A mass meeting of citizens which
embraced the larges! crowd ever az
sembled In the Academy of Music, in
Richmond, was held last night for the
purpose of frustrating the anticipated
movement on the part of the Anti
S lloou League of Virgins, to force q
ocal option election upon Richmond.
The crowd was enthusiastic. The fol-
loving is a pertinent section of the reso'
luton adopted.
"Resolved, That it is the opinion
of those here assembled that aDy al

bring a dog into dressing rooms.
One of the actors who played a
minor part disobeyed this rule and
smuggled a little dog into his room.
This actor played the part of a peas
ant, and in the first act he went on
wearing short and curly red wig.
When he had done his stunt he went
to his room, and as he did not have to
go on again until the third act he took
off the hot and uncomfortable wig and
threw 1t on a chair Then he wan
dered into the wings to talk to some
other members of the company.
A moment or two before 1t was time
for him to go on in the third act he
went to the dressing room to put on
his wig. All he could find of 1t was
fragmentary scraps on the floor, his
dog having had such a good time with
the wig as a plaything that tn re was
little left of it. Expecting his call at
any moment, the dismayed actor flew
around looking for another d wig
The only one he could find was one
with hair so long that 1t came below
Ills shoulders.
In his desperation he put on this and
went on the stage, to the amazement
of Miss Adams and the amusement of
those of the audience who remembered
that on his previous appearance he
had had short hair. which had grown
very long in an incredibly brief time

GEMS OF THOUGHT
Home phone 40.

If these little sparks of holy fire
which l have thus heaped up together
do not give life to your prepared and
already enkindled spirit, yet they will
sometimes help to entertain a thought
to acuate a passion, to employ and
hallow fancy.-Jeremy Taylor.
Dispel that prophetic gloom which
dives into futurity, to extract sorrow
from days and years to come, and
which considers its own unhappy Wis
ions as the DEGREES of Providence. We
know nothing of tomorrow; our busi-
ness Is to be good and happy today
Sydney Smith.
Do you say, "But my will Is weak
and wavering!" Train your will, then,
till it becomes steady and strong, and
you will be surprised to find how soon
the act of willing develops the power
of willing.-W. F. Dawson.
