Churches Pat to an Expense Owing to a Change in the Water Pressure— Other Interesting Matters. Representative Heard, on the recom- mendation of and for the Commissioners, is asking for authority from Congress to sell the old Chamberlain School house. to the north of P between 25th and 26th Streets, Georgetown, and the old police Station on 324 street and the canal. This latter is the property that the people of Georgetown have been striving to obtain for an emergency hospital. So many of her injured have suffered severely through the long and uncomfortable drive to the Washington Emergency that they insist, for the more prompt care of the wounded and sick, that a temporary hospital be established here. Many are so anxious for it that they have stated they would will- ingly contribute to its yearly support should the building be given them. But few changes in the structure would be neces- sary, and the beds and furnishings would cost but a comparative trifle, Aside from all this the people think they should not be deprived of every littie piece of District property. While it remaias in the name of the District the town has & possibility of seeing it used for its benefit, but if it is sold and the proceeds are turned into the general fund, its part becomes but a@ drop, and often it is allowed to thirst for that. Georgetown is awakening. Her People say they have been trampled upon jong enough. They mean now to assert their rights and eo to every extremity in order to obtain them. “Why should the Chamberlain butiding be | sold at all?” asks a big taxpayer. “It will not be long before a new colored school is ; Needed, and where can be found a site | more convenient to the colored people than that now occupied by this old building? = is right in the heart of the section oc- upied almost exclusively by the colored ponte, and is of adequate dimensions, ‘ear down the unsightly building and ‘re- tain the site for a future need.” Coal Miners Strike. The coal miners in the Hampshire mine, one of those which help to sustain the Chesapeake and Ohio canal, are out on a strike against a reduction of from 50 cents to 40 cents a ton for mining. The Hamp- shire coal sells from 15 cents to 20 cents less per ton than that taken from what is known as the Big Vein, and, it is said, costs much more to mine. For some time operations have been carried on, it is claim- ed, at an expense to the company. If the miners do not care to work for 40 cents the Hampshire will shut down, The Davis Company, who control it, are so largely in- terested in other mines that this one, it is a. is practically of no importance to em. Past High Priests’ Jewels. Just before the election last night at Ma- sonic Hall magnificent jewels were present- ed to the following past jigh priests: Henry A. Johnson, Jesse W. Lee and Joseph R. Rose. Retiring High Priest Davis was also a recipient of one. The annual election of officers of Poto- mae Chapter, No. 8, R. A. M., resulted as follows: Isaac Birch, high priest; John E. Wagner, king; C. W. Cornwell, scribe; Charles Becker, treasurer, and F. W. Storch, Grand High Priest Cor- secretary. son made the installations. Catholic Unton Election. At the annual election of officers of the Georgetown Catholic Union, held last night, Mr. J. B, McGirr was chosen president, Mr. Charies R. Murray, vice president; Mr. Geo. W. Cook, secretary; Mr. Thos. R. Fullalove, Ubrarian, and Mr. Thos. Keliher, assistant librarian. Directors were selected as fol- lows: Messrs. Eugene Dyer, J. A. Keliher, F. J. Wisener, B. P. Craig and Thomas O'Connor. Charches and the Water Supply. There was placed in the Congress Street Church yesterday the new $50 motor and connections, the purchase of which was made necessary by the changing of the water supply from the high to the low sez- vice. The church officers feel as if they have been wronged by the water depart- ment. They applied, it is claimed, often and with earnestness to have the supply increas- ed, or made available for church purposes, but were given no satisfaction or encour- agement. It is understood that other churches in the same section will be obliged to go Lo a similar expense in order to run the organ. Lensed Bethesda Park. | Messrs. Ernest McCobb and W. J. Mullin jhave taken a one year’s lease on Bethesda | Park with the object in view of turning the resort into a first-class one.

At Cropley’s Hall, corner 3ist and M streets, last night there was a creditable entertainment given for the benefit of charity. The program was varied and spicy. The euccess of the affair was largely due to the energy displayed by Messrs. Dreyfuss,.Weill, Cohen and Rothchild. Mr. Maurice W. Walters of 32d street was married yesterday afternoon to Miss Kate Spalding at 919 22d street. At a late hour jast night the bridal couple left for New York. At 4:30 yesterday Mrs. Barbara Proctor of 3213 _O street, wife of the ex-superintendent of Oak Hill cemetery, died, in the sixty- aad year of her age. Her funeral will take piace tomorrow. .
