Gossip as to What is Already Boing Done im the Matter. Just at present there is not very much being done in the way of preparation for the great encampment of the G. A R. next year. The hurry and bustle incident to the Detroit en- campment and the successful efforts of the in- vitation committee to bring the next encamp- ment to the national capital and the scene of the grand review of 1965 are over for the pres- ent. ‘The bard work of preparation for next year can hardly be said to have begun just yet, though many preliminary matters have been and are being attended to. Many of the local Posts have already appointed committees of ar- rangement of one sort and snother, and for more than a year the headquarters will be the scenes of plenty of action. There is a tremen- dous amount of work to be done, but there is a suflicient amount of energy evident on all sides to make it certain that the coming encamp- ment will be the most successful one in the hiv- tory of the Grand Army. Several of the local committee of invitation @ now ont of town and as soon as they are back again Commissioner Douglass will call & meeting of the committee to clear up any re- maining business there may be and to take Whatever action may seem proper. Just what il be the course of action pursued is largely & matter of conjecture as yet. There are some people apparently who think that the invita- tion committee should go ahead with the work, as being the committee appointed to take charge of the whole matter. Others think that an- other mass meeting should be held to appoint a general executive committee of citizens in the Place of the present invitation committee. COMMISSIONER DOUGLASS’ VIEWS. Commissioner Douglass, the chairman of the invitation committee, said to » Stan reporter this aiternoon that he was by no means sure just what ought.to be done in the matter. As Soon ashe could get the committee together again he would ascertain what the sentiments of the members are. He did not think, how- ever, that the committee should take too much upon itself and assume any authority that had not been properly delegated to it. He said that personally he thought that the committee is now oiticially dead. It was appointed to Fo, to Detroit to invite the G. A. R. to Washington next year. It has performed ail the duties for which it had been brought pinto life, and he did not see that there wasany- thing more left for that particular committee to = Ifit ‘went ahead with the work now he ought it might lay itself open to the charge, on the part of some, of having over stepped its proper authority. Mr. Douglass said that in his opinion the proper course to pursue would be to call another inass meeting and let the people of Washington decide for themselves what committees should go ahead with the preparations for the next encampment. eg 1S EXISTENCE ENDED. The Nineteenth District Republican Clb Adjourns Sine Die. The meeting of the Nineteeutn District Re- publica Club advertised for last night ended the club organization, and an adjournment sine die was unanimously agreed upon. The original call for the meeting and organization was made under a misapprenension. Atthe first meeting, held about two weeks ago, Henry Edwards was elected president, but he declined the honor, as he doubted the legal- ity of the organization. Thomas Gibson was elected vice president, Andrew Belt secretary and J. W. Wood treasurer. A second meeting was held and the legality of the organization was further discussed. It was pretty definitely settled that persons elected at their meetings would not be recognized by the central com~ mittee, and so an adjournment was taken and inquiry made as to the manner of organiza- tion. The result was that at last night's meeting there was a short discussion, followed by the adjournment. ir. Andrew Gleeson is the presiden> of the nineteenth district, but since his election to that office four years ago he has remove! from the distric:, which was thought by some to be @ disqualification, and for their purposes he was considered, a8 not a membe= of any com- mittee, as a representative of that district. Consequently the men who formed the club were urged on by the leaders of one faction in the hope. no doubt, that the organization would favor that particular faction and prob- ably send a representative to the central com- mittee in place of Mr. Gleeson. ‘The arrangement was well planned, but, with information from another source, the members of the club thus organized saw that their trouble was all for nothing and ended it. ——— Excursions. The Elks’ last excursion of the season takes place tomorrow evening. Two boats have been engaged, the Macalester and Wakefield, the latter going as far as Indian Head, stopping at Marshall Hall going and returning. An exe lent program, under the direction of Messrs.

The steamer Arrowsmith will go to Colonial Beach and Colton’s tomorrow afternoon at 4 o'clock. The joint excursion to Marshall Hall this evening of the Iilinvis and Wisconsin Associa- tions promises to be an enjoyable occasion. The Macalester will leave at 6:30 o'clock. There will be specches, good music and dancing. There will be,a family excursion to River View on Friday, the steamer Pentz making three trij The National Fencibles will give an excur- sion to Marshall Hallon Thursday, the Mac- alester leaving at 6:30 p.m. The Fencibles havea large number of friends and a full at- tendance may be expected.

"A special’ train will leave the Baltimore and Potomac depot at $:15a.m. and will reach Pen-Mar so as to give the excursiouists seven hours at that beautiful resort. ‘The Crescent Pleasure Club will give an ex- eursion to Colonial Beach on Thursday on the steamer George Leary. ‘The trip down the river is delightful and there will be several at- tractions at the beach for the excursionists. ‘The Washington telegraphers will give their third annual moonlight excursion on Thurs- day evening. They and their friends, who are numbered by hundreds, will go to Marshall Hall on the steamer Macalester, which will leave at 6:30 p.m. The committee in charge have made every arrangement for the comfort andenjoyment of their guests and a thor- oughly good time may be anticipated. ae D. P. Holloway Lodge. A well-attended meeting of D. P. Holloway Lodge, L O. G. T., was held at their roome, As- sociation Hall, corner of Sth and G streets northwest, last evening.

Amusements, Pe ALBavoi ly pleasing opera “Dorothy” was mite enjoy at Albaugh’s last night. It is one of the best features of the Carleton repertoire, for, while never boister- ous as to fun nor st ing as to musical effects, it preserves an even excellence in both respects that is certain to give enjoyment. Mr. Carle- ton was warmly welcomed on. his first appear- ance durii ‘engagement. By special re~ quest he mag. “Rose Marie,” and’ he sang the beautiful ballad with his usual success. J. K. Murray finds a part that is well suited to him in Squire Bantam, and he makes the 601 “Chanticleer Hall” one of the distinctly excel- Ient incidents of the performance. The evening was also made interesting by the appearance in @ part of some im- ortauce of Miss Dorothy Downing, the nffalo lady who joined the company here under circtmstances which attracted consid- erable attention. went through with all that fell to her share in a manner that deserved approval and encouragement. She has an un- usually good voice and_an evident appreciation of the requirements of her work. W. H. Fitz- erald gave an excellent impersonation of larry Sherwood both musically and dramatic- ally, and C, A. Bigelowextracted a large amount of fun from the role of Lurcher. Miss Clara Lane in the title role and Miss Marion Langdon as Phyliis both won approval. Miss Alice Vin- cent looked ticularly handsome as Lydia and carried the role in a capable manner, and ‘Miss Clara Wisdom smothered her charms and made the character of Mrs. Privett as grotesque as it was possible to be. ain tonight. Hareis Bizov.—When the o in went up for the first time this season at Harris’ Bijou ‘Theater last night the lower floor was com- pletely filled ‘aud the upper portion of the jouse crowded to its greatest capacity. Its decorations and furnishings fully came up to the expectations that bad been formed. ‘fhe effect was more that of a drawing room than a theater, for the new Brussels carpet softened the tread, mirrors reflected the people who passed to and fro in the lobby and palms wightened the general effect of the red and gold ornamentation, at the same time adding to the elegance of the scene. ‘The play “Uncle Hiram’ is a down-east play, which has all the qualities which prove attractive in this elas’ of production. Aaron H. Woodhull played the title role in a manner that kept the audience in roars of laughter. Miss Troja Griswold was greatly appreciated for her spe- cialty work as well as for her eprightliness. The play has a strong plot and the interest is sustained without detracting from the humor- ous spirit of the principal character. Again tonight, Kenxay’s Lyceum.—Kernan’s Washington ‘Theater, rechristened “The Lyceum,” entered upon a hew era of its existence last night. It made the step ina blaze of splendor, the new entrance on the avenue, as well as the lobby and the auditorium, being brilliantly illumi- nated. The purpose of the management is to raise the standard of its attractions and make the patronage of a character that will enable ladies to number themselves among its even- ing patrons. ‘There was a harbinger of success for this purpose last night, for there were a number of ladies in the audience, and several were turned away after the house was filled. The theater was crowded to the doors, and those who came after 8:30 had little hope of gaining admission. The attraction was Bobby Gaylor, in a farcica! skit written especially for him, entitled, “Sport McAllister. One of the 400." Bobby's reception last night had a warmth and enthusiasm that would have been gratifying toan Irving or @ Bernhardt. His character is that of a ward politician, and the incidents which cluster around a local political career in New York give him ample oppor- tunity to be amusing. There are numerous specialties, and all of them good. Special matinees for ladies and children will be given on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. ae Ee The Garbage Nuisanos. To the Editor of The Evening Star: In your issue of yesterday you publishedacom- munication addressed to the Commissioners by the health officer in relation tothe inefficiency of the contractor whose duty it is to remove gar- bage. It is clearly shown that the public health is endangered by the present shameful state of affairs. The question now is what is to be done. Your article closes with these words, “Action on the part of the Commissioners will have to be delayed until the return of Mr. Ross, who is now out of town.” It is not clear why Mr. Ross’ presence is essential. We have threo Commissioners, and if two of them are sutti- cient to “fix” things when occasion requires it would seem that a full board ia not necessary in a case like this.

To the Editor of The Evening Star: On the whole, the summer of 1891 has been quite cool, though we have had a few spells of intensely warm and disagreeable weather. But the disagreeably warm is not always agsociated with a high temperature. The location of the area of low barometer, and likewise the condi- tion and juxtaposition of the “high” has much and even ali to do with it. Under these conditions the gradients are far apart, that is there is no marked “high” and “low” asin the winter months. ‘The “high” will be only thirty and one or two-tenths, while the “low” will be twenty-nine nine-tenths (29'9”). fone couldconceivo of thentmosphereasa vast plain, it would, under these conditions, appear very” even. heavy lines on the map (termed the iso bars) indicate this on the same General principle os the civil engineer indi- sates on his map the relative heights of the val- leys and hills.

Mr. Joseph P. Poston, a young man living at 1760 K street northwest, died at 10:30 o'clock last night from the effects of a singular and distresfing accident. Mr. Poston was em- ployed last Friday in tearing down a building: in the alley between E and F and 20th and 2ist streets, and had thrown to the ground a crow- bar, which, unnoticed by Mr. Poston, sank itself endwise in the earth. Soon afterward Mr. Poston swung himself down from the scaffold by means of a rope, and, striking the crowbar, was impaled upon it, the point enter- ing the back part of the hipand penetrating the lower part of the body, making « terrible wound. Poston was under the care of sev- eral physicians, but his injaries were so serious that ali'that could be done for him was to re- Hieve his suffering. The deceased was only twenty-four years old and was regarded as a young man of considerable promise. He was color sergeant of John A.

The proof showed tho meat sold in the defend- ant’s store was spoiled and contained skippers. Shaw denied that he sold bad meat, and claimed that ho always showed his meats to his customers and they did not have to take the ment unless they were satisfied with it Judge Harper imposeda fine of $10 inone case and suspended sentence in the other. ‘The defendant said he was a poor man and was notable to pay a fine. He said he sickness in his family and ho has six children, in addition to his parents, to support. Judge Harper told him that such an act as selling bad meat could not be excused, asthe public health must be protected. ‘Mr. Shaw had to pay the fino. cares! es Avavst Daxs axp Nicuts at Atzaxtic Cry.

CUTI- ‘CURA ia the only positive cure, a TRE STANDS ON B STREET. ‘Net Room Enough Now for the Many Coun- trymen Who Come In. An effort is being made by District employes to bring about what they say is a much needed reform in connection with the line of country People who are permitted to stand along the line of B street next to the Smithsonian grounds. Owing to the immense crop of fruits and vegetables this season the number of country people coming: to market is unusually large, and the space for their wagons is not near large enough. Last Saturday there were more than 400 country wagons along the line, and they filled the street from 7th to some distance above 13th street, and Policeman Breen, who is detailed there, had some difficulty in regulating them, especially as he bad to look ater the many huckster wagons that were ulso there. The large number of country wagons com! in creates a scramble for the best stands, an that is what causes so much trouble along the line. The countrymen cannot all get them, and in order to secure them number of colored men who do nothing but hang about in that locality Keop the stands by holding boxes or barrels along the line of the curb. Some of them are empty, while other contain refuse matter, such as partly decayed vegetables and left-over fruit, and the offi are now endeav- oring to put astop tothe business of these men in keeping the pavement obstructed with boxes, which really anounts to renting sidewalk. Yesterday afternoon when a Srar reporter went along the lino quantities of unsound veg- etables were found in the barrels and boxes,and yrhen wagons from the country appeared Fo- liceman Breen removed the obstructions in two instances and the countrymen were thus pro- vided for. Food Inspector Mothershead has condemned large quantities of fruits and vegetables found there, but he haa fiever been able to find per- sons who will claim them, and being unable to establish ownership he has never m: to prosecute them. As the result of the trouble the Commissioners will he requested to make an order requiring the pavement tobe kept clear at all times except when vehicles arealong 2. ——— A LARGE BATCH OF PRISONERS. Judge Harper Deals Out Justice With a Free Hand. ‘There was a long procession of prisoners in Judge Harper's court this morning when court opened and the judge took occasion to say something about the character of O street alley. Charlie Smith was the person on trial, and the charge against him was disturbing the quict of the alley. The judge thought that in consideration of the bad character of the alley there was not much quiet to disturb. From the number of cases brought from the alley mentioned the judge said it was getting to be one of the worst alleys in the city. Smith was fined 5 or fif- teen days, and not having the money he had to tako the fifteen days. ‘THE USUAL PISTOL-CARRIER. There was the usual pistol-carrier in the pro- cession. He was Robert Williams, a nogro from the county, who was arrested by Police- man Ellsworth for being disorderly on Wilson street, and the revolver was found in his pocket. There were only two chambers of the weapon Toaded, but “Bob” had an extra supply of cartridges in his pocket. Judge Harper told him that when he went out to get in trouble he had better leave his pistol home, for it would only add to his trouble. For having the weapon in his pocket a fine of $50 or ninety days was imposed in addition to a fine of €5 or fiftoen days for being disorderly. Sadio Herzog’s maiden name was Burke and she was once a nice-looking girl, but dissi tion brought her as low as many of the fre- quenters of the court. From time to time she made efforts todo better, but each time she soon fell from grace and went back among her former companions. Finally she married a sol- dier and for several months she kept sober, but “King Aleohol” had got such ahold on her that she could do nothing but again start on, the downward road. She got on that road so often that she became one of the “regulars” at the Po- lice Court and her face is familiar on the farm. Policeman McCormick said he had warned her several times lately, but his warning did no good. Judge Harper gave her ninety days this time. ‘THE BOY GIVEN A CHANCE. James Robinson, @ good Jooking boy who looks as if he was not-more than seventeen years old, was charged with being a vagrant. Policeman Faller, who arrested him, said that | #04) the boy drank liquor and did not do exactly right about home. All he wanted was thecouft to give the boy a warning, and this the court did. His personal bonds were taken. Today was William Hoffman's first appear- nce for several weeks, and the only charge aguinst him was using profane language, He plead guilty and submitted toa fine of @5 or seven days. When Annie Foley, an old offender, was ar- rested last night by a policeman who did not kuow her as well as many others, she gave the name of an old chum named ie Sullivan, and so her name was recorded as Maggie Sulli- van, ali i When arraigned she Was so well pleased that the charge against her was only disorderly conduct and not vagrancy that she plead guilty and was fined $5. Ida Stewart plead guilty toa charge of dis- turbing the disreputable people in Louse alley, and she will spend fifteen days on the farm with some of her friends. THIRTY DAYS TO SOBER UP. Jimmie McDonald, it was charged, was found drunk on K street northeast, and the judge thonght thirty days would do him good. Mortimer Clark was brought in on an attach- ment to pay an @8 fine. He thought that his sonal bonds had been taken during good be- ye r, but the judge told him that he would have to get the money or ‘0, your honor.” “Then you will have to step back.” Fred Barthsheish was also required to ste back, as he was convicted of two cMarges an fined. Fred was locked up in the 12th street lice station for being disorderly, an& he in- Jared the building to such an extent. that an Additional charge was preferred against him. Fines amounting to $15 or forty-five days were imposed, Hobert Headly, for being disorderly in Free- man’s alley, and’ Mary Johnson, for a similar offense on Wilson street, in the county, were fined $5 each. os Gone to the Reunion.
