Last Sunday, Mr. Patrick Walsh, the newly appointed Senator from Georgia, paid a visit to Georgetown College, from whose gates he had passed on that day thirty-three years before, to go south at the breaking out of the war of the rebel- lion. Senator Walsh ts one of those men whose ambition to obtain a complete education in college halls was frustrated by the civil war, but who subsequently made up, by the natural vigor of their intellect and char- acter, and extraordinary application, for all deficiencies. Mr. Walsh entered George- town College in September, 1859, intent solely upon “business.” Beginning at the age of nineteen tn one of the lowest classes of the preparatory department, he finished with honor two classes in the first year. The same success attended him in the second year, when he completed the high- est preparatory class and the freshman studies of the college Itself. He had al- ready made arrangements to do the work of the sophomore year during vacation, when the news of the fall of Sumter thrilled the land, and on the 15th of April, 1861, young Walsh left the college and made his way to the south, to enter the ranks of the con- federate army. His subsequent career gives Georgetown a right to be proud of him, as she is of her other sons in high public positions at the national capital. Justice White on the Su- preme bench of the United States, Messrs. Walsh and Roach in the Senate, Mallory, Washington and Settle in the House, and Justice Morris of the Court of Appeals of the Distric. of Columbia, are all “old boys” of Georgetown, | “Gold Filling” (Steurer’s gold in connection | chairmat EXPERTS IN DENTISTRY Union Meeting of the Maryland and Washington Dentists. ‘Two Days’ Session Next Week and a Program Provided That is Full of Interest. ‘The union meeting of the Maryland State Dental Society and the Washington Dental Society will be held in this city on Tuesday and Wednesday of next week.

A Handsome Sum Danced Into the Treasury Last Evening. The policeman’s ball was danced last night at the Light Infantry armory. The pro- ceeds will be applied to the relief fund uf the first precinct, and the receipts were worthy of the object. The all was a fiscal hit, a social success and a :.jumph of pleas- ure and mirth. Hundreds of feet glided gleefully, and hearts beat rapturously to the merry rhythm of the waltz, lancers, schottische and quadrille. The affair was as well ordered and select as the vast ac- quaintance and nice discrimination of the officers would indicate. The decoration of the ball room was all that an artist’s eye could suggest. A wealth of brilliant bunt- ing was draped, woven and festooned into rainbows and bouquets of color, and the in- candescent lamps vied with the luster of the epaulettes and buttons of the officers and the eyes of their wives and sweethearts. It was a glorious time, and the hospitality of the receivers was up to the standard of the metropolitan police force. The grand march was written for this occasion by Prof, Zea- mans and dedicated to Lieut. Amiss. It had @ swing in it which made everybody sway in_unison with it. During the intermission the pupils 6f Mr. and Mrs. W. C. Hinton executed several fancy dances in a manner which reflected credit on the executants and showed the thoroughness of their training. The little folks were Miss Lizzie Rudd, Miss Edith Pirie and Master Joseph Dugan.

The half of a male infant's body was brought to the morgue this morning. It was found floating in Rock creek, near the mother or father of the child or whether some medical student did it is not known. The cutting, though, was artistically done, from a surgical point of view; there was no butchery. The instrument used was a one. The heart and other vital the body proper had not been in disturbed. Officer Howard, who found portion of the child, wrapped it in an bag. The coroner looked at it this A Church Box Robbed. St.John’s Church contribution box, which hangs in the vestibule on the inner side of the big doors, has been robbed. The thief se- cured the contents by picking the lock. It is rot known exactly what was taken, but it is thought the amount approximated $25. It was the congregation’s usual Easter of- fering for the purpose of getting flowers for the church, but owing to the key being in the possession of an absent member, the box was not opened on the termination of the Lenten season. Two or three times depredations of this sort have been com- mitted about the church and a sharp watch for the guilty one is now being kept up. The lock was picked while the sexton at dinner, A Narrow Escape.

The monthly meeting of the Sunday School Union of the District had the above | theme for its addresses last evening. The meeting was held in the new Sunday school house of Calvary Baptist Church. Mr. P. H. Bristow, superintendent of Cal- vary Sunday school, and first vice presi- dent of the union, presided, with Mr. Percy S. Foster as precentor and Miss Fox at the piano. After prayer by Mr. Jerome F, Johnson, superintendent of First Congrega- tional Sunday school, the chairman, on be- half of Calvary Sunday school, delivered a brief address of welcome, and then called on Miss Lelia R. Nowlin, teacher of the primary department of Trinity P. E. Sun- day school, who read an interesting paper, entitled, “Improvements in Methods.” Mr. W. H. H. Smith, superintendent of the Western Presbyterian Sunday school, and leader of the Y. M. C. A. teachers’ meeting, was the next speaker, and talked interestingly of some of the things which could not be improved on and some of the so-called teachers who needed improve- ment. Mrs. Ulalie Domer-Rheem then sang “Abide With Me,” after which Rev. J. E. Gilbert, D. D., secretary of the American Society of Religious Education, was intro- duced and made the principal address of the evening, setting forth the improved methods of study and of teaching aimed at by his society’s “Sunday Teachers’ Club,” recently organized in this city. He intro- duced Rev. Augustus Davisson as an agent of the club, who would visit the Sunday schools of the city to raise funds to meet its expenses, and called on Mr. Edwin Wil- lits, who made a brief address, indorsing Dr, Gilbert and his plans. At the close of the program the company was conducted through the various rooms of the Calvary Sunday school house, all parts of which were thrown open and lighted for inspec- tion. The Sunday schools represented at the meeting included the following: Calvary, First, Grace and Northwest Mission Bap- tist; First, Fifth, and Mount Pleasant Con- gregational; New York Avenue, North, As- sembly, Fourth, Metropolitan and Gurley Presbyterian; Foundry, Fifteenth Street, Hamline, McKendree and Douglass Me- morial Methodist Episcopal; St. Paul's En- glish Lutheran; Trinity and Ascension Pro- testant Episcopal, and Grace Reformed. ———.—_—_ Little Surprise Created.
