A Magic Change Made by the Proprie- tor of the Palais Royal. The transformation of the neighborhood of lith and G streets from the quiet that reigned there up till the Ist of October to the bustle and activity of a business thor- oughfare that prevails now tells more con- vincingly of the success of the New Palais Royal than the most eloquent words could. There have been folks who doubted the stability of the “G street boom,” but this doubt is now gone, and it is an accomplish- ea fact that the buying public has been taught to go from their accustomed chan- nels of traffic to places where they can get what they want at the prices they want to pay. The streams of people radiating from this handsome new establishment show how much the people of Washington appreciate the energy, courage and public spirit of Mr. Lisner, the proprietor. At any time such an enterprise as the starting of @ business on so large s scale as this re- quires a vast amount of pluck, but Mr. Lisner has that quality, and just at the beginning of the hard times that the coun- try is now feeling so acutely bought his ground and erected his building, so com- plete in its modern fittings, in spite of many gloomy that real estate would fall in a short time; that soon there would be no money for buying either real estate or merchandise, and that he was foolhardy in not being content to stay in his smaller store. But these false prophets are discomfited. For in this, the hardest winter financially that has been known for years, when one of the leading New York houses has discharged 800 hands in December, the busiest month in the year, and another that usually employs a force of 2,100 contents itself with one of 1,400, the Palais Royal is able to give work to 600 people, many of whom would other- wise be out of employment. Meanwhile the vast emporium is delight- ing thousands daily with its beautiful goods, its great bargains and its novelties. The hunters of Christmas presents are find- ing there all they seek, and gifts for old and young, pretty, useful, in all grades of cost and all sorts of tastes. There is not a human desire that cannot be satisfied there. It is a veritable wonderland of good things. Provided with every convenience for customers, it is the usual thing that parties of shoppers go early in the morning to the Palais Royal and spend the entire day, leaving with reluctance in the evening when home duties compel them to leave. These facts are sufficient warrant for the popular belief that Mr. Lisner has le no mistake in taking his old custom up to @ street and creating a new patronage in addition there. As an evidence both of his success and his charitable inclinations, which lead him to many acts of unostenta- tious giving, mention has recently been made of the fact that he sent to the Com- missioners of the District, in addition to his usual liberal contributions, the sum of $425, or five per cent of one day’s actual sales, to be used tn relieving the poor of the city. At present the Palais Royal is undoubted- ly one of the most interesting points in the city. Aside from the rich and wonderful display of goods it is interesting to observe how the great business of a modern store is conducted. The establishment is fitted with elevators, pneumatic tubes for cash carriers and every device for expediting business and contributing to the comfort of customers, —— Fraternal C: cil, N.

The Secretary of the Treasury has re- quested the Secretary of State to have in- vestigated reports coming from St. Peters- burg that numbers of indigent immigrants are being “assisted” out of Russia and sent to the United States. In case the facts should be found substantially as stated, Minister White is requested to enter a for- mal protest to the Russian government in the name of the United States. Acting on the same lines, commissioners of immigra- tion are instructed to exercise the greatest circurispection in all cases to which the least suspicion attaches. — a For Rent. The Vice President has laid before the Senate a letter from Acting Secretary Cur- tis of the Treasury Department, transmit- ting @ communication from the Postmaster General urging that an appropriation of $2,000 per year should be made for the rent of parts of the basement of the Union build- ing, on G street, now used for the purpose of storing the accumulated files removed on the ist of July from the Busch building, on E street. The matter was referred to the committee on appropriations. o——__. it Is learned that Sen- te Paris to be treated By a ccblegram ator Wolcott went for double hernia. Services Were Held This Afternoon at His Late Residence. The funeral of Dr. D. C. Patterson took place at 3 o'clock this afternoon at his late residence, 919 I street. The services were read. by Rev. Dr. Newman of the Congre- gational Church. The occasion was an un- usually sad one, because the deceased was endeared to a very large circle of friends, who gathered in large numbers to pay a last | tribute to the man whom they had admired and loved in life. Many beautiful flowers typified, to some extent, their appreciation of his friendship, The pallbearers were Dr. W. W. Godding, Dr. W. W. Johnston, Dr, N. 8. Lincoln, Dr. W. H. Lovejoy, Dr. James Kerr, Dr. J. W. Bulkley, Prof. J. W. Chickering and Mr. George W. Deering. Mrs. Patterson and the only son, Dr. A. C. Patterson, will accompany the remains this evening to Cleveland, where they will be interred. —_—>-_—_. AMUSEMENTS. Albaugh’s—Thomas W. Keene gave an interesting and meritorious performance of “Othello” at Albaugh’s Grand Opera House last night. Not only were the star's efforts received with approval, but much satisfac- tion was expressed over the manner in which the subordinate members of the cast made the most of their opportunities for good work. The stage settings and the costuming were exceptionally good. The Princeton Giee Club.—The Princeton Glee Club Concert last night at Metserott Hall was one of the most successful enter- tainments of the sort ever given in this city, and drew together a large and stylish audience. It was the second concert of the | holiday tour, the first being given in Balti- more on Tuesday evening. From here the club left by special train, in which they had every possible luxury, on a fortnight's trip through the south, giving concerts in all the leading cities as far as New Orleans, returning by way of Cincinnati and Buffalo to the J y college in time for the opening CHRISTMAS AND CLOTHING. How the Holidays Affect « Great Out- Sitting Establishment. The merry holiday air has pervaded even the great clothing establishments of this city, for as the years go by people realize |» more and more the sense of giving useful presents that will last and be of value all the time, instead of expensive trifies that are admired, laid aside, and soon forgotten. As @ result of this change that has come over the principles of Christmas giving Within the past few years, one of the live- Mest business places in this city today is the great building of Saks & Co., at the northwest corner of 7th street and Market space. All day long the broad aisles of this mammoth establishment are crowded silk umbrella or the latest agony in neck- wear or hosiery, are exposed in attractive fashion before the eyes of the crowd. Some years ago when Saks & Co. put up their big brick building that was, perhaps, the pioneer in the matter of size, people said that they had portions, to draw inside the doors. | ‘When they are once inside, if the goods that! are displayed are to their liking, it is rea- sonably certain they will make a purchase of some sort before they go out. A crowd that would make a smaller store seem lively and prosperous would easily be lost In such a big establishment as this. For this reason it is necessary to bring people in crowds, and large crowds at that. It 1s a fact that is very gratifying to Saks & Company, and to every other Washin tonian, as showing that business prospects are more favorable, that the business done | this season just prior to the holidays has| been considerably larger even than that of last year. One reason for this, perhaps, is that Saks & Company have had for sale thie December all the stock of the recently | closed up Barnum business, which they have | been selling with wonderful rapidity at 50 cents on the dollar. This fact, li! vertised, has sufficed to draw people by the thousands,and when once there, even thot they did not select any article from the Barnum stock, they were pretty certain to buy something. Not! makes a more sat- isfactory or desirable holiday gift for a man or a boy some article of wearing ap- Parel that is stylish and well made. That of the next term. From a musical point of view it would be hard to get a@ better concert of the sort than that of last night. The combined organizations, the glee, banjo and mandolin clubs, number between fifty and sixty members. Each club showed evi- @ences of thorough musical training, and the solo work was much better than the average. Mr. Teall and Mr. Colby gave special pleasure with their solos that of Mr. Teall being far above the average of amateur work. In the final number,“The Creole Love Song,” the clubs united and the effect was ae pretty as it could possibly be. The concert opened with the rendition of “Old ju,’ the song so dear to the heart of every Princeton alumnus, and which every man who has etudied under the wide-spreading elms of this famous old institution has sung and learned to love. From then on there was a constant succession of good things, not all serious and not all comic, but a happy mixture of the two. There were a number of excellent glees and medieys, and @ topical song sung by Mr. Colby, called “The Romance Ends Right There,” in which reference was made to the Princeton-Yale foot bail game, was one of the big hits of the evening. Encores were numerous, and altogether the large and fashionable audi- ence enjoyed the concert to a marked de- gree. Mr. Phil King of this city, Princeton's | reat foot ball piayer, and “Doggy” Trench- ard, the captain of this year's team, were both on the mandolin club and came in for | @ full share of attention. Phil King’s friends | Were out in particularly large numbers to | give him a welcome back. “Beef” Wheeler, the great Princeton player, was also with the crowd. this is appreciated is a fact that is evident to any one who visits this store. ARE THERE DEMOCRATS IN AFRICA? The Question Asked by an Intending Liberian Colenist. Among the applications for assistance and information about emigrating to Liberia NO DELAY ALLOWED. Ex-Secretary Wayne MacVeagh Was Promptly Confirmed. The nomination of Wayne MacVeagh was not held up in the Senate long. Being an ‘ex-cabinet officer he was treated with great consideration, even though his selection for | the important post of ambassador to Italy disheartened many of the “regular” demo- | crats. The committee on foreign relations held a mecting yesteriay morning and agreed to pass the nomination to the Senate without a murmur of dissent. So, during | the afternoon, on motion of Senator Morgan, the Senate went into executive session for half ao hour and the name was put through. Later in the day, just before adjourament, there was a very brief session behind closed | doors, and as a result of the day's labor in wecret the following confirmations were an- ‘nounced: Wayne MacVeagh of a — am- bassador extraordinary and plenipotentiary of the United States to Italy. John B. Reilly of New York, consul at Ott Louis W. Pratt, collector of York. James H. Forney, United States at- torney for the district of Idaho. William A.

The Gurley Memorial Presbyterian Church on Florida avenue near 7th street, was the scene of a large and very agreeable gath- ering last évening. A reception was given by the members of the church in honor of | Rev. John Russell Verbrycke, the new pas- tor, and his wife, who this week reached the city from Piermont, N. Y., to assume his new charge. The large chapel was crowded with the oflicers, members and friends of the church, who, after an ad- dress of welcome, united in giving a most cordial and enthusiastic reception from each one individually to the new pastor. At intervals musical selections were inter- spersed, and at the close, refreshments were served by the ladies of the church.

Remenyi comes to us again laden with honor achieved from all over the world. This great violinist has held some of the most enviable of positions, having at one time been solo violinist to her majesty the Queen of England, and on leaving Eng- land for Austria was directly appointed to the same distinction by the emperor. He came to this country first in 1878 and has left and come back again a number of times. This year, however, he brings a new feature to his concerts, in his daughter, Miss Adri- enne Remenyi, soprano, who has studied under the best of masters in Paris, and later stood the test before some of the best cfitics of Europe, and came off with colors flying in the highest honors. Signor Riva de Berni, solo pianist and accompanist, is also with him. The concerts this season will eclipse all those given previously in point of artistic merit. The Harvard Glee Club.—Next Monday (Christmas evening) Metzerott Music Hail will be draped gaudily in the red of Har- vard University, in honor of its Giee, Banjo, Mandolin and Guitar Club, which intends to delight the elite of Washington society. Success is, of course, assured, as all the colleges are well received. To add more certainty to their success, however, they boast of the following local patronesses: Mrs. Justice Gray, Mrs. Justice Brown, Mrs. Olney, Mrs. Wm. E. Chandler, Mrs. Calvin S.

SES PEE Mrs. Albright Fined. Yesterday afternoon in the Police Court, after The Star's report closed, in the case of Mrs. Florine Albright, charged with using fodoform about her house, 1701 Q street, in order to get rid of Mr. Philip Brown, her subtenant, additional witnesses were sent for by the court and examined. Judge Miller summed up the testimony and said that the proof showed clearly Mrs. Albright’s guilt. ‘he offense, he sald, was a serious one and deserved more than pass- ing notice. ‘he judge said that in almost every case of this kind, where the landlord or landlady sublet the house and took board in part payment for rent, there was trouble. Mrs. Albright was fined $100 and costs and the court gave her until today to pay the | ine. ———— Attempted Suicide. James Spaight attempted suicide yester- day at his home, 328 D street southwest, by cutting his throat, but Dr. Hazen being caked succeeded in stopping the flow of blood and he will recover. Spaight is an elderly man, and a few weeks ago, while at his post as a gateman on the Baltimore and Potomac railroad on Virginia near Dela- ware avenue, shot Albert Lee, who, among some other boys, was annoying him, since which time he has been depressed over the occurrence. The boy is recovering and Spaight will soon be out. SS To Celebrate Forefathers’ Day. At the Cochran tomorrow evening the Congregational Club of Washington will hold its annual banquet in celebration of “Forefathers' day.” The program for the evening contains the following interesting items: Introductory remarks by the presi- dent of the club, Mr. Justice Brewer; toast, “Sons of the pilgrims in the nation,” Vice President A. E. Stevenson; toast, “The public schools the gift of the pilgrims to the nation,” Mr. Justice Harlan; toast, “The Puritans believed in something,” Sen- ator Hawley. Music by Dr. Bischoff and quartet will form a pleasing part of the program. ss Wants an Injunetion. James D. Burn has filed a bill against W. J. Watson et al, through Mr. C. A.

Rose Craig, a young colored woman, is sadly in need of two store teeth. She had an unpleasant meeting a few nights ago with a male friend named John Gordon, whose fist landed against Rose’s mouth with such force that her teeth disappeared. “And here they are now,” she sald to Judge Miller yesterday morning. She held the broken teeth in her hand. “I never teched her,” was what John told the court. He knew she figured in a fight at a social gathering the other night, but he could not tell how her teeth happened to fall out. “You will have to go to jail for sixty days and find out,” said Judge Miller, and John went down.
