The naming of the bridge seems to have
been difficult problem, and probably never
was settled except by common consent. Rid
dleberger Bridge was one name suggested, in
honor Of virginia's readjuster Senator, Harri-
Holt Riddleberger who introduced the bill
for the bridge in the Senate. Georgetown
Bridge" Prospect Bridge" and Arlington
Bridge" were other names urged. The old
name. by which 1t had been known for so
many years. was not considered, as it was
deemed inappropriate, since the bridge was no
longer an aqueduct. However, in line with
the thought that you may break, you may
shatter the vase If you will, but the scent of
the roses will hang round it still,' the "Aque-
duct Bridge" was still its name and chung to
it always
Gen. William Henry Fitzhugh Lee, also Of

member of the House of Representatives from
nearby Virg mia. He born in the Gusts
mansion at Arlington, was a major general in
the Confederate Army, a son Of Gen Robert E.
Lee and brother Of Gen. George Washington
Custis Lee. to whom the Government. IN 1888,
paid $3.50 900 for a good title to Arlington.
The removal of the Aqueduct Bridge is not
going to be as easy job as might be sup
posed, judging by past experience, for. when
the earlier bridge was removed to make way
for the present one, all sorts OF dimculties
were encountered Indeed, we are told it was
a work of great danger and required more
than ordinary skill. An Army engineer was
required to put 1t up, and an ARM engineer
Is taking it down. OF course equipment and
facilities have improved at least so per cent
since then, but even with these it Is big
undertaking.
THESE old piers. which have withstood many
an ice gorge during the nearly 100 years
they have been built, and an equal number OF
foods such as the Johnstown hocd Of 1889, are.
of solid massive construction and not going
to surrender easily. They viii probably have
to be coaxed with little dynamite. When
they were under construction back In 1885,
the Metropolitan, local newspaper. said
I'VE have never had an opportunity of in
specting a more remarkable triumph of art
than the operation of building massy stone
going on near Georgetown, at the expense of
the Alexandria Canal Co.. under the direction
of Capt. (William) Turnbun Of the United
States Typographical Engineers. We yesterday
paid visit to the work and found it to sur
pass our previous conception Of 1t, as well in
regard to the magnitude Of the enterprise. as
to the ingenuity with which very formidable
obstacles have been overcome. These piers the
reader must understand, are to support an
aqueduct. or anal, being a branch Of the
Chesapeake g. Ohio Canal which is to cross
the river in this manner its way to Alex
andria. 1t is truly stupendous undertaking,
with no parallel in this country, and, we be-
lieve, scarcely equaled in any other.
"The pier which IS begun Is the second
from the Alexandria Cor Virginia) shore, the
first being the next to be built. The founda-
ton Of this pier is on the bare rock, and the
structure is Of solid masonry, formed of very
large blocks Of excellent stone from the falls
quarries skillfully laid in water cement. To
accomplish this object a vast coffer-dam has
been constructed, the interior Of which Is
about 80 feet long and nearly 80 feet wide.
