WILLIAMSBURG, VA, February TO-
The Rev. w. A. r. Goodwin. formerly
rector of st. Johns Church. Petersburg,
but now In charge of Bruton Episcopal
Church., preached his first sermon TO a
very large congregation yesterday morn
Ing. The sermon was beautiful, and ap-
propriatc, and made deep impression.
His appeal for the cooperation of his
parishioners and tho good that this his
toric parish could accomplish was very
eloquent, Mr.. Goodwin will preach
at night to a large congregation.
The members of old Bruton are much
pleased with the new rector, and his
family, and feel that no mistake has
been made In the calling of so able and
earnest a man as Mr.. Goodmwln.
The choir of fifteen voices was led by
Miss Kate Bidgood, OF Richmond, who Is
the guest of Mr.. and Mrs II. D. Cole.
The music was especially good.
Congressman B. F. Caldwell, Of the
Springfield. I'LL. District. was Il visitor to
this city Saturday. He bore letter Of
introduction from Hon. II. L. Maynard
to Commemorative Attorney, r. T. Ar
instead, who escorted him about town.
The City Council will soon ask the Lcgis.

water works Just when the question
will be submitted to the people Is not

CROWDED JAIL
Number of Prisoners Far Exceeds the
Cell-Room Capacity.

When the city of Richmond made
contracts with the Stewart Iron Works.
OF Cincinnati, to build a new Jail. the
building was designed to accommodate
10 prisoners. Cell room for that num-
Der was constructed, and large
amount of space was left for additional
cells.
The Jail now has within It's walls more
than the capacity, or about 230 prison.
crs This puts everything in Il crowded
condition, and II Is likely that the
Grounds and Buildings Committee Will

cnlarging the place, by erecting cells IN
