ALEXANDRIA. Va, November IL, 1902.
1t Is stated that the Washington, Alex
andria and Mount Vernon railroad Will soon
commence the construction Of q loop track
on Fairfax street from King street to
Prince street and up Prince street to Royal
street, which, with the tracks already on
King and Royal streets, Will form an entire
square around the block inclosed by the
streets mentioned. The necessary permis-
sion from council has been secured, and 1t
only remains for the company to begin
the work. According to the terms agreed
to the railroad company is under obliga-
tion to pave the entire width of Prince
street between Fairfax and Royal streets
and to pave Fairfax street from Prince
street to the new paving already down
just south of King street.
The new arrangement, 1t is expected, will
greatly facilitate the handling Of the nu-
merous trains coming from the Mount
Vernon and Washington lines which are
now shifted on King and Royal streets,
where the insufficient track often results
in a congestion of cars and an Interior
ence with traffic. The company will place
a new and improved switch at the inter-
section of King and Washington streets

The trade in dressed beef is

regulated and prices advanced.
1t is within the power of the

it's agents, under rigid discipline
in every important town of the

Some Philosophical Comments
Made by n British DUTist.

Judge Bacon, who presides in
the London England) county
court, is one of the wits of the
English judiciary. He has to
deal with all races and all classes.
and has become famous for tersc
decisions and quaint sayings.
Here are some of the utterances
that he recently delivered from
the bench:
On the veracity of woman
Women tell stories so much
more easily than men,"
Concerning interpreters -
People who translate language
they do not understand into one
they know less
When the evidence was con-
tradictory-'There is nothing
astonishing in perjury. 1t has
long ceased to surprise me: it
only Saddens me now
About money lenders My
own impression is that the lender
is about as honest as the bor-
rover. As Il rule there is no
misrepresentation that man
will not make when he wishes to
borrow money, and when he
does not want to pay it back he
will repeat the operation.
To defendant who declared
she couldn't stay there and
listen to such Iies'-''Think of
mel have to listen to them
every day of my life
A woman pleaded inability to
pay debt on account of illness.
Four doctors had attended her

And you have survived: Won
