W. Babson called the East Washington Citizens’ Association to order last evening at Baum’s Hall he found a goodly attend- ance of mombers present. This meeting was called at the request of the executive commit- tee. Mr. Miller, speaking regarding the work of the railroad commijtee, said that the com- mittee had attended the hearings on the rail- road. He had had a conference with a Senator who took great interest in the matter and he was assured that tho so-called Faulkner bill, which he was told did not represent Senator Faulkner's sentiments, would not pass, but in its place would be a bill with many of the ob- jectiouable features stricken out. They coulé Fest assured that the streets would not be blocked up to the extent proposed. ‘THE MARINE BARRACKS SQUARE. Mr. J. W.

Mr. Brown said it was proposed to place the Naval or Peace monument on Connecticut ave- nue. The committee was in great hopes that the barracks square would be converted into a park, and the approprixteness of such park for the Pouce monument erected by the navy was evident. The report was accopted and adopted. Mr. Brown, from the park committee, reported on the resolution in reference to the parking about the Eastern Market and the erection of sheds for improving the facilities of the mar- ket, especially for the country people. stated that at the next meeting ‘they would probably have a report going farther than the resolutions. Mr. Brown reported also that they would re- Port in the future on the resolution in refer- euce to the Kock Creek Park aad the tion of the Anacostia flats. A BIO DUMP FOR asmEs. Mr. Weller offered preambles and resolutions the Late Oliver Dufour. An impressive memorial service was held in the encampment room of the Odd Fellows’ Hail, 7th street, last evening in memory of the late Oliver Dufour, whose demise occurred some threo moriths ago. Yesterday was appro- priately selected for holding the momorial service, it being the fifty-first anniversary of his admission into the order, which occurred in the town of Vevay, Ind., soon after be had attained his majority, and where he rapidly rose to distinction and soon became grand master of the state. He removgd to this city in 1876 and at once became actively identified with the order here. No man was held in higher esteem in this jurisdiction. Hi and devotion were constantly displayed in every branch of the order from the most hum- ble ‘place to that of the high and ho: Position of representative to the ereign Grand Lodge, the supreme body of the order. Past Grand Master Charles B. R. Colledge, who for many years was a close friend and ardent admirer of Mr. Dufour, presided. After prayer by the graud chaplain, John P. ucas, a beautiful dirge was by a select choir under the direction of 4! in H. Seif- fert. Chairman Colledge then delivered an ad- dress culogistic of the lifefand services of Mr. Dufour, and in conclusion prevented in behalf of nunicrous members of the order w beautiful oil painting, to be hung in the blue room. It was accepted in a very appropriate address by Grand Master H. C. Hazai Other interesting addrosecs were made by C. R. Faulkner of In- diana, a life-long friend; also by Deputy Grand Master B. F. Crawshaw, Past Grand. Waldo @. Perry of Washington Lodge, No. Representative F. A.

Columbia Commandery, No. 2, Knights Tem- plar, was twenty-nine years old yesterday, and last night the members held a gigantic birth- day party in the National Riti Armory and invited several hundred friends to partake of their hospitality. The entertainment was termed a reception and levee, though it in- cluded the features of @ drill, a dance and a banquet. ‘There was something enjoyable for every one, for the lover of colors and pretty effects, the lover of music, the lover of crowds, the lover of dancing and the iover of the good setting forth that as “it is the matured ex- perience of ull large cities that the systematic collection of ashes by the municipality an absolute necessity, in conse- of the important sanitary reasons in- * “the prevailing manner of disposing Of the accumulation of ashes bears unequally onthe poorer classes of our population of their more limited storage facilities, ‘ore requiring a more frequent removal,” this city possesses most ample disposal of the same by a lands of the Eastern bran public dumping grounds,” “thet we earnes: recommend our honorable board of Commis- sioncrs of the District of Columbia to follow the laudable example of other progressive com- munities by introducing a similar system for the collection of ashes from dwellings at regu- jar stated intervals and dumping the same as above indicated.” Mr. Weller asked that action be taken on the resolution. To show that it was desirable he had only to point to improvements made in the last three years. Only a few years ago on botia sides, north and south, of the Cupito! there were public damping grounds and now band- some brick buildings occupicd those places. By making the Anacostia flats the dumping ground, he said, they could reclaim much of the bed of the stream. ‘Mr. Sperry moved to suspend the rules and adopt the resolution, but Dr. W. W.

During the course of his address he recalled many in- farni- Com- spelled ‘once more with the same regular ad- herence to the dictates of Worcester. Asection of the Marine Band was stationed in the gallery and at 9 o'clock the seductive music of the “Cavalleria Rusticana” was started and the rapidly arriving guests began to circu- late around the hall. Ina short time therhythm was noted to chunge to the positive markings ofa march, and the tramp of many feet, trained to move in order, was heard, and commandery marched up the stairs ‘and, into the hall in full uniform, with plumes nodding and swords glinting. A few apparently con- fuged movements and a whirl of color and the seemingly tangled lines of men were straight- ened and the commandery was ranged in a per- fect order in front of the stage. Eminent Commander E. B. Hay and bis staff were called forth from the ranks to the stage by the committee in charge and welcomed, and then in a few minutes the space in front of the platform was cleared and filled again, this time with the knightly visitors of the evening. ‘Mr. Hay delivered a short speech of welcome to them, complimenting the commandery upon the beauty of the occasion, the presence of the number of fair guests and upon the completion of another year in its long and honorable career. * ‘Then followed a grand promenade, which soon merged into the dance program of four- teen numbers. At 11:30 o'clock there was an intermission of about half an hour and the hall was neurly emptied asthe guests filed down to supper in the drill room. —‘Daucing “was con- tinued until nearly 2 o'clock.

The measurements for the King street rail- way having been completed it is understood that as soon us tho season opens actnal work upon it will be begun. The amended iaw re- quires that the Alexandria and Fairfax Passen- ger Kailway Company shall commence the con- struction of its linc of railway upon King street by the ist day of next May, and shall have the road equipped and its cars running from the river to the west end of the street by the istof August next. The general im- pression is that the street tracks of Alexandria play only a secondary part in the mutter, and that Mt. Vernon is the objective point. If this is the fact, and under 2 more recent scheme an electzic railway vhall Le run from. Sheri- dan's Point, a few miles below this city, to the gates of Mount Vernon. the pressure for the King street railway will be removed and the Mount Vernon line instead of connecting with Washington from the foot of King street may connect with Washington bya railway from “New Alexandria” at Sheridan's Point to Mount Vernon, or it may be that the Mount Vernon tourist next year may have the choice of three public routes from Washington to Mount Vernon—the present route by the steamer Macalester, a route via the Alex- andria and Washington ferry to King street, Alexandria, and thence by rail to Mount Ver- non, and a’ route by a new ferry from Mand 7th street wharf to Sheridan's Point and thence by a steeet electric line of railway to Mount fernon. A few months will develop the prob- abilities in this matter. PROPOSED CHANGE OF POLICE LAWS. The city council will mect next Tuesday, aud it is understood that Mayor Strauss will send in @ mossage urging council to take action for an amendment of the charter so as to give the mayor the power to suspend or remove policemen for cause, his power in this respect now being merely temporary. There is rop- ping up again the old proposal to change method of appointing the captain and the lieu- tenant of the police force and the fifteen police- mer. ‘The charter now gives the two branches of the city council in convention the choice of these officers, but it is proposed to so amend the charter as to create a police board and to give to that board the choice of the policemen the | and practically the control of the police force.
