"KILLS" A DUMMY.

1t is reported that the leisure moments
OF some OF the mechanics at the South
err Railway shops in this city during
working hours are spent 10 the shade OF
the coal chute just west of the main
buildings. Missing some Of the en-
ployees at times the general foreman
Mr.. S. K. Kelly, it is said, began to in
auire about them. As in all cases there
is some one who will "squesl' and the
foreman was told of this los6ng place.
he determined to break up the practice.
The men ia the meantime, as wise as the
foreman, placed dummy in the rafters
which had every appearance OF man
asleep. Mr. Kelly, it is said, creeped
MP the back way to the coal chute, and
his eyes glis.ened with delight as he
gazsd on what he supposed was an en-
pl0yse in the arms of Morpheus lying on
the rafters about 80 feet above bis head.
de was overcome with delight, II is
said, at the "fnd" and shouted "Oome
down, I've got YOU" Getting no re-
Spouse he ordered a cOlored employee to
climb to the raiters and shake the iDdi-
vidual, which order was obeyed. The
dummy fell and, it is said, the general
foreman with the remark "You have
killed man" disappeared with light
ming rapidity.

NEW HIGHWAY.

The movement for q modern highway
between Alexandra and Washington Is
growing. Assurances have been re-
ceived from road material aud rosd
machinery manufacturing companies
that ad will be given by them free OF
~charge 10 the building Of the proposed
road. The assistance from this source
promises to be large. but the citizens Of
the county OF Alexandria and the two
cities will, of course, be expected to
cooperate. A meeting for the purpose
of adopting a plan OF work will be held In
Alexandris on August II, when sd-
dresses will be made by United States
senators, engineers from the good roads
department of the federal government,
aud prominent citizens of Alexandra and
Washington.
The road between Alexandra and
Washington is approximately Z miles 10
length. II Is proposed 10 get the manu-
fscturers of road material, such rs btu
mInous binders and mixers, macadsm,
and Belgian block, to build q short
stretch OF sample road. 1t Is believed
that, with the aid of the citizens Of
Alexandria and Washington, and the
manufacturing concerns, the road can
be constructed at a small cost to the
section through which it passes
There have been several concerns to
signify their intention of entering into
the plan, which will constitute q road
building test, to determined the best
quality OF road material for use in the
porthern part of Virginia. Each of the
companies will build all or part of
short stretch-from 1000 yards to
half mile-Of sample road. When the
work shall have been completed COM
mittee, composed of the best road engi
neers aud experts In the country, will
