The mystery in connection with the al

Arritt reached the city last night, but
has not been near his store or his as
signee, Charles Barclay. Ills presence did
not become generally known until to-
night A reporter called at the house
tonight and was informed by Mrs. Ar

had gone to Norfolk, and she did not
know when he would be back.
This afternoon w G. Stuart and w. 3B.
Coonna, attorneys representing creditors,
filed petition to have him placed in
bankruptcy. This proceeding probably
will clear up the affair. 1t is claimed
that Arritt's Indebtedness amounts to
only $1,000 and that his stock of iewelry
is worth $4,000 He claims't that on Christ
mas night the safe in his store was hob

blown UP by dynamite. The man was
engaged In thawing several sticks of

most unwisely attempted to extlngush

workman, who realized the danger,
shouted at him to stop, but had hardly
gotten the words out of his mouth when
the explosion occurred. The arms and

Reversed Conditions.


The meeting was held in the corpora-
ton Commission courtroom, and a splen-
did audience greeted the speakers.
Or. Knapp. repres sentative of the United
States Department of Agriculture, who
has made such a splendid success wifi,
demonstration farms. and almost revo-
lutionized agriculture in Louisiana and
Texas. was the first speaker.
He told how he had gone to Texas i'm
the midst OF the boll-weevil ravages and
when farmers In the cotton regions were
drawing rations from the government,
and through the agency of these demon.
stration farms taught them bow to raise
cotton, Notwithstanding this destroying
insect.
Twenty years ago In Louisiana, ne
said. lands had been sold for 20 cents
per acres, and now, as result OF dem
onstration farms, these same lands could
not be purchased for $50 per acre.
The address of DIR. Knapp was full
OF interest and it so captivatcd his
hearers that they at once Instituted u
move for the establishment OF suctt
farms in Virginia and it is thought that
several will be in operation in n very
short while.
The farms when established, Will
likely be In charge of Mr., T. o. Sandy,
of Burkeville, and will be under the Joint
direction of the State and United States
Departments of Agriculture.
DR.. Pages Address.
DIR. Page followed. and his remarks
We're warmly received. The speech of the
distinguished editor was a strong plea for
the training of boys and girls for doing
things thoroughly.
He declared that labor must be digni-s
fled through training. You have not one
half enough carpenters and brcklayers In
Richmond. and those you have are not
as good as they ought to be-" he con-
tinued.
1T is in Massachusetts to-day one OF
the greatest questions. Where are YOU
going to get the skilled labor that you
must have?
1T is even worse in New York. and
worse yet in the Middle West.
''rhe record OF industry in NIassachu-a9
setts and elsewhere shows that If men
of the kind who go into law and other
professions We're to go into carpentry aud
other trades. these trades would become
more profitable. and they would stand
as high in public esteem as the learned
professions stand to-day.
