THE RED CROSS.

A red cross stamp may be purchased
for u cent. When purchased it will
not be good for postage, but it will mean
something crcditable for the man who
uses it as a seal on the reverse side Of
his letter or on the Christmas package.
The man who places a red cross stamp
on his letter thereby gives to the
world his endorsement Of one Of the
greatest of modern agencies of mercy
and love. The act is by no means a
Haunting abroad Of a noble sentiment,
but it is Il specific recommendation of
the work Of the Red Cross Society to all
into whose hands the letter shall come
through whose hands it shall pass.
Now, as Christmas draws nigh, when
i'll All Christian lands shall tear
fully and praverfuIly, i~oyfully and 10y

packages sent to loved ones. with

chosen by this great bcneyOlence for

NEGROES ON RAMPAGE.
Officer Bell Shot in Leg, Henry
Cheshire Cut on Neck and Two
Negroes Shot.

Considerable excitement was caus-
ed in the northeast section of the city
about $50 o'clock last night by five
negroes who came here from Washing
ton and proceeded to the locality re-
ferred to. They were looking for
trouble and all seemed to have been
armed.
After they had entered two saloons
and terrorized the inmates, causing
general alarm in the neighborhood,
the police appeared. The outlaws
were as defiant toward them as to
others they had attacked, and in at
tempting to quell the disturbance Of
ficer Charles Bell was shot in the left
leg and Henry Cheshire, who was aid
ing the officer was cut on the neck.
A bullet struck Office Bell on the
left thigh, but merely scratched the
flesh.
John Shepherd and Hutchins Hans
borough, both colored, were also shot
in the melee. Shepherd was shot in
the arm, and his wound is not DANCE
rous, but HaIsborough received a
bullet in the back, and his condition
is serious.
The five men got off the Washington
electric train near the city and walk
ing down the road entered a saloon in
the northeastern section of the city
where they started fight and several
shots were fired. Leaving the saloon,
they soon had the place in an uproar
Officer Bell hearing of the trouble
went to the saloon.
The men again pulled their revol-
vers and fired on the policeman, one
of the bullets striking him in the leg.
They were joined by number of 9TH
or colored men who were lounging in
the saloon and the neighborhood. The
belligerents left the saloon and while
the disorder was at its height Chesh-
ire attempted to restore order when
he was cut.
The wounding of the two men SEEM
ed to brighten the rioters, and they
quickly dispersed. The entire police
force of the city later secured the
northern end of town for the men who
started the trouble. The police are
looking for Scott Blackburn, colored,
thirty years old, who lives in AleXan-
dria in connection with the case.
Officer Bell and Henry Cheshire
and two wounded negroes were treat
ed at the Alexandria Hospital.

Brigade visitors at the council

the four bids offered by paving COM

have to be paid. New ordinances will
be passed, new bids called for, and

These are the words of shrewd and

the view of every sane democratic

democrats their only hope of triumph
The republicans could lose 100000
votes and still elect Taft. The fear
that the Roosevelt detection will de-

of votes depresses the republicans and
encourages democrats. If there were
any approach to unity IN the repub-

bigger victory even than they gained
