Mr. John T. Given presided and made a short introductory address In the name of the association, giggng the date of the organization of the old companies as 1304, and he spoke of the pleasure they expe- rienced in recalling the scenes of yore. A hop concluded the entertainment, Mr. C. J. Wagner being the floor manager, with Frank McLeod, Wm. Greentield and H. Kablert as assistants. More Room for the Elephants. To the Editor of The Evening Star: I don’t know what the plans of those in charge of the Zoological Garden are, but I venture to suggest that some better provision should be made for the elephants than they now enjoy. I saw them Saturday—a warm day—as they stood sweltering, chained like malefactors to the floor of asort of house that shelters them and ex- cludes them from the rir. It occurs to me that an acre or two should be fenced off for them, with access to the creek. The tence | need not be expensive, though it should be | strong. Wooden beams buried in the ground toa suficient depth and connected by a singi iron rope such as is used in connection with the derricks, at the height of four or four aud a half feet from the ground, would be all-sufii- cient. Elephants are not addicted to jumping fences nor whng under bars, so that one iron rope, an inch or an inch thickness’ would hold them. posts might be twenty or thirty feet apart and should be scotched bya prop on the outer side. The high, natural wall of stone on the opposite side of the ci would auswer in place of a fence on that side, and the creck could be spanned by the iron’ fence in the way proposes. Flo- phants are fond of water, and it would be de- Fightfel to.sce these ‘revel in the ereek. ‘They would keep themselves clean and would save the attendant all the trouble of carrying them water. T present situation is’ wretched and no humane person can see them with pleasure. If females should be added to the garden and should bring forth young it might be necessary to have a separate inclosure for each pair. ———_ " Mr. } Members of the Corps and Their Friends ‘Take = Trip to Marshall Hall. ‘The members of the Washington Light In- fantry and their friends, numbering altogether nearly a thousand, greatly enjoyed last night the inaugural excursion of the season given by the corps to Marshall Hail. The social prestige of the organization was magnet enough to draw around them a fair representation of the youth and beauty of thecity. Even the clerk of the weather was apparently with the soldier boys, for a prettier night could not have beon oa then arriving at the grounds at Marshall sic and dancing were enjoyed by as many as could find foothold under the pavilion. ‘The Macatester's whistle sounded the reeall at about 10:30 and in an hour's time all were within the bounds of the city, wending their Nar homeward. On the homeward trip music and the search light contributed greatly to the pleasure of the excursioniste. gece ecentesly THE HEALTH OF THE DISTRICT. It 18 Generally Good According to the Re- port for Last Week. “The report as to mortality during the past week,” says Health Officer Townshend's report for the week ending May 30, “indicates that the General health of the District is good. The death rate has fallen from 21.1 deaths per thou- sand inhabitants in the previous week to 19.1 for last week, and the mortality from acute lung diseases has dropped from 16 to 13 for the same time. ‘The noticeable feature of the present report is the large number of deaths of persons over sixty years of age, mostly from heart and kid- ney discases, after only sho¥t periods of sick- ness. There is a marked absence of any seri- ous mortality from contagious diseases, and thus far the ‘usual annual visitation of diar- rhosal cases has not as yet oecurred.” The report shows a total of ninety-two deaths, forty-two white and fifty colored. Death rate per 1,000 per annum, white, 12.8; colored, 82: tal population, 19.1. Thirty-five were under five yoars of age, 25 were under one year old and 23 over sixty years; 18 of the deaths oc- curred in hospitals and public tnstitutions. The deaths by classes were as follows: Zymotic, 15; constitutional, 19; local, 48; developmental, 7; violence, 3. The principal causes of death were: Diphtheria, 3; consumption, 13; diarrheal, 1; erysipelas, 1; typhoid fever, 1; malari: fever, 1; pneumonia, 8; congestion of the lungs, 2; bronchitis, 3; measles, 2; whooping cough, 1; cancers, 2; meningitis, 2; kidney disoases, 5.

PENNSYLVANIA BAPTISTS. Large crowds of Pennsylvania Baptists, dele- gates to the Baptist convention at Hagerstown, paid this place a visit today on their way to the Capitol, and their quaint ways and costumes aroused considerabio interest among the town people, who mistook them for the foreigners that have purchesed and will settle on land in Montgomery county. ‘NOTES.

Much interest was manifested in the proposed trip to New York next July to participate in the different prize competitions at the Irish-Ameri- can military encampment. The company has been doing some preliminary drill and. will undoubtedly make a good record. To aid in detraying the expenses of the trip it was de- cided to give an entertainment.
