The Musical Association-.?At a
meeting of the Musical Association
held last night it was determined to
abolish the public rehearsal feature,
and hereafter the association will savor
more of the social than of the musical.
This conclusion was reached mainly
for the reason that most of the mem?
bers who mudc music a study la.'e
either removed from the city or have
business pursuits of a nature which pre?
vents their participating in the rigid
practice whichprecedes these rehearsals.
Another reason that is urged is the
jdck of talent new in the association
iroui which to recruit new performers.
Of late it has often been found neces?
sary to employ outsiders to assist in
making the rehearsals successful, a
plan which has proved too expensive
to be continued. Those of the aSSOCi
m who have participated in the pub
l rehearsals during the past seven
years have by faithful and persevering
practice given creditable performances
which have been enjoyed by the large
audiences which were always present.
A committee, consisting of Messrs. J. T.
.1 ihnson, W. F. Came, jr., P. McK.
Baldwin, G. W. Fisher, G. F. Price, W.
Melchoir and W. L. Allen, was ap?
pointed to draft a report on the future
prospects and purposes of the associa?
tion.
Pawnee Bill's West West.?Major
iuii W. Lillie I Pawnee Bill) has won
for himself distinction among the pio
neers of the West and the childreu of
nature, lie is the idol of the Pawnees
and other Indians who know him,
hence he has with him the greatest and
most representative lot of wild western
t?S of every class known to Indians,
Mexicans, Americans, Cowboys and
ers. The performances of the His
Wild West, Grand Mexican Hip
me and Iudian Museum outtit is
on a scale of magnificence hitherto uu
attempted. There is an army of wild
western people, aud there are Indian
musicians; the Mexican band, wild
re of the Pampas and a band of
Bedouin Arabs. Beautiful wild west?
ern girls and flashing-eyed senoritas
from the Rio Grande dash throughout
t:.i performances of Pawnee Bill's His
Wild West, Mexican Hippodrome,
Indian Museum and Grand Fireworks
Exhibition, to all of which one ticket
admits. That ibis is one of the grand?
est of all such exhibitions is attested by
the press of the country. Ladies and
children are watched by careful at?
tendants, who do all in their power to
render i heir visit to the Wild West hap
py, instructive, pleasant and comforta?
ble. _
FOOT Ball.?As stated yesterday the
Howard-Kendall game of football that
was announced for that evening on the
High School grounds, near this city
did not come?the mutes sending word
that their team and substitutes were
too badly crippled to play any more
?acnes this season, and that they would
forthwith disbaud. An Alexandrian,
who was at Kenda'l (Iriei oue even?
ing recently, says that about every man
he saw there was either crippled or
cut up and the mutes said that football
did it. Some 15 men are too much
used up to play at present. Among
these are Rossen, Cowan. Ryan, Grimm,
Cusack and Cummings, who played on
the mutes' team iu the game at the
High School ou the 7th tilt. The for?
mer has his nose broken and the others
are severely hurt in various ways, some
hobbling about on crutches, some
with heads bandaged and others with
arms in slings, and yet the "season'" is
hardly ou. The mute team is regarded
as one of the strongest teams in this lo?
cality. They visit the High School
once or twice every year and almost
invariable vanquish the home team.
Police Coubt.?Justice Tfwmpsoji
presiding.?The following cases were
disposed of this morning:
Yiuceut Wilson, Charles Wilsou and
CourtlaDd Seaton, colored, arrested by
Officers Travers aud Arrington for dis?
orderly conduct and for throwing mis?

night, were made to pay damages and

way, was fined $4.
A warrant which had been sworn out
against a white man by a colored man
for disorderly conduct, was dismissed at
the instance of the complainant.

Reorganization Defeated.?Dc
vid Thompson has been appointed re?
ceiver for the Heskins Wood Yulcan
i/.iug Company, whose plant is at One
Hundred and" Fifty-fifth street and
Eighth avenue, New York, iu the suit
of J. W. Johnson. The order states
that this does not affect or stay the
foreclosure proceedings brought by the
Atlantic Trust Company, as trustee for
the bondholders, in which judgment
has been obtained for $211,000. In op?
position to the appointment of the re?
ceiver it was urged that the bondhold?
ers had proposed a plan of reorganiza?
tion to the creditors, whereby the for?
mer will purchase the property at a
closure sale, form a new company and
give the creditors stock in it for the
amount of their claims. It was stated
that holders of bonds to the amount of
$177,000 out of $200,000 had agreed to
the proposition, and that nearly all the
creditors, about $70,000 in amount, had
also agreed to the reorganization, leav?
ing oulv a few who would not come iu.

An Enjoyable Occasion,?About
thirty of the officers and members of
tiie Young Men's Sodality Lyceum as?
sembled at the. restaurant of Mr. Ed?
ward Rammel, ou north Royal street,
last night, and spent a most delight?
ful evening. The occasion was a com
plimentary supper tended the com?
pany by Mr. Rammel who was the rt
cipient of the hardsome punch bowl
awarded the most popular restau?
rateur at the fair recently held for the
poor under the auspices of the St. Yin
cent de Paul Society of St Mary's
Church. Oysters and other edibles
were spread abundantly, and after all
had partaken of the good things iu the
way oi substantial, the bowl was pro?
duced filled with most tempting and
exhilarating punch. Toasts were pro?
posed and appropriate responses made
hy Messrs. J. Harry Rice, Herbei t
Baker, Francis T. Quinn, Thomas S.
Lannon, Florence T. .McCarthy, Daniel
J. Normoyle, Louis Shurnan and Wil?
liam L. Hoy, officers of the Lyceum.
Banquet,?Mr. T. W. Rouse, the
popular and efficient superintendent of
the St. Louis Brick Company (whose
works are in the county) ami who v a-; re?
cently married in St. Louis, last night
entertained a number of his friends at a
sumptuous banquet given at the Opera
House Restaurant. A number of per
sous were present and the various deli?
cacies of the season were served by Mr.
Brill in the most tempting style. After
the banquet Air. ("has. Bendheim, on
behalf of the friends of Mr. Rouse in
this city, in an appropriate speech, pre?
sented him with a handsome china din?
ner set and banquet lamp, as a wedding
present and as a token of the esteem
in which he is held by them. Mr.
Rouse replied in fitting terms. The oc?
casion was a most pleasant one and
will long be remembered by all present.
Explosion ok a Lamp.?About half
part ~ix o'clock last night some young?
sters while passing down Royal street
saw a brilliant blaze in a room in the
second story of the residence of Mr.
George Darley, on the east side of the
street. They knocked at the door and
informed the inmates of their discovery,
and an alarm of lire was sounded. The
fire bad been caused by the explosion
of a coal oil lamp, and the burning ves?
sel was quickly tossed into the strec'.
Some furnituie in tho room was more
or less injured, but no serious damage
resulted. The fire department did not
gQ iuto service.
Strange Lights.?Numbers of col?
ored people living in lower Fairfax
county, on the line of the Mount Yer
non Railway, are considerably exer?
cised over strange lights Which tbey al?
lege they beheld in the sky last u ght.
The exact description of the pictures
they gazed on is not given, but the
more antiquated "uncles" and "aunts"
among them declare they were similar
to those visible in the earlv part of the
year 1861, previous to the 'beginning of
the late civil war, and prophesy dire
calamities in the near future.
FOG.?A heavy fog prevailed th's
morning, and for a time navigation en
the river was made both difficult and
dangerous. The Norfolk steamer was
delayed in her arrival here several
hours, and the steamer Occoquan ran
ou a buoy off the city and was delayed
for some time, the buoy having been
caught in her wheel.
City Hotel?Mr. Frederick Schwab,
who has for several years past occupied
a portion of the old City Hotel knowu
as "Washington's Headquarters," has
leased the entire building for a term of
years and will, it is understood, make
alterations and improvements with a
view of converting it to its originial
use.
Fisk Jubilee Singers.?The original com
1 any of Jubilee Singers, from Fisk Univer
sity. Nashville. Tenn.. now in their twenty
third season, will give one of their enjoyable
concerts at the Opera House to night. The
o impany has lately returned from a most suc
csssful tour of European countries. Thev
still retain the old plantation melodies which
hwe made them so popular, and in their
concerts throughout the country they have
lost none of their power to please, in fact have
iucreased it.

REMNANT DAY.
No single element of our business receives
more thought than the art of losing money?
when to make losses, how to make them wise?
ly. It is an art. and wo have learned it The
adjustment of stocks to modern progressive
notions leaves many things out of harmony.
Wisdom tells us to let them "go." not that
intrinsic worth is less, but because a new, a
better business policy demands it. One means,
and one only, brings the desired result?the
losing method of the reduced prices.
THIS REMNANT DAY OF 1?
Furnishes an excellent example of judicious
losing. Prices?very low price?is the all
potent factor that brings about the end in
