White House attaches are of the opin

enthusiastic construction upon that
letter which he received from President
Roosevelt. What it did contain was a
Christmas greeting, and an invitation
from the President to the pugilist to call
on him, should his wanderings ever
bring him to the capital. The Presl-
dent is acquainted with FitzsimmOns,
who last Christmas presented him a
horseshoe of his own handmade and re
ceived letter of thanks in return. 10
some mysterious manner the contents of
this letter became public property short

Death of Charles T. Yerkes.

Charles T. Yerkes, the noted railway
financier of Chicago and London, died
yesterday in his apartments at the Wal
dorf-Astoria Hotel, New York, where
he had been i'll for more than six weeks.
Mr.. Yerkes suffered from complica-
ton of diseases, growing out OF severe
cold, which he contracted early in the
fall. Since Thursday night the patient
had been kept alive by strong slimu-
lants.
Att O'Clock yesterday Mrs Yerke'
was telephoned that her husband was
dying and she went to the MOTEL, thus
bringing about a death bed reconciia-
ton between the millionaire and his
estranged wife. During his entire i'll
ness, which lasted for six weeks, she
had not been in the sick room. His Ill
ness brought to the public the fac; of a
disagreement between the couple. Mrs.
Yerkes continued living at her Fifth
avenue home while her husband was
i'll at the Waldorf-Astoria. At no time
did she 60 to see him. Mr.. Yerkes was
born in Philadelphia, June 20, 1887.

tween the two cities. The company
will also during the summer place new
steamer on the route between this city aud
Norfolk. which will also call at certain
river points. The means OF communi-
cation between Alexandria and Wash
ington, while materially improved OF late,
within the next few months will leave
nothing to be desired, as boats and
trains will be arriving at and departing
form each city at short intervals.
The county adjoining Alexandria is
being rapidly built up. In fact new
towns have sprung up during the past
wears north south and west Of Alexandria.
As has heretofore been stated, move
ment is taking shape to place all the
surrounding places under the iurisdic-
ton of Alexandria. Other cities in
Virginia are now engaged in similar
movements and their exertiOns are being
crowned with success.
With conservatism and by following
the paths of sound business principles,
our city is gradually forging ahead, and
it is hoped that the year upon which we
are about to enter may prove prosperous
aud happy to all.

THE ALEXANDRIA GAZETTE.

With today's issue the Gazette closes
its 1O6th volume. The paper, however,
has fourished in three centuries, rs
copies Of the Alexandra Gazette are oc-
casionslly unearthed bearing dates OF the
last decade of the eighteenth century.
There can be no doubt that the paper
had its birth almost synchrOnous with
that of the American nation. Its files
run back to the first year of the nine
teenth century, but there are bound vol
umes in existence anterior to that, one
containing am account of the death OF
George Washington, which occurred in
December, 1899.
Throughout all the ups and downs OF
Alexandria the Gazette has appeared al
most as regularly as the rise of the sun,
and has been welcome visitor in thous'
ands of households of past generations
as well as present, extending over this
entire Congressional district, or, moe
properly, what il now known as Eastern
Virginia. In fact for many years it was
the official paper for all this section OF
Virginia. While it still circulates over
the same area as of old, the Gazette Is
sent to nearly every part Of the country,
as well as to foreign places where Alex
andrans aud other Virginians are lOcat-
ed. 1t is no uncommon thing for A ex
andria merchants to receive orders from
the far west or thousand miles north
or south of this city by reason OF adver-
tisements which appear in the Gazette
The facilities enjoyed by the Gazette
for procuring the latest news, home,
national and foreign, are on the same
lines as those of the papers in large
cities, and the events Of the world ap-
pear in the Gazette as soon as they oc-
cur.
All possible means are used to make
the local department of the Gazette in
terestiug, and the city is cauvassed daily
with this end in view. At the close OF
each day its columns present all local
happenings of interest, as well as the
latest news from every quarter of the
globe.
There will be no relaxation of our
endeayOrs to maintain the standard the
paper has attained, and during the COM
ing year every effort will be made to in
crease itn popularity with all classes.
