There were four little girls of the
city who were about the busiest people
in Richmond all day Saturday. none
of the larger merchants, excepted
These busy little misses were Maurine
and Mary Converse. Josephine Wilson

holding a market at the Dickinson
drug store for the benefit of the Y II
c. A, and to say that it was more than
successful, is putting the statement
mildly. as more than SO was realized
off the worthy venture.
Patrons were attracted by the bright
smiles of the busy little girls and
their business-like air. and their dain-
ties were sold as fast as they could be
brought to the market place. A win
dow space was cleared that the little
busy bodies might display their goods
but hardly had they placed an article
in the window before some one made
his way into the store and purchased
it. At noon the girls had sold COM
pletely out. and eager with the excite
ment OF the venture. and its great suc-
cess. they Immediately appealed 10

nearby exchange and bought enough
cakes. bread and dainties to tide the
girls over until their donations could
be collected. Twice they faced such
a business ruin. but always more and
larger donations came into their hands.
At four O'Clock they sat down. tired
and hungry. for after the press of the
great business, they realized that they
had forgotten to eat their dinners
They were about the happiest young
people Richmond has ever had the
honor of knowing, as they counted
the receipts of their business venture
1t was then only four O'Clock. Long
after their shelves were empty and the
little tots had wenGed their wav home
people flocked to the store TO buy of
them. only to be disappointed to find
that the little ladies had sold all their
wares so early.

Trip Made by Local Repre-
sentative of Gaar, Scott &
Company to Russia Proved
Highly Profitable.
NEW SCHEDULE PRAC-
TICALLY PROHIBlTlVE.
Discrimination Against Ameri-
can and English Machinery
In Favor of the German Pro-
duct Was Removed.

AS result of the recent business
Russia the exorbitant tariff rate on
American and English farming i'm
plements, which was placed in effect
several months ago, has been reduced
TO the normal figure and it is once
more possible for American and Eng
lish firms manufacturing farming inn
plements TO export their products to
Russia
Mr.. Strattan, who is secretary of
mond about ten days ago from his
European trip and he told his bust
ness associates and several other
business men of this city of his sue
cess in inducing the Russian govern
ment TO reduce its tariff rates on Am.
erican farming implements. An ef
fort was made Saturday to get an in
terview with Mr. Strattan but ii was
found that he is in Chicago on bust
ness.
Hiuh Rate Prohibitive.
1t is stated that on Mr.. Stra.tan's
arrival in Kief. Russia. he learned 70
his dismay that recent order of the
Russian tariff commission had nrac-
tically excluded American-made farm
ing machinery from being brought In
TO the country owing to the exceeding
~ high rate. A large shipment OF
Gaar. Scott & Co, threshers was en-
route TO Russia and if the high tariff
rate had to be paid on this machinery
II meant net loss of several thous-
ands of dollars TO the local concern.
Quick action was imperative. so Mr.
Strattan wired To the United States
ambassador at st. Petersburg and ask
ed for an appointment The ambas-
sador replied by wire, summoning Mr.
Strattan TO st. Petersburg
Rate Was Reduced.
He at once left on his 1.OOO mile trip
on fast" express train, which av-
eraged about % miles an hour. and
after tedious journey arrived in St
Petersburg, where he placed the case
in the hands of the American repre-
sentative. The ambassador secured
an interview with the Russian minis
ter of foreign affairs and after he had
been shown how unjustly the new
Russian tariff Disseminated against
American farm implement manufac-
turers the minister brought his in
fluence to bear in having the tariff
rate reduced materially 1t was dis
covered on investigation that the tar
iff revision was made with the end in
view OF placing the rate on American
and English farming machinery at
such an exorbitant figure as 10 pre-
vent the bringing of American and
English machinery into Russia No
discrimination was made against Ger
man made farm implements and ft
was found that German was one
of the members of the tariff commits
sion.

Police Decide to Close Down
On C!airvoyants. And 9th
erS in This Line.
STIFF LICENSE REQUIRED.
ONE ARREST WAS MADE THE
PAST WEEK, BUT THE VICTIM
WAS RELEASED AFTER BEING
DULY CAUTIONED.

The police have determined to en-
force an ancient city ordinance which
requires all clairvoyants, fortune tell
ers, ETC., who operate in this city to
pay a license fee of 81 a day, s25 a
week or s75 per month. These fees
are placed at such high rate as to
practically forbid the transaction OF
the business affe cted. The police be.
lieve this class of people to be frauds
and that their business is ilIegitimate
therefore the ordinance is TO be en-
forced from this time on.
Friday an old woman residing at the
Akron Hotel on North Tenth street
who has established quite a business
in the fortune telling line, was arrest
ed for violation of the ordinance and
taken to police headquarters She was
told by Prosecutor Jessup that she
must pay the required license fee or
find some other vocation.
The old woman insisted that she
was engaged in a legitimate business
and that the license fees We're exorbi-
tant. If | should predict that you
would be killed if you went automo-
bile riding and you took advantage of
my warning. I would be doing some
good-wouIdn't -" asked the aged for
tune teller THAT mat be so but re-
if you want TO tell fortunes
you must take out license" said the
prosecutor She was then released
with the tip that if she again violated
the ordinance she would be arrested
and fined in the city court.

Holtzapfel and Elmer Thomas. who
are now walking, or rather who
started to walk to the jamestown ex-
position two weeks ago The tele-
grams were received from Lynch
burg and they impaired the news
that Keneth Karns, one of the party,
is sick, due to the exposure which
the boys have encountered since they
started on their journey from this
city. Whether the boys wanted TO
return home or would continue their
journey. the kilograms did not state,
but the parents think the boys are
discouraged and home sick and want
TO get back TO dear old Richmond
The boys have written that during
their entire trip they have encounter

weather man sick of his job. while
the roads have been worse This ne

they only had a few dollars among
them this did not hold out long under
such circumstances. They have also
been required to sleep in hotels dur

unless he can get her away at once.
Evelyn is a wreck. 1t is confessed
that the greatest worry of the entire
Thaw family is for Evelyn's health.
Since uly Mrs. Thaw has wasted away
forty per cent and is now only a sha-
dow of herself If she should catch

would mean almost certain death.

Thaw will demand to be released on

She will stay in New York unless
Harry can accompany her Thaw's
defense find his anxiety for his wife's
health important.
Persons who do not look kindly to-
ward Thaw's defense are inclined to
think his anxiety regarding his wife
especially sudden and that the interest
shown by his relatives is a selfish
motive. They point out that the only
thing that gave Thaw ghost of
chance was Eyelyn's awful story.
Their opinion is that it will not take
the next jury long to decide and Thaw
will get the electric chair --a
