terrific explosion occurred on Iona
Island, the United States raval station
in the Hudson, where immense quantities
of gunpowder and other explosives are

great that Hayerstraw, which is eight
miles below the island, was shaken as
though by an earthquake, and many win

get details from Iona, as the telegraph
and telephone wires to the place are
down. The West Shore Railroad which
passes within 500 yards of the Island, is

a prominent figure in this section OF the
State, and while a native of Fairfax, he
has from his early days spent much OF his
time in Alexandria. He is personally
acquainted with majority of our peo-
pie. at least, is throughly conversant with
their wants and will devote his undi-
vided attention to his constituents here

Prince William and Fairfax. All con-
cede that he will prove an able and
energetic representative. Mr. Cation,
who has been reelected to represent the
CITY and county in the House of Dele
gates, already has a legislative record,
and so acceptable has he been to mem
bers of both parties that no one contested
his return to his old position. His
constituents may rest assured that he
will be as untiring in their interests in
the future as he has ever been in the
mast.

AFTER ALL the silly caricatures OF the

of New York, az they have often done
before, have grown tired of Performers"

tidal wave was turned short time ago.
The tiger, like the beast of the Apoc-
alypse, has had his deadly wound healed,
and is once more ITSELF Readers Of
New York papers have recently become
weary of pictures of the huge feline with
a red light to its caudal appendage, it
being a well-known fact that the ere
formers" have tolerated as much free
and-easy life in the metropolis as was
ever imputed to their predecessors. Re
formers always promise much, and in
their campaign in New York against the
powers which existed before the reins of
the great city were placed i'll their hands
they pretended they would do numer-
Gus things which were beyond their
power and many believe averse to their
inclinations. The tiger, after all, proved
to be equally as clean beast as the
nondescript created by its enemies. I'm
like that of Tammany, that of the
fusionists had many heads, all looking
in opposite directions. 1t was an
amalgamation of republicans, disap-
pointed democrats and some who had no
particular political principles except
animosity toward Tammany Hall. Such
composite geological specimens which
occasionally appear in the political
world are generally short lived. They
are often huge in proportions, but in a
short time they become meIe reminis-
cences. One or the other of the two
great parties must eventually rule.
"Fusionists,'' although occasionally
successful, have always lacked cohe
rency, and those vino temporarily pool
their interests in times of political ex-
element, when the same subsidies in
variably return to Retrospective camps.

As the triple alliance is now little more
