RICHMOND MARKETS
RETAIL DEALERS ARE DIsPosING
OF MUCH MATERIAL USED IN
BUILDING.

The building trade situation In this
city, as shown by the demand for ma
terials at local dealers shops is above
the average. Hardware men, proprie-
tors of planning mills and other men
who sell material of various sorts,
say that their business at the present
time is fully up to their expectations
and there is yet much to come. klcn-
mond and surrounding towns seem
to be doing more building than was
first expected and the dea rs are
getting much of the ben9h. derived
from these conditions.
The present fiuctuating weather Is
hard on the seed trade as the dealers
do not know what to expect from one
day to the next and they are unable
to predict what their trade will be.

that wS observe the course of some
of our Parochial officers, almost
every day something occurs wor-
thy of commendation. We there
fore desire to make special men

George Henderson, than whom no
more efficient officer can be found
in the State. Intelligent, courage
Gus, resourceful, be is always
found at his post of duty and
equal to any emergency that calls
for enforcement of law. Recently
it came to bis knowledge that one
of his Deputies engaged in the
sale of liquor, was violating the
law with respect to Sunday clos
ing. AS soon as he was satisfied
of the truth of the charge, he sum-
marily dismissed him from his
force. and took legal steps for his
punishment as a violator of the
law.
1t will be remembered that af-
