A MILITARY NIGHT National Guard at the Oonvention Hall Food Exposition. ‘Tomorrow Night Given Up to Charity The pure food exposition continues to at- tract large crowds to Convention Hall, and every afternoon and evening, when the band Plays, the scene is gay with life and motion. The many booths where are displayed the exhibits of some of the leading manufac- turers and importers are inspected with real interest, and the housekeepers, especially, go away with many suggestions that they intend to put into effect in their own homes at the earliest opportunity. A Banquet. One of the pleasant features of last week's program was a banquet, given by the management and exhibitors to the local press, at which over 100 covers were laid. ‘The affair was a memorable one, and the banquet, which did not begin until mid- night, lasted for several hours after that. The menu was an elaborate one, and con- sisted entirely of pure food, that is to say, of articles on exhibition at the big show. With them went an abundance of pure wines, and the occasion was a bright and merry one. Military Night. Tonight the big Convention Hall will be filled with boys in blue in full regalia. Military night is the designation of the evening, and there will be very few of the, members of the National Guard, not sick in’ bed, who will not be present to look at the big aifair, taste the many good things, lis- ten to the band and to Miss Johnson's charming lectures on cooking. There will be a number of military features. The Ma- rine Band will play selections dear to the soldier's heart, while Miss Johnson will give an illustrated lecture on cooking, that will strike remorse to the soldier's heart as he thinks what might have been in camp if he had sooner divorced himself from in- sinuating ideas concerning boiled beans and salt pork. — second regiment will attend in a ‘Totnorrow afternoon has been given up to the orphams of the city, who have been in- vited in force, while the receipts tomorrow night are to be devoted to charity.

Fill the whites again; press the halves together and serve on curly lettuce leaves with cream sauce. Or the eggs may be rolled in egg and bread crumbs and fried in deep fai. Sweetbreads Glace. Put into the bottom of the baking pan one small carot, one small cnioa sliced, one bay leaf, two sprigs of parsley and a leaf of celery. Parboil the sweetbreads; lay on the vegetables und half cover with hot stock; cook until the stocx has been nearly or quite absorbed, wasting once ur twice with melted butter.

The Board of Managers Say the In- stitution is Crippled. The board of managers of the Industrial Home School have sent the following letter, @ brief mention of which was made Satur- day, to the Commissioners of the District: “The board of managers of the Indus- trial Home School find the institution under their charge already so crippled and with @ prospect of still further injury, if not of entire destruction by adverse legislation at the last session of Congress, that they are constrained to bring the matter to your at- tention, “As you are aware, the admirable grounds and the buildings of this school belong to the District of Columbia, and for many years it has been supported almost entirely by appropriations from the District treas- ury. It is equipped for the accommoda- tion of 100 children, and muclr of the ex- pense of supporting the institution, as now organized to give the children elementary and industrial education, is necessarily in- curred, and cannot be curtailed by dimin- ishing the number of children. On its pres- ent plan, even with a reduced number of children, the buildings must be heated in winter, a superintendent and other subor- dinate officers, teachers of an elementary school, a carpenter who is a teacher of woodwork, a gardener and florist who is a teacher of horticulture. and floriculture must continue to be employed. These em- ployes may care for and instruct 100 chil- dren as well as fifty. To reduce the ex- penses of the school by dismissing these instructors would be practically to convert it into a juvenile alms house, and we are confident that neither the District Com- missioners nor Congress desire to have this done. “The amount required for the annual maintenance of 100 children in this institu- tion and which has been appropriated here- tofore by Congress for this purpose was $13,000. At the last session of Congress this amount was reduced to $7,680, the managers of the school were informed that the reduction of 40 per cent would be made up to them through the board of children’s guardians, This expectation has ndt been realized. The number of children in the school has been reduced to sixty-three, sal- aries have been reduced and discontinued wherever practicable without destroying the efficiency and character of the institu- tion, and yet the board finds itself con- fronted with a probable deficiency of $2,000 at the end of the year. Help Asked for. “Under these circumstances the board of managers felt it to be their duty to present the facts to the District Commissioners and to ask their interposition to prevent the abolishing or crippling of an institution that has so clearly demonstrated its neces- sity and usefulness in this District. Super- intendent Warner in his last annual re- port said of this school: ‘If the corpora- tion controlling the institution is willing to so modify its character as to become a pub- lic corporation, with members appointed by the Commissioners on the recommenda- tion of the board itself, I should distinctly favor having this institution appear by name in the annual appropriation bills and receive & substantive appropriation on the same footing as the reform school.’ Aga! speaking of the board of children’ measures should be adopted that would cripple existing institutions or fail: to pro- vide in the fullest possible manner for the properly dependent children of the Dis- mre again: ‘In pleasant contrast with common unwillingness of employers to take institution children is the fact that those who leave this institution are sought after by persons desiring to employ such help. The industrial training given at the institution adds considerably to the ex- pense of it, but no one can doubt who has carefully examined the results that it much more than pays for itself.’ Effect of the New Law. “Superintendent Tracy, in his recent re- port touching the appropriation for this institution, said: ‘The brief experience of this system during the current fiscal year does not commend it. The institutions de- prived of the 40 per cent are crippled, while the board of children’s guardians, energeti- cally pFosetuting its work within its prov- ince, as-defined by the courts, has on hand a considerable surplus. In this way the children’s charities of the District are de- prived of money for their support, while the board of children’s guardians does not, in fact, currently expend the sum to its credit, and, consequently, the charities are deprived of a considerable part of the mon- eys allowed for their maintenance without full compensating benefit to the community through any other channel. Examination does not show that the appropriations here- tofore made to the children’s charities of the District were disproportionately large in comparison with other institutions or that they were wastefully excessive in themselves.” “To preserve the Industrial Home School with its past usefulness and efficiency it will be necessary to have $2,000 to supply a deficiency in the appropriation for the current fiscal year; $13,000 for maintenance for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1895, in- stead of $7,860, as submitted to Congress in the estimates of the Commissioners, and $4,000 for greatly needed repairs and im- provements on the old central building, which have heretofore been examined and approved of by the superintendent of char- ities: id the District Commissioners and sem ted for by the inspector of bulld- ings. lim Camp a Camp Grounds Committee. The organization of the camp and camp grounds committee of the Knights of Pythias was effected Friday at the Pythian headquarters in the Warder building. This committee has charge of the procuring of camp grounds and preparing the same for the convenience of the members of the uniform rank; also providing tents, tent floors and other such accommodations.

MANY APPLICANTS FOR AID. oy Hundreds ‘Seeking Relief From the Associated Charities. The office of the general secretary of the Associated Charities, at 811 G street north- west, is overrun with applicants for aid. Mr. L. 8S. Emery, the general secretary, to- day made a statement as follows: “The calls upon the Associated Charities at the central office, and the several divis- fons, average between three and four hun- dred daily, many of which are very dis- tressing cases, and the distress to a large extent is lack of employment. There are many, however, that come that do not need to, but because they have heard that there is something being given and they want their share of it, but that class we have well in hand. We need funds to meet the proper demands upon us.” —_—_—_o—___ Passed Confederate Money. Charles Lewis and John Butts were the names given by two young men who were tried in Judge Kimball’s court Saturday on charge of vagrancy and suspicion. They were arrested by Policeman Williams, and it was charged that they passed confeder- ate notes on persons in the “Division.” One of the notes, it was charged, was passed on an Italian woman in charge of a fruit stand, where a package of cigarettes was pur- chased and 95 cents in change given. In the other case it was alleged that the note was passed in a disreputable house. The de- fendants made denials and Judge Kimball held them guilty. They were sentenced to give real estate security in the sum of $200 each or go down for thirty days, —— > U. S. Grant Post. U. S. Grant Post, No. 12, G. A.
