Tm the Catholic Church today throughout the World, from early mass until late in the even- ing, the sacrament will be exposed and the day will be one of devotion. This devotion is of very ancient date, but it came into more general favor about the middle of the seventeenth century through the instru- mentality of a visitation nan, the blind Mar- garet Mary Alacoque. She became the foun- dress of the devotion to the Sacred Heart as Row practiced in the Catholic Church. ‘The alters of the local churches are brilliant with lights and sweet with the perfume of flowers, those of St. Matthew's, St. Patrick's, St. Paul's. the Church of the Dominican Fathers and the chapels of Goorgetown College and the Catholic University being particularly Boticeable. — ‘The Anacostia Sewer.

The regular month!y meeting of the East | Washington Citizens’ Association was held last | evening at Baum’s Hall and several important matters were given shape. ‘The most impor- | in referring to the committee on legislation the | matter of preparing a bill looking to the re- moval of the correctional institutions from East Washington. The matter was called up by Mr. M. I. Weller, who said the time was ripe for such a thing. East Washington bad been burdened long enough. and unless something was done another attempt might be made to locate the hospital for contagious diseases in that section. President Babson, speaking for the executive committee. said he believed ali danger in that quarter had passed. although it was well to keep a watchful eye on the matter. Mr. A. F. Sperry said he was heartily in favor of Mr. Weller's resolution, but thought it was a little premature. Before’ bill was prepared there should be a committee appointed to seareh the records and prepare an argument in favor of the removal of the institutions. In reply Mr. Weller said that while the rea- sons advanced by Mr. Sperry were good and substantial, he was auxious to get the ball roll- ing, and he believed if the association would direct the committee on legislation to take im- mediate steps in the matter it would be weil. ly he did not believe that anything could be accomplished at once. Large appro- priations would be necessary to accomplish the desired result, aud it was to be expected that the next Congress was going to be liberal in its appropriations. It would be time enough after mouey was appropriated to talk about a place to put them. He had talked somewhat ‘about the matter to prominent citizens. Some of them favored 2 site in the neighborhood of the reform school, while others thought it would be better to follow the plan adopted in New York and Boston and place the institutions on an island, where they would not be a menace to the city. ' The flats would make & capital place them, he thought. THE BOSTON CONTAGIOUS DISEASE HOSPITAL. President Babson stated, in connection with the removal of the correctional institutions, that during the discussion on the contagious disease hospital it was urged by those who fav the location of the hos- ital within the city imits that in ton, the contagious hospital was located in a thickly settled portion of the city. within a stone’s throw of a large school house. He had investigated the subject through a friend of his in Boston,and several days ago received a letter in which it was stated that such was not the case. He read the letter. which is as follows: “I have made some inquiries in to the matter of the contagious hospital, about which we had some little conversation when I was in Washington recently, and I find that the city has a fumigating ward and hospital for con- diseases on Swett street, ost on the border line of the South bay and on the edge Dorchester region. health department informed me that this was for use during epidemics, but that they used the fumigating ward for disinfecting pur- poses almost every day. This locality is not thickly settled, and so far as I have been able to ascertain there are no public school build- ings anywhere near, as the land is moetiy given over to wharves, coal yards, de. “The great talk which was made some time ago, and which I mentioned to you, was in re- gard to hospital which they proposed putting up in one of the vacant squares owned by the city and right in the heart of s populous dis- triet, but the opposition was so great that the was not carried out. think that you are perfectly safe in saying the statement as to the location and con- stant use of a hospital for contagious diseases isa mistake, unless this Dorchester ward and hospital is ‘the one referred to, and if it is the one referred to in the statement made by some one in Washington. there is no school house > | near it and the locality is not thickly populated. “I hope this information will be of some use to you. Iwas not able to get ho.d of the paper OF papery which hed #o much of the discussion Mr. Weller, returning to the original propo- sition, said it might be well to have the <p mittee on legislation to prepare drafts of bi for the reclamation of the Fastern branch flate and the removal of ashes by the government. He put his remarks in the form of a motion and the same was unani carried. The meet- ing then adjourned. Union Veterans’ Union Encampment. A general order has been issued by Gen. Yoder, commander of the Union Veterans’ Union, announcing that the eighth annual en- campment of the Union Veterans’ Union will be held in Boston, Mass., on the 16th, 17th and 18th of August next.

Vagrancy was the charge against a young col- ored man named James Warden who was ar- raigned in Judge Kimball's court this morning, and the prisoner plead guilty. “This man is an habitual drunkard,” said the officer. “He does nothing but hang about bar rooms. He never does any work.’ “Thirty days.” ‘The suspicious character clause of the va- grancy act was charged to have been-violated by John White.

Yesterday afternoon in the Police Court Judge Miller rendered a decision in the liquor case of Patrick J. McDonough, against whom there was acharge of kecfing an unlicensed bar. The prosecution was bronght under the new law and charged the sale of liquor in quantities less than five gallons to be drunk on the premises. McDonough had a wholesale license under the old act, and that license per- mitted the sale of liquor in quantities less than five gallons. 7 Lawyer Shillington presented the defendant's side of the case, while Mr. Pugh was’ in court as the prosecuting officer. There was no dispute as to the facts, and the judge in disposing of the case followed the line of the decision of the Court of Appeals in the Busch case, in which decision Chief Justice Alvey diesented. Under the opinion of that court, however, Judge Miler could de nothing but dismiss the case, and thus permit holders of old wholesale licenses to conduct business the same as those now hoiding retail licenses under either the old or the new law. ee ‘Through the Green Fields to Bay Ridge.

NattoxaL Tuxaten.—The comedy stock company at the New National Theater chauged the bill last night to “Caste.” The play is one which excites mterest and commands admira- tion, but its demands upon the sympathies and emotions of an audience are rather more vig- orous than the traditions concerning warm- weathe~ entertainments would seem to warrant. It served, however, to reveal new points of merit in an organization which has already showed vo much capability. Not only has the Rrace of pure comedy and the flippancy of farce been successfully portrayed by this com: ny, but in “Caste” the deeper: emotions are interpreted with a delicacy and skill that renew the good impressions already made.
