The Latest Letter of Messrs. Parker and Dwyer to the District Commissioners. Messrs, Chas, H. Parker and Philip N. Dwyer, in their letter to the District Commissioners mentioned in Saturday's STAR, Say: “We have again and again called your atten- tion to the illegal tracks in South Washington. * * * Itmay be stated here that the only reply received by us in answer to onr letters is a copy of the order to clear H street southeast. Have you revoked the permit for track down 13th street southwest? If not revoked, will you require more information from us as to it being illegal? Can you supply us with any in- formation as to what is being done on our cot plaint as to track leading into square 493? Will you order the removal of fence at crossing of Delaware avenue? We understand Mr. Beggs, your inspector, has recommended this improve- ment. Mr. Davis, assistant attorney for the District, informed the writers that at a meeting held over a week ago your honorable board ar- rived at the conclusion that there were a num- ber of illegal permits granted and that th should be revoked. Mr. Davis must be correct, he was at the meeting. Why not revoke the permits? It certainly takes a very little time to write the letter of revocation. Does it cost a District employe anything to do his duty, or is there an unknown agency as in the Keely mo- tor which guides the hand of the District when ilroud questions are considered? If it is the intention of the honorable Commissioners not to act on our letters, will they please be kind enough to forward all of them, together with our attidavits, to the District attorney, for we honesily believe that his oftice will give the same the consideration necessary, We make the assertion and defy you to prove otherwise that the occupation of ‘certain public streets is illegal; that the company continually violates the law; that the Commissioners heed not our pire, mess and, finally, that the action of cer- tam District officials in the railroad case ‘is an outrage on the people of South Washington and a violation of their oaths of office.” — In the Churches.

Communion services were held and thirty-six persons were received into the membership. Four children and two adults were baptized. Rey. C. B.

Walsky, dealer in second-hand goods, at 1206 7th street. and an attempt was made to turn in an alarm from a box which failed to work. and some delay was caused thereby. The fire department was soon on the spot. however, having been called by the police, but the flames had reached the third story and were then burning with fury, and the fire had forced its way to the adjoining store of Joseph Bildm The flames were, however. finally extinguished, with a loss to Mr. Walsky of $2,000. Mr. Bildman’s loss is about #800. and on the buildings, belonging to Mr. Charles Uter- mehle, the loss is probably as much more. Both Mr, Walsky and family and Mr. Bildman and family were at the time of the fire at the Rifles’ armory regen, ey wedding of Miss Bildman, who lost by flames a number of wedding presents. There was no insurance on the stock or buildings. The origin of the fire is a mystery. Foxerat or Mrs. Weaven.—Yesterday the remains of the late Mra, Harriet A. Weaver, wife of the Rev.

What is Thought of the Reorganized Senators. The reorganized team will prove a strong one, Carney has demonstrated that he isa ball-player of first class order; he is quick, heavily and strongly built, an excellent first baseman, and seems to have a knack of hitting hard. Asa first baseman he may show himself to be O'Brien's equal, for he covers more ground. The general impression, however, is that the management had better go slow in re- leasing O'Brien, Many, however, are urging Carney’s retention for right field, where he could greatly strengthen the batting. HAS HIS EYE ON THE BALL. One of the questions of the week was whether or not O'Brien should be retained on the team. At the end of last season there was a good deal of clamor for his release, and the gencral understanding was that’ he would not wear a senatorial uniform this year. He was played in right field on Monday to test his batting abilities, side ky side with Carney, and since then on third for the same purpose. The former position he played poorly—or rather did not play at all, while in the latter place he showed up vet ll, At the bat he proved the same old O' n who used to craze the crowd by his opportune drives into the coal dust. “It is about settled that O'Brien will remain and play his old position. PICKETT AND BROWN, It remains to be seen whether or not the suc- cess of Mr. Hewett in securing Wise and Mor- Till will put a stop to the negotiations which he issaid to have been carrying on for Tom Brown, of Boston, and Pickett, of St. Paul. He asked the latter clab for their terms for Pickett, and would probably have secured him had he not had such good luck as to get Wise. Brown would be a strong addition to the team. He is a great fielder, a sprinter of the first order, and a dangerous batter. These elements make him a most desirable man to get, and in right field he would more than re- place Carney. It would be a mistake, how- ever, to let the latter man go if Brown should come, for he would make a good man to play in almost any position. Folks are now waiting to hear of the signing of Wise and Morrill by President Hewett. The press in other cities is speaking very favorably of the move that resulted _in securing the re- lease of these two men. They are coming here with the understanding that the team will help them to win games if they show a disposition to help the team. The lack of harmony that has revailed in the Boston club for several seasons past has hindered the effi- ciency of these men to a great extent, and their advent into a team without jealousies or rival- ries will tend to raise their spirits and increase their ball playing abilities. A Boston special says that President Hewett held a conference Saturday evening with Mor- rill and Wise. The former wanted $5,000 to captain and manage the Senators, and Wise put his figure at Mr. Hewett was to see the men again yesterday, The New York Sun 8% “The Washington club has done a good thing in the selection of Morrill and Wise, for instead of getting one good man, as it would have done had it got Ward, they now have two good ones instead, On the other hand Ward has done a very wise thi iding to remain in.this city. This is his home, and here are his friends. It is said that Ward intends to give up ball playing in two years and practice law in this city essful in this direction he keep himself before the New York pub! there is no better place than on the New York club to do it.” WILMOT'S PROSPECTS, It is the general opinion that Wilmot is going to make the older league players look sharp for their laurels this year. He came into the league last spring with an idea that because he had gained a place near the top of the batting list of the Northwestern league he was going to demoralize all of the national league twirlers, But he failed in thi His work in the field was good enough, but he was disheartened by his failure to become a great hitter, and his work throughout the year was a constant strug- gle against despondency, This year he starts under more favorable circumstances, and is expected to do a good share of work during 1839.

ITS MOTION PROVES THE REVOLUTION OF THE EARTH, A special to the Philadelphia Times from Atlanta, Ga., says: “The longest pendulum on this continent swings in the technological school at Atlanta, Itisa heavy pear-shaped picce of iron attached to a brass wire 42 feet Jong. The upper end of the wire is pivoted in a steel point which rests on the center of a steel plate so as to cause the least possible friction. The swinging of the pendulum gradually describes a circle on the floor in a direction following the sun, showing in this that ‘the earth do move.’ ‘Directly under the pendulum is a large circle divided into twenty-fonr parts, of fifteen degrees each, to correspond with the hours of the day. The north pole is placed directly under the pendulum, and the meridians of longitude meet there. The parallels of latitude make smaller circles inside the first. Dr. J. 8. Hopkins, president of the school, who made and put up the pendulum, performs the experiment as follows: The iron is brought to the edge of the circle in the meridian of At- lunta and let swing across. Apparently it goes straight across, but gradually it traverses the circle in the direction taken by the sun and op- ‘ite to the revolution of the earth. The pen- julum not being directly over the axis of the earth, does not move in exactly the same time as the sun, but falls behind some hours a day, It fis eaid that if it were at the north pole, where it would be immediately over the axis, | it would traverse the circle in exactly twenty- | four hours,and at the equator it would not | traverse it at all, for gravity would operate to prevent.” This is not a new experiment. Old residents of Washington remember when a much longer | pendulum than this was swung from the center of the rotunda of the capitol, and its move~ ments marked by a graduated cirele on the stone floor. It attracted a great deal of atten- tion at the time. Similar pendulums were about the same time swinging in various cities of this country and Europe. prema" < Tue Kxape Pianos 1x vae Vox Buiow Con- cents.—Wondrous in the quality of its sound, ite BOUT and ite resonance, and far surpassing all like instruments is the American piano.

AN ADDRESS BY MR, POWDERLY AT THE NATIONAL THEATER. A large audience assembled in the National theater last evening to hear an address from Mr. Terence V. Powderly, the grand mastet workmen of the Knights of Labor. Mr. Pow- derly visited the city at this time by invitation of the Plate Printers’ assembly, and the mem- bers of that organization were well represented in the audience. The speaker of the evening was introduced by Representative Farquhar, New York, who in the course of brief prelimi- nary remarks, said that the great difficulty with labor organizations was that they expected too much too exrly, He expressed the opinion that temperance,would be a powerful agent in advancing the cause of the working classes, Mr. Powderly was received with hearty demon- strations of applause. In tracing the history of organization in the labor movement in this country, he said that it seemed as if laboring men realized only with the greatest difficulty their real interests. He was of the opinion that if the Kuights of Labor should cease to exist and accomplish nothing further it has already erected an imperishable monument, marking acareer of beneficence and he!p to the work- ing classes, He said that the order to-day was stronger because of those who had left it. “Do we want them back?” asked the syeaker. Yes, was the reply, if they come back t5 work in harmony. No, if they only wanted to come back again to seek for place ‘and personal ad- vancement. In speaking of temperance he aaid that wherever the liquor dealer is the best friend of labor, labor is in dirt, in rags, and in misery. The speaker ored the control of railways by the state; equal pay for women; and advised his hearers to study carefully the single-tax land question. Mrs. L. M. Barry, who was expected to be present and speak, was prevented by her failure to make railroad con- nections. ——— Boat Crews Invitep ro Ricumoxp.—A com- mittee, consisting of W. F. Tinsley, W.

HOOD'S SARSAPARILLA COSTS THE MANU- | FACTURER MORE than any other competing prepa- | Tation, because it is more highly concentrated and con- tains more real medicinal value. 2. IT COSTS THE JOBBER MORE, as a conse- quence of the fact just stated. 3. IT COSTS THE RETAIL DRUGGISTS MORES for the same reason—as can be easily learned by in- quiry. Hence the desire of some retailers to sell their own preparations, which cost them less, and for which they get the same price, thus making more money. But 4.12 COSTS THE CONSUMER LESS than any other medicine, because of its greater concentrated strength, and the quautity in each bottle, and because itis the only preparation of which can truly be said, “100 DOSES ONE DOLLAR.” That the people appreciate this is shown by the fact that Hood's Sarsaparilla has THE LARGEST SALE cf any sarssparilla or blood purifier.
