a MEMBER OF Congress told the Willef
day OK Two sgo that he recently had occs-
sion to come to Alexandria and ride through
and around it, and that tue wonder to MIN
wap, not that the city is growing Slowly
but that 1t is growing at ell, for that SUCH
streets he had rarely seen, and such roads,
never. Ee said the two foremost conditions
for ct,'s growth and prosperity are
smooth streets aud good roads leading to It,
but that his trip to Alexandria induced him
to think that the people here are obliVioue
to such essential truth. The Improvement
Of A'exsndria's streets Is matter over
which Alexandrians have complete control
and as good roads improve the value of the
lands adjoining them, and therefore increase
the revenue OF the counties through which
they run, it would seem that Fairfsx ano
Alexandria counties should make provision
for those leading from them to this city
Sewerage can be provided for subsequently
bit the Improvement ofthe streets and reads
ia a sutisct for immediate consideration.

The Pennsylvania Railroads Summer
Excursion Routes Book for the season of
1891, just from the press, is undoubtedly
one of the most elaborate reference com.
pendiums issued by any railroad company
in the world. The company this year has
used new illustrations, printed on very
high grade of paper, while decided de-
parture from the old cover heretofore
binding the work is seen in the new one,
which is beautifully illuminated, and
would do credit to the brush of a Rossi,
so cleverly French is it in every detail.
The new map embraces a territory from
Canada to the Carolinas, and from the
British possessions of New Brunswick to
beyond the Great Inland Lakes When
comparison is made with this volume of
272 pages, 100 illustrations and over 1900
routes, book which enters its year of
manhood the first day of June, 1891, and
the tiny pamphlet of "a pages and SO
routes issued twenty one years ago by the
Pennsylvania Railroad, and considered at
that time marvellous departure in rail
road advertising, the growth is hardly
credible.

The strongest argument that has been
used for the great expense to the State of
the militia, in time of peace, is that 10
time of riot or disturbance which the police
were incapable of subdung, then the mill
itia came to subdue the riot and uphold the
dignity OF the law. That argument has
been knocked endways by the Governors
law providing for State Police force, OF
which John p. Feeney Is now billeted on
the State as chief at salary Of SO, 300 a
year. This State police force renders the
militia entirely useless, except for show
parades, and the expense OF an encamp-
ment Of the militia and new s 10, 900 cafe,
at Sea Girt, for social military purposes,
useless expense to the State Instead
of the great expense OF an encampment
this year, John p. Feeney, representing
the militia and the majesty OF the law of
the State, should go into encampment for
week, have a shoot at the targets, aud
dress parade, and be reviewed by the
Governor. The only expense to the State
would be the cost of transportation of Mr..
Feepey and drummer and fifer to and
from Jersey City, and the cost Of serving
up the hard tack end beans for the State
force during the week II would save
enough TO the State to cover the cost OF
enlarging the Governors apartments at
the State House.

World reporter, and although what lie
ordinarily has to say is not Of much i'm

ed to his strongly expressed doubts
about Gov. Abbett's succeeding him In the

pretty well known, that an opposition to

ing organized throughout the State and

He has no means of knowing, he
says, who would be likely TO enter the
field against Albeit, but he is clear that
''the effect of last winters legislation on
bis chances will be Injurious, because Its
end and purpose was to build upa person

"Shs was just out of a convent, too, and
scared to death of n man, and OF me, it
seemed to me. in particular. To marry any
way and go away and cav her mamma was
bad enough, but to go away, as 1 proposed,
up to my plantation, way up in the back
country, WAS worse yet.
But she said she cared enough about me,
even then, little as she knew me, to do it, and
off we went. We drove up to the farm, and
