An instance of reckless driving attracted &ttention yesterday on the Conduit road. A number of the members of the Singer Road Club were on their way to the city, when suddenly two buggies dashed along on a mad race. All the bicycle riders es- gaped tr with the exception of Frank fo Martin, who was badly hurt, and his machine was wrecked. The drivers of the Dugsies, who were young men, drove on without stopping to learn if the young man had been injured. As this was not the first instance of the kind, Lieut. Will Hall and two members of the club started in pur- suit of the men. One of the buggies was overtaken at Rockville by the resolute wheelmen, and the driver was found to be Wm. Tormen. A_proper complaint will be lodged with the Maryland authorities, and it is expected that the case will be tried in Rockville. —_———__ BIS GRAY HAIRS ‘Would Indicate a Better Course of Conduct. An arrest was made at the Zoological Park yesterday by Mr. Blackburn, the keeper, which caused a surprise to the many persons who were in the building at the time. The prisoner, an aged man, with gray hair and beard, was behind the crowd near the monkeys’ cage and his ar- Test was the result of his alleged indecent conduct. Henry Stewart was the name he gave. He was identified by Special Officer Kraemer, who remembered having seen him under similar conditions at the museum about three years ago. When the prisoner reached the Police Court this morning Judge Kimball recognized him as the man whom he fined $250 on a similar charge some months ago and the man said he had for- felted collateral on one occasion. Mr. Blackburn stated his complaint and the court heard the denial of the prisoner. Officer Kraemer told of his former experi- ence with Stewart and the court imposed & fine of $100 or ninety days on the farm. ‘He said he would pay the fine. ——>— Masons at Brookiand. Mr. L. Cabell Williamson, Most Worship- ful Grand Master of Masons of the District of Columbia, has granted a dispensation to his brother fellow crafts in Brookland and vicinity to organize a Masonic lodge. Before doing this, however, the grand master vis- ited Brookland and satisfied himself fully as to the needs of the brethren of this com- munity. He expressed himself much pleased with the proposed lodge room in the new town hall and was pleasantly surprised at the rapid growth of this part of the “new Washington.” King David's Lodge, No. 28, was the des- ignation chosen for the new organization, and under the authority of the grand master the members of the ancient brother- hood organized on Saturday evening last by electing the following officers: Thomas G.

In the parade incident to the ceremonies yesterday all of the Catholic organizations of Washington and several from Baltimore and other cities took part. Shortly after 1 o'clock the organizations began to gather at the rendezvous in front of the city hall, and by 2 o'clock, the time appointed for the parade to start, quite a large gather ing had assembled in that vicinity.

After marching around the founda- tion of the proposed edifice the parade was dismissed and the members of the different organizations were lost in the crowd. Throughout the entire route of march the sidewalks were lined with the procession, and on tol Hill the population of that section appeared to have turned out en masse, and the police had their hands full in confining the specta- tors to the sidewalk. The procession was headed by fifteen policemen, mounted, un- der command of Sergt. Flattery. They were foNowed by Chief Marshal Buscher and his staff, after which came the Emmet Guards, fifty strong, under command of Capt. 7 Walsh, and escorted by the Marine Band.

The Cardinal Oftictates. ‘The procession arrived at the church site shortly after 8 o'clock, but it was 4 o'clock before tne ceremonies commenced. At that hour a Jine of earringes drew up in front of the stand, which hud been erected around the stone, ani CerdinaJ Gibbons, escorted by Father O’Brien of St. Peter's Parish, stepped out of the first. In the other carriages were: Puthers Devine of St. Jobn’s Parish, Baltimore, Sullivan of St. Peter's, Waiter of St. Patrick's, Delaney of Holy Name, Williams of St. Matthew's, Fulcher of Immaculate Conception, Doherty of St. Edward's, Baltimore, Mackin of St. Paul’ Gillespie of St. Aloysius, Walsh of Domini- can Parish of St. Dominic's, Scanlan of Trinity Parish, Georgetown, and Donahoe, chancellor of the diocese, and Stephan, in charge of the Catholic Indian bureau. The cardinal, immediately upon his ar- rival, donned ‘his robes, after which, ac- companied by the priests and about twenty acolites, he repaired to the rear of the build- ing, where a cross had been erected over | the’ spot where the altar will stand, and | went through the ceremony of blessing the jaltar. The litany of the saints was then chanted, after which the cardinal, with a trowel, marked the sign of the cross on the four corners of the stone. Still accompanied by the priests and acolites, he then marched around the walls, sprinkling holy water on them and chanting the Miserere. The stone was then placed in position, and a box hermetically Sealed, containing a copy of Sdturday’s Star, a copy of the Catholic News, several United States coins of this year’s issue, and a parchment on which was inscribed the name of the church and the names of the pope, cardinal, President and the District Commissioners, placed | therein. The stone was placed in position at exactly 26 minutes after 4 o'clock. ‘The stone is of Baltimore county marvie and measuresl8 by 30 inches. On the face of it is carved a cross under -vhich appear ‘The Addresses. ed Father Devine delivered a short address, in which he alluded to the efforts of the | congregation of St. Benedict's parish to | raise the necessary amount required to con- | struct the edifice, and spoke of the bless- ing it would prove to them !n having a temple in their midst in which they could worship the Deity according to their man- ner. He compared the proposed edifice to the magnificent temples of like character and called the attention of his listeners to the fact that while not construct2d on such an elaborate scale as those in Europe, God Was equally as much with them here as He was with those who worshiped in the grander temples. After a complimentary allusion to the pastor of the parish, Father Matthews, the speaker concluded ‘his ad- dress by an earnest appeal to all to follow the precepts laid down by our Savior. Cardinal Gibbons followed Father Devine in a short address. He congratulaced the congregation on the success which bad crowned their efforts, and urged upon them the necessity for offering thanks unto God. He alluded to God's omnipresence, end in | this connection made use of several rather striking similes. “You reside in Washing- ton,” said he, “the President of she United States also resides here.

There are two badly wounded patients under treatment at the Emergency Hos- pital, and each represents a case pending in the Police Court. One of the patients is ® colored woman named Johanna Deskin; was employed as cook at Mrs. Durfee’s, 1m0 F street northwest. Employed in the same house was Olmstead Lewis, a young colored man, who, unfortunately, got pos- session of an old muaxet Saturday night and thought he would frighten “Aunt Joe,” as the cook was called. “Don't point that gun at me,” said the latter to the young man, “TI know ‘tain't got no cap on ft, but keep away from mi “But I cam put @ cap on it,” said Olm- stead, who persisted in teaying “Aunt Joe.” He aimed the weapon at her and said. “Look out.” Just then the hammer went down, there was a report, and “Aunt Joe" was satisfied that her time had come. The charge In the weapon had struck hér nose and torn part of it off, while her face was filled with powder and shot. Her mouth was also terribly disfigured. Policeman Willis had her sent to the hospital, and Lewis was locked up. Matt Butler is the other patient. He ts a well-known colored hackman, and is famil- jarly known as “Chief.” He drives for W. ¥. Geyer, and lives in Barnes alley near Mth and B streets southeast tith a culored woman named Mary Whitehan}. A clerk in the Post Office rtmeat named Jo- seph W. Compton, who lives near 34 and B streets northeast, went to the house ahout 10:30 o'clock Saturday night to see the wo- man, as his wife wanted a servant. Butler returned home about that time, and the two men engaged in a ‘ight. It’ is stared that others also figured in the affair, but if they did the police know nothing of it. During the trouble a penkulte was used and Butler received a dangerous wound of the side. His rib was cut, and the blade also penetrated the lung. While the wound is serious, it is thought that Butler will re cover. Policeman Ryan of the fifth pre- einct arrested Compton yesterday morning and he was released on bond. He said to the officers that if he in‘iteted the injury he did it in self defense. In the Police Court today both assault cases were continued to await the result of the injuries inflicted. There was another serious assault case in court. Frank Brown, a young caiored Man, was arrested at an early hour yester- day morning for cutting a companion nam- ed Richard Stewart.

Taking es his text St. Luke, xil:23, “The Ufe is more than meat, and the body ts more than ratment,”.. the minister con- gratulated those who Wgre endeavoring to secure a reduction of the hours of labor, and stated his belief that the movement would be successful. Christ, he said, in- augurated the movement when He spoke the words of the text. The great merit of the movement was the fact that it sought to lift up humanity and in that way would benefit society: The twenty-four hours prop- erly divided gave eight hours each to labor, sleep and recreation, for such a division developed the mind. He hoped the move- ment would include employes in manufac- tories, as well as clerks in mercantile houses, and he hoped {t would not be long until the last establishment would find it too costly to overwork and depress its em- ployes. He was not & believer in anarchy, but he believed most earnestly in equai rights, and he considered that this move- ment had right and justice on its si — A Washington Ma eide. Saturday morning the body uf awell-dressed man was found in Jones’ creek, Baltimore, and in ‘an inside pocket of the coat was found an envelope, addressed to “E. W. Hierling, 1414 E street northwest, Wash- ington, D.C.” The police here were asked for information about the man and fhey learned from Caspar Ronz, a shoemaker, living at the number stated, that Hierling had occupied a room there. The shoe maker told the police that the man had been despondent for some time and several weeks ago he left for Philadelphia, where he was to be treated in a hospital. He had been sick for a long time and it was thought he could not recover. It is sald that what the physicians in Philadelphia told Rim caused him to commit suicide.

The College Foot Ball Team Getting Ready for Business—V Matters of Local Interest. jous Other On Saturday morning last Mr. John Paten, @ resident of Fairfax county and a gentle- Man seventy-two years of age, was killed while attempting to cross the new iron one- span bridge that crosses Pimmet Run, near the High View Hotel at the Virginia end of the chain bridge. The bridge is so narrow as to admit but one vehicle at a time. From the southern end a steep incline leads down to the structure, while from the side nearest the river the ground slopes similar- ly. Mr. Paten, who was in a dog cart with his son, was on the bridge before he noticed the presence of a large double-team country wagon. A turn in the road had prevented the discovery. To pass each other was an impossibility and a collision was the result of the meeting. The horse driven by Mr. Paten was a spirited animal and immediate- ly began to kick. The son of Mr. Paten, who was in the cart with him, immediately got out with the view of catching the horse by the head, but a quick jerk upset the vehicle, threw the old man out through the opening between the railing and to the rocks below, which he struck with such force as to kill him. Mrs. Sarah Mutersbaugh was the driver of the country team. Georgetown College Athletics. On October 10 the foot ball team of the University of Pennsylvania will meet the Georgetown College eleven.

A High Caste Brahmin’s Interesting Talk at the Academy of Muntc. Before an audience which completely filled the Academy of Music last evening Prof. Gyanadra Nath Chakravartl, a Brahmin of the highest caste, talked for about an hour upon the subject of Theosophy. What- ever may have been their belief as to the Subject of his address, the audience was one of the most intelligent and refined ever Bathered here. The lecturer was intro- duced by Mr. George M. Coffin of the Blav- ateky branch of the Theosophical Society of this city, who said that the Theosophi- gal Soclety had been founded in 18% by Mme. Blavatsky and now numbered 250 branches, scattered throughout the world. Its work was not performed by teach- ers, but by the members themselves. The lecturer was attired in a clerical- looking coat, his head crowned by a rich silken turban, which he removed. He is a large man, of a deep olive complexion, with @ kindly expression of countenance and a full musical votce. Speaking English rather fluently, he opened his address by chanting in rather a low tone a verse from the sacred writings of the Hindoos, one of the most ancient of the. sacred books of the world, as he after- ward explained, and carrying the thought of the universal love of the Divine Being toward mankind. Theonophy Explained. Theosophy, he explained, was at once a Teligion and not a religion, because it was the source of all religions. In the of intellect one can exercise reason, but in the sublimer and more confined regions of the spirit intellect cannot solve the prob- lem; the soul of man alone could cognize that which ts infinitely beyond the realm of intellect. While religions had been given the world from time to time, few recog- nized that all religions contain the same truth; hence it was not believed that it is necessary for any person to give up his own religion in order to embrace theosophy. Brahmanism , he sald, stood today as it had always stood—the only non-proselyting religion of the earth. It had never at- tempted to make converts, because it had @ deep conviction that in all religions there could be found the same great truth w! teachers have tried to present acco! to the circumstances surrounding the peo- ple to be reached. The Power of Mesmerism. Referring to the power of mesmerism as an example of the exercise of influence by the mind, and then enlarging upon the universality. Of the brotherhood of human- ity as taught by theosophy, he said it em- braced not only man, but every animal to the remotest protoplasm, all the creation of the same divine essence. Theosophists be- Meved in evolution as put forth by Charles Darwin. But in man there was something not to be found in the animal. It was the Soul of man that made him what he was. As to psychical forces and the exercise & the power of mediumship, he said such ex- berlments were fraught with great dan- ger, as he understood that in America per- sons were born with clairvoyant and cl andient gifts. He condemned the idea of seclusion from the world for moral and re- ligious improvement. While such acts often attain some one object, the spiritual na- ture could only be exalted by striving ist every-day annoyances. ‘he distinguished lecturer was often ap- plauded, and enthusiastically so at the con- clusion of his address. e% ° Se W.
