An Important Alteration.

Apropos of the report that some
American modistes clothe fashionable
patrons gratis In return for the adWr-
tisements of their wares the London
Chronicle declares that D'Orsay, "the
last of the dandies," was much sought
after to advertise the goods of the
London tailors Of his day.
Mrs. Pitt Byrne also says in her
somewhat malicious Gossip of the
Century," "Such was the counts pres
tige that tailor to the Comte d'Orsay
was a far more privileged title than
tailor to his majesty. 1t was said,
moreover, that the client whose Gus
tom was SO profitable did not disdain
to share its advantages. By delicate
arrangement, each time the integu-
ments of the exquisite were sent home
he was to find bank note of certain
amount in the pockets. One day the
tailor sent in a suit pur ct simple, with
nothing but its own merits to recon-
mend 1t. D'Orsay's surprise was ex-
IRENE on discovering this departure
from the established custom, but he
was equal to the occasion. Calling his
valet, he told him to have Mr.. Stultz's
parcel returned to him for alteration,
with a message to the effect that he
had forgotten to line the pockets

GREENSBORO. N. c., September 20
Especial. .)-Letters which Chief-of-Police
Scott is receiving from Virginia are she'd
ding a good deal of light on the past ca
reer of J. W. Woody, if they can all be
believed. To-day he received one from
Covesville, Va, written by a party who
says he knows Woody well and all about
his alleged criminal achievement. The
Covesville man says that Woody was
raised in Covesville and that he is better
known there as Caffey, his mother after
her first husbands death having married
man named Caffey.
At Covesville, SO the letter runs, Woody
married a woman with some money or
property After he spent all her money
he left her and later turned up at Loving
ston, Va, whence his family originally
came to this place he was accompanied
by a woman whom he introduced as his
wife. The Covesville letter also charges
Woody with robbing freight cars, passing
himself off as a preacher and obtaining
money in this way, and other rascality,
and says that the record Of the mans
rascality, if printed, would fill volume

Another man who was in company with
him was badly burned, but will recover.
The two men were sitting between a pile
Of wood and the brick kiln. The wood
prevented them from getting out of the

carelessness in sitting in the dangerous
location is believed to be chiefly responsi-

LYNCHBURG HORSE SHOW.
The Great Event Awaited with Ea.

The Great Event Awaited with Ea-
ger Interest.
LYNCHBURG, Sept. 2O.-(Special.) 1.-The
management of the Horse Show to be
held in this city on Wednesday, Thurs
day, and Friday. October 22d, 23d, and
24th is much encouraged at the very
tlattering outlook for the exhibition The
people Of the neighborirg cities and sur
rounding counties are looking forward
with much pleasure to this the first
horse show ever held in this section Of
the State, and society folks are SO ar
ranging their social events as that there
will be no conflict between them and the
dates of the splendid affair. Southwest
Virginia long has been famed for its
fine horses, but it has never had an op-a
portunity before of exhibiting them in
the show ring. Lynchburg will Draw
largely both from the horses and the
people of this section of the State.
Work upon the amphitheatre in course
OF construction in Rivermont is progress
ing rapidly; the contractors have a large
force Of men at work, and it looks now
as though they were going to complete
their contract ahead Of time The build
ing is proving an object of interest to the
citizens of Lynchburg, and is visited daily
by large crowds.
Mr.. C.. W. Smith, the manager of the
Lynchburg and Richmond shows spent
several days here during the past week
in the interest of the show. Mr.. Smith
thinks the fact that the Lynchburg show
will follow SO closely upon Richmond's
will increase the number Of entries at
both places, as exhibitors will be able
to make the trip to the two shows at
much less expense than if the dates were
further apart.
The sale Of boxes continues satisfac-
tory, about one-half the entire number
having been taken already.
As Lyachburg's show will be the last
of the season in the South, a number OF
the exhibitors will avail themselves Of
the opportunity, which the sale that the
Association proposes to hold on Satur-
day, October 25th will give them to dis
pose Of their stock. This sale will in
clude number Of horses that have taken
ribbons at the shows heretofore held in
Virginia this year.
Altogether, it looks now as though the
Horse Show would be quite an event in
the history Of the city and one Of which
Lynchburg may justly be proud.

And all. of course. pay much attention,
TO the proper safeguard of the money in
transit
NO GOLD SHIPPED.
Curiously enough, though there is now
more gold in the country than ever
before, there are practically no ship
ments Of gold for the purpose of handling
the crops. The shipped currency is all in
silver dollars and bank notes, the latter
being largely in small denominations.
Often a shipment of 100000 will be in
81 notes. This is because the farmer
wants his money in convenient form to
pay out in wages. Nearly all the 81 notes
go to western points. such small notes
not being wanted in the South. There
silver dollars are in great demand, main
ly because the negroes, who make up
the great bulk of the southern Industrial
problem, like cart wheel dollars better
than bank notes. Big shipments are
moved West as well as South. however,
and. of course, tons and tons of these
shipments are in half dollars. quarter
dollars, and dimes, besides nickels ana
cents for making change.
Returning to gold for a moment, it
may be interesting to know that its
transportation from the East to the West
is exceedingly rare at any time. In 1898.
during the prevalence Of the currency
famine, some gold was so transported,
and at intervals the yellow metal in
quantities is sent from San Francisco to
the East, but all ordinary currency ship
ments are confined to notes and silver.
It seems that while the country as
whole has decided in favor of gold as
its monetary standard the people do no,
like to use it as an actual circulating
medium.
The packing Of silver for shipment
Is much simpler than the packing of
notes. since owing to its great bulk ana
weight-every $1,000 weighing sixty
pounds-it would be difficult for a thief
to get away with any considerable sum
in silver. 1t is therefore, placed for ship
ment In plain, strong bags, which are
tied and the knot protected with a wax
seal
