The boy was thrown from his seat, with the result 2s stated above. He died before reaching the Emer- ency Hospital, toward which he was being urried. —__-_.—— Three Cable Car Accidents. Three persons were struck by cable cars last evening and each Badly injured. Tney | were Robert Kemble, Mrs. Jennie L. Smith and a white woman, who refused to state | her name. Mr. Kemble, who fs sixty years of age, and hard of hearing, was struck by car No, 210 at 8th and G streets southeast. He was dragged some distance, and as goon as possible was removed to Providence Hospital, where it was learned that he was badly injured about the head. Mrs. Smith fell from a car at ist and B streets south- west. She was taken to her residence, 107 D street southwest, refusing to go to a hospital Her back and head were injured. A lith street car knocked down the un- known woman at Ist and C streets north- west. Her arm was injured. _— Clung to the Boat. Three white men, Joseph Thompson, John Dolan and James Hall, set out from Alex- andria yesterday afternoon for this city in @ small sailboat. When just off Buena Vista the boat capsized and the men were thrown into the icy water. They managed to grasp the boat, however, and tren shouted for help. After almost an heur had elapsed the ferry boat Belle Haven ap- proached the*men and, seeing their plight, lowered a boat and took them ashore, here they were left to dry before a big ire. The matter was reported to the harbor lice by the officers of the Belle Haven, and the police boat Joe Blackburn brougat the men to Washington. Thompson seemcd to have suffered more than his comrade: and after the Emergency Hospital sur- goons had worked over him for some time e was removed to the hospital. The other men were taken to Dolan’s home, in East Washington. It was stated at the hospital this morning that Thompson had recovered. ee Cold Day for Post Office. It is a cold day for work on the post office building, but 1t is a colder day for the waiting Washingtonians, who have al- most lost hope that they will ever get their mail from the structure on Pennsylvania avenue. Forty-seven men labored there with tingling fingers this morning, setting stones on the tower and the west side. The fron work has been practically susp2nded, though a man or two may be seen here and there on the great skeleton frame, tying in a beam that has been neglected on the first round, or straightening a plate that has been bent in the terrifle rush of a fortnight ago. ‘These forty-seven men might possibly finish the structure by the Ist of April, 1808, but they would have to hustle on every day of the year. _— > Grocers’ and Drumme tomorrow, at Pure Food Show.

King Majority of Those Present the Choice of a Last Night. The Washington Builders’ Exchange last night found itself in the embarrassing posi- tion of the maiden who, with a bean on either side, exclaimed: “How happy I would with either were tother dear charmer With two of its most promine members avowing themselves as candidates be for the position of building inspector of the | d | District, a special meeting had b for the purpose of nominating a man the place. The friends of both Fred. Pill and Thomas J. King were certain that two better men could not be chosen, and there was a strong sentiment in favor of partial action by the exchany: the indorsement of both “andi proposition, however, was voted down a brisk discussion, and, at the about an hour of talk, a ballot was taken on the two names, resulting in the naming of Mr. King, by a vote of 22 to 8. President Norwood called the meeting to order at 8 o'clock and stated its o¥ject, sv gesting that the best way was for sie ex- change to vote by ballot on the names pre- en for sented. Thereupon Mr. Pilling and Mr. King were promptiy nominated by their friends. Mr. Jacob Veighmeyer, however, protested against hasty action, saying that all per= the the members, of whom a very centage was present, could postpone indorsement, and that the two appl for the position should be permitied to stand on their own merits. Verhaps, he suggested, a good plan would be for ihe exchange to name a third man. This suggestion was not well received, al- though M V. Noonan spoke heartily in favor of it. A. L. Phillips and Thos. W. Smith were named for the position, but both promptly declined, though from aif- fering motives. Mr. King made a personal explanation. This movement, he sad, had come as a complete surprise. “Although one of the supposed applicants for the po- sition,” he added, “I have never sougiit ine place. I would not like to see a strife c! ated in the exchange over the matte! it could be conducted in a friendly m: it might cause the making of a new terest in exchange matters; but if it 1s going to create any hard feeling we had better drop the whole business altogeth= Mr. Pilling avowed himself as an appii- cant for the place. “I dd my appli- catioy,” he said, “and my testimonials are in. I did not sign the call for the m 5 tonight, but I would like very much to get the indorsement of the exchange, think it stands high with the Commi ers. But the small size of this meeting may place the exchange in a peculiar pu: tion. I may happen to have one or iwo mere friends here tonight than Mr. Ki and in that case I might get the indor: ment, or vice versa. Thus a very small percentage of the members of the org™:ni- zation would practically control the voice of the exchange. Those few ‘ndividuals might not have any weight whatever with the Commissioners. Of course, the result would be the voice of the exchange, and, therefore, would be a valuable indorsement. In view of the fact that there are two can- didates, and that this is a very small meet- ing, I wouid be perfectly satisfied to have the exchange indorse both of u: Then followed a series of personal expla- nations from members who had signed Mr. Pilling’s petition, and who thought they had been placed in peculiar positions. Finally Mr. John Mitchell moved that the secretary cast the ballot of the exchange for both candidates, and this brought Al- bert Stephan to his feet with a remon- strance. He thought this would be playing the baby act, and he was going on with a denunciation of the former regime at the inspector's office, when he was interrupted with reminders that Mr. Entwisle was dead and that he was going out of his way. He apologized for his reference to the late in- spector, and went on to argue that the ex- change should put one man before the Commissioners, and not two. Neither of the men named, he said, needs the position, but either would be proud of it. A vote was taken on the proposition to cast a duplex ballot, and the exchange was firm in its‘negation. Mr. Stephan offered a resolution making the recommendation to the Commissioners, but leaving the rame of the favored candidate blank, and this was unanimously adopted. Mr. T. W. Smith asked if the candidates had not got the names of individual mem- bers of the exchange on their petitions. Mr. Pilling said that he had the names of a good niany members. Mr. Smith thought that those petitions should be read at the meeting, adding that it wouid be eminently improper for the exchange to vote to in- dorse any candidate if the individuals com- posing it were pledged on paper for one or the other of the men. Mr. King said that he had no petition, and therefore no signers. He said further that he had not applied, but that whatever rits he might have for the place were be- ing urged, he was told, by his friends. Mr. T. V. Noonan moved that the ¢x- change proceed to ballot for a candidate, and that the successful name be presented to the Commissioners, without prejudice to | the other cardidates. This roused another burst of opposition, led by Mr. Stephan and Mr. Joseph Fanning, and, on a vote, the words “without prejudice to the other can- didate” were stricken out. Mr. Smith then called for the reading of the by-laws to show that there were mem- bers present who were not entitled to vote, wt having pald their dues up to date. But Mr. Stephan pointed out that the rule ap- plied only to votes cast at the annual meet- ings. The exchange detided in favor of Mr. Stephan’s contention, and so all present were permitted to vote. Messrs. Thomas, Stephan and Galloway were appointed tel- lers, and the ballot was them taken, with the result-already stated. There was one yote cast for Mr. Brady, thus giving a total vote of thirty-one out of a member- ship of about 145. There was some discussion after the vote was announced as to the propriety of mak- ing the indorsement unanimous, but it was pointed out by Mr. Pilling’s friends that it would place him in a false light to be pres- ent at a meeting which would appear to indorse Mr. King without a dissent, whcre- as Mr. Pilling is an avowed candidate and proposes to remain in the race. Thereupon the suggestion was withdrawn and Thoms Norwood, Albert Stephan, William C. Mor- rison, Jacob Veixhmeyer and J. W. Thomas were appointed to present the resolution to the Commissioners. —_——___ LEGIPN OF LOYAL WOMEN. A Pleasant Reception on the Occasion of Its Anniversary. ‘The anniversary of the Legion of Loyal Women was celebrated by a pleasant re- ception last evening at their headquarters, 419 10th street. ‘The officers of the legion who acted as the reception committee were President Mrs. Ellen S. Mussey, Vice Presi- dent Mrs. Fanny Pomeroy, Past President Mrs. M. H. Weisner, Recording Secretary Mrs. Laura V, McCullough, Corresponding Secretary Miss Helen B. Matthews, Finan- cial Secretary Miss Mary H. Brady, Treas- urer Miss Helen R. Holmes, Herald Miss Belle R. Houghton, Page Miss Jennie Man- ning, Warden Miss Florence Perkins,Sentinel Mrs. Helen A. Engle, and Miss Clara Bar- ton, Mrs. Kose Ferree, and Mrs. A. 8. Odell. Mrs. Mussey welcomed the guests on be- half of the legion, and a pleasant terary and musical program was presented, and among those who took part were Mrs. E. A. Hilton, Miss Edna Bremer, Miss Stew- art, Miss’ Nyer, Miss Driscoll, Miss Alice irvin, Miss Kate t, Mrs. J. Albert Hough and Miss Bessie Tyler. ‘The birthday souvenirs were a great suc- cess.

New National Theater.—Whatever the de- ficiencies that may present themselves to a survey of the week’s dramatic array in| Washington, there is no ground for com- plaint for the man who longs for the good old times in the drama.

It is a story of ante-belium days woven together with care. The arch vil- lain, the much-abused hero and the for- giving heroine are ali depicted, while the comedian is given an ample opportunity to run in a little sunshine when the clouds get ominous. William Nichols, as the old southern gentleman, was good, and Frank Montgomery, as Archie, brought a good many laughs. Virginia Bray, as Edith Walton, gave a strong impersonation of a difficult character, and Jennie Kay, as Mar- tha, shared the honors with the comedian. Kernan’s Lyceum Theater.—There is one thing that can be said about Hopkins’ Star Spec alty Company,which is filling a week's engagement at Kernan’s. It is always first class, and presents the best and newest specialties. Last night at the opening a crowded house welcomed the artists, and the unanimcus verdict was that the show Was one of the best of the season. That clever sketch duo, Fisher and Crowell, were first introduced, and filled in their time acceptably. Then came in succes- sion Master Willie Russell, the wonderful boy soprano, De Berssell, the French clay modeler; McBride and Flynn, in a laugh- | able Irish specialty; Fulgora, who con- tributed an interesting act, entitled,“Trans- figuration.” Mellville ana Stetson, whose reputation is world-wide, came next and were the hit of the show. This was es- pecially so of Miss Melville, whose rich contralto voice won her many friends. Bartlett and May did an eccentric tur George Graham, an old favorite in Wash ington, did a monologue of funny propor- tions, and Smith and Fuller appeared in a musical novelty. The Donazetia Brothers proved capable acrobats, and “General Custer's Last Ride,” a rcaring farce, com- pleted the entertainment. Again tonight. Metzerott Hall—Tonight Nina Bertint- Humphreys will give a concert at Metz- erott Hail. Thir lady is a singer of con- siderable ability, as she conclusively showed last spring, when she was here with the Hinrich's Opera Company. She then made many warm friends, who will undoubtedly be present to Breet her to- night. She wiil be assisted by Miss Hettie Bradley, soprano; Mrs. Minnie Bell-Irving, contralto, Mr. Charles Stuart Phillips, tenor; Mr. Fredevick Reddall, bass; Miss Avice Boxhall, harpist, and Mr. Emanuel Wad, pianist. “All these people are of well- known ability, and an enjoyable program may be anticipated. The Maud Powell String Quartet.—Wash- ington has always felt a pride in the suc- cess that Miss Maud Powell has attained as a violinist, for this is her home. She has been well received whenever she has appeared in this city, and it is hoped that a crowded house will greet her at Metz- erott’s Hall tomorrow night, when she brings a string quartet, of which she is the head. The other members are Josef Kovarik, second violin; Frank P. Kalten- born, violin, and Paul Miersch, violoncello. The last-named gentleman resided here for some years, and his excellent work 1s well remembered. The program will be an ar- tistic one, and yet it will not be too classi- cal. The quartet will be assisted by Mrs. Katherine Wadsworth, soprano soloist. Seats are now on sale at Metzerott's. The Philharmonic Club.—The second con- cert of the Philharmonic Club will take place on Thursday evening at Metzerott Hall. The concerts given by this club are among the most enjoyable during the mu- sical season, and the coming entertainment will present the members to excellent ad- vantage, in both concerted and solo num- bers. The club will be assisted by Mr. Anton Schott, the famous Wagnerian tenor and leidersinger, whose popularity here is very great, and Miss Dora Valesca Becker, who will’ b+ heard here for the first time, but who has already won the approval of the best critics as a violin vir- tuoso. The sale of reserved seats is now in progress at Metzerott’s. “Wonderful Relief KIDNEY TROUBLES AND OTHER AFFLICTIONS CURED BY Hoop's. Mr. Thomas A. Wood of Camden, N.

An Interesting Talk at the Army and Navy Gub Last Night. Gen. J. Fullerton, one of the veterans of the war, gave an interesting narrative account of Sherman's memorable march of one hundred and eighteen days from Chat- tanooga to the capital of Georgla before the members of the Army and Navy Club last evening. Gen. Fullerton had prepared a paper on the*“Atlanta Campaign,” but he became so exeited as his story pro- ceeded that he discarded his paper and his particular subjeet and spoke generally of the various battles between Sherman and Johnson. He was adjutant general of the Army of the Cumberland, on the staff of Gen. George H. Thomas, and was loud in the courage and military skill of that officer. His army formed the center of the advancing hosts and did most of the fighting. The attack on Ken- w mountain, the speaker. tal blunder, ‘and was made } Phomas against his own judgment . by the direct orders of Gen. Gen, Thomas was advised to ma protest against the order, but refused pos- | itively to do so, saying ‘that he had pr | tested so often without avail that if he did s afraid n his crit- ts of the so again they might think he to fight. The speaker was free icisms of the different movemer celebrated march, and never hesitated to praise or censure the commanding general or his chief tants whenever he thought the ci nees justitied it. He charged Sherman with having committed several blunders, in which many valuable lives were s iced, and spoke of Ge: Thomas as a noble soldier, whose milit genius and services to his country had not been properly recognized. = - = Fraternal peficinl Societies, The annual meeting of the District of Columbia As: jation of Fraternal Hene- ficial Societies was held yesterday i rlor 10, Willard's Hotel. ‘The following repre- sentatives were present: J.
