Information on what is doing among
the Solons:
Our committees are just commenc-
ing to work real hard and the balance
of the session will see lot of hard
work with some little diversion in the
way Of excitement before the close
The bill providing for board of
three nurse examiners for the state
without consulting the Nurses AS
ISOLATION, which has always submitted
nine names, from which the governor
could pick five members for the state
board, is creating by far the most
entertaining diversion. This town is
full of nurses from all over the state
and when the committee meets they
are all on deck, presenting their views
and almost engaging in open hair
pulling. The committee is almost up a
a tree and have not yet decided what
to do about it, 1t is very COM
plicated situation all around"
Senator Mostad has introduced a
Nonpartisan election bill for county
offices, known as Senate bill 70 and
from. all indications it will be passed.
This will do away with party lines
in county and legislative offices but
will retain party affiliations in state
affairs and national politics.
There are rumors Of short session
and the House of Representatives have
set this week as the last for introduce
ing new bills. Legislators look for a
SO day session.

$4,000 ship builders going out on a
strike The workers claim that the
ship yards are making enormous pro-
fits while they are not participating
in them as fully as they desire. When
ever wages are increased the Seattle
folks learn about it, and boost the
price of goods up a notch or two, they
claim. One of the ship yards sold
two ships to Japan for $5,000,000,
which had cost them but a million
dollars for each ship.

SAYS HOT WATER
WASHES P0IS0NS
FROM THE LIVER
Everyone should drink hot water
with phosphate In it,
before breakfast.

To feel as fine as the proverbial
fiddle. we must keep the liver washed
clean. almost every morning, 10 pre-
vent it's sponga-like pores from clog
'ging with indigestible material, sour
bile and poisonous toxins, says a noted
physician.
If you get headaches, it's your liver.
If you catch cold easily, it's your liver.
If you wake up with bad taste, furred
tongue, nasty breath or stomach be-
comes rancid, it's your liver Sallow
skin, muddy complexion, watery eyes
all denote liver unclean1iness. Your
liver is the most important, also the
must abused and neglected organ Of
the body. Few know its function or
how to release the dammed-up body
waste, bile and toxins. Most folks
resort to violent calomel, which is a
dangerous, salivating chemical which
can. only be used occasionally because
1t accumulates in the tissues, also
attacks the bones.
Every man and woman, sick or
well, should drink each morning be-
fore breakfast, a glass of hot water
with a teaspoonful of limestone phos-
plate in it. to wash from the liver and
bowels the previous days indigestible
material, the poisons, sour bile and
toxins; thus cleansing, sweetening
and freshening the entire alimentary
canal before putting more food into
the stomach.
Limestone phosphate does not re-
strict the diet like calomel, because it
can not salivate, for it is harmless and
you can eat anything afterwards. It
is inexpensive and almost tasteless, and
any pharmacist will sell you a quarter
pound, which is sufficient for a DEM
onstration Of how hot water and lime
stone phosphate cleans, stimulates and
freshens the liver, keeping you feeling
cit day In and day out.

THE GUNsTON HALL" AT SEA.

The huge steel steamship "Guns-
ton Hail." launched at the plant of
the Virginia Shipbuilding Corpora
ton at this place last February. is
now on the broad Atlantic, having
left Baltimore yesterday loaded with
coal for Rotterdam. The steamer Is
flying the American flag and under
her name on the stern are the words
"of Alexandria"
The "Gunstcn Hall" is the first
ocean-going vessel hailing from this
port which has appeared on the At
lantic since the early eighties, at
which time several large coal carry
ing schcore,S were constructed
here.
The "Gunston Hall" will soon be
followed by the ''Betsy Bell" now at
Newport News. which will also soon
be on her way to Liverpool. Two
other steamers, built upon the same
models, are now lying at the plant
of the sh:pbuilding plant. They will.
in the near future. be blowing the
Atlantic. Four others are being
built. che of which will be consigned
to its element next month.
At the breaking out of the civil
war but enc Of what was at one
time q large fleet Of Alexandria
built ocean vessels was engaged in
trading from this port. This was the
brig 'Leri," owned by the late Ben
jamin II. Lambert, and commended
by the late Captain Travcrs. Twenty
years elapsed before Others hailing
from Alexandria appeared on the
high seas, ard it is pleasant to
know that large stee! steamers hail
ing from Alexandria are at present
engaged in ocean trade.

.RAZING AN OLD LANDMARK

The massixe chimney OF what was
once the Pioneer Mills at the foot of
Duke street has stood during the
past seventy-five years casting its
shadow over the Potomac even as the
Sphinx Of Egypt has stood silent for
centuries. 1t was erected at the be-
ginning of the last half of the pre-
vious century when the Pioneer
Mills, one Of Alexandria industries,
followed the retrocession of the city
from the Distict Of Columbia to the
mother state.
The mills were operated from
about 1853 to 1860, producing a
brand of flour, which was in de-
mand, especially in South America.
In the succeeding year. when the
city was captured by the federal
army. the Pioneer Mills were used
as storing places for government
supplies. At the close of the con-
flict "hard tack" the bread furnish
ed soldiers and sailors, tons of which
were left on hand, were ground at
the mills. For many subsequent
years the Pioneer Mills remained
idle, or practically so, being at
times used by our, commission mer-
chants, until the night of September
20, 1896, when the structure was
practically demolished, by tornado
which struck Alexandria. In the
early summer of the following year
the mills were given their coup de
grace by fire which swept a large
area Of the river front.
From the mills were erected the
huge chimney practically as intact as
when first erected, has stood as the
pyramid of Gizeh amidst the ruins
of ore of our most promising en-
terprises of other days. 1t is now
being demolished by the present
owners of the property, and this
prominent landmark, which has wit
messed the fluctuations of our city
nearly three-fourths of century is
gradually vanishing from view.

CONDITIONS IN KNOXVILLE

The lioting in Knoxville, Tenn,
Saturday and yesterday is TO be re-
GREETED, following as it did similar
unfortunate occurrences in Chicago
..ngton. While such turmoils were
;.'istracting the great western city
with similar scenes in the nations
capital, the Gazette with other
southern papers expressed its salts
faction that our section of the coun-
try had been spared such scenes.
We were, however, immune for q
:hc1.t time, as dispatches show that
ects equally as bloody as those
which disgraced Washington and
Chicago are in evidence in an adjoin-
ing state.
