RAILROAD MEETING Charlotte Citizens Hold Meeting in In? terest of Subscription to New Line. (Special Dispatch to The Times.) CHARLOTTE COURTHOUSE, June large number of the repre? sentative, men from different sections of Charlotte county met here Saturday to consider the question of a subscription to the Farmvillc, Charlotte and James PJvcr Company. Mr. W. D.

Rice was Bind? chairman and Mr. G. Williams secretary. Mr. W.

The proposed new railroad will Start front some point in Buckingham county on Chesapeake and Ohio Rail? road and have its terminus In Danville. It will run through Buckingham, Prince Edward. Charlotte, Halifax and Pittsyl Tania counties.

the "Camille" is a tried and true friend of the leading lady of nearly every stock Company in existence. Since the play fell to be the property of tho stock man? ager it has served to make many famous locally, and to Clara Morris "Camille" has meant an international reputation. last night was possibly the tirst time the role of Armand Duval; Camille's lover, has centered the public's attention. Such was tho case, and the superb portrayal of Mr. Bennett accounts for it.

Mr. Gif fen this season has given Mr. Bennett many choice roles. He has accepted all, and in nono has lie failed. Some faltering in the delivery of his lines on the first night has been his only fault.

Last that was absent, and the actor mude, untouched by any other member of tho splendid company, a triumph that will not dim with time. His Armand paled all other roles with the brilliancy of its, conception and portrayal. In passive and in fiery moods, In moments or suspense and in moments of delight, Mr. Bennett was well-nigh? perfect, and held the audi? ence spell-bound. At the climax of tho fourth act, when Armand denounces the caprices of Camille, Mr.

Bennett was at his best, and seven curtain calls hardly sat the audience. Miss La Verne as "Camille" was clever in her own way. Personally, she is not an ideal Camille, and dramatically she failed to fill the woman of the world with the moods that her predecessors havw pi von the part. She seemed to lack the physical fervor, and missed the oppor? tunities to rise to the art so vividly ex? pressed by Mr. Bennett.

However, she wa.s a pleasing Camille, and she will be liked in the part. Mr. Dennett's De Varvlllo was rich in excellence, and the, actor made a. success well deserved. Mr.

King was splendid as Mons Duval. and gained the most favor he Iims received this season. Mrs. Brown a-s Mine. Prudence, Miss Brown as Olym? pe, and Mr.

Earlo Ryder as Clapton, wero excellent. Mr. Lamp' had a small part, as Gustave; as also did Misses Graveo and Deyo Scott as Nichette and Nannie, re? spectively. Tho play was elaborately staged, as is usual with a Giften production. On Thursday night the bill changes to "The Two Orphans." The first bill of the summer season at the Casino is a good one, and with good weather will serve as a magnet for tho thcatre-poers the rest of the week.

The bill is made up of well selected acts, well placed and well pleasing. There is a good blending of music, comedy and nov? elty, not too much of anything and with? out the least conflict in any point. There is pood music, good dancing, pood sing? ing and exceptionally good novelty. A good-sized audience; was present last night. The rain kept away as many more probably.

James Richmond Glenroy, the "man with the preen gloves," Is the feature card, and he Is as funny and as original as ever. He tells a. number of very funny stories and held the stapo and kept the people laughing for a quarter of an hour. Glenroy is a. favorite here, and many of his friends will greet him during the week.

Dawson and Booth present a very inter? esting and quite novel comedy and acro? batic number. Dawson is the master of roller skates. He performed some start? ling feats while mounted on roller stilts, and with the. assistance of bis attractive soubrette partner, made one of the hifs of the bill. Gypzene and Roma, in a dancing spectacular novelty, were not only original, but more than interesting.

One of the dun is a. clever little dancer, and a very pretty stage settinp is used. The other acts are clever. Morris and Bin In are good dancers and rather clever comedians: the. Vann Brothers make srood in an act of music and mirth; Val Veno Brothers scored nicely In an acrobatic number, and the Herald Square Quar? tette were entertaining in a sinpinp and comedy number.

The hill is really a clever one. The show is not a long one. and it Is certainlv one that is a pace? maker for what is to follow the rest of the season. There will be matinees Wed? nesday, Friday and Saturday. MAINLY ABOUT PEOPLE.

An alarm of fire was turned in from the box at Allen and inter's factory at 9 o'clock Sunday morning. No one knews what occasioned the alarm, as there was no fire. The opinion of those headquarters is that the. alarm was given by a grounded wire, occasioned by the high wind that prevailed at the time. The July number of "Hello.

CROXTON. June fliest Caroline horse show held under the man? agement of the Caroline Chapter of the Daughters of the Confederacy at Clilles burg, Saturday last, proved a most marked social and financial success.

There were forty-eight horses entered in the different exhioits, including fine specimens of horse flesh from adjoining counties as well as from Caroline. Tho behavior of the teams was most excellent, and most of the owners are to be complimented on the way the reins were handled. All of the first prizes were handsome and substantial, having been donated by friends of the chapter. The gathering numbered about four hundred people, and including the belles and beaux of the surrounding country. The exhibits were made without any delay, and while many of the decisions seemed peculiar to various horsemen in the audience, on the whole the utmost good feeling prevailed.

The evening was pleasantly spent, see? ing and hearing various songs and pic? tures presented by local talent A FISH STORY Shark Weighing Nine Hundred Pounds Caught in a Net. ATLANTIC CITY, Juno John Young, who probably knows more about sharks than nine men in ten, re? cently had an experience with one of these finny monsters which falls to the lot of few.

In the big doep water net, which is located about a mile out at sea, on a recent morning, there was found in the meshes a shark measuring twelve feet in length a weighing about 900 pounds. It took half a dozen sturdy fishermen to haul the monster into the boat. The big fellow threshed around at a fearful rate, and some of the men narrowly escaped being seriously injured by his tail and fins, which swept about furiously. a great deal of labor, the big was placed in the aquarium on the pier. As he re-entered the wa? ter he swam about with the rapidity of an express train.

Around and around he went. Then, aa if determined butt the side out of the tank, ho went over to the far end, and, putting all of his enormous energy into his lins, he struck out boldly for the opposite side of the tank. "Now he is trying to break his neck," said Captain Young, as the big fish tetched up against tho side. The force of the shock caused the tank to tremble. After rebounding several feet the fish rolled over on his back and remained motionless.

To all appearances ho was dead. Captain Young, who was anxious to save tho big fellow for exhibition pur? poses, hastily procured a pair of rubber boots, plunged into tho water, which Is several feet deep, and bogan rolling the fish and pressing his ribs, operating on him much after the methods employed by physicians to resuscitate persons who have been nearly drowned. In a few minutes he succeeded In inducing arti? ficial respiration, and in a short time the fish was swimming about as lively as a cricket. Thus it was that another life had been saved. Referring to the matter, Captain Young said: "Sharks are tender about the nose, and a.

good punch will paralyze them if it is delivered in that spot. This fellow came near killing himsef by butting against the side of the tank. No, I can't say that I actually believe that he attempted tn commit suicide. He just stunned himself, that was all, and I brought him around."

KING GEORGE GOUNTY In Interest of Methodist Orphanage. Lightning Kills Chickens. (Special Dispatch to The Times.) KING GEORGE.

Juno Paul Bradley, of West Norfolk, has been spending some days past in King George in the interest of the Methodist Orphan? age, now being erected in Richmond. He preached to a large congregation at Fletcher's Chapel Friday. A collection was taken up for the benefit of the or? phanage. During the afternoon children's day services were celebrated, and a most interesting programme carried out under the efficient superintendence, of Mr. Julian Pratt, of Fletcher's Chapel Sunday-school.

Rev. Mr. Bradley preached at 4 o'clock Friday afternoon at Trinity Church. During an electric storm a few days ago a hen-house belonging to Mr. William Inscoe.

PUBLIC OFFICIALS 1ST PAY FARE (Continued from First Page.) after the new instrument becomes ef? fective. It is said that the sergeant of a town in Southwest Virginia is also a there may be some test cases shortly detective in the employ of a certain rail? road, and he desires to konw if his case will come within the purview of the pass provision of the new Constitution. It seems to be tho better opinion that it will, and that all "officers," whatever collateral business they, may follow, must pay their fares The matter registering voters in this city under the new Constitution is al? ready being given some attention. It was stated yesterday by a mem? ber of tho board from Marshall Ward that The was considering the matter of suggesting that the fifteen days be so divided as to have the books "open for half of the time in August and tho other half in September or October.

The idea seems to bo that this plan will afford better opportunities for allowing all to register, as a great many voters will be out of the city from time to time during the summer, months. The ordinance af? fords the widest latitude for discretion on the part of the registrars, and the idea seems to be that they will exercise it in the way that will accomplish the best results. The hours fixed for cities is from noon until 9 o'clock P. while in the country districts the sche? dule is from o'clock A. M.

until sunset. Fifteen days are allowed for the regis? tration, but this may be extended in the discretion of tho County or Corporation Court. After twenty days' notice, printed in trhe papers, each board may begin its work any time after the new instru? ment becomes effective, which is July 10th. provided it shall be completed all over the State prior to October 20, 1902. The upshot of it will be that from about the last of July until fhe middle of October the registration will be in pro? gress in many sections of tha State.

M. 431 E. Broad St. trouble In getting the voters to register. It seems now practically settled that the new circuit judges provided by the amended and revised Constitution will be chosen at the July session of the Legis? lature.

Indeed, the pressure upon the members from the candidates and their friends is so heavy that it can hardly be resisted. Some pretty lights are looked for and a strong lobby will come in with tho advance guard of the Legislature about the 13th or 14th of July. Many of the present judges will be chosen without opposition, but in a number of the new circuits there will be spirited struggles. One of these is the which present as its candidates to the caucus Judge G. Taylor Garnett, of Mathews, and Hon.

Claggett B. Jones, Xuig and Queen. They are both popular and will have strong following among the members. In the Third Circuit Hon. Robert Turn bull, of Brunswick, Judge J.

T. West, of Sussex, and perhaps Judge Timothy Rives, of Prince George, will run. Judge W. R. Barksdale.

of the new Sixth, will likely have no opposition. In the Eighth, the candidates are Judge J. M. White, of Albemarle: Mr. Paul Pet tit and Judge W.

N. Wood, of Fluvanna. Conditions in the circuit are such as to practically insure Judge White's election. Hon. T.

Crump, of this city, will be chosen to succeed Judge B. R. Wellford, for the circuit composed of Richmond and Henrioo without opposition Judge George Anderson, of Alle ghariy; Judge of are running in Nineteenth, while Mr. James W. Marshall.

of Cralg, is being favorably mentioned by his friends. Other tights are developing and some live? ly times are. anticipated when the Legis? lature meets. Ex-Governor William E. Cameron, of Petersburg, came over from his home on private business yesterday.

He went immediately to the office of the Secre? tary of the Commonwealth and affixed his signature to the' new Constitution, which he had failed to sign hitherto on account of sickness, entailing his ab? sence from the f.nal session of the con? vention. Tho only Democrats who are now to sign are Senator C. Harding Walker, of Northumberland; Judge Thos. W. Harrison, of Winchester, and Delegate J.

W. Orr, of Ece. Senator Walker has been ill at his home, but is now much improved in health. He will sign when he comes over to attend the session of the Legislature in July. The other two delegates named will sign tho first time they are in the city.

They are given until August 1st to do so, and have both expressed their willingness and in? tention to sign. The ten Republicans who to sign are not expected to reconsider. The new instrument as engrossed and signed will shortly be. handsomely bound and will then be a paper well deserving a place in the archives of any State. Yesterday having been a.

fifth Monday, was an odd time for the politicians, as there were no county courts. But the candidates will "loosen up" for the fight next Monday, and will go after one an? other with renewed energy until the vari? ous contests are settled. Messrs. Glass and Claytor will meet at Chnriottc, while Captain Lamb and Mr. Wallace will go to Chesterfield on the following Monday.

The primary in the Fourth District is nxed for July 17th and will be the first trial of the new law in the State. All eyes are upon the old Fourth, therefore, not only because of the interest in the fight between Messrs. Lassiter and Southall, but be? cause the party leaders desire to see how the new plan will work out. The contests in all the four districts where fights are on are very interesting, and the results are being eagerly looked foi-ward to.

The negro man who had the difficulty with the conductor of the Norfolk and Southern train going to Virginia Beach Saturday, and fired into the crowd on the train after he got off, is dead from the injuries he received.

The difficulty occurred in Princess Anne county. A large bunch of carpenters arrK-ed here this morning, and more carpenters, non-union men, have to work. Sev? eral contractors seem to have a full com? plement of men. The plumbers are still out, but their rickets have been withdrawn, and they and the employers are in a good humor over the situation, although many of the itizens, whoso business is affected, are becoming tired of the strike and losing sympathy with the journeymen. The persistent reports that trouble is brewing between the contractors and the carpenters is damaging and untrue.

There were two Intensely privato fights on Sat? between two plumbers who quarreled and' another between two car? pet, ters. The latter were arrested and were fined in court this morning. With these exceptions there have been no evi INSTITUTE, Virginia Established in 1 dences of disorder, and they el8 not affect the general situation.

CITY COUNCIL EXPIRES. Tho terms of the members of the City Council end by limitation' at 12 o'clock to-night The terms of the new council men begin so soon as they are sworn in and meet. The terms of the chief of police, tho health officer and the captains of police and a number of sttbordinato officers also expire and their successors will be appointed by the incoming mayor, J. G. Riddick, with the approval of the City Council.

Consequently thero Is a great deal of interest and gossip about the successors. Dr. RiddicK having been a member of the old Board of Health with Dr. C. F.

Newbill, the present health commissioner, is expected by many friends to reappoint him. He has been an efficient officer and it was under him that tho smallpox was suppressed here two years ago. and that the whole Health and Sanitar.v Depart? ment was reorganized. The department has been notably efficient since then. Tho salary of tho office is $1,200, con? sequently, although it is laborious and rsponsible and takes a physician away from his practice, there are several who are supposed to bo willing to take it.

including Dr. L. C. Shepherd and Dr. L.

R. Chiles. There aro three members of the Board of Health: The mayor ex-officio. who selects a large number, and they to? gether select tho health commissioner, who must be a. physician.

Mayor Riddick has not indicated whom he will appoint In any of the positions, which will he vacant by expiration, but It is not ex? pected that he will make radical or many changes. But no doubt he will appoint his friends whenever he can. LAST MJOUtT OF STREET COMMITTEE (Continued from First Page.) city has ever employed." Colonel Cut? shaw responded feelingly. Mr. Mills, Captain Stratton, Mr.

Mr. Turpin sug? gested that ho "tell them about the time that he ran away from Stonewall Jack? son," Mr. Bahen brought down the as? semblage by replying that he "wasn't a fighting man in them days." He was too young, but the prowess of a brother in-law who served under Colonel Cut? shaw. supplied material for some warlike reminiscences. Mr.

Ruskell's speech was characterized by the eloquence that Is golden. Mr. Kingvind Mr. Mosby fol? lowed. By that time.

Mr. Bahen was prepared to deliver a second oration, in the course of which he. the break of the committee. He had fought for some the of the committee in the primary only to find after the primary that another battle was on in which other friends were to go down. "I don't know where I am," said Mr.

Bahen. "To relieve the gentleman. I will tell him he Ts on the Street Committee." very happily interjected President Turpin, the maker of tha as yet unannounced new committee list for the. Board. Mr.

Rahen tnanked but thought it was a serious thing, this thing of hav? ing new men on the committee. "They ain't had no experience. There ain't no way or. earth of telling how they are going to vote. I tell you it's a serious thing." Mr.Peters.

Mr. Glenn, Mr. Gibson, Mr. Burton and Mr. Whittet were happy in their post-prandial efforts.

One of the most interesting features of the evening was the presentation to Mr. Pollock by Major Allen on behalf of the members of The committee, of a hand? some gold Elks' watch charm. dren, but the interviews are of short du? ration. No matters of state or business are allowed to bo submitted to the King, who is also debarred from reading his correspondence. Neither Doctors Lak ing.

Barlow nor have left the palace since the operation, except for an occasional, hour." This statement was issued with the view of correcting the numerous un? founded stories published with circum? stantial detail, regarding what is al? leged to transpire In the sick-room. The cheerfulness of the public is apparently fully shared by the members of the royal family. The Prince of Wales went out riding this morning, and both he and the Princess witnessed from tho palace windows with evident interest a march past of the Guards. The Stock Exchange re-opened to-day with a very strong tone, on the satis? factory news regarding the King's con? dition. Consols rose seven-sixteenths.

Other departments reflected the improve? ment. With the view of recompensing the sight-secrs as far as possible for the disappointments of last week, the re? view of the colonial and Indian troops will bo accompanied by a certain amount of pageantry. The Queen's anxiety has been so much allayed that she definitely decided to-day to occupy the. first car? riage in the royal procession, in which other members of the royal family will participate, as well the foreign princes who are still in London. borough about the effigy, they fused to take any action.
