Tariff Association. The visiting members of the Southeastern Tariff Association who are in town for their annual conventiun were tendered an excursion to Mount Vernon and a shed bake at Marshall Hall yesterday afternoon by the Associa- tion of Fire Underwriters of the Dis trict of Columbia. It was an immense success and about 180 gentlemen enjoyed the occasion. ‘The steamer Corcoran was engaged for the trip and Mr. 8. C. Rainage of the steamboat com- pany was on hand in person to look after the pleasure of the party. The Macalister would have been used for the trip had it not been that she was over in Baltimore undergoing a few trifling repairs. Three o'clock was the hour for starting, but it wasa half an hour later when the steamer started down the river filled up with good-natured, “happy insurance men. The grrangemsents for, the cocasion were made by President R. W. Tyler and Secretary F. W. Pratt, with the committee on entertainment, consisting of Messrs. N. D. Larner, Simon Wolf, B. Lewis Blackford, J. 8. Swormstedt nd Lem Towers, jr. Mount Vernon was the first stop and there the visitors renewed their patriotism by « visit to the tomb and a short stay in the house, ‘THE SHAD BAKE. Marshall Hall was reached a little later and the long tables were reached soon after that. It was a little chilly for an open-air banquet, but nobody minded that aud the way those luscious planked shad made their disappear- ance was s caution to fish. On the return trip the cold wind drove all the party into the ladies’ cabin and there the evening was pleasantly spent with music and speeches. Bir. Simon Wolf led ‘off with graceful speech of welcome, which was re- sponded to by several members of the visiting delegation. Among those who took part in these informal exercises were Messrs. Droop, Cross, Mims, Kuowles, Castleman, Nelson and Young. All the local speakers invited the association to come back next yoar and all the visitors said they would be only too giad to make Washing- ton the permanent meeting place. | The city ‘was reached on the return trip about 9 o'clock.

Permit us through the columns of your valu- able paper to call the attention of the proper authorities to what seems to be an imposition upon the property owners on Brightwood ave- nue (or 7th street road.) We have waited long and patiently for much needed improvements in this locality, and now that Congrexs has appropriated liberally for the paving of this avenue with granite block, we are very much surprised to see old curbing being hauled (presumably from 14th street Toad), which looks as thqugh it had served its | day and generation and had been condemned a8 worthless, with which it is presumed it is in- | tended to curb the granite block pavement on this beautiful avenue. | It is doubted if the Commissioners are really | cognizant of the character of the curbing which is now being placed there preparatory to com- mencing this work. Certainly Congress never intended to improve this great thoronghfare | with anything but first-class mate nd it is | urged ard hoped that at least nothing inferior to that which was Isid between Grant avenue | and irving street will be used now.

On the completion of his studies thero he was sent to Georgetown College, where he remained for eight years as teacher of poetry. He was ordained — in the college chapel by Archbishop Ken- rick in July, 1887. In 1867 he became rector of Holy Cross College. which position he held tor two years. From 1847 to ’82he was provincial of the Muryland-New York province. This was the highest office he held during life.

Father Kelly. e late associ- ates of the dead priest at — College, those who remember him when he was a profes: sor there and who were brought under his con- trol when he was provincial, speak in the highest terms of Father Brady's ability, his industry and his unaffected piety. They ioved him as a man and respected him as a priest, and their grief at his death is sincere and profound. Manoz Apert.
