The Dix Case.

As was stated Saturday, George w.
Dix, charged with embezzling money
belonging to Osceola Tribe Of Red Men,
was sent to Jail to await the action of the
grand jury of the January term OF the
Corporation Court He had been held
at the station house until late in the
afternoon in order to give him time to
procure bail in the sum of 81 900, and
when all his efforts had failed he was
sent to Jail. His friends are still en-
deavoring to furnish the required security,
and it is said that several parties have
signiied their willingness to raise that
amount, but the law requires the sure
ties to own real estate and those prof.
ferring bail having none, their security
could not be accepted. As has hereto
fore been stated, the Postoflice Depart
ment was notified by Postmaster Crnp-
per of the charges pending against Dix,
and he has been indefinitely suspended
as letter carrier. 1t is expected that
his position will be declared vacant in a
few DAYS.

Interchange of Pulpits.

DR.. Hunt, of the Baptist Church,
occupied the pulpit of the NJ. q. Church
South last night, and Rev. Mr.. Stump
preached in the Baptist Church. This
interchange of pulpitsis theinauguration
of movement began by church people
recently to afford an opportunity for
church members to hear and become
acquainted with all the ministers of the
city. As has heretofore been stated in
the Gazette, in past years, when the
Christian Association was in existence,
the interchange of pulpits was pleasant
feature of the religious life Of the com
munity, and was productive of much
good in the way of united efforts in the
cause of Christianity.

THE rAYErTE STREET DEPOT.

New S,ructure Wanted I'm Alexandria
Main Artery of Travel Between
North and South Represented by
Small Wooden Buiiding-Fayette
Street Gorged With Trains.
While the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company is making preparations to ex-
pend So, 900, 900 in Improvements on the
Northern Central Railway, their atten-
ton should again be called to the frame
structure called a station which has for
the past quarter of century represented
this great corporation in Alexandria,
through which city the main railway
artery between the North and South lies
This company is using street of the
city night and day and as the years come
and 90 the already enormous traffic
steadily increases. 1t is thought, how
ever, by many that the city should make
certain concessions in order that more
satisfactory condition of affairs could be
inaugurated. All the trains over this
road now pass up and down Fayette
street on single track, and as a natural
consequence the squares used by the
company are of but little use for any
thing else, as the railway stands about
six inches above the level of the street,
and with the block system, watch boxes,
&C., serious impediments to vehicles are
offered. In fact the sides of some
squares are impossible. 1t has oc-
Cured to many that something should
be done toward retaining the street,
and now that the railroad has
come to stay it would be the part OF
wisdom to allow the company to'place
double track on the street by contracting
the present sidewalk. OF. course it
would be necessary to fence the tracks
and have gates at each intersection.
Then trains could pass quickly and the
discontinue would be minimized. Be-
sides there would be no opportunity at
forded mischievious boys of endanger-
ing their lives by hanging on passing
trains. 1t is said that the company is
willing to pave the street like King
street for the privilege described above,
and it could doubtless be induced to
erect more commodious aud modern
station also. Some people living on
Fayette, however, for reasons best known
to themselves prefer present conditions
to a double track, but how any more
annoyance, discomfort or damage could
be experienced than exists at present is
hard to see. As recently stated in the
Gazette an opportunity was lost in the
action of the city with the electric rail-
way in not allowing the company to
double-track King street. Should the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company offer
the same terms for like privileges on
Fayette street and they be rejected, it is
believed another mistake will be made
which will eventually be the cause of the
railroad company going around Alexan-
dria, as the time is as hand when one
track is not sufficient to meet the in
creased demands Of traffic. Should this
be the outcome, the policy of the com
pany owning the road is never to re-
linquish franchise once acquired, and
the present track will be kept on Fayette
street, probably for the convenience Of
cattle, freight or garbage trains.

Delightful Outing.

Imagine a acompany of $50 Sunday
school scholars loaded permiscuous-

quently using-a horn whose volume
was entirely out OF proportion to the
size of the owner, and you have an
idea of the party which started from
Academy Park last Saturday. But
those living in this vicinity have no
need to resort to imagination. 1t
was no Quaker meeting.
The four Sunday-schools in Norris
vile responded handsomely to call
for union gathering and the party
met in the Park at one O'Clock each
bringinga a lunch of sandwiches, which
were left in charge of a committee.
The procession, which was long and
happy one, was headed by four
mounted guards, one from each
school, namely: Ralph Booth, Clay
Fisk, Charles Prior and Mark Smith.
The line of march was to Hyde Park,
via Cady's Falls and return by the
Plains. On returning the company
repaired to Academy Park, where
lunch of sandwiches and lemonade
was enjoyed by both old and young.
The Morrisville Military Band fur
nished music for the occasion.
The large attendance Saturday
speaks we'll for the union feeling ex-
isting among the four schools and
must be decidedly encouraging for
those having the matter of arranging
for the State Sunday-school conven-
ton to be held here in October.
