We are busy now, and the outlook seems to favor « healthy increase. ‘The northeast and southeast sections have gone ahead like magic in the erec- tion of moderate-sized houses. The increase in population for those sections has been so rapid of late that the necessity for new school buildings is apparent, and the time is near at hand when demands for additional school room will be made. THE PUBLIC SCHOOL BUILDINGS. “I don't want to appear egotistical, but in connection with our public school buildings let me say that our present ones are without rin these United States. Recently a dis tinguished London gentleman on a tour of in- spection of school buildings in this country told me that he had carefully looked over our buildings and he frankly stated that the Wash- ington ‘buildings eurpassed any he had yet seen. ‘Youare,’ said he, ‘twenty years ahead of London.’ 1' have always been in favor of cight-room two-story buildings and plenty of them. ‘They are the most convenient, service- able and les expensive buildings for school arpose. Let me say to you that the new East Washington high school and the colored high school building on M street near New Jersey avenue northwest will be models, and in my opinion will be so considered by the public when they are completed. A WEALTHY GROWTH TO PROSPERITY. “Washington is on a healthy growth to pros- perity, and I find that each year surpasses the preceding one in valuation of property and in continued increase of building operations. forgot to say that I feel dattered by a request from school _men of Lynn, Mass., to furnish them with the plans of one of our eight-room school buildings. ‘The committeo from Lynn when down here recently made a careful ex- amination of the schools, and i little realized than such an intellectual town as Lynn would ever dream of asking Washington for a plan of one of its eight-room school buildings. This gives an idea, however, of the esteem shown us, and Washingtonians are generous enough to aid others in setting forth the example she shows.” a AMUSEMENTS.

Yesterday was the first day of the grand double tournament at Bethesda Park. Mr. Jos. Enders was the successful knight and won @ handsome wood cart, taking eight rings out of @ possible nine. The ‘prize for the secoud best was closely contested, three of the knights tieing at seven rings. In the “run off” the Knight of the Rippling Waves took two rings, while the other two were unsuccessful in their last attempt. This prize was awarded to the Knight of the Rippling Waves and was a inand- some saddle. The third prize, which consisted of a fine bridle, was captured by the Knight of Montgomery, who also took seven rings. The fourth prize was won by the Knight of Fairlands at seven rings and consisted of asilver-mounted riding whip. Twelve knights contested for the prizes. ‘The sack race was won by Mr. Frank Enders. The cow race by the same gentleman. The shoe race, which was a great success, was won by Mr. George Curran. It was arranged that every coutestant should put bis shoes in a bag with the others and shake them up, then the shoes were poured in a heap upon the floor, each one was to find his shoes and put them on and get back to the goal, the first to take his seat to be declared the ‘winner. Many funny mistakes were made, which caused a great deal of amusement for the crowd of iookers-on. Today the tournament for professionals will be ridden, in which over forty knights will ride. MR.

Correspondence of The Evening Star, Camp Besson, Hanren’s Fenny, W.Va., August 26, 1891. ‘The second annual hop of company A, fifth battalion, D. C. N. G., was given at Green's Mountain House last evening. The wide Veranda in front of the hotel was tastefully decorated with flags, and presented quite a military appearance. Chi a soft light “o'er fair women and brave met for are not our guardsmen the bravest of the brave? “and all went merry as a marriage bell.” Music was furnished by a colored string band from Harper's Ferry. Refreshments were served at 12 o'clock and dancing was continued until 1:30 a.m. é Blue uniforms predominated, although thero were quite a number of the sterner sex from the Ferry andother hotels. ‘The guests from the Merrill House were Mesdames Kolb, Sasse and Turner, Misses Emma and Susan ‘Cook, Stells Carpenter, Minnie Snyder, Florence Davis and Jessie Cowling. ‘The gentlemen, some of whom are residents of Harper's F were Messrs. W. J. Murphy, 'T. B. Mis Ben Chambers, Wm. Stewart, Geo. H. randell, Richard Gundlach, Charley 'y, Chas. Turner and Dr. J. M. Shafer, Miss Laskey and Miss Madge Laskey, Miss Wheatley and Miss Kate Wheatley and Misses McKnight vi cogh, chaperoned by Mrs. Laskey, were from the Summit House. Among the lady guests of Green's Moun- tain House who participated in the dance were Miss Nettie Robinette of Washington and Miss Olivia Green of Baltimore. ‘The “quartet,” consisting of Misses Ida Buck- heimer, Mary Culichane, Mamie Kearney and Eva Beck, chaperoned by Mrs. Dr. Buckheimer, allof Weshington, left Tuesday, and were much missed at the hop. Among the friends of the guardsmen from Washington who have been stopping at the Mountain House are Capt. Chas. Smith and his daughter, Miss Mamie, and Mr. Thomas D. Leach of the pension office. AN ATTACK UPON THE CAMP. About 11 o'clock, while the dancing was going merrily on and our soldier boys were tripping the iight fantastic as only soldiers can, the al- most deserted camp was sudderly attacked by the advance picket line of the enemy. ‘Their fire was returned by our sentries. Those of the command who were engaged in the dance, alarmed by the firing, which was now quite rapid, rushed hastily from o sceue of gayety and pleasure to engage in the stern realities of war. Capt. Benson found his men in two sections, under the immediate command of Capt. Walker and First Lieut. Smoot, the advance being led by Lieut. Smoot, Capt. Walker following with ie reserves. ‘The attacking party were steadily repulsed, and after a sharp skirmish were driven from the field. ‘The fight was short but decisive,and after the smoke of battle had cleared away it wasfound that our men were entirely unhurt and the enemy had carried their dead and wounded from the field. Scouts Lowe and Buchanan, Corp. ‘Thomp- son and Privates Kohr and Brown, led by Sergt. Thorp, constituted the enemy. The attack was well planned, but Sergt. ‘Thorp says he was overcome by superior numbers. ‘The attack and repulse were according to a prearranged plan und afforded quite a sur- prise to the hotel guests and guests of the hop, and all were delighted with the exhibition. NOTES. “Ordway weather” has prevailed this weck, and the daily drills, parades, &c., have been considerably interfered with, but both officers and men have enjoyed the encampment very much. Private Brown left Tuesday in response to a letter aunouncing the severe illness of his wife. Private Prewitt was taken sick this morning and was excused from camp. Second Lieut. Boyer and Sergt. Pidigo, who were unable to leave Washington with the com- mand, have been spending a few days in camp, returning this morning. As Lam now writing a lively skirmish drill with blank cartridges is going on under the command of Sergt.

Georgia Legislators Decline to Indorse the Ocala Platform. A dispatch from Atlanta to the New York Times today says: The Georgia legislature will not indorse the Ocala platform. This is the result of a series of secret caucuses which have been held by the alliance members of the legislature. When the state alliance was in session last week it adopted the Ocala platform and then passed a resolution demanding that the state legislature, now in session, should do likewise. ‘This put many of the legislators in andary. ‘They were willing to talk wildly about finance on the stump, but when it came to putting them into the shape of a legislative manifesto they hesitated. The alliance caucus was at once called and the matter taken up. It developed that there were two nearly equally balanced parties in the body. One was ready for the third party and committed to the Ocala idea, and the other wus afraid to break from the democratic party. ‘The proposal to make the Ocala platform the expression of the legislature was antagonized by those who held that the democratic party was able to rectify all wrongs. ‘This resulted in the formulation of @ preamble and resolution embodying the democratic idea, which were proposed as a substitute for the Ocala plat- form and adopted by a narrow vote. ‘the preamble says the national banks should be abolished, the 10 per cent tax on state banks repealed and the per capita circulation in- creased. ‘The free and unlimited coinage of ver, it declares, would heal all the financial ills of the country. It was therefore resolved that the legislature should memorialize Con- gress to this effect, and that the Georgia dele- gation should be thus instructed. Now the fight will be transferred to the legis- lature directly. ‘The ultra-alliance members say they will be satisfied with nothing short of the Ocala platform—subtreasury scheme and The treatment of Gov. Northen and Senator Gordon by the state alliance last week has driven @ score of members off from close com- munion with the alliance and they will help in the fight to relegate Ocala to the rear. —— GRABLED THE WRONG LEG. A Gay Youth From Troy Comes to Grief in the Surf at Ocean Grove. ‘An Ocean Grove special says: Wm. A. Hollis- ter of Troy is attending the services of the Camp Meeting Association with several scratches on his face. Mr. Hollister took his first ocean bath last week. He was with a party of friends, and thought the bathing far sur- passed a plunge in the waters of the Hudson at his native place. He dived and gwam, stood on his head and cut up other anticsinthe water. Suddenly the idea struck him that he could create a sensa- tion by playing shark with one of his friends. When the next big roller came in Mr. Hollister took a header through it and seized what he thought was the leg of one of his friends. When the leg was wrenched from his grasp he came up to enjoy his sensation. He did not enjoy it as much as his friends did. He had miscalculated the force of the surf when he made his header, and, instead of grasping the leg of one of his chums he had seized the shapely limb of a protty young woman. As he came to the top of the water the young woman was ready to meet him. Mr. Hollister's smile turned to a look of horror,and he began uttering profuse apologies. ‘The pretty young woman was muscular and ee rere ore encampment 65 | yas frantio vith indignation.

A large and interesting mecting of Clemons Lodge was held at their rooms in Good ‘Tem- plar Hall, corner 434 street and Pennsylvani avenue, last evening. A number of visiting members of other lodges were present and took part in the exercises. Reports of officers showed this lodge to be in a flourishing condi- tion, both numerically and financially. A number of names were proposed for member- ship and duly received. - The following officers were duly installed as officers for the ensuing quarter by W.8. Rowley, 8 G.D.: MF. Mar- in, C. T.; Mrs. S. E. Hebard, V. T.; J. KR Mahoney, RB. 8.; W. A. Hebard, F.'8.; Mrs. M. R. Mahoney, treasurer; Mra. Deneal, guard; W. B Clark, sentinel. The newly installed officers each made short addresses and combined in. scratching his face. The next breaker upset Mr. Hollister and his charming assailant and the latter was compelled to her The man from Troy made a break tor the beach, where he was met by some of his friends. Dr. Nichols fixed up the cuts on his face. He has not been in the surf since. ee ES The St. Louls Exposition. ‘On September 2 the St. Louis exposition, the only show of its kind that has ever been success fully carried out for more than three or four yeara, will open its doors to the public.

Policeman Marshall told the court that John was s printer by trade and has only been out of the work house about two months. Idle- nese and banging about saloons on Pennsyl- vania avenue and drinking what he can getin them were the specific 08 alleged by the flicer. “Iam unfortunate enough to be out of work at present,” said the prisoner, “but 1 work when I can get it.” “The officer gives you a pretty bad name,” said Judge Harper, “and you will have to give bonds or go down.” BETTY GOES BACK TO THE FARM. Policeman Byer told the court that Betty Douglase lived in the work house and when out of prison she spends her time in Louse alley. She had just out $esterday and last evening she was on Maryland avenue in com- pany with Will Robinson. They were drunk and disorderly when the officer arrested them. rom = given ninety days and Robinson was in. The same officer was complainant against John Mahan and Charles B. Kenny. Both men plesd guilty to vagrancy. Jolin claimed that 1 was a pensioner, and. Toad! been stopping in the temporary home on Missouri avenue. ‘The officer knew something about him, and he told the judge that John had been arrested be- fore, and the last time he was released he prom- ised’to leave the city and resurn to his home in Philadelphia. ‘They were given thirty days each. Patrick Ryan, a roughooxing young man, plead not guilty when attaigned ona charge of vagrancy, and the plea of Thomas Ander- son, colored, was the sume. ‘They were ar- rested about 4 o'clock this —— they jumped out of a freight car that had just Teached here from Baltimore. They were on their way to Virginia to work in the brick yards, but Policeman Macy arrested them, and now the District will have to give them free board for @ month, and then they will probably join the army of Washington vagrants and be- ‘come permanent residents. BEEN TRAMPING TWO MONTHS. “T’ve been tramping for two months,” was John Raninger's plea when Officer Tracy ar- rested him. Bonds or thirty days. William O'Neal, a colored man, plead guilty toachargo of vagrancy. Policeman Fitz ac- cused him of being too fond of liquor, and he was sont down for one month. Meredith Gilmore, a man who looked as if he had seen better days, plead guilty to a charge of disturbing the ‘quiet of the county, and not having a “V” he stepped back. Policeman Holscy of the first precinct was a witness in the case of Alexander Rodgers, against whom there was a change of vagrancy. “He is a printer,” said witness .against hii, “and travels with Whiteside.” Like his com: panion, Redgers is fond of liquor and that seems ‘to be the cause of his trouble. He was sent back with his brother printer. William Thomas, an old colored man who lives m Maryland, was charged ‘with being a ious person. He was arrested about 3 o'clock this ‘morning near the corner of 3d and Istreets northeast. He had his Lunch bucket with Lim and his statement was that he walked in from the country to his work every morn- ing. Judge Harper released Thomas on his own recognizance. a DALZELL WILL STICK. He Declines to Withdraw as a Candidate for the Pennsylvania Kepublican League. Ex-Representative Dalzell has declined the Proposition of Representative Robinson, his rival candidate for the presidency of the Penn- sylvania State Republican League, that both re- tire in the interest of harmony und select a com- promise candidate. Mr. Dalzell’s letter is'very sharp. He says that the issue does not depend upon the choice of candidates, but it involves the integrity of the league itself, wrapped up, 4s it is, in the determination of the question whether the representatives of a minority of the clubs of the commonweulth can gag the majority. ‘Neither your retirement frora the field, nor mine, nor the retirement of both, can eliminate from the contest this vital issue. I propose to remain in the fight until this question is de- termined, If discord results from the Scranton convention they will be responsible for it, and they only, who have attempted to control its action by unfair methods. “But even if my intentions were different I could not give my consent to the extraor- dinary suggesticn of your letter that you and and a third party should choose a president for the state league. I piace too high an esti- mate upon the manhood af the republican club men of the state to believe that they would tamely submit to dictation from any one. ‘0 gag the clubs of twenty-five counties would be bad enough; to undertake to do the voting for the remainder would be even worse. “Let us have an open, manly contest, honest methods and a fair conventionand party bar- mony will not be endangered.”” Dalzell is making a fight against Quay. ——-.os—_ NOW CARING FOR THE LIVING.

One thousand dollars has been re- ceived from Mrs.Crain,owner of the building that collapsed. She sends a letter saying she wishes she could give more for the families of the dead.

The mayor yesterday afternoon received a letter from the widow of Thomas Williams of 135 Varick street, one of the victims of the dis- aster, in which she saysshe is too poor to pay the expenses of her husband’s funeral. The mage wrote to the commissioners of charities and corrections directing them to provide a coffin, hearse and carriage and to bury tho body in Calvary cemetery. Theannouncement that the search was concluded and the last ‘body had been taken from the ruins had its effect on the crowd, which with morbid curi- osity had clung tothe rope that formed the fire I Most of the people went away and the overworked police breathed sighs of rel ‘The bureau of incumbrances kept up its work of removing the debris from the street until 5 p.m. yesterday, when all worked stopped. ‘There still remained about the spot several desolate women, whose dead not been found and who’ refused to believe that there had been a cessation of the work of the search- ers. Indeed it wasa wonder toall that there was so large a/number of missing who could not be uccouated for. The theory was ad- vanced that owing to the fierceness of the flames which raged several hours some of the bodies were entirely consutsied. Forty-six'of the sixty-one bodies found have been identified Fifteen bodies are still at the morgue awaiting claimants. Twenty-tive per- sons are reported missing, and deducting the fifteen unknown bodies leaves ten yet to be ac- counted for. ——0- —___. A Fatal Hallroad Accident.

The closing day of the nineteenth camp meeting at Washington Grove was full of deep and abiding interest. Rev.

Mrs. Bozzee of Dumbarton avenue has been in charge of these services \d under her able leadership they were won- derfully biessed. Rev. E. L.

Dr. Richard Norris of Cumberland preached the closing sermon at 8 o'clock from this text: “Ye hated me without a cause.” This earnest, warm-hearted clergyman horted the people with unction, and « mighty revival began that swept over the large assembly until the altar place was crowded with penitents. Four had professed Christ at the young people's vesper service, and twenty- two more sought and found salvation. The doxology was sung twenty-six times at this service, and the church was greatly refreshed. mn Be With You Till We it Again” was sung. after a tender, heart-stirring address from. Dr. H. R.

Found After Many Years. Wm. H. Knight of Newark has just found his sister, for whom he has been searching thirty years. On the death of their parents in New York in 1856 they became separated. Knight traveled allover the country, and failing to find his sister after expending much monéy and time, settled in Newark twenty years ago. A few days ago he met by chance Mrs. Geo. id. Osborn, who for twenty-one years has lived in Irvington, less than five miles from Newark. A comparison of experiences resulted in the establishment of their relationship. Knight's family hae vimted for years within afew doors of his sister's house. eee A Sweet Peace Proclaimed.
