Reported for Tae EVENING suas THanksorvine Day.—The appearance of Al- exandria differs very greatly ‘on Than! sgiving day from that of the capital sity. Washington hed on its holiday clothes, but Alexandria was in its everyday attire, and the giving of public thanks was confined to three churches and the holiday to the schools, the banks, the city of- fices, and some few mercantile establishments. Many Alexandrians went to Washington to at- tend the Thanksgiving entertainments there. New Hatt.—The brickwork upon the new Catholic hail, on Duke street, is now nearly completed. ‘The hell will have in its second story a lecture-room well fitted up with gallery, &c., capable of seating six or seven hundred persons. On the first floor there will be a com- modious gymnasium in the rear, approached by a wide hallway, which will, also, contain the handsome stairway to the hall above, On one side of this hall wall be a library-room and on the other a school-room. ‘The cost will be about $9,000. Mr. Thos. Scott has the contract for the building, which, it is understood, will be ready for occupancy next spring. NorEs.—Union services were continued last night at the Methodist Protestant church, sov- eral ministers uniting with their congregations in the services. —The mayor has fined Andrew Johnson, Samuel Bolden and George Pines, col- ored, $2.50 each for throwing stones at the house of John Montgomery, a colored employe at the government printing office, who, it is said, voted the democratic ticket at the recent election. —Justice Nauck,of Alexandria county, having tried Justice Henry Drummond, col. ored, for malfeasance in office, convicted him and sent him to jail, but last evening a writ of habeas corpus was issued and Drummond, on being brought before Judge Stuart, of the cor- poration court, was released on bail for an ap- pearance to-morrow.—Mr. C.

At the last count Mayor Downham was largely ahegd in the votes for a cane for the next mayor.——A number of the colored citizens of Alexandria yesterday formed them- selves into the Frederick Douglass club, elect- ing Mangus L. Robertson as president and Wm. L. Carter secretary. The club will ask for a place in the inaugural parade. pei inna = W. CORSON. Burotary on Firreentn Srazet.—Burglars visited the residence of E.8. Alvord, No. 1710 15th street, Tuesday night, and carried off a lady's gold watch and chain, a. check for #400, a diamond stnd, and $21 incash. The house was entered by forcing the rear window on the lower floor. One of the upper rooms was vis- ited and the articles mentioned were taken. There was no one in the room that night. The burglars escaped without disturbing any one in the house. The robbery was discovered Wednesday, but was not reported until the thieves had time to get away with their plunder, ee To Coxorarutate Gex, Hovry.—Indiana republicans residing in this city have made great preparations for the reception which they propose to tender Gen.

REMEMBERED—OTHER FEATURES OF THE DAY. Thanksgiving day was generally observed as a holiday in this District, The places of busi- ness were as a rule closed, and the street# were filled during the morning with crowds of pleasure-seekers. The bright, clear day was an invitation to remain out of doors, and those who lead confined lives enjoyed this feature of the holiday. The military demonstration of the District militia was the only event of out- door interest during the day, but, as is gen- erally the rule in this city, the holiday was spent in the quiet enjoyment of home pleasures, The reunion of families at the elaborate dinner common to the day was a cause of thankful- ness in a large number of homes. At the public institutions and hospitals the inmates were made to feel that they too had a share in the holiday by a somewhat more elaborate dinner than usual, and to this extent the day was made to some pleasure to those whose lives are ‘and unhappy. THE PRESIDENT AND MRS, CLEVELAND AT CHURCH. The President and Mrs. Cleveland, with their guest, Mrs. Hoyt, drove in from Oak View yesterday and attended thanksgiving service at the Assembly Presbyterian church. Rév. Dr. Sunderland, Rev. Jos. T. Kelly, Rev. Geo. 0. Little and Rev. A. W. Pitzer, the pastors of the four churches — in the service, occupied seats im the — e President's proclama- tion was read by Rev. Mr. Little, and the ser- mon was delivered by Rev, Dr. Pitzer. THE DISTRICT'S SOLDIER BOYS were out in force yesterday. The parade was their Thanksgiving offering to the citizens of Washington for the kindiiness exhibited to- ward them not only as companies, but as mem- bers of the national guard, and the public re- ceived the offering with expressions of ap- proval that must have been gratifying to the “boys in blue.” From 10a. m. until after 12 the ‘various battalions were drilled in street maneuvers. The first regiment occupied 15th street south of Pennsylvania avenue, while the second regiment marched and countermarched | and wheeled on 17th street south of G street. | In many respects the drill was the best ever | put up by local soldiery, and the work done in | the school of the officer by Gen. Ordway and Col. Bigelow showed itself in the masterly manner with which the battalions were handled. The artillery’s battery was not ready, so they contented themselves and delighted the spec- tators with the saber exercise, the difficult manual being executed in a highly creditable manner. ‘The signal corps and the ambulance corps drilled in foot movements. At the con- clusion of the drill program the two regiments formed on B street for parade, and marched | from thence to 17th street, where the column | rested until the President had been informed that the District militia was ready to pass in review. A temporary reviewing-stand had been erected on the sidewalk in front of the White House, and on this flag-decorated struc- ture the President stood while the citizen sol- diery, clean and neat in uniform and accoutre- ment, marched past in company front. Gen. Ordway and his staff, mounted, were at the head of the column. The feature of the parade was the appearance of the music discoursed by the national guard band, a new organization of extraordinary strength and ability, Professer Schroeder was the leader, and if the comments of the populace are of any value he has reason to be proud of his aggregation of musicians, The marching and the music were alike praised, and the crowds that thronged the sidewalks congratulated the city upon the appearance and efficiency of its national guard. A DINNER FOR THE POOR, At the rate of some 500 an hour, the Union mission yesterday entertained the poor of Washington. The stalwart arms of the mem- bers of the committee were aided and abetted | by a detail of police in this good work. The | large room upstairs, where the religious serv- ices were going on, was crowded, while the sidewalk in front was filled with a hustling, eager crowd. Some of the sidewalk guests had tickets, but the majority had none. In consequence, they did not all getin. There was, however, no other distinction shown. White and black of all ages and nearly all con- ditions were admitted to the rooms where the long tables were apread and were served with turkey, pie, fruit and all the essential# of a good square meal. Children were there,even the babe in arms, and, as President Hitchcock re- marked, it was plain to be seen that they were | the deserving poor. The waiters were ladies from the various churches interested in the mis- sion, and they saw that everybody had enough. As each person left the room he or she was given a bag of fruit. One old man, after eat- ing steadily for about forty-five minutes and clearing numerous plates, called for a third | piece of pie, but some of the managers thought that a line ought to be drawn somewhere, and no more pie, in fact, no more food of any kind was coming his way again that day. There- upon he withdrew. As he was going out he accepted the bag of fruit and also the timely suggestion that the Emergency hospital was located on 10th street. Other guests did not | sperm as much time atthe tables, They did great execution, however, and the 125 turkeys, the innumerable chickens and other good | things which had been provided in abundance | disappeared with marvelous rapidity. As the tables were cleared they were filled up again by the expectant ones on the outside, and so for five hours the feasting continued, and over 2,000 people enjoyed a square meal, The con- tributions from the generous friends of the mission throughout the city enabled this feast to be given. Some $500 was contributed in food and provisions. Geo. W. Wheeler, the treasurer, with his usual energy, was active in the arrangements for the annual dinner, and he was ably assisted by Rev. E. D. Bailey and others. THE INMATES OF THE POORHOUSE AND WORK- HOUSE REMEMBERED, The inmates of the workhouse, poorhouse, and hospital, under the charge of Superintend- ent Stoutenburg and Mrs. Stoutenburg, the matron, spent an,enjoyable day yesterday. The rules about the several buildings were not so strictly enforced as usual. Visitors were admitted all day long, and refreshments sent in were given to the inmates. Those in the workhouse were given holiday, and conse- juently did not have to go out to labor. In the morning about twenty-five members of the “Flower Garden,” a young people's 0: tion of the Fourth Presbyterian chure! Mrs. H. P, Niles at their head, sn ag, eam it.

The usual prison fare was served to the pri» oners in jail. The rules were, however, sus- pended, and the guards were kept busy all day long admitting visitors, Men visited their wives or female friends, and wives visited their husbands and male friends. Many of them brought baskets of turkey. pie, ‘and other eatab! u who had no friends to send them turkey were given the or- dinary prison fare—a cup of soup. a pound of meat, and a piece of hot corn bread. Butter would have melted on the bread, but they had none to try the experiment with, and it was really a hardship for some of the prisoners to sit hy and see their neighbors eat tur- key while they ate a piece of beef and drank prison soup. The occupants of the cells in “m1 * row” fared no better than the others. Only three of them—Albert Green, James Payne, and Albert Dodson—had friends to visit them. Payne's wife called with a bas- ket — 4 censyner enough to last him a week if he did not divide with some of his brother pri oners, Dodson's two brothers called on him during the day, as did some of Green's friends, and each was provided with a basket of deli- cacies. Marion Newman, the man of many aliases, was the only prisoner in jail who thought he had nothing to be thankful for. He spent a portion of the day complaining about his treatment in connection with the fair be- j tween himself and Mra. Kate Smith. There were about two hundred visitors admitted dur- | ing the day. — ~~. A HERMIT IN A HERDIC. A Mexican Veteran and His Curious Habitation. 4 HOUSE ON WHEELS—HOW HE CAME TO SELECT HIS NOVEL ABODE—THE STRANGE STORY OF ADDISON M. COPEN—ONE OF THE SIGHTS OF THE SUBURBS. The Peggottys in their old boat-home were never more picturesque than is the old veteran, Addison M.Copen, in his antique and novel residence. Men have retired to the solitudes of the wilderness and there, “in dens and caves of the earth,” hid themselves from the gaze of their fellows; some have sailed to remote isles and there built them a shelter of leaves and branches; while here in this city one aspiring soul fixed its habitat in the branches of a tree. Mankind is peculiar and its tastes are very varied, but it is doubtful whether any descend- ant of Adam ever before betook himself to a herdic and lived init. The old vehicle, still mounted on its wheels, stands some thirty or forty feet from the north side of Lincoln ave- nue. near the northeastern boundary of Glen- wood cemetery. A DESCRIPTION OF HIS HOUSE. The rear of the cagriage faces the roadway, and reveals the remains of what was once a gandy yellow exterior. The herdic was origi- nally open at the sides, but in that condition it was too airy for a permanent habitation, so when it came into the old soldier's r he boarded up the south side with lumber. On the north tide @ little “lean-to” addition has been built. The herdic is the sleepi apart- ment and the addition is the kitchen, divided, however, by an imaginary line. Here the old gentleman receives a large number of visitors, whose curiosity compels them to leave the roadway to examine queer little home, and here he chatted with a Stan reporter yesterday morning. The interior is heated very satis- factorily by a small cooking-stove, and if the general arrangement of affairs was alittle more neat there would be many less desirable places in which to reside. A few strips of matched lumber, supported by the backs of the herdic seats and covered with a couple of blankets, make up the old veteran's bed, and on that he sleeps with a degree of soundness that a mil- lionaire might envy. THE MASTER OF THE HOUSE. Addison M. Copen—for that is the old gen- tleman’s name—was born about sixty-five years ago in Wood county, Va., now a part of West Virginia. He comes of a old ¥: stock, his ancestors having: i i = selves in the war of independence and in the revolutionary struggle. Copen’s mother was one of the Lewis’, of Green! . known to fame in the old colonial days, An uncle of the old man’s build Pohick church, where Washington used to worship. The career of the old veteran has been a most ini one, and is decided testimony as to the truth- fulness of the proverb, “‘A rolling stone gathers no moss.” He was but little over ten years of age when he ran away from home with a Ken- tucky horse-trader. nm he ran ai yy from the horse-trader, and before he was twelve years old was engaged on Mississippi steam- t. On the western and southern rivers he was a sailor until the outbreak of THE MEXICAN Wak. In this struggle he participated actively, and when it was over he was left disabled by disease contracted in the service. When he had partially recovered he tried farming as a i failure. One occupation after another was tried with varying success, but at no time could he accumulate wealth. When the war of the rebellion came on it found Copen willing to fight, but mr oe) Bend because of the dis- ability contracted in Mexico. Instead of living in his dismantled vehicle he might now be an inmate of the Soldiers’ Home, but the strict military regulations of that institution are too severe for his Bohemian spirit, He has been ‘ary inmate of the Soldiers’ Home at Dayton, Ohio; Hampton, Va.; and in this city, but he never would consent to ist upon, and how he succeeds is a marvel. A short time ago his left hand and arm were paralyzed—a conse- uence, he says, of the disability contracted in (exico—and on this ground he has applied to the pension office for an increase in his allow- ance. If the pension office fails him he will peal to Congress. MIGHT CLAIM A BIG ESTATE, Copen seems to have always been unfortu- nate. His roving habits severed him from his relatives, and to them he was entirely lost for years at astretch. Hesaid yesterday that there were two of his sisters whom he had seen but once in fifty years.
