Interesting Addresses Delivered at Its Sixty- third Anniversary. ‘The sixty-third anniversary of the Washing- ton City Bible Society was held last evening in the New York Avenue Presbyterian Church, which was well filled with the members of the society and with others who are interested in the work of distributing Bibles to those who do not own sucha thing. Rev. Dr. A. W. Pitzer, the president of the society, presided over the meeting, and others who were present on the platform were Rev. Dr. Bartlett, pastor of the church; Justice Brewer, Mr. J. B. Wright, the chairman of the society's committee on distri- bution, and Rev. Mr. Scott, Mra, Harrison's father. In his opening address Dr. Pitzer congratu- Inted the society on the auspicious circum- stances of the meeting, the friendship of #0 prosperous a church as the one whose guest it was, and on the excellence of its officers and of the speakers who would make addresses. THE WORK OF THE SocrETY. Mr. J. B, Wight in his address told how the society is endeavoring to place the Bible in the hands of every child in the District whose rents are either too poor or too negligent to provide it with the aacred book. ‘This is being done at the suggestion of the American Bible Society, which has adopted a similar plan for the entire country. ‘The Washington society, withont appealing for aid to the national or- ganization, is defraying all the expenses of its own work, which, according to Mr. Wight, is progressing satisfactorily and producing good e city in divided into sixty-seven districts, which are assigned to the various churches. In thirty-nine of these the canva: ing has been completed and 5,000 Bibles for dis- tribu tion have been asked for. About 4,000 more, Mr. Wight estimated, will be required to complete the work. ‘The report of the treasurer showed receij and disbursements during the year amounting to $1,514. There were received at the depository 7,363 Bibles, 485 Testaments and 300 doctrines. Of the Bibles received 6,274 were distributed. JUSTICE BREWERS ADDRESS. Dr. Pitzer then introduced Mr. Justice Brewer, who made an able address, in which he said that the ultimate object of the American Bible Society was to put the word of God into the hands of every person in the United States, and that of the Washington Bible Society to put a copy of the Bible in the hands of every person in Washington who did not have one. ‘his end could not but appeal to every true man and woman. ‘The Bibie, he said, never yet had led men into jails oF penitentinries and the army of turbulent and lawless men, whose increase is a menace to American institutions, is not an army of Bible readers. To put the Bible in the hands of such as these, to give it to their wives and children, was, he ssid, not only @ righteous work, but a patriotic work, for bencficial results would be certain. Rey. Dr. W. A. Bartlett and Rev. Dr. Pitzer also made addresses. A liberal collection was taken up to complete the sum of 21,000, which the society now needs to complete the work it has in hand. ne REE ee Drowned the Eastern Branch. On Saturday night Charles Smith, living on the corner of Nand Union streets southwest, was drowned in the channel of the Eastern branch and Potomac. Smith and Robert H. Olive were in a row boat fishing,and the former having an epileptic fit fell and with such force the boat was upset, both being thrown*in the water. Smith was drowned, but Olive suc- ceeded in reaching the shore. Yesterday morn- ing the body was washed ashore at the Arsenal grounds and was removed to the morgue. ‘The coroner gave a certificate of death from acci- dental dro _aehiis Saal A Sunday Stabbing Affray. Last night about 10 o'clock on 6th street southwest between G and H streets Fred Gar- rett and John Monroe, colored men, engaged in difticalty that ended in the stabbing of Garrett by Monroe. The wound was inflicted with s penknife, the blade entering between two ribs and inflicting a painful wound. After the trouble Mouroe escaped, but later in the night he was arrested by Policemen nd Murphy. It is claimed that Monroe Garrett because the latter spoke to his sweetheart. The case ould not be tried to- day ‘because the injured one could not appoar in cour ee An Infant Found in a Valise. This morning as Johu Whitten, special officer im the Smithsonian grounds, was passing a | bench he noticed an ordinary valise, in which he found a live white baby, well dressed. The straps were fastened, but the mouth of the alise left partially open to give air to the in- fant. In an envelope in the valise was a $10 Dill and a note stating that it was for the finder if he would place it ina Protestant asylum. Mr. Whitten took the child to the frst precingt ata: tion, from whence it was sent to the usylum on 15th and R streets northwest. ———_—_ Faneral of Dr. Mauss, Funeral services over the remains of the late Dr. Richard G. Mauss were held yesterday af- Some days ago Col. Ernst wrote letter to the Commissioners requesting move certain trees which obstructed the view of Lafayette monument, and which, be said, were valueless in themselves. The trees are located on the sidewalk at the curb line. Simultaneously Capt. Rossell wrote a letter to the Commissioners calling their attention to the numerous complaints he had received about these same trees. ‘The matter was informally discussed by the Commissioners, they finally referring the matter to the attorney for the District for an opinion as to who has control of the pavements (footways) around the parks of the city, Whether the Commissioners or the United States officer in charge of public grounds. Attorney Hazelton today rendered his opin- ion, which is as follows: * * * “I assume the’question involves the surroundings of the reservations and public parks in the city that belong to the United States government. I think the law furnishes a clear distinction be- tween the power and responsibility of the Com- missioners of the District over the strects and footways of the city and those opposite or along the public squares, reservations or other prop- erty belonging to the United States, and I think that section twelve of the act of May 17, 1848, State. page 229, contains the rule which should govern in this matter. Under this section it would seem that the obligation rests upon the United States government through its proper officers to repair and keep in repair the pavements, footways, &c., which have been made or shall be made oppo- tite or along the, Public squares, | resor- vations or other __ property ing. to “the “United "States. But “T do not think that the officer contemplated by this section has any authority to remove or cut down ornamental trees within or along such or reservations. And I know of no law of Congress by which Col. Ernst is authorized to exercise such a power. Congress expressed its will as to the protection of ornamental and other trees on government reservations by the act of March 8, 1875, volume 13, page 481, and it seems to have done so without providing for any special authority in the officers of the govern- ment to interfere with the property protected thereby. I think that these parks and reser- ations may Le snid to be under the control of the United States government through its proper officers to the extent proscribed by the law which I have cited, but I think that the question of trees, their removal or destruction, where they come within the meaning of the act of Congress made for their protection, Congress has reserved to itself. Of course that would remain for the courts to decide in pros- ecutions under said act of March 3, 1875. poset GEORGETOWN U!

PRESIDENT RICHARDS’ ADDRESS. The annual address to the graduating class was made by President Richards. It was an able and earnest address and just the one ap- propriate to a class of young men starting out im a new vocation in life. ‘There are many dif- ficulties, he said, in the way of the young phy- sician, but the rewards would not be slow to come or inadequate if the work was done as it should be. — SATURDAY’S RACING. ‘The Crowd Large and Appreciative—Who Were the Winners.

She ran down stairs, where she was met by Mr. William O'Dwyer, and he did what he could to save the woman's life at the risk of losing his own. Ho threw a blanket sround the burning women and extinguished the flames, but in so doing he was burned about the arms. Physicians were called to attend Mrs. Owens, but they found her injuries so bad that re- covery was impossible, and, after affording what immediate relief lay in’ their power, she received the last sacraments of the church and was then sent to Providence H She tied yesterday morning after night of suffer~ irs.
