ITS FORMAL OPENING IX THE NATIONAL RIFLES’ HALL LAST EVENING—COMMISSIONER BOS8" AD- DRESS OF WELCOME—A BRILLIANT PARADE IN WHICH EVERY NATIONAL COSTUME WAS REFRE- SENTED. For originality in devising attractive enter- tainments the Washington Lodge of Eiks have established a reputation that would be a for- tune toa theatrical manager. It goes without faying that there was a crowd last evening at the [iffes’ armory to witness the opening of the carnival, which will be continued nightly to March 5. In fact at times it seemed to be more than acrowd. But everybody was glad | tobe there and the scene was as jolly and sparkling with pleasure as only an entertain- ment under the auspices of the Elks ean be. The hall wus beautifully deco- rated, and glowing and glittering in| the full flood of the brilliant light formed a fitting setting for the pretty women who participated in the opening ‘march. ‘The | booths representing different nations were artistic in design and rich and effective in decoration. ‘They contributed to the wealth of color which held the eye and impressed the scene upon the memory. ‘These booths were | in charge of ladies, who, by their presence and | their efforts, will make the affair a success. the purpose of the carnival is to add to tl treasury of this commendable order the nonce co-operation of the ladies might be expectes work. In addition to the booths of the nations there is a floral bower, a post office, telephofie exchange and last, but not least, the heud- quarters of the McGinty Ciub. THE FORMAL OPENIS On such an occasion, when the gay company and the surroundings suggest only thoughts of pleasure, ary formality seems out of place, and yet there was a formal opening of the car- nival last evening. But asit was under the direction gt Mr. E. B. Hay, who is the grand exalted ruler of the order in the United States, it was not sufficiently formal to throw a chill upon the company. In fact Ed Hay manages somehow to diffuse a large area of good bumor and jollity wherever he appears, and last even- ing, so to speak, the feet of McGregor were upon his native heath. ia order that the car- nival might not lack the ofticiul blessing of the District authorities Commissioner Ross was in- vited to be present and formally open the car- nival. Commissioner Douglass came along to see that his associate did not promise the Eiks more of the territory of the District than prop- erly iay within che limits of the jurisdiction of the District Commissioners. Mr. Koas was in- troduced by Mr. Hay and proceeded to make Red Cross Association. Disruicr of Convmsta Avxmuany Rep Cnoss Assogatiox, Wasarnorox, D. C., Feb. 22, 1892 To the Citizens and Residents of the National Capital: As you love your homes, your children, your own lives, as you cherish the honor of your native land and its world-wide reputation for prompt response to the needs of humanity, let this appeal move you to instant and earnest nc- tion. Is was our own American Clara Barton who asked and secured from the International Red Cross Association the privilege of enlarging the scope of the American branch to include the relief of other national calamities, horrors and emergencies beside those of wur. How rapidly in our own Mund, even durin; times of peace, have terrible events followe exch other, demanding for the relief of conse- quent euffcring the combined strength and swift action of that organization. The old world bas now a magnificent oppor- tunity to grasp and appreciate the American Red Cross idea of preparation for calamities that may befall any people even while pursu- ing the most peaceful occupation. ‘The American Red Cross Association is not military organization always, drilling for fields of buttie. It ix the people, the whole people of the nation, ready at a moment's notice to spring to the rescue, under intelligent direc- ton, in unforeseen and terrible emergencies. It, is, perhaps, not assuming too much to infef that our citizens have become acquainted with the following facts concerning the famine in Russia: 1. ‘hat 20,000,000 of people in fourteen provinces of Kussia, owing to repeated failure of crops and extraordinary severity of winter, are facing starvation, famine, fever aud death, 2. That Congress failed to comply with the President's request to appropriate $100,000 tor the transportation to the suffering peasantry of Russia of the great supply of grain and other food products generously contributed by the farmers of the west. 3. That the best informed and wisest philanthropists of both continents declare the surest and most effective mode of reaching the actual sufferers to be the personul conveying of supplies upon chartered ships, by the agents of the American Red Cross Association to the Russian Ked Cross Association, of which the czarina is president. 4. That eastern cities are aroused to the necessity for extraordinary eilorts to meet this emergency and are orgunizing tor the work.

COMMISSIONER ROSS’ ADDRESS. He did not fail to speak of the beauty of the hall and the artistic decorations which made the scene brilliant and striking in the extreme. He referred to the fact that this entertainment, so lavish in every detail and so rich in all its appointments, was only another illustration of the growing greatness and glory of the cit He spoke of the history of the Elks, paid a tribute to its beneficent career and did not fail to mention the sunshine which radiates from the genial presence of the supreme ruler, Mr. Hay. After speaking of the respect in which the order is held generally he closed with ref- erence to the three cardinal _principies of the order—eharity, love ond justice, and regarding justice said: “The ‘pulpit, the press, the ‘public school, your order and all its kindred organizations, these the agencies, and not the sword or the cannon, which tend to hasten the day when absolute and impartial justice shall prevail, uot only between nan and man. but also between na- act of February 9% accepting the same and making the charter perpetual. —— Proposed Consolidation of Roads. At meeting last night of the Northeast Washington central committee a resolution fa- ‘voring the consolidation of the proposed Wash- ington and Northeastern street railroad with the suburban street railroad, provided that they be built within eighteen months, was adopted. Committees from the ditferent’ suburbs were selected to appear before the House. —— Election of Officers. At the first meeting of the J. A.

After speaking of the work being in such harmony as to continually strengthen the bonds of union existing among the Odd Fellows of Metropolis, he presented to Degree | Master C. W. Leannarda of No. 16 a handsome | bouquet. This brought some appropriate re- | marks by Mr. L.. who spoke of the benefit al- ready derived from the action of Metropolis in visiting each lodge in the jurisdiction.

Historical accuracy is adhered toin the attire of every member of the cast and they make a series of tableaux vivants framed in the most artistic stage setting. The play as a literary produc- tion deserves warm commendation, for its lan- guage is bright, witty, philosophical, in har- mony with the conversation and thought of time in which the scene is laid. The charac- tors are well drawn, because they are made to move and act and talk naturally, and they are ll played, because both men and women comprehend that they must be natural and not theatric. Miss Sadie Martinot seemed to com- prehend the spirit of that brilliant Mme. de Lompadour who held such sway over the French court and wus received with great favor. She hus a winning personality, is possessed of keen intelligence and fully Understands the art of dressing well. Her costumes were such as to set the feminine heart wild with admiration, and they were worn with a grace that added to their attrac- tiveness, She bas one song in the third act | which is excellently given, and the dance in the sume scene is delightiully graceful. Mr. Wilton Lackaye makes an effective King, speaking his lines with real—not stage—dlig- nity, and being easy and graceful in all his movements. Messrs, Kobert Hilliard as De Mone, Mr. West us Richeieu, Mr. Craven as Maw epas and Mr. Wilkes as Dr. Guesnay were all goou in their respective purts. ‘Ibe ladies in the cast were competent and ably sustained the star. These were Miss Sitgreavos, Miss Holt and Mixe Whitstane. ‘The play is differ- ent from the style most affected at present. It appeals more to the intellect than to the senses. It Jacks action. ‘There are no start- Jing situations and the comphcations that do arise are worked up gradually and their solu- | tion comes in the mest expected way. ‘‘Pom- | padonr’ is a play well worth seeing. It will continue during the week and ut the matinees on Weduesday and Saturday.
