To keep an animal of the dog by barking, biting or howling disturbs the comfort or quiet of any single individual, is unlawful, and it is likewise unlawful to keep any fowl which is objectionable because of its crowing, cackling or other noi The crowing of Caleb P. Archibald’s roosters so disturbed neighbor Ed. Pettis that today hi grievance was ventilated in the Police Conrt. They live on 8 street between 12th and 13th streets. Mr. Archibald owned chickens and among them were two roosters. One of the fowls seemed to delight in crowing before the dawn of day, but the other was more thoughtful and did not disturb neighbor Pettis until it was nearly time for the sun's rays to beam in through the windows. The crowing rooster caused the writing of an anonymous letter, and when neighbor Pettis’ complaint was heard the early morning crower was sent off to the backwoods, where it could disturb no one, while the more thoughtful one was kept. This, however, did not satisty the neighbor whose sleep was not sound enough to withstand the roosters unpleasant voice. Citizen Archibald would not part. with the fowl, and that was why he appeared before Judge Miller today. He was told that some thing would have to be done with the chicken, and he inguired of the court whether he could not consult his neighbor to see if some. arrange- ment could not be made between them. The judge had no objection to their making such an arraugement; but he did not see how they could stop the rooster from crowing. Mr. Dumont thought the only way to accomplish BicSeUhy UES iaias ay atl 0 tay F. G. SMITH, 1295 Pa, ave.

The four distinguished brothers had a happy mect- ing and a more than ordinarily happy visit with each other. Mrs. Field will continue to see her friends on Monday afternoons straight through Lent, though later on in the spring she wall probably leave town for a little change of air and scene. Justice and Mrs. Blatchford are still down south and have sent word home that they will not return for another weck, having derived much pleasure and rest from their journey. Mrs. Cummings is with them. ‘ Mrs. Ralph Cross Johnson and ex-Governor and Mrs..Carroll will give dinners on Thursday evening. Mrs. W. B. Moses had an unusually pleasant reception yesterday, as so many of her recent og were paying their party calls. ‘Mr. W. 4. Willard of New York, who i her guest; Mrs. and Mise Blackburn, Mrs. James Spalding and Mrs. F. 8. Presbrey spent the entire afternoon with her. Mrs. Chandler will have her niece ,Miss Chandler. her guest for several weeks longer. ‘The talk which Mrs. Maud Booth, who is the daughter-in-law of the general of the Salvation Army, is to give tomorrow afternoon at Mrs. Wanamaker's is probably exciting as much at- tention as any of the strictly social functions that the same house has witnessed. It has started in other drawing rooms discussions of the ways and aims of the Salvationists, and their literature, as well ag ali that which pertains to work of the same character, has the field for this week anyway. In fact the various church services of a more than ordinarily devotional character now in progress in the churches most frequented by those within the gilded walls of society probably explain better than anything else the noticeable lack of invited companies, excepting a handful of dinners, &e., this week. At St. Matthew's a mission conducted by the Paulist Fathers is in Progress, and the worship- ers are ready to answer the church bell from 5:30 exch morning up to the evening service, which commences at 7:30. Many members of this congregation who are spoken of always as romincnt leaders in all that concerns society in its official and diplomatic phases are prompt and attentive at all the services, which to the ordinary mind would seem rigorous in the extreme. ‘The services at St. John’s, whose swect-toned bells ceem always indicative of good thoughts and peaceful minds, call together its congre- gations, with many’ worshipers of other de- nominations several times a day. At4 o'clock, when the church is surrounded by carriages, itcan be casily seen that society is almost as hearty in its church going as it ia in its de- Votion at the world’s shrine. More walk at this season than any other, and this makes another reason why drawing-room life is a bit stagnant. After the 4o'clock service at St. John's and the other Episcopal churches the piously inclined and a good many more unite in a walk, which begins about H street and extends out Conpecticut avenue to the Boundary. The promenade is more interesting than.the Sunday walk is, for the reason that its component parts are better quainted. People are bowing and smiling at each other across the street, the flower shops are visited and everybody wears a knot of vio- Jets in the regulation spring penitentia: spirit. The couples waik leisurely or quickly, as the weather dictates, and after 5 o'clock all disap- seg from the streets. Home? Not ale 1 Lenten 5 o'clock tea is another great in- stitution. The society columns leave it alone so that it may flourish. If names were printed its influence would be lost or rather dozens and “dozens of cozy parlors north and south of the British legation where softly shaded lamps make every-day scenes a8 rosy and as attractive us scenes on the stage. Nobody seems expecially invited, but everybody who is needed to round off the occasion seems to get there. The teapot flourishes, and the beverage, which is served with all the grada- tions of taste and tint, from cambric to Russian, from plain china to gorgeous plate and steam ing samovar, goes in welcome sips down thirsty throats. Wien the tea-party gatherings lose their attractions, then it is absolutely certain society is up to something else in other diree- tions. The cabinet Indies are generally keeping to their Wednesday receptions, that is to say, they are at home to their friendx. These receptions are of course not looked upon by the public in the same light as those given in the regular season. It is not fair that they should be. In view of the fact that to many of the cabinet families the death of Gen. Sherman has caused a fecling of personal Joss, and as weil in re- spect to ihe memory of Admiral Porter, who laid at rest this afternoon at Arlington, these little informal receptions will be omitted tomorrow. Mrs. Blaine sees her friends nearly every day after 4 o'clock and the other ladies of the eab- inet are equally accessible to their friends almost every day. ’ Miss Mary Patton Sampson and Mr. William Moore Hatch of Stafford, Vt, were married last night at the home of ‘the bride's mother, Mrs. Sarah Sampson, Rev. Dr. Hamlin officiat- ing. The bride was attended by four brides- maids, Miss Sewell, Miss Bessie MeGowan, Miss Bosworth and Miss Kittie Patten and a maid of honor, Miss Beatrice Sampson, her sister. Mr. R. C. Campbell of Wheeling, W. Va., was best man. ‘The groomsmen were Mr. G.A. Chris- tinney, Mr. G. E. Fletcher, Mr. A. B. Veazey and Mz. A. A. Fisher. Quite a large company of their friends came in to congratulate the newly married couple after the ceremony. Mr- and Mrs. Hatch left last night for a wedding journey to the south. Count d’Areo gave @ diplomatic dinner last night. Of the recent wedding of Miss Suzanne Bate, the Times-Herald of Dallas, Texas, says: The young lady of today is a creature of caprice and she who can conceive of some novel, unique plan by which to wed, is the envy of her sex and the adored of mankind. ‘So when the friends of Miss Suzanne Bate, the vivacious and handsome daughter of Senator Bate of Tennes- see, n reigning belle of Nashville and a social favorite of Washington, where she has whirled away several gay seasons, received » bidding to her wedding to take place at “Island Grove, the ranche and country place of Mr. T.

Another Crowded Meeting at Foundry Church Last Night. INTERESTING ADDRESSES MADE BY MINS FRANCES: ‘WILLARD, MRS. CHAPIN, MRS, WALLACE AND OTHERS —THE WORK IX THE SOUTH—A MONSTER PETITION AWAITING SIGNATURES HERE. Foundry Church was filled last evening for the meeting of the White Ribboners’ convoca- tion, The speakers of the meeting were two of those who made the responses at the great meeting at Congregational Church, and the interest and enthusiasm they aroused then was sufficient to insure them a large audience last night. Mrs Sallie F. Chapin of Charleston, President of the South Carolipa W. ©. T. U., spoke on the subject, “Temperence in the South,” and Mrs. Zerelda G. Wallace of jIndiana spoke on “Woman's Ballot.” Miss Frances E. Willard presided over the meeting. On the platform were seated ‘Miss Willard and the two ers, and Mrs. 8. D. La Petra, president of thé District union; Mrs. Mary T. Burt, pros ident of ‘the New York State union, and Mix« Jennie Smith, national superintendent of the department of railroad work. The exercises of the vening were com- menced by the andience singing the hymn “All ‘aii the Power of Jesus’ Name,” under the lead- ership of the Central Union Mission quartet. ‘Mrs. Burt read the first pealm and Miss Smith MRS.

While a collection was being taken up Miss Willard presented a petition or pledge and called for signers. It was a pledge of women not to wear feathers in their bonnets and has for its object the stopping of the tremendous slaughter of song birds. MRS. CHAPIN ON THE WORK IX THE SOUTH. Mrs. Sallie F. Chapin described the work as it has beeu carried on in South Carolina from its beginning, when Miss Willard first visited the south. She then gave interesting reminis- cences of her visit to Washington to a conven- tion ten years ago and her connection with the work ever since. At the request of several ladies she repeated an original poe. which she had read at the convention in 1881. MISS ANNA GORDOX. Miss Anna Gordon, the assistan: national superintendent of juvenile work, is to make an address at this evening's session of the convo- A Large Number of Delegates Present—In- teresting Reports Made. The winter meeting of the Washington con- ference of the Congregational churches of this locality was begun this morning at tho First Congregational. Each of the eleven churches connected with the conference is entitled to a representation of one minister and three dele- gates. In addition to the delegations from the churches, which were well represented, there was present at the eession this morning quite @ number of the members of the Congregational churches in this city, who were interested spectators of the proceedings. The conference has a large territory, namely, the states of Vir- ginia, Maryland and the District of Columbia, but as the denominatipn is not well represented in these states the District has a greater num- ber of churches than all the rest of the terri- tory included within the bounds of the confer- ence. Of the eleven churches connected with the conference six are located in ‘thig District. LIST OF DELEGATES. The business session was prefaced with & prayer meeting, which was begun at 10:30 o'clock. It was conducted by Rev. Dr. New- man, the pastor of the Congregational Church. Communion service was then held, Rev. R. J. Thompson of Paltimore and Rey. 8. N. Brown, of this city officiating. The business session was then called to order by the president of the conference, Mr. L. H. Latham of Baltimore. Rev. Robert J. Thompson officiated as scribe.

Mr. Newman, in a suggestive way, spoke of the burden which it sometimes proved to be, especially in the cases of the smaller churches,,in entertaining the members of the conference at lunch during the sessions. He said that in some of the conferences a plan was adopted of having what is called basket collations. This was simply that the ladies brought from their homes various articles of food, which were added to the common stock, ‘The ladies of the church where the conference was held then merely provided the coffee. In this way he thought that the burden of the work a8 well as the expense was distributed. Judge Gray of this city said that the Marthas of the churches on such occasions were fre- quently so occupied with their duties con- nected with the church that they were unable cation at Foundry M.E.
