Miles was thrown from a new horse he
was riding in Potomac park last night.
One rib was broken. He received a
sight scalp wound and was bruised
somewhat on his shoulder and side 1t
is not thought that he suffered any in
ternal injuries.
When picked Up by. a policeman Cen
eral Miles was unconscious, but regain
ed his senses and refused to be taken
to a hospital, declaring he would go
to his apartments. The doctor who at
tended him said there was no cause for
alarm.
On account of his age. which is three
score and ten and his weight, friends
are apprehensive lest he may have suf-
fered more severely than is known.
After the general had ridden for
time on his accustomed horse, he took
from his groom and mounted one he
had never tried before. He had not
gone more than a quarter OF a mile
when the animal reared and threw him
heavily to the ground.

Record for the Past Eleven
Months Shows that Splen-
did Local Building Record
of 1909 Is Exceeded.
e558,932 IS TOTAL
SHOWN BY PERMITS
But, as Is Always the Case,
Valuation Of Buildings Are
Underestimated in Per-
mits-Fine Record.

With the exception of 1909, the
building of Richmond during the pre-.
sent year has already far surpassed
that of any other year in Ricbmonds s
existence OF "a century. reaching the
sum of 1868 .932, according to the build
ing permits taken out at the office
CT the city recorder the past Ia
months. However the tendency is to
under value building costs In securing
permits. According to Il. G. McMa.
han. city controller. the total building
costs for II months of 1910 is between
s6OO.OOO and 100000.
Last year large improvements, such
rs the new high school, erected at n
cost OF almost $250,000. the Catholic
church at cost Of about $4,000 and
several large factory buildings brought
up the total to large figure. but this
years building record will even sur
pass that of 1909 though only by few
thousand dollars.
The big improvements for 1910 fol.
1ows:
Improvement In 1910.
First National bank, Eighth and
Main streets. 100000.
Richmond Underwear factory, Tenth
and North d streets, 100000.

A streets. $4,000.
Starr Piano Co.. office building,
South First and A streets. $4,000.
American Seeding Machine Co., fac
tory. North Thirteenth and r. streets,
& .ooo.
Many small houses and buildings
costing from $1,000 to $1,000, were
erected In all parts OF the city this
year. West Richmond stands far ahead
Of any other section OF the city in
the number Of houses erected, al.
though houses in that district were
not SO costly as buildings in the east
end of the city. Next to West Rich
mond, ranks the southeastern section
Of Richmond, where many fine houses
have been built during the year.
May proved the banner month for
taking out building permits. In that
month permission WAS granted for the
erection of $145.795 worth Of property.
In the early part Of the month per-
mits were issued to the American
Seeding company for the erection Of
its $4,000 factory building. and to the
Starr Piano company for constructing
$4,000 ONCE building. June was
a close second with $126,270. In Feb

That the bright lights of winters

cling to the false belief that want and
suffering and poverty have no place
in the homes of this city. Salvation

ers, will promptly show the falacy Of
such near-sighted views if inquiries are
made of them.
we have been awful busy the last
few days, said Captain Deuter this
morning. AS usual the cold wave has
caught many people unprepared and
they are asking for assistance. We
do not pay much attention to the shift
less class. The Army confines its
charity to those who deserve and will
say We have been busy l mean we
have had many calls from worthy peo-
pie. victims of circumstances, not of
their own making"
How many homes do you know OF
where there is actual suffering?" he
was asked.
There Are Thirty Gases.
''Thirty,'' he replied promptly

fined to his bed for six weeks, asked
