THE EVENING STAR, “FRIDAY, AUGUST 81; 1894—TEN PAGES. == NO PAY FOR LABOR DAY. District Per Diem Employes. Must ‘Work for Their Money. Mr. S. T. Thomas, attorney for the Dis- trict, in an opinion rendered to the Com- missioners today, holds that District labor- ers are not entitled to pay on Labor day urless they work on-that day. The opinion was called forth by a com- munication, a few days ago, signed “A Mechanic,” who anxiously inquired 4f me- chanics and laborers employed by the Dis- trict of Columbia would receive pay on Labor day if they did not work on that day. Attorney Thomas in his opinion say: “The act of Congress approved June 28, 1804, entitied ‘An act making Labor day a legal holiday,’ declares that the first Mon- day in September in each year, being the day celebrated as labor’s holiday, is hereby made a legal public holiday to ail intents and purposes, in the same manner as Christmas, the Ist day of January, the 2 day of February, the 30th of May and the Fourth of July are now by law made pub- lic_holidays. “It will be observed that the law is silent on the question of pay. It results that laborers on the District rolls who are paid by the day ere no more entitied to pay on Labor day than they are on other legal public holidays. My opinion is that District latorers are not eatitled to pay on Labor day unless they work on that day.” ~~ SUNDAY SHAVING. The First Case Tricd Failed of Con- viction. Strangers who reach this city on Sunday are often disappointed when they go in search of a barber shop for the purpose of getting shaved or having the railroad soot cleaned from their heads. ‘The law closes these places on Sunday, although it permits other places, excepting saloons, to keep cpen. At some of the hotels the law is violated every Sunday, but the doors are guarded with the care exercised at the “speak-easies” in “Bloodfield.” Last Sun- day was an exception to the general rule, end the visiting Pythians were able to get @ hair cut or shave, and make themselves presentable after their long journey. But Tow the police are after the proprietors of the places, and about thirty of them are to be taken into court for violating the Sun- day law. ‘The first case called for trial was that of Milton E. Simms, a Mth street barber. He plead not guilty. Policeman Gelabert was the prosecuting witness in the case, but he failed to substantiate the charge, and Simms was acquitted. faa SYLVAN SANCTUARY. Yesterday Was the Last Fall Day of the Camp Meet Correspondence of the Evening Star. + WASHINGTON GROVE, Md., August 30, 1894 The last full day of the camp meeting bas been the great day of the feast. Since the beginning nature seems to have done her best to give the people an inspiration. The day was ushered in with a slight shower, attended with lightning and thun- der, but at sunrise it had gone by and the day was a golden one. The most inspiring service of theday was the 9 o'clock testi- mony meeting. It was led today by L. T. Widerman, and was a blessed service to all who attended. This was pre-eminently county day, and the largest attendance of the ten-days’ series assembled here. They were gather- ing in all day, and the concourse in the evening was gteater than. that of the Sab- bath. A large congregation ‘greeted Dr. A. E. Gibson at the morning service... He preach- ed a sermon of power from the words “What Shall 1 Do to Be Saved?” In re- sponse to the earnest appeal several sought salvation at the altar, and professed con- version. All the afternoon services were solemn and deeply impressive, as the closing scenes usually are. The congregation that overflowed the temple assembled at 6:30 p.m. to partici- pate in the last vesper service of the young people, which has been made so profitable and attractive by the efforts of Rev. W. W. Van Arsdale and Chorister James Dyre. The ringing of the tabernacle bell at 7:45 p.m. brought into the circle-a large con- course, who failed to secure seats at the evening worship, so great was the audi- ence. Dr. L. T. Widerman preached a con- vincing and pungent sermon from Acts, 17:30, “God Commandeth Ali Men Every- where to Repent,” and mightily stirred the souls of his hearers, and severa]. penitents sought conversion. Dr. H. R. Naylor of Baltimore was im attendance upon the services, having arrived earlier in the even- ing. He was enthusiastically welcomed by all here, where he is so tenderly beloved. He will conduct the morning service, with which the camp will formally close. Dr. Wm. H. Laney, the venerable bell- ringer in camp, has been at his post since the first, but was called home today and left by an evening train. John Blair of Boston, Mass., arrived last evening on a visit to his niece, Miss Helen Chew. Mr. Chew accompanied him and spent the evening visiting friends on the circle. Misses Beulah and Willie Ward will leave for Berkeley, W. Va., on Monday to enter the second year’s course at the semi- nary in that place. Mrs. Lord of New York is the guest of Mrs. Gee of Grove avenue. Mrs. Bowen Turpin came to the Grove this morning, and is stopping with her mother, Mrs. G. T. Woodward. Miss Dodds, accompanied by her cousin, Miss Lucy Miriam, left the Grove yesterday for a visit to Hyattsville, where they will be guests at the home of Mrs. J. D. Ogden, a sister of Miss Miriam. Mrs. May Padgett of Frederick is ex- pected today to visit Mrs, Gus. Jones of 2d avenue. Mrs. Ada Leech, wife of Dr. Olin Leech, is here, and her contralto voice gives much pleasure. She sang, by request, at the afterncon revival service, and many were moved to tears by the sympathetic tones of the sweet singer. Wm. Palmer has returned to camp and delighted the evening audience with a solo, “We Then Shall Understand.” Owen Owens and family of Randolph, Md., were in attendance upon the evening services. Ley. Hoskinson of Philadelphia, who has been visiting relatives here, leaves for home today. Mrs. 8. D. La Fetra ts here, and is spend- ing a few days at the cottage home of Mrs. Robert Cohen. Dr. Winter and family are registered at the Albany. Among the visitors of today were Misses Evie and Kate Howard of Brookville, Md., Miss Beulah White, Miss Mabel Shaw, George Henderson, H. Maurice Talbott, Miss Rosalie Bouic and sister of Rockville, Md., Washington Ctssell of West Washing- ton, Miss Bessie Israel of Washington. Mrs. Etta Bains is the guest of her mother, Mrs. B. T. Steinmetz of Grove avenue. —_—>— A Disorderly House Raided. Sergt. Mocre an@ Policemen Hunt and Mellen surprised the occupants of a house on 10th street northwest, a few doors above H street last night, and made an arrest which gratified the residents of the other houses. The character of the house had been questioned by neighbors and com- plaint had been made to the police. A woman in the house screamed “murder” several times and when the officers went to the house and knocked at the door the persons in the house refused to open the door. Sergt. Moore assisted the other offi- cers in gettirg through the window and they opened the door for him. Then the police made what they call a raid. In one room, the officers say, they found a prom- inent member of the bar and a female, who was at ene time a clerk in the pension office. The proprietress of the house, Mrs. Jennie Moriess, was arrested on a charge of keeping a disorderly house. The lawyer and his female friend were not summoned as witnesses. There was a charge of disorderly house preferred against the woman in the Police Court today and the case was continued for ten days. Mrs. Moriess gave her personal bonds for her appearance. nd $1.25 to Baltimore and Return $1.25 via B. and 0. R.R. The Baltimore and Ohio R. R.

A NEW CHURCH To Be Dedicated at Leicester, Near Bowle, ‘Md. The beautiful new Church of the Ascen- sion at Leicester, near Bowie, Prince George's county, Md., on the B. and P. rail- road, is now completed and will be dedi- cated Sunday, September 9, at 10:30 a.m The ceremonies of the dedication will be performed by Cardinal Gibbons. Solemn high mass will be celebrated by Rev. J. Havens Richards, president of Georgetown University, assisted by Rev. A. Coppens, 8. J., also of Georgetown University, as deacon, and Rev. P. J. McGinney, 8. J., of Gonzaga College as subdeacon. A choir of twenty-five trained voices, under the leadership of Miss Annie Hol- Ichan, will furnish the music for the oc- cesion, The sermon will be preached by Rev. Wm. O'B. Pardow, 8S. J., provincial of the Maryland and New York province. ‘The new church, now known as the Church of the Ascension, has been erected on a one-acre lot donated by the Leicester own Company. It is near Bowie and stands about 150 yards from the railroad running from Baltimore to Washington, The architect was Mr. Thus. C. Kennedy of Baltimere and the builder Mr, Emanuel Bunty of McSherrytown, Pa, The church is Gothic in design, ninety feet long by forty-four feet wide, with a tower ninety feet high. The foundation is of stone and the superstructure is of the. best Georgia and North Carolina framing material. The exterior presents a most im- pesing appearance, and the whole structure undoubtedly is the finest Catholic church in Prince George's county. The interior closely agrees with the architectural style of the exterior, The ceiling is forty feet high and is arched. The walls and ceiling are finished in plaster. The altar is quite handsome and is the historic altar that stood m the old Gecrgetown Chapel for over 100 years, Over the choir gallery is a large window in seventeen sections, beautifully ornamented with imitation of stained glass called “gla- cler.” This window was presented by Mrs. Margaret Curtin of Washington in memory of her deceased husband. The side windows are quite large and are ornamented with “glacier.” This church has been made the possessor of a superb ofl painting through the munifi- cence of Mr. George Menke of Washington, who generously donated it, with a magnifi- cent frame and all, to Rev. M. A, Noel, S. J., the pastor. The subject is the ascen- sion and was especially ordered as an altar- piece for this church through Father Ar- mellini, the Jesuit art critic of Rome. Prof. Pacelli, the distinguished Koman artist, was chosen to execute the work and was guided by the admirable design of one of the ob- long tapestries in the Vatican Hall Degli Avazzi. The size is extraordinary, being twelve feet wide and fifteen feet high, but even with these magnificent proportions there is a wonderful delicacy of finish in every figure and detail. The composition is extremely impressive, and in the variety of altitudes and features of the cleven aposties there is a convergence to perfect unity, cul- minating in the predominant figure of Christ. The blending of color and tint is exquisite and pleases the eye at first glance. To insure it against alterations by time the artist coated the canvas with tela a gesso and double colored it, so that the painting will ever remain fresh. A glimpse alone of this masterpiece is worth a visit to Bowle. It will be unveiled on the day of the church's dedication.

There has beem a discharge of between four and five hun@reé people from the gov- ernment printing effiee. This reduction wis meade necessary am aecount of the adjourn- ment of Congress, and, besides, work is being sent to the «printing office. more slowly than ever tefore. The removals were mainly compositors, although there were many f-om»=<the folding and binding divisions. Although the discharges were only made on Wednesday might, many had their friends call at the printing office yesterday in the hope of securing a reconsideration. All were, however, disappointed, for Mr. Benedict was out of town. Anticipating the pressure that would be brought to bear upon him, Mr. Benedict has issued the fol- lewing notice: “In view of the pressing demands on my time, in connection with the printing and binding work of the office, I will be unable to see personally other than employes of the office and persons on matters relating to departmental and congressional printing for the two weeks following this date. “All matters concerning appointments will receive due consideration if commu- nicated in writing. “TH. E. BENEDICT, Public Printe: Mr. Benedict finds it absolutely neces- sary to take this course, because he pro- poses to devote his time for the next two weeks to a thorough reorganizatioa of the mechanical divisions of the office upon the Mnes agreed upon with his foremen, and such as he would have felt warranted in putting in operation in 1889 had he re- mained public printer. Since he took charge of the office under his last appoint- ment the greater portion of his time has been devoted to the reception of callers, and he has had but little opportunity to give his attention to the executive part of the office. a The War and Peace Spectacle. ‘The grand musical festival production of “War and Peace,” to be given on such a gigantic scale by Innes and his famous band of New York at base ball park Labor day, aftenoon and evening, September 3, 18H, cannet fail to be the musical event of the season. There are so many. features that will interest everybody, and each is of the very highest order. It is a rare treat to listen to a band of fifty of the finest musi- cians, especially when conducted by such a master as Innes, and nothing on any stage creates such enthusiasm as these concerts. Then there will be four eminent vocal a ists, whose solos and concerted numbers will create a sensation. The addition of chorus, military companies, fife and drum corps, the liberty bell, booming cannon, ete., will arouse such an enthusiasm as will be worth while witnessing. Altogether it seems to be the grandest musical combination ever sent out in America, and the day of the event here is sure to be a memorable one. Gen. Ordway has given permission for the Na- tional Guards who take part to carry their guns, and Capt. C. 8. Domer will have com- mend of the troops on the field. ——— The Sunday Night Concert. In selecting talent for the Sunday night concert at Albaugh’'s, September 2, 154, Mr. F. N. Innes decided to accept only such vocal artists as would make up a quartet of really grand and unequaled merit. Great tenors are always most acceptable, but in Mr. C, C. Fergusom dt is believed a genuine gem has been secured. He was selected for the uniform clearmess and robust, ringing «quality throughout the extensive range of his voice, and hisisinging will prove a de- light to all who heer it. He is one of New York's most sought zfter tenors,and if often found at the Seidl,iDamrosch and other or- chestral concerts, oratorios, etc. He studied for a time with J/iBouhy of Paris, but his style is Italian. The other members of the quartet are Miss Martha Garrison Miner, a brilliant young soprano; Mies Louise Engel, ‘the resonant conttaito who assisted Mme, Patti on her last:American tour, and Mr. Bowman Ralston, a remarkably artistic bass who for a leng time sang the leading roles with the famous Carl Rosa Opera Co. in England. $1.25 vin B. amaé Forty-Five Mi repos flyers to Balttmore and return, §1.25.

GEORGETOWN. Matters of Interest to Residents West of Rock Creek. The specifications submitted to the con- tractors, whose bids have been opened at the District office, call for the tearing down of the present front building of the market house and the erection in its stead of .a commodious one-story structure to run back to the one-story addition in the rear. The market house as it exists today has been declared by the building inspector dangerous. The M street, or “old market” house, which is to be removed, was built by Contractor Dobbins of Philadelphia, un- der the corporation officers of the town. Dobbins had previously built a section of the big conduit, from the distributing to the receiving reservoir. The site on which stands the market house was given the town for market purposes by Dr. Beatty, one of the original owners of the ground on which Georgetown now stands. it was contemplated at one time to build the pres- ent structure on Market street near Pros- pect, but an examination of the records Gisclosed the fact that if this were done the title to the original site would revert to the heirs of the donor. What is known as the Beatty and Hawkins addition to Georgetown extends from a point some dis- tance below N to the corporation line on the north and from a point east of 32d to ene west of 34th. Rev. Stanley Billheimer of the Gettys- burg Theological Seminary has accepted the gall to the pastorate of the Kvangcelical English Lutheran Church. His letter of acceptance arrived this morning.
