A Large and Distinguished Concourse Gathered Yesterday About the Coffin of the Dead Editor. The funeral of the late Frank Hatton took Place yesterday afternoon from the fam- fly residence on Hillyer street. The was a large concourse of mourners gath- ered around the coffin, comprising the most distinguished men of the country, who had gathered to pay the sad final tribute to one whose value to them as a friend was no less than it was to the community in which he had lived and labored. The ser- vices at the house were brief and simple. The quartet of the Gridiron Club, consist- ing of Messrs. Morsell, Hoover, Kaiser and Mosher, were joined by Mrs. Morsell and Miss Blanche Mattingly in singing “Lead, Kindly Light.” Bishop Hurst of the Metho- dist Church read the burial service and of- fered up a feeling prayer. He did not evlogize Frank Hatton. He did not speak of the royal qualities of heart and soul and mind that made the dead man marked among his fellows and the idol of his friends. To tell these things to the gathering that crowded around the man's coffin would have been unnecessary, for his epitaph was graven in the hearts of each in words more glowing than priestly lips could utter. There were none in ail that great crowd whose presence was im- pelled through motives of duty or conven- nal respect. The Tribute of Affection, Cabinet officers, Senators, Congressmen, men distinguished in politics, statecraft and letters, and the flower of the profession which the dead man had done so much to advance in its aspirations and accomplish- ments, were all attracted to the coffin side by the love they had borne the deceased and the unspeakable grief they felt at his departure. It seemed impossible to them that one who had been but a few short days ago the personification of bright hu- mor and full of gay banter and gentle playfulness should be lying cold and pulse- less among them. Nat Goodwin, the actor, perhaps voiced the feeling of the entire assemblage when he look down upon the pallid face of the dead man and mur- mured, “Good-bye, Frank; I can’t believe it.” And so through lines of loving friends his body was borne to the hearse by the men who knew him best and therefore loved him most, for intimacy with Mr. Hat- ton always increased the admiration felt for him by those who enjoyed it. The active pall-bearers were Managing Editor Bone, City Editor Walker, Foreman Hinton, Mr. Frank Pearce, Mr. John D. O'Connor and Mr. Harry L. Merrick. As the coffin was placed in the hearse the Gridiron Club in a-body stood at the side of the vehicle, while the street and sidewalk were filled with an uncovered assembly that stood with bowed heads as the mortal re- mains of their friend were slow! borne to their last iting place Rock Creek cemetery. The floral offerings which were sent to the house were nu- merous and magnificent, but the most significant of them was, per! the tribute from the printers on the Post. It was a printer’s stick made of red and white carnations, and on its center was “30,” the good night signal, so familiar to every compositor and newspaper man throughout the western hemisphere. — RELIGIOUS EDUCATION. The Society for Its Promotion Met Yesterday. ‘There was a meeting of prominent men and women of Washington yesterday at Columbian University to consider the in- terests of the American Society of Religious Education. Dr. Edwin Willits, late assist- ant secreary of agriculture, presided. Dr. Gilbert gave an account of the society, its purposes and plans. He said there were five fraternities in the organization. The Sunday Teachers’ Club is composed of Su day school teachers, the Bible Readers’ Union is made up of individuals who desire to engage in the private study of Scripture for spiritual profit, the Child Culture Club is designed to aid parents in training chil- dren, and the Students’ Bible Club is for young people in college. The fifth fraterni- ty, the Fellows’ Club, is composed of schol- ars who provide the courses of study for the other clubs, and who suggest the plans for constant improvement of the methods. Addresses were made by Gen. Eaton and Dr. Beiler, and resolutions were passed in- dorsing the society, and seventeen new names were presented for membership in the Fellows’ Club. This will form the nu- cleus of the Washington circle of the club. —_s—— He Was Guilty. The case of the negro James Allen, charged with a felonious assault on Cora Simpson, an eleven-year-old gitl, in Prince George’s county, was tried yesterday in Annapolis, as printed in yesterday’s Star, and late in the afternoon a verdict was reached. The assault was committed in February last near the home of the child's Parents, not far from the village of Wood- more, while the child was on her way home from school. When the prisoner was taken to the Marlboro’ jail the feeling was so strong against him that he was brought to this city, and then removed to Baltimore to prevent the citizens from taking the law in their own hands. At the hearing yesterday the little vic- tim appeared and told her version of the affair, fully identifying the prisoner. An attempt was made by the mother and si ter of Allen to prove an alibi, but it evi- dently had no weight with the jury, for a verdict of guilty was rendered. The penalty in the case may be death or imprisonment. When the facts in the case were made known in court some threats of lynching were made, but ft is thought the law will be permitted to take its course. Sentence in the case was suspended until today, —.---— Marriage Licenses. The clerk of the court has issued licenses to wed to the following: William Laws and Rachael Payne; Julian A.

During the past two years Sanitary In- spector Beaumont, who has been koking after the hogs in the more dersely populated suburbs of the city, has succeeded in get- ting rid of more than 500 of the animals, and consequently a proportionate number of offensive odor-giving places have been gotten rid of. Now the inspector will de- vote his attention to cow sheds and slaugh- ter houses, it being the intention of the health officials to have such places kept in good order and to have all unlawfully located places of the same kind removed. Unclean and filthy slaughter houses any- where in the District are declared nuisances, and it is a violation of law to have such place located within 150 yards of a Jwelling house. Concerning cows and cow yards, it is un- lawful for any person to keep e than ) two cows within the city limits, «nd then | they are to be kept for family ase end not for dairy purposes. Such stables are not permitted within 200 feet of any house other than that of the owner or Keeper of the cows. And where cows are kept in the city the law requires the removal of the manure every day. —_.+—__ Henry Bush Insane.

Mr. H. P. Hoover has been the plano accompanist. The sale of seats has been going on for some time and the box sheet indicates that there will be a good house at every performance. i The Kneisel Quartet Tonight.—The pro- gram for the concert by the Kneisel Quar- tet at the Universalist Church tonight has been arranged to show the historical de- velopment of the string quartet. The first composition is by Dittersdorf, who was born in 1737, and is one of the earliest string quartets still retained in the concert repertoire. It has been recently revived in this country by Mr. Kneisel and his asso- clates and its beauties have everywhere been recognized. The program closes with the quartet by Dvorak, on American themes, written only last summer, in this country, and played from the manusc! presented to Mr. Kneisel by the composer. Between these two, representing the earliest and th latest schools, movemens will be played from Cherubini, Beethoven and Grieg, which will show the progress of harmonic construction during the inter- vening peroid. Mr. Kneisel and Mr. Schroe- der will also be heard in solos. No concert more interesting to those who care for the most refined form of music has been heard this season. Harry Fisk’s Benefit—The Tuxedo Club of Chicago, who have been spending the winter here and appearing at private’ re- ceptions, musicales, &c., last night went to Albaugh's Theater in a body and volunteer- ed to play for the benef, of Harty C. Fisk on Saturday night. The club is a quartet, and will be seen at their best advantage on_ this occasion. The Contagious Hospital Concert.--Amon; the attractive entertainments for this week non appeal more to the public for ensour- agment or support than the concert to be given by the Johns Hopkins Banjo and Mandolin Club at evening, under the auspices of th Chain,. for the benefit of the Hospital: for Contagious Diseases. The little children composing the Daisy Chain have been work- ing incessantly, picking up few dollars here and there, and by occasional private and public entertainments and donations have, according to the report of the treas- urer, Mrs. Archibald Hopkins, made at the last meeting held at the Norwood Institute, accumulated $8,991.26. The failure to secure. a site, as noted in The Star, while disap- pointing, has not dampened their ardor, and the good work will be continued. No doubt a large audience will be present at the concert. no more from the fact that it is for so deserving an object than that a most excellent and enjoyable program will be presented. ? Harris’ Orchestra Benefit—A pleasing pro- gram was presented at the benefit to the orchestra of Harris’ Bijou Theater last evening. The affair proved a complete and was thoroughly enjoyable throughout. Those who participated were Misg Madeline Turnbird, Mme. J. Esputa Daly, Mrs. Watson Smith, Mr. Lucius Ran- dolph, Dr. John A.

President Babson of the East Washington Citizens’ Association had before him last night a large number of congressiona! bills, giving his desk the appearance of one.of the desks in the halls of Congress. There were but few members present at the meet- ing, probably because of the warm weather. After reading of the minutes of the last meeting, by Secretary Sperry, President Babson said that the executive committee had no formal report to-make. He desired to say, however, that the committee meets every Tuesday evening at his house, 106 llth street. He said he hoped the chairmen of the different committees would attend these meetings. President Babson called attention to the work of the association concerning the parks and public spaces, and the reclama- tion of the Eastern branch flats. These® this special sale. questions,he said, were taking the time of the executive committee, and if they did nothing else but properly attend to these matters, they would be fully repaid for the time con- sumed. Concerning the question of re- claiming the flats, Mr. Babson said that the Secretary of War responded promptly to a communication sent him, and fnclosed copies of Col. Hains’ report, made in De- cember, 1891, as well as other reports. The president announced that Mr. W. C. Dodge had been appointed chairman of the committee on lights, water and sewer, and he thought the selection an excellent one for the reason that Mr. Dodge had done so much fighting for cheaper gas. Gen. Ord- way, he said, had also been added’ to the commisee, Gen. S. S. Yoder, he sald, had been added to the committee on health, police and charities, and he thought the association was to be congratulated on the selecticn of Gen. Yoder, who is a physician. Mr. Hugh T. Taggart and Evan H. Tucker were mi members of the committee on reclamation of the Eastern branch flats. President Bab- son and Mr. Wines both spoke in highest terms of Mr. Taggart, whose knowledge of the flats, they thought, would make him a valued member of the committee. Gen. Birney, chairman of the committee, Mr. Babson said, had made great headway in examining the title to the flats, and com- plete reports, he thought, would be made at the next meeting. There were no reports of committees to be received, as the chairmen of most of them were absent. Professor Conrad said he had talked with Gen. Yoder about the committee work, and he thought a complete report would be mada on the contagious diseases that ‘had be prevalent, mentioning scarlet fever and consumption, and the committee will en- deavor to ascertain just what part of East Washington has been affected and learn, if possible, the best preventive, and also see what the health office is doing toward tak- ing the proper precautionary measures, Mrs. Emily Briggs asked for information concerning the progress of the work on the assessment bill, and President Babson re- ferred her to the minutes of the last meet- ing. There being no new business to transact, the association adjourned. -_ Fer a Sunday School Library.
