COLLEGE COMMENCEMENT Exercises to Be Held Tomorrow in Gaston Hall—Trips of Bicycle Riders—The Pro- Posed New Boulevard—Deposits of Granite and Minerals Found—Notes of Interest. ——__ Rev. Dr. D. P. Seaton, pastor of Ebonezer A.M. E. Church, preached « special sermon last night to young colored men. An unusu- ally large attendance was present. Dr. Seaton took for his text Kings, 11:2, “Show Thyself a Man.” He made a passionate appeal for greater unity and claanishness of the colored race. It Was a stirring sermon, and was greeted with enthusiastic approval. He said: “Our fathers strove through the shadows of supersti- tion with a courage which would not down. They bad not the mental and the finaneial foree which characterized the Caucasian race, but this was because they had been robbed of the advantages which belonged to them as men. Wherever an opportunity had been presented their race had embraced it with an eagerness and an adaptability which proved them to be the natural inferiors of none. They would climb to the summit of power: and in- fluence despite all obstacles. Black men had the capacity to discharge the duties of life. The white man’s conceit that he monopolized talents and virtues and that the colored man was only a side Sane of humanity had long ago been exploded. Negro genius was written on battlefields, in music, in the pulpit and the council chamber. The greatness of the sons of Ham was testified by the monuments of antiquity. Our fathers showed themselves to have been men when bloodhounds and auction blocks were fashion- able, when they were forced to live in swamps, nd when an attempt to read meant nine and | thirty lashes. He advised the young colored |men to stand together, as the Irish and Germans bad done; to open stores and patronize them, to’ employ colored help, to stop squandering their week's earnings on Sunday buggy rides and exchrsions. Seventy per cent of convicted law breakers of the Dis- trict were colored people. He favored the organization of a moral improvement society With branches in every part of the District. They must build houses, get out of the alleys and live on the bigh streets. The service was concluded with prayer by Rev. Frederick A. Seaton, pastor of Mount Sinai A. M. E. Church, and son of Rev. Dr. D. P. Seaton. Special music was rendered by the ‘choir, under the direction of Prof. John Butler. GEORGETOWN COLLEGE COMMENCEMENT. ‘The seventy-sixth annual commencement of the collegiate department of the Georgetown University takes place tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock. There will be music by Donch’s Orchestra on the lawn prior to the commence- ment exercises, which will be held in Gaston Hall. The program is as follows: Class poem, P. J. Conlon, New York; bachelor’s ora- . “College Men in Politics.” F. P. Sheehy, District of Columbin: master's oration, “The Ethics of the Hawaiian Question,” E. J. Ma- honey. Mass. ; conferring of degrees; valedic- tory, Francis D. Mullan, California. One stu: ill receive the degree of Ph. B., eight will receive the degree of masters of arts and sixteen bachelors of arts. After the commencement the faculty will make a retreat to College Villa, Bazzard’s Bay. The preparatory department will give its annual exhibition this evening. CYCLISTS VISIT THE MARLBORO’ Jatt. ‘The regular Sunday run of the Georgetown Cyclists was yesterday made to Marlboro’, and there che better part of the day was spent in eating, resting and satisfying a morbid curi- osity, many having previously expressed a do- sire to see Barber and Pinkney, the condemned murderers of Bowie, who on ‘next Friday will y the penalty of their crime. Tike cyclists “hed mo trouble in seeing. the men, they being confined in a room overlooking one of the town’s thoroughfares. Both Pink- ney and Barber were in excellent spirits, and from their manacled position talked ' and laughed with the cyclists as if their day earth were limitless. They ne foot from the barred windows whileconversing. Behind, but not in their view, was the already constructed scaffold on which they will breathe their last. The cyclists report the road from Washington to Mariboro’ in a deplorable condition for wheelmen, sand in many places being «ix incbes thick and of a yielding nature. Capt. Cook commanded the cyclists on the trip. Next Monday evening, at the residence of Mr. Gude, 1224 F street, the semi-annual election of offi cers will take place. A NIGHT TRIP TO FREDERICK, On Saturday night at 11 o'clock Dr. Wilmer Parker and Messrs. Lloyd Tucker and Edward Libbey started on their wheels to Frederick city, at which place they arrived on Sunday about 6a.m. Wheeling over a comparatively unknown road with only the light of dim lan- terns to show them the walk proved somewhat of anovelty. Breakfast and dinner were taken at the City Hotel. GRASSLANDS THE HOSPITAELE HOME. Engineer H. B. Looker, who made the sur- veys for the grand boulevard that is to run along the line of Foundry branch from the canal road to the pro} Methodist Uni- versity, has requested Commissioners to designate the thoroughfare “Grassiand avenue,” thus retaining the old name of that part of the territory traversed, formerly owned by ex- Secretary Whitney, and at a country resi- dence so many of ‘the of Washington were royally cotrtainol THE POLICE ARE ACTIVE, The police are making it uncomfortable for violators of buildingand police regulations, In past years many privileges were allowed mer- chants and builders, but now that Georgetown has become a city, city ways must prevail. Officers were on the slert yesterday for fast driving. Many people were cautioned and compelled to lower their speed, but no arrests were made. George Washington, twenty-four years old, was brought in Saturday night on ‘the charge of throwing stones. Officer Jett was the complainant and Officer Conlon took the case. Hannah Day, twenty-two years old, was taken into custody yesterday by Officer Conlon ‘on the charge of drunkenness. A VEIN OF GRANITE FOUND, Granite said to be of the finest quality and color and regarded as superior to that which comes from Maine has been found on the Vir- ginia side at a depth of but twelve feet. Large antities of quartz pyrites were also found. @ discovery was made by Con- tractor Darby and his men, who are en- gaged in excavating for the foundation of the power house to be used in connection with the new water works at Fort Myer. The franite ia exceodingly plentiful and may easily obtained. On this side of the Poto- mac to the end of Southworth College granite was also found « short time ago while boring an artesian well. The man who controlled the work also discovered some good specimens of silver ore and pronounced it capable of development, but nothing was ever done. The driller was a man who had bad con- siderable experience in opening shafts, &c., in ing districts. mining ‘THEY KXEW THEIR CATECHICM. For over two months there will be no cate- chism lessons recited at Trinity Catholic Sun- day school, yesterday closing the scholastic year. The custom of rewarding those who have excelled in the work allotted them was again observed, 409 pupils out of 650 receiving dooks.dgplomas and other premiums.
