NOTES FROM RICHMOND.

1t has been discovered at Richmond, Va.
that the law providing for personal prop
erty taxes passed two years ago did not re-
ceive the necessary majority in the state
senate, and that that act may be invalid.
Supreme court yesterday denied the ap-
plica ton for a mandamus 10 compel the
omission of inmates of state institutions
from the population of the city of Staun-
ton. The city desired to extend its borders,
and unless the inmates of the institutions
We're included, the population was not suf-
ficient to make 1t city OF the first class.
The decision puts Staunton in hrst class
and can extend her limits under general
law.
The Richmond Club. one of the social or
CARNATIONS of the city, has voluntarily sur
rendered it's charter.

GOOD FOR TWITcHINe HAND.
It's Said That the GrappIe Swing viii
Cure the Trouble.

Hand trembling, an affliction akin
to writers cramp" is apt to result
from the long continued exercise of
certain muscles and the neglect of
others.
The worst feature of the trouble,
according to Health-Culture, is it's
trick of coming on at the very time
when steadiness of hand would be
most desirable. The twitch of map
finishers muscles may throw ma
tional frontier 100 miles out of
treaty line; type words may get glued
together like the nouns of the Vola-
puk craze.
Hot baths afford only temporary re-
lief; drugs might as well be pre-
scribed to Sufferers; but there is one
never failing mechanical specific--the
grapple swing cure.
Procure couple of iron rings-say.
five inches in diameter-and fasten
them high enough to keep the ex-
perimenters feet off the ground when
he attempts to dangle by one hand for
a second or two. Practice will raise
his score to half a minute, and by the
time the tremors will have vanished
for the next half year.

THEATRICAL BENEFITS or OLD
Odd Reasons Assigned by Those For
Whom They Were Given.

From very earliest times stage per
formances for the benefit of charities
have been common. The first benefit
for an actress was awarded by James
l., who in this manner paid tribute to
the art of Elizabeth Barry.
Many and quaint are the announce.
ments of these old-time benefits. All
too frequent were such notices as
these: For some distressed actors
lately at this theater," and For the
benefit of a gentleman who has writ
ten much for the stage" In the early
part of the eighteenth century these
notices were more or less confessions
of personal insolvency.
One actor, for instance, announced
a performance for "the benefit of my
self and creditors" and another took
the public into his confidence and ar
ranged special night for the benefit
of my poor relations" Still more con,
fiding was the young actor who, stat
ing that his friends disliked his be
ing on the stage" organized bene-
fit to enable me to return to my for
mer employment"

BOOKS FOR GREAT coaaAN1-a.
Library Napoleon Ordered Comprised
Many Subjects.

In 1903 Napoleon formed the icea Of
having a travelling library in order to
make his hours of intellectual recre-
alton independent of the exigencies
of campaign or the delays of a
courier.
The proposed library was to form
about thousand volumes. The books
were to be of small duodecimo size,
printed in good type, and without mar
gins in order to save space. They
were to be bound in morocco, with
flexible covers and limp backs. The
boxes for their conveyance were to
be covered with leather and lined with
green velvet, and were to average
60 volumes apiece, in two rows like
the shelves in library. A catalogue
was to accompany them, so arranged
that the emperor could readily find
any desired volume. The distribution
of subjects was as follows: Forty
volumes on religion. 40 of epic poetry,
40 of the drama, 60 volumes of other
poetry, 60 volumes of history and
100 novels. In order to complete
the quota" ran the instructions. the
balance shall be made up of historical
memoirs james Westfall Thomp-
son, in the Atlantic.

Had the File.

The following incident really hap.
pened in well-regulated Boston a few
days ago: A young lady who tends a
manicure demonstration table was ap-
preached by woman who seemed
very interested in the toilet articles.
While being told what each and every
Article was for, she explained that she
had heretofore had no time to care for
her hands, but that she was going to
begin by purchasing an outfit at once.
She bought a complete manicure set,
with the exception of the finger-nail
fi'e. When asked If she wanted that
size replied: "Oh, no; you see, my hus-
band is carpenter, and he has a fine
large rasp, which will do for that
nicely"

BIBLICAL BASEBALL.

A Canton (O.) theological student in
terested in baseball wrote a thesis on
Baseball Among the Ancients," from
which are CLEANED the following facts:
Abraham made sacrifice.
The Prodigal Son made home run.
Cain made base hit when he killed
Abel.
David was great long-distance
thrower.
Moses shut out the Egyptians at the
Red sea.
Moses made his first run when he
slew the Egyptian.
The devil was the first coacher. Eve
stole first-Adam stole second.
When Isaac met Rebecca at the well
she was walking with pitcher.
Samson struck out great many
times when he beat the Philistines.
