ALEXANDRIA NEWS NOTES

ALEXANDRIA. Va. March 1I.-Joseph
L. Crupper for seven years postmaster
of this city, announced this evening that
he would not be a candidate for reap
pointnent when his term expires in
April. 1906.
The announcement comes as a sur
prise to his many friends, all of whom
expected that he would again be can
didate for the position which he has
filled satisfactorily to the citizens OF
Alexandria for the past seven years.
Mr. Crupper gives as his reason that
the business of the Alexandria postof-
flee is increasing so rapidly that he viii
be una BILE, with his business in Wash
ington, to give the postoffiee the atten-
ton it should have in the future
Mr. Crupper states that his determine
ton not to be a candidate again was in
no way influenced by the resignation of
Park Agnew as collector OF internal
revenue.
Reside those mentioned IN this even
ing's Times. Thomas F. Burroughs, who
for number of years past has beer
the assistant postmaster of Alexandria,
has announced his intention of becom-
ing n candidate for postmaster. He has
issued . circular asking his friends not
to ita<orse anyone until he has had
time TO present his claims to them.

LACE CURTAIN AND GAS
JET CAUSE BAD BLAZE
Thousand Dollars Damage Done and
Much Excitement Caused by Fire
in Fourteenth Street

Damage amounting to $1,000 was done
In the Manhattan building, III Four
teenth street northwest, last night, by
fire supposed to have been caused by
lace curtains touching a gas jet. It Is
said the damage is covered by insurance
Mrs. George NJ Peck was leaning out
of the front window of her rooms on the
top floor OF the building at the time the
fire was discovered.
The lower floors of the building are
used as offices and several families use
the upper stories az living apartments
The woman says the first intimation she
had of fire was when she heard the
fire apparatus bells changing outside her
home.
Policeman Lewis. of the First precinct,
discovered the fire and turned In an
alarm from box 161, at New York avenue
and Fourteenth street, and almost all
Of the downtown companies were on the
scene In a few moments,
Some difficulty was experienced In get
ting the hose up the ladders thrown
against the upper windows of the build
! Ing. but the firemen succeeded In ex-
tinguishing the flames after half an
| hours work.

HIDDEN SPRINGS
CAUSING DAMAGE
Ground Around the First
Street Tunnel Sinks.
CRACKS IN THE SIDEWALK
Kumors That the Library Statues Suf-
fer Found to Be Untrue.
No Danger.
CRACKS IN THE SIDEWALK

Rumors, of unknown origin. that a
serious cave-in was threatened at The
new tunnel under First street north
east, in front of the Congressional Lii
brary. were afioat in many sections of
the city yesterday
As a result many persons paid visits
TO the scene, but all that rewarded their
trouble was the finding after careful
search, of a few small cracks in the
sidewalk surrounding the east end of
the Capitol grounds
The report passed through several
channels at the District building, and
| finally reached the office of Capt j. J.
Morrow, assistant to the Engineer Com
missioner.
The latter called up the office of the
superintendent of the Library and in
quired what truth there was in the
statement that the sinking of ground in
First street might cause damage to
the valuable Neptune statue at the
main entrance to the Library building
Investigations were promptly made and
the encouraging reply was that there
was nothing in it.
Blocks Tilted.
Examination of the affected area in
First street showed that it embraced
not more than a dozen paving blocks
within a space thirty feet long by FIVE
feet wide. Some of the blocks were tilted
at an angle and a few were broken, but
the damage seemed very slight
tour through the underground work
ings showed that the Neptune statue
could not possibly be affected because
the main bore has not get reached a
point opposite TO 1t.
Excavation Work.
AT the present time, too, :l1e workmen
! are excavating the western half OF the
tunnel, and any surface disturbances for
months to come will be confined to the
west side of First street. many feet
away from even the edge OF the walk
fronting the Library.
In speaking of the sinking of the
ground Indicated by the cracks in the
sidewalks, engineers in charge of ex-
eavatine for the tunnel declared that
nothing serious was threatened as none
of the timber bracing within the tunnel
showed traces of bending or being other
wise disturbed. They accounted for the
present slight trouble as due to much
water from hidden springs being pumped
out as the tunnel work progresses.

An amusing scene in connection with
the running of the trains on the Wash

between Washington and Mt. Vernon
was witnessed in this city this after

Ington streets. After d number Of at
tempts to get the car started the pas
sengers Were gotten out of the car and
the car was run past Alfred street, the
passengers walking behind. They then
boarded the car and continued on their
way a slight hill runs from Pitt to
above Alfred street, and this is said to
have been the cause of the staiiing of
the car The procedure was witnessed
by numbers of persons with great

The way that fashionable folk have
sdopted the crepe de chine craze Is
really something to marvel at. One
GOES il in the smartest of shirtwaist
suits for morning wear, with the skirt
stbat clears the ground and Just shows
the tin of the shiny black leather
shoe. One sees it in the more elabo-
rate luncheon aid afternoon frocks,
where frills and laces are called upon

sees it in all of the newest tones. in
the novel coral and geranium pinks.
the new almond, olive, and bronze
green; in the shot, the printed. and
the damasse effects for the Eandsom-
est of dinner anG ball gowns; and
then there is a wealth of elaboration,
hand embroideries, real laces. en-
piecements that glisten with tiny
spangles and mock jewels, and with
empire sashes OF chiffon and ace thar
bring out the dull luster of The crepe
to perfection. For any and all &C.
casions the crepe de chine gown is
the correct thing; the only thing to
know is how to fashion 1t to meet the
special requirements of each. And
this is what the smart girl pr!des her
self that she can do, with the result
that she presents a distinguished ap
pearance in every gown Of her crepe
de chine repertoire.

senarate Goats.

For those long and loose separate
coats that are so much admired, and
which when well chosen can be made
becoming to any girl, the broad-tall
Velours is a marked fayorite. This
Initiates the markings of the broad
tail or baby lamb to such perfection
that one almost imagines furry LOOK
to the velvet The Irish chochet trim
mings are simply stunning with this
material; and the loose designs can
rapidly be copied by the girl who
knows how to sew, for there is no
semblance Of lift to them. The
only thing is to get the sleeves big
enough and puffy enough; and to have
just the correct shawl point in the
back. For the vogue of the shawl
point is one Of the coming season g
fads.
