A public exhibition of the stock will begin April 28, but the guction sale will begin May 5, and continue until all of the 250 horses, the pride of Maryland and Virginia stock farms, are disposed of. Most complete arrangements have been made for this fair, as itis the first of a series of annual events, and will, it is expected, serve to stimulate interest in breeding fine horses. The entry lists have been completely filled up, yet scores of breeders are demanding admittance with valuable con- signments of high-bred horses Every one of the thirty stallions to be exhib- ited and sold is of high pedigree and reputation. There are horses entered of all classes, horses to suit all purposes—the track, the coach and the dray. event is of much interest to horse breeders, but of equal inter- est to those who have a fondness for horse dis- plays and of great importance to those who de- sire to secure for their stables horses of the best stock. ee ee MES. EWIN'S FUNERAL, What the Ministers Said of = Vision Seen by the Dead. The funeral of Mrs. James L. Ewin at Foundry Church Tuesday afternoon brought to- gether several of the most distinguished of the ‘Methodist pastors and a large company of rela- tives and friends. Rev. George Elliott, the Present pastor of Foundry, conducted the services and made the principal address. He related in conclusion some incidents of the short illness of Mrs. Ewin, tending to confirm the evidence of her life of usefulness in the church; that her death meant transition into the better life of the “summer land of song.” One of these incidents was a vision on last Wednesday evening, which she related the next morning as follows: When asked if the light hurt her eyes, she said: “No, I can't see any- thing, but Isaw a light last night. It was brighter than any electric light’ It seemed to be some festive occasion, and I was in a great crowd and they were all dressed in white.” Referring to this Rev. John Lana- han, D.D., the next speaker, insisted on the reality of such visions, and’ paid a beautiful tribute to Mrs. Ewin, whom he bad known from infancy and at whose marriage ten years ago he officiated. Kev. Alex. Gibson, D. D., now of Waugh Church, was referred to as having re- ceived Mrs. Ewin into the church twenty years ago, and made a fecling and eloquent prayer. The scriptures were read by Kev. John G. Ames of the Episcopal church and Rev. Henry R. Naylor, D. D., presiding eider of the Wash- ington district.’ The floral offerings were es- pecially elaborate and beautiful. were Mr. Seth E. Tracy. Mr. Robert L. Bains, Dr. Wm. E. Dieffenderfer, Mr. Fred Van Dyne, Mr. G. Warfield Simpson and Mr. J. E. Pugh. Lhe interment was ac Oak Hill at sunset, and the angelus was rung during the sentences of committal to the ground—“earth to earth, ashes to ashes, dust to dust, in hope of a blessed resurrection.” eee THE MARINE BAND AND MARIE DECCA Both Are Highly Complimented by the Chi- cago Papers. The Marine Band and Miss Marie Decca cre- ated a veritable furore in Chicago, where they appeared in the great auditorium. The Inter- Ocean, in speaking of the first concért, analyzes the composition of the band, commends its general work and pays a high tribute to the musicianly ability of Mr. John Philip Sousa, itsleader. It also says: “The large aggrega- tion of brass and wood wind is excellently handled, either for broad heroic effects, the delicate phrases, or for the accurate and sym- pathetic accompaniment of a single force. Its prime virtue is precision of attack and finish, its second is roundness and purity of tone, and the third delicacy of shading, ané the fourth and final feature is the sympathetic in- terpretative ability.” Of Miss Decca the same paper says: _‘ The vocalist of the evening was Mlle. Marie Decca, ho came as a stranger, but triumphed in re- ring as an established favorite. She has a leasing presence, a soprano voice of remarka- Eie'range and flexibility, used with the skill of an artist of first rank. Her introduction was the dazzling aria, the Bird Song from “The Pearl of Brazil.” Miss Decca had a flute obligato very artistically provided by Mr. Henry Jaeger, and the instrument was almost perfectly echoed by the voice. Her staccato and trill were admirable, and execution of voeal tours de force surprisin; notes run- ning up to E in alt as clear as a bell, the trills and diminuendos being delightfully smooth and finely sustained in tone. No singer who has appeared in the Auditorium this season won such an ovation as followed this brilliant performance.” tage AT THE W. L. I. ARMORY. Brilliant Reception in Honor of the Visiting Massachusetts Veterans. There were a good many very beautiful women in this city who were not last night within the walls of the Washington Light In- fantry Armory, but the survivors of the old sixth Massachusetts and their escort found it difficult to believe that all the pretty girls who reside in the District of Columbia were not ag- gregated in one loving and lovable assemblage to do them honor. All through the day the veterans and the Worcester Light Infantry wandered around the city enjoying the regular Washington April weather and seeing some of the many features of interest. Some of the visitors were a trifle weary when they strolled into the Ebbitt House for sup- per, but there was not a man missing when the time arrived to report at the Light Infantry Armory, there to meet the sol- diers’ true friend—woman. Every necessary reparation had been made for the occasion y company D, the hosts. The great hall was profusely decorated with the colors cf all na- tions and with several colors that have not as been claimed by any nation. t. Miller had promised his guests an ex- hibition drill and at 9 o'clock he redeemed his promise by marching company D in on the waxed floor and putting them through a series of intricate evolutions. The applause which greeted the maneuvers was loud and long con- tinued, and when the company broke ranks Capt. Miller and the members of his command received a shower of gratifying commendation. ‘The drill concluded, dancing was in order and it remained in order until an early hour this morning. Gon, Ordway and staff were among those who the oceasion with their presence. A rge number of National Guard officers also ap) in uniform and added to the already brilliant scene. —— Funeral of Mrs. Elizabeth Stock Yesterday afternoon the funeral of Mrs. Elizabeth Stockbridge, daughter of Dr. Robert Reyburn, took place from her father’s resi- dence, 2129 F street northwest. The parlors were with the friends of the bereaved family. The Episcopal funeral service was read by the Rev. Dr. Douglas. rector of St. John's, assisted by the Rev. Mr. McKee, minister in charge of St. John's Chapel, and the final prayers at Oak Hill cemetery ‘were offered by the latter minister. psi ‘The Classical Society. Ata well-attended meeting of the Classical Society held last evening at the studio parlors of Miss Caroline L. Ransom the subject of “Greek Rule in Egypt” was discussed for an hour in a brilliant and scholarly essay read by Mus Sophia T. Townsend. The life and char- generals who in Macedonian’s world. conquests came to the throne of Egypt, were dwelt upon with es- pecial admiration, and the sketch of his work In creating institutions of learning in ‘His Home in This City. Maj. Peyton of the Richmond and Denville railroad, died at his home on Iowa circle in this city at mid- im-| night last night. Maj. Randolph was born in 1893 near Winchester, Va, being the eldest son of James Innes Randolph and Susan Peyton Armistead.

Papers Read at the Second Session of the National Academy of Sciences. At the second session of the National Acad- emy of Sciences at the National Museum yes- terday afternoon Prof. Lewis Bass read « valuable paper descriptive of his original in- vestigations into the matter of stellar motions. He showed the motion of stars to be in all pos- sible directions and at an average spoed of twenty-eight miles a second, the speed of our sun through space being about twenty-five miles a second. Prof. Ira Kemsen read a paper upon the experiments he is making to deter- mine the effect of pressure and temperature upon the decomposition of diazo compounds. The final business of the afternoon was the re- port of the trustees of the Watson fund, award- ing the Watson medal to Prof. Auwers of Ber- lin for his researches aud achievements in sidereal astronomy. His most recent work has been the reduction of Bradley's observations.
