There are Three grand sonatas for

for the violin or violoncello, composed

There is an old song under this title,
THE Rose. Sung by Mr.. Webster with
unbounded applause at the New The
alter, Philadelphia. Written and COM
posed by John Bray, Comedian" This
song begins: ITO shady retreat. Fair
Eliza I traced"
There is another old song in manu-
script, with indications that Miss Fanny
Alexander's music teacher had copied
it for her, beginning: ''Oh. Lady Fair.
where art thou roaming? The sun has
sunk, the night is coming" No title
appears on this manuscript, but it seems
to come up in the Rambler's mind as
he writes this narrative that the old
song was called Tho Maid of Lodi"

Fanny Alexander. to whom that music
book belonged. was daughter of that
family after which Alexandria takes its
name. In the Mansion House of Airing
ton is a bronze tablet which tells that
the estate of Arlington was part OF
grant of 1000 acres made October 81, 1869.
by Sir William Berkely, Governor of Nir-
ginia, to Robert Howsen for bringing set
tiers to the colony. Howsen sold the
tract to John Alexander for six hogsheads
of tobacco. The Arlington part of the
Howsen grant was sold December %,
177S, by Gerard Alexander to John Parke
Gusts for II 900 pounds Virginia currency
The original Arlington tract embraced
LOO acres, a little more than one-sixth
of the land which Howsen. the first gran
tee, sold to John Alexander a few years
more than a century before.
Bishop Meade. writing in 1857 Of the
creation Of Fairfax parish. in Fairfax
county, said:
The town of Alexandra at first called
Hunting Creek Warehouse, sometimes Belle
Haven. and consisted of small establishment
at that place. Its growth was encouraged by
successive acts of the legislature establishing
semi-annual fairs and granting certain privileges
to those attending them. In the year 1852 1t
was enlarged by the laying of of numerous
lots higher ground belonging to Dade. West
and the Alexanders after which it improved rap

to consider Thomas Hooker, the man.
ana MS great WORKS. his hartford
doctrine. spreading far and wide dur
ing the centuries, has overturned
thrones-Russia's recently: Germany's

There is no picture of Thomas
Hooker in existence. His statue in the
state capitol at Hartford was an
artists conception of his person and
his face. based on the common physical
traits of number of his descendants
He is supposed to have been of com

to have been unusually vigorous.
Wherever Hooker preached. whether
in England, Holland or America, large
audiences were present. He was al

though 1t is fifty miles inland. has a
ship canal which 1t proposes to widen
and deepen SO that the largest OF the
ocean steamers can eventually make
their way to it's wharves. 1t Will thus
be seen that we have four important
shipping centers which meet at the
channel which forms the entrance to
Galveston bay. They lie at the mouth
Of the great agricultural funnel OF the
southwestern states. forming the key
to the exports of this part Of our coun-
try
From this it will be seen how impor-
tant 1t is that this waterway be kept
open and it's facilities increased In this
time of war. The government has at
ready spent something like S30.0Oo,o0o
on Galveston and its approaches, and
at the last session of Congress $4,000
900 was appropriated to extend the sea
wall and make other improvements.

great bales which are pressed on the
plantations. After 1t reaches Galveston
the bales are. again pressed in the
warehouses; They go through high
density machines which squeeze the
white lint together into slabs as hard
as iron two feet square and five feet
in length. They are now about half as
large as when they came in. and will
take that much less room in the steam

wharves by rail- or on motor trucks and
mule drays, and in some cases upon
long pulley conveyors by means OF

The loading of the steamers Is done
