The attention of Ma: Moore should be called to this nuisance wit @ view to its abatement. That there is a more expeditions and less odoriferous mode of rid- ding the streets and sidewalks of fallen leaves and twigs is readily conceded, and carts are provided in some localities for gathering this deciduous refuse. Prompt action by Maj. Moore in putting the police on the qui vive for euch offenders would doubtless break up this practice, and the arrest of an offender would be a sufficient warning to would-be of- fenders.

C.. THURSDAY, OCTOBER 24, 1889. A THIRD PARTY MAN. A West Virginia Socialist Visits the First Precinct Station. Iandand| There isa man in town who proclaims him- self @ socialist and has announced his intention of making a speech on one of the street corners in the city tonight. He gives his name as “Theodore Bartboldis,” and says he is from Charleston, W. Va. He ie apparently about fifty years old, hasared face and a stubby mustache, and doesn’t wear a collar or necktie. He frequently quotes Representative Wilson of West Virginia, and boasts that the Congressman will support and defend him in what he does. This morning bright and early Bartholdis pre- sented himself at the first precinct station, on 12th street near Pennsylvanian avenue, and desired some information a3 to whether that was a jail or not, and DESIRED TO SEE THE PRISONERS. “No, sir,” said the officer in charge in answer to his request, “the prisoners are not on exhi- bition; and another thing, this is not a jail.” a ag rene le, seid Partholdis, “what a fine country it would be. There woul be no jails or penitentiaries or poor housee.” Then he began to harangue as though he was talking to a street gathering. “Give me one hundred men and fifty women out of any prison; give me the worst ones in the prison,” he shouted, “and put us on an island in the middle of the ocean. I know they wouldn't kill me and I would make good citi- zens of them.” THE “UNITED LABOR PARTY.” “The time has now come,” he continued, “when the two old parties are getting to be corrupt and a new party must be formed. It must be composed of independent republicans, independent democrats soe labor men, and must be known as the united labor party.” Concerning the speech he intends making tonight the officers informed him that it woul not be permitted and told him if he attempted such a thing he would be locked up. “This is a free country,” shouted the excited foreign “If you were all like us you would be better off. Lieut. Amisethen entered the station and tried to convince Bartholdis that his theories were wrong. Bartholdis became excited and was so boisterous that he was ejected from the building. Before leaving, however, he gave the information that he was going to address his fellow socialists on the avenue tonight if he could find any hearers. Whether the po- lice will interfere will depend on whether there is a disorderly gathering or an obstruction of or- dinary street travel or some other violation of law. — NEW YORK AVENUE. PARKING. Capt. Symons Favors Its Removal, But Si an Appropriation Will be Needed. Some days ago, as heretofore stated in Tae Sra, the Commissioners received a petition from the residents and property owners on New York avenue between 13th and 14th streets northwest requesting that immediate atten- tion be given to the parking in the center of said avenue, which is an eyesore and an ob- struction rather than an ornament, They re- quested its removal. The matter was first referred to Capt. Sy- mons, In his report upon the case he says: “The estimated cost of doing the work asked for is $6,486. There is no money available for doing this work. If it is done it must be done under a special appropriation from Congress. This oenter parking on New York avenue has been a matter of complaint fora good many years, It has always been kept ina very un- sightly condition, and it seems to me it would be well if money for the purpose can | be secured to remove the parking and pave the street entirely across. I do not see how it can be done unless an appropriation for the work can be secured from Congress.” —— ee FOUR BEAUTIFUL WINDOWS. Memorials That Adorn the Church ef the Covenant. A very notable work of art has just been com- pleted in the Church of the Covenant, Early in the spring Mrs. Read of No. 6 Lafayette square put in two fine windows, made by the Booth company in London. They were the large central windows of the north or N street gable. Shortly after Mrs. Read decided to put in, also, the adjoining windows on each side and submitted to the building committee de- signs from the same artist. These were ap- proved and the work immediately begun. The glass is now all in place, four large windows be- ing admirably filled. The subjects are four great events of New Testament history: The Annunciation, the Adoration of the Shepherds, the Calling of Matthew and the “Noli me Tan- gere.” The figures and faces are exquisite and the coloring very rich. Every detail is care- fully studied. The northern light upon the glass is excellent, and there is no hour of the | day when they cannot be examined with grea: | pleasure. The old ivory color of the walls in | this superb interior gives every bit of glass its | best effect, and credit must be given the artist | of having proved worthy of exceptional oppor- tunity. Each window bears a suitable text of | Seripture, and the memorial inscription is as | follows: “In loving remembrance of her brother, | John Adolf Dahlgren, R. Admiral U.S.N., 1870, and of Mary C. Dahigren, his wif Also of their children, Elizabeth, 1858; Ulric, 1864; | Eva, 1870, Paul, 1876, Erected’ A.D, 1388 by | Martha Dahlgren Read.” —s OBDER OF THE GOLDEN CROSS. Visitations by the Grand Commander— A General Mass Meeting. The grand commander of the order of | the Golden Cross has perfected arrange- ments for a series of visitations to the va- notice of which will be given soon, in which a new feature will be introduced, viz., the introduc- | tion of a subject for discussion by the mem- bers present bearing upon the prosperity of the order. ‘The special committee of the grand com- | mandery to consider the feasibility of holding a public entertainment under the anspices of the order met last evening at Columbia com- mandery, No. 374, and decided to hold a mass meeting and complimentary entertainment in Masonic temple on the evening of Novem- ber 18, Applications have been received in Meridian commandery from Wm.

This increase of traffic is largely accredited to the wreck of the canal, and people are just begin- | ning to realize what an immense factor the canal was even in its later days. Apropos of this fact, the speech made at the republican mass meeting in the city hall here Monday night by Congressman Louis E. McComas was an earnest argument in favor of canal restoration. He cited the fact that such waterways as the Chesapeake and Ohio canal are the only prac- tical means of transporting heavy freight buiks, such as coal, stone and* grain; that the | railroads are not capable of handling these bulke in a satisfactory manuer, and never will be, and | fina!ly argued thatif the canal could be restored | to usefulness on a business basis it would bea blessing to the people of the state.

Eigh- teen pieces of music, including six pieces of the Marine band of Washington and the whole of the Laurel military band, furnished the music. The meeting was called to order by Wm. J.
