In his letter he suggests that there must be some misapprehension on the part of the authorities as to the location of the tracks, for no sand nor sand and clay mixed has been used along the iine of their road for the purpose of Improving the foothold be- tween the rails for the car horses for many years past. At the request of the Com- missioners only pure sand will be used for this purpose in the future. —_——-—- Real Estate Transfers. Deeds in fee have been filed as follows: Charles N.

A number of speeches were made by leaders in this movement, all of the most aggres- sive tone and expressive of great encour- agement in the propaganda against the sa- loons, The meeting was opened with a prayer by Rev. Me. Baldwin, pastor of the chapel, after waich Mr. James L. Ewin, first vice president of the league, made the introductory address. He said that the league is-comparatively a new institution in the District, and he hoped that it would be short-lived. He meant, he went on quickly to explain, that he hoped the necessities for its existence would soon cease, and tnen only would the league disband. “As long as there is a saloon in the District,” he declared, “so long will there be an Anti- Saloon League.” He went on to speak of certain work that has been dome by the or- ganization during the past few months in the spreading of litezature abroad. Two pe- titions have been circulated in order to test the workings of the present Mquor law, which requires that a saloon cannot be opened until a majority of the signatures of the property owners or housekeepers in the same block shall have been obtained. The first of the papers sent out by t league was for general consumption, merely stat- ing the objects of the organization and ask- ing for moral ald. The other was sent to those whose names appear now on the peti- tions of the saloon keepers. ‘These people were asked in this petition what benefits they or their neighborhoods derive frcm the presence of the saloons, and, further, reques that they take st ave their names removed from the cations now on file. A surprising number sent back these petitions, erasing their names from last years applications. But others replied with anger or with Mr. Ewin read some of the an- s from those to whom the petitions had not appealed in the way they were intend- ed. One man wrote “Buzz! You mind your own bus Another com- “The women who go eround with ers had better be at home attend- ing to the ecoking.” uvity in Politics. Rev. Mr. Power, pastor of the Vermont Avenue Christian Church, was the next speaker. He alluded to the fact that there is no suffrage in the District, and described the local citizen as being “as unconsidered as innocent children in a household.” Such a system, he said, Is false and untrue. He described the attitude of many Christian workers, who believe that there is no place in polities for gocd people, that they should keep away from the polls as places of mozal contamination. This policy of letting the government alone, he said, is monstrously wrong. If carried out to its finality it would place such men as Bob Ingersoll and Tweed in the White House and the ‘There are wrongs in society today largely because the good people of the com- munity do not stand up for their righ The saloon {s one of those great wrongs, and the obligation of Christians as citizens is to fight tnat wrong until it shall have been eradicated. About Snakes. Rev. L. Pate, pastor of the Nortn Capitol t M. E. Chureh, gave an e ample of the plaint of the saloon man who is kept from his Ycense by the action of the, eltiz Ofe man, he said, had come into his neighborhood and had opened a hotel after spending a good deal of money in equipment. The citizens had then made war upon him until he had to close his bar. He complained to the speaker that he had vested rights” ard that the gov- uld have tected him. Mr. that he, too, believed in h as the right of the 1 ris parent to the w of his son or daugh- and he b ed that this right was mount over that of the man whose threatcned the sovls and the pf the children. it was a case of nts of the many threate of the few. The league, he said, should oppose high nse, and he gave an apt illustration of ut is signified by that term by quoting from a resent religous periodical, whi likened the saloon business to a box filled with snakes. If there are twenty-five holes bored in the Lox the snakes will all escape. ‘That is unrestricted license. If ten of the holes are plugged all the snakes will get 2 other fifteen holes. That is low 2. If all but five are plugged the kes will then have to get out by those five, but they will get out. That is high li- e. Then, if the holes are all plugged nd the snakes are driven over into the t county, that is local option. But if the killed, that is prohibition. The ed by those nakes.” t much could be Jone by ard illustrated his mean- a mple of a storekeeper in his neighorhood who sold liquor. Mr. Pate had got him to cast up his accounts to see which of his customers owed the most money, and after a month or two he con- ed ‘that the oldest and worst ¢ of his drinking customers. After a 3 of thought he concluded to give ior business, and he withdrew his ioa for a license. Sergt. Daley Pratsed. Mr. Ewin,in introducing the next speaker, Mr. Edward J. Redmond, presideat of the Father Mathew Total Abstinence Society, called attention to the fact that there are no denominaticnal lines in the lesgue. Mr. Redmond said that the league fights the principles of the saloon keeper, and not the individual. He said that the man has a right to get*his living, but 1.0t at the ex- pense of the community and the people around him. The league, he went on, does not #sk the offictals of the District to break the laws, but merely to enforce them. The league means that the members of the police force shall be made to respect the caths that they took when they became members of that body. He then spoke of “the men who are trying to injure Sergt. Daley “There are more men Ike Daley,” con- tinued Mr. Redmond, “who would do as he 1g duing if they believed that the people of the District would stand by them. The majerity of the members of the force would rather live up to thelr oaths than break them.” At the close of Mr. Redmond’s remarks a resolution was read by Secretary Shoe- maker commending the action of the Dis- trict Commissioners in ordering that the members of the police force shall be sober This resolution was adopted unani- by a rising vote. The Warfare. h of the afternoon was Dr. L. B. Wilson, president ae, who spoke of the encourage- ment he felt at the size of the meeting and the good work that has been done. The at- titude of the local press, too, he said, has been most encouraging to workers in the league. He went on to say that there ts too great a tendency for people to look ahead of themselves to find chances for heroism. The chance Is today und here. There ts no better fight for heroes to wage than that against the liquor traffic. The responsibil- {ties of the citizens of the District are all the greater because their chances for af- fecting the government under which they live are the fewer. They have a good chance to kill the saloon by keeping their names off the applications, and they should improve it. It is not enough to be merely not for the saloon. Every good man should be against it, and should show his antag- onism by acts and not by simple senti- ments. He spoke of the slaying of a ma¢ dog near his house during the summer, ani said that there might have been a senti- ment against killing the dog because it men. The final spee might belong to somebody. saloon. The mad dog and the saloon are a menace to society and should be put out of the way, whether they belong to somebody or not. It is another illustration of the rights and safety of the many as opposed to those of one individual. After the meeting there was a session of a committee, composed of the officers of the league, to consider certain questions with relation to the police and the licenses in the district south of Pennsylvania avenue. Executive Committee. A special meeting of the executive com- mittee of the league will be held this after- noon at 4:15 at the offices of Mr. Jas. L. Ewin in the Washington Loan and Trust building. The purpose of this meeting will be to determine what official action shall be taken by the league in the matter of the investigation of the metropolitan police force for alieged non-enforcement of the liquor laws in certain districts of the city. As yet the league has not become officially involved in the disturbance, but the proba- bilities strongly favor the belief that it will. A PASTOR'S ANNIVERSARY. The Twenty Years of Dr. Domer's Service in St. Paul's Church, Yesterday was the twentieth anniversary of the pastorate of the Rev. Dr. Domer, the rector of St.Paul’s English Luthern Church, The occasion was one of special interest to the congregation, and the services of the day had special reference to this event. The auditorium was decorated with foliage, plants and flowers. At the morning service Dr. Domer delivered a sermon appropriate to the occasion. In the afternoon meetings were held by the members of the Christian Endeavor Society, and in the evening there was an informal gathering of the congrega- tion for prayer and consultation as to the plans for the coming year. In November, 1874, Dr. Domer assumed rge, being the fitth in the succession of tors since the organization of the con- sregation over fifty years ago. He came to Washington from ‘Irinity Church, Shamo- kin, Pa., having previously served charges at Selinsgrove and Reading, Pa. He has not lost a Sunday on account of ill health for twenty years, and has not missed a communion season nor anniversary occasion of any sort in that time. In August, 18 the audience room underwent needed im. provements, the walls were refrescoed, wood work repainted, new carpets were put down, the pulpit and chancel returnished and stained glass windows subsututed for the old plain ones. These improvements cost$1040, The reopening services were held Sunday, November Isv7, when it was reported that $400 was needed to completely liqui- date this indebtedness. Instead of only $400 $80 Was raised. The next improve- ment was made in ISL at a cost of $3,712. The outside of the building was remodeled, towers finished, the old outside steps taken away and replaced by a new front and vestibule entrance. ‘The last and most costly improvement was made in 1888 and cost nearly $9,000, The audience room was entirely remodeled, and the ehanges in- cluded a new gallery, pulpit, chancel, pews, carpets, chandeliers ‘and a ‘pipe organ. To the new organ fund $2,000 was generously donated by Mrs. Ann T. Clary. The re- ch opening services took place December 2, lds8. Rev. W. H. Gotwald preached in the morning and Dr. Domer at night. AMUSEMENTS. Calvary Baptist Church.—There was a very enjoyable concert at the Calvary Bap- tist Church last Friday evening under the auspices of the Vaughan class. The church was crowded and the program was greatly enjoyed. Of the vocal numbers the best was “Answer,” sung by Mrs. Thomas C. Noyes, whose rich, pure voice was heard to excel- lent advantage. In response to the em- phatic encore, she gave “Janet's Choice.” Miss Cora Boyd, Miss Florence McNelly and Mr. Gilbert contributed vocal solos, Prof. Harry Wheaton Howard played the organ, Mr. Elphonzo Youngs, jr., the cornet, Miss Anita Cluss the harp and Mr. Ferry gave excellent recitations. Dr, Conan Doyle.—Tonight at Metzerott Music Hall Dr. Conan Doyle, the eminent English author, will make his first appear- ance before a Washington audience in read- ings and reminiscences. He was very suc- cessful in New York, and, in fact, has made an excellent impression in every city he has isited. It is ex he will be equally weil received in this city. The Choral Society.—In Mendelssohn's character there was nothing of the erratic irresponsibility so often the accompaniment of genius. Apart from the intrinsic quali- ties of the rausic of his larger choral works, the melody, the clearness, spirlt and sym- metry which they exhibit in common with his instrumental compositions, there is one thing which remarkably distinguishes them and in which they are far in advance of their predecessors—-a simple and direct at- tempt to set the subject forth as it was; to think first of the story and next of the ‘The Choral So- music which depicted it. ciety’s performance of Mendelssohn's first oratorio, “St. Paul,® on Wednesday even- ing, at Convention Music Hall, promises to be one of the most satisfactory choral con- certs that Washington has had the oppor- tunity of listening to.

A Great Musical Organization.—A writer in one of the metropglitan newspapers in de- scribing Melba’s tolce says that it 1s thrush-like in the tone quality and appar- ently like a bird’s also fn {ts absolute ab- sence of effort. When she will be heard here tomorrow evening at Convention Music Hall in a number of her favorite se- lections it will be in the company of some of the most famous artists of the great aggregation of songstresses and singers which Messrs. Abbey, Schoeffel and Grau have gathered together from all parts of the world for the next season of grand cpera in Itallan and French in the New Metropolitan Opera House in New York. The great contra Madame Sealcht; the young tenor, M. Mauguiere, and the famous basso, M. Plancon. Miss Gertrude Betz, a promising young pianist, also travels with the company. The grand orchestra of the New Metropolitan Opera House, led by Signor Bevignanl, a famous conductor and composer, Is not the least attractive feature of this magnificent concert company.

Several cases involwing violations of the municipal ordinances were heard in Judge Kimball's court this wmorning. Joseph Blundon, a contracter,awas defendant in one case, it being charged that he permit- ted dirt to drop fromccarts on the street in South Washington. MrBlundon is a con- tractor and was engaged making an exca- vation where a house is to be built. Wheth- er it was the fault of the drivers or not, dirt from the carts dropped on the street, and Policeman Shannon charged that the dirt was not cleaned-from the street. One of the contractor's men.said that an effort is made to clean the street each afternoon, and Judge Kimball took his personal bonds. Charles Tyler, contractor, doing work on the Harrison flats, had some building ma- terial in the street Wednesday, but there — no light on it when a policeman was there. “I shook the lamp,” he said, “and I don’t think there was any ofl in it.” “That was Halloween night,” said Mr. Tyler, “and the boys were out.” ‘There was no evidence, however, that the boys troubled the lamp, | Even if they had, the judge said it would be no excuse. The law requires a light, and if there is no light there the contractor has no excuse, for the employment of a watchman will avoid such trouble, A fine of $5 was im- posed. C. W. Sollers was in court on a charge resulting from the alleged misconduct of his dog. The canine, it was charged, annoyed H. D. Nash, and the case went over until Monday. There was a charge of vagrancy against a young colored man named George Bell. He was on the streets about 8 o'clock this morning, and a policeman said he saw him look in a window. “I thought I was hom he sald. “When I put up my horse and wagon I left my hat in the house, and was surprised when the policeman arrested me.” A sentence of five days was -imposed.
