Gossip About the Change in the Canal Management. AN ODD FELLOWS’ BUILDING. ease te EL Efforts Being Made to Erect One—The Body of Fleming Mickens Found Floating in the River —The West Street Church's Va- cant Pulpit—Notes. The resignation of Mr. Henry C. Winship as the general manager of the Chesapeake and Ohio canal, the acceptance of it by the board of trustees and the appointment of Superintendent and Engineer George 8. Nich- olson to the vacancy are the chief topics of con- versation in business circles. . The reason for the action assigned by Mr. Winship is the ac- | cepted one. His private business interests are known to be immense and an hour of applice- tion to them is vastly more productive of finan- cial return than if applica to the management of the canal, Mr. Nicholson and Mr. Winship are such warm personal friends and so sympa- thetic of the wishes of each other that the Policy pursued by Mr. Winship will be con- tinued by his successor. It is not probable that any changes in the personnel of the canal will be made. Those now filling positions have been chosen out of regard for their proved abilities. No decapitations are looked for. FOUND FLOATING IN THE RIVER. The body cf Fleming Mickens, colored, who has been missing from his home, in Essex alley, since last Monday afternoon, was found float- ing in the river at 4 p.m. yesterday. The find was made by Robert Golden, a colored laborer. The body was found near Lee's whart, at 324 and Potomac streots, It was removed to the seventh precinct station in the patrol, and last evening the coroner rendered a verdict of acci- dental drowning. Mickens was fifty years old. He leaves s widow and family. Thero has been considerable talk of foul play, but no marks were found on the body to justify this sus- picion. The body was in @ fair state of Preservation. SHE ASSAULTED AN OFFICER. ‘Miss Mary Peterson was in the toils of the Police last night, She was arrested recently by Officer C. H. Bradly on a charge of dis- orderly conduct. In making the arrest he was assaulted by the young lady. The charge of disorder was dismissed in court and yosterday she was rearrested on the charge of assaulting an officer. Officer Bradley, it is enid, received sevoral ugly facial blemishes in the fray and had his watch chain broken and his timepiece damaged. AN ODD FELLOWS’ BUILDING. At the recent meeting of the several lodges of the G. U. 0. of Odd Fellows the action of the hall committee appointed to raise funds with which to erect @ building suitable for lodge purposes was unanimouly indorsed and judging from the lively discussion that fol- lowed on the tof the mass meeting to be held next Monday evening at Mt. Zion M. E. Church it will be one of the most largely at- tended and financially successful meetings that have ever taken place in Georgetown. Tho lodges {n competing for the prize of- fered to the organization bringing the largest eum to the treasurer of the building committee are still keeping up a paying rivalry and promise to contribute much to th the undertaking. The Ladies’ Auxiliary Society has made known ite intention of giving €200 to the project. ‘THE WEATHER IN MAY. Mr. M. F. Burrows, the local observer who holds forth at Brace’s pharmacy, tells the fol- lowing story for the month of May: Mean tem- perature, 64°; maximum temperature, 92°, 0o- curred on 23d; minimum temperature, 39°, oc- curred on 8th; total rairfall, 6.23 inches, Rain fell on 18 days. DEATH OF A WELL-KNOWN LADY. Intelligence reached Georgetown yesterday of the death in New York of Mra, Lucy C. Goodnow, mother of Mrs. V. Pulizzi of 2803 N street and wife of Capt. Ira Goodnow, a former Goorkeepor of the House of Representatives, Deceased will be interred at Brooklyn. A BRILLIANT GEORGETOWN STUDENT. Mr. P. H. O'Donnell of the post graduate class of Georgetown College has returned from Boston, Mass., after having brought honor upon, both himself and alma mater by his lecture on “Ireland in Art and Literature,” delivered before the Atheneum of Boston College inst Sunday afternoon. Mr. O'Donnell has bad much experience in addressing assemblies, every election time finding him doing excellent work on the stump of Indiana. After the eulogism of Ireland had been delivered Mr. O'Donnell was banqueted by his hosts, the students and faculty of the college. THE VACANT PULFIT. Next Sunday the pulpit of the West Street Presbyterian Church will be occupied by Rev. W. C. Alexander of New Jersey, who has been in Weishington with the assemblymen. On next Wednesday there comes off the congrega- tional meeting, at which it is probable a perma- nent pastor for the church will be selected from _ three or four eligibles now under considera- jon. A HERRING HILL Row. Cries of “Stop thief!” “Catch him!” and similar utterances caught the ear last evening of Officer Upperman. He started in pursuit of the alleged wrongdoer. The gap between them lengthened. ‘The leader finally disa Tho row was of Herring Hill origin. Sallio Mayne closed the eye of her rival, Julia Shay, and the young man who was keeping com; with the last named gitl struck Mise Mayne and ran, Hence the trouble. A FAR-REACHING SPRAY. The spray of the fountain at the intersection of Pennsylvania avenue and M street reaches ‘too far into the street when the wind blows. A stiff wind from the west will blow it into the cable cars and an easterly blow will cause it to desprinkle wayfarers along the avenue. The little reservation around the fount, the only reservation in Georgetown, is looking extremely retty in its dress of newiy set-out plants and lowers. It is a very small triangle, but George- town people fondly refer to it as our Central Park. THE CONGRESS STREET LIBRARY FUND. Tonight Linthicum Hall will be filled by the friends of the Congress Street M. P. Church, whose active representatives give an entertain- ment for the increase of the library fund.
