ElnhtInQ at Baku.

St. Petersburg, Sept. 4.-Despatches
received by the ministry of the interior
estimate that fifty persons were killed
during the fighting at Baku, Caucasia,
September 2, with a relatively large
number Of wounded, the majority OF
whom are tartars. Private dispatches
report that corpses are lying about the
streets and that incendiary fires have
already destroyed ISL buildings and are
in progress. Both factions, after the
former disorders, supplied themselves
fully with arms and they are now al
most as well equipped for street fight
ing as the troops.
The situation not only at Baku, but
also throughout the Caucasus, has been
exceedingly tense for weeks. The dis
orders at Shusha had just ceased when
the street car strike at Baku furnished
the occasion for another outbreak.

"Can you change a note for me?'
asked ]. M. Richards, coal operator
of West Virginia, addressing one of the
clerks in the Bellevue-Stratford.
Certainly" replied the clerk.
Mr.. Richards produced roll of 81, 900
bills and handed over one of the notes.
"Give me $500 bill and the rest in
small change-$5O notes will do," he
said, carelessly.
When the clerk regained his self
possession he told Mr.. Richards that he
did not have enough money on hand to
change a $1,000 bill. A messenger
took it to a bank and procured the
change.

to nominate candidate to represent

The convention was called to order
by H. G. Mccall, county chairman of
Tazewell county, and Rev. w. H. Kelly,
one of the most venerable and highly
honored citizens of this county, opened
the meeting with prayer. His prayer

ion. Strong men wept as his patriotic

the Ruler of all countries and all men.
On motion ]. H. Stinson, of Buchan-
an county, was made chairman OF the
meeting and VIM. C. Pendleton was
made Secretary. Nominations were

erty, who paid high compliment to
the candidate, telling of the high es-
TEEN in which he was held by the peo-
pie of Buchanan. There. being no other
name placed before the convention, he
was nominated by acclamation. Mr..
Royal was then introduced to the con-
vention and in brief address accepted

DISEASES IN RlCHmONl'.
Health Boards President Declines to
Give out Figures on 0iphtherla
and typhoid.

Richmond, Va, Sept. 4.-Uneasiness
is manifested at the prevalence here of
typhoid fever and diphtheria, which
diseases are said to be on the increase.
President W. T. Oppenheimer of the
City Board of Health, today denied the
newspapers access to the record of this
board, taking the ground that the pub
lication of news of this character is a
bad advertisement for the city, and is
likely to injure business. DIR. Oppon-
heimer declared that there is no cause
for alarm, and that the. dangerous dis
eases are not on the increase. The
records, however, he said, must remain
closed.

Bristol, Tenn, Sept. 4.-Miss Maggie
Hammond, who has been employed as a
domestic in the house of ]. D. Taylor,
on Pennsylvania avenue, for quite a
while, has found herself minus nine
hundred dollars in cash. This money
she had been carrying in band, fast
ened about her waist. On her return
from trip down town day or two ago,
she discovered that the cash was miss
ing. The police force was notified, but
there seems to be no clue. The money
was principally in currency and was the
proceeds, it is said, from house which
she sold in Morristown, Tenn.

upon Mr.. Grifiths moved that Mr..
Dickenson's nomination be made by
acclamation, which was done with a
hearty good will. Mr.. Dickinson was
then introduced to the convention as Its
nominee and in a short, but graceful
speech accepted the honor.
The following resolution was offered by
J. N. Harman, which was unanimously
adopted:
Resolved, that we heartily approve
of the platform adopted at the Roanoke
Convention, and, as honest elections
are the basis of all reforms, we COM
mend especially the seventh plank in
that platform which pledges ian honest
count of the ballots, unfalsifed returns,
and wholesome, non-partisan election
laws that will protect voters of every
political creed from the outrages Of dis
honest election officers.
To this end, in the Inauguration of the
new era in Virginia politics, we pledge
the Republican party to give one judge
and one clerk of election at each voting
precinct to the political party casting
the next highest number of votes in the
preceding general election, such Judge
and clerk to be chosen from list OF
suitable persons furnished by the county
and city committees of said party. Also
to give representation to said party
on the electoral boards.
We hail with pleasure the announce
ment made by Judge Lewis, that if he
is elected governor of Virginia he will
give said party representation on every
board appointed by him..
These conventions were the largest
and most enthusiastic of their kind ever
held in this section, and give promise
that the men they nominated will be
elected by handsome majorities.
On motion the convention adjourned.

HOW PEOPLE
LOSE MONEY

By concealing it about their person.
by slowing it away in mugs, jugs and
jars; by sewing it up in skirts and ticks;
by tucking it under the couches and car
pets, in cupboards and bureau drawers;
these are some of the ways by which
people lose their money, and sometimes
their lives.
HOW PEOPLE SAVE MONEY
By depositing it in good, reliable
bank. Confident that this bank fully
meets the public's needs, we tender its
services to all who believe in keeping
on the safe side.
You can get your money whenever
you want it and if deposited in our Saw
ings Department (sums either large or
smalD it draws interest at the rate of
three per cent per annum.

Twenty-Five cents the boys said they
wanted the full amount agreed upon or
none at ALL The woman put the twenty
FIVE cents back in her purse and told the
boys if they didn't hurry away she would
send for a policeman. There was a
whispered conversation between the lads
and mo1nent later shovels were digging
into the pile of snow on the street and i
was being thrown back on the walk from
which it had been removed.
Persons in adjoining houses who
watched the lads from the windows won

that Mr.. Stokes has gone On record ~
willing TO eountenance only small de-
tachment Of the troops As 4 persona es-
cort to the incoming executive.
Governor-elect Stokes is now devoting
all his spare time to the preparation of
his inaugural address. He said yester7
day that owing to the pressure Of other
business he had been able up TO this time
TO do little more than outline the address.
When asked if he had heard amy thing
of movement for the passage Of a bill
authorizing the Governor to appoint
commission to revise the corporation
laws OF the State, he replied that he had
not. When asked further if he thought
that the corporation laws needed revis-
ion, he said that if he had any views on
that question he would set them forth in
his inaugural address, which has led to
the belief that he wifi have some sug-
gestions 10 make in that direction
The members Of the party that ae-
companied Governor Murphy to the Lott
isiana Purchase Exhibition at st. Louis
last fall for the purpose Of fittingly OH
serving New Jersey Day have prepared
beautiful souvenir of the occasion to
be presented TO Colonel Lewis T. Bryant
Colonel Bryant was the secretary Of the
New Jersey Commissioners to the Fair,
and it is mainly due to his personal IF
forts that the trip was such delightful
one and that each member Of the party
was enabled to thoroughly enjoy the visit
TO the Fair without any Of the iueonyen-
fences and petty annoyances which are
always connected with such affairs The
presentation will probably take place
next Tuesday, when most Of the party
will be at the State House.
