Louis V. Bell has decided to cancel
all the dates of his horse Mischievous
and send him to the stud. Mr.. Bell paid
more than $1,000 for him.

some time in the year. Thursday the
man of the hour was Louis V. Bell, a

his three-year-old Hermis. whom he pur-

OF GENERAL INTEREST
September Term Of the Cir
cult Court Begins Today. !.
Many Suits on Docket Against Railroad,
and Electric Companies-Registra-
tion Work Being Pushed to
Conclusion.

ALEXANDRIA, Va, Sept 21.-The Sep
tember term of the circuit court for this
city, with Judge C. E. Nicol presiding
will convene at 10 o'clock tomorrow
| morning. At this term a number OF
important damage suits against railroad
are suits against the Washington, Alex
andria and Mount Vernon Electric Rail-
way Company and the Southern Railway
Company.
Suits against the electric railway COM
pany scheduled for this term are those
OF Mrs. Laura E. Ridgeway and her in
fant son, and Mr.. Thomas Hoy, jr. These
people are suing for damages for in
juries alleged to have been sustained in
an accident on the road which occurred
in Alexandria county, near Addison
Heights, in October. 1900.
Among the suits against the Southern
Railway Company is that of Mr.. William
E. Crupper for the loss of an eye alleged
to have been sustained in an accident
while employed in the company's ma
chine shops in this city. The case was
heard in this court several months ago

the First it Will be concluded Wednes-
day night, and in the Second Thursday

played by both races is something hard
to understand.

Bells fortunes turned, and he won that
horse out the very day he bought him.
Since then Hermis has not lost a race,
and besides winning many thousands of
dollars in stakes, he has landed several
large-sized bets. Mr.. Bell also owns the
three-year-old G. Whittier, and upon
being informed by his trainer, the astute
James Mccormick, that Whittier had
worked six furlongs in 1:l3, Mr.. Bell
placed $1,000 each way on the colt, at
odds of 40 and SO to l. Whittier. al
though he was meeting pretty good
horses. won at the end very comfort
ably, landing about 100000 for his owner.
Mr.. Bell presented his trainer, McCor-
mick, with a ticket calling for Sc, 100 for
his pains.
