Voice of
the People
The Need Of Laborers.
OF The Times-DIspatch:

Editor of The Times-Dlspatch:
Sr.-I see from your columns that a
move 1t on foot to ask an appropriation
of ten thousand dollars to supply labor
to meet the great demands of the farm
ers. factories, etc, of Virginia. Does
this appear to be an adequate amount
to meet the necessity? A laborer must be
a poor man. and, consequently. must
need help to get to Virginia. This feeble
effort may pacify some Of the people; but
/ daresay that when fifty thousand dol
lars is appropriated to beautify grounds
for tramps and negroes to sun themselves
on that some of our members Will find
out that the people have drawn COM
parison between the two appropriations
and the benefits resulting to the people
at large. n. r. GAINES.

NEWPORT NEWS. VA. January 2o.-A
coroners jury tonight returned verdict
to the effect that James Llewellyn. who
died at the st. James Hospital to-day,
came to his death as the result of paral-
ysis. It was reported that Llewellyn had
been robbed Of $1,000 and beaten into
sinsensibility about two weeks ago, Just
before he was found in semiconscious
condition at Leach's stable and removed
to the hospital. An autopsy revealed
the fact that death was caused by dis
ease. and the evidence before the inquest
proved that there had been no robbery.
The dead man was prosperous farm
er, who lived about five miles above thi.
city. He will be buried at Bethel Church
tomorrow.

What Sulphur Does.

'blood purifier tonic and cure-all, and,
mind you, this old-fashioned remedy was
not without merit.
The idea was good, but the remedy was
crude and unpalatable, and large quan-
tity had to be taken to get any effect:
Nowadays we get all the beneficial eff
fects OF sulphur in palatable concen-
trated form, so that single grain is far
more effective than a tablespoonful OF
the crude sulphur.

efforts OF the chief executive and his
support OF every movement which looked
to the betternent OF the public school
system. The college is indeed fortunate
in having such man connected with 1t;
and such man may not be unfortunate
to find himself in Richmond College, es-
pecially at this time, when every depart
ment of the institution Is taking upon
itself new life, and there is not a pro
fessor or student who does not believe
lege OF Richmond.
1t is indeed difficult to adequately ap-
preciate the true significance Of this
step. recently taken by Governor Mon
tague. 1t is prophetic to say the least.
Pile TO have citizens so patriotic and
their own private interests In order to
best serve society. 1t is indicative of
better things for the South when her
walks of public life laying aside high
salaries and public preferment, turn to
teaching as the most efficient way of
serving their country. A man OF such
noble aspirations and self-sacrifcing de-
votion to a cause can only be classed
with such men as Jefferson. j. l.. VIII
son. Curry. Cleveland and r. z. Lee.
The example has been set, the lead
has been taken: may rNany others see
the urgent need and respond as nobly
as Governor Montague to aid in the no
bliest and most important work that con-
fronts the Southern people to-day.

Fruit Growing.

Interest in the frut-growcrs' exhibition,

every section that bears the least share
in the production of fruit has taken the
matter up with an enthusiasm that has
never before been equalled There VIII
be over three hundred delegates here this
week to represent the various fruit sec
tIons of the State, and with them VIII
come host OF friends and visitors.
IL may be stated that the Importance
of this phase of Nirginia's agricultural
productions is possibly less known in this
State than II Is in the United States at
large and in Europe which rs great
expectation centre of Virginia's fruit. In
the production of fruit Virginia stands
about third in the matter of quantity and
about second as to quality.
In the European markets the Old Do
m'nion stands first az to quality, for the
fame of the Altemarle pippin is rs wide
spread there as it is on It's native SOIL.
When the markets of Europe were first
opened to the importation of American
fruits, the Albemarle pippin was for years
the only apple that was admitted free
of duty. In the courts of England II
was received with especial regard. for
1t was known that it was the favorite
apple OF the late Queen, who yearly re-
ceived large shipments. Liverpool. is
