CONQUERED WITH
THE ALDERMEN.

The action of the Common Council
last night in concurring with the
Board of Aldermen by adopting the
majority report of the committee or
Legislation forH@the annexed district
meets with the approval of most OF
the residents of the present city OF
Alexandria. The selection Of Mr.. A,
j. Pohl, a resident of Rosemont, to
fill the unexpired term of the late K.
l.. Monroe, was also meet, as the
representative should come from the
annexed district. Some members
of the two boards, however, believe
that new ward should have been
formed. This may be done later, but
it is the consensus of opinion that
such action at present would be prem
allure. The city will be redistricted in
the near future, when conditions will
be brought about which will meet
with the approval of the large major
ity of the people.
Mr.. H. r. Burke, of the Common
Council, while opposed to the election
of successor to the late R. L. Mon
roe, from the Third ward, last night
voiced the opinion not only of his own
constituents in the First ward, but
throughout the city, when he said the
City Council was already composed
of enough members for legislating
upon the city's affairs. The Gazette
has never seen the necessity for aug
menting the number. Representative
bodies are too often unwieldly, and
the wheels Of legislation are some
times clogged by too many advisers.
Mr.. Pohl has been one of our COM
munity for years. He is a practical
business man, and will doubtless prove
an energetic city fathre. Mr.. Ar
thur Herbert, Jr., who was received q
highly complimentary vote as a candi-
date for the position formerly occu-
pied by the late r. L. Monroe, is also
young and well known business man
of Alexandria, and is especially inter
ested in civic affairs. After the city
shall have been redistricted and the
four wards equally adjusted, the
work of legislating for the entire city
will proceed with satisfaction to the
large number concerned.

TRUTH STRANGE
AS FICTION.

All who have Dickens 'sDombey and
Son" have suspected that the author
has overdrawn "Mr. Dombey," as 1t
is hard to realize that any man could
be as cruel to his offspring as the
English autocrat is described to have
been in his dealings with his daughter
aLittle Florence" Dombey wanted a
boy to inherit his family name, and
his dream was "Dombey and Son." be-
side whom there was to be no other.
The advent of little Florence into his
home was disappointment to DOM
hey, and he always manifested his
aversion to the child on account Of
her sex. The death of her mother is
one of Dickens's most pathetic pic
lures.
1t seems that Dombey was not the
only member of the race who was
piqued at the uncertain gifts of the
stork.
Saying she wanted a boy baby, and
not the girl the bird brought, Mrs.
Silas Lynn, of Berwick, Pa, explain
ed in Court yesterday why she did
not care for her 3-year-old daughter.
Her disappointment led to neglect,
and finally to separation Of husband
and wife. Both father and mother
asked that the child be committed
to the care of the Children's Aid So
cicty and sent to Il home, and this the
Court directed.

SUGGESTIVE
PICTURES.

Some cartoons which arc appear
ing in our contemporaries cause many
to stop and think as they study them.
One represents the continent of Eu
rope with a black pail hanging over
England, Scotland, Ireland, France,
Germany, Austria-Hungary, Italy,
Servia, Russia, Turkey, Sicily, and
Corsica, and with heavy mist en-
veloping Portugal, Africa, generally
designated as the Dark Continent,
is among the illumined spots.
Another picture represents Civil
cation as frantic woman, on her
knees and with her hands raised to
heaven. She is on the globe which is
surrounded by water, representing
war. Mailed fists are cndeavoring to
ovcrturn the globe upon which she
stands.
Another pictures Julius Caesar rcdi,
vivant and appearing to the modern
Caesar (Kaiser is the Greek way OF
spelling CAESAR.

Pont de Nemours Powder company,
near City Point, has been completed.
The new mill is identically the same
size as the "a" plant, which was con-

the plant at this time just double the
size which was planned originally.
Foundations have been laid for the
&c" mill, which is equivalent in size
to both the other plants. Work of
construction on this mill, will be
pushed as rapidly as possible, which
when finished will complete the work
now planned by the Du Pont Company

raj months, after which the plant will
get down to it's normal working basis,
when it is estimated that 5000 well
paid laborcrs will be engaged.

hcmia several weeks ago with the in
formation written on the back of the
envelope that all his people had been

was going. He told the janitor of the
building in which his shop is located
that he had father, mother, brother
and two sisters i'm Bohemia, and that
the information he received forbade
him to hope that any of them had
escaped with their lives.
