When Dr. Anna Shaw, president Of
the National Woman Suffrage assoc

The first four days of the most
orderly State fair ever held in Rich
mond have passed into history.
This Is the record made by the first
rdry' fair A fair which Governor
Stuart says that he is proud Of The
actual figures of arrests made for
drunkenness are even startling In
comparison with fairs in the past.
and according to Magistrate Smith
OF Henrico. who has sat in mis-
demeanor cases right on the fair
grounds for a number of years the
figures are not all.
"At all previous fairs ! have In
structed county officers to only arrest
for drunkenness when the person ar
rested was unable to care for himself.
Heretofore all minor cases of DRINKS.
Or persons Slightly intoxicated have
been haSldled by merely leading them
10 the gate, or refusing them admis-
sion to the grounds
This year I told all officers to ar
rest and bring before me any intoxi-
Gated persons found on the grounds.
