Vote Early.

1t behooves every Democrat to GO to
the polls early today and cast straight
ticket, as it was learned last night that
the Republicans, in their desperation,
had decided to adopt obstructive tactics,
and put dummy voters in the lines at
the polls, so that the real voters could
not get their votes in after II O'Clock.

A CRANK AND THE KAISER.
Services interrupted in the Court Chaps
While the Emperor Was Present

Services Interrupted in the Court Chapel
While the Emperor Was Present
While the kaiser, Prince Henry, the Grand
Duke OF Baden and other royal personages
were present in the court chapel in Berlin
Sunday man in the audience suddenly
arose and cried out loudly and solemnly to the
preacher, DR.. yieregge: Your words are use
less. Behold, the millennium is at handr' The
disturber was about to continue his remarks,
but before he could utter another word the
vigilant attendants had seized him and
hustled him from the room. Court Preacher
Vieregge continued his sermon and the
congregation quickly regained their COM
posure. 1t inevitably happens, however, that
any occurrence i'll which the emperor is even
remotely concerned speedily becomes the sub
ject OF the most absurd gossip and exaggeration.
Stories began to circulate throughout Pststam
and Berlin of something extraordinary having
happened during the service. The kaiser was
said to have INDUCED in some eccentricity.
Finally the tale was confidently passed from
mouth to mouth that the emperor had shouted
to the preacher to stop talking nonsense. and
had suggested taking the pulpit himself for the
purpose OF expounding correctly some doctrine
with whose treatments at the hands of the
minister he had found fault The crank, +"
after being removed from the chapel. was ex-
amlned and found to be insane on the subject
OF religion. He proved to be the former pas
tor OF village near krossen.

The Plumber Declared Not Guilty.

John Carmody, plumber, was the defendant
before the jury in the Police Court yesterday
charged with having tapped water main in
front of 7l9 ~ street southwest without per-
init on March z, 1889. Mr. H. N. Woodward,
who was then assistant permit clerk at the Com
missioners' Office, testified to the issuing of a
permit to do some repairs on the water work at
Il9 AZ street southwest, and Mr. Fitzgerald.
an employee Of the water department. testified
that a service pipe from the main supplied 7l9,
and that he found that 72l was served from this
same service pipe, which had been tapped I'M
der the sidewalk.
MIR. Chr. Dickson stated that Mr.. Carmody
did some plumbing for him in 1889 in the house
7l9 Az street southwest. which was originally a
big double house. but which had been divided
into two houses years ago. In 1899 he had Mr..
Carmody mako some repairs on III, and by his
plumbing arrangements the water for that
house was drawn from the service pipe that
furnished house No. 719. This was done for
convenience in making out bills for the two
houses. water rent receipt was placed in
evidence to show that a water tax was paid for
both houses.
ID. p. Barton, an official of the water depart
ment testified that about three weeks ago ne
found that both houses were served by the
| same pipe.
At 1870 o'clock, after the noon recess, Mr..
Carmody took the stand in his own behalf and
testified that he made an open ditch, had a per-
NIT and did not think he had done anything
unlawful.
The court heard other testimony and after
lengthy arguments by counsel the jury returned
verdict OF not guilty.

Selling Bogus Titles to Georgia Land.

Inquiries coming to the Georgia secretary of
state from New York, Pennsylvania and the
states of the northwest developed the fact that
a large number of bogus titles to land in Mont
gomery county, Ga, are being offered for sale
by sharpers. The secretary furnishes history
of these titles. In 1884 warrants for the survey
of over 7,60O, 900 acres in Montgomery county
were issued to be settled under the head right
law. The papers file regarding the matter
bear internal evidences Of fraud, in that the
work was done by survey ors in time in which it
was physically impossible to accomplish it.
Tatnall county organized in 1901 from
Montgomery county, and additions to each of
these counties have since been made. Notwith-
standing these additions, the tax digest of 1890
shows that both counties together contain now
only ZOO, 600 acres, which shows, if the survey
OF l794 be true, shrinkage of over 5000, 900
sores. The titles with which the west and the
north are now being flooded owe their origin
to these evidently bogu surveys to over
5000, 600 acres of land which have no existence,

1874 has long been lost

ALEXANDRIA.

THE COMING TWENTY SECOND OF FEBRUARY.
The I'D of February. the birthday Of WASH
ington, will pass in the town OF Washington
without general observance other than that
which is made by Light Infantry parade, the
fact that as the day is a state holiday the ses-
sions of the public schools will be intermitted
and business will cease In the puolic offices.
The observance of Washington's birthday was
once a peculiarly Alexandria observance and
the day was observed here during his lifetime
by keeping alive the military spirit of the revo-
lutionary var The old veterans Of 1776, of whom
hundreds then survived, united with the
younger men in the military companies and
had sham battles on the mall and parades on
the streets under the eye of the grand chief.
After his death, for fear the custom of celebra-
ton might fall into desuetude. an association
was organized called the Washington Society,
whose object was to secure the celebration Of
the 22d of February. On every recurrence OF
the time the Washington Society furnished each
of the lads of the Washington School with
new suit of clothes to appear in
the procession Of the day. During subse-
quent times there have been intervals of non
cele braton, as the custom is q some what
costly one. Last year there were a score of OBJ
servances but this year no observance has been
announced except parade of the Alexandria
Light Infantry, Capt. Mushback. which will,

Harry Randolph Daley, aged nine years, died
the other night at the Johns Hopkins Hos
pital, in Baltimore, from the effects OF an op-

bitten on the foot by mosquito last summer.
The bite caused slight swelling at the time
and after a day caused little Inconvenience.
About week afterward, however, the boy
complained OF pain in his foot, and this was
followed by swelling which extended up the
leg. Soon the groin was affected and a swelling
about the size OF silver dollar made its appear.

came abnormally large. Three weeks ago his
parents brought him to the hospital and the
physician in charge concluded that an opera
ton was necessary. 1t was too late, however.
The boy could not stand the shock and soon
died.

Humiliation Of Canada.

The Toronto Globe editorially comments on
the visit of the Canadian cabinet ministers to
Washington, and says:
II it is true that the Canadian commits
sioners have failed in their mission to Wash
ington because they did not have authority
from the imperial government to negotiate, it
does not say much for the knowledge OF diplo-
macy possessed by Mr.. Abbott and Sir John
Thompson. What sort of men are they to be
intrusted with the government of a country
when they fail in the first movement for lack
OF essential authority to act?
IL they cannot make trade terms with the
United States which would discriminate against
Great Britain without leave OF the imperial
government being first obtained, how can they
justify before the Canadian parliament the
course which they have pursued! Either they
erred through ignorance or they purposely
sought to mislead the citizens of Canada with
the object Of influencing the votes of the peo-
pie in their own favor at the bye-election.
Whatever the cause may have been Canada is
Inundated and We are no nearer to the secur-
ing OF trade relations now than We we're year
ago. We shall await their explanations with
curiosity. They may not be made now. but
they cannot be delayed long after parliament
meets. We are fully persuaded that Canada
never can get reciprocity with the United States
under conservative regime.
