Ld THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON, D.C., SATURDAY, MARCH 16, 1889—TWELVE PAGES, SOCIAL MATTERS. Peuitential Duties and Mild Lenten Dissipations. The Lenten period of the year, with all its needed restfulnese and self-imposed austeri- ties, has begun. Following a long and crowded season of social dissipations, in which every day of the calendar and every hour in the day bad its imperative social engagements, the penitential forty days—the Sabbath ‘days counting extra—are doubly welcome to fash- ion’s followers. This long season of abstinence from certain forms of social enjoyment is, by the common consent of society, vecupied by milder forms of enjoyment poo which are Leg mi ay & modicum of vropitiatory penance in way of acts that Navend to the benefit of the i and suffer- ing, the improvement of the health and the intel- Jectual and spiritual life. So Washington's so- ciety leaders and beaux and belles are devoting themselves to sewing circles that work for the erphans, the poor and the heathen; reading circles, the organization of various charitable enterprises, riding. driving and athletic ciubs. and to attendance upon special church services. There are people who profess to believe that the Lenten quiet is mainly valued for its free- dom from social duties because it gives needed time for the spring shopping that every house- hold requires, for the spring cleaning and the taking stock of closet belongings, and for a long list of dinner and luncheon-giving and receiv- ing. In New York city the scoffers vow that the Fifth avenue belles «pend the spare hours that this season of contrition brings them in darning their dainty silken hosiery. Ls is not upon a narrow basis of thought and action that the season is spentin the capital city. It is too cosmopolitan to be fanatical and exclusive. In the matter of church works take for instance the daily 4 o'clock services at St. John’s, when prayers are read and some hymns sung. and on Fridays Dr. W. A. Leonard reads a short lecture, the house is always crowded. Tho congregation is not composed | entirely of Episcopalians, for members of other | churches are found listening to the service, nor, with all due respect to the conclusions of the Six O'clock club, can it be said that the congregation is composed entirely of women, ‘The reading circle fo an interesting mode of mingling solid information with entertainment. It i» much affected by American women east and west. A dozen or more ladies elect them- selves into a class, They select a course of reading that is at once edifying and instructive; | they select aday and hour for meeting, and then each member of the class takes turns in entertaining the sodality. Some one is elected to read each day, the others listening. and, of | course, the best readers are soon dis-| covered. It would searcely be ecred- ited that jealow often arise = over ms of the frieuds of rival readers and vio- partisenships thus arise, but such is said the truth. The best known reading circle now in| organization is the Lenten reading class that | meets on Thursdays, The ladies meet at H o'clock aud tisten for two hours, one of | their number reading; the Iancheon is serv and after some visiting the meeting is ac ourned. The first meeting of the season was eld this week at Mra. John F. Rodgers’. The members are Mre. Edward Macauley, Mra. € Bradley, Miss Mary Waite, Mrs. N.S. Lincoln, Mrs. Edward brooke. Mrs. Geo. Wheeler, Miss Julia Seheuck, Mrs, Warder, Mrs. Bugher and Mrs. A. F. Magruder. Mrs. Tiffany, Mra. Pay- von and Mrs. Ackley, who are members, are in Europe. and Mrs, Audenreid is in mourning. Mrs yin, who has fine literary taste and accomplishment, is the favorite reader of the club. The Lenten Card club is composed of who meet on play cards. The first meeting was held at the residence of the Haytun minisier this week. Some re the Misses Preston, Miss Miss Condit Smith, Miss | Jack ¥ ton. Mr. F an Stevens. son.

A beautiful charity has been carried by a number of ladies to a successful footing, one of the sort that soothes and comforts and blesses those who give as well as those for whose ben- efit the donations are made and appropriated. Every year helpless invalids are being turned adrift from the city hospital and infirmaries, for whom nothing more can be done by medical skill. The work undertaken by these ladies as a Lenten sacrifice is to provide and equip a home for incurables, They have obtained means and have purchased a house in Mount Pleasant, and it will soon be in readiness to receive helpless, homeless invalids. Contribu- tions of money, furniture, groceries and other articles will be gratefully received by the board of officers. The president is Mrs. Sidney E erett; vice-president, Mrs. E.

The art loan exhibition and the afternoon was that are given in connection with it by the jady managers of the Garfield hospital grow in favor every day.

Mrs. Louise Pollock, who is in Boston, was yesterday tendered a reception by the public school kindergarteners in that city STREET IMPROVEMENTS. Capt. Symons Recommends a Change of Prevailing Methods. Heretofore when authority has been given to Grade and regulate a street the general prac- tice has been to grade the street, lay the side- walk and curb, and gravel the roadway. These graded roadways almost always fail to give sat- isfaction, because the gravel found in the Dis- trict is not suitable for roadways, being too clayey and of such a nature that in wet weather the roads become very softand muddy. The curb, which is set when the street is graded and regulated, gets out of shape and requires to be reset, at considerable expense, when the street is paved. Capt. Symons has given the matter considerable attention, and has written aletter to Major Raymond on the subject, in which he recommends that a change be made in the custom which prevails, His recommend- ations are as follows: MACADAM INSTEAD OF GRAVEL FOR ROADWAYS. “That in all future cases when a street is to be graded and regulated the curb be omitted, except at the corners, and that sidewalks be laid as usual and the gutters laid with a row of large stones to take the place of the curb, and that instead of a graded roadway a macadam roadway 6 to 8 inches in depth be laid, which macadam roadway shail be at such height that when the street is paved it (the macadam) will furnish the basis of the pavement.” He says that it has been clearly demonstrated that an asphalt pavement could be laid on top of a macadamized roadway without any other base with good result, ADVANTAGES OF THE NEW PLAN, By carrying out this plan Capt. Symons says an excellent roadway is secured until the street is paved and then this driveway forms a base for the new pavement. It also has the advan- tage of being dene without waiting for curb, which is oftentimes the cause of great delay in street work, and the money that is saved by not buying curb is put into the roadway. The cost of the two systems, he says, is practically the same in grading and the macadam pave- ment will be the base for the asphalt pavement, aud there will be a further saving in the cost of resetting the old curb. It is very probable that his recommendations will be approved. ——_—»—-—_ Civil Rights in an Eating House. WAYNE CURRY SAYS REFRESHMEN WERE RE- FUSED HIM ON ACCOUNT OF HIS COLOR, A warrant was sworn out in the Police Court this morning, charging Jonas W. Heckinger with violating the eating-house law. The war- rant was sworn out by Wayne Curry, colored, who hasa barber shop in the Metropolitan hotel. Heckinger keeps a saloon and eating- room in the basement, corner "Pennsylvania avenue and 6th street. Curry charges that he was refused refreshments on account of color. The offense is alleged to have occurred on the 4th inst. Curry lives at Carson’s hotel. He went to work at an unusually early hour and during the day he wanted something to eat. The wire was stretched along the line of the curb, ren- dering it impossible for him to cross over to Carson's hotel For that reason he went into Heckinger’s saloon, where he charges that the waiter refused to serve him oysters, notwith- standing the fact that he is a well-bebaved per- assisted | son, The warrant will be sent out this after- noon and the case will probably be called in the Police Court next week. stone hcaerte The Chair Said it Couldn’t be Done. BUT MR, WHITTEN PRACTICALLY DEMONSTRATED THAT IT COULD BE. Anumber of Union veterans—military and naval—met last night at Grand Army hall in re- sponse to a call which stated that the meeting waa “for the purpose of inaugurating some movement by which our disabled Union vet- eranscan secure their rights under section 1754 of the Revised Statutes.” Captain Purcell was elected chairman and N. A. Lucas, secre- tary. Aset of lengthy resolutions were offered by Seth M. Whitten, in which violations of the law were rehearsed. A number of amendments were offered, but none were made, because Mr. Whitten refused to allow any amendment. Finally the first two clauses were adopted, id then so much confusion and debate arese that — as though uothing more could be jone. Mr. Whitten then decided to withdraw the resolutions, but the chairman decided that that could not bedone. Mr. Whitten, however, showed that such a tuing was possible b; pocketing the document and refusing to give it up. Thenthe meeting adjourned, . gestae. ay The Death Record. During the twenty-four hours ending at noon to-day deaths were reported to the health office as follows: Edward Jones, white, 21 months; Maria Rickster, white, 83 years; Caroline F.
