DAMAGE in ALEXANDRIA.
Many buildings Were wrecked-Two
Lives Lost.

The storm which swept over Alexandria
last night was the most severe ever eX-
perienced in that city. In a very few
minutes after il broke the telephone aud tcle-
graph wires were blowu down.
No one dared venture out until the storm
had subsidized. and tlen great fear was eu-
tertained on account of the live wires,
which were emitting vivid iiusnes.
The streets were blocked with trees,
telegraph and telephone poles, tin fools
and bricks from fallen walls.
Police whistles were sounded throughout
the city as soon as il was learned that wo
lives had been lost In dcmoiisn cl buildings
The scene ut the Stuart homestead was
affecting. Miss Stuart and her brother
were seated at a table in the dining room,
when the crash came. The falling bricks

The sister had succeeded in eXtricating
herself from the debris, but her unfortunate
brother was buried beneath tons OF bricks

covered.

A Mystery of Arithmetic.

1t was interesting to read about the
gentleman who, at Il Sunday school
meeting last Sunday, told the children
that in the thirty-three years during
which he had abstaiLed from tobacco,
he had saved by that means SS,SS2.61.
1t would also be interesting to know
whether any bright boy in the room
asked him if he had all that money in
the bank. 1t is one of the curious
things about economies of this sort
that they never seem to make any diff
ference with ones budget at the end
of the year. Theoretically, arithmet-
ically, they must, of course, but prac-
tically they don't. What lots of saw
ing, thrifty, get-ahead fellows there
are who smoke. and what lots of total
abStainorS from tobacco who can't lay
up a cent to save their lives! 1t really
seems as If the matter OF saving mon
ey were presided Over by unseen impS,
who spirit away dimes and dollars
from some people by night and put
them in the pockets of other people.
Cash accounts don't altogether explain
the mystery. \ man who doesn't use
tobacco may often wonder where he
would get the money to buy it if he
did use it; but if he did use it, probab-
~ his accounts would somehow come
to the same thing.-BoSton Transcript.

Art of Professional Fasting.

\ glimpse into the inside history of
the professional fasting business is
not without interest. A nan who has
tasted three weeks In a show called
Wonderland" in the Whitechapel
quarter of London sued the proprie-
tors for his salary, which they meanly
withheld when he was ready for Il
very large quantity of victuals. He re-
covered most of his salary, but the de-
PENDANTS offered in eviderce a suspi-
cious-looking bill against him for ere
frcShments'' during the fast. The 're-
freShmentS'' were only lemonade and
sugar and water. and the cost of these
was deducted from his salary. He
seems to have been a reasonable kind
of fasting man. Not all these abnorm-
al performers are SO scrupulouS. What
would Wonderland have said to the
man in Il trance in Vienna, who, on the
withdra wal of the public for the night,
was seen by n watchful detective TO
rise and make a hearty meal of Ger
man sausage.

Bicycle Law I'm Mexico.

A bicycle in Mexico must be proVid-
ed with a bell, a metal plate showing
it's license number, and at night, n Ian
tern. The number of wheels in the
capital is increasing rapidly. All makes
are represented, and the very latest
patterns and improvements are de
manded. There are many splendid BIZ
cycle trips to be made in the valley.
In every direction extend roads that
have paths made smooth by the tread
of the burro and barefoot native. and,
while they would offer little induce
mcnt to a vehicle, furnish a good track
for wheels Modern Mexican.

think of being a party to Icons fall-
ure. The old violin in the closet
seemed to send o Il lament because
the music in its heart had been so long
unvoiced. He could fancy that the
spirits of those who in lOng-gone days
had played in its moving tones the
joys and sorrows of a vanished time.
And then-but Anthony could not think
Of ii any more. He turned his thoughts
rcSOlutely TO his next days Virgil read
ing, n topic stimulating his fancy 50
slightly that he soOn forgot it all in
sleep.
1t was three days later when Antho-
ny went into Prof. ManGclS room, be-
fore the latter had finished the lesson
he was giving Leon. Both teacher and
pupil We're aggravated by the dull
tones of the cracked violin, and at last
Mandel handed Leon his own instru-
ment, upon which no pupil had never
before been permitted to play. An
thony sat down and listened for the
remainder of the lesson hour. At first
his heart sank within him. He could
not so much as dream of being able TO
play like that. Then gradually the
music came W him with all its pow
or. He wondered how so slight Il form.
SO thin and etherealiZe Il face, should
have for its SOU so much strength and
mastery. Directly he forgot to think
about this, and by the time Leon had
finished he knew what he should do.
The shy boy hardly understood him
when he told him that he had an old
violin of good quality, to the use of
which he AZ welcome for the rest of
the term; but Anthony himself played
better that afternoon than he had for
weeks.
Anthony did not enter the contest for
the prize. His father would be diSap-
pointed. he knew; but he had not the
heart to bring his fumhling with the
bow INTO comparison with Icons mas
terry Of his instrument. Roy laughed ut
him. and even upbraided lin a little
for lending his violin, but ROy's laugh
ter and upbraiding were alike harm
less.
But after the contect. wien the prize
had been awarded, Icons mother came
to him without an introduction.
Il do not know how t thank you"
she said, ana her voice was not so
steady as it might have been. Giving
Leon the violin was more to him than
the prize"
Afterward, when they had gone to
his Don together, Anthony told his
father why he had not played, ana
with whose instrument il WAS that
Leon had won. His father seemed to
be thinking Of other things. only ned
ding his head slowly to show that he
was listening. Then. at the conclusion.
he spoke as if from a distance. his eyes
locking into n time of which Anthony
knew not.
Your uncle used Ia play that same
fantasia on the old violin years ago,
when we were boys together. | can
see him dropping his head over the
strings now. lie used to linger over
that adaGio until it seemed the melting
tones were melting voices calling, and
even the andante's pain of human long
ing barely seemed to bring him back
to earth. 1t Is no wonder that your
friend played we'll tonight"
Anthony was not thinking now Of
the possibility of having to meet his
fathers displeasure.-Louis Worthing-

Washington was owned by Mr.. kOt-
Zebue. the Russian minister. 1t is an
ESquimau, n descendant of the famous
dogs owned by Lieut.. Peary. 1t got Il
fall last spring which resulted in Il
slight lamenCSS. The dog was placed
on Il soft mattress ana tended with the
most loving are.
The injury was such Il small affair
that the physician began to wonCer ut
the SlOwneSS of the recovery. After Il
few days he could find nothing wrong
with the creature. who had Il good APP
petite and was apparently well, onry
he refused to rise from his couch and
walk. At last the physician made up
his mind that ii was Il deliberate case
of sham, that the dog enjoyed Il care
he got as an invalid so much that he
was loath to go back to his old life.
SO, M day, his doctor put him on his
feet. spoke sharply to him and con-
graduated himself on the conclusion
he had come to when he saw the ami
mai walk off with the utmost ease.
Washington is the home of another
wonder in the shape of a dog. 1t is Il
pug owned by Miss Ellis. One is al
most afraid to announce what its chief
accomplishment is. put impossible as
il may sound. the actual fact is the
dog is a talking dog, and says
Mammal" with as much d~istinctnesS
as talking dolls display. 1t is a marvel
of Il dog. wise beyond belief. ana. al
though il does not say anything but
Mamma" ii looks as though it could
say almost anything if it had a mind
to.
Care of the teeth of dogs forms an
important branch Of medical treat
ment. Many dogs have their teeth
cleaned regularly, and, Of course, near
ly all old dogs have their teeth ex-
tracted. In q few cases the teeth have
been filed. but this industry is not car
ried ON with dogs to the extent that it
is with horses.-New York Press.

After carefully showing me the route
OF the Fran, as well as his anu
Johansen's curse in their perilcus
journey alone over the ice after leav-
ing the ship, the charts were a aside
on the floor, and DR.. Nansen proceeded
to describe In the simple, direct man
ner so characteristic of him, some Of
the numberless interesting incidents OF
his voyage. Evidently thrilled t. his
earnest voice and manner, Liv. his lit
tie girl, who had been playing in Il
corner of the room, drew nearer, and
unconSciously she walked upon the
original records OF her fathers route.

and ends connected with the voyage.

Systematically arranged; the walls
were covered with presentation studies
