A Question and an Answer.
Mr.. EDITOR:

Mr.. EDITOR:
Please explain what this in
vestigation of Pool Rooms in New
York City means. About which
there has been so much in the pa
pers for several days.
SUBSCRIBER.
They are rooms run in violation
of law in which pools or chances
are sold cd prize fights norge races,
etc, which is gambling pure and
simple. The investigation is for the
purpose of asertaining whether or
not they are run with knowledge
and assistance Of the mayor and
city officials and if they do not get
a division of the Spells for this pro
testion
The ',pool" rooms are not where the
games of pool or billiards are played
although the similarity of terms have
mislead some people.

Waltz still in the Ring.

Mr.. Joseph J. Waltz. president of
the Gulf, Louisiana and Great North
ern Railway Company, left last night
for New York, to look after some
matters in connection with the bonds
to be issued by his company in build
ing the road. He will return to Alex
andria by Feb. LIST, in time to be pres
emit at the meeting Of stockholders OF
the company.-Town Talts 18th.
Mr.. Ed. Kennedy, one OF the stock
holders of the Gulf, Louisiana & Great
Northern Railway Company, who has
been in Alexandria for several weeks,
received the following telegram to-
day from Mr.. Jos. j. Waltz, the pres
ident of the company:
philadelphia, Pu., Jan. 16.-The
cars with tools are to be shipped
Thursday. All o. K. this week. p
Town Talk, 18th.
We give the above extracts as bits
of news that should be encouraging
to those who hope soon to see this
road under Roadway. 1t is to be
built first from Alexandria to Colfax
and Montgomery, and thence to Fort
Smith, Ark. The meeting of the
stockholders of this road is advertised
in the Alexandria Town Talk for Feb.
LIST, at which time directors for the
ensuing year are to be elected. In
common with all our neighbors, we
have become somewhat wearied over
the many false alarms raised by Mr.
Waltz, but as he has personally as.
sured this editor that dirt will really
be broken soon, We shall wait few
days before losing faith in the enter
prise.

A unique violin has been made by a
Missouri man. The back is of cherry
from a table more than a century old,
which formerly belonged 20 the How
ard-Paync sollcgc. In the center of
the back are inserted 81 pieces Of wood
from the Holy Land, one being from a
grapevine that grew in the garden of
Gethsemauc. Around the margin are
set in a row small pieces of wood, dia-
mond shaped, gathered from all over
the civilized world. In one end of the
back is inserted n horseshoe made of
castor wood, and in the other end is
the image OF a rabbit carved in cherry.
There are. in all, over $50 pieces of
wood. and the only tools used in the
manufacture of the instrument were n
pocketknife and a half-inch chisel.

The recent Wisconsin cyclone exhfb-
tied all the incredible freaks that go
with the worst of these twisting storms,
such as carrying away 3,00O-pound
safe, taking the bark off trees, tearing
loose boards TO splinters, decapitating
a man, and carrying others to consider
able distances almost uninjured. The
largest brick block in the town, crowd
ed with farmers just returning from
the circus, was crushed like an eggshell
and the lighter frame dwellings were
whisked away like straw, while two
churches were both left standing. 1t
will be long before science can explain
all the freaks of cyclone.

II has long been held that the use OF
fresh bread Is injurious, and cautious
people and dyspeptics carefully avoid
the temp;ingly crisp new loaves with
all their aromatic charms, patiently
combining themselves TO bread more or
less stale. Now there comes an
astounding statement that stale bread
is infected with germs, more or less
destructive TO health, and present in
larger numbers rs the bread grows
older. 4 health food company recent
ly made a demonstration of this fact,
showing that while fresh, well-baked
bread gave 24O germs TO the gram u5'4
grains), in bread that was kept in a
warm cupboard three days, or until it
had become slightly stale, the number
of germs was nearly 100000.
