but misunderstood historical
subject.
The general roll call, with
Mortimer Thomson as its topic,
elected some new facts in the
history of that quaint writer.
The subject for general quo

its inspiration, was fully abreast
other matters discussed by the
club.
The Introductory part of the
program being disposed Of, the
regular litergry work of the day
opened by two excellently writ
ten papers by Mesdames Cruce
and VanDenberg respectively.
| The former was at her best and
gave the club one of her fine
analytical studies from Dickens
showing her familiarity with the
works of that author. Mrs.

sketches of Howells evinced the
usual care she bestows in pre-
pairing manuscripts for the en-

NAUGHTY PEOPLE.
Jim Jordan and Polly Sins Overtsken
bV the wonan's Husbaad. and We're
fined For Illegal Consolidation.

Jim Jordan and Polly Sims,
two individuals of color, were
up before Commissioner Wal
cott yesterday and pleaded
guilty to charge of illegal co
habitation, preferred by the
husband of the woman in the
case. The parties all live in
Dallas, and it seems that Jim
and Polly took a fancy to each
other, that led to their elope-
ment. Polly also carried away
with her $50 cash. that consti-
tuted the savings of her hus-
band. They came here about
ten days ago, and have been liv-
ing here since as man and wife.
This morning the abused hus.
band put in an appearance and
proceeded to lay his grievance
before Commissioner WalcOtt
who issued warrants on the
charge as above stated. About
the time the papers were put il
the hands of the officer, jim
and Polly came into the cour
room, were arrested, pleaded
guilty, and were fined $50 anC
cost each, amounting in total t.
$3.50. Jim went down int,
his jeans and liquidated, mos
probably out of the reserve fun'
of hubby's money. After tn,
case was settled, the three i'll
interested parties held a con
sultation, resulting in Polly 90
ing with her husband, leaving
jim sad and lonely.

FORT MYER WELL is A FRAUI

FORT MYER WELL is A FRAUD.
An ingenious scheme to defraud the
government has been brought to light
by War Department authorities, in con-
necton with the big we'll at Fort Myer.
1t has long been the desire to supply
that military post with satisfactory
water sys' EN-, and some years ago Con-
gress appropriated 100000 to establish
one. The original plan was to tap the
Aqueduct at Chain bridge, and carry
tie water across the river, but repu-
table persons offered to dig well for
$1,000, which would furnish $4,000 gal
Ions of water every twenty-four hours,
and it was accepted on account of the
saving of money to the government.
Quartermaster Gen. Batchelder select
ed the site for the we'll on the borders
Of little stream, convenient to the post.
The contract was made in 1892, with
ex-Representative Levi P. Maish as the
chief party to it.
The first we'll proved a failure, gran
ite rock being struck, below which no
water could be held. Another well
was started short distance from the
first site. A professional well digger from
Pennsylvania was engaged, to whom
the contract was sub.let He agreed to
dig the we'll for 81 900, it being stip4-
lated that he was not to be paid if the
requisite amount of water was not
forthcoming. He discovered water,
which was duly aualyzed and found
pure on first test, but soon afterward
he reported that the well had been fill
ed up with iron by some malicious per-

LETTER FROM FAUQUIER.
+ CORRESPONDENCE of the Alexandria Gazette.

Correspondence of the Alexandria Gazette.
MARSHALL, July 1S.-Among other
pleasant visitors in our midst are
the Misses Fendall and Redding, OF
Washington, at "Yelverton."
Mrs. Wyeth and sister will leave
"Mouutain View" shortly for short
visit to Clarke county.
Quite an enjoyable sociable came of
at the "Moorings" an evening or so
ago. When returning the Misses Barry,
OF Clifton, charming young ladies late
of New York, and Miss Mary Thorn
ton, of Memphis, were uniuckily
caught out in severe electric storm
and, with others of the party, were
drenched, but otherwise escaped serious
harm.
Bicycles may be met nearly at every
turn of our public roads. Among e1
perts iu full tog are Messrs. Van Horn,
Gaddis and Horner. To keep apace
with the modern wheelists, the parsons
will have to read up the book of the
grand old Hebrew prophet Ezekial,
who writes of the "wheel in the middle
of wheel"
Here we recall our pleasure lately
reading in the Protestant Episcopal
Reriew "Recollections os Long Life"
by Rev. Joseph Packard, D. D. This
most esteemed clergyman has many de-
voted and admiring friends in this
community, we regret to add that Rev.
]. ]. Norwood, rector of our Episcopal
Church, on account of feeble health
hss been obliged to give up his charge
for time and to seek rest at health
resort.
We have just been favored with a
scrap of news of Cuban affairs which
may please the readers of the GAZETTE,
showing that the condition of the is-
land is sad enough. The letter from q
friends tells how young Pando, the
commander of gunboat coaster, was
killed by the insurgents as he attempt
ed to ascend the Canto river; they then
destroyed the steamer. Destruction of
life and property seems to be the order
of the day on the beautiful island,
which is larger than the State of New
York and able to sustain a population
equal to that of old England. When
treading the soil as we did when at
Harvard some years ago where reposes
the sacred dust of the immortal Chris
topher Columbus, we could but desire
for the good people there to be more
like him in character.

Then il was examined by st. Louis
expert.
The second we'll was uncovered a
few days ago, and six feet from the
surface four-inch terra Gotta pipe was
found leading from the well into
the stream. In a clump of brush
es, down stream, hundred feet
away, was small dam sufficient to
turn a great deal of water into the
pipes, and thence into the we'll itself.
So the water pumped from the we'll
ran back into the stream, to the dam,
and again to the we'll, down wooden
trough, and again into the stream.
This would go on so long as the well
was pumped, but at the rate of $4,000
gallons day the stream would soon
have been dry. The third well was
found TO be constructed in similar
manner.
No blame is attached to Col. Maish.
The sub contractor is believed to have
gone to South America to dig other
wells, but the Department of Justice
will endeavor to lay hands upon him.
