By NATHANIEL O. FOWLEK, Jr.-fcketcb. No. Ô, A while ago I was asked to speak be¬ fore the memoers of one of the largest organizations of women. I chose for my subject "Home-Buyers," and as nearly as I can remember, this Is what I said: "Dear Women;.I don't call you ladles. God mad the woman. The cook-lady and the scrub-lady were made ;iftei warJs. "You love the town of your birth, or the town of your adoption. Tou magnify its advantage«, and you belittle Its dis¬ advantages. If you don't respect your town nobody else will respect It. "No woman Is half a woman unless there is engraven upon the looking glass of her m nd that patriotic motto of local progiesslon: "My Town First; Other Towns After¬ wards." "You are the owners of your town. Man may think that he is monarch of all im can survey, but ho isn't, "You may not vote, but when you want to vote, all the men In Christendom will be but bubbles on the sea of politics. "He wno woud board the lion In his den, who would press h-s finger upon the but¬ ton of tiade that business may Jingle when he connects the wires, who would smoke his cigar before the all-rendy-to- smoke mouths of many cannon, dares not face hla wlfe-of-over-a-year, wearing tho second pair of trousers made by the tail¬ or who does not fit him to suit her. "The mother of cieat.on Is the buyer of creation's necessities. "Without dep, eclating the great me¬ chanical and financial Interests of the country, 1 will make the surprising, and yet positively true, statement, verified by the unlmpeachnblo statistics of the world, tnat the larger part of the product of the earth, and of machinery, is Intended for the ¡nslde and outside of tho human body, und Is used In the economy, comfort, and luxury of home-living. "Woman controls the family. She Is the rjueon of the home, the home-ma-.er or the home-breaker, the captain of tho house, and the naturally elected buyer. "Woman, not man, holds trade In the hollow of her hand. "Eighty por cent- of the advertisements In your newspapers, In your magazines, und In your family papers, aro written for the eyes of women and announce goods used by women and purchased by women. "The woman buys for herself, for the children, and for every member of tho household. "There Isn't a manly man entirely wo- maniese: If the man Is wifeless, and la not arranging for a wife, he is living un¬ der the Influence of come female.his mother, his aunt, his Bieter, or sombody'e «..if: sister. "The women of your town as well ae the men of your town make the business of your town. "Within the woman is the power to make or break a town. "Unless the town be merely a sub¬ urban bedroom, its character is reckoned by Its business. "A town with a thousand thousand-dol¬ lar families is ten times more progressive than a town of a dozen millionaires. "In tho circularon of money, not in th6 storing of money, is the use of money. "The rapid, bealiurul. vigorous circula¬ tion of money is aa necessary to the strength of the town as la the circula¬ tion of the blood necessary to the well- being of the body. "Show me th* business street o. a town, and I will tell you the slnrcrty of its churches, the size of its libiar.es, the breadth of Its tclioolü, and the character of Its people. "The buMnesa street Is the giant artery of the system pf progression. "Not the factories of your town, not the rnllroads of your town, not the In¬ stituí ons of your town, not the popu¬ lation of your town make your town, al¬ though they all help, in local home» business Is local progression, "Where there la progressive local busi¬ ness liiere Is available money for bettor churches, better librarlos, Letter schools, and boiler everything. "Annihilate local business, or etunt Its growth, and there comes a depression that depresses everything, even to civilization. "In yourd hands resta Ilio fate of your town. As you will It, so will it bo. "Head your local impels. Ji's your duly to know what Ib going on about you. "Rend the advertisements of your local stores. "Keep posted on the business of your town, well a* upon the social functions. "Many a good thing Is lost to tho wo¬ man who does not regularly read the advertisements. "I am aware that some stores mitren. resent In their adveni&tng, and I also know that you can get cheated at the etore» that don't advertise. "All thlnge considered, the store which warn» your trade enough to lnvlt« you to give It to It, Is the safest and best gtort to trade »\ and this itore advertliea, "Tho store that advertises is the store that is known, and the store that le known and the store that the trade goes to la the store that does the business, and the store that does the business Is tho store that cannot" afford to cheat. "There Is safety is publicity. "The store that doesn't want your trade enough to ask for It. most likely doesn't deserve to have your trade, and that is the store that doesn't adverUee. "Patriotism is not all In rallying around the flag. In singing the "Star 8pangled Banner," In the tone of the trumpet, or in the roll of the drum. All these things glorify, but the brilliancy of tho halo of their glory Is dependent upon the back¬ ground of hard reality. "So long as there 1* .money there must be business, and the business of a town is the maintaining element of comiort and progress. "The town ie. yours. Ite health, its business, its bornee, its schools, ita pros¬ perity, await your action. & LEADERS IN BàBE FUBIPiflíiíí. There is a vast difference between "Business Flat" and "Flat Business."

SYDNOR & HUNDLEY, 700.?-13 e, Broad St, PREDICTS A POOR TOBACCO CROP [Mr. Silas Shelburne Talks After Making an Extensive Trip Over the State. Mr. Sllfte Shelburno, who has traveled over a largo part of tho tobaeoo belt. In nil tho counties nrotiml <ho olty, asked yesterday regarding tho tobacco crop, said: "The section eouth of the James River and north of It, Including the cotintlee of Fluvanno, Albomatlo end Orango, where the bulk of tho dark EngHeh stripping leaf Is made, has Ices than half a crop. Tho prices last year on tide class of tobacco wcro bo low that tho people were forced/ to cut the crop. "I talked w*th a number of good planters who'kept an account of their labor, and these report that they did not make ten cents per day. and a great many of thorn did not make much more than enough to pay for their fertiliser "The present crop wae planted late, and, having too much rain, a large part of it latita body, and, being thin and light, will make a small yield to the acre, ano* will only make oornmon snuffers and common export filiere, which are now selling ??ß-iourth under last year's price». So it Is very evident, unless there le a big advance in the leaf gradee, the tobacco crop will be almost abandoned In this section. "The crop In the eun-cured belt le aleo light weight, and will not make over three-fourths of laet year's crop. A good part of It wee planted late, and le thin and ha* cured dark. The early planting Is bright and eweet, and wUl make a fine chew, end will no doubt be all .wanted, but the present prices «eem to be very uneatlefaotory to the planters, who are holding meetings snd agreeing among themeelvee to ralee other pro¬ ducts and cut off their tobacco crops. There eeoms to be no deposition what¬ ever to plant another crop, and untóse there is a big change In prices between now and the Urne to burn plant beds, ¦which Is in January and the firet of February, there will certain'? be little preparation made for another crop. No planter will now hire labor to plant a tobacco crop. A great number of the laboring class are leaving their farine, as they can get employment In the eitlen and upon the railroad? that ;+mi them much better than mak #; tobacco.r "The aun-curéd fe u very expensive crop, as It roqulres so much handling and takes 80 much room. Besides, it is so hard to keep from damaging thata great many planters will not make It" Mr- Sholburne'n opinion la that the tobacco crop over the State, and. In fact, over the entire tobacco belt, is wanting in body, and will be much short in weight of what was expected. The big Butler & Bosher branch plant of the Continental Tobacco Company, which has bean closed on account of getting in new machinery, will start up to-morrow morning with a large force of hands.

Young Mon¬ roe attended William and Mary College, and soon after served In the Revolu¬ tionary war with such zeal that General Washington made blm a colonel. During the closing years of the war bs studied law under Thomas Jefferson and won the great man's confidence and esteem. This .was shown In later years. A short while before bis, election as one of Virginia's representatives In the United States Sen¬ ate Colonel Monroe met Miss Kortrlght, of New York, In a reasonable time they were married and took up their residence at "Oak Hill," In Loudoun county, They had tw0 children, both girls. Eliza Monroe was born In 1790, at Oak Hill. When she wa* four years old her father, then a member of the United States Senate, was appointed min. inter plenipotentiary to France, Upon tha nomination of his friend, Mr, Matll- aon, he wns elected Governor of Virginia and came back to assume ths duties of that office. In 1808 Mr. Jefferson sent him as minister extraordinary to the imperial court of the great Napoleon, and lie it was who negotiated the pur¬ chase of tho Louisiana territory, the annexation of which will be celebrated by the world's fair at St. Louis next .year. While living abroad EHzn Mon¬ roe wns put In a Frenoh school. Then· she leirned, bebidos her books, to love beautiful France and the aristocratic ways of the imperial capital. That love nevar loft her, and French Influence was deslln.id to stir Washington society to Kr depths when, as a youn woman, she was virtually mistress of tho White House- Loved Virginia. It was while tho father was abroad on this patriotic errand tljat Maria Mon¬ roe, the second daughter, was born, thirteen years after her siater saw the light. Interesting it is to note that, though^ bom In Parle, loved Virginia very dearly. Old Dominion, Eliza never loved Vir¬ ginia or her native land. The land of her childhood, rather than the lanj of tier nativity, wa· her first and last Jove. She went back to Paris when an old worum and died. It would doubtless have b«en her wish that her dujt should mingle with the soil of the beloved France, and it was so. They put her to rest in Pere-la-Cbais* Cemetery, aod there she sleeps to-day, and will «leap uutll the last trump shall sound. On the othor hand, Maria, who was born In Pari«, loved Virginia vrey dearly. Her« was a disposition very different from that of her sister, e ho was loving and gentle, where tho first-born wa« cold and Imperious. 80 great Was her love for old Virginia, though she died in New Tork, whlck was ber home dur¬ ing tho closing years of her life, they brought her body to Oak Hill and placed It beeide her mother In the family bury¬ ing ground. And these are the two lonely graves which will be opened Tuesday, after being closed for more than halt a century, 1 ElUa Monroe married George Hay. who was a resident of Richmond for a number of years. He was United State« attorney for the district of Virginia un¬ der Mr. Jefferson in IS07. tU>i Aaron Burr, Jefferson's hatod rival, and some¬ time Vice-President of the United State«, was tried In this city for high treason against the government. He wa«, there¬ fore, prosecuting attorney in the case, helnir aided by William 'Wirt, author of the Hie of Patrick Henry, and on· of the foremost lawyers of his day, and by Mr. Alexander McRao. sometlm· T.leutonant-Govemor of Virginia. Mr. FTay once owned probably the entire block on which now stands ~St. Paul'· Church, having bought It from Bushrod Washington, nephew of General Wash¬ ington, Marrifd at White House. Maria Monroe married Samuel I* Gouverneur,' who she met while he wa« private secretary to her father during his presidency. She was tho first daughter of a President to be married In the White House. At tho same time John Qulncy Adams was Secretary of State. Ho and the President's non-ln-law be¬ came fast friends. When Adnms became President ho appointed Gouverneur post¬ master of New York city. Thie was how the GouvernourH came to live In New York, and when Monroe was old and almost penniless ho went to Uva with hi» beloved daughter. In 18.10 Mrs. Monroe died and wa* burled at Oak Hill. On tho Fourth of July. 1831, Monroe died In the Gouver¬ neur home, and his body was placed with groat pomp and coromony in a hired vault in Marble Cemetery. Twenty-seven years lntpr it was brought to Richmond, and, with oven more elaborate cere¬ mony, burled five fcet beneath the soil of Hollywood. The remains were brought here on the eteamer "Jamestown," and the famous Seventh Reg'^ «uixof New York, aa the escort of honor, followed on the Erlccson. Rev, Charles H, Read, pastor of the United First Presbyterian Church, con¬ ducted tho devotional exercises at the grave, and Governor Henry A. Wise delivered a brilliant eulogy. VIRGÏNIA COTTON.

Pertinent Shopping Points Interesting to Women.By NATHANIEL O. FOWLEK, Jr.-fcketcb. No. Ô,

A while ago I was asked to speak be¬fore the memoers of one of the largestorganizations of women. I chose for mysubject "Home-Buyers," and as nearlyas I can remember, this Is what I said:"Dear Women;.I don't call you ladles.

God mad the woman. The cook-lady andthe scrub-lady were made ;iftei warJs."You love the town of your birth, or

the town of your adoption. Tou magnifyits advantage«, and you belittle Its dis¬advantages. If you don't respect yourtown nobody else will respect It."No woman Is half a woman unless

there is engraven upon the looking glassof her m nd that patriotic motto of localprogiesslon:"My Town First; Other Towns After¬

wards.""You are the owners of your town.

Man may think that he is monarch of allim can survey, but ho isn't,"You may not vote, but when you

want to vote, all the men In Christendomwill be but bubbles on the sea of politics."He wno woud board the lion In his den,

who would press h-s finger upon the but¬ton of tiade that business may Jinglewhen he connects the wires, who wouldsmoke his cigar before the all-rendy-to-smoke mouths of many cannon, dares notface hla wlfe-of-over-a-year, wearing thosecond pair of trousers made by the tail¬or who does not fit him to suit her."The mother of cieat.on Is the buyer

of creation's necessities."Without dep, eclating the great me¬

chanical and financial Interests of thecountry, 1 will make the surprising, andyet positively true, statement, verified bythe unlmpeachnblo statistics of the world,tnat the larger part of the product of theearth, and of machinery, is Intended forthe ¡nslde and outside of tho human body,und Is used In the economy, comfort, andluxury of home-living."Woman controls the family. She Is

the rjueon of the home, the home-ma-.eror the home-breaker, the captain of thohouse, and the naturally elected buyer."Woman, not man, holds trade In the

hollow of her hand."Eighty por cent- of the advertisements

In your newspapers, In your magazines,und In your family papers, aro writtenfor the eyes of women and announcegoods used by women and purchased bywomen."The woman buys for herself, for the

children, and for every member of thohousehold."There Isn't a manly man entirely wo-

maniese: If the man Is wifeless, and lanot arranging for a wife, he is living un¬der the Influence of come female.hismother, his aunt, his Bieter, or sombody'e«..if: sister."The women of your town as well ae

the men of your town make the businessof your town."Within the woman is the power to

make or break a town."Unless the town be merely a sub¬

urban bedroom, its character is reckonedby Its business."A town with a thousand thousand-dol¬

lar families is ten times more progressivethan a town of a dozen millionaires."In tho circularon of money, not in

th6 storing of money, is the use of money."The rapid, bealiurul. vigorous circula¬

tion of money is aa necessary to thestrength of the town as la the circula¬tion of the blood necessary to the well-being of the body."Show me th* business street o. a town,

and I will tell you the slnrcrty of itschurches, the size of its libiar.es, thebreadth of Its tclioolü, and the characterof Its people."The buMnesa street Is the giant artery

of the system pf progression."Not the factories of your town, not

the rnllroads of your town, not the In¬stituí ons of your town, not the popu¬lation of your town make your town, al¬though they all help, in local home»business Is local progression,"Where there la progressive local busi¬

ness liiere Is available money for bettorchurches, better librarlos, Letter schools,and boiler everything."Annihilate local business, or etunt Its

growth, and there comes a depression thatdepresses everything, even to civilization."In yourd hands resta Ilio fate of your

town.As you will It, so will it bo."Head your local impels. Ji's your

duly to know what Ib going on about you."Rend the advertisements of your local

stores."Keep posted on the business of your

town, a« well a* upon the social functions."Many a good thing Is lost to tho wo¬

man who does not regularly read theadvertisements."I am aware that some stores mitren.

resent In their adveni&tng, and I alsoknow that you can get cheated at theetore» that don't advertise."All thlnge considered, the store which

warn» your trade enough to lnvlt« youto give It to It, Is the safest and best gtortto trade »\ and this itore advertliea,

"Tho store that advertises is the storethat is known, and the store that leknown and the store that the trade goes tola the store that does the business, andthe store that does the business Is thostore that cannot" afford to cheat."There Is safety is publicity."The store that doesn't want your trade

enough to ask for It. most likely doesn'tdeserve to have your trade, and that isthe store that doesn't adverUee."Patriotism is not all In rallying around

the flag. In singing the "Star 8pangledBanner," In the tone of the trumpet, orin the roll of the drum. All these thingsglorify, but the brilliancy of tho halo oftheir glory Is dependent upon the back¬ground of hard reality."So long as there 1* .money there must

be business, and the business of a townis the maintaining element of comiort andprogress."The town ie. yours. Ite health, its

business, its bornee, its schools, ita pros¬perity, await your action.

PREDICTS A POORTOBACCO CROP

[Mr. Silas Shelburne Talks AfterMaking an Extensive Trip

Over the State.Mr. Sllfte Shelburno, who has traveled

over a largo part of tho tobaeoo belt. Innil tho counties nrotiml <ho olty, askedyesterday regarding tho tobacco crop,said:"The section eouth of the James River

and north of It, Including the cotintleeof Fluvanno, Albomatlo end Orango,where the bulk of tho dark EngHehstripping leaf Is made, has Ices than halfa crop. Tho prices last year on tideclass of tobacco wcro bo low that thopeople were forced/ to cut the crop."I talked w*th a number of good

planters who'kept an account of theirlabor, and these report that they did notmake ten cents per day. and a greatmany of thorn did not make much morethan enough to pay for their fertiliser"The present crop wae planted late,

and, having too much rain, a largepart of it latita body, and, being thinand light, will make a small yield tothe acre, ano* will only make oornmonsnuffers and common export filiere,which are now selling ??ß-iourth underlast year's price». So it Is very evident,unless there le a big advance in the leafgradee, the tobacco crop will be almostabandoned In this section."The crop In the eun-cured belt le aleo

light weight, and will not make overthree-fourths of laet year's crop. A goodpart of It wee planted late, and le thinand ha* cured dark. The early plantingIs bright and eweet, and wUl make a

fine chew, end will no doubt be all.wanted, but the present prices «eem tobe very uneatlefaotory to the planters,who are holding meetings snd agreeingamong themeelvee to ralee other pro¬ducts and cut off their tobacco crops.There eeoms to be no deposition what¬ever to plant another crop, and untósethere is a big change In prices betweennow and the Urne to burn plant beds,¦which Is in January and the firet ofFebruary, there will certain'? be littlepreparation made for another crop. Noplanter will now hire labor to plant a

tobacco crop. A great number of thelaboring class are leaving their farine,as they can get employment In the eitlenand upon the railroad? that ;+mi themmuch better than mak #; tobacco.r"The aun-curéd fe u very expensive

crop, as It roqulres so much handlingand takes 80 much room. Besides, it isso hard to keep from damaging thatagreat many planters will not make It"Mr- Sholburne'n opinion la that the

tobacco crop over the State, and. In fact,over the entire tobacco belt, is wantingin body, and will be much short in weightof what was expected.The big Butler & Bosher branch plant

of the Continental Tobacco Company,which has bean closed on account ofgetting in new machinery, will startup to-morrow morning with a large forceof hands.
