For Charity’s Sake. ‘The St. Vincent de Paul Society of Trin- ity Church can do much for the poor of the parish this winter, as the fair given the whole of last week under their. auspices was a glittering success. Every night the grounds were crowded, and every night the fair coffers were filled. Girls with bright dresses, books and pencils filtted to and fro and confiscated every dime the boys brought with them. The paddle stand did wonderfully well, the flying horses better, and every booth ‘seemed a magnet that at- | tracted silver only. Saturday night being the last of the fair the prizes offered in the beginning to those who would gather the most for the society were distributed. In the watch contest Miss Mamie O’Don- noghue came out the victor. Miss Har- awarded the gold ring. Miss Thian got the silver candlestick. Mr. Lichty the stlver butter dish, and Mr. Whelan the silk umbrella. The bicycle went to Joseph but his nearest com- petitor was not left out, receiving a silver Watch in appreciation of his fruitful effort in charity's behalf. Get an Award. The commission who met a few days ago in Rosslyn for the purpose of determin- ing what damage had been done the quar- ry property of the Cranford Paving Com- pany by the running of a public road through it have concluded their deltbera- tions, and announced as their decision that the complainants are entitled to the sum of $600. The claims of all other property-hold- ers affected by the road have been denied. Threw a Rock. A colored man, who gave his name as Philip M. Brown, was locked up at the Station yesterday on the charge of having assaulted a conductor on the Georgetown and Tenleytown Railroad. The man enter- ed a box car and proceeded to smoke a tank-smelling cigar. He was told to desist, but paid no attention to the order. The conveyance was crowded, the day warm, the passengers fretful, and all things tend- ed to make the man’s cigar particularly objectionable. Finally the conductor found it necessary to order the smoker off the car. He flatly refused to go, and an eject- ment took place. This caused bad blood to rise in the veins of Brown, and he hurled | an immense rock at the conductor. Luckt- ly, the aimed at object was missed, and only the dash board injured. Not Doomed. The construction of the Washington and Western branch of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad, which terminates at the Aqueduct bridge, has not been doomed, according to @ Baltimore and Ohio official, but merely delayed. The ties, rails, etc. are being taken away from the available lots around the Aqueduct simply because they are need- ed at once on the main ‘ine. It would be unwise in any corporation to begin anew the building of an expensive work at this time, when ready money {3 so scarce.

G., halted In front of their armory, after a long, tiresome march of thirty-four miles over the dusty roads of Prince George county, Md. At6o’clock Saturday morning reveille was sounded and an order read commanding the breaking of camp at 10 a.m. Up to that hour every one was very busy packing up and so forth, Promptly at 10 Capt. Forsberg gave the signal and every tent in camp, with the ex- ception of those used for headquarters, hospital and guard quarters, fell. ‘The men were occupied about two hours in clearing the ground of all baggage. At 3 o'clock they began to ess up with the intention of starting at 4:30. However, @ delay of half an hour was made, and at § the marching column was formed and the advance c All hands were in a happy mood, with Based Co ieee Manteo ae ‘ol.

The sheriff of Charles county acted as guide until the boys met the scout who conducted them to Marshall Hall. The road was hardly reached when the heavy wheels and many horses of the bat- tery started. a dust cloud which increased in volume until the men had changel to the color of a mouse, but as the night drew on the journey became pleasant, and, as the moon shown forth brightly, the prog- Tess was rapid. Pisquataway, Md., was reached about midnight, and’ the command went into bi- vouac until morning. At 6 o'clock Buglar Biondi sounded revellle and Driver Posey, who acted as cook, began the preparation of break?ast. The horses were fed and carefully ;room- ed before a bit was issued to the men. Breakfast consisted of bologna sausige, light bread and government coffee, which was partaken of with a relish. ‘Several horses had to be shod and other busiiess delayed the march until about 10 u'clock. The sun burned down upon the hoys and freat masses of dust rolled around them, ut the move forward was steady. Ac Oxon run a halt was called, and abéut fifteen minutes allowed for rest. An en- Hance to the country store was obtained by means of a side door, and when “For- Wfard” was again given the dealer had hardly enough left to feed a tramp. In the formation of the column the ambulance was in the rear, and as St. Elizaheth's Asylum was passed Driver Oxley started to turn into the main gate, remarking that he had a few crazy men abonrd. Rut he Was induced by the fact that he, himself, would probably be left to the care of a Physician, to change his direction. The boys were warmly received all along the line of march, but perhaps the warm- oot reception was aixtended by ‘a farmer ‘as looking after his melon patch by the roadside. oe After placing the cannon and cafxsons in their proper places the men were dismissed by Capt. Forsberg, and sought thelr pater- nal roofs for a good sleep. Camp Grifiths by far the strictest gathering of militiamen this vear.

The clerical force that occupied the old Ford's Theater building at the time of the accident in June have since then been at work in the Union building, on G street, the lower floors of which are occupied by the city post office. Naturally it does not take much to alarm that crowd of clerks, and on several occasions they have had little scares that reminded them of their horrible experience on that never to be for- gotten day. On Saturday a number of men wi to work to change the location of some of the file cases on the upper floors and while they were engaged upon this the clerks on the third floor felt the floor tremble and vibrate, and this came very near causing a stampede. They were finally quited by Capt. Merri, the assistant postmaster. lardly they returned to work, how- ever, when Benjamin Scott, a porter who lives in Anacostia and works in the build- ing, broke his leg in attempting to move some boxes loaded with and ends which had accumulated about the building. Scott was taken to the hospital and the clerks were again quieted. Shortly after- ward Mr. Peyton of the Metropolitan Bank broke his leg while stepping out of his buggy in front of the building. The ambu- Jance was again called, but Mr. Peyton pre- ferred to go to his home in his buggy. eugene Interesting Articles From Corea. The national museum has recently re- ceived an interesting collection jrom Mr. Augustus Heard, consul at Seoul, Corea. ‘The collection consists of numerous musicai instruments and articles used in native forms of gambling. Gambling is said to be @ prevalent vice among the Coreans, and In the collection, which has been put on exhibi- tion at the museum, the “war game,” the “bone game” and a'native poker deck are the most conspicuous. These were obtained by a missionary familiar with the manners of the country. Among the musical instru- ments is a form of tom-tom, known as a double headed “sogo.” which looks not un- like a small drum with one head of skin a’ one of membrane. It has a handle to which are attached brass knobs, and Is capable of producing four distinct ‘sounds and. three more by combination. The other musical jn. struments in the collection are a chime of bells, a bamboo pipe and a native flute. gi settee Loyal Women. A special meeting of the Legion of Loyal Women has been called to meet with Miss Curry, 1510 9th street northwest, this even- ing at 7:30 o'clock, to complete arrange- ments for the excursion to Chicago and In- dianapolis. An unusually interesting meet- ing 1s anticipated, as a number who have returned from the world’s falr will be pres- ent and take part anche Roll of Honor. In the Columbian Bulletin of American Business Colleges for August the active ex- hibitors are illustrated in a group in the form of an equilateral triangle, the picture of Mrs. Sara A. Spencer of the Spencerian College of Washington forming the apex of the triangle as the only lady president. Twenty-five students of the active ex- hibit are on the roll of honor and have re- ceived Columbian medals. They represent eighteen cities. Miss Flora B. Snyder rep- resents Washington. D. C., and is men- tioned with special honor. a It may not be generally known, but there {s a small colony of Dunkards in this city, members of that curious religious sect that has its headquarters in central Pennsyl- vania. They are not very numerous, but yesterday there was a baptism into the nd, the candidate being a woman of near- ly four-score years. Service was held in the morning at the residence of the pastor, Rev. Bm M. Lyon, 315 oth street northeast. ere were about twenty people present, and Bishop Stoner of Maryland presided and preached the sermon. Afterward the party all adjourned to the navy yard bridge,where the new candidate, Mrs. Jane Stent, was baptized by immersion. Tt was the first bapiism of the sect ever held in this city and was an interesting ceremony being as nearly as possible a re- roduction in detail of the rite as laid down in the Bible. Mra. Stent walked into the water and, kneeling, affirmed her faith in Christ, and in response to the bishop's questions prom- tged to live faithfully unto death. She was then baptized in the name of the Father, Son, and the Holy Ghost, her face being immersed at the mention of each. ing on of hands was then x which a brief prayer was offered up for the sister and the little group quietly and rev- erently dispersed. HOME AGAIN After a Week of Pleasure on the Lower Potomac. The Columbian Zouaves, company B, fourth battalion, District Columbia Nation- al Guards, who have been in camp at Ridge, St. Mary's county, Md., returned home last night at 10:30 p. m., on the Ar- rowsmith. After marching to the equipments and uniforms were left, the company was dismissed, and the men, brown from their exposure to the sun and weather, went to their homes to enjoy a much-needed rest. The last day in camp was full of excite- ment; packing knapsacks, trunks, &c., and bidding goodbye to the numerous country folks who had treated the company with 80 much consideration. Saturday night a ‘ball was given in honar of the company by the ladies who are stopping at the hotel. Near the closing ‘hour, Capt. Simpson arose, and in the name ‘of the company thanked the genial proprietor, Capt. Ra- leigh, for his Kindness to the company cur- ing their stay. The captain responded in a few well-chosen words and said that in all his experience as a hotel man, he had Rever seen a quieter or more gentlemanly armory, where Ly. “After the ball was over" the men sought their tents and sleep, to be awakened at 3 o'clock the next morning to catch the steamer for home. The trip up the river was not a novel one to many of the boys, and of course was de- vold of interest. J. M. W. ee NEGRO DEMOCRATS. State Committees Appointed and an Adjournment Effected.

To the Fulitor of The Evening Star: What Mr. Botsford sald in Saturday's ts- sue of your paper about the lack of seats in Mcunt Vernon Square will epply with equal force to the Capitol grounds, where there are absolutely no settees. ‘This sort of an ultra-conservative policy argues poor- ly for the official who 1s reaponsibie for this state of things. The very object for which these breathing places were Jlesigned is thwarted by the senseless ukase of the of- ficer in charge. For the real nyglenic good that 1s done to surrounding humanity these open spaces might as well not exist. Let us have more seats in the parks, aot only the Capitol grounds and Mount Vernon Square, but all the other open spaces in the city. EA. a An Appeal to Secretary Carlisle. To the Ealtor of The Evening Stai Will not the newspapers of Washington call the attention of the Secretary of the Treasury to the fact that it is positively inhuman for his subordinates to cause the overworked and miserably compensated employes of the bureau of engraviag and printing at this frightfully hot reason of the year to labor over time, breaking down their health, especially of ‘the unfortunate women, who are compelled to toll xo hard every day for existence? These suffering employes appeal to Mr, Carlisle to remedy this state of things and increase the force in the bureau, if the necessity exists for extra work. The government of the United States ought to be ashamed of itself—first for expecting these people to work over time in such a distressingly oppressive time of year, and second for allowing but the miserly sum of 15 cents per hour for the taxing and unenervatinx Jaoor exacted. HUMANITY, REV. MR. STEELE DEAD. Death of the Well-Known Rector of St. Mark’s at His Home om Capitol Hill THE PROTES- tant EpiscopalChurch of this city has lost one of its best known and most pop- alar rectors in the death this morning of Rev. A. Floridur Steele, rector of St. Mark's Church, cor ner 34 and A street: southeast. Mr. Steele had been connected with St \ Mark’s Church for about — twenty-thre« years past and had always taken an ac- tive part in all religious movements. Th« news of his death will come as a@ grea shock to the members of his congrega‘ion and to the clergy of the city-generally. He had been sick for about ten days of ty- phoid-malaria and for several days it was Tealized that his condition was critical. It was hoped, however, that he might pul through, but this morning at 10:15 o'clock the end came. He leaves a widow and tw: sons. Rev. Mr. Steele was the son of the In* Rev. Ashbel Steele, who was for many years prominently identified with District affairs. He was born in Pensacola, Fla., fifty-seven years ago, but received his edu- cation at Columbian University and at the ‘Theological Seminary at Alexandria. He was a member of the Alumni Association of the Columbian University and for six- teen years had been the chaplain of St. Elizabeth's Hospital. Mr. Steele was a prominent 32d degree Mason, a member of Acacia Lodge and was also a’ Knight Temp- iar of No. 2 Commandery. Representatives from these bodies will funeral exercises, the date and srrange- ments for which have not yet been decided upon. Mr. Steele died at his late residence, 600 A street northeast. rticipate in the NEW SUBSCRIPTIONS, Those Who Are Helping the Centen- nial Celebration Fund.
