Hart of Alexandria was wrecked in Tarpaulin Cove, Vineyard sound, She belonged to her mas- ter, Capt. Kintz, who lives at Alexandria. The Hart was built at Toledo, Ohio, in 1874, and registered ninety tons. She was well known in the Chesapeake bay trade. The regular meeting of the Independent Order of Kechabites will be held in their hall tonight. Several new members will be initiated. The plant of the Bulletin, which was re- cently purchased by R..D. Hassler, is being moved into the opera fiouse building, from which place it will be tssued as soon as the press can be put in position. The synod of Virginia of the Presbyterfan church, composed of all the churches in Vir- ginia, West Virginia and Maryland con- nected with the Southern Presbyterian gen- eral assembly, will hold its session in Dan- ville, beginning on the 23d instant. Dele- gates from this city will be in attendance. The Virginia glass bottle works, in West End, are now running on full time and with an increased force. Even at that it is with difficulty that they can make enough bot- tes to fill their large orders. It is sald that the capacity of the plant will be increased. It is safd that a colored military organiza- tion in this city will, at an early date, make application to Goy. O'Ferrall to be mustered Into the state militia. Rev. Edward Wall of Hyattsville, Md., has accepted a call to Grace Church, Berry- ville, Va., the pastorate held by Rev. P, P. Phillips, rector of St. Paul’s Church before he came to this city. Representative E. E. Meredith, candidate for re-election to Congress from the eighth congressional district, says that he thinks there fs no danger of his not being returned to Congress. He says, however, that in order to make this positively certain every democratic voter should turn out on election day and cast his ballot. The local politicians feel sure that this city will give the usual majority. So far there {s no republican or- ganization here. Robert Boswell, the well-known baggage agent of the Southern Railway Company at Orange, committed suicide on Wednesday by hanging himself to a rafter. His many friends in this city regret to hear of his un- timely end. He was fifty-two years old and Jeaves a wife and seven children. Superintendent K.

The name of the donor would not be given. Now that the right of way for the entire line from this city to the Driving Park has been secured the work of laying the track for the electric rallway will be commenced and pushed rapidly to completion. This line will be a great accommodation to those who live at northwest Alexandria, St. Asaph junction and Del Ray, besides the local travel between this city and the park. It is more than probable that the route to be taken by the electric railway company between this city and Washington will be an extension of the line to the park. Deputy Sheriff Russell of Loudoun county Passed through the city yesterday with a colored woman, named Georglanna Harris, sentenced to three years in the peniten- tary for houseburning. She was lodged in the station house between trains. Andrew Grouth, who stole the surgical instruments from Dr. Betche!l, was sent on to the grand jury by Mayor Strauss. —_ NOT SATISFIED. One Fight Did Not End This Quarrel. Dolph Lippard lives at 622 H street south- west, but today he was not at home. His absence was explained by the records of the Police Court, where he was held on a charge of assault. For-several weeks, un- til a few days ago, Lippard bought his pro- visions at the store of Ernest Kiesecker, corner of 6th and H streets. He owed the grocer a bill, and when the latter sent over to the house for it the respense received was, “Put it on ice.” ‘This surprised the grocer, who went over and had a personal interview with Mrs. Lippard, but without getting any satisfac- tion. He politely irformed her that as she was not a man he could not deal with her as he would like to, but told her if she would come over to his house his wife would probably settle the affatr. That evening Mr. Lippard called on Kte- secker and a fight resulted. Yesterday the grocer complained in court that Lippard had assaulted him and Judge Kimball fined Lip- pard $10, He paid the fine, but still he was not satisfied, and last night he called on Kiesecker, so it is charged, and assaulted him with a hatchet. Again he was arrested and locked up. When the case was called in court this morning the defendant de- manded a jury trial. —— A NEW CATHOLIC PARISH. A Congregat’ to Be Established at Mount Pleasant. A new perish will be shortly formed at Mt. Pleasant to accommodate the Catholics of that section. Rev. Thomas J. Kervick, now assistant pastor at St. Matthew's, has been placed in charge of the project, which, it Is hoped, will be well under way by next spring. —_——~___. Has a Divorce. As an answer to the suit for divorce filed against him in April last by his wife, Mary F. Brackett, Samuel B. Brackett has filed in the court here a copy of a decree of divorce which he obtained aguinst Mrs. Brackett in the York county court of Maine on the 28th of last month. For two or three years Mr. Brackett was a special examiner in the pension office, but resigned last January, when he returned to his home in Biddeford, Me. _~— Fire Insurance Dividend Declared, A dividend in the shape of a rebate of 20 per cent on last year’s premium has been again declared by the trustees of the Mutual Protection Fire Insurance Com- pany of the District on policies in that com- pany, The rates charged by the company being already very low, this brings the cost ef insurance down to a nominal figure. All new policies taken out in the company be- fore the 26th of November next have the advantage of @ saving in the premium for the coming year, and also of sharing in any dividend declared at the end of that year. The office of the company is at 1406 G street northwest, where application should be made to the secretary, Mr. James EB. Fitch—Advy —__. Rapid Sales Result in a Constant renewal of our stock.

During the ¥ear ending June 30, 1894, it is stated, the school has averaged seventy-six children Per month, which is less than the average number cared for during the preceding years. Seventy children in all have been Gischarged during the year. Twenty of these belonged to the guard- jans, and fifty to the home. When their appropriation was cut down, the governing boarl of the Industrial Heme ordered the superintendent tc reduce the rumber of children to fifty, which was dene a3 scon as practicablé, The superintendent, Mrs. Barlow, refers in her report to the necessity of refusing. applications for admission, and also to the difficulty experienced in getting money for pressing nevessities. Mrs. Barlow recom- mends that a law be perred providing that to child shall be sent from the institution until after he or she has passed the fifth grade of the public schcol work. The need of an appropriation to repair the old butld- ing is pointed out, and the superintendent expresses the opinicn that the present plant should be a nucleus for a great government school, and she adds that she hopes to see it turned over to the District and more in- dustries added. The superintendent thinks that a box factory would be a good feature. $5,000 is recommended for repairing the cid building and tf no more children are taken the su- perintendent says the school can be run on $10,000, otherwise $15,000 will be needed. The Emergency Hospital. The annual report and estimates of the Emergency Hospital or Central Dispensary, prepared by H. Randall Webb, secretary of that institution, has been completed. The constantly increasing work of the institu- tion, especially in the dispensary, depart- ment, is noted, and it is stated that the present building is greatly inadequate to the needs of the institution. The emergency department, it is stated, is also inadequate to the demands made upon it. There has been an average of more than ten _emer- gency cases a Gay for some time. The re- port states that ground on the east of the building should be purchased as a site for the erection of a stable for the horse and ambulance and for quarters for the servants and the laundry. An appropriation of $15,- 000 for the next fiscal year is recommended. The need of a fire escape is mentioned and the laundry equipment is described as being very poor. The services of a night engineer are considered important. S$. Joseph’s Asyinm. Sister Euphrasia, the superior of St. Jo- seph’s Asylum, states that: During tne past year 137 boys were cared for. There are 101 orphans at present in the asylum, aged from six to fourteen years. This in- stitution is supported chiefly by charity, and since its cpening in 1856, 1,053 or- phans have been cared for. The total re- ceipts for the year amounted to $7,880.61. Of this amount $1,500.50 came from the government, $3,600.07 from subscriptions, $847 from half orphans and $461 from the day school of small boys. Donations of provisions and clothing solicited amounted to $1,301.04, The total expenditures of the institution amounted fo $7,826.65. Of this amount $6,435.6L was expended for food, clothing, bedding, fuel, hire, repairs and many minor expenses. $1,391.01 was ex- pended for provisicns and ciothing solicited. me cash balance on hand July 1, 1894, was 2.296. An increase of $3,200 for the coming year is asked for, to make their appropriation in all $5,000, > —— CLOSING EXERCISES. End of the Spiritualists’ Convention Last Night. The National Spiritualist Association con- vention adjourned last night, and at the conclusion of a banquet, which followed the closing of the business sessions, the dele- gates and visitors separated, to meet again next year in this city, During the afternoon officers of the order for the ensuing twelve months were se- lected. They are H. D. Barrett, New York, president; Mrs. C. L. V. Richmond, Illinois, vice president; F. P. Woodbury, Massachu- setts, secretary; T. J. Mayer, District of Columbia, treasurer, and M. C.

Just before the adjournment of the afternoon session and of the convention proper $2,200 was raised for the association, making the amount secured for the same purpose dur- ing the week about $3,700, in the evening addresses were delivered by Mrs. M. E. Cadwallader, M. C. Edson and Mrs. Richmond, and interesting musi- cal contributions were made by Miss Hat- tie Kein, the blind pianist; Miss Maddon, Mrs. Dickerson and Miss Julien. Mr. J. H. Altemus gave several mediumistic tests, that were regarded as successful by the initiated who were present, and a poem, jointly prepared by Mrs. Richmond and Mrs, Lillie, was read as the closing num- ber of the program. Over seventy-five guests attended the banquet, at which Mr. George Bacon acted as toastmaster. Toasts were given and replied to as follows: “Our National Association," H. D. Barrett; “Our Arisen Friends,” Mrs. Cora L. V- Richmond; “The Spiritualistie Press,” C. C. Stowell; “Our Mediums,” Mrs. A. M. Glad- ding, “Our Younger Workers,” Mrs, M. E.

De Molay Commandery, No. 4, held its regular conclave Tuesday evening at Ma- sonie Temple and conferred the order of the Red Cross on five candidates. The de- grees were conferred by Generalissimo W. T. Galliher, After the exercises the com- mandery and its guests, numbeting about 250, adjourned to the Evans dining rooms across the street, where a banquet was served. The tables were arranged in the form of a hollow square and were beauti- fully decorated with palms and cut flowers, A feature of the repast was the splendid display of fruits. Eminent Commander Martin O'Conner presided, while Sir Knights E. C. Elmore, past commander of Columbia Commandery; H. Small and J. H. Kloepfer delivered speeches. The conclave made the occasion for presenting a sir knight's jewel to the prelate of the com- mand, Rev. Chas. L. Pate, pastor of North Capitol M. E. Church. Sir Knight and Treasurer E. G. Shafer made the presen- tation and Rev. Mr. Pate responded in a happy little speech. The jewel is unique in design, being in the form of a circle instead of the usual cross, and is quite handsome. Many guests, despite the pouring rain, were present frons Columbia and Washington commanderies. Sereoreesoveooeoosooosoooes Sovereign Specific. ' Foster’s German Army and Navy: Blood Bitters.

Foster [ledicine Com- pany, Baltimore, Tid. 42076 POLICE PROMOTIONS, Rules to Be Bolléwed in Advancing Desesving Officers. For some time past the Commissioners have been engagedywin compiling .a new manual for the: metropolitan police. The printer has retumedithe proofs. There are several important changes in the new man- ual, noticeably tat @ection reiating to pro- motions. The important changes are as follows: The Meutemmnt of each precinct will keep a daily rgcord of the effictency of each sergeant-and private in his precinct based upon daily weports from the ser- geants and his own ebservation, and cnce a Week will make a eonsolidated report of this record to the major and superintend- ent. This record will show each sergeant or private to be “efficient,” “highly effi- cient” or “inefficient,". as the case may be. Promotions to the second class will only be made from those who have been rated as highly efficient for at least one year. The major und superintendent will make @ consolidated monthly report of the ef- ciency of the force to the Commissioners and will recominend for removal such mem- bers of the force as have been continu- ously inefficient. In making up the record for effictency, carelessness in dress, demeanor and ap- pearance while on duty and neglect to ob- serve the requirements of the manual will be taken into consideration. The use cf profane or obscene language while on duty or in or about the station house will be considered as sufficient cause for removal from the force. — Two Wills Filed. The will of the late Joseph E. Russell, formerly of St. Mary’s county, Md. has been filed here. The widow of the deceased, Fannie 8. Russeil, is made sole beneficiary and executrix without bond.

Employes Dissatisfied With the Re- auction of Wages. Everything {s quict in street railway circles, despite the stories to the contrary. That there is some discontent is not dented. It was all caused by a reduction which came about several days ago. It was decid- ed at that time that owing to the heavy expenses under which the road has been compelled to operate a reduction in wages be made from president down. This was ordered, and 10 per cent was determin- ed upon as the proper reduction. To further reduce expenses a clerical employe was dis- pensed with, the person being discharged. The men were all told that every one in the company’s employ had been subjected to a reduction and their per diem would have to also be reduced. There were no outward manifestations of trouble, though there were several ind President Griswold, in speaking to a Star representative, explained in brief the work- ing of the road, and said the action was a case of necessity, and that the men could resign at any time, as their places could all be filled at a moment's notice.
