?There was an excellent attendance at the |
meeting of .the Benning Citizens' Associa
tion last evening, due largely to. the fact
that a new town hall is soon to be dedi
cated, and the -interest of everybody is
thoroughly aroused. Vice President Mew
shaw called the meeting to order, and after
minutes of last meeting were read and
approved, the road committee made its re
port, showing that improvements were be
ing made as fast as the weather would per
mit. Mr. Levi T. Baker complained of the
bad condition of the Anacostia road at the ,
Sheriff crossing, and said several accidents |
had happened there owing to the miserable
ccnditicn of affairs. His remarks were ,
supplemented by some vigorous language |
from Officer Dyer, whereupon the chair in
structed the road committee to have the
read repaired and the gutter put in good
conditionas soon as possible.
Mr. J. W. France of the hall committee
said he had seen Mr. Keyser, who agreed
to let the association have the use of his
new hall Tuesday evenings at a rental of
$1 per night, and, on motion, the committee
was instructed to engage it.
After an unsuccessful attempt on the part
of Mr? Baker to be excused from service on
the entertainment committee, it was, on
motion, decided to reconsider the action ,
taken at last meeting in reference to giving
a free entertainment, and then, after full |
discussion, it was decided to instruct the
entertainment committee to provide such
an entertainment as they see fit. The com
mittee has power to charge an admission f
fee if they eo elect.
The secretary then read a communication
from Mr. Walter Vrooman of Baltimore
Offering to deliver a lecture before the as
sociation the latter part of June, and, on
motion, it was referred to the entertain
ment committee.
The monthly topic, "Home Life," with
special reference to tenement life in large
cities, was then taken up and quite fully
discussed.
FLOW CllS FOR DECORATION DAY.
Beautiful Annual CuMtont Folloired in
the I*uhlie Meliooln. ,
Once a year the little ones who attend |
the public schools in this city take flowers
as well as books to school with them, and
as they go through the streets in the j
morning they give them the appearance of
being in the possession of a gay May pro
cession. This morning this scene was re
peated, as nearly every public school schol
ar carried a flower or a bunch of them to t
be placed upon some dead patriot's grave
tomorrow. This beautiful custom, which
has resulted In inspiring such general re
spect for Decoration day among the youth
of Washington, was inaugurated several
years aso and has been observed with
eagerness ever since.
By the arrangements in force the chil- |
dren take their floral offerings to their |
respective schools, where they are turned
over to the ladies of the Grand Army of
the Republic, who "distribute them to Ar- i
lington and the other cemeteries where |
the patriot dead lie buried. In many of
the schools there were baskets provided, |
Into which the children deposited their j
flowers, end in "which they were removed
later in the day. The backwardness of the
spring restricted the offerings somewhat,
but they were large, nevertheless.

AIIi*Ke?l Stolen Property.
Yesterday when Milton W. Boyer and
Robert Taylor, the alleged Anacostia bur
glars, were tried In the Police Court, the
evidence against Boyer was such that the
prosecuting attorney had about concluded
to ask the court to discharge him, but
there was an Incident in the trial that
caused him to change his mind, and as
published in yesterday's Star, both men
were held for the action of the grand
Jury.
When the hearing was finished and the
officers left court they went out and fol
lowed up the investigation. It was learn
ed that Taylor had rented a house near
9th and H streets northeast, and assisted
by the officers of the ninth precinct. Po
liceman Marr a.;d Reagan investigated
these premises.
In the house they found a quantity of
patent medicines, in which Taylor was a
dealer, and they also found a new safety
bicycle that had been stolen from In front
?*' Edward S. Keys' bicycle store on H
street northeast.
This bicycle was stolen a few nights ago.
Ti.f; proprietor of the store was detained
at his place of business waiting for the re
turn of a rented wheel, when he fell asleep,
ar .1 while he was enjoying the nap the
whe*l was stolen.
Iloyer. the officers learned yesterday, had
ii^.ured tht- furniture in his Anacostia
bouse for $1,500.
The prisoners were unable to give bail
Yesterday and were sent to jail. Lawyer
Mess appears as their counsel, and he says
he will cive bail for Boyer.

Death of Win. H. Collins.
At 6:45 this morning Mr. Wm. H. Collins
breathed his last. For nearly two years
he has been affected. Death resulted from
tuberculosis of the throat, which is said to
have developed from a severe cold con
tracted while on a hunting trip two years
ago. Last spring some time was spent in
Florida, in the hope of securing beneficial
results, but the object of the trip was not
attained. Mr. Collins was the senior mem
ber of the firm of Wm. H. Collins & Co.,

out the city. He leaves a wife and two
children.

panies.

Close of the Revival.
Last night the Gay Street Church revival .
services closed with an unurually strong |
exhortation. The church, as usual, was
packed to the doors. Mr. Elsom based his
discourse on the eighth chapter of Jere
miah, second verse?"The harvest is past,
the summer i3 gone, and ye are not saved."
The revivalist is a speaker of power, and
last night he illustrated his sermon in many
striking and original ways. Copious fig- j
ures oi speech and similes were introduced
to impress the minds of those in the con
gregation. Many stood for prayer, and
numerous conversions followed. .Hymns
were sung throughout the meeting, and the
religious interest waxed high.
It was Mr. Elsom's last night, and he
wanted it to be the banner night of the
series.
Baptizing followed the sermon.
Tonight a sociable will be held in honor
of the revivalist and his wife, and tomor
low they leave for Fincastle, Va.

Washington and Great Falls Electric Rail
way Company for permission to increase
the capital stock of the company to $050,000
and also io permit the company to retire
$500,000 of the stock by replacing it with [
bonds. It is stated that the charter pro
vides that the company shall not issue i
more stock than the actual cost of the |
building of the road. An estimate of the
expenses of construction made by an en
gineer of the company is riled with the
petition, as follows:
Grading, $111,000; track, $70,301; line, $27,
530; equipment, $100,DUO; power, . $52,750;
general expenses, ? $140,350; bridges, $50,- i

is to run from this city to Cabin John
bridge, the survey having been approved
by the Secretary of War and by the Dis- j
trict Commissioners, and the building of |
the road will soon be commenced.
WORKING ON SUNDAY.
Attorney Says It is Xeccssnry to Ful
fill Orders of Congress.
"In the name of the Lord and of the
Woman's Christian Temperance Union" is
the commencement of an appeal received ;
several days ago by the Commissioners
from Mrs. M. E. Catlin, superintendent of i
the department of Sunday observance of j
the W. C. T. U., against the building of
street railroads on Sunday. The Commis- i
sioners were urged to stop this Sunday |
work, and the Bible was quoted by refer
ence to Isaiah lvi:4-7 and lviii:12-14. The
letter was received May 11, and Mrs. Cat
liu has received a letter from the Commis- ;
sioners inclosing the following opinion from
Attorney Thomas: i
By Maryland act 1723, chapter 1G, section |
10, it is made unlawful for any person to
labor on the Lord's day?commonly called ;
the Sabbath?except In cases of necessity, j
under a penalty of 200 pounds of tobacco
($3.33 l-3j. 1 take it Mrs. Catlin refers to
work on the 0th street line of the Metro- |
politan Railroad Company. If so, I have |
the honor to say that the company, by act
of Congress approved August 2, 1802, Is re
quired to complete and equip its 0th street i
line with new motive power by the 2d of |
August next under the penalty of forfeit
ing its charter. If, therefore, it la neces
sary for the contractor in order to complete i
the roau by that time to prosecute the con- |
structlon on Sunday, then the work is one
of necessity and is not prohibited by the
Maryland act of 1723.
LOWEST FOR K1.\E YEARS.
Tlic Death Rate Went Still Lower
Last Week.
The death rate in this city during last
week was the lowest which has occurred
for nine years. The number of deaths re
ported at the health department was 75,
as against 01 In the previous week. The
rate upon the whole population was 14.41,
and for the whites It fell to the remarkably
low figure of 0.03 per thousand inhabitants.
There was an almost total absence of
deaths from any of the contagious dis
eases, and no death from typhoid fever was
reported. The most prominent feature of
the week's hygienic history was the num
ber of fatal attacks on the brain, reaching
the unusual number of ten for the week.
Infantile mortality stands at the normal,
and as yet the annual visitation of sum- i
mer diarrhoeas has not made an appear- I
ance, nrobably retarded by the late, cold
spring. |
One effect of tho recent enforcement of |
the so-called "Edmunds law" in this Dis
trict against people cohabiting together as
man and wife without legal marriage is to
be seen in the enormous return of 202 mar
riages to the healih officer during the week."
The usual number would be about 30.
amusements.
"My Wife s Mother."?Frederic Bond and
company are presenting this week at the
Grand Opera House an entertainment
which cannot fail to please the many thea
ter goers who will attend the performance
during the week. The comedy, "Pink Dom
inos," and the one-act comedietta, "The
Nettle," form the most enjoyable evening's
entertainment yet presented by the Grand
Opera House stock company. The bill for
the sixth week, beginning next Monday,
will be the three-act farcical comedy, "My
Wile's Mother." Seats on sale tomorrow
morning.
A Festival of Music.?A May festival of
music was given last evening for the bene
fit of the Institute of the Sisters of Mercy,
which was very successful in every way.
A lengthy program was rendered, and the
instrumental numbers, vocal solos and du
ets were listened to with a great deal of
pleasure by those who were present. Mrs.
Bingham-Cain sang the "Harp in the Air,"
with harp obligato by Miss Clara Ross, the
number beii g exceedingly well received.
A duet by Mr. Lucius F. Randolph and Dr.
John A. Daly was much appreciated, while
Miss Mcrl Esputa and Miss Elise Davis
were heard to advantage in a number of
solos. The othurs who took part in the
entertainment were Miss Noah, Miss Agnes
V. Moran, Miss Blanche Wood, Miss ICath
ryn Doyle, Miss Mary Miller, Miss Mary
Sweeny, Miss Regina Fowler, Miss Maggie
Mundell, Mrs. E. L. Dessez, Miss Bora
Saunders and Mrs. Margaret Nolan-Martin.
"An Italian Duchess."?The benefit for
the Spinner memorial fund, which took
place at the Academy of Music last even
ing, was successful in so far as the per
formance was concerned, although there
should have been a larger attendance. "An
Italian Duchess," an adaptation of "Bucre
tia Borgia," was given with Mrs. Boyd, as
Bucretia, in which she displayed fine dra-#
matic talent; Felix Mahoney, as her son;
Mr. Bertram Temple, as the Duke D'Este;
W. H. Conley, as Gubetta; Dr. Jones, as
Jeppo, and A. T. Seaman, as Maffio; Dun
can Haywood, as Ascanio; Mr. Barrow, as
Aloferno, and W. C. Stierlin, as Rustighello.
Miss Mary Helen Howe played the part of
the Princess Negroni, and in her love scene
enlivened the play with a solo. All of the
cast were remarkably good, and although
some of the participants have been seen in
entirely different lines, they proved their
versatility in a manner above criticism at
last evening's performance. The Imperial
Mandolin Club played a selection from "II
Trovatore" before the rise of the curtain
and rendered additional music throughout
the play. Miss Howe sang "Ah Fors e Lrii,"
from "Ba Traviata." and responded to a
most hearty encore with Tosti's "Remem
ber Me." A corps of lady ushers assisted
in the proceedings. Those who took part
in this part of the benefit were Mrs. Emily
Powell, Misses Clara and Elsie Ulke, Miss
Madge Shea, Misses Hattie and Hilda Her
zog. all being under the direction of Mr.
Edward W. Koch and Mrs. J. W. Schoen
ecker.
Kernan's Byceum Theater.?Bast night
the fistic carnival at Kernan's commenced
with a ten-round bout between Joe Gans.
of Baltimore and Howard Wilson of Wash
ington. Gans received the decision, al
though Wilson was on his feet in good
shape when the bout closed. Referee
Northridge said in ~ announcing the decis
ion that were it not stipulated that a de
cision should be given for purpose of de
claring the bout he would insist upon a
draw. As it was Gans won on points. Dur
ing the week there will be other interest
ing bouts. Fred. Stewart, the well-known
manager, has charge of the carnival.
Prof. Sheldon's May Ball.?The May ball
which will be given at Metzerott's Music
Hall Friday evening, under the direction
of Prof. Sheldon, will be of more than the
usual amount of Interest to those who
make a habit of attending May balls. In
addition to the regular order of affairs at
a May ball, the spectacular play of Cin
derella will be produced, with all the
dances, songs and scenery which made it
so successful when it was produced here a
short time ago
An Organ Recital.?Those who are fa
miliar with Mr. John Porter Bawrence's
abilities on the organ will be glad to hear
that he will give a recital at the Waugh '
M. E. Church, corner 3d and A streets 1
northeast, Friday evening next. Mr. Law
rence is one of the leading organists of the
city, and his capabilities to produce sweet
tones and fine effects on the organ are
n^ted.
Cht.rch of Our Father.?Prof. T. Williams
Pearman will give a concert at the Church
of Our Father on Friday evening next,
which promises to be an extremely inter
esting musical event. Prof. Pearman will
be assisted by Dr. J. W. Bischoff, Miss
Anita Cluss, Mrs. Kitty Thompson Berry,
Miss Jennie Vivien Kerr, Miss Mary Scott
Bockhart, Miss Edna Scott Smith, Miss
Roberta Allen and Mrs. C. B. Rheem.
Prof. Pearman will himself sing three num
bers, which wilJ enable his fine tenor voice
to be heard to good advantage. Since he
has been in Washington Mr. Pearman has
made many friends on account of his pleas
ing personality, as well as for his musi
cianly ability and the good work that he
has done as precentor at the Church of the
Covenant. He should be well supported at
the coming concert.
The Orphans Entertained.?The little
folks from the St. Vincent, St. Joseph and
the Washington City Orphan Asylums
were the guests of Manager Butler at But
ler's Bijou Theater yesterday, and heartily
enjoyed the thrilling and humorous parts
of "Uncle Tom's Cabin." The actors on the
stage entered energetically into the spirit
of entertaining the homeless little ones,
and it is safe to say that a more apprecia
tive audience or a play more heartily given
would be hard to find.
FISH ARE GETTING SCARCE.
End of the Seiuon i.t Now Approach
ing.
Potomac fre3h-water fish are getting
scarce and are bringing better prices than
during the past month. There are no large
white perch being caught, and the catch of
shad and herring is getting smaller each
day as the end of the season for these fish
approaches. The season closes June 1, but
under the law the dealers have ten days
in which to dispose of the stock on hand.
This results In their being caught and
brought here up to the last day of grace,
and there are always some shad to be had
as late as the 25th of the month. Salt
water fish arc a little more plentiful, and
all the fish trriving here new are in first
class condition. Shad never were finer.
White fish are scarce, crabs and clams
are plentiful and large shipments are re
ceived here every morning. Soft crabs are
being received from Crisfield, Md., and are
selling at 75 cents a dozen. Frogs, like
fish, are scarce, and were bringing $2 a
dozen today. '
Birds arc scarce on the fish stands at
this season, the principal thing in this line
being squabs. Those raised in this vicinity
retail at 25 cents each, while the Philadel
phia squabs sell a.t .'15 cents.
As soon as the shad and herring season
is ended the summer seines will be put in
the river for the catching of rock fish and
perch. For some time these seines will
haul out some shad, but they will be used
by the men at the fishing shore or sold to
the country people, as the law forbids their '
being brought here after June 10, as al
ready stated.
Yesterday at Golden's stand In the
market there was a large quill fish on ex
hibition. This queer specimen of fish was
brought here on a boat from Kingston, Ja
maica, and is said by the market people to
be the only one in the city.
Sunday Liquor Law.
Howard P. Marshall and Albert Gleason,
proprietors of the Oxford Hotel, were in
the Police Court today charged with violat
ing the Sunday liquor law. Lawyer H. E.
Davis, for the defendants, demanded a
jury trial and the case went over until
later in the week.
The Cattle Market.
At the Union stock yards, Benning, yes
terday the cattle market opened and sold
as follows: Best, 5 3-4 to Gc.; good, 5 1-4 to
5 l-2c.; medium, 4 3-4 to Sc.; common, 2 1-2
to 3 l-4c. A. BoefHer, R. Weaver, Jno. Kar
tirg and Henry Kengla bought a fancy lot
of Pennsylvania cattle at 0 l-8c. 550 sheep
and lambs on the market, and all sold as
follows: Old sheep, from 3 to 4c. per pound;
lambs, from 5 to 7c. Cows with calves sold
from $25 to $45. State of the market was
good.

C0-0PERATI0N1ASSURED
Alexandria County to: Be Hade Unpleas
ant for Lawbreakers.
Gov. O'Ferraill Ajgreen 4o Join Forces
With the WmihlngtpB Board of
Trude in the Wnr A&ainst Evil.
Mr. B. H. Warner, De. A. P. Fardoh and
Judge I. G. Kimball spent a pleasant and
profitable two hours at the governor's
mansion in Richmond yesterday afternoon
in company with Gov. O'Ferrall of Vir
ginia. The gentlemen went south as a
representative committee of the Washing
ton board of trade for the purpose of con
ferring with the governor over ways and
means by which the gambling and general
lawlessness which now flourishes unre
strained in certain sections of Alexandria
county may be stopped and punishment
assured for those who persist in disre
garding the Virginia statutes. Mr. John
B. Wight, secretary of the board of trade,
was one of the party and was present at
the conference.
When the committee was met by the
governor it was given a hearty and cordial
reception, and its members very quickly
perceived that Mr. O'Ferrall was as deeply
interested in the subject as they were
themselves. President Warner briefly out
lined the objects which the board of trade
desired to accomplish, and then followed
a general discussion of the conditions ex
isting across the river.
The governor showed that he was per
fectly familiar with affairs in that vicinity,
and promised to do everything in his power
to eliminate the evils existing there. He
said that if the board of trade would se
cure evidence of unlawful actj3 on the part
of any one in Alexardria county he would,
if necessary, send the attorney general to
Alexandria and have a special jury im
paneled to try the cases. He also assured
the committee that he would have any one
who attempted to make foreign books at
the race track prosecuted, and would prose
cute vigorously any other infraction^ of
law at these places. The visitors returned
well pleased with the result of their jour
ney, and will prepare at once a report to
the full committee.
SELECTING THE DATE.
Dcmocrntlc Priumrie* lu Montgomery
Set for July ?>.?
Correspondence of The Evening Star.
ROCKVILLE, Md., May 20, 1895.
Yesterday was a gala time among the
democratic politicians of the county and
Rockville was full of them during the en
tire day. A considerable amount of cau
cusing was done by the leaders of both
factions of the party, but the general im
pression appears to be that little was done
calculated to heal past dissensions. Rumors
have been afloat for some days that propo
sitions had been offered for a compromise
on the basis of a divided delegation to the
legislature, but the proposed "deal" has
apparently fallen through. It is expected
that several new announcements of candi
dates for the legislature will appear in a
few days. The cause of the great gather
ing here yesterday ? was the meeting of
the state central and copnty committees
of the party to arrange for holding the
primary elections to make nominations for
the state and county ticket. The commit
tees were in session for some hours and
finally determined to hold the primary
elections in the several districts of the
county on Saturday, 20th day of July next,
froin 0 a.m. to 0 p.m., fey the following
officers: Governor, attorney general, con
troller of the treasury, associate judge for
the sixth circuit, three members of the
house of delegates, three judges of the
orphans' court, two county commissioners,
state's attorney and county surveyor.
Persors who desire to be candidates for
either of the above offices must, prior to
the 0th of July, present their names to the
chairman of the state central committee,
accompanied by one dollar to insure the
printing of their names on" the primary
ticket; otherwise, any votes cast for them
will not be counted. At the same time a
member of the county committee will be
elected in each district. The committee
appointed the following persons to act as
judges of election: First district, Joseph
Pcpe, G. F. Snouflfer, H. H. Kirsey; second,
James B. Neel. Chas. R. Murphy, W. H.

SPEAKER CRISP'S PRINCIPLES.
He Annoonee* HIhimcII Squarely for
Free Colniigrc of Silver.
Speaker Crisp puts a quietus on the dis
cussion ever his views on the financial
question in the following card, given out
for publication:
"AMERICUS, Ga., May 28.?Ever- since
I gave corsideration to the question I have
been a believer In and an advocate of the
free and unlimited coinage of silver. Ever
since I entered public life I have spoken,
and, when opportunity offered, voted for it.
I still favor the free and unlimited coinage
of silver l y the United States independent
ly at the ratio of lt? to 1. How any one at
ell acquainted with my public utterances
and acts can have mistaken or been in
doubt as to my position is a mystery to me.
My excuse for this card is misrepresenta
tion; my hope is that this will end it.

Is the prayer of the nerves for pure blood.
By purifying the blood Hood's Sarsaparilla
cures neuralgia.
"Last December I had a severe attack of
sciatic neuralgia in my left hip and leg.
For three months I suffered night and day
with severe pains, and all th? medicine I
took did mc no good. 1 finally decided to
try Hood's Sarsaparilla. I have taken
nearly three bottles and now I am free from
pain. I feel very grateful for the benefit
Hood's Sarsaparilla has been to me. I can
heartily recommend It to any one suffering
from the effects of Impure blood." J. H.

THE MORTON CADETS.
They Will Give nn Exhibition Drill
Thl* Afternoon.
The Morton Cadets, the second best mili
tary company in the United States, in the
judgment of the board of three army of
ficers officiating: at the recent Memphis in
terstate competitions, will show their
friends and the public how that title was
won with an exhibition drill at 6 o'clock
this evening in front of /the Arlington Ho
tel. Great enthusiasm his been aroused by
the success of Capt. Shilling and his youth
ful soldiers in the Tennessee city, and as
the drill this afternoon Is the first exhibi
tion the company has guven in this city,
either before or since th^trip to Memphtef
a large gathering will undoubtedly b^fn
attendance.
It is probable that an exhibition will be
given in front of the Arlington Hot'el Sat
urday evening at 6 o'clock by the National
Fencibles, when the ex-champions will
prove to thei- admirers that the loss of
the cup was due entirely to an accident
an4 not because of inferior drilling.

OX CRUTCHES 2 WEEKS.

MAKES ONE APPLICATION OF *
CUTICURA AND IN 5 MINUTES

ABLE CASE.
About two years ago I was confined to my room
with a breaking out on my leg which my physician
pronounced Eczema. Aliout three weeks ago the
jsame disease broke out again on the same leg, and
my physlciau has been attending me regularly, call
ing from once to twice daily, the 6ores all the
time getting worse. A friend called to see me a:nd
brought at>out one-half teaspoonful of CUTICURA,
advit-ing me to try It, telling of himself, brothers
and mother having been cured by it. I would not
try it at tlrst, although I had been on crutches for
over two weeks, and at one tiuie I counted between
twenty-live and thirty suppurating sores, and had
not slept more than five hours in three nights. Mon
day moruing about 4 o'clock the pain, burning and
itching became so severe that I determined to try
CUTICURA, thinking that if it did no good, It could
uot make my leg much worse, for it was as raw ns
a piece of beef and as red as a beet, so I appiitO
the' CUTICURA, and In five minutes after I laid
down I was asleep. Next day I sent au<l got a box
of CUTICURA, and I'll pledge my houest word I
would not take $100 today for it. If I could not get
another. I commenced using CUTICURA Monday
morning about 4 o'clock, and today (Tuesday) my
leg is nearly well, notwithstanding I had not walked
a step without my crutches In two weeks. My
gratitude to the man who first compounded CUTI
CURA is profound. Slay God bless him.
