ACTIVITY IN THE CHURCHES.
Large Audiences out in Attendance
in Alexandria Yesterday.

Yesterday proved to be record
breaker in church and Sunday school
circles in Alexandria. The audience
at the Methodist Episcopal Church,
South, is reported to have been one of
the largest seen there at morning
service in a long time, at which the
collection amounted to practically
5000. The Sunday School of the First
Baptist church broke its record of at
tendance, there being 5O3 scholars
and teachers present. 1t is thought
to have been a record for the entire
city. A week ago the attendance was
4O6. The school is making an effort to
secure an attendance of GOO. 1t is
now so large that it has become nee
cssary to divide it up into two depart
ments one of which was taken into
the main auditorium Of the churcn
yesterday.
At Christ Episcopal Church the En-
manuel Bible Class, taught by Judge
Louis C. Barley, had an attendance or
ia, The class is endeavoring to Sc
cure 200 scholars. When it is consld-
cred that<this class has only been or
panized six months and that 1t
started with membership OF only
about 25, its growth is nothing
short of marvellous. The members
Of the class say that every man, no
! matter what his church affi!iation
NAV be, who is not member of any
other Bible Class in town, will find a
most cordial and hearty welcome at
Christ Church every Sunday morning
,, at 9:3O. The motto of the class Is
eve need you and you need us.
The attendance at the various
other churches and Sunday Schools
in the city is also reported as having
been excellent.

RESPONSE OF VRGINIABODY FOUND IN WATER
Remains of Unknown Colored Man
Discovered in Hunting Creek at
North End Of Railroad Bridge.

The body of an unknown :colored
man who is thought to have been
about 50 or 40 years old, was found
drowned in the Hunting Creek, at
the north end of the Washington-Vlr-
ginia Railroad bridge. about noon TO-
day. The body was discovered by
Beauregard Foley, who resides near
the place. The police department was
notified and the body was taken IN
charge by Dr. T. NJ. Jones, city coro-
ner. who ordered it taken to Wheat
leys undertaking parlors. No one
has been found who can Identify the
remains and it is not known how he
came to be in the water.
This is the second mysterious
drowning which has occurred near
the same structure during the past
two or three years. A young man,
named Johnson, it will be remem-
bered, whose family resides across
Hunting Creek, started for his home
one Christmas Eve night. The youth
never reached his parents who were
waiting for him. He was sought far
and near. At one time it was sup
posed he had made his way south and
was safe in another country. These
hopes, however, proved groundless,
and the facts in connection with the
young mans disappearance were
never known. His body months later
was found encircled by the weeds of
the creek.
