ness. There are now lying at Alexandra
wharves, loading ties. two large vessels
whose united cargoes will be about 10000
ties. At points down the river several
smaller vessels are lying, taking ties aboard,
and all these cargoes will go to Boston,
Philadelphia or other points in the north.
Within the past two months, it is stated.
six schooners have taken cargoes Of ties
away from Alexandria. and several other
vessels are under charter to come there to
load The big four-masted Schooner E.
Starr Jones has almost completed taking
her cargo aboard, and the three-master
William P. Hood was brought into port Sat-
urday to load. The Hood took cargo of
ties to Boston once before this season. hav.
ing arrived here while the river was full Of
ice. She discharged cargo from Boston
at Norfolk, and was brought here light by
the tug Camilla. The immense quantities
Of ties that are being shipped north from
Alexandria are being cut in the forests

day excursion season Is now in full swing,

ly open.

The Doorway.


In the heart of the day I strayed to the
heart of the tangled wood,
And there, like a dream, before me a DESC
late portal stood
Strange and solemn and somber 1t stood
and l was alone;
Mystery fell like fog fear swept by like
moan.
1t was bolted strongly above, and bolted
below again
And one of the bolts was Sorrow and the
other bolt was Pain.
Two dim lights hung in the shadow. two
red and misty spheres.
And my soul sank as l saw them for I
knew they were Blood and Tears.
The way was lost behind me. backward I
dared not co.
beat upon the portal. and my heart broke
with the blow.
Bruised and bleeding and blinded, forced
the bolts to move
I passed through the dreadful doorway .
and the other side was Love-

Refuge of the Boy.


A fellows father knows a lot
OF office work and such.
But when ii comes to things like what
A boy wants, he amt much
For when it comes to cuts or warts
Or stone bruise on your toes,
A fellows father don't know, but
A fellows mother knows
A fellows father, he looks wise.
ana says: "A-hem. A-hem.'
But when 1t comes to cakes and pies,
What does he know of them?
He knows the price of wheat and rye
And corn and oats, it's true,
But If you got the leg ache, why,
He don't know what to do.
And If you burned your back the time
That you went in to swim,
And want some stuff to heal it, why.
You never go to him,
Because he doesn't know a thing
About such things as those
But you just bet. and don't forget.
A fellows mother knows
And If your nose is sunburned, till
It's all peeled of, and you
Go to him for some healin' stuff.
He don't know what to do.
He's just as helpless as can be:
But when a fellow goes
And asks his mother, why. YOU see.
A fellows mother knows
A fellows father knows lot,
But it amt any use,
So II fellows really got
The leg ache or bruise.
Or IL there's anything he wants
He gets right up and goes
And asks his mother, for, you see,
A fellows mother knows.

Half Rose, Half Thorn.

A rose once grew within a garden fair.
And lived upon the sunshine and the dew:
And Cupid, one day passing. saw it there,
And. seeing. thought the lovely rose to
woo.
His yearning heart went out unto the rose
Each summer night, and with each early
morn,
But found, alas, as many a poor heart
knows.
That love is half a rose and half thorn.
A blight fell on the beauteous rose one day,
And pale 1t grew, the fairest rose Of
years;
And soon, alas! 1t faded quite away,
And Cupid 10! was left alone in tears.
1t was the old. old story anew
That lives we know. with every night and
That with each joy there is sadness, too,
For love is half rose and half a thorn.
oh, love, how sweet thou art!
And yet, each night and morn
We learn to know. yes, every heart,
That love is half a rose and half a thorn.

A few days ago the Record was call
ed down for using the name of a doc
tor in connection with a case. The
doctor explained that the medical
society had a book in which all such
clippings were pasted and that the
offending member was required to
give a satisfactory explanation to the
society as to how his name happened
to get INTO print. Since the doctors
are so insistent in their boycott of
free advertising, the Record has de
cided upon a rule of its own which
it hopes will prevent a repetition of
any offense on the part of the paper.
In future we shall be careful to ex-
