Project to Form a Historical Society Being Revived. That Section of Washington Rich in Material That Should Be Preserved —Other Interesting Matters. The people of Georgetown were last sum- mer promised an historical society, whose officers should be given charge of the num- ezous and interesting documents, books, etc., which originated in the days of long ago, but the death of Mr. William 8. Jack- son, the prime mover in its organization, has thrown the matter back where is was, depriving it of life and growth, at least for the present. From the talk on the subject, though, it is not improbable that a new leader will spring up and carry to comple- tion the much to be commended project. Georgetown is rich in interesting relics, antique bric-a-brac, possessions of men who shone when they lMved, old maps, houses with romantic histories, and other things whose accumulation and restoration would add great attractiveness tothe place. The most valuable of these are said to be at present in the possession of Mr. Hugh T. Taggart, Mrs. W. S. Jackson, the Misses Morton, Mr. Charles Lanman, Mrs. Geo. V. Morris, Col. John A. Joyce, Mrs. E. D. E. N. Southworth, Mr. Geo. W. King, Mary Baltzer, the Kearneys of avenue, Georgetown College and Mr. John no a the grandson of Henry Fox- An Electric Road to Rockville. The extension of the Bethesda line to Rockville is still being agitated. The connec- tion with this thriving town of Maryland will give it renewed life and prosperity. Much of the trade that now goes to Wash- ington via the Metropolitan branch of the Baltimore and Ohio road, will then, it is thought, come to the District by way of the electric road, it being proposed by the pro- jectors to introduce ampie freight as well as passenger cars. Those most interested are at present endeavoring to secure a free right of way through the territory between the present terminus at Bethesda Park and the objective point. To Ship Ice by the Canal. A new ice company, to work on the streams of western Maryland, has been or- ganized at Hagerstown. The Chesapeake and Ohio canal will be one ef the fields operated upon for storage ice, and the nu- merous neighboring mountain streams will furnish a crystal-like substance for the finer uses. It is proposed by the incorpora- tors to make the plant a large one and ship much of the ice to Georgetown and Washington by way of the canal. This Will introduce # new article of commerce on the canal. Notes. Yesterday's weather brought a horde of seekers after comfort to the varivus char- {table organizations, AN worthy ones were succored. John Ellerson, a colored man, was taken with an epileptic fit yesterday on M street. In falling he cut his head severely. At the 131st monthly meeting of the stockholders of the Citizens’ Equitable dsullding ‘tion, held last night at their hall on 3ist street, $3,543 were sold, being twenty shares at an average of about $16) per share. The Commissioners of the District have sold to Emma L. Yoder an acre tract on the Pierce Mill road, and Mr. Yoder has given the Chevy Chase Land Company a Quit claim deed for the same. Tomorrow Prof. Clara Hines will speak to the students of the Westerg High School, Particularly the young ladies, on physical culture.

A Good Audience Listen to an At- tractive Program, A Wimodaughsis benefit was given last night at National Rifles’ Hall. The audi- ence was large in numbers and in appre- ciation and the entertainment was worthy of the appleuse it received. The program was arranged with credit to the manage- ment and with pleasure to the attendance. Some of the numbers evoked real entiu- siasm. The first part of the program was devoted to musical solos and recitation, and the second part to “The Bachelor and His Wife,” an operatic cantata in three parts, by Mr. Harry Wheaton Howard, adapted from the Anglo-Saxon chronicle, “There was once an old bachelor who lived by him- self.” The evening was opened with a cornet solo by Mr. Elphonzo Youngs, jr., who played with remarkable cleverness, and won rich tributes of praise. The second number was a soprano solo, the Bolero from Verdi's “Sicilian Vespers,” by Miss Mary Helen Howe. Her voice was heard to ex- cellent advantage, and the clearness of her etunciation, fullness of tone and accuracy of phrasing added to the reputation which this young lady is fast acquiring. Her many friends will watch her career with interest. Mr. Lee Crandall, jr. played Wieniaswski's “" and proved him- self a young violinist of great promise. It was an ambitious selection, but the player handled it with calmness, ease and skill. Mr. Warren Young, was compelled to re- spond to an encore for his pleasing rendi- tion of Mr. H. W. Howard's songs, “Spring Time” and “Joel and I.” Miss Ada Town- send concluded the first part with the dra- matic recitation, “Wild Grapes.” “The Bachelor” was given with a dash which showed the talent and intelligence of the children and the care which had been bestowed upon their training. The cantata afforded them adequate opportuni- ty to display their abilities: Miss Lottie Schultz assumed the role the Little Would- be Wife, at very short notice, because of the illness of little Miss Marie Howe, who made such an impression in the juvenile Pinafore. Miss Schultz performed her dif- fieult task with grace and favor. The sing- ing of Misses Clara Moran, Helen Noble and Clara Cassell, and Masters Harry Campbell and Sylvester Cassell, was all that could be asked. The choruses were full and strong and the pleasing melodies of the composition were all well rendered. In the third part there was danced an Irish ig by Master Willie Collier and Miss Annie May O'Toole, which created great enthu- ingm. The chorus of little would-be wives 1a Nttle old bachelors was composed of Vivien Cameron, 4.illian Creamer, Claudia Gales: Charlotte Gridley, Eva Grassart, Carrie Hastings, Helen Hastings, Ethel Howell, Roberta Lackland, Edith Stowell, Mabel Vay Horn, Virgie Wagoner, George Bliss, Willie Brown, Edmund Finch, Edgar Mason, Eddie Rea, Irving Rea, Harry Rich- mond, John Sthutz, Garnett Smith, Olinus Smith, Welling Stier and Frank Tucker. Mr. Halstead P. Hoover was an efficient ac- companist. Aftar the operetta dancing was indulged in. —_——— THE WHEAT SUPPLY. Senator Pettigrew Wants Some Om- etal Anformation. The resolution introduced in the Senate yesterday Ky Mr. Pettigrew of South Da- kota calls on the Secretary of Agriculture for a statement of all the wheat visible and invisiblé in this country March 1, 18tt, to- gether with the entire wheat crop harvested in this country during that year; the amount of wheat used for food seed purposes be- February 1, 1804; te Scena that will be required for like purposes in this country between February and July 1, 18M, together with the amount ‘Ta price that will surprise you mt of wheat and flour as wheat imported since for a March 1, 1893, with the surplus available for export between February 1 and July 1, 18¥4,after deducting the above amounts from the estimated surplus on March 1, 18%, and the entire wheat crop of that year. The resolution is premised with a state- ment that a number of leading commercial newspapers, like Bradstreet’s Weekly, the Cincinnati Current and others, dispute the reperts of the department relating to the yearly wheat crop of this country and its estimates of the wheat in this country at different periods, usually largely increasing these quantities beyond those published in the department's report and estimates; also that such printed: statements from the un- authorized sources largely contro] the mar- ket price of wheat, reducing its price to American wheat preducers to their great injury if the department's reports and esti- mates are correct.

Mrs. J E. Washington left here yesterday after- noon for her home. | THE LOYAL LEGION. Distinguished Guests at the Annual Banquet held Last Night. The twelfth annual banquet of the Loyal Legion was held last evening at ‘the Ar- lirgton. It was preceded by an informal reception in the pariors, when members and guests renewed old acquaintances and revived old memories. About 9 o'glock the bugle sounded for the march to dinper, and the guests went into the banquet hail, which was tastefully decorated, to the music of the Loyal Legion March,” played by the Marine Band There werg’ forty- three tables, each one handsomely set with ficral pieces. Covers were provided for 385, among whom were the following guests of honor, who were seated at the head table with the officers: Senator Lodge of Senor Mendonca, Brazilian minister; Gen. Lew Wallace, Minister Thurston, Senator thcny Higgins of Delaware, Senator McAdoo of New Jersey, . C. Robinson, U. 8. A., retired: Dr. W. Bartlett of New York Avenue Church, Surgeon General Wyman, £. Denny, Capt. F. V. McNair, Col. Col. Woodruff of Norfolk, Va., Gen. gan, Gen. Vincent and Gen. Absa! ‘The menu bore on the front page @ rep- resentation of the red, white and blue but- ton of the Loyal Legion and an engraving of @ battle scene. On the inner page over the bill of are was a picture of a forage on a poultry house. The last on which were inscribed the toasts of the evening, “as a representation of a midnight ‘army banquet. When the coffee had been served, Gen, Facke, the commander of the Washington coramandery, who also officiated as toast- master, rose to propose the toast to the man at whose death the Order of the Loyal Legion was founded. He was cne of the most beloved of patriots and one of the most honored of American citizens during the long and eventful struggle—Abraham Lincoln. He then introduced the junior Senator from Mussachusetts, who toasted the bay state. A silent toust was then drunk to the “Deceased companions,” and a@ song of the war, which came heme to the heart of every cne, was sung by @ select quartet, “Marching Through Geor- sig.” All joined in the chorus. A poem, en- titted “Reminiscences and Musings of 186%," by Brevet Maj. Marcus 8. Hopkins, late of the Ohio volunteers, was read by E. B. Hay. It was full of wit and humor and was loudly applauded. Senator Man- derson spoke briefly, and there was furs ther singing of patriotic songs. > Changes im the Subsistence Departs meant. By direction of the Secretary of War, the following changes in the stations and dus ties of officers of the subsistence depart> ment are ordered: Maj. Charles P.
