A team of spirited horses, belonging to a gentleman named Leadbeater, ran away yesterday afternoon near the corner of 8d street and Massachusetts avenue northeast. Alexander Walker, the colored driver, be- img unable to control the animals, jumped from the vehicle, and in falling struck his head, inflicting an ugly wound. Sam Catts, a fifteen-year-old boy, was thrown from the wagon soon after, but escaptd unhurt. Walaer was removel to the Emergency Hospital, where 1t was found that his skull was fractured. He died about 5 p. m. The deceased livtd at 45 Fenton place, and leaves a wife and three children. Considerable excitement was occasioned at 7th and D streets yesterday afternoon by @ runaway horse colliding with a cable car. The side of the car was demolished, the ied the frightened and a few slightly in- jured. The horse was killed by the shock. ——— An Assign te Yesterday afternoon Robert McLeod, building stone contractor, made an assign- ment for the benefit of his creditors to Thomas Taylor.

Able Speakers From Abroad and Prominent Lecal Workers Will ‘Take Part—The Program. ———_. On next Monday evening at the Consre- gational Church, corner of 10th and G streets northwest, will be held the opening session of the Sunday school convention of the District of Columbia. The sessions will be continued on Tuesday and Wednes- day, morning, afternoon and evening, in the Calvary Baptist Sunday school house, corner 8th and H streets northwest. The first session will be a mass meeting. To this, and all the other sessions, all officers, teachers and scholars are invited to be present, though the business of the con- vention will be transacted by delegates. Those in charge of the work want to em- phasize the fact that all Sunday school people are invited to attend the meetings and enjoy them. It is now definitely set- tled that Dr. James A. Worden of Phila- delphia, Dr. John L. Scudder of Jersey City, Dr. 1. N. Earie of Wilmington, Del., and Mrs. Crafts, will be here to take part in the convention. Mr. Wm. Reynolds, the field secretary of the International Asso- ciation, has also written that he is trying to make arrangements to be present at least one day, and more if possible. Dr. Worden is known all over the coun- try as one of the most efficient of Sun- day school organizers and workers. He ts at the head of the Presbyterian Sunday School Publication Society. He is a prac- tical worker, having been a superintendent and pastor. He will be present during the entire convention and will be heard sev- eral times. Dr. Scudder of Jersey City is one of the most gifted lecturers in the country and his address on “Ecclesiastical Substitutes for the Saloon” is said to be one of the very best. That, together with the ques- tions to be asked at its conclusion will be a matter of the greatest interest to all who attend the convention, The lecture of Dr. Earle, illustrated with dis charte, will be a very instructive feature of the Tuesday evening session. The subject of the ad- dress will be “The Life of Christ.” Mrs. Crafts is so well known in all parts of the country as the leading worker in the primary department that the mere an- nouncement of her name on a program in- sures the liveliest interest. She is a charm- ing talker, is full of her subject when she makes an address or teaches a lesson, and is always an acceptable worker at a Sun- day school convention. Mr. William Reynolds, who is constantly going from conventicn to convention, assist- ing in the work, will add greatly to the interest here if he comes, as he probably will. This completes the list of outside workers. ° Of the resident miristers who will attend and in sume way will take part little need be said now. They are well known, and are of great force in_ the Sunday school work. Of these Dr. Newman and Dr. Mackey Smith will help on Monday evening, Dr. Charles. A. Stakely on Tuesday morn- ing, Dr. Domer and Dr. S. H. Greene on ‘Tuesday evening, Dr. Hamlin, Dr. Easton, Dr. McKim, Dr. Johnson and Dr. Power on Wednesday evening. Dr. J. E. Gilbert, who has recently come to the city, wiil also be upon the program. ir. Percy S. Foster of Moody choir rep- utation will be in charge of the music, and that insures success of that feature. Of the local laymen, some of those who will take part will be Messrs. W. Redin Woodward, W. W. Everett, J. B. Wight, C. W. Need- ham, W. H. H. Smith, Joseph Bowes and Frank Hamilton. Miss K. J. Laws and Miss Nowlin will teach lessons. Rev. E. D. Bailey of Central Union Mission will lead the praise service on Tuesday afternoon. Cther local workers will be called out dur- ing the sessions of the convention.

SEVENTY AT WORK. One Bricklayer Among the City Post ! Office Laborers. ‘There is trouble with the figures in re- gard to the city post office building again. This is due to a peculiar regulation of the tredes union, which requires that a brick- layer working on a@ circular wall shall re- ceive pay for a day and a half for every day Ke works. There was a man doing this kind of work this morning, on the east turret of the main entrance, and so he can not be counted, except as a man and a half. But fractions of humanity would be out of place in such a stupendous undertaking as the building of the post office has proted to be, and so the half man cannot be consider- ed. However, this regulation was not known to The Star day before yesterday when there was a bricklayer working on the circular wall of the west turret, and so that individual was counted only as one man. Therefore, the even thing now will be to lump these two fragments and add the result to the total of today, which is sixty-nine, and thus the figure for this day wiil be seventy men whose labor is entering into the structure. These men working Gaily without interruption from the weather cr the architect's office might get through with the building on or about the 20th of September, 1896, old style. But even this Burst of Energy that is be- ing forced into existence by the Grim De- termination, does not suffice to absorb nearly all the idle architectural talent in “Washington. The main gate at the north- east corner is daily besieged by applicants for the crumbs of employment that fall from the various contractors whose words are law within the inclosure. This morn- ing the hod carriers of Washington were represented by a sturdy son of Africa, with ‘his implement of toil, who had somehow conceived the mistaken notion that men were wanted on the site. He waited for an hour or so, and then realized his mistake, and went into other quarters. A bricklayer was also enviously watching the work of the successful applicant for the only job in that line on the whole building, and he and the hod carrier swapped sarcastic com- ments on the prcgress of the work. ‘There is some more iron missing from the shipments that come occasionally from In- @ianapolis, and so the construction of the frame on the eastern side is delayed once more. But that does not hinder the stone work any, for the masons cannot start un- til something or other is finished. So the iron handlers are at work on the south wall, and that plece is swarming with men. The centers for the great arches on the north front have reached the site, and may be set today. The work of setting these arches will be begun in a day or two, and probably will be pushed until the two east- erly arches nave been finished. Meanwhile it is not likely that any other stone work will be done. —_———— GEN. BOOTH’S VISIT. All the Arrangements for His Coming te Washington Completed. All the arrangements for the visit of Gen. Booth of the Salvation Army to Washing- ton are now complete. He will arrive on the afternoon of Monday, November 5, will be greeted at the station by members of the auxiliary league and officers of the army, and will be entertained by the secretary of the auxiliary league, Mr. William Redin Woodward. Monday evenirg he will speak in Convention Hall on the “Darkest Eng- land” social scheme and other work of the Salvation Army, and will be introduced by Mr. Justice Strong of the Supreme Court, retired. Gen. Booth will be assisted in the meeting by his son, Commander Ballington Booth, the American head of the American forces of the army, and by other officers, including Staff Capt. Malan, whose singing in several languages has been so much admired in New York. He has taken part in most of the great meetings Gen. Booth has been holding there this week, especially those which crowded Carnegie Music Hall two successive nights. Gen. Booth’s meeting in Convention Hall will resemble that one of the Carnegie Hall meetings at which Chauncey M. Depew in introducing Gen. Booth paid him and the army such a high tribute. On Wednesday Gen, Booth and his party will go to Baltimore, where he is to speal that night in the new Music Hall, being in- troduced by Mayor Latrobe. Gen. Booth had hoped to have another meeting in Washing- ton, but finds it to be impracticable to spare the time and strength necessary. In view of this fact it is supposed that there will be a rush for the tickets which Droop has to sell (each with rezerved seat) at only 25 cents to meet the large necessary ex- penses. —_—~——_ Bargains in Oriental Rags. The auction sale of oriental carpets and rugs consigned to D. Varzlabedian, which has been in progress during the last two days at*1216 F street, has attracted a great deal of attention. The attendance each morning and afternoon has been large and has comprised many representative people. The sale will be continued daily, and the opportunity of securing a superior class of goods at moderate figures is one that is being fully appreciated. The bar- gaius offered are the subject of a good deal of talk, and the result is that each day's sale is attended by larger crowds. The rug carpets and oriental wares to be ob- tained at this sale on such favorable terms find their way into the elegant homes of the city and contribute to their artistic adornment, as well as the comfort of the inmates.—Advt. ———-- To Show Cause.

A meeting of the Soldiers’ and Sailors’.and Sons of Veterans’ Protective Association was held last evening at 623 F street. A number of new members were admitted and @ large amount of routine business trans- acted, The most important action of the meetirg, however, was the adoption of the report of a special committee on resolutions, which characterized as a fabrication the showing made by the Interstate Democratic Association in response to the charge made of unjust and unwarranted disc! ion upon the part of the present administration toward ex-Union veterans. Lists were submitted showirg that there were discharged June 1, 1804, from the sur- geon general's office, War Department, eight ex-Union veterans, and that upon the reorganization of the Senate there were twelve dropped from the roll od Factories for Washington. To the Editor of The Evening 5 Every one possessed with a spark of local pride will rejoice in last night's action of the board of trade. It marks the beginning of a new era in Washington's development, and if the work as outlined is carried vigorously forward our beautiful city will soon havg left the position of the water boy and be up in the first four of the procession, where she be- longs. It is a matter of great gratifica~ tion if the people of this city have at last awakened to a realization of the fact that they cannot sit with folded hands and ex- pect prosperity to shower riches in their laps. They must get up and hustle for them, just as the people of other cities do. All our growing commercial cities of- fer inducements, such as remitting taxes, furnishing: power, or holding out some other allurement to manufacturing plants to locate in thelr midst. ‘They do this for the same reason that a business man ad- vertises, to increase the volume of their business through the thousands of ad- ditional dollars put in circulation. Supposing that through the efforts of the board of trade new factories would locate here employing say 5,000 men (a very mod- erate number); the wages of these men would average $700 per year, and since it is safe to count five persons to each work- man it would mean that the population would be increased by about 25,000 people, who would spend here every year $',500,000. Thirk how many times this would reim- burse the city for the inducements of- fered. No one takes greater pride than the writer in the fact that Washington is a beautiful residential city, and that it is every year becoming more and more the political, social and literary center of the country. But please tell me what is there inconsistent in Washington being all these, and yet being of some commercial import ance? As long as Washington remains only a residential city it will bear about the same relation to the other large cities of the country that China does to the prin- cipal countries of the world—that of an over-grown baby. It will be a magnificent baby, I admit, but what's the matter with giving the baby a chance to reach a still finer American maturity? To those persons who fear having Washington become a ‘horribly noisy city like New York” let me recommend joining the next Peary expedi- tion—there is no solitude (this side of the grave) equal to that of the arctic regions. Paris has the reputation of being the most beautiful city in the world (present company, of course, excepted), but have you ever heard the complaint made that fac- tories. begrimed her glories. You do not find these workshops clustered around the Place de YOpera norrlining the Champs Elysee, but they are alb around Paris, at St. Denis and other mear-by places, With all her wealth Paris has not the natural advantages that Wa: mn possesses. For the purposes of commerce the Seine cannot be compared with the Potomac, therefore her wealth must be sought for elsewhere than in the source of the Seine; we find it in her encouragement ‘of industrial estab- lishments. In conclusion let messuggest that’ Wash- ington emulate her example, and I predict that prosperity will be smiling on our American queen when her French sister is a wallflower. + ISTLE!

Surgeon General Billings Prescribes the Preventive of Smallpox. “It may all be gummed up in the one wo! accination,” sald Assistant Surgeon Gen. John 8. Billings at the Army Medical Museum this afternoon, when a Star re- porter asked him what was best for peo- ple to do in order to lessen the danger from contagion to themselves during the preva- lence of smallpox in Washington. “Isola- lation, the ting of placards and the hanging of from infected houses ai good only in the measure by which they call attention -to the necessity of vaccina- tion. It was vaccination that stopped t smallpox epidemic of 1879, when the na- tional board of health had the matter in charge, and Dr, Charles Smart of the army had supervision of it. House-to-house vis- itation and vaccination is the only effectual method to insure safety and kill out the disease. “Smallpox is a geometrically progressive disease,” continued Dr. Billings, “in this way. One cas¢, which Is called the first crop, will be followed by four; these, the second crop, will be followed by sixteen, while the fourth crop will be sixieen times sixteen, and so on. This is a peculiarity of the disease and a terrible peculiarity, too. Let every one get vaccinated at once and the disease will die out. That is the only means I know of to insure safety to the public and prevent the spread of small- pox.” —_— Ladies of the G. A. R. U. 8. Grant Circle No. 1, Ladies of the G. A.
