$4,000 Improving Its
Present Home.

Alexandria. Va. Jan. 5.-The building
committee OF Company G, First Virginia
Regiment. known as the Alexandria

for the remodeling OF Armory Hall. Ac-
cording to the plans. this structure. now

cost about $4,000. and one-half OF this
sum will be provided by the city. It Is,
however. provided that the title OF the
building will henceforth be vested in fee
simple in the City Council OF Alexandria
Its title is now with the company which

A second story Is to be added to the
building. 1t is planned to have a gym
nasium, reading room. smoking parlors
gun rooms and quarters for the officers
on the first floor, while the second floor
will be used as a drill hall
Already a large portion OF the money
necessary for the starting of the work
has been raised by the military COM
pany. and it is expected that work will
be begun early this spring. Members
oc this company do not anticipate any
trouble in raising the residue of the
money necessary to make a total of
$500. Many business men in the city
have already contributed to the fund.
