The indications are that the Bostock
benefit for the Methodist Orphanage on
Friday will be very. successful and those
who have not already purchased their
tickets are urged to do so, and thereby
secure large amount for the Orphan
age.
No charity should appeal more strong
ly than the care of the little motherless
and fatherless children. The programme
Will be exceedingly interesting. and all
tickets will be good for either the after
noon or evening performance. Tickets
are on sale at q number Of stores and by
many persons throughout the city.

DIR, JoHNsTON's LETTER.
Richmond. Va, March 8, 1903.
,nator =. J. Harvey, Senate Chamber,

is .
Dear slr,-The necessity for law
regulating the practice OF medicine In
Virginia was first recognized BY the
medical men themselves They proposed
such q law and were chiefly instrument
tai in Its passage In 1885.
AT the time this law was enacted, It
was deemed sufficient. Recent rulings
of the courts developed the fact that
the present law is defective. The amend
ment to the law proposed by you seeks
to remedy the defect The medical pro-
fess!on Of the State has earnestly ad-
yocated the passage of the alnendment
as matter OF principle. The commit
tee from the Medical Society OF Vir-
ginia, charged with advocacy of the
measure, In presenting the amendments
to the Senate through the Committee
on General Laws, dlsclaimed any pur-
pose or desire to lnJure or harass any
citizen OF the Commonwealth,
That the Committee on General Laws
has given q favorable report to the bill
as amended Is complete establishment
OF the principle for which the Medical
Society commended Tho bill. II passed IN
Its present shape, will furnish the peo-
pie with an ample protection against
Ignorance and charlatanry as law
can provide.
because OF the fact that the Osteo-
paths now praeucing IN the state are
peacefully praotlcing under the rulings Of
tie courts, the committee Of the Medical
Society Of Virginia desire that these
practitioners shall be undisturhed An
their work, and therefore, request that
you will add to ths BILL ana support,
from examination gt the hands of the
State Board of Examiners.
these gentlemen have come into the
state under the impression that the law did
not apply to them. Counsel advised them

T0DAYS TEST.
Lowell Mills Will, Today, Open
Gates to Employees.
Expected That About 10000 Of IT,
600 Strikers Will Return.
Textile Council and Various Unions
Vote to Continue Strike.

Lowell. Mass, May 31.-The strength
of organized textile labor in Lowell
will be pat to the test, tomorrow morn
Ing, when the gates of the Booth,
Massachusetts. fremont and Suffolk.
Lawrence. Hamilton, Appleton and
Merrimac mills. the seven largest cor
porations il Lowell will be thrown
open to receive such of the 1900 or
more operatives who, nine weeks ago.
went out on strike on refusal of the
agents to increase the wages 10 per
cent. who desire to return. Upwards
of 10000 operatives are expected to re-.
spond to the call of the mill bells, and
having passed within the gates to APP
ply each for the position he or she held
up to April l.
Whether the response of the great
majority of the former operatives will
actually mean the end of the greatest
strike Lowell ever knew, remains to-
be seen. The key to the situation is
held by the unions of the skilled crafts
and of these the mule spinners, BEAM,
ers and loom fiXers WELD the greatest
inuence. Tonight the citizens of the
entire city are anxiously awaiting the
outcome. Mill agents and labor lead
ers alike decline to make predictions.
The Textile Council held a session,
tonight, ID unions being represented
and voted to continue the strike. Dele
gates reported the actions of the indi-
Viduai unions and the feature was the
statement of the representatives of the
stationary firemen that all firemen in
the seven mills had pledged themselves
to go out on strike in the morning.
The Individual unions have all held
meetings since the announcement that
the mills would reopen and in no in
stance was reference made to the
strike. the formal vote taken being to
have roll call at $50, tomorrow morn
ing, at the hall occupied by each union
Officers for the individual union hold
that having once endorsed the action
of the Textile Council in ordering the
strike reimbursement is unnecessary.
AT the roll call the names of absentees
will be listed and a committee appoint
ed to inquire into the reason.

How much ability l lost through this

of Grape Nuts and work hard all the
morning and never think about my
stomach until lunch time comes.

Dover, N. H., Bank Treasurer Confcsses
He Is an Embezzler.

Dover. N. H, May SLIT was stated.
Saturday afternoon, by the officials of
the STAFFORD Savings Bank that the
banl- which is one of the largest and
strongest in the state, had been found
within the past few days to have suf-
fered financial loss through the alleged
wrongful transactionsof Albert o.
Mathes. for the past 35 years it's treas
urer.
The alleged loss is placed at SIS 452. 43,
which. it is stated, represents the ag-
gregate discrepancy found to exist be-
tween the accounts of 10 depositors and
their passbooks.
The discovery that something was
wrong with the banks accounts was
made about 10 days ago during the
process of verification. This led Pres
Elisha r. Brown to Interview Treas.
Mathes. who about a month ago met
with an accident at the Milton Rail-
road station, sustaining the loss of one
leg who has since been confined there.
Pres. Brown said, today: when [
asked Treas. Mathes to explain these
discrepancies we had found, he at once
admitted that he had used money from
the accounts of the depositors in ques-
ton and said that we would find the
loss to be about $4,000 He gave the
names of the depositors from whom he
had taken money and the amounts
taken from each.
Mr.. Mathes told me he had lost on a
speculation several years ago and had
then taken money to make his loss
good, first from one or two depositors'
accounts. and later when Obliged to
make those accounts square, shifting
the discrepancy to other accounts. He
said he had not touched the note ac-
count. This we know is so, for he had
no opportunity to do that"
