As ustal, nearly all the churches have daring the warm weather, while so many of the congregation were away, taken the op- portunity to repair and refurntsh their au- ditoriums. In some cases, the work has been slight, but in others considerable changes have taken place. The eastern conference of the Maryland synod of Lutheran churches will meet in the Luther Place Memorial Church, at Thomas Circle, on September 17. The con- ference includes the Lutheran churches of Washington and Baltimors, ard it is ex- pected that the session will be an interest- ing one. It will be, at all evenis, a pleas- ant social gathering of the ministers of the conference. The session will be principally occupied with routine business and will last probably only one day. The Methodist Union of this city will hoid its first meeting after the summer recess en the third Monday cf this month, at which time the committee appointed to look into the subject of 2hurch debts, and to re- port especially on the practical results in Cincinnati and a few other large places where that system has been in existence for some time, will make a full repor: to the union. Rev. Dr. J. J. Muir, the pastor of the E Street Baptist Church, veturned to the city late on Friday of last week and occupied his pulpit again on Sunday. Dr. Mutr’s va- cation was spent in Canada, where, besides getting well rested and prepared for another yeas work, he delivered several sermons before prominent Canadian congregations. His family have not yet returned to the city, but will join him shortly. Rev. Charles L. Pate, the pastor of the North Capitol Methodist Church, corner of North Capitol and K streets, is again set- tied ir. the city, and has already taken up the work of the winter with vigor. About $2,000 has been contributed toward the church debt. What has already been done has put the prospects of the church in a much brighter light, and everything is look- ing up now. Rey. Dr. J. G, Butler, the pastor of the Lutheran Memorial Church, at Thomas Circle, returned from his vacation, which Was spent at Oakland, W. Va., last week. Prof. Painter of Roanoke College, Virginia, occupied the pulpit of the Memorial Church last Sunday. Rey. C. H. Butler, the pastor of the Kel- ler Memorial Lutheran Church, corner of wth street and Maryland avenue north- east, was expected to return to the city this week and occupy his pulpit on SuMMay. He has been absent on a wheeling trip through New England, accompanied by some friends, having been on the road sev- eral weeks. Rev. Hugh Johnston, the pastor of the Metropolitan Methodist Church, corner of 41-2 and C streets northwest, who has been absent so long in Canada on account of severe illness, is expected back next week. The general Lutheran synod of Mary- land will convene tn Frostburg, Md., on October 9 The syrod embraces all the churches of that state and the District of Columbia. There is nothing of unusual in- terest t6 be brought before the synod this fall, but the routine work is expected to occupy three or four days. The Tucsday right prayer meetings at the rooms of the Young Men’s Christian Asso- elation on New York avenue have been especially interesting this summer from the fact that all denominations have been rep- resented in the leaders of the meetings in a very pleasant way. During June the leaders were from the Christian Endeavor Society; during July, from the worth League; during August, from St. Andrew's Brotherhood, and during September they are from the Brotherhood of Andrew and Phillip. On the 17th of the month the Y. M. C. A. will hold open house. The new electric light plant will then be used for the first time and the whole building will be thrown open for the inspection of the improvements made during the summer.

Special Correspondence of The Evening Star, CAMP WERTS, SEA GIRT, N. J., September 7, 1804. It doesn’t always work out just that way, but it did today when Sergt. Clarence W. Dickey of company A, D, C, engineer corps, won the President's match and the fairly-earned title of “military champion of the United States.” Many clever riflemen have participated in the old President's match at Creedmoor, but there never was @ more thoroughly representative lot of entries than were shot today over this most beautiful of rifle ranges. Sharpshoot. ers from all parts of the country were on hand bright and early, and congratulated themselves on the excellent weather condi- tions. For over four hours the competitors A Greater New Yorker, banged away at the 200 and 300 yards tar- gets and then the statistical oificers fig- ured out the results of the first stage. The terms were, as follows: First stage—200 and 300 yards, seven shots at each distance. Open to all mem- bers of the army, navy or National Guard of any state. Each competitor to appear in the uniform worn by the organization of which he is a member. Competitors to shoot with the rifle of the model adopted or issued by the state they represent.

It was soon made plain that the leader at the end of the first stage was Private S, B. Wetherald of the District of Columbia en- gineer corps, with a total of 6%. Following him, in order, were Private Wilson, first Georgia cavalry; Private S. I. Scott, Dis- trict of Columbia engineer corps; Brig. Gen. Choate, Maine; Capt. James E. Bell, second District of Columbia infantry; Lieut. of District of Columbia engi- neer corps; Col. Cecil Clay, second District of Columbia infantry; Private J. M. Pol- lard, company A, District of Columbia en- gineer corps; Lieut. Robertson, second Maine infantry; Sergt. C. W. Dickey, com- pany A, District of Columbia engineer corps. An Exciting Contest. ‘The struggle at 500 yards was decidedly warm, but it could not compare for excite- ment to the fight which, for an hour or so, interested competitors and spectators at the 600 yards firing point. The scores made in the first stage cut no figure in the final, so, although Sergt. Dickey was last at first, he was not handicapped in hts efforts to be first at last. When it was evident that he had won he was immediately surrounded by a score of comrades, who were sincerely hearty in their congratulations. It is noteworthy and D. C. on the Skirmish. is something of which Washingtonians should be proud that the first four men in the final were of the District National Guard, and that of the ten who won places in that last stage seven claim the District of Columbia as their residence. Tonight the D. C, camp is exultant, perhaps nolsily so, and Sergt. Dickey is the central figure— the {dol of the hour. ‘The scares 0° those who were in the final are as follows: ef - 300yds. 500yds.

A. Walter, who died just five morths ago, Father Wal- ter was the pastor of St. Patrick’s Chutch, and was known and respected not only in every portion of Washington, but in many other cities as well. ‘The members of St Patrick's parish haye had erected a handscme monument to mark the burial spot of the departed priest. The monument is of granite, fifteen feet in height and nearly six feet wide. ‘A large block of highly polished stone forms the center, It is upheld by four columns, the whole being supported on a base of three large blocks, At the top is a cross, which surmovnts a spire. The Inscriptions, On one of the stones an open Bible has been cut, and on the disclosed pages of the book n-ay be read: “Blessed is he that un- derstardeth concerning the needy and poor, for he shall be delivered in the evil day.” On the central stone is inscribed, “J. A. Walter, Pastor St. Patrick’s Church, Wasbirgton, D.C.” The design and execu- tion of the monument, which is Gothic in style, was the werk of Mr. Gier of this elty. Father McGee of St. Patrick's Church has had entire charge of the arrangements of the ceremony attendant upon the unveiling of the menument, which are to begin at 4 Pp. m. The Ceremonies Tomorrow. Father McGee will preside, assisted by Father Gloyd and ‘Father Stafford. Rev- erend Chas. Warren Currier of St. Joseph's Church, near Baltimore, one of the best known and most eloquent clergymen in America, is to deliver the address of the day. Several selection by the new quar- tet choir of St. Patrick’s Church is to be a feature of the program, as is singing by the orphans of the parish. The transportation to the cemetery will be furnished by a line of herdics, starting at lith and H streets northast. A Memorial Tablet. The congregation of St. Patrick's has also decided to erect, in, honor of the memory of Father Walter, a tablet in the vestibule of the church. Several designs have been submitted, but the-committes in charge of the matter has not 4s yet decided upon any of them, —_>__ FLORIDA AVENUE. The Attorney's © as to the Right of the Metropolitan R.R. Co, What right has the Metropolitan Rajl- road Company to occupy Florida avenue? This has been the subject of many com- ‘munications to the Commissioners from residents in the ncighborhood who ob- jected to the changing of horses there. The atterney for the District in an opin- ion upon this matter some time ago held that while the railroad company had a right to use the street it had no right to umnecessarily obstruct it. The papers were returned, howe: with the request that the attorney give an opinion as to the railroad company's rigat to the use of Florida avenue. "Chis opinion was received by the Commissioners today and is as fol- ews: “Congress by act, to change the route of the Rock Creek Railway Company and for other purposes, approved May 28, 180) (26 Stat. 121), authorizes said company to lay tracks and run cars thereof, along Florida avenue, formerly known as Boun- dary street, from Isth street to Colum- bia road, eté. Having obtained this privi- the Rock “Creek Company laid the railway tracks, now in Florida aver be- tween the points named above, by some arrangement (not of record) between that company and the Metropolitan Rail- way Company the latter company is per- mitted to use them us the terminus of its Connecticut avenue line, in consideration, I take it, of the transfer of the passengers of the Rock Creek Company from ISth and U streets to the Metropolitan cars, at the junction of Connecticut avenue and Columbia road. This seems to constiiute the right of the Metropolitan Raflroad Com- pany to occupy Florida avenue.” oe AN ADVERSE DECISION. The Indiana Battalion Not Entitled to the #500 Prize. The Knights of Pythias executive com- mittee on the Pythian encampment and convention met last night at encampment headquarters for the purpose of deciding the question of the right of the first bat- talion, first regiment, Uniform Rank, Knights of Pythias of Indiana, to the bat- talion prize of $00. The decision was adverse to the Hoosiers. Divesied of all the knotiy niceties with which the matter has been entangled, the case is thus: The order for the drill, issued by Maj. Gen, Carnahan, commander-in- chief of the Uniform Rank, Knights of Pythias, was that the prize of $0) would be given to the best drill by a battalion ecnsisting of not less than four divisions and a full complement of regimental, field and staff officers. The Indiana battalion did not fulfill these Tequirements of the drill order. They dif hot drill with a full complement of regimental, field and staff officers. They appeared on the drill ground with only their battalion officers. This is in conformity with, the new tacties of the United States army, while the Uniform Rank is still drilling under Upton’s tactics, used in the U. S. army up to a very recent date. On this ground gf non-conformity to the order of drill the executive committee, Knights of Pythias, determined that the visiting organization of‘ their order was not entitled to the prizé. This is a matter with which the citizens’ executive committee on the Pythian encampment has nothing to do. Col. Heiskell, commander of the Indiana battalion, was present last night, and threatened to bring the matter before the Supreme Lodge, Knights of Pythias, and also befcre the law courts. Warm language was used, and he was accused by Mr. A. F. Medford, District representative to the Supreme Lodge, and by Mr. Notley Ander- son with using unbecoming and unknightly language. Col. Heiskell responded warmly, but things quieted down. Col. Heiskell was accompanied by Gen. Durand of Connecti- cut. During the evening Maj. Gen. Carna- han came in, but took very little part in the animated discussion, it being said that he wished to avoid being compelled to ren- der an opinion in the matter. Those pres- ent last night were Vice Chairman George W. Heisley, Secretary A. F. Medford, J. W. Carter, Col. Hairy Coggins, W. T. Mocka- bee, J. B. Conner, Notley Anderson, Gen, John E. Smith and W. E. Dougherty. ———_— Rev. J. A.

At a regular meetizig of Mechanic's Lodge No, 3, Knights of Pythias, held on Thurs- day night, there were thirty-eight members present and two applications for member- ship were received. ‘The lodge received two visitors from Baltimore City Lodge with the honors of the lodge. After the regular routine business had been transacted “the goed of the order” was responded to by M. of W._C. R. Herbert and C. M. Han- cock. B. R. Foley, K. of R. and 8., made an address on the recent conclave in Wash- ington. The meeting concluded with a recitation by T. F. MeCrint of that beau- tiful poem, “The Conquered Banner.” After the meeting adjourned several members of the lodge entertained the visitors from Baltimore at a steamed oyster supper. Mayor Strauss has been informed by the Postal Telegraph Company that they will not pay the license tax recently imposed by the city council unless it is cut down one- half. The mayor informed the manage- ment that he had no discretion in the mat- ter and the tax would have to be paid as prescribed by law. It is said that the busi- ness of the Postal Company in this city ts rot very good and the receipts do not cover the expenditures. The fire wardens at a meeting held yes- terday decided to grant permission to the Columbia and Hydraulion fire companies to take their apparatus and one hose carriage to Grange Camp for the water-throwing contests. The “Wm. A. Smoot” will be gut in commission during the few hours that the engines are out of town. They will be taken to Washington on the 11:3) boat and come back on the 6:30 boat. There is much speculation as to which of these two com- panies will lead in the contest. Thirty-two citizens of Accotink came to this city lasi night to have the degrees of Odd Fellowship conferred upon them for the purpose of opening a lodge of the order at that place. The degrees were conferred in Potomac Lodge room and were witnessed by a number of Odd Fellows from this city, Falls Church and Washington. William Yager of Roanoke, Va., has mov- ed to this city with his family and will en- sage in the real estate business here. Judge Cox of the Equity Court in Wash- ington has issued an order for an investiga- tion irto the sanity of Thaddeus Tribble, who went crazy on the subject of religion in this city several weeks ago, as detailed in The Star at the time.

The regular sessions of the city council will be commenced on the first Tuesday in October, when the usual semi-monthly meetirgs will be held.

The people passing in the neighborhood of St Paul's Church have again become ex- cited over the nightly appearance of a sup- Posed ghost. This ghost has made its ap- Peararce about this time each year for a number of years past, and timid persons will walk squares out of the way to avoid passirg the church. The police are making an inspection of the city to see that all persons engaged in business are provided with the proper sicense.

Is DEPEW It is Claimed That He Would Accept a Nomination. William Brookfield, the chairman of the New York republican state committee and of the reorganized republican county com- mittee, announced Mr. Depew’s candidacy last night, according to the New York Herald today. “I can say on the best authority,” he said, “that Mr. Depew has today cabled to his friends in this city that if he is tendered the nomination for governor by the state ecnvention he will accept it.” “That means that Mr. Depew is a can- aidate?” “It does.
