A ALEXANDRIA
SHOOTERS HILL Hrrnurs


Shooters Hill, the property of the estate q
the deceased millionaire, II. G.. Dulany, has
now been purchased for s2l, 600 by q syndi-
cate. The estate comprises forty-two acres and
overtops Alexandria on the west Its crest. at
the head OF hing street extended, is 1921 feet
above the Washington ferry wharf at King
street dock. 1t was so named by
one OF Its owners, an English gen
tleman, after shooters Hill" eight
miles from London, on the road TO Dover. hose
summit commands a fine view Of that CITY, IL
is frequented by London picnic parties The
Alexandria suburb undoubtedly owes its name
TO the fact that IL occupies about the same po-
sition IN regard to the capital of the United
States that the Transatlantic Shooters Hill does
to the capital of Great Britain.
TIE ALEXANDRIA ELEPHANT.
II has been a popular belief here that the
Pioneer mill can be made q corner stone from
which a new Alexandria can be built By the
collapse Of the vapor fuel boom the city will
shortly become the owner of that mill and its
appurtenances. For the present the corporation
lie entitled TO yearly rent of 81, 200 therefrom,
and as this rent has not been paid, nor is likely
to be. the city viii soon become the owner Of
the whole property. Some think that the cor
poration of Alexandria will then have on its
hands an elephant big as Jumbo" and will not
know what TO do with it. The more
thoughtful people are Inclined TO believe that
if the Affairs Of the town are in the hands Of
men OF business skill they can put the
ele phant TO work for the public benefit The
establishment 10 extremely commodious. Is
upon deep water and within a hundred feet OF
a railway. The administration Of the city
real estate as TO make il pay is q task OF no
little difficulty, and, Of late, has not been sue
cess.
