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 ee a i filled. Girls wit Is Greases tooks and pencils fitted to and fro and confiscated every dime the boys brought with them. The paddie 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- warded the gold ring. Miss Thina “got “the “suver Candlestick, “Br. Lichty the silver 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 behalt. 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 delibera- 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 Raflroad. The man enter- ed a box car and proceeded to smoke a rank-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 iy, the simed ‘at object ‘qas wissed: oni 2 ject. w: only the dash board injured. Not Doomed. The construction of the Washington and Weetern 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 !s so scarce. When the money market assumes normal propor- tions and a few legislative changes in the charter are secured the construction will be pushed with unremitting vigor. West € rch Pastor. Next Sunday Rev.

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. At 6 o'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 harness up with the intention of starting at 4:30. However, a delay of half an hour was made, and at 5 the marching column was formed and the advance begun. All hands were in a happy mood, with the comforts of home in view. and as they Passed Col. Mc! n, thelr generous ho: who Was seated on ‘the veranda of his home, three times three hearty cheers re- souns through the grounds lately occu- pled by camp J. H. Griffiths. The young ladies were assembled to bid farewell to their blue-coated friends, and were treated In a manner similar to that Teceived by the colonel. 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 changed to the color of a mouse, but as the night Grew on the journey became pleasant, and, as the moon shown forth brightly, the prog- Fess 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 actel as cook, began the preparation of breakfast. ‘The horses were fed and carefully Kroom- ed before a bit was issued to the men. Breakfast consisted of bologna sadsige, 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 o'clock. The sun burned down upon the hoys and great masses of dust rolled around them, ut the move forward was steady. Ai Oxon run a halt was called, and abéut fifteen minutes allowed for rest. An en- trance to the country store was obtained by means of a side door, and when “For- Ward” 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. Elizabeth's Asylum was Driver Oxley started to turn into the main gate, remarking that he had a few crazy men ‘aboard. But 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- Sho TecePtion was .extended by a farmer as looking after his melon the roadside. ee, After placing the cannon and cafssons in their proper places the men were dismissed by Capt. Forsberg, and sought their pater- nal roofs for a good sleep. Camp, GniMthe was by tar the strictest gathering of militiamen this vear point of military di with scrupulous rigidity, and the battery has recetved innumerable congratulations from army men who inspected their sum- mer home. Guard duty was observed cay and night, and the man on duty did not fake it a point to look sweet and attract- ive, as is often the case. Yet, with all the firmness of military rule, the men had a thoroughly enjovable time. and unanimously pronounce thelr trip the finest they ever took On the last day Col.

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 occupled 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 were put 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 b; Capt. Merrill, the assistant postmaster,” lardly had 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 odds 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 Hank broke his leg while st. pping out of his buggy in front of the building. The ambu- lance was again called, but Mr. Peyton pre- ferred to go to his home in his buggy. zone Interesting Articles From Corea.

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 baptism of the sect ever held in this city and was an interesting ceremony being as nearly as possible @ re- luction in detail of the rite as laid down in_ the Bible. ‘Mrs. Stent walked into the water and, Kneeling, affirmed her faith tn Christ, and in response to the bishop's pry prom- iged 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. The lay ing on of hands was then formed, after which a brief prayer was offered up for the sister and the little group quietly and rev- erently dispersed.

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 armory, where 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 so much consideration. Saturday night a ball was given in honor of the company by the ladies who are stopping at the hotel. ‘ear 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 du: ing their stay. The captain responded in few well-chosen words and said that in al his experience .as a hotel man, he had fever seen a quieter or more gentlemanly 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, iM.

The very object for which these breathing places were lesigned is thwarted by the senseless ukase of the of- ficer in charge. For the real hygienic 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.O. sI3 a. dianapolls a An Appeal to Secretary Carlisle. To the Editor of The Evening Star: 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 so 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 unenervatin Javor exacted. HUMANITY, D. ©. MONDAY, AUGUST 28, 1893. REV. MR. STEELE DEAD. Death of the Wel St. Mark’s at His |-Known ‘Rector of apitol 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.

Thc news of his death will come as a grea shock to the members of his congregaTion 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 ped, however, that he might pu!’ 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 324 degree Mason, a member of Acacia Lodge and was also a’ Knight Temp- lar of No. 2 Commandery. Representatives from these bodies will Garticiprie in. the funeral exercises, the date and srrange- ments for which have not yet been decided upon.
