fairness 10 all concerned.
Thanks to All.

The management of the Alexandria
Gazette and Of the contest want to
thank all of the ladies and their
friends, who worked so hard to make
the contest the success that it has
been. While all cannot win, the Ia
dies who have worked in the lost
cause feel that the experience they
have had in this battle of ballots has
been we'll worth the effort put forth
by them. They have, if nothing else,
found out who their friends are. Not
friends by profession, but friends by
example and precept. The manage
ment has but one regret, and that
is that u tour Of Europe can not be
awarded to all who have worked so
hard. They did nobly. They deserve
great credit for what they have done.

A REMARKABLY LOW TIDE.

A writer in Washington paper,
who signs himself C. T. Dant, L street,
in answer to query from correspon.
dent, makes the following statement:
Regarding the drought on the Po-
tomaca good many years ago. | was
resident OF Alexandra at the time,
and. although I cannot recall the exact
date, | remember perfectly the condi'
ton OF the river. On the afternoon oil
one day when the water had been very
low | was surprised on going down tc
the wharf to find that only small
stream, more like country creoh than
a river, was running in the channel.
Its course was as crooked as black
snake on the run. About q dozen
people on the Maryland eide opposite
Alexandria we're walking all over the
river bed bunting for miscellaneous art
icles. I can furnish you with the
names OF two or more persons who
saw the same thing.
A number OF Alexandria octogenar
ians as we'll as few who are nono
genarians threw up the sponge ate
reading the above. There have beer
some phenomenally low tides in th'
Potomac in past years, but nothing ap
preaching that mentioned above car
be recalled to the minds of any nov
living.

Montreal, April 16.-The last faint

Capt. Gambell, of the Virginian report

trip had been fruitless.

New York, April 13.-Hope for the
safety of passengers of the illfated
Titanic which foundered early Monday
morning off the Grand Banks of New
Foundland, other than those reported
by wireless by the Cunard Carpathia

cally abandoned this afternoon. Lat
est reports placed only S66 persons
and they chiefly women and children
on the Carpathia while even the offici-
ais of the White Star Line admitted
there was practically no hope for the
remaining l,492 of the ships company
of 1888 souls.
That all would have had 4 chance of
safety had there been lifeboats and
RATS enough was the general belief OF
navigat0rs. But the liner, newest and
greatest of trans Atlantic ships, car
ried only twenty large, modern life
boats and they were loaded to the gun

ten law of the sea, had been put over

WATTERSON SAYS HE
SHOT IN SELF DEFENSE
MISSOURI RIVER RANcHER IN
JAIL AWAITING TRIAL ON A
CHARGE OF MURDER.

Deputy Sheriff Lacock came in the
first of last week with Angelo Waiter
son, rancher who resides on the
Missouri river about 35 miles north
of Melstone. Watterson shot Fred
Asinhurst during quarrel the pre-.
ceding Friday and the wounded man
died as a result of his wound in a
hospital at Miles City two days later.
Watterson alleges that he shot
Asinhurst in self defense and then
did not aim to kill him. Asinhurst
was driving one of Watterson's teams
off of the latter's ranch when the
shot was fired. The bullet shattered
Asinhurst's leg between the ankle and
knee and killed one of the horses.
The wounded man might have been
saved had he submitted to an amputa-
tion of the limb, but said he preferred
to die. An information charging Wat
terson with murder will probably be
filed this week and the trial will take
place during the present term of court.
