At _ | QFFAIRS INGEORGETOWN | Residents Watching Olosely Proposed Steam Railroad Plans. Norfolk and Western—Canal Cinime— Amateur Theatrical Entertainments —Many Notes of Interest. While the report that the Norfolk and Western company are negotiating for the purchase of the Washington and Ohio road, which rans from Alexandria to Round Hill, Va., via Falls Church, has not been veri- fied to the satisfaction of some Georgetown citizens, yet to one who has watched the movements of steam railroads for years, and who keeps himself in constant com- munication with the cfficers of the various corporations desirirg to enter Georgetown, it is an arsure theory. To a Star reporter he said today that he had been more than once informed by those whose words carry weight and power with them that it had been the great desire of the Norfolk and Western people to purchase this line as the preliminary step to thelr actual move to- ward the District. When this desire had been satisiied they intended to extend an arm of their road to the Aqueduct bridge, beginning from a point midway between Torrisun station, a place near Ball’s Cross Roads, and the town of Falls Church, a measured distance of three and three- fourths miles. From Round Hill the pres- ent terminus of the Washington and Ohio to Serryville, on the Shenandoah branch |of the Norfolk and Western, is a distance lof ter miles. The connection of these two | Points wiil then bring about the opening of the entire Norfolk and Western country to the District by way of Rosslyn. At the southern end of the aqueduc., Berryville, which seems to be the objective point, or the place on which hinges the success of the proposed or alleged purchase and ex- tension, is a thriving village of about three thousand inhabitants, and of some im- portance as a wagon-building place, a town of mills and a lively cattle market. To get but the building of fourteen miles of road. The consummation of this desire of the Norfolk and Western company would give them a di-ect connection with the District without the necessity of going over the | tracks of y other railroad for their Wash- jington travel and freight, and also without | asking any favors of Congress. At present they pay trackage to the Baltimore and Ohio company for bringing | their freight and passengers to Washington {by the way of Harper’s Ferry and the Metropolitan branch, ‘The through freight to the northern cities could still be handled over the present route or by connection with the Pennsyi- vania company at the Aqueduct bridge, via the new Rosslyn extension, which is to be completed in ninety days. Canal ime. A bill has been introduced into the Mary- land legislature by Mr. Lamar of Mont- somery county asking that the state ap- propriate $7,000 to settle certain debts of the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal Company that have accrued through the purchase of material and labor since 1877. On the pay- ment of the claims they are to he assigned over to the state, to be held against the company. It is set forth in the bill that the state owned a majority of the stock and that the president and board of directors of the company, who mai the canal, were elected by the board of public works of the state; that the labor, materials and re- pairs were essential to the preservation of the work, and under the charter of the company this is constituted a first lien on the tolls and revenues of the canal, and that it was “beneficial to the state and in the nature of salvage of state re it is also Claimed that the decision of the circuit court for Washington county, affirm- ed by the court of appeals, which gave the trustees of the bondholders of "44 possession of the canal, established the priority and standing of these claims. Georgetown's Poor. “What the Georgetown branch of the Associated Charities needs most,” said Secretary Davis to a Star reporter today, “is a quantity of women’s and children’s undergarments. Donations of such apparel are seldom received, though at all times needed for distribution.- Half our callers are noticed to be shivering from an in- sufficiency of it. There appears to be com- paratively more distress among mechanics, those who usually fare well, than among any other class in town. The calls from the members of mechanics’ families are surprisingly frequent. Every day impos- tors are turned down. They work in vari- ous ways—a favorite one being to apply on the same day to every aid society in town. If these societies would only con- solidate under one management much more good would be accomplished and less im- position practiced. There is no way under the present system of management of pre- venting the obtaining of goods by impostors from all the societies at once.” Amateur Theatricals. At the request of the governors of the Solfdiers’ Home the Linthicum Students last night presented in the veterans’ big hall their strong double bill, “Poisoned” and “A. " with specialties by Messrs. Balinger, Collins and Pullzti. The hall was densely crowded with the old defenders, the officers, the wives and daughters and scores of people from the country round. From the rise to the fall of the curtain the un- divided attention of the audience was held. The outbursts of applause at the inimitable work of Robt. F. Rowe, James A. Keliher and Guy V. Collins was at times so loudly appreciative as to necessitate the introduc- tion of pantomime until it subsided; and Nathan Weill, Thomas Fleming and I Oet- tinger were never better. “Poisoned” went off with a rush. J. Barton Miller assumed the leading character, Robt. F. Lowe, that of Mrs. Priggett, his own creation, and Will- iam Sebastian that of Tom, the aggrayat- ing servant to Mivins, Messrs. Pulizzi and Balinger made distinctive hits in their reci- tations. “The Students” being the guests. of the home they were treated as such. On January 24 a majority of “The Stu- dents” will appear in conjunction with the well-known Unity Club of Washington at the Elsmere Hotel. Paragraphs. Three bewildered tots were picked up yes- terady on the corner of 28th and M streets by Officer Berryman and brought to the sta- tion. They later proved to be John Benton, aged six, and the two girls, aged four and five, respectively, of Mr. Meinkenheim. The Rev. Gilbert F. Williams of Christ Church, Navy Yard, spoke learnedly and en- tertainingly at St. John’s last evening on “St. Cyprian, One of the Fathers of che Church.” A large audience was in attend- ance. Mr. F. L. Moore, wife and daughter will leave today for Florida. On their way they will stop in Richmond and Charleston. In Florida they will stay for six weeks and then go to the mountains of North Carolina in the vicinity of Asheville. The Misses Pyle and Mrs. Green yesterday gave a charming tea at their home on the heights from 4 to 7 o'clock. —_—_——— A FARME! PHILOSOPHY. He Gives Some Reasons for the Exist- ence of Hard Times. From the American Times. “There is being so much said in the coun- try about hard times and the scarcity of money, and as everybody has a cause and knows a remedy, I thought I would write an@ tell your readers what I think is the cause “We buy more than we produce. “There is too much flour and bacon ship- ped here every year.

All dragrists, TO REVIVE BUSINESS A Plan to Secure a Uniform Reduction in the Oost of Building. An important action was taken at a larce- ly attended meeting of the Builders’ Ex- change, at their hall last evening, which is intended to stimulate business by drawing out capital into investments. The resolu- tion looking to this end was prepared by Mr. Thomas J. King, the secretary of the Exchange, and is as follows: “Whereas, owing to the unexpected finan- cial scare with which the moneyed inter- est of this country has been seized great depression exists in the building trades of this city, many dealers in and manufactur- sons: ““The substantial and artistic manmer in ghee bull are ~~ pare ed e icity of the method in securing loa: ~$-; estate—by deeds of trust; “-Our f1 from heavy fire losses i i g if ? i i : il 4 5 & . i | Fl i | | F | vb} hil if! i ii | | | ; | I ai are ali FeekY | if E EE 5 | | ! i i g g E : i f E al adit 4 , i , i tl thesis 4 a Mi b Hit i i ; fi}: je ffee ae
