HOSPITAL DAY RETURNS.

Hospital day as a revenue producer
for the hospital has proved to be a
great success. From what we under
stand over $500 was collected from
voluntary offerings at the thirty-eight
stands over the city. The markets in
the past have never yielded more
than s75 and the difference between
the two methods is so great as like
wise are the monetary returns that 1T
is safe to say Hospital day will here
after be an annual affair in Richmond.
The success of the undertaking rests
with those unselfish workers who
gave their time and thought to it and
to the charitably inclined who con-
tributed towards the good work. Yes
terday's results show that Richmond
can congratulate itself upon having a
plentiful supply OF both kinds Of such
citizens.

WANT SMALLER CERTIFICATES.

If the Pennsylvania pays Richmond
employees by the cash and check sys-
tenn again, the merchants of Rich
mond would like the big corporation
to issue the clearing house certificates
in smaller denomination, local retail
er has said. He also made the asser-
ton, that he would few weeks prior
to the next Pennsylvania pay, attempt
to ascertain the method to be used
and would ask merchants to appeal TO
the big roads higher officers, to issue
the checks in smaller denominations.
He said that $40 certificates, such as
were issued this month work too great
hardship upon the merchant who
cashes them in favor of bills owed by
railroaders. Too much change has to
be given. The issuance of $40 certifi-
Gates would entirely alleviate evil con.
ditions as were experienced by mer-
chants this month.

The Pennsylvania Road Has
Issued an Order to
This Effect.
DONE TO PREVENT WRECKS
OLD CARS ARE BEING REPAIRED
INSTEAD OF BURNED-WANT
SMALLER CERTIFICATE IN
PAY-OTHER RAILROAD NEWS.

Following the precedent of past
years, the Pennsylvania has given in
structions to keep the smaller box cars
off the main lines of the system, plac-
ing them in service on the branch
roads. To the ordinary mind, there
seems TO be no good reason why this
policy should be carried out, but rail
road officials assert that the reason the
ruling was made is a good one. Small
cars are harder to handle properly on
the main lines in conjunction with the
larger ones. and frequently they are
the cause of accidents which blockade
traffic for several hours, condition
which all officials are fighting against
at the present time for the reason Of
the very heavy travel. One hours
loss of time means much to the rail
roads, who have at present an i'm
mense amount of freight to handle.
And again, officials are expecting much
more traffic as soon as the present fl
nancial crisis passes. To handle this
immense amount of freight, every pre-
cautionary measure known in the rail
road vocabulary will have to be
brought into play. The slightest hitch
may mean freight congestion.
BY placing the smaller cars on the
branch lines of the system, the road
does not handicap shippers, as they
do not generally require the largest
cars now in use. In connection with
the freight car proposition, the Penn
| sylvania has issued an order to burn
all smaller freight cars which are worn
| out 1t is estimated in Richmond that
last year the big corporation burned at
least 10000 cars. This year. however,
but few cars have been destroyed.
Wherever it is possible to repair them
| the road is doing SO.

PREDICTS GOOD YIELD

State EntomoIogist Douglass
Is Very Hopeful.
DEPENDS ON THE WEATHER

B. W. Douglass, state entomologist,
says the indications are for an unus.
ually good yield OF fruit OF all kinds
in Indiana next year. Only weather
conditions, he says, will prevent a
good fruit yield. An early freeze Or
warm weather next spring followed
by freeze might play havoc with the
fruit, but unless there are some such
weather conditions the yield will like
" be above the average. This year
the fruit yield was a failure. The
failure was due to different conditions
in different parts of the State. In the
northern part OF the State an early
freeze last fall caused the failure. In
the southern part of the State warm
weather in the spring followed by a
freeze. caused the failure

THE BRADLEY CASE.

Neither charitably inclined people
nor cynically inclined people can af-
ford time to waste sympathy on Mrs
Bradley, the woman who is being
tried at Washington for the murder of
former Senator Brown. The facts OF
the case brought out by the trial show
that despite the tears and peniteIt at
tltude of the defendant, she was moth
ing more or less than kept woman"
who, in acknowledging her great love
for the senator. shows that that love
was nothing but an unholy love or
rather lust; that she betrayed the
love and faith of her husband and
children and broke up the family of
Senator Brown. Her claim that she
sought to persuade the senator to
break off their relations time and
again and return to his family sounds
absurd in the face Of the fact that she
lived with him on terms Of the ut
most intimacy for a period of ten
years, during which time both she and
the senator were arrested twice and
tried for their unholy way of living.
Her last act as a free woman, the muir
der of her paramour, has been the act
of too many fallen women before her
and she should pay the penalty exact
ed by the law of the land for commit
ting murder.

FEELING OF OPTIMISM.

With the possible exception of grain
transportation companies are moving
freight at a normal rate and even
grain is beginning to employ their few
cars which were temporarily idle.
The sluggishness Of grain is, in
many cases. not due to congestion in
elevators, but to the fact that the
thrifty and plethoric farmer is hold
ing the product in his bins awaiting
an upward movement of the market,
thing he Is amply able to do since
he does not need the money and can
therefore afford to speculate a little.
Travelling freight agents are unit
in the general feeling of optimism.

Terrible Liquor Craving
How Orrine Destroys all Desire

The terrible craving for liquor is a

A comparison has recently been made
of the power of the lights in French
light houses in various periods in the
last thirty-five years. In 1874, when
only oil lights were used, the highest
power was equal to $1,000 candles. In
1882 when the electric light was intro
duced the power rose to a maximum of
500, 600 candles. Since then frequent
improvements have been made in the
electric lights until at present. the
most powerful light houses project an
illumination nearly anual to 100000
candles.

The second eyesight test for the

be conducted the latter part of this
month. Employees, particularly train
men and enginmen, will receive the
test. The first test given some time

the fact that traffic was SO heavy the
men were kept constantly busy handl-
ing it, that they had no time to sub

RUFF ADMITS He IS GUILTY
HE HAD SiNNED IN BEHALF OF
POLITICAL MACHINE.
Said to Have Been Broker Between
Public Service Corporation and
Board OF Supervisors.

San Francisco, May Pleading
that he had sinned in behalf of great
political machine, which it was his
province to build in the interest of the
friends he represented, Abraham Ruef,
fallen political boss and formerly
campaign manager for Mayor Eugene
Schmitz, faced the court and in a
broken voice pleaded guilty to the
charge of extortion He is still under
indictment for bribery in connection
with his alleged campaign methods.
List of Indictments.
OF the siXty-three counts of bribery
against Ruef, seventeen were in con-
nection with the granting of the over
head trolley franchise to the United
Railroad company Immediately after
the disaster of April, 1906. Seventeen
were based upon the money alleged to
have been spent by the gas company
to secure an S5-cent gas rate as
against 75-Cent rate; thirteen relat-
ed to the passing of money by the
Home Telephone company to obtain a
franchise for bid of $4,000, and
which it had been declared was worth
at least $1OOO,OO0, and eighteen in
dictments were based upon the alleged
bribing of supervisors by Ruef to grant
fight permits only to the soCalled fight
trust OF this city, which is composed of
Eddie Graney, Morris Levey, James
COffroth and Willis Britt.
The money in all these cases was
charged to have been handled by Ruef.
who, according to Heney and Burns,
was the agent and broker between the
public service corporations and board
Of supervisors, and sort of general
distributing agent for all who desired
privileges from the supervisors.
Judge COffey fixed the bail at $4,000
on each indictment, or a total of
100000 for Ruef.
