A BUSINESS AND RAILROAD MAN His Career in This City,Were He Was Born. A BUSY, HONORABLE LIFE ‘The announcement of the death of Wil- laim J. Stephenson, the president of the Metropolitan Railroad Company, was re- ceived by the large circle of friends and ac- qQuaintances of the deceased with all the shock of a painful surprise. It was not knewn generally that Mr. Stephenson's con- dition was serious. He returned to this city a week ago Thursday from Chicago, where he had gone on a trip with some of the directors of the railroad, for the pur- pose of Inspecting street railway systems and their management. As the company contemplates the introduction of a change in the system of motive power, Mr. Ste- phenson was anxious to make himself fa- miliar with the latest and most improved features of street railroad management in other cities. He got as far as Chicago, and a week ago last Wednesday, while in that city, he was taken ill with inflammation of the bowels. It was at first thought by Mrs. Stephen- son, who accompanied her husband, that she would at once send for the family phy- sician, Dr. Charles B. Bowman of this city. Mr. Stephenson, however, began to mend, and he felt so much better that he agreod with his wife that it would be more ad- visable to get home as soon as possible. They arrived here a week ago on Thurs- day. Even then Mr. Stephenson's condition was not considered seriovs, although he W. J. Stephenson, was confined to his residence, 301 11th street southwest. His physician, Dr. Powman, was taken ill, and Dr. James W. Lovejoy Was summoned to attend the case. Yester- lay morning dangerous symptoms were no- ticed, and about ncon hemorrhages began, and Mr. Stephenson's death occurred at 7 o'clock last evering. He retained con- sciousness up to the last. Cause of Genuine Sorrow. Mr. Stephengon’s death is a source of genuine sorrow. He was a man, it may be said, who was universally liked; a man of large frame, strong vitality, impetuous, yet kindly, nature. People were drawn to him and enjoyed the genial atmosphere which his presence seemed to diffuse. He always seemed to be cheerful and was an inveterate joker, and yet, withal, he was a man of pronounced business ability and recognized executive powers and was capable of hard and thorough application. He was, in the best sense of the term, a self-made man. Born in this city some fifty-three years ago, he started with the advantage of having a father whose sterling character snd high standing as a citizen and a business man will be remembered by the older residents of the city. The late Joseph Stephenson, the father, was for many years the repre- sentative of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad in this city, having charge of the local ex- press service of that company. ‘The deceased was educated in the public schools of this city, and shortly before the breaking out of the war he became a clerk in the quartermaster general's office. His ability and efficiency was recognized by Gen. Rucker, the quartermaster general, and he was promoted to positions of trust and held the office of chief clerk. He then served for a few years in the freight office of the B. and O. railroad. Nearly a quarter of a century ago, in connection with his brother Ambrose, he established the wood and coal business which fs still carried on under the firm name of Stephenson & Bro. ‘The firm is also the agents of the Maryland and Virginia steamboat line. Mr. Stephen- son married Miss Mary Pearson, a daughter of the late Peter Pearson, a respected resi- dent of this city, and a sister of Charles B. Pearson and George Pearson. He had one son, Joseph, who represented his father in the wood and coal business. His Railroad Career. In addition to the cares of hjs large busi- ness interests Mr. Stevenson has for some years been active in the management of the Columbia street railway, and several years ago he succeeded the late William H. Clagett as president of the road. The success of his management of the affairs of the company gave him a well-earned reputation in railroad circles, and when about a year ago, owing to ill health, Mr. George Pearson retired from the presi- dency of the Metropolitan Railway Com- pany it was generally felt that the directors had acted wisely in selecting Mr. Stephen- son to fill the vacancy. At the time of his election Mr. Stevenson held quite a good deal of the stock of the company. Owing to the conditions which surrounded the management of the road at that time the position which Mr. Stevenson was chosen to fill was not only an onerous one, but there were many perplexities and uncer- tainties which added to the burden which usually devolves upon the chief administra- tive off.cer of a railroad corporation: With his usual energy Mr. Stevenson set him- self to the task of mastering the situation. It is believed that the labor which he per- formed, as well‘as the many trying and perplexing details which arose, had an ef- fect upon his health which led to the dis- order which finally terminated his life. His sister, Mrs. Thomas R. Riley, and his brother and son were with him at the time of his death. His uncle, Mr. C. B. Church, is also in the city, but there are several relatives who are away, and this morning definite arrangements had not been made for the funeral, as it was the inten- tion to wait until the absent ones could be heard from. He was an attendant at the First Congregational Church, 10th and G streets. He was a well-known Mason, and was past master of Dawson Lodge and past eminent commander of Washington Commandery, Knights Templar. This afternoon it was decided that the funeral services would be held from the late residerce of the deceased Monday afternoon at 3 o'clock. on “Public Opinion.” See editorial page.—Ad. es Excursion to Gettysburg and Virgiuta Battle Fields via B. and 0.

Albaugh’s.—Canary and Lederer of the New York Casino will next week transfer their organization of 110 people to Al- baugh’s Grand Opera House, where, on Monday evening, September 3, and all week, with Wednesday and Saturday matinees, they will present their supreme production of “The Passing Show,” the play that ‘they have had running at their New York play- house for the past several months. “The Passing Show” {s said to be an innova-| tion In the way of amusements and will Prove a pleasing surprise to Washington theater goers. The piece is a combination of opera, burlesque, drama, comedy, chorus and ballet, all rolled into one huge enter- taining mass. A noticeable feature of the entertainment is the multitude of novel vaudeville acts, and it can safely be sald that the management have succeeded in gathering several original specialties, which are entirely cut of the ordinary. Among the many peculiar things may be mentioned “Great” Richards, the double-voiced vocal- ist, who is in himself a positive novelty. He hails from Vienna, Austria, and has just concluded a seven years’ tour through urope, and was secured by the managers # “The Passing Show” at great expense. le impersonates both sexes and is pos- sessed of not only a high soprano, but also a rich baritone voice. White rendering several selections from different operas he appears alternately in female costume, simply changing his appearance by turn- ing from one side to the other. The act is said to be a wonder beyond description. He or she appears on the stage with one side dressed as a lady, and the other as a gentleman, and constantly changes the voice from soprano to baritone and vice versa. Ladies will readily appreciate the trouble his dresses must occasion. There are also many other uique features and the audience is continuously kept busy with a kaleidoscopic procession of novelties. Academy of Music.—Mr. Charles Dickson will present his new play, “A Jolly Fel- low,” for the first time on any stage, at the Academy of Music next week. Butler’s Bijou ‘Theater.—_Among the lat- ter-day productions of native playwrights is a new version of the ever-popular and successful comedy drama, “Paul Kauvar.” It is from the facile pen of the late Steele Mackaye. Mr. Mackaye, bearing in mind that our theatergoers, like the Athenians of old, love new material, determined to give them nove'ty, and in rewriting the play has avoided the conventional, both in @ialcgue and situations. The new version is said to be ore of surpassing strength, in which a strong heart interest is pre- eminent, relieved at times by a refreshing vein of comedy. The scenic effects and mechanical contrivances are all new, and have received a great deal of attention at the hards of artists prominent in stage- craft. Altogether, “The New Paul Kau- var,” which comes to Butler's Bijou Theater next week, is promised to be bran new in its entirety, and will be undoubtedly the dramatic event of the season. Kernan’s Lyceum Theater.—The City Club Spectacular Farce-Comedy Company will open at the Lyceum Monday matinee, Septeraber 3, under the management of Thomas E. Miaco. It is the most thorough- ly equipped organization now before the public. its ertertainment is unsurpassed, and is replete with bright, fresh, interest- ing features. Manager Miaco is as keen a judge of beauty as of talent, and has secured the shapliest and most gifted beau- ties on the American stage. He has spared neither pains nor expense in mounting the first part, entitled “The City Club at the Seashore,” which is a revelation in the scenic art. Talented beauties vie with clever comedians in a variety of diversions, introducing the famous queens, Fannie Everett, Carrie Fulton and Ruby Marion. ‘There is an olio of interesting specialties, including Thomas Nolan, in character songs and dialect imitations; Brayant and Saville, styled the philosophers of music; then comes Fanny Everett, the leading bur- lesquer with the City Club Company, with a budget of new songs. The great French equilibrists, Edward and Flossie Beaudett, will intreduce the iatest and most wonder- ful manipulations with various objects, such as lamps, swords, plates, globes, ete. Carrie Fulton, the charming vocalist, will enter- tain in her happiest manner. Harry Bry- ant and Ruby Marion will be seen in an interesting sketch. The great European novelty duo, the Barnetls, will appear in a rew entertaiament, producing classic and Poetic gild bronze statues. Lowry and Hanley have a new diverting sketch for the Jaughter-loving public. A new series of living pictures will be introduced between each act in the ollo, portrayed by ten pretty girls, whose costumes are not lavish as to length or breadth. The successful burlesque, “The Old Home-in-Stead,” con- cludes the entertainment. It is a rollick- jolly burlesque, full of bright, witty things, pretty, catchy music and hand- scme girls. A Lecture and Concert Series.—Washin, ton is to have a series of lectures and co’ certs during the coming winter on a novel plan, The National Lyceum Bureau an- nounces a subscription sale of season tick- ets for ten concerts and lectures at the rate of $1.80, or 18 cents for each entertainment. When the subscription sale {s over single seats will be sold at 50 cents each. Boston, Buffalo, Cleveland, Chicago, Louisville and Cincinnati have had these ‘popular lyceum courses, but they are entirely new in Wash- ington. Everywhere else they have been a pronounced success. The attractions prom- ised are all first-class. They include scientific lectures, lectures of travel, ull fully illustrated with the stereopticon; some of the most famous pulpit orators and read- ers in the country and some excellent con- cert companies. The season will begin about the middle of November, and the en- tertainments will be given at intervals of one or two weeks. One of the novel features of the course {fs the privilege given to sub- scribers of selecting the ten attractions from a list of about thirty which the ly- ceum bureau has prepar SSS EXCURSIONS, The Morris educated ponies will make their last appearance at River View to- morrow in a marvelous program.

Pentz will leave at 10:45 a.m., 5 and 5:45 p.m. To the many people who may spend a day out of the city tomorrow, the popular re- sort, Marshall Hall, will be an enticing place. With the numerous attractions to be found there, and tne green lawns, where there is plenty of shade and cool air, a most enjoyable day may be spent. The steamer Macalester will leave at 11 a.m., 2:30 and 6:30 p.m., and the steamer River Queen at 3 p.m. The large crowds which daily visit Bay Ridge attest beyond question the continued popularity of that delightful resort.
