On Tuesday next the regular spring meeting of the Washington Jockey Club will begin at the Benning track, and if indications go for anything the meeting will be one of the most successful ever held in Washington. Work- men are busily engaged putting the track in shape, and when the bugle calls for the first {race on Tuesday racing enthusiasts will look upon one of the finest tracks in the country. The steeplechase course has been improved | and all that marshy land on the left of the in- field, where the jumpers had such a hard time last year, hag been filled in and is as hard |as any other part of the field. A brand-new ‘with all modern improvements has een erected, and several more are m con- plation. At present there are 341 horses at track. That is, there is that number of horses in Washington ready to race.

Very hearty was the greeting given the Rev. Elbert 8. Todd, D.D., last night by the mem- bers of Hamline M. E. Church. Dr. Todd is the new pastor at Hamline and he was wel- comed with as much enthusiasm as though Hamline had been pastorless for years, instead of having rejoiced in the possession of more good preachers than any other church in the confer- ence.

Martin announced the presence in the lecture room of an ample supply of ice cream and eake. There was almost a panic among the children in the gallery at this announcement, but the ushers subdued the multitude and for a while held the juvenile appetite in check.

Interesting Exercises Held Yesterday—Origin and Growth of the Order. Yesterday was a day of humiliation and Prayer for the Woman's Home Missionary So- ciety and there were services at McKendree M. E. Church, in which especial attention was di- rected toward the work now being done by the order of deaconesses. So noiselessly does this order move on its errands of mercy that only a few people in Washington know of its exist- ence. It has an interesting history. In 1836 Theodor Fliednor, a Protestant clergy, man in the village of Kaiserworth, Germany- founded the first Protestant deaconess home ever known to exist. Fliednor was not the author of the modernized idea, but he was the leader in organization. The first home was a suecess and numerous branches sprang up to do good ali over Germany. Since then homes have been established all over Europe, and so GFeat as een the harvest thut “American jethodism naturalized the project and put it in local operation. This was done at the general conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church in 1888, and there are now 165 women who have given themselves up to the self-im- posed duties of a deaconess. ‘THE DUTIES OF DECONESeES. These duties are defined by the discipline of the Methodist church as follows: ‘The duties of the deaconcssesare to minister to the poor, visit the sick, pray with the dying, care for the orphans, seek the wandering. comfort the sorrowing: save the sinning and relinquishing wholly ali other pursuits, devote themselves in a general way to such forms of Christian labor as may be suited to their abilities. ‘No vow shall be exacted from any deaconess and any one of their number sball be at liberty to relinquish her position as a deaconess at any time. If « man were to perform the daties of one of these deaconesses he would be termed a home missionary, be paid for his labors and receive personal and commendatory mention in the public prints, but the deaconess gets no salary: she works entirely “for the love of Christ and His name.” . THE HOME IX THIS CITY. ‘The deaconess’ home in this city is located just now at 133 F street northeast. It was opened last May, but changes which had to be made in the building compelled a suspension of the work until September. The deaconess pro- bationers now resident in the home are Miss Libbie A. Smith of Illinois, superintendent; Miss Ida L. ‘Thomas of Frederick county, Md.; Miss Ida E. Miner of Massachusetts, Miss Mag- gie E. Bell of Dorchester county, Md. ‘These are pursuing the required studies while per- forming such work as has been reported. ‘These four deaconesses have made over 1,900 risite during six montls” They have relieved temporal want. obtained employment for a number of persons, gained admission for the sick imto hospitals, cared for orphans and started industrial schools in different parts of the city. They do not hesitate to do anything in the homes they visit for the comfort of the sick or suffering. ‘The deaconesses enter the home on a two years’ probation, during which time they are Tequired to devote certain hours each day to prescribed course of study. Lectures are given. eack week by the different pastors. Having eompleted the two years’ probation and fin- ished the course of study—some as nurse deaconesses, others as visiting deaconesses— they receive the license of otfice of denconcss and are entitled to support for life in the home, but neither superintendent nor deacon- ess receive any salary. ‘The home is supported entirely by voluntary contributions of Christian and benevolent peo- ple and a great many such are having their eves opencd to the valuable services which are being | rendered by these mild, low-voiced women, who ive their lives up to toiling for others "The fiderat minded of all creeds contribute to the W mainte pene te te Ll wg ee | noble cause and the contributions are Srowing and her he proved greatly.

Ina darkened room inasmall brick house, 703 Lstreet southeast, within a block of the navy yard gate, lie the remains of Mrs. Susanah Nelson, who died Thursday at the very ripe age of one hundred and twenty-eight years, twa montha and nine days. Her daughter told Star reporter this morning that there could be no doubt about the correct- ness of the old lady's age, for away back early in the century when some ot her children were already grown up she used to teli them, and they have remembered it ever since, that she was twelve years old at the time of the revolntion and beside that “she | had three children in the year the stars fell.” She Lad altogether sixteen children and of these the eldest girl had sixteen, of whom but one is now living.

The White House is very quiet these days in the living part of the mansion. Lieut. and Mrs. Parker with Dr. Scott will form the house rty until the return of the President. Mre. | Kiexce started today for her home in In- dianapolis, as there was pressing necessity for her return. Miss McKee has also returned home. Mrs. Parker is therefore presiding lady and her greatest care is naturally given to the children. The little ones are in excellent health and are as happy as possible out of doors every day since the fine weather | commenced. Mrs. Parker had letters yesterday from Mrs. Harrison and Mrs. Di mick, dated from Galveston, which gave their impressions of the ney through the south as well as their anticipations for the tour on the Pacific coast. Mrs. Harrison said, however, | that the folks at home would, she thought, | have to rely almost entirely on ‘the newspaper | accounts, as in their daily program thus far there had not yet been much time to give to letter writing. The most of it that they can promise will be done during their Sunday rests. The time goes very swiftly with the travelers and they scarcely realize that nearly half the journey is over. Little Benjamin and Mary Lodge McKee are cared for as they never were before during their mother’s absence. Everybody in the White House feels responsible for the little ones, and it is just bit laughable to watch all the precautions taken to keep all ible harm from them. It was found the other day that the latch of the elevator door was just where little Benjamin could reach it. Visions of what might befall him if he sot playing around such a dangerous place startled those in charge and that door was at once go securely fastened out of the reach of the children that all nervousness from that source is ily alla: r. ‘The children are devoted to Mrs. Parker and she is equally fond of them, and their life un- der the White House roof is full of mutual en- tertainment. When Benjamin gets letter from his mother be is the most important young man in the neighborhood. Mr. McKee is in Boston, but will probably take a run down to see the children during their mother's ab- sence.
