THE EMANCIPATION CELEBRATION. One Faction Opposes and Another Prepares for = Parade. Atm meeting of the Poe faction of colored persons interested in the emancipation celebra- tion held last night the chairman appointed @ committee of arrangements as follows: Robert EB. Gilchrist, chairman; James H. Lewis, Beveriey H. Price, Francis 8. Golden, Jesse G. Reynolds, Joseph H. Richardson, George Jack- son, Jordan Johnson, Nathaniel Crawford. L. ©. Moore and Green Golden. ‘The question ato the best manner of cele- Drating the event was discussed, but no definite ection was taken. The general sentiment seemed to be against a street parale, and among the suggestions was one for starting a fund to assist the deserving poor, while another was the establiahment of a homo for aged and fallen eolored women. ‘THE COX-LEWIS FACTION.

THE MUNICIPAL WOOD YARD. Ledgers Have ‘Work to Pay for What They Keeeive. ‘The wood saws in the yard of the municipal lodging house have been kept in motion during the past two weeks, because of the large num- Ler of men who have been accommodated there. ‘There bas been an average of forty lodgers a night and when more lodgers came than there were beds they were put on mattresses on the floor. ‘Two nights ago an old man from New York, who was well able to do a good day's work, was among those who sawed wood enough sory for his lodging an When he been throngh the dining room and bath tub ho was shown to the bed room and given one of the most comfortable beds in the house.

TRE WASHINGTON ASSOCIATION CELEBRATES ITS MAJORITY—THE COLLZOE MEX AND THEIR DISTINGUISHED GUESTS —- TALKS BY WELL- KNOWN SPEAKERS. ‘Twenty-one years ago was formed the Prince- ton Alumni Association of the District of Columbia, so that the annual dinner of the asso- ciation last night was in the nature of a cele- bration of its majority. The tiger was out in force, the tiger of old Nassau, and he made his lair in the university resound with mirth and gayet: It was Princeton's night and the loyal sons of the old New Jersey college who get together every year to sing the praises of their alma mater had things all their own way. Even the strangers within their gates, the guests from other colleges, had nothing but good words to say of the famous institution. Harvard, Yale, Amherst and the University of Virginia all had representatives at the dinner, but they were there in their capacity as outsiders, though they were given a chance to speak for their reapec- tive ‘Two justices of the Supreme Court, Senator and a member of Congress lont their dignity to the occasion, while a num- ber of young lawyers who if they lived, any- where else than in Washington would probably soon be in Congress or on the bench sat at the other end of the table and might have borrowed ail the dignity there wasto lend without having any too much even then. ‘The dinner was the most enthusiastic and successful that the association has ever had. It did 4 wise thing in going aside from the usual method of having such dinners at hotels, for the University Clab proved to be a most dosira- ble place for giving such entertamments. ‘The Sable was eet in the largest dining room of the club house, and seats were placed about it for upward of fifty guests. Down the center of the table ran a rich decoration of orange and black silk and handsome ‘flowers were used in profusion. Under a big pair of elk’s antlers on the wail at ons end of the room sat Mr. John H. Voorhees, the president of the association. At his right was Justice Brewer of the Supreme Court and at his left Justice Brown, who is also the president of the University Club. Mr. Voor- hees is the oldest graduate in the association, or so the records say, but last night he was one of the boys and & most bappy success in his capacity of toastmaster. OFFICERS FoR THE YEAR Before the dinner a brief business session was held in one of the rooms of the club house, at which a letter was read from President Voor- hees, who has been at the head of the associ tion for many years past, expressing his thanks for the honor done him ‘in previous years, but declining a re-election. Mr. Joseph K. McCam- mon was elected to the office for the ensuing year. On motion Mr. Henry C. Stewart, jr., was instructed, as secretary, to cast one vote for the officers that had held over from Inst year. Mr. Voorhees and Mr. James M. Johnson were added to the list of vice presidents. It was 8 o'clock when the party sat down to the tabie, and a couple of hours later, when the handsome and elaborate banquet bad been dis- posed ofthe speaking came with the coffee and cigars. ‘One of the pleasantest features of the evening was the presentation of a heavy gold medal by the association to Mr. Donald Wallace MeLean, « member of the clase of 06. A year the ‘association agreed to present a gol Sadal to the young man who passed the bost entrance examination for the freshman class at Princeton and Mr. MeLean, who bad earned the award, was invited to come on as aguest of THE VOTE IN DETAIL.

Mr. Voorhees made the presentation in a few pleasant words and the recipient replied in a graceful speech of thanks. When he arose to speak he was greeted with the college song that has greeted many another young man, “Where, ob, Where, ia the Verdant Freshman?" When ‘he ‘bad fin ished speaking they sang “For He's a Jolly Good Fellow.” TALKING FOR TALE. Justice Brewer was called upon to speak for Yale, and this he did right royally. He did not forget to call attention to the fact that there are three Yale men on the Supreme bench, no Yale man ever does forget that, but after he bad proved Yale's superiority tothe rest of the world he admitted that some of the best men who bad ever sat upon that bench were from Princeton. As they stand now the two colleges are tied, exch having had one chief justice and fix associate justices. Mr. Brewer said that he had heard from one member of the bench that the best thing about the appointment of Mr. Jackson was the fact that ho was nota Yale man. If he bad been there would be no more living in comfort on the beneh. Mr. Brewer's h was extremely entertaining and was flied with clever refereuces to, varions gentle- men about the board. He paid a pleasant tribute to the gray heads, and created a great deal of laughter by referring to one of the cleverest young lawyers in the city as having anempty head simply becanse that gentleman fe bald.” He sat down with the remark that the judge's function was to listen to the lawyers, and not to talk. ate of the University of poke for the latter institution, which bo said was a very simple college, with no luxuries and lacking some of the comforts of life. Still, it is a good place, said he, to get an education, for even though the student does not learn muca from books he receives an education, for he learns reap2ct for himself and for others, EDUCATION AND ATHLETICS, Justice Brown followed in a pleasant address upon Princeton and higher education and the influence of athletics in college life. He said that up to the time of the appointment of Jus- tice Shiras Princeton had held a majority upon the Supreme bench, and since the two institu- tions were tied there was a fellowship between college men that made them congenial spirits wherever they met. Education had a unifying ject in politics as elsewhere, he said. ‘The hostilities were stirred up by uneducated men and it was asud day when the educated men were seen leaving any perty. Athletics were becoming a great factor in college life and a most useful factor, and that gymnasiums were becoming as receseary as chapels he considered @grest advancement. To tram up a race of strong men was secondary in importance to the training of intellectual men. EDUCATION AND POLITICS. Representative Sharman Hoar, a graduate of Harvard, remarked upon tho fact that each of the three greatest colleges—Harvard, Yale and Princeton—had three men in the House of Rep- Tesentatives. Mercer University of Georgia had seven, and every one of them had voted that day for free silver. There were 117 col- lege men in Congress, but only seventeen acted as though they were. Of demagogues there Were enough, of uneducated heroes there were enough. It was a mistaken impression that college men wanted to establish an aristocracy of education, Men who kuew their powers, who knew the needs of the country, and were ApPLY those powers to thiose needs, were wan The carping at educated men was a tendency which Mr. Hoar decried. “A Song to Hawaii” was the title of « patri- otic poem read by Hev. J. H. Cuthbert, and at its conclusion the company sang “The Star Spangled Banner.” OTHER SPEECHES. Senator Gray of Delaware also spoke of the value of athletics in a collegiate course. Re- marks were also made by Mr. McCammon, Mr. Thomas W. Sidwell, Mr. Wm. E. Annin, Mr. Henry E. Davis, Mr. Barry Balkley and Mr. Victor Kauffmann, and the evening closed with the singing of “Auld Lang Syne.

The Oath to Which Attorney General Bates Required His Subordinates to Subscribe. Col. Clay, chief clerk of the Department of Justice, in ransacking the files of that depart- mentafew days ago came across a curious document in the handwriting of Attorney Gen- eral Bates. By accident he omitted the word “States” in United States, The document ful- lows: Artonszy Gesznat’s Orricr, April 19, 1861. In the present crisis of public affairs and be- cause there are instances daily coming to light of official unfaithfulness to the government it has been deemed proper to require all persons engaged in the departments to renew their pledge of loyalty to the government. Therefore I propose tomorrow morning at 9:30 o'clock in this office to take an oath (10! self setting the example and all others belong- ing to the office following) to this effect: “I, Edward Bates, Attorney General of the United States (or assistant attorney general or clerk in the Attorney General's office), do sol- emnly swear that I will support, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States and that Iwill bear true faith and loyalty to the government of the United States, as estab- hshed by the Constitution and the laws. So help me God. Epw. Bats.” ‘The oath herein. was taken and subscribed on the 20th of April, 1861, by Edward Bates, At- torney General; “I. J. Coffey, assistant nttor- ney general; Rd.

In acireular of the forestry division of the Department of Agriculture, issued about a year ago, it was stated that tests made on timbers of longleaf pine, bled or unbled, lent countenance to the belief that bled or tapped timber did not suffer in strength by virtue of the tapping. Ina new circular just issued it is said that further tests and examinations per- mit now the announcement without reserve that the timber of longleaf pine isin no way affected by the tapping for turpentine. ‘This refers to its mechanical as well as chemical roperties, and hence even the reservation that it might suffer in durability is now eliminated, and any prejudice against the use of bled timber in construction wherever the unbled timber has been considered desirable must fall as having no foundation in fact, being based only on vague belief proved to be erroneous. Tt is to be hoped that this fact will be mado widely known among builders, architects and engineers who have hitherto made discrimina- tion against bled timber and thereby depro- ciated or discouraged the manufacture and im- peded the sale of an article which answers all the purposes of construction and the nnre- stricted use of which is dictated by true cor momy. ‘The somewhat puzzling fact that bled timber exhibited, if anything, greater strength in the tests has been accounted for by the fact that the turpentine orchards are located mostly on sites ‘which produce better ~~ timber as well as larger yield of turpentine.

A Method Suggested of Increasing the Value | It is = Product of Coal Tar and Probably of the Coins. ‘To the Editor of The Evening Star: The adjustment of our silver coinage so as to make the silver dollar equal in value to a gold ‘Will Prove an Important Industry. An industry still young, but unquestionably with ® great mercantile future, 1 that of saccharine, e product of coal tar. It is a sub- dollar is the most important financial problem stitute for sugar, has none of its bulk, and is so which will be presented to the incoming admin- | powerful that it is three hundred times sweeter. istration for solution. A standard ailver dollar, such as is now im circulation, weighs 4123¢ grains, of which 8714 are pure silver and 413¢ copper. At the present rate of silver bullion, viz., 84 cents per ounce of 480 grains. the valne of the silver in a standard silver dollar is only 64 cents and 93¢ mills, the value of the copper at 12 cents per pound avoirdupois being too small to be practically taken into account, The intrinsic value of the silver dollar has steadily declined since 1878, when it was elightly above BR caval to $1.004. until toward the close of it year, when it reached ite minimum value of 64 cents and 2 mills, and during the same inter- val the commercial value of silver bullion varied from $1.2929 (its par value) to about 83 cents per ounce. Solongas gold ix regarded as the absolute stendard of value the commercial | acti — of all the inferior metals must necessarily luctuate and the disparity between the pur- chasing power of the gold and silver dollars must continue. There is, however, one cir- cumstance which appears to have been over- looked in the discussion of this subject and that is that gold has sensibly appreciated dur- ing the last decade or two. A gold dollar will purchase more of any commodity now than it would fifteen or twenty years ago. The quan- tity of gold obtained from the mines of late years has not increased pari passu with the de- mands of commerce and the arts. The vast reserves of gold. held by governments, banks and private individuals have also sensibly diminished the amount in actual circulation. The motal has therefore become practi- cally scarcer, more valuable and more ‘purchasing power than it Bad sev- eral years ago when the supply was more "nearly equal to the demand. In order, then, to make the silver dollar equal to the gold one it is absolutely necessary to in- crease the intrinsic value of the former. The standard silver coin of this country is composed of 90 per cent of pure s'lver and 10 per cent of copper; that of England 9234 per cent silver and 73¢ of copper; that of France the same as our own, while some of the German silver coins contain as much as 25 per cent of alloy. Tho English shilling is, then, intrinsically more valuable than an equal weight of our silver coins, Instead of using copper as the alloy in our silver coinage why not use a more valuable metal, such as nickel, aluminum or even gold itself, or a combination of the inst two? The employment of either nickel oraluminum would not only increase the intrinsic value slightly, but would also be a decided improvement on our present coins, since they would be harder, slightly ‘lighter and would permanently preserve their silvery luster. Our | pa coins soon wear away and become dull in color, owing to the oxidization of the copper. Nickel is worth about 70 cents per pound and aluminum €3.50 or thereabouts, and the em- ployment of 10 per cent of the latter would add about 6 cents to the value of a silver dollar and would also slightly increase its size, but this very sligt increase in volume due to’ the low specific gravity of aluminum would be little or no inconvenience and would be more than compensated for in the increased hardnest durability and brilliancy. While this country does not produce much nickel we have an inex- haustible supply of material for the extraction of aluminum and the use of the latter for this purpose would stimulate the production of this valuable and useful metal and would also encourage an industry which is still in its infancy. The silver dollar thus alloyed would still be intrinsically unequal to the gold one; it would still be far below pai yet this is one step at least in the right direc: | If such advantage is gained by using | aluminum alone as an alloy why not go step | farther and employ both gold and aluminum? | tion, ‘There can be no valid objection whatever to the uve of these metals for rpose. Some of the Australian gold coinsare alloyed with silver instead of copper. aluminum as alloys in our silver coins would | led advantage in every re-| not only be a deci spect, but would meet the case exactly, the former increasing the intrinsic value and the latter the hardness luster and durability. In thia way our silver coinage can be easily adjusted to the gold standard, and it is by no means diffi- cult to make a silver dollar, alloyed with such proportions of gold aud aluminum, as would give it tho same weight and volume as the or- dinary silver dollar, and which would be in- trinsically equal to the gold doliar and possess the same purchasing power the world over, The intrinsic value of our silver coins must be increased if we ever hope to solve this problem satisfactorily. Neither the ropeal of the She man bill nor tha discontinuance of the free coinage of silver will ever appreciably affect the commercial value of the metal solong as the pres- ent supply holds ont. No arbitrary legisiation of this government or of all the governments of the world combined can convert silver into gold or make 64 cents purchase as much of any article a3 100 centa can. As soon as the silver dollar shall have been brought up to par much of the gold now locked up will paas into circulation, as the necessity for hoarding it up will in a great measure no longer exist, and the “silver cer- tificate” will also become a thing of the past. Gold, however, will always be the standard of value; the great difference between the values of equal weights of gold and silver will not per- mit any other: it will also always be used for transmission abroad in the payment of foreign debts, silver being far too bulky and too in- convenient for that purpose, but the latter must continue to be the chief medium of exchange for domestic use in every country, because there is not gold enough above ground to carry on the vast and ever increasing commerce of the world. J. M. Washington, D. Feb. 6, 1993, — ‘The Graceland Cemetery. To the Faitor of The Evenine Star The recent report of the District Commis- sioners in approving the bill making further burials unlawful in Graceland cemetery states that only one person appeared before them in opposition to the bill. The cemetery officials were notified that the Commissioners would hear arguments for and against the bill at 2 p.ta. Saturday last. The secretary therefore arranged to have the trustees of the cemetery, ite superintendent and several residents of the neighborhood of the cemetery present at that hour. What, therefore, was his surprise to be notified by telephone at 12 o'clock (two hours before the time set in the notification) that the hearing was then progressing, and that if the cemetery association wished to be henrd its representatives had better come into the august presence of the board immediately. The writer was therefore unable to notify the others in interest, and had to appear as tho sole representative of the thousands of lot owners who have friends and relatives interred within the sacred precincts of the cemetery, which fact was made the basis of the statement in the report of the Commissioners that but one party appeared at the hearing in the interest of the —_cometery, while numbers red agninst it, The charges submitted at the hearing against the cemetery were a reiteration of idle rumors which had ‘been heretofore refuted by unim- hable testimony, and those which have not Been are susceptibis'of being ifan ample oppor- tunity were given, This bill would offer up to the God of Mammon a wel ted.carefully main- tained cemetery, which, for over twenty years, ‘has been a “city of the dead.” and which has never been # menace in any form to the health of the sparsely settled community thereabout. This is nota matter in which but a few par- ties are interested. It is an injustice to thou- sands who have purchased burial sites for their beloved dead, whom they have laid to rest in a pot which was supposed to be secure trom the ‘unbridled ambitions of real ostate syndi- cates. The cemetery association stands ready to ‘ove before any court of law or any unpreju- Uiced body. of mon that the charges made against it are unfounded and unsubstantiated by the preponderance of testimony. ‘The writer has been called on today by two well-known physicians, who have each a large Practice in the northeastern section of the city, who stated that they were ready to aj fore any tribunal and swear that the charge that there was any sickness im that portion of the city, directly attributable to the cemetery, was ‘the merest nonvense. F. 8. Pazsaner, Secretary Graceland Cemetery Association. French Deputies Fight With Swords. A ducl was fought yesterday between M. Nor- bert de Benoit, deputy from Aveyron, and M, Marie-Emile Goussot, deputy for St, Denis, in consequence of remarks made by Goussot in the chamber of deputies on Wednesday. The two Tne use of both gold and/ ‘The history of its discovery is interesting, writes Commercial Agent Washburn of Magde- burg. In 1879 Dr. Constantine Fahlberg, » Russian by birth, but who had been educated in Germany, became connected with the Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, There he conducted a series of experiments on the tolnene sulphamides, in order to investigate their oxidation products, The outgrowth of this investigation was the discovery of faccharine, By oxidizing pure orthotolnene sulphamide it was found that it would yield a remarkably sweet compound. The amount ob- tained, however, was too small to be of any ho value for manufacturing purposes. problem thenceforth was to find other re- ions which would give a better yield of the sweet body. Along and exhaustive series of laboratory experiments extending through several years were necoseary for the satisfactory development of the chemical process of pro- aaction: ei As might be expected, a discovery of sui practical uiity bed to "run. the gauntlet of much hostile criticism. It formed a fruitful subject for discussion in various scientific so- cieties and journal. Attempts were mxde to show that it was not only deleterious, but dangerous. It is only fair to say, however, that these arguments seem to have been suc- cessfully controverted. An overwhelming mass of expert testimony is recorded in favor of rac- ebarine. Eminent professors, like Sir H. E. Roscoe, in London; Leyden, in Berlin; Paul, in. Paris; Von Barth, in Vienna, and » host of others, after thorough tests, have certified that the effects of saccharine upon the physical and psychical functions of the brute and human systems are entirely harmless. Saccharine in its pure condition isa white powder. Various exclusive advantages are claimed for its uso in the arts, household and medicine, To enumerate a few: It is so small in bulk that the saving in storage and freight is, of course, very great; its valuable antiseptic qualities make it especially available in pre- serving, as well as sweetening, articles of food, such as jeilios, fruits, &2.; its non-fermentable character. In the ‘distilling of brandies and liquors and in the brewing of beer saccharine has been used with signal success. Mixed with glucose, saccharine has a aweetness equal to the finest refined sugar. Further, saccharine serves adistinetly medical purpose, It is employed to disguise the unpleasant taste of medicine and in the preparation of medicated wines and other cordial. It has also been highly in- dorsed as a substitute forsugar for those suffer- ing from diabetes and from fatness, Unlike sugar, it does not go to form surplus nourish- Finally, it may be added that this highly concentrated sweetening substance re- quires only a little intelligence to be success- fully used in the household. Saccharine should never be taken ina pure state. Some iden of ita power will be conveyed when it is understood that one part of it will give a very sweet tasto to ten thousand parts of water. ‘Tasted in too large a quantity, as Dr. Fahlberg observes, it acts upon the nerves in sach a way as to paralyze the sonee of t jnet as powerful music stuns or deadens the ditory nerves or a bright light acte upon the optic nerves, Dr. Fahlberg has, in connection with his part- ners, devoted himzelf of late years to the plac- ing of this commodity on the market in practi- cal form. It is manufactured and put up in three ways, viz., pure saccharine powder, casy soluble saccharine in gravel form and saccha- rine tablets. The two litter preparations con- tain a amall percentage of bicarbonate of soda and are more available for cooking pu ‘The factory—and, so far as I am informed, it the only one of its kind existing— is at Salbke- Westerhusen, on the Elbe, Patents have been obtained in most civilized lands, and monopo- lies of sale (which dobar the ‘manufacturers from selling direct) exist in many countries, including the United States. —_—__—_e—____ IN ORANGE AND WHITE. Dead and Cream White Relieved by Bright Colors Much Worn, TS SATIN AND VELVET. Though satin has been the reigning fabric through many months no new favorite has yet come forward to usurp its place, But, perhaps, its enduring popularity is because of its varied and parti-colored shimmers and its opalescent glimmers. There are satins blocked with gay checks, satins ¢overed with flowers in their natural color, satins brocaded, satins striped with bright silk ribbons, and, lovelicst of them all, satine deep green, red, brown and purple on one selvage shading through intermediate tints to their most delicate tones on the other, These latter fabrics make bewildering gowns which suggest the fancy of rainbows cut into suitable lengths and falling to the ground with very refractive flares. Yet, after all, these bits of heavenly splendor become a trifle tiresome, and the recherche dressers hie them into plain rich gowns of tome pale color whose one dazzling effect is tleeves or beriba. For such gowns. white, green or clear sap- phire blues are much worn, white perhaps coming first in favor. ‘A handsome evening dress of white and orango is simply fashioned. The skirt is ab a oe Jain, smoothly fitted around the bij and falling straight to the floor, where the measurement is ten yards around. The bodice, without seams, laces in the back. Anarrow girdle of orange velvet accents the Jengthenéd waist line. A bertha of the velvet is caught in the middle of the bust line witha jewel spray. Very bouffant sleeves of velvet fall far off the shoulders. Around the arms, shawl fashion, is « piece of rare old lace caught with diamond stars to the corsage and its precious length to the hom of the skirt. “Madame with this gown wears her hair coiffed high in big loops. Around the base of the structure is set a little coronetof orange ribbon and jeweled mar- guerites. Tux Latest, ———+e-_—___ An Interesting Point Decided. An intorosting point in the case of F.
