S. S. Lutz, n. S. Purcell and Beverley Is.

Reports from the wheat crop through

Some of the farmers in Fauquier and
Culpeper counties are offering their en-

THE HOTEL CAVED IN.
Damage by the Flood at ScottsviIIe-Water
N,t as High as Last December.
Especial Dispatch to The Timcs)

SCOTTSVILLE, VA, March 5.-The
foundation of the west end of the Harris
block on Main Street here, for some time
used as the Albemarle Hotel. gave way
during the recent high water and the
west wall fell outward, crushing in
frame building used by s. D. Allen, a
shoemaker. which was on the adjoining
lot. Fortunately no one was hurt.
Mrs o. r. Pcndleton, who has been for
several years proprietor of the Albemarle
Hotel, has given up the hotel business,
ard moved to White Hall farm just the
day preceding the collapse.
Rather a strange coincidence in connec-
ticn with the collapse is the fact that it
occurred just at the usual breakfast hour,
and had it occurred a few days earlier
i. is almost certain that a number of
persons would have been injured. as this
Fart of the building was used as the din
i. groom. This part of the building will
he torn down and will not be replaced
at present.
The maximum height attained by the
water at Scottsville was about two feet
less than on December 81, 1901.

Major James D. Patton, President Rich

Dear Sir,-I deem it proper to bring
to the attention OF the Board of Direc-
tors the question of the adv1sability OF
this company declining to furnish cleo
trio current to buildings in which high
voltage electric current for light pur-
poses is being used.
My reasons for suggesting this action
are well known to you, and you will re-
call that for more than a year past /
have repeatedly called your attention to
the danger, both to persons and
as a fire risk. Of high voltage electric
currents for lighting purposes within

pany to considerable loss of revenue.
and will entail the severance of business
relations from some who for many years
have been our patrons, but the time has
now arrived, in my opinion, for this COM

furnish service to buildings subject, as
believe, to Il very great fire risk.
