LETTER FROM FAIRFAX.

CORRESPONDENCE of the Alexandria Gazette. ]
Mr.. VIM. F. HALEY, a well known
and highly respected citizen of this dis
trict. died on the l4th, and was buried
this afternoon in the old family burying
ground at his late residence, followed by
a large concourse of friends and rela-
tives. He spent the whole of his life Of
50 years, died, and is now buried on the
same farm where he was born. He was
good citizen, a kind neighbor, anc
though confined to his home for several
wears past by the infirmities of age and
poor health, will be greatly missed by
this community.
The barn of Mr.. Isaiah Davis, on the
Ok road, below Stoneleigh, with its en-
tire contents-houses, cattle, provender,
harness. &C., was destroyed by fire last
night about 10 o'clock. The origin Of
the fire is unknown. The loss is quite
a serious one, though / learn 1t Is
partially covered by insurance.
Mr.. Davis is an industrious, deserving
man and worthy citizen, and has the
sympathy of the entire community.
The usual quiet of this section he
been seriously disturbed for some days
by the antics of a dog supposed to b'
mad-not the proverbial ''bobtail yallel
dog" but little, insignificant "blacl
and TAM" that succeeded in running
amuck," visiting every house along the
roads he travelled, and biting every dot
he encountered.
After nipping all the dogs on "Po
hick," he called at Mr.. Magner,s, an'
bit three-one at Mr.. Deyers's three o
more at Mr.. Copperthites', and fnall.

known is still on his tour ofinnocnlation
There is quite an unusual excitement
about the matter, and up to TIN
time. some sixteen of the bitten dog
have been killed by their owners. /

dogs. but it should be the means o
diminishing the number OF WORTHLESS

ELOPED WITH 9IAVALO.
Girl Runs Away With
"Loop the Loop" Star.

Des Moines. Ia. May 21.-The Capital
says: Ira Scott. OF Emporia. kas. ar
rived in the city on the Chicago Great
Western train at 2:30 o'clock this morn
ing and fairly ran with all his might to
the police station where he expected to
find his daughter Irna. When he was
told that the police had not arrested the
girl ana the loop the loop" man, with
whom, it is alleged, she elOped. Scott
was furious. He ranted and tore his
hair, but it did no good for he was just
two hours and twenty minutes too late.
His fair daughter had left the city with
the show about midnight.
Scott was very much disturbed and
the officers felt sorry for him. He said
that his daughter Irma, in company
with another Emporia girl, had been to
the circus last week and became ac~
Quainted with the loop the loop man.
Scott persisted in calling him that
id loop the loop man." The girls
were, it is claimed, impressed by the
stories told by the loop the loop man
to the effect that he earned salary of
them along in the shows palace car and
give them the best time they ever had
in their lives. Life had been mite
humdfum for Irma, and under the daZ
zling lights of the circus tents she
promised to accompany the loop the
loop man.. She hurried home and told
Papa and Mamma Scott that she in
tended to stay all night with her friend,
Irma nor Ethel were to be found in
Emporia. They had gone with the
circus. A cousin of the girl by the
name of Lawson was dispatched ar
once to overtake the show. He ar
rived here Monday morning and i'll
company with Chief Hardin went to the
show grounds.
Diavalo, the loop the loop man." was
found and he was accompanied by a
very pretty girl who said that she was
Mrs. Diavalo. Chief Hardin called III
the young cousin and he looked at the
woman who said that she was the
mans wife. Hardin asked if that was
the missing girl and the youthful
beardless cousin couldn't say for sure.
He was impressed with a belief that
the girl was his cousin. but declared
that she had changed some way and
he wasn't exactly sure whether she was
the right girl or not He wanted her
arrested. however. but Chief Hardin
declined to make the arrest on the
ground that there was no evidence to
show that the woman was not what she
claimed to be. Later in the day Chief
Bracket received a telegram from
Scott at EmpOria telling him to arrest
and hold the girl who was with the
circus. This information was so lack
ing in definiteness that the chief of the
department could not act.
The telegram was also sent upon the
authority of Mr.. Scott individually and
by no authority which could in any
sense be taken as official. Chief Hardin.
in the absence of anything but half
identification from the cousin, refused
to make the arrest and the girl went on
her way. The police are by no means
sure as vet that the woman with Di-
avalo is not his wife or that she is Miss
Irma Scott of Emporia. Mr.. Scott says
that he is certain she is his daughter.
He relies on the description of the po-
lice and says that his daughter is just

LABOR UNIONS.
They Are Discussed by Bishop Potter
at Dinner.

Orange, n. J., May 21.-Speaking on
labor unions at a dinner of the Civic
club of Orange last night, Bishop Henry
c. Potter said the conditions which
confront the people of America are
largely of their own making. He de-
clared that one person had more to do
with the situation than any one else
and that was the manager of a shop or
factory. not because he tried to under
stand the interests of the working man.
but because he wanted to get out of the
working man all he possibly could for
the benefit of his employer, nothing
more.
Il believe said Bishop Potter, 1.-The
folly of the labor organizations in sew
eral instances have alienated a great
deal of the sympathy that would other
wise have gone to them One thing we
must realize is that the community is
not made up of either 1aborers or cap
italists, but rather of those between
who are very largely affected by these
differences.
THE time may come when organized
labor may make itself so unpleasant
that it may not be able to stay in New
York The great stumbling block in
organized labor is that the freedom of
the individual is invaded, and that has
got to be corrected.

try most Of his art treasures that are

Americans viii have an opportunity of

tons in the world
Had Mr.. Morgan imported them a
year ago he would have been obliged to
pay almost $500 600 as duty.
Many OF the paintings and smaller
antiques have been in Mr.. MOrgan's
Park Lane house for more than a year
and therefore come under the head of
household effects which are not dutfa-
bic. 1t is said NJ Morgan's lease Of A
fine home in Park Lane was made more
with a view to obtaining a legal resi-
dence for his art treasures than to have

such a looking girl as the detectives
saw at the show grounds yesterday.
Mr. Scott left this morning for Mar
shaltown. He is still looking for the
loop the loop man" or any other man
who may have any knowledge of the
wherea bouts of his beautiful daughter.
Miss Irma was IS years of age and
pupil in the Emporia, Kas., high school.
She is said to be an intelligent girl and
had good home in Emporia. Her par
ents are attendants at the Methodist
church and the girl belonged to several
societies of young people Mr., Scott
told the police that he did not know a
great deal about the girl who is alleged
to have left Emporia to join the show
the same time that Miss Scott did.
While in the city the loop the loop
man. and his wife stopped at the Kirk
wood house. There IS no information in
the hands of the police department to
prove that they were not rightfully
married. The father of Miss Scott, tax
ing it for granted the woman with Dia-
valo is his daughter, does not know but
what the couple have beer properly
married. At the hotel yesterday and
Sunday Mrs. Diavalo as she was called,
received many compliments upon her
beauty. She is a young girl of very
pleasing appearance and a remarkably
pretty face. She appears to be about 10
years of age Several of the guests at
the hotel were led to remark that she
did not look like the majority of women
his wife demeaned themselves perfectly
proper for married people and no sus-
picion was held by the people about the
hotel against the couple. In fact, the
young people were warmly welcomed at
the hotel and highly spoken of.

Independent of the rest would be on the
Belt line, possibly where the present
station is on South Grand avenue The
Santa Fe can save a half hour or more
on train bound from Kansas to Chi
cagO by not using the union depot but
sending its cars from the junction
above Toad-a-Loup direct to Grand
avenue and the Belt line. It would
save backing around and slow running
inside the city. With the Rock Island
furnishing a direct route to St Louis,
Chicago and an almost direct line to
the northern cities, the Santa Fe a di-
rect line TO Chicago. the Milwaukee
covering the prairie states north the
three big roads would furnish a direct
outlet east to almost any large city and
its contiguous territory. AS for the
business west when the Rock Island,
Santa Fe and Frisco trains are all in at
night there are not many more people
coming from Kansas, Colorado, Okla
homa, Texas or states west as far as
California that day. They bring the
major part Of the business that comes
from the west and southwest and a
joint station for these four roads would
do a pretty heavy union depot business.

SPECIAL HARVEST RATE.
Railroads Facilitate Bringing in
Men.

Men.
At the instigation of T. B. Gerow, d.
rector of the state free employment bu-
reau, the railroads leading into Kansas
have made a special harvest hand rate
from Chicago. Bloomington and Peoria.
Ill, and St. Louis, to points in the
Kansas wheat belt. The rate will be
one fare plus 81, and it will be in force
on the first and third Tuesdays Of June.
In addition to that a rate of 1 cent
mile will be made for parties of five or
more from Missouri river points, Fort
Scott and other eastern Kansas points,
to all points in the wheat belt, COM
mencing with the opening of harvest
probably about June 10. The exact date
will be determined later, and the rates
will be in effect every day during the
harvest rush, instead of only two days
a week as last year.
Mr. Gerow is sending out detailed in
formation to eastern papers on the sub
ject of Kansas harvest hands In view
of additional information which has
come to him since the estimate of the
hands which will be needed as made
last week, he has raised his estimate
from 20. 600 to $4,000. He already has on
file estimates from the various wheat
counties calling for over $1,000 men, and
there are some localities still to hear
from. Mr.. Gerow believes that many OF
this army of men viii have to CONS
from as Tar east DIS OIllU anu 1uNAoAAca
In the information which he sends out
he urges that all incoming hands shall
have enough money to tide them over
2 few DAYS until they get located in the
wheat belt. He also says:
Employment at wages averaging
from 81 so to $3.50 per day. according to
