Will RESTORE OLD
ALEXANDRIA HOME
Lord Fairfax House Will Be Put
Back in Condition of Its
First Building.

Viewing with disapprovaI the ten
commercial purposes. or to destroy alto
gether, certain old landmarks that
might be handed down to posterity as
mute evidences of American history,
many persons who are interested in the
preservation of such landmarks are
pleased with the ideas of J. H. Crilly,
an Alexandria merchant. who has re-
Gently purchased the old Lord Fairfax
residence in Alexandria.
Mr.. Crilly has announced that he will
restore this old building to the same
condition it was when ;he celebrated
Englishman lived in il, or as near TO
fifty-odd years that have elapsed since
the death OF Lord Fairfax.
Built Century Ago.
The house. which is on Cameron
street, in Alexandria, is more than 100
years old. Ii was built. as nearly as
can be ascertained. about the year lSO0
by William Yeaton. The house was
ander. whose heirs collected rent on it
for more than seventy years.
Meantime. the title to the house,
not including the land on which it
stood, became entanGled and resulted
in its sale at public auction. 1t was
bought by the Bank OF Potomac and
sold to Lord Thomas Fairfax.
Mr.. Fairfax. as he preferred to be
called. occupied the house from the
year 1880 until his death in 1876 and
IL then passed into the hands of Dr..
Orlando Fairfax, who occupied il up
to the time of the civil war.
Workman's Wit Saves Mirror.
The house then passed into the
hands of Union people. and the hand
some mirror. which is still in the old
parlor. ;s said 10 have been saved
from being carried away by the wit
of an Alexandra workman. who was
called In to do the work Of removal
DisIikinR 10 see the heirloom taken
from the place where IL had stood
so long. he declared the mirror WIS
so bui4- into the wall that II would
be Impossible to remove it without
destroying 1t.
This mirror was gift of Gcnera
Lafayette to Governor Morris. a kins-
man Of the Fairfax family. who was
at that time minister to France.
Although considerably more than a
century old. the building is still
strong, and its interior is unusually
handsome. With comparatively small
expense. II is believed il NAV be re
stored TO almost the same condition
in which Lord FairfaE kept II.

BELGIUM MEN STRIKE
 FOR VOTING REFORM
Al Least 25O,OO0 Workers
 Fold Arms In Protest.

The vast political strike for man. with much skill by the Socialist work mems trade unions, is on. No disorder was reported. the Socialist leaders hav- ing given notice that 1t was to be a strike of the folded arms" At least a quarter of million men laid down their tools, according to reports given out in representative non-Socialist quarters
 Tn Brussels itself the strike must be looked for fin order to be found. Prob ably quarter of the worlSmen engaged in the suburbs, where the manufacto- ries are located. did not go into the shops
 Reports from the provinces tell of complete or nearly complete stoppage of work at Liege. Charleroi. Mons. La Louviere and other smaller cities. At Mons alone it is estimated that there are 10000 strikers and at La Louviere 20.o00, most of them belonging to the metal. carriage building and tobacco trades
 Raoul WRrocque. a deputy and mine owner, has declared his intention of subscribing $10.0oo daily to the strike fund
 The cause of the strike Is a protest against the refusal of the government to introduce the new franchise bin em- bodying equal universal suffrage.
 Every male Belgian at twenty-five and after one years residence in his commune and not legally disqualified has one vote. When he Is married or a widower with children and pays S1 a year direct taxation he receives a sec ond vote Two extra votes are given for the possession of property. univer- sity degrees and official employment.

Efforts Were Made to Assassinats Ruler.
 Another attempt was made to assas- sinate King Alfonso of Spain. Three shots were fired at him while be was on his way to the palace after attend ing a military review. The king was riding opposite the Bank of Spain and acknowledging the plaudits of the pop ulace when pistol shot rang out I'm. mediately there was consternation.
 The shot was followed by another and then n third in rapid succession. They came from youth in the crowd There was an immediate effort to seize him, while the military escort formed cordon about the king. Mounted sol diers rode into the crowd, forcing ev- cry one to move around the corner. Under the orders of one of the mill tary chiefs the street was cleared and the youth who fired the shots was ar rested. He gave his name as Rafael Salchez The authorities with difficult ty saved him from being torn to pieces by the enraged citizens.
 King Alfonso showed little concern or fear over the attempt on his life, The bullets were fairly well aimed and narrowly escaped striking some of the military escort. The king seemed more solicitous about them than himself.
 There was great excitement follow ing the attempted assassination. Sol diers preceded and followed the king and guarded him more closely the rest of the way 10 the palace. There were no further untoward events.
 Since the assassination of Senor Jose Canalejas, spain's prime minister. on Nov. t2, 1912. extraordinary precau. tons have been taken to guard King Alfonso. It was probably these meas ures which. saved him from the assas. sins bullets
 This was the most violent attempt to kill the king since May 81, 1906. when a bomb was hurled at his carriage while he and the queen were returning to the palace af Madrid from the church where they they had just been married The bomb was prepared to give the appearancee of rose. Eleven persons and one of the horses drawing the kings carriage were killed
 The most recent attempt on his life occurred Jan. s. 1911. at Malaga where bomb exploded just after he and Senor Canalejas closed the palace doors there behind them.
