JUDGE LAwRENSON DYING,
The Noted Veteran Of the Post ONCE
Department is in the Valley.

BALTIMORE, March Judge Lawrenson.
the Oldest employe Of the United States
postal service, both in point Of age and con-
tinuous service, is dying at his home
in this city from pneumonia. On the 22d Of
the present month he will be eighty-seven
years old. Last Saturday evening Judge Law
renson returned home from Washington in ap-
parent good health and after cheerful
conversation with his family re-
tired. At 10 o'clock he was seized
with chill. This passed off, but on Sunday
morning he was not able to go to the Fayetts-
vile NJ. E. church, as was his custom, and an
aggravated case of pneumonia developed. Judge
Lawrenson was born March %, 1903, in Bristol,
England, and came to America when four
years of age. He landed at Baltimore, where
his mother died. His father, Capt. James
Lawrenson, died at San Domingo a
few years before. At the age of
sixteen years young Lawrenson entered
the postal service Of the Baltimore post Office
and after fifteen years service was transferred
to the general department at Washington where
he has sworn in every postmaster general for
forty years past.

GEORGETOWN,

In THE WAY OF A STREET EXTENSION
eral months ago the Commissioners ordered
Prospect avenue to be cleared or in other
words ordered the removal of obstructing
houses which stood in the way of the proposed
extension of the avenue. The orders
were partly carried out, as three of
the obstructing houses were removed,
but that was not all, for there remains
one more. which will have to be dealt with as
the others were before the proposed extension
can be effected. The occupant of this house
Is colored man. who claims that he is living
on property adjoining and owned by George
town college; that the college people told him
so. The officers were about to remove the
building, when they were confronted with a
restraining order issued to Georgetown college.
The house still remains in its former position
In spite OF the proposed extension of Prospect
