ALEXANDRIA, VA, NOV. q

ALEXANDRIA, VA, NOV, n.
The question as to the annexation OF
outlying territory to the city of Alexan-
dria, as set forth In an ordinance to be
put on Its third reading at city council
tomorrow night, continues to be one of
the principal topics of discussion in
Alexandra.
Opinion Is equally divided as to the
benefits to be derived from the exteh-
sion of the city's limits. The progress
sive element Is Overwhelmingly In favor
Of the project, while the self-styled
conservatives are just as greatly OPP
posed.
The principal argument advanced by
the latter faction Is that Alexandria al
ready has more than she can we'll take
care Of at the present time; that her
bonded debt q too great to admit OF
any increase; that for the next five
years, should the territory, be annexed
to the city, no revenue would be derivei
from 1t, while great amount Of money
vould have to be expended in fire and
police protection. educational facilities
and street improvements. The other side
quotes the case of former Governor
Shepherd, of the District of Columbia,
who saw far enough ahead to proceed
with improvements, in spite OF the OPP
position of many, and whose work now
Is universally commended.
In some instances attorneys have been
employed to combat the annexation
measure.

In behalf of the members of the

the church has picked up in a most re-
markable degree in all of, it's depart
ments. The Sunday school has doubled
its membership and the audiences have
been on the increase. One of the strong
factors of Mr.. Evans success in his
passionate has been the loyal co-opera-
ton and backing which he has re-
ceived from the men of the parish, not
only have they been attentive to the
business of the church as never be-
fore but they also have been most reg
ular in their attendance at the re-

y gentleman, whose name could not
be ascertained, who lives in Farming
dale, and drives to and from the quar-
ries at Granite Hill every day, had a
narrow escape from being struck, Fri
day morning, by the early passenger
train going east. The horse is a spirit
ed one. Along Second street the Maine
Central runs parallel for some dis
lance. The horse became frightened at
the approaching train and started a
race and would have kept ahead had
not the gates fer the Second street
crossing been down. AS it was, he
made wild dash into the gate on the
south side and tore it from it's fas-
Jennings. This had a tendency to check
the animal and allow the train to get
ahead and cross the street. Mr.. kelso.
the gateman, saw the danger and
quickly raised the gate on the north
side allowing the horse to pass on.
No damage was done either to the
driver, horse or vehicle which is con-
sidered almost miraculous. The driver
was poweTless in checking the horse
and he rushed across the track in the
rear of the passing train by scarcely
two seconds Had he not been check
ed by coming in contact with the
south gate he undoubtedly would have
been insfront instead of the rear of the
train and a terrible accident would
have been the result.

The New Haven gives as its reason
for desiring to purchase the Rutland
