AI DATES OPEN TO THE DISTRICT. In reply to the letter of the Commiseioners asking what dates sre open for ceremoniez, s0 | that the District of Columbia could have a day | at the world’s fzir, the committee on ceremo- nies state that there are # number open in each month.

WANTS THE ELEVATORS INSPECTED. ‘The chief of the bureau of engraving and printing has written to the Commissioners re- questing an insvection of the elevators in use in his bureau. These elevators are used by a large number of persons daily, and he says he wants to be assured that they are in a perfectiy tafe condition. ‘fhe Commissioners have or- dered the inspector of elevators to make the inspection at once. ‘TRE NEW PLUMBING REGULATIONS. Several days ago the inspector of plumbing called the attention of the Commissioners to the fact that to avoid the extra expense occasioned by a compliance with the new plumbing regu- lations many persons are now taking out per- mits to build and make contracts for plumbing work, some of which work will not be com- menced for six months from date of permit. As the new regulations take effect on the 22d of | April he requested an opinion of the attorney as to whether he is required in such cases to | quire a compliance with thenew or old regula. tions. | Asx Your Gaocrn for Levering’s Coffee. “ApwrmaL” Cigarettes are agreeable and unequaled./ ‘They are not made by the trust.

The Doreas Society of the Aged Women's Home held a well-attended meeting yesterday. Mra. Thomas A. Dowling, the president, was in the chair. Among the ladies present were Mrs. R. P. Jackson, Mrs. Dr. Loockerman, Miss May Meems, Mrs. Henry Craig and Mrs. J. E. Ow- ens. There was some substantial work donein the interest of the poor. Several comforts, which are to be distributed next season, were completed. One of the remarkable incidents of the meeting was the nnrolling of small bale of cotton which had been sent the Indies from Gulves- ton; wherein was found s multitude, of stare mao of gilt paper. It is the supposition that the cotton pig tinsel stars hed once been mixed up with some Chrisimas entertainment. ‘There was a good deai of tal about the work aud workings of the society and a spirit of satisfaction was evident. At the next meeting a report of the work aceum- plished last winter by the society will be ren- dered. This interesting document will be pre- pared from data preserved by Mrs, Dr. Loock- erman. Itis understood that ihe society has on hand several plans for accumuinting a little cash during tis suramer, so that the ladies will be better prepared for’ charitable endeavors next winter. THE OLD METHODIST BURYING GROUND. Since it has been publicly known that the Methodist Church in i879 leased to the Mt. Zion Church, for ninety-nine years, the old burying ground at thé intersection of 26th and 27th strevis, near Rock creek, there has been a good deal of unfavorable talk on the subject. It is claimed by some that in the first place the trustees had no right to lease the property without the consent of the parishioners, while others say that as one of the covenants Uf the lease provided for the keeping of the place in good condition, and this has not been done, the colored people have waived the right to the of it. So many conilicting stories told of the graveyard’s that a Srax reporter, in order to learn the condition of things, yesterday paid | a visit to tho isolated spot. ‘The surrounding fence, which was reported to be lying dilapi- dated on the ground, was found to be about eight feet high, excellently braced and in good condition all round. The paths between the | scores of lots were well-defined and kepi: neatly every grove seen was not only sodded, | but well rounded. and with one or two excep- | tions every tomb in the cemetery was in an up- right position. No briars or unsightly chrubbery werein sight | and generally specking the piace had the up- pearancy of havjng bad much and constant | care bestowed upon it. Co!.

Between the Mount Zion graveyard | and the acquired Metho operty isa weil- | strung, vine-clothed barbed wire fence. | It has been said also that the eolored pecple | had been buried indiscriminately among the | whites, but investigation showed this not to be | true, as all the new graves were seen in one sec- and the grave digger stated that the lots | ved in the lease by the Dumbarton Street | Church had, to his knowledge, never been dis- turbed. For fifteen years he had dug graves in the cemetery and ‘hed in all of thet time come across but seven or eight stray bodies. These had been earefuliy taken up and placed in a large brick vault made for that purpose. The lease which some of the Dumbarton Street members say was given without authonity | is mgned by Messrs. John ‘T. Mitchell and | Joseph Simms. on behalf of the trustees, and Rey. J. McK. Riley, the pastor. ‘The quarterly conference had previously authorized the leasing. The consideration which passed was $1, the colored people agreeing in addition to keep the place. which for years had been in a desecrated condition. in proper repair. WHAT THE MERCHANTS say. ‘The reporter for ‘Tue Star yesterday bad brief talks on the subject of provision prices with Merchants Kay & Craig, H. W. Offutt, Lyddane, A. Hanlon, E. M. P. Harris, J. P. | Sullivan and others.’ Asa raie they profess to believe that Georgetown prices are as low us in other parts of Washington. They Believe that as thelr rents aro perhaps ‘a iit lower than those in the eastern section of the city they can afford to keep pace with their eastside competitors. NoTEs. The police alarm and intercommunication system of the seventh precinct became de- ranged yesterday. he discovery was made in good time and no delay in patrol calls re- sulted. The imachine was investigated by Station Clerk Fisher and repairs made. It is working in good order today. Agent Wieson of the Hutaane Society was in Georgetown yesterduy and arrested Joseph R. Rabbitt, a contractor, for eruegy toa mule. Several decrepit animals were found. Mr. James H. Tayler, who has been confined to his home on eet, is out again.

The former is paid $120 month and the laiter get their food and lodgings for their labor. Ai the chamber men there have been several changes during the season, Supt.

The question of the proper movement to- ward the creation of a sinking fund to relieve the debts which now hold in mortgage all the public school houses of white children in this city is not yetsettled. The school board agreed | some weeks ago to ask a smail appropriation by the city council this year with an agreement to double the amount each year until the debt should be paid. Another proposal, which eventuated in an ordinance now on the table of the city council, is to give all the fines and forfeitures in excess of $2,000 imposed by the corporation luws to such a sinking fund. It has been objected that there is something unbecom- ing, if not mean, in using for schools » fand derived from fines. It's a matter of fact all the fines and forfeitures now levied in this city by any officer other than the mayor go to the support of the schools, for since February, 1870, “‘all escheats, confisca- ‘ ions, fines, penalties and forfeitures” have been by law appropriated to a fund called the liter- ary fund, and the code prescribes ‘that the annual income arising therefrom shall be and is hereby dedicated exclusively to the su and maintenance of the public schools of this state,” and in view of the fact that this is Thomas Jefierson’s plan, objections arising from an idea that it ‘is indecorous to use fines for the support of the schools seems D.. C, FRIDAY. idle. Mayor Strauss has pursued the spirit of this law by paving into the city school fund the money derived from the sales of confiscated pistols sold by the police. In view of the fact that when a tine or forfeiture is imposed under tho state law it goes to the support of the schools, it seems to be a proper method of making a similar disposition of portion at least of the fines imposed under the ordinances of the city. ‘THE VIRGINIA UNIVERSITY EXAMINATION. * ‘The university exawination of the fourteen pupils of public and private high schools is still in progress at the Washington school build- ing. ‘This is the first year since the examina- tions were begun here that Washington bo have not been numbered among those who take the examination. This year, however, none of the pupils rider examination are Washing- tonians, all the lists being Virginians, nine {som the public schools and five from St. John's Academy. The examination yesterday was upon literature, geography and history; but today it will include muthematics, geology and chemistry. THE W. AND A. RAILROAD DEPOT. Mesers. M. B. Harlow, 8. G. Brent, J. M. Barrett, A. A. Warficld and C. Du Patron and A. D. Brockett, a citizens’ committee, had an interview yesterday at the Washington and Alexandria depot with Superintendent Brooks of the W. 5. railway on the subject of a d crease of local fare, a better depot at Alexan- dria, &c. The committee represented the facts to the superintendent and he informed them thas the managers have had for some time under consideration plans for a new depot building at Alexandria, and that if they would embody in a letter their wishes as to the rates of fare, he would send the letter to the author!- ties of the road.
