had only a few
hours notice Of the meeting. and claimed
that the proceedings smacked Of snap
Judgment.
The decision Of the committee in all
the cases gave the "ins' or machine
forces a great deal Of comfort. but the
other wing was kicking hard last night.
One Of the Williams-Tarrey crowd said
the meeting had been secretly called to
do the bidding Of the office-holders, and
had done it in the face Of all that was
fair and right He declared that such
methods would disrupt the party, and
that it might never hope to win victories
while proceeding on such lines.
