HISTORY OF SEWERS
MALE,XANDRLA CITY
Fe10 OniY Wee Constructed in the Old City Duzino the
Past Century.

Our neighbor city. Alexandria, is now
well entering upon a career of local
street and sewer improvement. In the
hrst 100 years OF its existence it laid
but about 300 feet of sewer; in the last
twenty years it has put down several
miles, and the work is still In progress.
In the original topography of the town
II consisted Of one hill, but afterward a
second and finally third came within
the boundary.
The first valley west of the river was
that Of OrOnocO Creek. which ran south
west from the foot of General Washing
tons hill to Pitt Street to the stream
north Of the old tobacco warehouse at
Fishtown. The next ravines were those
which crossed Washington Street about
King. and ran into the Oronoco Creek
ravine: the third was the Timber Branch
ravine. which crossed King Street at
Henry. and running southeast for over
a mile. ended in Hunting Creek. while
still further west. Hoof's Run made the
utmost west boundary OF the town.
The OrOnOco Greek valley was partial
ly filled, but remained the lowest por-
ton OF the town. and was frequently
Hooded, even at King Street. but in the
past twenty years a sewer has been con-
structed along that street to Oronoco.

the mouth Of the old creek north of

MRS. GOBLET SEEKS
A FORMAL GROOM
The Last One She Had Addressed
Her From Seat.

NEWPORT, Aug. 6.-Mrs. Ogden Goelet
Is a stickler for form, as a result of
which groom who had been in her en-
ploy many years is looking for another
place, and Mrs. Goelet is having he
country for miles around searching Cor
big six-footer to sit on the box seat
OF her best turnout beside her coach
man.
The groom's fatal error was a natural
one. but ii appears to be of a nature
that even long and faithful service can
not condone. Mrs. Goelet had ordered
the carriage to take her 10 the villa
OF Mrs. John Thompson Spencer. OF
Philadelphia, upon whom Mrs Goelet
wished TO call The groom directed the
coachman to the right place, but not
being sure, turned in his seat and very
humbly queried OF his mistress:
Beg pardon. madame, but is this the
placer"
Mrs. Goelet directed that he get of
the box Immediately, walk to the stable
and call for his salary the next morning.
The man had omitted to get down from
his high seat before he addressed Mrs.
Goelet.
The joke, however, If there is any in
the matter, is on Mrs. Goelet. as the
groom IS showing in his quest of place
fattering references she had given him
In days gone by.

these. however. were covered I'D about
the close Of the Revolutionary War.
The progress Of the town westward
rendered necessary a sewer along the
upper portion OF Timber Branch. which
rose north OF the town and flowed
through IT. and in 1917 a sewer was built
from near Cameron Street along Henry to
the intersection of Duke and Henry
Streets, and every street was filled I'D to
grade. This remained the only Alexan-
dria sewer for about sixty years.
At the building OF the new postoffice,
about 1858, the United States made q
sewer on South St. Asaph Street from
the postoftice TO Timber Branch, or Tan
house Drain, as this branch had come
10 be called. One or two private sewers
from Fairfax Street to the river had
also been laid down. In late years the
city has constructed a long sewer from
along the course of what was once Tim
Der Branch from Duke and Henry Streets
in southwest direction to Franklin and
Royal Streets at Yates garden, thence
southwest the old branch remains open.
Within the past four or five years the
city has constructed several miles Of
sewers running directly to the Potomac
River, or into the Orinoco Creek. or
Timber Branch sewers. King Street IS
severed its entire extent, and there are
sewers on Prince, Cameron. Queen, St.
Asaph, Columbus, Washington, and other
streets, and sewer running south on
Royal Street from King to the Timber
Branch sewer at Wilkes Street The
surface water of the western portion Of
the town flows by several drains, most
OF them very unsightly, into Hooff's Run.
Some action for the improvement OF
these drains was taken at the last meet
ing Of the city council.
