Saturday night the con- test committee had a meeting and there was & wrangle over the arrangements for the coming fight. The upshot of the affair was that President Dickson stated openly that Wm. Schult, chair- man of the contest committee, and Joseph Bell, one of the members of the committee, kes in the grass” and had been working against the interest of the club in the making of the matches, As might be conjectured this statement caused arow.

The great apprehension of a flood in the river has caused many careful residents of Georgetown to take the precaution to remove out ofall reach of the water their boats and other movabie property which have been in store along the wharves and in the various boat houses. Yesterday and Saturday afternoon there was quite a lively crowd at the Columbia boat house removing the boats from that place to safer places above. Many of the private residences were turned into temporary store- houses, the quarters having been engaged until the danger of the freshet is over. ‘The majority of the merchants on the avenue who began ashort time ago to prepare for the anticipated flood by removing goods from their cellars to the large hall over the K street market house have now completed their work and the hall is entirely filled.

Rev. Walter H. Brooks, D,D., pastor of Nineteenth Street Baptist Church, preached at 1] a.m. yesterday from Acts 17:11-12. He said: When the Apostle Paul was at Thessalonica a mob of lewd fellows, men of the baser sort. as- saulted the house of Jason, his host, because | they did not agree with Paul touching the principles and facts which he, as an apostle of | | | uu tise and take hold ‘Blest Be the Tie So violent and murderous was the spirit of the | mob that the little handful of saitits in Thessa- lonica sent Paul secretly away unto Berea. Here the people were more noble than those in Thessalonica, for they believed in freedom of thought, freedom of speech, freedom of investi- gation and judgment for one’s self in matters Teligious and freedom of action in all things in which man stands or falls to his God. It is nearly 2,000 years since Paul lived, but human nature isthe same. Right here in the United States we have our Thessalonicas and our Bereas. Places, on the one band, where your life is endangered if you advance notions or principles which are not in keeping with the | views of a certain element of the community But, on the other hand, thank God for our | Bereas, in which truth and error, Christian and infidelity, republicanism and democracy, are free to fight together until the right shall triumph and God be glorified. emi: Cas A Contract Annulled. The commissioner of Indian affairs has an- nulled a contract made with the Sisters of Lo- retto for the conduct of a Catholic boarding school at Bernalville, N. M., because, as Com- missioner Morgan states, the sisters, in viola- tion of the contract, have enrolled in the school forty-two children who are pure Mexicans, with- outa trace of Indian blood, whom they have represented as Indians. Not only this, bat they have misrepresented the homes of many | of them, locating them in their reports in | places far removed from their actual residence, and still they instructed the children when questioned as to their residence to give false information. et < Indignation at Crisfield, Md. A great deal of indignation has been felt in Crisfield, Md., in regard to the iceboat Annap- clis not coming there. The suffering of the islanders and credgers is more intense now than at any other time during the freeze, as they are now unable to walk to the mainland. An indignation meeting was held Saturday afternoon in the office of the water company. Resolutions were unanimously adopted con- demning the action of the board of trade of Baltimore for sending no relief to a section of the state from which it draws « large share of its trade. It was resolved further that all efforts shoitld be made to trade henceforth with Philadelphia. The fact that Baltimore and Crisfield are rivals in the oyster business, it was stated, explained why an iceboat 1s sent to the relief of a steamer which has broken ber rud- der while hundreds are perishing from hunger and cold. Another meeting will be held on Monday to discuss the matter more fully and devise measures for the relief of the desti- tute. 5 | Tue annual address uf the president of the | Chemical Society of Washington be de- livered by Dr. Thomas M.

If she doesn’t find styles and fabrigp to suit het bring out her very best points, it is because she is careless or inartistic, or, to say the least, in- different. Here is a costume American from design to finish. It was worn last week ata reception, ad it was the most glanced-at costume there. The skirt, novelly enough, was smooth; yes, tight around the hips. An ill-natured observer might have called it an “old-fashioned bell” had it not been deeply gored and five vards around the bottom. The cloth, a brilliant robin's egg blue, which ran black lines exact! phoid chart,” as one woman whispered to ber neigh- Bor, was cut diagonally. It was finished with a broad navy blue ri bon, tied in a huge stiffened Alsatian bow, pre- cisely in the middle of the front breadth. ‘The round waist was of yellow satin, checked by small squares, with black silk cord. Through some coutourier’s wonderful skill the satin fitted from waist line to collar as though it were a seamless jersey. It seemed quite wrong to conceal even a por- tion of this achievement by a loose, satin-lined bolero. This, too, like the skirt, was given a certain stiffness by the navy blue ribbon around the bottom. At the breast the edges of the boiero were caught together with ribbon knot. The hat was lined with dark blue velvet and trimmed with black tips and yellow wings. Was not the attention the wearer won weil- soo McLane’s Will Afirmed. . art in General Term this morning Chief Justice Bingham delivered the opinion Allan McLane affirming the judgment below, which sustained the will Mrs. Anna Cropper, his deughter by a former wife, contested the Will, filing a caveat, and on the issues being tried the will was sustained, and from this judgment Mrs. Cropper appealed. earth.
