ANOTHER REQUEST
FROM THE DANES.

The unwilling of the tablet by the
Colonial DANES of Virginia in the
northwestern wing Of AleXan-
dria's City Hall late yesterday after
noon was All interesting and impress
sivc event, and one long to be re-
membered by the many who. gather
ed at the spot. All who participa-
ted in the exercises acted well their
parts, and the unexpected appear
ance of Hon. William Jennings
Bryan, in whose veins Virginia
blood flows, impaired additional en-
thusiasm to the occasion.
This is the second gift to Alexan-
dria by the Colonial Danes in less
than two years, they having a short
time ago placed great des!deratum
at the intersection of Cameron and
Royal streets in the shape of pub
lie fountain, which has proven JOY
to man and beast, as we'll as birds
which chirp and quench their thirst
with pure aqua Cameron.
The tablet unveiled yesterday,
while not affording physical nourish-
ment, is gift in season. 1t places
in stone the more interesting notes
in the history of our old city, es-
pccially parts it played in Colonial
DAYS when great nation was
brought to the birth.
Men have been moving from the
east TO the west since the attempt
TO build the tower Of Babel. A few
thousand years hence and tourists
may be sitting amid the ruins Of the
Capitol of the United States and, as
Macaulay suggests, the New Zea-
lander will be perched upon broken
span of London Bridge gazing al
the ruins of St. Paul.
While the Pacific slope may at that
time be what the Atlantic now is
explorers in old Bellehaven will be
likely to find the tablet placed in p1
sition yesterday which will tell then
of Alexandria and embalm its mem
DRY in ages to come.
