home OF the veterans on the south
side OF Prince street, near Columbus,
was purchased by the Woman's Aux

organizations and citizens generally. IL
was thought by some that the under
taking would prove heavy burden to
the little band and their coadjutors,
but the lady friends of the camp, rising
superior to all difficulties, went to work
with a will and one payment after
another has been met until all claims
have been satisfied. A few subscriptions
have vet TO be collected, and the sum
realized will be used in procuring new

ATHLETICS.

The citizens OF Alexandria can well
feel proud OF the school that bears the
name OF "The George Washington
High School. " The corps OF teachers
in the various grades are the equals OF
any in the same class in the United
States, and are ever ready to instruct
the young men placed in their care to
the best OF their ability. 1t is not nee
essary to name the different branches
of studies in this grand old school, as
it comprises everything that will bring
success to the boys in the future if they
only try to master what is taught them
by this excellent staff OF instructors.
The pupils are, as rule, n jolly set OF
Youngsters, fond OF all kinds Of athletic
games, but as they have no contrivances
to aid them to practice during recess
have to be content with running, etc.
II some friend OF the boys in the City
Council perhaps a former pupil him
SELF, would aid in securing athletic
apparatus for use in the building on
Washington street, they would be doing
a most gracious favor and would win
the everlasting gratitude OF all concern
ed. The sum OF one hundred dollars
would be sufficient to purchase every
necessary. ARROW"

OF excellent coaching. Intense rivalry

Prediction by a national official OF

Denver, COL, newspapers whose press
men are on strike will encounter de-
struction before the publishers win,
startled the Denver Trades and
Labor Assembly at a meeting sun
day.
The speaker was Albert B. Kreltler,
third vice president OF the International
Printing Freshmen and Assistants
Union OF North America, who appear
ed before the assembly asking aid IN
the strike. When he had finished a
committee was appointed to investigate
the situation.
81 tell you the buildings will blow up
before this thing is settled the way the
publishers want to settle it," ne
said. He finished his speech amid
silence.
Persons who attended the assembly
directed attention to tho seemingly
careful phrasing Of the prediction,
particularly to the fact that Kreitler
did not say the buildings would be
blown up"
