Want Excise Board.

Messrs. Machen Il Moncure will this
evening appear before the Board OF oI,
pervisors OF Alexandria county and ask
the board for the appointment Of an ex-
else board. There is contention ina'
the Mann law does not set aside the
special law providing for the appoint
ment Of an excise board for the county
though that special law has been dead
letter for the past several years. The re-
fusal of Judge Nicol to grant any liqnor
licenses in the county is given as the
reason for the application for the reap
pointment of the excise board.
A telephone message from the County
Court House this evening stated thai
the Supervisors laid over till the mex
meeting the application tor the appoint
ment OF an excise board.

Chas. Henry Reeves Is the Father
of Fifteen Children.

Chas. Henry Reeves is trusted
colored empIoye in the service of Di-
vision Superintendent Rady of the 1.
& G. N, and he is also the father of
fifteen, the last two having just ar
rived. Chas. Henry says he was al
ways superstitious, and did not think
thirteen children was calculated to
bring him good luck, and now that he
passed up the hood number he is
happy again. The last two are his
first twins, and he is proud of them.
They also make a record for him of
three births into his family within a
year. The attention of the head of
the nation should be called to this
matter. Chas. Henry also boasts that
they are all products of Palestine, he
himself being a native, having been
born in two hundred yards of the pas
senger depot, where he now works.
