Postmaster Willett began yesterday to distribute the limited patronage left to him by the extension of the classification of the civil service. In the evening he appointed Mr. Wm. M. Dove, superintendent of the East Capitol station, to succeed Mr. Frederick A. Grant, and Mr. William H. Fletcher, superintendent of the southwest station, of which the former incumbent was Mr. Alfred C. Irvine. Both Mr. Grant and Mr. Irvine resigned and were given thirty days’ lecve of absence with pay. Mr. Dove is one of the best-known citi- zens of the District, where he has resided all his life. He is forty-three years old,and has been an ardent democrat ever since he was old enough to know what politics meant. He was for a lcng time fuel in- spector of the District. He is a leading member of the Columbia Athletic Club. Mr. Fletcher Is also prominent among Washingtonians. He has been engaged in the furriture business here for many years, having been a member of the firm of Sin- gleton & Fletcher, and also for a long time employed by W. B. Moses. His democracy is of the Jeffersonian variety, and he has always taken a warm interest in party politi Some interest has been created in the case of Mr. Grant by the announcement that several days ago he presented to the civil service commission and the Postmas- ter General a protest against the exciusion of the East Capitol station from the opera- tion of the civil service law, whose protec- tion had been extended bya recent order of President Cleveland, to all the post ot- fice stations in Washir gton except the East Capitol, the southwest and the Georgetown branches. Mr. Grant based his protest upon the ground that under the postal laws a superintendent of a carrier station is classified as other superintendents who are responsible directly to the postmaster and the Post Otice Department, and who are now protected by the civil service law. Consequently, he beheved that the East Capitol station should have been included in the list placed under the classified ser- vice, and so he requested the civil service commission and the Postmaster General for a decision in the matter. Mr. Grant states that his course is not intended as a move against the appoint- ment of his successor, but for the purpose of having the law construed. The Post- master General was not at his office to- being still indisposed by the Slight ilinéss he has been suffering for several da. Others at the department knew nothing ehout the protest. At the city post office, Postmaster Willett, when his attention was cailed to Mr. Grant's action, said he knew nothing about it. “Mr. Grant resigned as the superinten- dent of the East Washington station,” said Mr. Willett, “and I have appointed his successor. Mr. Grant was given one month's leave of absence with pay.” Mr. Grant's memorial had been received by the civil service commission, but no action had been taken upon it. “L do not see in what way the com- mission can take up the question present- ed by Mr. Grant, other than to refer it to the Postmaster General,” said President ‘Procter. “The commission would certain- ly not make any recommendations to the President that did not meet Mr. Bissell's approval, because he is as good a civil service reformer as the members of the commission themselves. If he wishes the stations in question to be excepted we will, of course, endeavor to have such a result accomplished.” “Was the Postmaster General consulted in the preparation of the recent order ex- tending the classified service in his de- partment,” inquired the reporter. “Why, certainly. The order met with his cordial approval, as well as that of the commission. I have not called his atten- tion to Mr. Grant’s communication yet, as he has not been well. I expect to see him today, but on different matters.” —_—_ Death of Mrs, Ritenour. Mrs. Elizabeth Miller Ridenour, wife of Mr. Upton H. Ridenour, an old and re- spected resident of this elty, died at 8:45 o'clock this morning at the famliy resi- dence, 916 14th street northwest, after a long iliness. Several months ago Mrs. Ridenour was stricken with paralysis, and since then she has steadily failed. All of her four children are married and live in this city. They are Charles R., Albert M. and Upton H. Ridenovr, jr., and Mrs, Jam: Irwin. Mrs. Rideaour's death will be gr ly deplored by her very many friends she has led a most useful life in thi vs and was well known for her charitable and | kindly disposition. She was devoted to the welfare of her children, and had through- out her life denied herself for them. She took a deep interest in religious matters, and up to the time she was taken ill was active in church circles. The funeral will take place at 2 o'clock on Sunday after- noon at the residence. ———__ The Death of Chas. J. Grasse. Charles J.

AMUSEMENTS. “The Maid of Plymouth.”—Thorne and Clay Greene's opera, “The Maid of Ply- attracted a very large and fash- jonable audience at the National Theater last night, and the work was given by the Bostonians in their usual complete man- ner. The opera was heard here last sea- son, and the satire on the Puritan life in New England was greatly enjoyed. Since then the libretto has been rewritten, and is now much brighter than ever. The mu- sic is reminiscent but there gre some catchy melodies, and whatever there is in both score and book is fully brought out by the excellent people in this cast. The burden of the fun falls upon Barnabee, whose burlesque of the Puritan elder is as neat and effective as he only can make it; Jessie Bartlett Davis, who does some splendid work as the romantic Indian mai-. den, and George Frothingham, who as an up-to-date redskin, makes all there is out of the part, and who got off the only local gag when he refused to tell when the hew post office building would be com- pleted. Miss Davis has one solo worthy of her, and this recelved a double encore. She was also obliged to repeat the duet with Miss Cleary. The latter, by the way, was quite effective as Sir Lovesly Montague, the first Puritan masher. Mr. Cowles, as Miles Standish, had few opportunities to display his noble bass voice, and Mr. Shee- han, as John Alden, did all that re: quired of him satisfactorily. M joise Morgan was a dainty Priscilla, and Miss Caroline Hamilton was quite vivacious the wordly Primrose. The chorus was good, and Mr. Studley handled his orches- tra with the ease and grace that come from long experience as a conductor. Church of Our Father.—An unusually good program has been prepared for the benefit of the Universalist Young People’s Christian Endeavor Society, to be given at the Church of Our Father, corner 13th and L streets northwest, this evening. This society, being specially interested in the home missionary movements and desirous of assisting the Capitol Hill Mission Sun- day school, aas assumed its expenses for the coming month, and among the outside work it'is aiding is the colored mission work in Norfolk, Va. The program em- braces the following favorites among the younger musicians of Washington: Mrs. Nellie Dobbins Exnicios, contralto; Miss Fannie Atlee, soprano; Mr. Melville D. Hensey, tenor; Miss Grace Winslow, reci- tationist; Miss Carrie Jordon, pianist; Mr. Ed. Tracy, cornetist; Mr. Frank ©. Ward, organist; a male quartet, under the direc- tion of Mr. Hensey, ending with the ever popular farce, “A Pair of Lunatics,” pre- sented by Miss Sara A, Kiggins and Mr. Robert W. Smiley. The Short Story Club. The Shorf Story Club met Wednesday evening at the residence of Miss Dora F. Voorhis, 1428 Q street northwest. The fol- lowing officers were elected: Maj. F. I. Willis, president, vice Mrs. L. A. Crandall, resigned; Mrs, Francis Burkett, vice presi- dent; Miss Cormne Hay, secretary, vice Mrs.’ E. F. Hort, resigned; Mrs. Joseph Roy, assistant secretary. This finished the transaction of business. Then the follow- ing varied ana d>):ghtful program was pre- sented: Dr. L. R. Klemm read an original story, entitled “The World Wants to be Deceived,” a Japanese fable on the success that infallibly attends all humbugs. Miss Lulu Facius rendered exquisitely “La Guittan:,” by Bischoff, Mr. Duncan Hey- wood gave a fine selection from “Mac- beth.” ‘Dr. Thomas Calver contributed an original poem, “The Three Angels.” Piano solo, Miss Faclus. Mr. Whittaker gave two amusing readings. Miss Jeannie Hey- wood sang the old and ever charming ballad, “My Love is Like a Red Rose.” Miss Corinne Hay concluded the entertain- ment with Joaquin Miller’s “Bear Story,” and as an encore recited “Johnny.” The following gues:s and members were pres- ent: Maj. Willis, Mrs. M. F. Heywood, Dr. L. R. Klemm, Miss Lula Facius, Mrs. D. T. Voorhis, Mrs. J. L. McCreery, Miss Mc- reery, Mrs. George F. Duggett, . ©.

McKnew, 033 Penna. ave., announces in another column of the arrival of nearly 310,000 worth of entirely new coats and capes within the last few days, and it is but reasonable to suppose t the most fashionable of this season's “novelties” should find thelr way into his establish- ment. he having made a specialty of coats, capes and sults for the past thirty years. Seal plush capes enter largely into the modes this season, being richly embroider- ed and jetted.
