Cardinal Gibbons will officiate. The sermon will be delivered by Rev. Mer. Seton of St. Joseph's Church, Jersey City. ‘The psalms, harmonized, will be rendered by a choir composed of the clergy. It is intended to build only a portion of the new ALONG THE WHARVES. The week has been free of sensational events. The tides and the Mattano con- tinue to go on. The need of a fire boat is generally ac- knowledged along the river front. The Dis- trict needs a new police boat, and she might also be a fire boat. The Joe Black- burn does not fully meet the demands made upon her, and the absolute necessity of a fresh boat is only the question of a little time. The shipping of Washington has no Protection from fire. When a bout begins to blaze she is doomed. If she is tethered at the dock, she will at once be cut loose in order to save the surrounding property. Then a fire boat could be of service over a wide range of the city; it could play mighty streams of water on any object within four or five squares of the river. The steamer Mattano is running now un- der the management of George R. Sheriff and G. T. Jones. She is doing a good busi- ness. The River View steamer Samuel J. Pentz is at Baltimore undergoing sub- stantial repair. She will be much improved in speed, and the tussels for supremacy be- tween the River Queen, the Macalester and the Pentz will be resumed next season. The Mount Vernon travel is slim. Yester- day was the best day of the week, when the passenger list footed up about 150. Officer Frank Hughes of the fourth pre- cinct, formerly on duty with the harbor force, was on guard yesterday at the Mar- shall Hall and Mount Vernon dock. Capt. Chap Posey has returned from the east and was at the front this morning. Engineer Lillie Moore is in Baltimore. Engineer Davis of the Joe is on the high road to recovery. He was badly scalded last month. Superintendent Callahan of the Norfolk and Washington Steamship Company prom- ises a new boat for next season. She will | be as fine as either the Washington or the Norfolk, and will be several tons larger. She will have one hundred state rooms and increased freight capacity. The Cooney is discharging at Stevenson's wharf. It is said that the steamboat George Law will leave for the south within a few days, to enter commission. The Blackburn has had new pumps and steam heater put in, The Kanawha lies idle and unclaimed by her owne-s. ‘The steam dredge is making the second cut in the channel. The Buena Vista steamer is laid up for the winter at Alexandria. James Neal of the harbor force, who was seriously injured in the line of duty during the last storm, is slowly improving. relieved Capt. Tulle. The River Queen is laid up for the season at the O street wharf. Sheriff's wharf has been repaired. Extensive improvements have been made to the Eastern branch houses of the Great Falls Ice Company. The ice trade is slack. Oysters have been discouraged by the warm weather. Reuben H. Plass, cousin to Hermann Piass, owner of the late W. W. Coit, was at the wate> front this morning with a mis- sion. What it was he did not say. The AMUSEMENTS. Albaugh’s.—On Monday evening Mr. 8. Willard, the English actor, begins his en- agement of one week at Albaugh’s. The: repertoire will be as follows: Monday and Tuesday evenings, “The Professor's Love Story;” Wednesday and Thursday evenings, “John Needham’s Double;” Friday evening, “The Middieman;” Saturday matinee, “The Professor's Love Story:” Saturday evening, “A Fool's Paradise.” In the drama of “The Middleman.” Mr. Willard’s presentment of the gaunt, attenuated figure of Cyrus Blen- karn—holloweyed, half frantic, hysterical with grief and joy—is the complete incarna- tion of a dramatic frenzy; and this being sympathetic and moving to goodness and not to evil, captures the heart. It is a mag- nificent exhibition not alone of the physical force that sometimes is so essential in acting, but of that fervor of the soul without which acting is a mockery. The skill with which Willard reserves his power, so that the im- personation might gradually increase in strength, fs one of the best merits of his art. His representation of Cyrus Blenkarn stamps him as one of the best actors of the age. Mr. Willard’s company is headed by charming Miss Marie Burroughs, and in- cludes Misses Nannie Craddoch, Emma Riv- ers,Ethel Douglas, Keith Wakeman, Messrs. Harry Cane, Fred Tyler, Harry Holliday, H. Barfoot, Percy Winter, Hugh Harting, Royce Carleton,&c. The engagement prom- ises to be a most successful one, judging from the demand for seats in advance. New National Theater._DeWolf Hopper and his excellent comic opera company will present, at the New National Theater, next week, his latest success, “‘Panjandrum. Academy of Music.—A. Y. Pearson's scen- ic masterpiece, “The Land of the Midnight Sun,” will be the attraction at the Academy of Music next week. Harris’ Bijou Theater.—‘‘True Irish Hearts,” a play that has already secured the stamp of popular approval, will be pre- sented at Harris’ Bijou Theater next Mon- day night for a week's engagement. Th2 company has not only a strong dramatic cast, but and abundance of talent for the introduction of bright songs and clever dances. The kitchen party introduces an array of sprightly wit, melody and grace- ful agility that causes it to be agreeably remembered by all who see it. ‘The scenery is particularly elaborate, representing spots in Ireland that are famous for their beauty.

COM- PLETE AND PERMANENT CURE IN TWO MONTHS, ‘The first of October my daughter was taken with ‘Typhoid and Malaria. While sick there came little blisters in the bends of the arms, which seemed to fill with water and itch. The doctor sald when she got well these would leave, but they grew worse all the time, until from her neck down to her feet her body was entirely broken out in one mass of sores. She could not sleep, but would walk the floor all nig it crying, and said she would rather die than live, suffering like this.

A new surface has been put upon the walls, and the roof has been repaired. Altogether the old place ts so changed that many sight- seers are daily attracted thither, There are 125 tanks, which can be sup- plied with salt or fresh water, and particu- lar attention has been paid to the arrange- ments for lighting, heating and ventilating. Near the center of the building is an im- mense tank 40 feet in diameter and 7 feet deep. The bottom is below the floor level, so that one may easily see into it by lean- ing on a bluestone coping about 3 1-2 feet above the floor. The outside of this cir- cular tank is of dark red tiles, and the in- side is lined with white tiles. It is intended for large fish, and is itself @ striking ex- ample of the art of the MasoM. Around it in a half circle are similarly constructed tanks, with ample spaces between them. These, however, are oblong, with rounded corners, and slightly smaller, being 30 feet long by 16 wide. They will contain sea lions, seals, sharks, turtles, sturgeons, etc. The material for the floor has not been de- cided upon, though several designs have been made. It will, doubtless, be a mosaic pattern in tiles. The heating arrangements are unique, there being radiators on the floor and near the celling, so that coid air will not descend upon the water and chill it. Around the sides of the walls upright tanks have been built of bricks. The con- tract for ning them with white tiles will be let next week. Large plates of glass an inch thick were made in England during the summer, and are to be put in tron in front of the tanks within a few ja These plates are very clear, the specications requiring the possibility of reading print through a thickness of twenty plates. The skylights above will enable the spectator to see into every corner of the tanks. front is a space for colored illustrations on glass of the various species it contains, church at present, but the completed struc- ture will be cruciform. The transepts and | head of the cross wiil be constructed, and | the lower portion of the cross, which will! form the nave, at a later day. It is intended | to face the entire church with marble—the exterior and the intertor—but at present only the brick walls will be built and the | marbie added when the nave and dome are erected. A high dome, sixty feet in diameter, will cover the crossing of the nave and tran-| septs. The dome will be supported by four sets of large iron columns, which are now | to be erected on each of the four plers. There will also be erected in the future two chapels opening into the nave and transepts | and two opening into the head of the cross and the transepis. The dimensions of the ground plan of the transepts now to be built are 120 by 60 feet, | = the head of the cross will be 20 by 6 ‘The foundation walls are entirely of | brick. and are of the most solid and sub- stantial character. The fron columns which | will support the dome—eight in number— will be seventy and more feet high, and will! be riveted together on the ground. The use of these iron columns instead of masonry Plers for the support of a dome is unusual. When the dome is built It will be held up by a network of steel arches and supports. ‘The portion of the church now being erected will seat many more people than the old church. i with the common and scientific names. Should a specimen die or have to be change to another tank, it will be necessary only to substitute another illustration. The north side of the building will be devoted to fresh water fish, and the south to salt water species. But the water pipes are so contrived that this plan need not always be adhered to. The sea water will be drawn from the bay, and the fresh water from the city mains. sed througa filters pressure,and delivered into reservoirs which are built high enough to enable the water to have a moderate fall. This will afford | a continuous supply to the tanks contain- ing such fish as trout. Two of the filters are of bronze and two of steel, the former for salt, the latter for fresh water. They are already in place, as is also the en gine. A test has proven them to be sat factory in every respect. Fine white sand will be used in the fillers, which have a daily capacity of about 400,900 gallons. The construction of small tanks in the gallery which has been built around the valls remains to be done. Contracts for them will soon be let, but the work on them will be small compared with that al- ready done. They will be used for keeping crustacea, mollusks, starfish and the like.

Prof. Ewell’s Lectures.—Last night Prof. J. L. Ewell delivered the second of his se- ries of illustrated lectures at the First Bap- tist Church, and was listened to by a good audience. Mr. Ewell js an attractive speaker, and he treated his subject from the standpoint of personal observation. He had traveled all over the ground of which he spoke last night—his subject being “Jerusalem and Its Neighborhood”—and he made his lecture of more than ordinary in- terest. The stereopticon views presented were attractive. Tonight Prof. Ewell de- livers the last lecture in his course, his subject being “Greece.” + The Stoddard lecture sale in Philadel- |phia has beaten all former records.
