The present school house is inadequate to the needs of the Tenleytown district. It is only about half large enough and provided with but half the needed number of teachers. Other need:-d improvements wiil be discussed to- night and steps taken to obtain them. The | educational question will receive the most attention. Walting for Street Lines. The people of Harlem, just west of the Aqueduct bridge, and east of the distribut- Ing reservoir are still urging the Commis- | sioners, through communications and per- sonal interviews, to at least lay out the lines of the street extensions that they may | = on with their building.

An Exhibition of Dancing. The pupils of Mrs. W. C. Hinton’s and Miss Clara Stevens’ dancing class last night gave a public exhibition of fancy dancing at Masonic Hall, 32d street.

Lord has ordered a new and larger pump to use in the unload- ing of the sunken stone-laden schooner Ellen Fabin, now at the foot of 32d street, with a rock through her bottom. The canal boats which sunk in the Poto- mac near the mouth of Rock Creek during the severe storm of several weeks ago are still lying where they went down, and in low water seriously affect navigation. Mr. Jas. H. Kuhm is engaged in recon- structing his large stone cooper shop which was burned nearly a month ago. About $2,000 will be spent on the building. ‘There is dissatisfaction expressed here at the inconvenient location of the higher eighth grade class. Though it is one of the largest in the town and attended by pupils from the southernmost section principally, it is located away up near Oak Hill ceme- tery gate. — The Close of the Conclave. At the conclusion of their parade yester- day afternoon, the colored Knights Templar enjoyed a banquet at Irving Hall, D street southeast, after which they adjourned to their asylum, 1520 E street northwest.

Convention Hall last night was filled with the pleasant aroma of the woods and also with some two thousand ladies and gentle- men. It was the first performance of “As You Like It” for the benefit of the Liberty Bell Association, given under the direction of Mr. Charles Hanford, the weil-known actor, and Prof. Cloward, who is building up an enviable reputation as a musical Girector. The big stage last night was a perfect bower of green foliage and plants arranged in an artistic and happy manner. The five acts of Shakespeare's wild woods play, “As You Like It,” was produced with- out curtain or drop, and the sight and smell of the actual plants and trees threw an ad- Gitional charm over one of the most charm- ing plays ever written. Talen as a whole the cast was a strong one and ap- preelated fully the peculiar requirements of the production. Mr. Charles Hanford, as the melancholy Jacques, was a success In every sense of the word, and his excellent rendition of the well-known lines belonging to the character was a marvel of elecution- ary merit. The Orlando of Mr. Creston Clarke was also satisfactory in every point and the favorable estimation in which this young and rising actor has been held was still further accentuated. Mr. Edwin Ferry, of this city, undertook the role of the bat ished duke and was well received. Bertram Temple doubled in the roles of the wrestler and Jacques Du Bois. Collin Kemper, as Touchstone, and James L. Carhart, as Adam, were both excellent, as was Lincoln A. Wagenhals, as Oliver. Robert Smiley, in the role of Slivius, the enamored shepherd, gave a remarkable imitation of Oscar Wilde attitudes, while his melancholy whine was calculated to draw tears from a stone im- age. Miss Eleanor Merron played the spirited Rosalind in a highly creditable manner, while Miss Frances Gaunt, as Celia, and Miss Grace Atwell, as Phoebe, were also ex- cellent. As Audrey, Miss Sally Williams Riegel repeated her former success, An important and pleasing feature of the Performance was the musical program by the Capital Glee Club, under the able lead- ership of Prof. Cloward. The performance will be repeated tonight at 7:30. ae AMUSEMENTS. Herrmann.—The wonderful Herrmann, aided by Mme. Herrmann, will be the at- traction at Albaugh’s Grand Opera House next week. This year Herrmann has an entire new entertainment, and he will pro- duce several startling novelties in the way of illusions of his own invention and_pro- ductio One of the chief illusiors of Herr- mann’s repertoire is his famous sensational illusion, “The Escape From Sing Sing.” It is founded on the recent escape of the two condemned prisoners, Pallister and Roehl, from Sing Sing prison. It is pronounced to be Herrmann’s masterpiece. Another gvod illusion that he will present is entitled “Af- ter the Ball.” It is taken from the jewel scene of “Faust.” A magnificent mirror is Placed upon the stage isolated from all sur- rounding objects, and the audience can see under it, over it and on all sides of it. A lady in full evening costume is discovered standing in front of it arranging her jewels. Without being covered by curtains or any thing else, suddenly at a wave of Herr- mann’s magic wand she vanishes through this solid mirror. This Musion bids fair to create as big a sensation as anything that Herrmann has ever presented. In the course of Herrmann’s spirit seance he will introduce for the first time Madame Blavat sky's mysterious Delphic cabinet. Herr- mann’s well-known tricks of legerdemain comprise this season a number of new ex- periments which have never before been at- tempted, and by long odds the best this master of the slack Art” has ever done. Melodrama at the Bijou.—Next week will bring to Harris’ Bijou Theater the well- known melodramatic stars, Dore Davidson and Ramie Austin. They will appear in two Plays, “By the World Forgotten” and “The Dangers of a Great City.” The popularity of these players is steadily increasing and they stand among the first of the favorites in this line of theatrical entertainment. The scenery will be up to the standard which this organization has always maintained heretofore, the climaxes, which are numer- ous and thrilling, being heightened in their effect by the realism of the stage accesso- ties. The plays and the people who present them have the prestige of hearty public aprroval, and they may be expected to do well. Kernan’s Lyceum Theater—Next week our theater-goers will have a chance to wit- ness what is guaranteed to be the strongest specialty organization on the road—Weber and Field's new show, entitled Russell Bros.’ Comedians. The reputation of its management is high and the combination represents the highest salaried vaudeville aggregation in existence. Among the nota- ble entertainers are the Russell Brothers, John E. Drew, the Tremonts, Alburtus and Bertram, Bessie Gilbert, the Acme Four, Sam Bernard, the Braatz Brothers and Miss Annie Russeil. as The American fce Company's Affaira. The receiver who was appointed in Bangor, Me., for the American Ice Company of this city, as told in yesterday’s Star, is expected to arrive here in the course of a few days. Mr. Edward M. Willis, president of the company, returned last evening from a trip to Philadelphia, made in the interest of his concern. According to Mr. Willis the directors of the company held a meeting here several days ago and concluded to ask the appointment of a receiver. As the cor- poration was chartered in Maine, naturally the application had to be made in that state. Mr. Willis says the troubles of the company began about eighteen months ago, when their big plant near Bangor burned to the ground. He looks on the receivership as a thing made necessary by unfortunate existing circumstances, and {s positive it will be only temporary. The company was threat- ened by several suits, and to prevent the sacrifice of their real estate holdings in Maine and Washington the application for a receiver was made. THE EVENING STAR MEDAL. | Capt. Bell Will Proudly Wear It Dur- ing the Coming Yea: As briefly mentioned in yesterday’s Star, the match for The Evening Star medal was shot off at the Washington Barracks range yesterday afternoon. It was won by Capt. Jas. E. Bell, who piled up a total of 92, the highest score ever made in this match. The meda! is a handsome one, given each year by The Evening Star Newspaper Com- | pany to be shot for by members of the Dis- trict National Guard. It is naturally highly prized, and this match is always sure to bring out a large field of competitors. In previous years the medal has been won by | Capt. Cash, Lieut. Pollard and Corp. Young. ‘The match is shot at four distances, and 1s | open to all commissioned officers and en- | listed men of the guard who have qualified as sharpshooters during the year and who have not hitherto won the trophy. ‘The detailed score of the match is as fol- lows: Evening Star Match—Distances, 200, 300, 500 and 600 yards; five rounds at each dis- tance: Capt.

The Last Week Shows Up With 120 Deaths, “The death rate, which ran so low week before last, swung back to the normal last week,” says the report of Health Officer Hammett for last week. “From 107 the number of deaths arose to 129, This in- crease was mainly due to the increased number of fatal cases of consumption and acute lung diseases. The latter were un- doubtedly to be charged to the unusually cold weather during the last days of Sep- tember, The mortality among children shows a material decline from former re- ports and the annual visitation of summer complaints may now be said to be over, there having been but seven deaths frum Giarrhoeal diseases reported. ‘The same may be said in regard to scarlet fever, there having been but one case of it reported during the month thus far. This is the sea- son of the year when diphtheria is at its worst. There were thirteen cases and nine deaths of this malady reported during the first of the week, while during the last few days the disease has been on the decline and abating rapidly. Malarlal ailments caused but two deaths during the week, and so far as the contagious complaints are concerned as a class they no longer give concern to the faculty.’ ‘The report shows: Number of deaths, 129; white, 54. Death rate per 1,000 per annum: White, 20.0; colored, 31.2; ‘total population,” 258.’ Thirty-eight were under five years of age; 27 were under one year old, and 17 over six- ty years. Twenty-four of the deaths oc. curred in hospitals and public institutioi The deaths by classes were as follows: Zymotic, 2; constitutional, 28; local, 59; de- velopmental, 10; violence, 7. ‘The principal causes of death were: Diph- theria, 9; consumption, 15; diarrhoeal, 7; typhoid fever, malarial fever, 2; pneu- monia, 6; congestion of the lungs, 2; bron- chitis, 1; whooping cough, 1; kidney diseases, 6; meningitis, 7, Births reported: Thirty-three white males, 29 white females, 28 colored males, 30 col- ored females.

A foretaste of what the foot ball season Is likely to be was given yesterday at 7th street ball park, where the Georgetown University team gave that from the Uni- versity of Pennsylvania a hard rub for the victory. Tweive to nothing was the score, in favor of the visitors. Georgetown play- ed a magnificent game, and would doul have scored had not the official watch against them. They were apparently on the point of scoring a touch-down in the first half when time was called. As it was they put the visiting team on the defensive most of the game and kept the ball in thelr territory three-fourths of the time. After Pennsylvania had made four downs without gaining five yards Mahoney, for Georgetown, rushed the ball twenty yards on one spurt and then gained five more by smashing at the center. The good work was kept up until Pennsylvania got the ball for a long punt. Back and forth the pig- a Alumnae of Notre Dame. es ameee The fourth annual banquet of the alumnae of the sehool of Notre Dame was held in the school hall last night, and was a very pleasant reunion of graduates of that in- stitution of learning. During the evening an informal program of music was render- ed by Miss Katie Lackey, Miss Mollie Daley, Miss Agnes Rover, and the Misses Nesbitt and Jordan. The comfort of the guests was looked af- ter by the officers of the society, Miss Katie Lackey, president; Mrs. M. J.'Falvy, vice president; Miss Mary Coyle, treasurer; Miss Ready, secretary; Misses’ Mary Jordan, Agnes Rover, and Sadie Allen, literary com: mittee. Later in the evening the members of the lumnae were called upon by Messrs. R. F. vowing, J. Moran, D. J. Donovan, R. Lan: dale, H. J. Nolte. R. P. Lehman, A. Van Reuth, F. A. Van Reuth, T. A. Gorman and J. Hallinan, a committee of the Young Men’s Catholic Club, and escorted to Gonzaga Hall, where the club dance was being held. ‘They were welcomed at the hall by Mr. M. F. Halloran, and the remainder of the evening was spent in a delightful manner. ieee One Dollar a Fight. There was a “parlor social” given in South Washington last evening which was skin traveled, until Osgood for the visitors managed to creep over the line and scored the first touch-down, from which a goal Was Kicked. Georgetown started rlekt aut | the first touch-dowa,” trom “which a goal was kicked. Georgetown started right out again to retrieve the loss, and had the ball on the five-yard line in’ a few moments. Mahoney did the most of this, by means of a eplendid run of forty yards. Pennsyl- vania got the ball on a fumble, and gained three yards, when time was called. ‘The second half was like the first. After & good deal of see-sawing Pennsylvania forced the ball down into the home team’s ALEXANDRI City Council Meeting. ‘The city council held a regular meeting last night, the attendance in both boards being small. The engineer bill was not re- ported, but Mr. Caton introduced a reso- lution of inquiry as to the cost of paving a large number of streets. An appropriation of $14 was made to pay for the new rolling helves in the corporation clerk's office. It was ordered that the auditor proceed to sell on the 2ist of November next al real estate delinquent for taxes due before June, 1892. The bill granting to the Mount Ver- non Electric Railroad Company additional rights of way over many streets of the city was called up. After amendments provid- ing for the remova! of the track on Frank- lin street and a new route down Fairfax street had been suggested the bill was laid over. The mayor's suggestion for a law compelling tramps to break stones and for the change of the lower story of the may- or’s office into a prison room in connection with the station house was referred. The session was a brief one. Democratic Nominating Convention. At noon yesterday the convention to nominate a candidate for the house of del- egates was, as reported to The Star, called to order by Chairman Barley. The call wi almost the only thing of order in the as- sembly. An early attempt was made by the friends of Mr. Caton to procure an ad- journment, and they allege that they did Procure an adjournment for ten days. The friends of Mr. Bendheim do not admit that an adjournment was agreed to, and they continued the convention, Mr. C. B. Gra- ham in the chair, and nominated Mr. Bend- heim. Mr. Thompson of the county pro- tested against the action, and when the convention adjourned the Alexandria de- mocracy was more divided than ever. Mr. Bendheim holds the fort, but the besiegers are very numerous and are said to out- number the garrison. An Aasez.bly of Priests. The regular council of the clergymen of the Catholic Church of Virginia was held at the pastoral residence of St. Mary’s Church here yesterday. Bishop Van DeViver pre- sided, and there were present Rev. Fathers MeVary, Payne, McCaferry, Kelly, Lynch, Tierney, Wilson, Deneen, Fallon, Lucke, Handley, McCarty, Drake, Cutier and Ken- efic, These came from ail sections of the state. The subjects discussed were ques- tions in pastoral theology, &c. Notes. The Catholic fair for the poor opened at the Lyceum Hall last night, and promises to be a success. « In the corporation court today the case of Roane for the murder of Meade was con- sidered by the grand jury.
