Ss. A.M. —— ANACOSTIA, Last Thursday evening witnessed the closing chapter in the series of Christmas festivals inaugurated by the several churches of Anacostia and vicinity for the delectation of the scholars of their re- spective Sunday schools, the Congress Heights Methodist Episcopal and Emman- uel Protestant Episcopal schools having been the last two representatives in the fes- tivities. The officers of the former school, Mr. Robert H. Jordgn, superintendent, and Mr. David E. Haines, assistant superintendent, were supplemented in their efforts to en- tertain the large gathering of little and big folks by Mr. Walter Barber and Miss Mar- tha Mundell and Miss Cora C. McLean, as music director and accompanists respective- os the production of a varied and pleas- program. Masonic Hall was filled to overflowing, the audience having been reinforced with recruits from sister churches and schools, to listen to the rendition of a pleasing program of dialogue, music and recitation by the scholars of Emmanuel Sunday school. The exercises closed with a sug- gestive tableau, “Christmas Eve,” and the distribution of packages of candy and fruit, every child in the gathering having been re- membered. Santa Claus was impersonated by Dr. J. W. Hollingsworth. On Thursday afternoon, at the close of his class meeting, the ladies, through Mrs. Maria Beall, presented to James McLaren, their pastor and leader, a handsome dress ing gown as a Christmas gift. It was a genuine surprise to Pastor McLaren, and tails expression of their friendship and good Wii was feelingly responded to by him. Mr. . Beers has been confined to the house for two weeks past with a com- bination of grip and rheumatism,contracted at the funeral of his nephew, the late Wil- Mam Bayly. Anacostia had a large delegation at the oratorio of “The Messiah” last night at Convention Hall, Washington, the chorus iS represented by some of the local mu- sical talent. The cottage being erected for Mrs, Allan G. Anderson on Jackson street by Contrac- tor James Lovelace is nearing completion. The residence of Mr. Rhodes, near Suit- land, Md., was destroyed by fire a few days since, together with all the furniture, in- cluding a new piano that had just been pur- chased. A neighbor, Mr. sheltered the family. ——>___ BROOKLAND. The Christmas exhibition of the Brook- land M. E. Sunday school in the town hall was excellent in all of its details. The music was under the direction of Mr. James 8. Crawford, and gave the evidence of his careful training. A semi-chorus by Mrs. k. E. Cissell, Mrs. Murray and Mrs. Hollidge, with chorus by the school, and a solo num- ber by Mrs. Hollidge, with full chorus, were pleasing renditions, as was “Ring the Beils of Christmas” by the school.

This part of the program was prepared by Mrs. Marr, who deserves much credit for her success. “Santa Claus’, impersonated by Mr. G. B. Johnston, ap- peared in an express wagon drawn by the children of “The Old Woman in the Shoe,” and caused much pleasure by the distribu- tion of his gifts. The superintendent of the school, Mr. E. Ernest Cissel, was remem bered with a handsome umbrella, the as- sistant superintendent, Mr. George Joha- ston, received a much coveted hymnal, and the teachers of the school were made the Possessors of appropriate gifts, while the children were happy over choice confec- tions. Dr. T. Y. Hull and Mr. Cissel made short addresses of congratulation upon the growth of the school, which is only six months old, and the membership has in- creased from twenty-five to nearly oue hundred. The hall was beautifully deco- rated by Mr. Cissel, assisted by members of St. Clement’s Sunday school, and a Christmas tree was gracefully pretty with its tinsel ornaments. The burglarious epidemic is about breaking out again. Mr. J. Blake Clark’s residence was visited by thieves this week and x¢ large quantity of edibles confiscated. Only a short time ago Mr. Clark was relieved of his entire Sunday dinner in the same man- ner, and Mr. Henry Deihl and a number cf other persons around Queenstown have of late had their flocks of chickens much di- minished by night prowlers. St. Clement’s P. E. Sunday school had a gailv lighted tree last night and a good audience to see them receive their Christ- mas gifts. St. Clement’s is the latest or- ganized Sunday school of the town, and h: only twenty pupils enrolled and two teach- ers, Miss Mamie Erdman and Miss Mary Burr. Carols were sung by the children and an interesting address made by thi Rev. Dr, Dolloway. Merle Barton and Mildred Galt each read a story of Christ- mas, and then the presents were distrib- uted, each child receiving a souvenir, a box of bon bens and an orange. “Nearer. My God, to Thee” was sung by the andience benediction pronounced by Dr. ae FREDERICK. A strange case of suicide was discovered Thursday at Smithsburg, just across the We-shineten commty * foamy. Welle, this county. On Wednesday evening a Swanger, mounted on a young brown mare, Suppes at the home of Lee Uswaid, near Smithsburg, and asked if he could sleep all night in the stable. He was given permis- ‘sion to do so and nothing more was thought of him. The next morning when the Os- ‘walds went out to the stable they found the dead body of the stranger dangling from @ rafter in the roof, from which he had sus- pended himself by the halter from around his horse’s neck, which he had taken off and fastened around his own. He had evi- dently stood on the back of the mare while he prepared to hang himself, and then when he was ready gave her a kick and dro’ her out trom under him. The authoriti in the neighborhood were at once notified and the body cut down, but all attempts to identify it have so far proved futile. It was at first supposed that the suicide was Solo- mon Michaels of near Myerville, this county, but his brother, J. H. Michaels of Wolfs- ville, who was sent for, failed to identify him. The man was about thirty-five years of age, with brown beard and mustache, high, broad forehead and light complexion, warmly dressed, about five feet six inches| tall and weighed 140 pounds. Coroner Sim- ners of the vicinity summoned a jury of inquest, and they Since then an effcct has been made to con- nect the stranger with a thief who stole a/ horse Tuesday !.ight from the stable of John Hutzell, near Smoketown. The horse stolen and the horse ridden by the stranger were exactly alike in appearance, but no one can conjecture by what motive a horse thicf could have been led to commit suicide in so singular 4a manner. The body of the un- fortunate man is being held in the hope that someone will be able to identify it. Excitement was caused here on Friday by the arrival in the city of Sheriff S. Warnick of Cumberland, Alleghany count: who said he was on the track of the mur- derers of P. E. Haldeman and had a clue that they could be found in Frederick. He ran out all the sources of his information in a little while, however,and returned to Cum- berland in the afternoon empty handed. A sudden death from the grip occurred in this county Thursday morning. Mrs. Jacob Wiles, who lived at the home of her daugh- ter at Harmony, was taken sick with it about a week ago, but did not become ser- jously ill tll Thursday morning, when she was seized suddenly with something lie croup and died at 9 o'clcck. Her husband} had ieft early in the morning for Hagers-| town, to make arrangement to move, and when he returned in the evening found his wife a corpse. She was sixty-nine years| old and leaves seven children. Charles Monahan, a popular brakeman on the Western Maryland railroad, endered a verdict that} the stranger came to his death by suicide. | living at} Sabillaville, this county, while engaged in coupling cars the other day had his right hand painfully and severely mashed. A high wind, which blew here on Tuesday night, was, from reports now coming in, of @ fierce and serious character in the county, damaging property in many directions. On the farm of Charles Broodrup, near Charles- ville, the entire gable end of his large stone barn was blown out, and in the vicinity fences and small buildings were demolished. A mountain fire of more than usual scope and fierceness has been raging since Satur- day night last in the Catoctin range, back of Knoxville, and within a few miles of the summer house of George Alfred Townsend, at Gapland. At night the light of the flam- ing timber is plainly visible from this city. The fire has burned off a large quantity of valuable timber, but no other property has been destroyed. The funeral of Dr. Francis T. Burck, who died at his home in Washington on Christ- mas day, took place Friday morning in St. John’s Catholic Church, this city, at 9 o'clock, the church being crowded with citi- zens. The solemn requiem mass was cele- brated by the Rev. Father Coleman, and afterward the body was buried in the Cath- olic cemetery. The pall bearers were mem- bers of the Independent Hose Company, of which the deceased had formerly been sur- geon. Many beautiful floral tributes were sent to adorn the grave. The Frederick County Historical Society has received from the Library of Congress, Washington, a request for information and an account of the Darnall family, once prominent here. The information was fur- nisifed by the secretary, Dr. Charles W. Hoffman, —_—_—_. OPPOSING THE FIGHT. The Governor of Florida Promises to Keep Mitchell and Corbett Apart. The managers of the Duval Athletic Club at Jacksonville, Fla., are in a state of pan- ic. The arrest of Corbett and Mitchell was Gesigned to detine the law and get a decla- ration from Judge Baker of the county court that the proposed match, as describ- ed in the articles of agreement, would not be an illegal act. Governor Mitchell refuses elther to coun- tenance the proceedings while they pend or to respect the decision of the court when it is rendered. This is what he said: “I shall not be garroted by any county or circuit court’s decision. There are seven courts in the state, and each one may give a different judgment. If the case is sub- mitted to the supreme court, as a last re- sort, and if the court decides that I have no authority to prevent the fight, I will be governed by it, but 1 will not be governed by the decision of any other court in the state.” The governor is exceedingly wroth at the course of the Duval county judicial authori- ties in arresting Corbett and Mitchell. It is said that the governor has been keeping the wires hot roasting Solicitor Christie of the county court for his action in the mat- ter, charging that Christie and all the other judicial officers of the county are in collu- sion with the Duval Athletic Club, and are abetting the club's efforts to pull off the match, and that the arrests and proposed test of the law are not in good faith. The judicial authorities of the county refuse to either deny or affirm the current reports. They admit that they have re- ceived telegrams from the governor in re- gard to the arrests of Corbett and Mitchell and the proposed test of the law, but the nature of the dispatches they refuse to di- vulge. At any rate, yesterday was a rather “blue” day for the sports, and there was a rather “shaky” feeling in regard to the out- come. The situation is about as follows: Governor Mitchell and Attorney General Lamar, the highest law officer of the state, assert that the proposed contest will violate the laws of the state; Bowden of the ath- letic club and his lawyers say that it will not. i Governor Mitchell was once on the su- preme bench, and it is believed that he knows as much about the laws of the state as the attorneys for the club. It is also be- lieved that the opinion of Attorney Generali Lamar that the proposed fight would be il- legal was prepared after a consultation with the governor and members of the su- Preme court as to the law in the case. it is signiticant in this connection that Governor Mitchell says no decision save that of the supreme court will deter him from his efforts to stop the fight. Those close to the governor believe that this decla- ration means that the governor knows that the decision of the supreme court will be against the legality of the contest. An Unwise Boast. Several things have conspired to make the governor very bitter in his opposition to the fight. One “special dispatch” sent out from Jacksonville has, it is said, cut him to the quick and hardened him in his determination that no slugging match shall occur in Florida. The “special” referred to stated, in substance, that while the gov- ernor was at Tampa for the holidays cer- tain parties who favored the fight proposed to get him off on a camp hunt and “mellow him and jolly him” into allowing the fight to come off. It was broadly intimated in the dispatch that good liquids and cigars would play a great part in the mellowing and jollying campaign against the governor. Naturally, all these things have madden- ed the governor, and it is said that to men- tion the word “fight” acts on him like the sight of a red rag on a bull. in conlirmation of the above statements of Governor Mitchell's attitude, a dispatch just received from ‘tampa says that the governor stated last evening in the most positive terms that “the fight will not come oX in Florida.” He says that he has his plans for preventing the fight consummat- ed, and that at the proper moment he will act. The “proper moment” is supposed to be, in the governor’s opinion, when Mitchell and Corbett are about ready to face each other. The governor is further quoted as saying: “I regard this proposed fight as an offense against the peace and dignity of the state, and my determination to prevent it is fixed. Meanwhile Corbett and Mitchell are en- gaged in slinging billingsgate at each oth- er, to the great disgust of the public. Cor- bett, in an interview, called Mitchell “a con- vict and a sneak,” and Mitchell replies, ap- plying similar choice epithets to Corbett. A Morning Fight Planned. It has been decided to have the fight take place at 11 o’clock in the morning instead of night. Arrangements for electric light- ing at night could not be made. Some Col From the Samaritan. Never lean with the back upon anything that is cold. Never begin a journey until breakfast has been eaten, Never take warm drinks and then im- mediately go out into the cold. Keep the back, especially between the shoulder blades, well covered. Also the chest well protected. In sleeping in a cold room establish a habit of breathing through the nose and never with the mouth open, Never go to bed with cold or damp feet. Never omit regular bathing, for, unless the skin is in active condition, the cold will close the pores and favor congestion and other diseases. After exercise of any kind never ride in an open carriage or near the window of a car for a moment. It is dangerous to health or even life. g When hoarse speak as little as possible until the hoarseness is recovered from, else the voice may be permanently lost, or difficulties of the throat be produced. Merely warm the back by the fire and never continue keeping the back exposed to the heat after it has become comforta- bly warm. To do otherwise is debilitating. When going from a warm atmosphere in- to a cooler one keep the mouth closed, so that the air may be warmed in its pas- sage through the nose before it reaches the lungs. Never stand still in cold weather, espe- clally after having taken a slight degree of exercise, and always avoid standing on ice or snow, or where the person is ex- posed to cold wind. Weather Rules. ——_—_+e+—____ Where Tobacco is Raised. From the Philadelphia Ledger. Lancaster county, it appears, still stands at the head of all the tobacco growing counties in the United States, with her 19,217,800 pounds grown in the season of 1889. Four other counties—Christian and Henderson in Kentucky;Dane in Wisconsin and Pittsylvania county in Virginia—grow over 10,000,000 each. There are seventeen other counties that grow from 5,000,000 to 10,000,000 pounds each. Lancaster county’s product in 1889, as all know, was sold at exceedingly low prices—about the low- est in our history—and even then produced the growers $1,349,090, The nearest ap- proach to this by any other individual nty Was $886,810 by Hartford county, Conn. The product of Lancaster county, in fact, fetched more money than that of the entire state of Connecticut or of Wis- consin o: of New York and Massachusetts combined. AMONG THE CHURCHES. A MATTER OF DOUBT. One atways wonders where all the bells} The Farmer Thought the Widow Was are in Washington which he ‘hears ringing out the old year at midnight on New Year eve. He has never realized until he hears the chimes and the peals at that time that there were any bells in the city, perhaps. He is right too, in a way, for there are very few here. Those few are mainly the church bells. In a country place the church bell is re- | Sarded as quite as indispensable as the min- ister himself, and is used for all purposes. But in a city, where people do not go and come by the ringing of bells, or set their clocks accordingly, the need for a church bell is slight, and it is considered by many! congregations as a useless expense. The idea is a pleasant one, however, and there are a number of churches in this city whose towers strike out the hours of the day or ring for the services of the church. Among these the bells of St. Aloysius’ Catholic Church, corner of North Capitol and I streets northwest, are familiar to many ears, and are the timekeepers of that local- ity. There are four of them and they strike every quarter hour. On Sundays and on other occasions they are commonly rung all together in a chime and produce a splendid harmony. The Metropolitan M. E. Church, corner of 4 1-2 and C streets northwest, is unique in being the only church in the city possessing a chime of bells on which tunes may be played. There is a complete scale and a few notes more above and below, in very pretty bells. Every Sunday night and at some other times one may hear familiar tunes coming from the belfry of this church. St. Dominic's Catholic Church, in South Washington, strikes the hours, while the Church of the immaculate Conception (Cath- olic), corner of Sth and N streets northwest, has by far the heaviest bell in the city. On a clear night it may be heard all over Washington. None of the down-town churches has a bell, and there are few belis in the more extreme northwest portion of the city. There is never any end to the struggle of the churches to stretch out and gain new ground. To any one interested in the church growth of this city the list and data pub- lished in the city directory just issued for the new year regarding the churches will be found both interesting and instructive. It will show the remarkable way in which some denominations have been spreading out, and on comparison with the list com- piled last year, will show how many and rapid are the changes, and how great the progress which has been made everywhere. Last year's directory showed 2i3 churches in the District, of which eighty were color- ed and the others white. The list in the 1894 directory numbers 224 churches, of which ninety-six are colored and 128 white. Dividing the number acording to denomina- tons, there are thirteen white and forty- five colored Baptist churches; fourteen white and one colored Roman Catholic churches; one Christadeiphian Church; four white and three colored Congregational churches; two Christian churches; twenty- four white and four colored Protestant Episcopal churches; two Friends’ churches; two Hebrew churches; thirteen Luther- an churches; twenty-four Methodist Epis- copal white and thirty colored churches; five Methodist Episcopal South churches; six Methodist Protestant churches; nineteen white and one colored Presbyterian church- es; two Reformed churches; one Sweden- borgian church; one Unitarian; one Uni- yersalist and one Church of the United Brethren in Christ, and five miscellaneous churches and missions. The list is accu- rate in most respects, although some changes have been made even while it was being printed. In the past year the colored churches have grown especially. The Chris- tians have doubled their number, and both the Methodist Protestant and Methodist Episcopal South churebes have increased largely. The Methodist Episcopal churches are the greatest in number, both colored and white, although the Episcopalians have an equal number of white churches, and proba- bly a larger membership of white persons than any other denomination in the city. The Rey. Frank Sewall, pastor of the Church of the Holy City, on Dupont circle, will tomorrow evening begin a course of free lectures on ‘Truth, Pilgrtmage and Scenes in the History of Religion.” They will deal with the origin of religions, going back to the oriental, Egyptian and Greek traditions. Miss Edna Doe of the Eastern Presbyter- fan Church, corner of Maryland avenue and 6th street northeast, has been engaged by Choirmaster Watson of the Christ Episcopal Church in Georgetown as soprano soloist, her engagement to commence with the Ist of January. The annual election of officers for the Queenstown Baptist Sunday school in Brook- land resulted in the election of J. L. Sher- wood us superintendent, C. G. Lynch as as- istant superintendent, J. B. Lord, jr., as secretary, Miss Kittie Biret as assistant secretary, Mrs. I. Quackenbush as treas- urer, George H. Kane as librarian, Fred Perkins as assistant librarian, and Miss Annie Lynch as pianist. The Vermont Avenue Baptist Church, on Vermont avenue, above Thomas circle, is being repaired and the steeple fixed. The Christian Endeavor Society of the First Congregational Church will have a novel service in the way of a New Year prayer meeting, to take place next Monday morning, for the members of the society and others who may wish to come in. A force of workmen are busy repairing the Grace Baptist Church in Georgetown, which was severely damaged by fire recent- ly. They began over a week ago and have made great strides toward putting the church in its old neat and trim state. The work of laying the foundations and running up the stone walls of St. ‘Thomas’ Protestant Episcopal Church, near .)upont Circle, more generaiily known as the Cal- vary Episcopal Churen, ts going on rapidly, and the walls are a considerable wa: above the level of the street. St. Mark’s Episcopal Sunday school held their Christmas festival night before last and the occasion was very much enjoyed by all. An address was made by the pastor, Rev. David Richaris, and Mr. Thomas Keech, dressed as a typical Santa us, gave out a box of candy to each one of phout 250 litle ones present. Mr. J. Walter Cooksey was presented with a beautiful prayer book and hymnal, while various oth- er teachers were remembered by their scholars. It 1s customary for the Catholic churches in many cases to repeat thelr Christmas music on the Sunday following, so those who were unable to attend on Christmas day may bear this fact in mind and hear to- morrow what they missed last Monday. The officers of the Metropolitan Raptist Sunday school, corner of 6th and A streets northeast, recently elected are Kaw, Warren, superintendent; Benjamin Vall, first assist- ant superintendent; Mrs. Frances Mclean, second assistant superintendent; Miss Bar- bara Maier, third assistant superintendent; Mr. Julian T. Cockerell, secretary. Miss Laura French was elected treasurer, but she has resigned, and her place has not yet been filled. The other officers are Mr. Steven F. Hamilton, librarian; Mr. Jean Dawsey, first assistant Nbrarian; Miss Nel- lie Hamilton, second assistant librarian; Mr. Brooks, chorister; Miss Belle Brooks, organist. —. — AGAINST DRIXiXING WATER. A Man Who W Rather Fastidious About Using the Tank Cup. From the New York Tribune. In a room where many people gather in a day is a water tank, and a porcelain cup hangs from it by a chain. A New York man, going up to it with a friend to get a drink of water, attempted to show the other how one might drink from a public cup and still not mingle lips, so to speak. “You see,” he said, “I do it this way. I take up the cup and touch my lips to it at this point, closest to the handle. Every one, you know, naturally holds a cup by the handle. Holding it thus it is extremely awkward to get one’s lips anywhere except on a certain part of one side of the rim, so that people without knowing it place their lips to almost the same spot. But as you see,” he went on, illustrating his action, “I twist it around this way and get an un- touched spot.” That was a good theory, but it was not borne out by facts. The two stood near the water cooler for some time in conversation. Meanwhile several people came up to get drinks of water. About half of them had the same theory as the first man, so that they all landed on the same place by inten- tion.
