"The Finest" Came Out Bet
ter Thursday Night Than
Any Previous Time.
ATTENDANCE VERY LARGE.
THERE WERE MANY DANCERS AS
WELL AS A LARGE NUMBER OF
SPECTATORS THE DECORA-
TIONS A FEATURE.

The fifth annual ball of the Rich
mond police department, held Thurs
day evening at the coliseum, was a
success in every respect. Financially
speaking, the police charity fund was
materially increased. Socially speak
ing. everyone of the four hundred
dancers thoroughly enjoyed themselves
while the four or five hundred specta-
tors in the balcony and gallery had an
equally good time watching the gay,
animated scene
Promptly at 8 o'clock the Runge or
chestra struck up a lively march, to
the tune Of which sixteen stalwart po-
lice officers, two abreast. marched up
on the floor The Finest" were
greeted with applause The dancers
began to flock upon the floor and in
two minutes time one hundred and
ten couples had formed in line back
of the policemen. They started the
grand march, winding lines of human
| ity. weaving in an out, here and there
until the spectators were almost be-
wildered wondering how the police
men and their young friends would
ever get Strengthened out The march
| finally came to a close by the sixteen
patrolmen marching down the floor in
one solid, though somewhat crooked
| line, followed by the two hundred and
| twenty dancer also sixteen abreast.
Just as the officers reached the east
| end of the floor the line suddenly wa
vered, then broke. and in the twinkling
of an eye the dancers were gliding
about to the strains of a happy 60
lucky two-step. From that time to a
wee sma' hour. there were two-steps
and waltzes galore.
All day Thursday Sergeant McManus
and Officers Staubach and Winters la
bored at the coliseum, preparing the
decorations Their work was not in
vain, as the interior of the big build
| ing certainly presented an attractive
appearance. Chief Bailey Thursday
evening, was out in all the glory of his
sassy blue uniform, while the gilt
cheverons on the arms Of Sergeant Nc
Manus flashed dazzling rays in the
eyes of the onlookers and dancers All

ed greatly to their bewitching appear
ance. At the request of the members
of the police department. all members
of the local craft of law-breakers were
complimented for being good Thurs
day night and not disturbing the pa
trolmen.

LONDON USES MUCH WATER.
Enough in One Year to Float the
Navies of the World.

1t has been calculated that if a els
tern covering $50 acres and 345 feet
high could be constructed and the wa
ter supply of London for one year
turned into it, the warships Of all
the worlds navies could ride at an
Choir there. The figures are given by
Tit-Bits. 1t adds: IF we now dig
a canal 100 feet wide across Europe,
from the extreme north to the south,
and empty our cistern into it, we shall
find that the water in our canal, which
is 2,400 miles long, will rise to a uni
form height of ten feet Every drop
of 1T is consumed by the inhabitants
of Greater London within a year.
while each man, woman and child
living &c day throughout the world
could draw so gallons from it without
exhausting its contents. The mains
through which these hundreds OF mil
lions Of tons of water flow for the
use Of London are almost long enough
to stretch a quarter Of the way around
the earth at the equator, while i
would take a locomotive, travelling a
the rate Of Sc miles an hour. more
than four days and nights to race
from one end of them 10 the other.

ALWAYS TRUST THE GIRLS.
stenographers VIII Spurn Brides
Rather Than Betray Secrets.

Not long ago a Kansas City stenog-
rapher learned that the railroad for
which she was working had deter
mined to extend its line. She had
a friend living in the town through
which the line was TO run. A let
ter to him, with her savings. would
have enabled him TO buy at a low
price the land the road needed, and
the peculiar nature of the ground in
that neighborhood would have en-
abled him TO sell at a great profit.
She did not consider the thing more
than minute. and then decided that
it would be dishonorable thing to
do Another stenographer in a large
real estate office became aware OF
deal in which $4,000 was involved.
Certain information she possessed
would be worth thousands 10 the other
parties. They made a few advances
and limited at rewards as high as
$4,000 for her betrayal of her firm.
She Indignantly refused, and told her
employers of the scheme Another
stenographer was offered 81 900 for
copies OF three letters which she had
written. A lawsuit in which her en-
ployers were involved might have
gone against them had the opposing
party been able TO secure the in
formation contained in the three let
tiers. The lawyer for the other side
laid ten 500 bills on her mothers
table and told her they were hers for
the permission to read the letters.
The girl scorned the offer.

DANGEROUS THINGS TO HAVE
Married Man Carried Too Much Cir
cumstantial Evidence.

II probably never enters the minds
of most people how perfectly inno-
cent a man may be and yet lay him
self open TO suspicion through no fault
of his own J. c. Linton, a Chicago
guest at the St Denis hotel, gives a
good instance of this, says the New
York Press. If / Happened 20 be
found dead in my room just now"
said he. in one Of my pockets would
be discovered the photograph Of a
very pretty actress and in my valise a
half dozen pairs of womens silk
stockings, a woman's solid gold
chain, wrist bag and a large pearl hat
pin. All these thingsI don't include
the photographer for my wife, but
she doesn't know it. Now. If I were
to die here she would, womanlike,
come TO the conclusion, on finding
these feminine things IN my bag, that
l the scoundrel, had played her false.
The result would be she would simply
waste the rest of her days IN trying
/ to unearth the supposed wife No. 2.
/ Anyhow. l guess III tear the photo
/ graph up; it's a particularly danger
/ Gus thing for a married man to have
in his possession"

Hint For VacatIonjsts,

1t is not generally known, says the
Hospital Review, that flies and mos
Qutoes dislike the odor of lavender.
A teaspoonful of oil of lavender
to which is added enough alcohol to
make saturated solution, sprayed
around the room and on the bedding
will effectively keep away flies and
mosquitoes while the odor of lavender
is pereeptTble.
