The officers of the Grand Lodge of Maryland. under whose furisdiction the new lodge: works, were present, and were accompanied by about 100 members of the fraternity from Balti- more. Columbia Lodge, D. C., was also out with a large delegation, and after the fecret work of the order was finished a lunch of excellent’ variety was dispatched with most commendable rapidity. Speech- waking was barred, toasts were outawed &nd the only motto allowed was “Eat until you're tired; then try, try again.” The tew lodge starts off with the list of mem- bers headed by some substantial citizens and will undoubtedly have a prosperous tereer.

A Mounted Carrier to Serve in the Vicinity of Tenleytown—Thanks- siving Day Order. At the request of City Postfiaster Willett and for the benefit of the citizens of Wash- ington the Post Office Department has authorized the establishment of the fol- lowing branch post offices in this city, to go into operation December 15: At the drug store of Thos. E. Ogram, 1211 Pennsylvania avenue northwest, to be known as “Station U.” At the drug store of J. Walter Hodges, southeast corner 2d street and Pennsylva- nia avenue southeast, to be known as “Sta- tion V." Also on January 1, 1895, there will be established in the drug store of Charles A. Becker, Tenleytown, D.C., a station, to be known as “Tenleytown station.” A mounted carrier for this station will serve ‘Tenleytown and Pierce's M!ll road. All of the above are to be supplied with facilities for money order and registra- tion business, and for the sale of stamps. Postmaster Willett will detail two addi- tional carriers for the East Washington station, who will go on duty December 1, and whose services will form a material addition to the facilities for the collection and distribution of mail on that section, As heretofore stated in The Star, the mounted carrier to serve the country in the vicinity of Tenleytown will go on duty January 1. It will be necessary for people whose houses are situated some distance away from the main road to place letter boxes at convenient points on the road, as the carrier will consume too much time in traversing the distance from the road to the house. This is especially the case along the Pierce Mill road. The post office would like to have people living in the vicinity of Tenleytown who may desire the serv- ices of the mounted carrier to communicate that fact to the office. Post Offices on Thanksgiving Day. Postmaster Willett has issued an order relative to the delivery of mail on Thanks- giving day. The money order and registry divisions will be closed. The carriers’ win- dows at the main office will be opened from 6 to 7 o'clock p.m. A delivery by car- riers will be made at 7 o'clock a.m. The East Capitol, Georgetown and Southwest stations will be open from 6 to 11 a.m., and from 5 to 7 p.m. Station C will be open from 7 to 10 o'clock in the forenoon. Collections for entire city will be made at 430 a.m. and 5 p.m. County collections will be made at 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. ——_—__— The Golden Crons. At the last meeting of National Com- mandery Mrs. Belle M. Carter, noble com- mander, presided. One application for membership was presented,and the de,rees were conferred on seven candidates. The committee on the good of the order are making arrangements to give the grand officers a suitable reception on the %cca sion of the official visitation at the next meeting, on December 10. At Trinity Commendery iast evening Past Grand Commander John N. Ehle pre- sided. One application for membership was presented, and four candidates were elected to receive the degrees. The grand visitation will be made to this commandery at the next meeting, on December 11. The many friends of Noble Commander ard Mrs. Pattee will be pleaséd to learn that their daughter, whose fllness has rendered necessary the postponement of the grand visitation, is improving rapidiy. At Columbia Commandery last evening Noble Commander E. Q. Gunson presided. Two applications for membership were presented, and the degrees were conferred on two candidates. It was decided to make a fraternal visit to Trinity Commandery at its next meeting, December ll. Under the good of the order recitations were given by Wm. E. Cole and E. J. Hopkins, and brief speeches were made by R. E. Harvey and E. Q. Gunson —_—.__ Dr. Purvis on Lynching. A large and appreciative audience at- tended the meeting of the Bethel Literary and Historical Association at the Metro- politan A. M. E. Church last evening to hear Dr. Charles B. Purvis’ paper upon “The Negro Raper and His Lynchers.” The meeting was opened with prayer by Rey. D. Grimke. Dr. Purvis in his paper showed that the crimes of rape ard of lynching in the south spring from the late condition of slavery and are chargeable to heredity and environments. He showed that tender cies to commit crime are trans- mitted, the sume as physical disease, and that ‘science had demonstrated that it takes a hundred years to eradicate disease or evil tendencies from man and his pos terity. He said that healthy surroun ings and habits of industry and temper- ance develop good morals, and he cou seled his hearers while educating the hea’ of their children not to neglect their hearts and hands. He brought down the house when he stated that often when the negro was guilty of the crime of rape it was because he had been made drunk by the very men who lynch him. The doctor thought the rum seller was worse than the raper, because guilty of furnishing his fellow man that which dethrones his reason and brutalizes him. R. L. Smith, acting president of the as- sociation, presided. The paper was dis- cussed by Frederick Douglass, Mrs. M. C. Terrell, J. W. Ricks, E. A. Clark, Prof. Kelly Miller, Clark and Williams. At the next meeting of the association Consul Henry Clay Smith will read a paper upon the negro in Brazil. —_— The Amateur Journalists’ Cle. The first meeting of the Capital City Club of Amateur Journalists since its or- ganization, en the 27th of October, was held Saturday evening in the parlors of Prof. Maina. Thete was a large attend- ance, which gave evidence of the young journalists’ intention of making this or- ganization a success. The meeting was called to order by President Sounderland at a little after 8 o’clozk. Mr. Barksdale, Misses Maud and Jennie Hunter, Miss Clara Hauptman, Mfr. Joseph Burkart and Mr. Edwin Etz were enrolied as members. ‘Phe officers and the committees made their reports, most of which pertained to financ- es. The publication of ‘the official organ, the Washingtonian, has been an expense, but by the co-operation of the members all will be fully covered. This paper, con- sisting of six pages, contains many’ good accounts of amateur journalism and re- flects great credit upon the club, especially the editor, Mr. Tracy. About twenty minutes were given to re- ports on magazines by the officers and members. The remarks were all well chosen and included various subjects, which added spice to the interest of all. This is to be a regular feature of the meetings, and In this way all will be weil informed upon current Mterature. Ten members were appointed to talk on the magazine articles at the next meeting, each one only to be allowed three minutes. Many points pertaining to the club were discussed, and it was proposed that each member secure new members, and go en- large the club. It was also proposed that the Washingtonian, which is a bi-monthly paper, should be issued monthly, and also that ft should be enlarged to twelve pages. In this case the members would have to contribute freely and the officers a page or two. This would not be difficult, consider- ing the amount of excellent talent that is in the club. A reception committee was appointed, consisting of Mr. Tracy, Miss Small and Mr. Davis who shall make it their duty to see that new members are cordially received and welcomed. After the business was transacted an en- joyable program of entertainment was pre- sented, in which Misses Clark, Chandlee, May Harrington, King, Ulke, Carrie Har- rington, Bessie Tyler, Messrs. Chandlee, J. C. Armstrong, Higgins, Hopkins and Mas- ter Armstrong participated. > Excursion Rates to Baltimore and Return.

This lady, in addition to her ability as an actress, is said to be of beautiful face and perfect figure, and to have that artistic sense of dress that makes her costumes the admiration of tho feminine portion of her audience. She will commence her engagement in ‘‘Camille,” a play that, though well worn, is always of interest, and as Marie Gauthier Miss Nethersole ts said to be wonderfully ef- fective. Besides this Miss Nethersole will be seen in “Romeo and Juliet,” ‘ou Frou” and “The Transgressor.” This is a repertoire that cannot fail to be attrac- tive, and a series of crowded houses will undoubtedly obtain during the entire en- gagement. Miss Nethersole comes under the management ef Mr. Marcus Mayer, who has secured an excellent supporting company, at the head of which is Mr. Maurice Barrymore. The sale of reserved seats commences tomorrow. Reilly and Wood's Big Show.—Manager Kernan’s attraction for next week will be Reilly and Wood's Big Show. This organi- zation is so well known to tha patrons of the Lyceum that comment is hardly neces- sary. An exceptionally strong olio will mark the opening of the performance, in which will appear a number of Furopean end American artists. The closing feature will be an extravagant spectacular bur- lesque, entitled “Hades Up to Date,” which will serve to introduce the inimitable Irish comedian, Mr. Pat Reilly. The farce abourds in witty sayings, catchy music, pretty girls, droll comedians and lively dances. The Moody Concert.—The sale of seats for the sacred concert to be given in Con- vention Hall by the big Moody and Sankey choir began this morning and a large num- ber have clready been taken. This will be an enjoyable concert, the program embrac- ing choruses that will be sung with a ‘pow- er and effect never before heard here. Mrs. Fs gua C. Noyes wili be the principal solo- ist. Dramatic Culture.--Mr. croft, director of the umpire Theater Dramatic School of N York city, will give a two hours’ lecture lesson on “Dra- matic Culture” in the Athenaeum of the Martyn School of Oratory at 10 o'clock Saturday morning next. Mr. Wheatcroft's reputation as an actor, instructor and lec- turer will undoubtedly attract a large au- dience. The Life Guard.—On Monday evening next, at Butler's New Bijou Theater, will witness the first production in this city of “The Lite Guard,” a new American melo- drama, in four acts, by E. A. Locke, author ef “Nobody's Claim,” ete. The occasion will not only be interesting from the point that it is the first performance of this piece in this city, but will also introduce Joseph J. Dowling and Miss Myra L. Davis in entirely different roles from any that ans have ever seen this tal- in, The scenery comprises a fishing village on Long Island, the recep- tion room of the fashionable Apollo Club N "s dive on the Bowery, and the: Robins’ Reef lighthouse. In the scene showing Nicolin’s dive an at- tempt is made to assassinate the hero by stunning him and placing his seemingly in- animate body in this old rookery, which has been set on fire, and the manner in which the plot is thwarted forms one of the strongest pieces of stage realism ever seen in this city. ‘The supporting company is exceptionally strong, and a good per- formance may be looked for. A number of new and original specialties will be intro- duced during the action of the piece. The Wonderful Kinetoscope.—When the phonograph was first discussed as a sclen- tific possibility—indeed, after the genius of the inventor had made ft a mercan- tile quantity, there was a popular dis- position to regard it as largely an imagl- native affair; one of “those newspaper stories,” designed for the recreation of the reader, but without a very solid foun- dation of the fact. Yet it is here, not only as a source of amusement, but as a practi- cal assistant in business. The phonograph had so thoroughly convinced the world of Edison’s ability to do whatever he under- took that his announcement that he would do more than reproduce human speech was regarded as a definite promise. When he declared that nature—not still-life, but in all its exuberance of motion—could be shown, the public simply waited. And it was not disappointed. The kinetoscope as it is shown In every city of importance in the country, is a source of infinite amusement to thousands of people daily. Its resources are practi- cally unlimited so far as the choice of subjects for exhibition is concerned. The machine itself is wonderfully simple. The Kinetoscope reproduces instanta- neous photographs taken at the rate of forty-six per second and preserved in their order in a long film. Inside the machine, neatly and compactly arranyed on rollers, are yard after yard of the fiun covered with these pictures. The specta- tor looks into the top of the machine and the film passes so rapidly before the eye- piece that it would, with no further appll- ance, seem only a confused blur. But a wheel, set horizontally, revolves just above it, so as to bring a slot between the eye and the film every time a new picture pass- ‘The result is a perfect representation of the scene as photographed. The Columbia Phonograph has the only Kinetoscope in this city, and they have proved almost as v s the phono- graphs. They repre Jects. One shows Carmenc ‘ita “dancing. The grace and energy of the littie Spanish ce- lebrity are all faithfully shown, and it 13 almost like eecing her upon the stage a theater. Sandow in the poses which dis- play his wonderful muscular development is another interesting study, and a pair of boxing cats and two women engaged in a spirited sword contest further illustrate the resources of the instrument. It is expected that the instrument will be so modified and improved upon as to per- mit its being operated anywhere and under any ordinary conditions. When this comes to pass it will undoubtedly have an impor- tant place in the sporting world, as no fairer or more accurate ref kinetograph could be de Like the phonograph, it is absolutely above suspi- cion; it never perverts or prevaricates. ison Wheat- MBE Ad, Writers’ Association. The second semi-annual banquet of the Ad. Writers’ Association was held last evening in parlor E of the Arlington Hoiel. The room was decorated in an artistic men- ner, chrysanthemums, palms and masses of roses predominating, and the utmost good humor prevailed. The number seated at the table was just one more than the unlucky thirteen, they being Messrs. B. H. Warner, Marshall Cushing, A. Maurice Low, Thomas G.Alvord, jr., Beriah Wilkins, George A. Lewis, F. MceSmith, Ike Gans, Gus Nordlinger, W. G. Kent, Sol. Gold- smith, Frank H. Pierce, J. A. Schaffer and A, Kauffman. The chief subject for discussion during the evening was an elaborate menu, but in addition Messrs. Warner, Wilkins, Cushing and Alvord each said a few pleasant words, and the Olmo Mandolin and Banjo Orches- tra added much to the enjoyment of the evening. Mr. George Lewis made a model presiding officer. Wonderful Relief KIDNEY TROUBLES AND OTHER ADFLICTIONS CURED BY HvOD'S. Mr. Thomas A. Wood of Camden, N. J., 1s a well-known Odd Fellow, and also an active mem- ber of Assembly No. 1 of the Universalist Co-opera- tive Association, Concerning his sufferings and cure by Hood's Sarsaparilla he writes: “I have taken Hood's Sarsaparilla for kidney trouble, which at times troubled me so that I became almost helpless, I was also afflicted with piles very badly for years. They caused me much pain and bled profusely. I was also TROUBLED WITH RHEUMATISM, And in the winter of 1891 and 1892 was confined to the house. This was before I commenced taking Hood's Sarsaparilla, which I am glad to say has cured me of this trouble and given won- Hood’s Sarsapariila Cures erful relief from my other complaints. I know Hood's Sarsaparilla is an excellent medicine, and I have recommended it to several.” THOMAS A. WOOD, 34 South Fourth st., Camden, N. J. HOOD'S.
