It was held at the residence of Mr. J. G. | Waters, on 34th street. In the absence of | Mr, F. L. Moore, the president, who is naw |in Florida, but expected home in a few ‘days, and of the vice president, Mr. Thomas H. Looker, Mr. John Marbury call- ed the meeting to order and presided. The report of the secretary was read and dis- } cussed, and the amount in the treasury shown. The office of the secretary of char- | ities, which heretofore has been closed to seekers after assistance, on the Ist of | April was ordered by the board to he kept | open for at least another month. This is in consequence of the continued scarcity of | work and the want which follows such a condition of things. Mr. B. T. Janney was requested to con- sult with Mr. Emery of the Washington branch of the charities, for the purpose of seeing whether or not there was anything due Georgetown from the wholesale collec- tions of some months ago. | A regular line of callers daily presents it- self at Secretary Davis’ office, and much is needed to answer the requests for assist- ance made. Contributions are required to Keep the good work going on. Anything used by man, woman or child for the main- tenance of life and health is acceptable at the office. At the meeting last night those who dis- | cussed the condition of the poor and devised means for its betterment were Mr. H. F. | Blount, Mr. John Marbury, Maj. Bates, Mr. |B. T. Janney, Mrs. Samuel Waters, Mr. | Joseph W. Davis, Mr. J. G. Waters and others. The next meeting will be held at the residence of Mr. John Marbury. Bicyclers’ Club House.

The building is a new brick and located at 2502 M street. It will be furnished throughout and taken possession of by the | 15th of the present month. While occupy- ing this they will be on the lookout for still better quarters, it being their desire to find a house near Georgetown with grounds suitable to pleasure in. The suc- cess of their late fair has enabled them to be a little fastidious in this matter. Their large contribution to the track fund has caused renewed activity among the pro- moters of that enterprise. A solid founda- tion has been laid and the walls will be | pected from several large entertainments, excursions and so forth, now under con- sideration. All available large lots in the vicinity have been carefully inspected by the locating committee, and in all proba- | bility one on the west side of the creek, | beyond the city limits and readily accessi- | ble, will be the choice of all concerned. It is beautifully located, level and ample in | Size. It is thought that the track will not | only increase vastly the interest in cycling, but also be a financial success, it being the intention of the wheelmen to hold meets, local, state and national contests thereon. It will probably be run by a stock company, composed of wheelmen, every one in the District being allowed to sub- scribe. Tracks in other cities are big successes, and a local one, it is thought, cannot help, with proper management, from being profitable in many ways. Tomorrow the Georgetown Cyclists will leave 14th and Boundary streets at 5:30 a.m. on a cen- tury run, Frederick will be the fifty point. It is expected to make the entire 100 1ailes in thirteen hours, City Consolidation, The Georgetown people are somewhat cu- rious to know why such usually progressive citizens as the presidents of the four title companies have protested against the con- solidation of Georgetown with Washington. It has been explained to The Star that the action of these gentlemen is occasioned by feared complications of their records, by reason of the duplication of the squares in the two places. Georgetown thinks that smart lawyers shculd be able to cope with a situation of this kind, should the change be made. They say that if Congress should pass a law cali- ing the two cities Georgetown that their lawyers would be able to prevent any con- fusion of records occasioned thereby. Is | not this a trivial reason, they say, for pre- venting what is regarded as a progressive movement? Real Estate. Samuel T. Williams yesterday sold to Edgar J. Hulse part of lot 53, in P. B.

Bert Haislop, a German residing near Tenleytown, was arrested yesterday, and charged with disorderly conduct, carrying concealed weapons and assault and bat- \tery. Haislop made himself objectionable to the law in a church at Tenleytown. He tcok offense at some word or action of Nutley Robertson of Georgetown, watched his opportunity and slashed him with a razor. The German's victim is cut very severely, and will probably be unable for some days to appear against his attacker. Boxing Contesis. Joe Rateman of this place and the cham- | pion feather-weight of the District will meet Jack Kelly, the Wilmington, Del “Wonder,” on next Tuesday evening, in special bout of ten rounds at the “Country Club,” on the Bladensburg road, near High- land station, ~ Two other scientific glove contests are announced for the same night; one between Billy Nally, also of Georgetown, and Fred. Moore of Wilmington, Del. They will stand before each other for six rounds, at 140 pounds. The third contest of the occasion will be between two colored men, Jim Jaynie of Washington, D. C., and Sam Gray of Phila- deiphia, Pa. These men will also fight at 140 pounds. Linthicum Students. The C. A.

Ritter, the clever dialect “business” of G. W. Winslow, the recitations of T. O. Pulizzi and C. Balinger’s gems of “Dar- Keyism” will all be numbers of excellence. “Poisoned,” a comedietta, and “The Close Shave,” a convulsing farce, will be the principal features of the program. A good orchestra will be in attendance, Notes. New sewer connections have been made with Curtis School. The old pipes had been penetrated at the joints by the trees on the grounds surrounding the building, and the passage of water completely blocked.
