Future of Real Estate in Washington. Messrs. Fitch, Fox & Cutter naturally feel a and extinguishec mane Ee veld wisust Seer foe; deaths f it <a { lively interest in the future of real estate in the District of Columbia. One of the members of this firm was one of three gentlemen who originated the movement that led to the or- ab ization of the citizens’ committee, whose jabors were concentrated upon the single idea of getting the U.5. Congress to acknowiedge the justice of assuming their proportionate share of the expenses of the Distriet goveru- ment, Which pro ruta amount Was finally fixed at fifty percent. In their judgment the effect of this measure will be of immense value to the District. Many persons d: ed to pur. i chase before the pa-sage of the bill, because they insisted that the debt of the District was @ morigage on its real estate. By the principie THE PUBLIC SOHOOLS.

TRE ROBINSON MATHEMATICS Superintendent Wiisou also presented the 1 of a contract of Ivison, Blakeman X Co., relative to furnishing the schools with Robin- scn’s mathematics.

Rep. NECESSITY FOR INCREASED SCHOOL accoOM- MODATION. Supe: intendent Wilson presented a commu- nication calling attention to the necessity for immediate action in the matter of schoo! now established the District will be enabled to meet all its obli, igations promptly, improve the , and lay up something with it maturity. By the terms of the copartnership establish be- tween the U.S. goverument and the District of Columbia the debt can never be increased Without the consent of the former. This will be an advantage possessed by no other city, and Will impart, necessarily, s to real estate values. As this fact comes to be fully apprecizted, it is thought Uhat foreign governments will no louger hesitate to purcnase residences for their repre- septatives at Washington. Then this firm think it will be only a question of time ere the several states will furnish suitable a dations here for their Senators. Why should this not be done, when the states are relieved from paying any portion of the salary of the Senator, whose usefulness 1s ordinarily meas- ured by the amount of appropriation secured Tor his own state, while his house rent has to be paid from his own salary? Then, in turn, the U.S. government will provide residen. for the members of the Cabinet. They consu- tute the staff of the Chief Magistrate, whose house is furnished free of rent, and whose salary is out of proportion to that of his eon- Stitutional advisers,—not that the salary of the Fresident should be lowered, but the govern- ment ¢ it to furnish accommodations for the members of the Cabinet, in order that they may suitably receive and entertain the people upon the occasions set for their reception. ealth is often very unevenly distributed the members of the Cabinet. entertain properly becomes a bur- te seme, and under its pressure men are driven into temptation, and th succumb to corrupt intluences. Every patri- otic American citizen will admit the ustice of this proposition, and concede the fact that it would have been better for the gov. ernment to have expended a quarter of a million of dollars in this direction than to have been subjected to the scandal brought upon the late administration, which is too fresh in the minds of the people to need repetition. They feel greatiy encouraged by the legisla- tion of the past session of Cougress and by the indications for the future. They have sold some valuable lots to parties who intend to build and know of others who will purchase in the fall. The outlouk is decidedly favorable for operations in real estate. What ally needed at this time is the formation of a citizens’ committee to take such action as may be appropriate to suitably arrange for a grand jubilee or celebration upon the completion of the Washington monument. This should be made a national affair, and in order to have it @ success, there should be concerted action on the ia of the citizens and co-operation with the U.S. government and the District authori- ties. A great deal of preliminary work will have to be done, and if properly done much ood Will result not only to the real estate in- erests of Washington but to all of our trades people without exception. he attractions and surroundings of the capital ought to be shown to advantage, and there is no city to which the people large would more readily come. As an illustration of what might be gained, it is suflicient to mention the fact that Within the past month twe gentlemen from the west have invested over one hundred thousand doilars in the purchase and impreve- MENt of rea) estate > s gin- ming to look around for suitable schools at which to place their children and wards for the next term. The teachers and principals of educational institutions are therefore be- ginning to make preparations for the “ul campaign Amoug the many excellent schools, well conducted, the following have made their announcements, by advertisement. for the next opening.

The increase in the average en- rollment of pupils in the white schouls of Washington and Georgetown last year was s2 pupils, requiring 14 additional rooms for their accommodation. There is no reason for expecting the increase of pupils to be less at the opening in September of this year. Of the white schools of Washington and George- town, 77 schools are now occupying renied rooms, and it will be no easy task to find 14 additional rooms that are suitable and ean be rented for school purpos it will also be ne- cessary to provide a roum or rooms for the advanced grammar school for boys. There are about 70 boys who are qualified and desire to enter this school, and the room iu the Thomson building occupied by the school last year will not accommodate more than 5 pupils.” The communication was referred to the committee on building. A petition was presented asking for an ferred. Also a petition relating to the leasing of the chapel ou 3d street, between L street and New York avenue, for school purposes, which was referred. RESOLUTION TO UNDO THE WORK OF THE LATE BOARD. Mr. Lambert called attention to the fact that much of the work of the board had been an- ticipated by the former board, and, while he had no objection to the teachers who had been hominated by that board, he felt it_his duty under the circumstances te offer the following resolution, which was laid over: Whereas it is the sense of this board that the appointment of teachers in the public schoois of the District of Columbia for the ensuing year properly belongs to this board: Therefore be it “1 Aesolved, That the action of the late Board of Public Sehoolsin making said appointments heretofore, to wit: on the 25th day of June last, be, and the same is hereby, rescinded and the appointments annulled, and that the ap- propriate agencies in the selection and ap- oes of teachers be, and they are here- by, directed to make recommendations for filling a various teacherships hereby made vacan . Mr. C. B. Smith offered a resolution direct ing the committee on buildings to put in order a room at Hillsdale for an additional school ; referred. ,THE PROPOSED CHANGE OF TEXT BOOKS. The contract submitted by Messrs. Ivison, Blakeman & Co. relative to the change of Da! vis’ arithmeties for Robinson’s, was taken up, the pending motion being that of Mr. Lovejoy to refer to a select committee. Mr. Brooks suggested that it go to the com- mittee on text books. Mr. Lioyd defended the action of the late board in inaking the change, saying that they acted in compiiance with the standing rules The committee in reporting on the subject Were ubanimous, and the board, bya more than two-thirds vote. accepted the report. He t the contract. be acted on at once, as it was important for the publishers to know what is to be done, and there were but about three weeks before the sehools will reopen. Mr. Reyburn cnet see that he was opposed to changing text KS on principle; but in this case there was a necessity for this action, and the book adopted is vastly superior. Mr. Lovejoy said he did not regard the ac- tion of the late board asa finality. The man- ner in which the subject now comes up would indicate that the Commissioners expect the action of this board. Any change of text books was expensive, and even if for sixty or bees days exchan; may be made, after that date expense will be incurred. He thought if the matter is closely examined that Davis’ Series will be found much the cheapest. r. Lambert said that in this matter they should be extremely cautious, and the subject should be thoroughly examined. He claimed that this board did not stand as the late board did, its predecessors, for an act of Congress had wiped out the late board, and this board Was a bew organization. Mr. Brooks remarked that this subject had been referred by the late board to the District Commissioners to make the contract if they Saw fit, and they now send it back to this board for its aporoval or disapproval. He held that this board succeeded to the sins of the old board as well as its graces. BOOK PUBLISHEKS’ LIBERALITY EXPLAINED. Mr. Fairley said that the offer of this firm showed that they were = benevolent or were specially interested. He had bad an inkling that they designed, after the expira- tion of the 60 or 9) days, to fix the prices of the books at such a rate that in a year or two they would be more than compensated for their first Ce If such was the intention, this board should be careful, and before coa. firming the action the opinions of those most interested should be obtained as to whether it will be of advantage to the children, ce. He Suggested that these opinions be obtained and ct reported on at the next meeting. Lioyd suggested the reference to the committee on text books (C. B. Smith, Collins, and Matthews). ). The subject was referred toa select com- mittee. TEACHERS’ APPOINTMENTS OF THE OLD BOARD CONFIRMED. The resolution of Mr. Lambert relating to pv appointment of teachers was taken up, Mr. Lovejoy offered a substitute, therefore, gonfirming the appointments of the late Mr. Lambert accepted the amendment, ex- plaining that he was perfectly satisfied with the appointments and desi in his op! ion, as there was an Messrs, Loyejoy and Matthews ‘espiacs ed | Committee o- vert and C.— B.| that there was no 0} Y a tlens made. but thee’ “sition to the nomina- The substitute we", epouleeyegome action: SUILDINGS. alled up the report of the late 4 buildings, and moved its refer- Mr. Brooks ¢~ ence to the *truction 4 to prepare au estimate of all the re- to" “aecessary to the school; for submission | the District Commissioners, which was agreed to.

The report was adupted. he president, Dr. Thomas, called the first vice president to the chalr. WITHDRAWAL OF THE BOOKBINDERS’ UNION. Tue secretary read a notification from the Bookbinders’ union that that organization had withdrawn from the assembly, and that no one was authorized to represent the Book- binders’ union. : Dr. Thomas took the floor and said there should have been good reasons set forth in the notice for such action. In all fairness this should haye been done. He had seen the action of this union paraded forth in the newspapers in the way of an advertisement, and it Was apparent that the publication in this way preceding the official notice sent the Workingmen’s Assembly was «lesigned as a mark of great discourtesy to this assembly, a3 well as to stab individuals. There were SOME DARK AND CLOUDY REASONS for this, which the assembly should investi- fate, and he called upon it todo so. What was their notion? He intended to unveil it. That it was for the purpose of sowing the seeds of discord he had no doubt. Some expression shouid be made by this assembly. Some people would rather rule in hell than serve in heaven, and there were men of this kind in the Book: binders’ union. He then recited briefly what the assembly had done in the advancement of the rights of workingmen since its organiz; tion. The record of the assembly is weil known, and his own personal record in con. heetion with this organization is also_pretty well known. Much of this troubie with the bookbinders had been . A PERSONAL WAR on himself. Ina meeting Saturday night last Some dirty work had been done, and this job of demoralization instigated and since ; ried out. He hoped, howeyer, that the assem- div would not be disturbed _nor broken up by these discordant spirits. The delegates trom this union had been chronic growlers, and had | uniformly opposed any and all measures for | the good of the whole assembly. They had | not been able to accomplish their purpose. and the next thing they sought to do sto con pel their unien to withdraw, and he heartily congratulated the assembly upon getting id of so pestiferous an element so easily. Now let them go, with a good riddance to them. ‘The vote upon the reception of the communi- cation from the Bookbiuders Union was or- dered, and it was decided unaniimously to ac- cept the notice of withdrawal. be held next Monday night in Hall; adopted. THANKS TO THE SECEDERS. Mr. Plass, from the Plumbers’ Union, sub- mitted a resolution “that the thanks of this Assembly are due to, and Nd. ered. the Bookbinders’ Assoc: 9 removed from among us the only discordant element that we have been alilicted with since our organization; and that the thanks of this Assembly are hereby tendered to Dr. Alfred Thomas and William G. Evans, of the Book- binders’ delegation, for their sincere and earn- est eflorts in our behalf, and while we are deprived of their valuable services as active members we hope that they will give us as honorary members of this Assembly their aid and council in the future as they have so ably and honorably done in the past.” MASS MEETING. A committee to procure the speakers and make arrangements for the mass meeting next Monday night was appointed as follows: Messrs. Hamilton, Clarkson, Stewart. Waters, Kopp, Emmons, Boston, Fallon, MeCarty, an Christian.

THE STORM Jast night was thought by many to have been almost, if not quite, as severe as on the previous evening. The lightning seems to have been more disastrous than during the former storm. About o'clock the old frame chapel on Brick Yard hill, formerly used by the congregation of Grace chureli, was struck by the lightning. which tore away a portion of ‘the steeple, and passing down- wards cut the bell rope in two pieces and aiso knocked the plastering from the wall in two places, Henry Storck and his wife, who oc- cupy the rear of the chapel, were sitting on the bed at the time, and both ielt the shock sensibly, his wife Sophia being rendered un- conscious for a time.
