ALEXANDRIA HAPPENINGS.

The city council last night granted the
Pennsylvania Railway the right to lay g
double track on Fayette street, but with
restrictions which, it is thought, viii kill
the bill, as the railway company will NOT
accept them. Tue petition OF the company
for the use of the street had been adopted
at the last meetiu. OF the common council,
and last night II came up in tile board OF
aldermen. The aldermen amended the
measure so as to require the railway COM
pany to get permission OF a majority OF the
property owners from Duke street to the
northern corporation line. before they could
commence work, but reduced the cost OF
the depot from S2O. 1000, as passed by the
common council, to $4,000 When the
measure went back to the common council
that body would not agree to the sic, 600
600, aud in this shape the measure got
through. II the railway company will ac-
cept the terms of the city council then an
ordinance VIII be passed.
The bill to Increase the police forcs was
killed in the common council by what Is
said by many to be an arbitrary ruling
passed a measure increasing the force by
four men. In the common council this was
opposed by Messrs. Cation and SDOwden.
aud on a vote being taken eight votes were
cast for the measure, aud nine against Ii.
Mr.. Snowden thereupoD declared the measure
lost, because it failed to receive majority
OF the entire council, nine votes. Mr..
Mushbach disputed the correctness Of this
ruling, but no appeal was taken.
A resolution appropriating $500 for the
repairing OF Cameron street from Fairfax
TO Lee, was adopted.
Several ordinances. passed in previous
years, were amended SO as to confer upon
the city engineer the process formerly
possessed by the Superintendent OF police
and the city surveyor.

Talk of the Formation of q COMMITTEE
- That VIII Oppose the Boss.

New York, Nov. 26.-The result of the
Republican enrolment, which occurred Sat
urday night, is still a matter OF doubt. The
committee on organization VIII hold o
meeting tonight to receive the rolls. The
result will not be made public until tumor-
row. The committee on protests has num-
Der of knots yet TO unite before anything
definite can be announced.
+ 1t is said that the Brookffeld faction is
seriously contemplating the formation of a
new Republican county committee. The
faction can find no man who is willing to
make the fight against Edward Lauter-
bach, who is certain of reelection.
Mr. IauterbaclI when seen today in regard
to the proposed new committee said:
II am not an expert bolter. have never
had any experience in that sort of thing. If
the anti-organizatiOn Republicans are de-
termined 10 get out of the county committee,
l don know that we viii have any power to
stop them"
The bitterness between the factions was
greatly accumulated by the enrolment pro-
ceediDgs Saturday night. 4oth Platt and
anti-Platt wings are ma king serious charges
against each other of fraud. The anti
PIaftites are bowling about the outrageous
frauds at several election districts OF the
Tbirty-fourth assembly district, and lie
f4a.tltvS rgJalldtt with similar cha! gvS
against those in charge the enrolling places
of the Fourth assembly district. 1t is said
that when the result of the enrolment Is
ascertained 1t will show Brookfield gains
in many districts, but not enough to pre-
vent Edward Lauterbach from being re-
elected to the cEairmanship.

When the father of the family was able

came STACK, and tue finances OF the family

month, and th,ugh this was but IS. 90. yet
it became harder and harder TO meet II.
Two month ago Emma. q iive-year-old
child. died, and the funeral expenses drained
the treasury of the stricken FAMILY. Ine
last penny went that the child should be
properly buried. When the vanished coffin
was lifted from the house and the streamers
of white Grape were removed from the duor-
knob the last ray of sunshine left the Wall
house and things took on q dreary aspect
indeed. The father. James Wall, was ia ken

did all that lay In their power for the suffer-
Ing man, about one week ago be died.
Since the funeral the troubles uf the fam
lily have been many. The Times called at
the house last night and found the mother
and her children hudiled around small
stove in q dreary back room.
There is practically no furniture IN the
house and ON table were some crusts of
bread, which had evidently been LETT over
rom the evening meal.

Because u Plate Fell and Broke the
Diners Formed an Association.
The Broken Plate club is a curious
little association or brotherhood. with
headquarters in small village in the
Department of the Nord. France. Sew
eral years aSo a party OF manufacture
ers and merchants were dining together
when by chance plate rolled from the
table. fell into the fireplace and broke.
Strangely enough, the number of pieces
correspondent exactly with the number
Of diners. Upon this circumstance a So
cicty was formed to include only those
then and there present. and to ternli-
nate finally on the death of the last
member. To each man was assigned a
piece Of the broken plate. The men
meet and dine each year and though
no deaths have occurred as yet in the
little association, the unwrittcn laws
read that when each member dies his
piece shall he handed over to the Presi-
dent, who, one by one, shall fasten the
fragments together When every mem
Der save one has passed away, that man
shall add his final bit to the plate, ce-
monting it firmly in, and shall have i,
buried.
