Wednesday will mark the semi-centennial of the organization of the Y. M. C. A., an institution that now has branches in every quarter of the globe. On the 6th of June, 1844, the society was founded in London, but as yesterday was Sunday it was fixed upon as the day for commemorating what has proved to be a most important and auspicious event. Yesterday was Jubilee Sunday all over the world and probably at every Y. M. C. A. there were appropriate services held. In this city they were held in the gymna- 1 hall of the ¥. M. C. A. building on New York avenue. The exercises were opened with prayer and song and the ad- dress of the oceasion was delivered by Rev. W. C. Alexander, pastor of the West Street Presbyterian Church. His remarks were addressed espectally to young men, but treated at length of the history, growth and work of the association. After an eloquent opening Mr. Alexander commented on the organization of the society in London when Sir George Williams met with some other young men to form a society for mutual religious training and instruction. In Lon- don there are now seventy branch socteties and less than ten years from the organiza- tion of the first one others were foundsd in Montreal, Boston, Buffalo and Washing. ton in that order. There are many subdi- visions of the society, Mr. Alexander said, but the two most important among many deserving mention were the Railroad and the College Y. M. C. A's. The benefit of the latter in raising the moral tone of the col- leges or universities of the country, he satd, had been inestimable, and the value of the railroad branch could be argued from the contribution of $200,000 per year made to its support by the so-called soulless corpora- tions. The growth of the Y. M. C. A. in the col- leges of the country, Dr. Alexander thought, had been one of the things that had done more than anything else for the puritica- tior of amateur athletics, of which he was in favor, and helped to build up strong, healthy and courageous men for the service of the world after they had left the double training school of mind and body. In conclusion the speaker alluded to the famous words of Cardinal Manning lately given out from the phonograph’ record in j London, “I hope that no written or spoken word of mine during my life may do harm to any of my fellow-men after my death That, the speaker said, was one of the sen- timents which was the aim of the Y. M. C. A. to cherish in the breasts of all its mem- bers. ————___. Brodie’s blook at Burlington, burned last night.

ENCOURAGING SIGNS Continued Growth of Interest in the Pythian-Encampment. ARRANGING THE CAMP GROUNDS osit — ee Additional Money Coming in From the Collections. ‘THE CAMP PRIVILEGES i ——— Pythian matters are on the move. From indications at headquarters’ this morning the busiest of the subcommittees were those on public comfgrt and on camp and camp ground. The latter is especially busy just now in considering plans and proposi- tions for tenting the 18,000 uniformed knights who are expected to attend. The public comfort committee is engaged in the work of insuring proper accommodations for the throngs of sisters, cousins and aunts, and the ordinary pilgrims who are going to use the encampment and conven- tion and cheap railfoad fares as an excuse to see the sights of Washington. The plan of the camp, as submitted by Chairman Notley Anderson, has been approved by the committee, and ‘has been sent to Col. John M. Wilson, commissioner of public buildings and grounds, for his approval. The plan comprehends the occupancy of thirty acres, more or less, of the mall im- mediately surrounding the monument. Around the shaft will be drawn a circle, within which no tent shall be placed. The line is to girdle the monument at a dis- tance of 300 feet from the base. The tented field will Be bounded on the east by Mth Street, on the north by B street, and on the south and west by the driveway which passes to the eastward of the fish ponds and to the northward of the propagating grounds and the bureau of printing and engraving. The camp will be platted off into division avenues, which will bear the names of the several states. These avenues will converge toward the monument. The headquarters tent will be at the southwest corner of the camp and nearly in front of the bureau of engraving and printing. The camp will accommodate 18,000 soldiers of the order. The committce having in charge this end of the program has already en- tered into a contract with a Columbus, Ohio, firm for 22 tents, with the privilege of ordering 1,06) more at the same rate should the occasion arise for thetr us¢. As a rule, four men will be quartered in each tent, but this rule will be subject to variations. The Prize Drill. The dress parade of the Uniform Rank will also be held in the White Lot, on about the same ground used during the interstate drill, There has been a proposition to hold the competitive drills of the Uniform Rank on the same territory as that used by the National Guardsmen, but Gen. Carnahan has advised the executive committee that the best results in drill cannot be produced on the grass, It is stated that the men are apt to sifp, especially If the sward be dry, and that after having been well trodden it becomes too soft for drill purposes. There- fore, the competition between the drill teams will take place at the base ball grounds in Northeast Washington. Another reason why the latter site is an advanta- geous one ts that it is already fenced in, thus enabling the committee to set an ad- mission fee. It is proposed to assess spec- tators twenty-five cents for an admission and twenty-five cents extra for reser seats. It is thought that this will produce considerable revenue. At some encamp- ments, it is said, members of the Un:form Rank have been allowed the freedom of the drill grounds, but it is thought that this rule will not be followed here. It has been decided as soon as the plan of the camp shail have been approved by Col, Wilson, to have a wood cut made from the plan, and to circulate pictures liberalfy throughout the land. not seem able to grasp the fdea that they will be allowed to camp directly within the city. The magnificent distances of Wash- ington are too much for the uninitiated American. Inquiries are constantly coming in a8 to how far the camp ts from the ¢! with Washington, and whether the camp will be convenient to hotels at which the families and the friends of the campers will be accommodated. At the last m-eting of the camp committee a large number of in- quirfes were read on this iine by Secretary MeNabb. The Flag Pote. ‘The matter of a flag pole is one of the live topics at committee headquarters. Knight A. S. Belote of Capitol Lodge has offered to furnish a seventy-five-foot pole, halyards, guy lines and all necessary tackle and rigging, for $77, and to set it at cost, which the Chesapeake and Ohio Telephone Company has estimated will be $0. Little- field & Alvord have suggested that they could furnish and set a first-class stick for S100, At the last meeting of the committee hav- ing this matter in charge it was stated that pole which the knights might borrow for the occaston. It would be necessary to paint and rig it, but this might be done for & very small sum. It was decided to com- muni with Col, John M. Wilson on this matter. The colonel has manifested such a marked disposition to help the good cause along that the committeemen felt confident that he will spare them the expense of buy- ing a pole. They Are Coming. A communication has been recetved from Mr. John M. Crouse expressing a desire to secure the exclusive privilege of running a barber shop in che camp. Mr, A. C. Colum- bus has written to the committee offering to give 25 per cent of his gross receipts for the privilege of conducting a photograph gallery in the grounds. He stated that he would also make a picture of the executive committee and present said committee with thirty copies of the group. This was a pleasing proposal. Another applicant is willing to pay $100 for the right of taking pictures in the camp. that the better plan to dispose of these questions is to advertise the privileges and let them to the highest bidder. Communications have been received as fol- lows since the last tssue of The Star from people representing Pythian bodies, indicat- ing that their commands will be in Wash- ington in August: Charles Shem, jr., captain Yellow Cross division, No. 85, Alliance, Ohio.

The committees are anxious to have bodies which contemplate making the trip to Washington send in their orders for quarters at the earliest hour possible, so that satisfactory provision can be made for them. Col. Hege, passenger agent of the Balti- more and Ohio-railroad, was at corfimittee headquarters this forenoon for conference with Secretary Percy G. Smith. He stated that the rates would probably be anneunced this week, or certainly next. It was also the understanding that low rates had already been named on many of the far western road: Gen. John’ E. Smith, secretary of the transportation committee, was in receipt this morning of an interesting batch ‘of cor- respondence bearing on the important ques- tion of railroad fares. Gen. Smith has been in correspondence with the bigrest railroad officials of the land and has had several conferences with some of them. He Is satisfied with the progress which is being made and looks for an early settlement of the problem. Among the letters which he received today were those from Bernard F. Knight, secretary to the General Traffic Association, with headquarters at Chicago; Commissioner Tucker of the Chicago and Ohio Traffic Association; Chairman Caldwell of the Western Passenger Association, and General Passenger Agent Wood of the Penn- Terre dutstders do } with | the government has a good ninety-five-foot | It is thought today | sylyania raflroad.
