Day, Indian agent at the Southern Utes’ reservation: “The Southern Utes have always winter- ed their stock in San Juan county, Utah. They are quiet and peaceful. Reports are from cowboys, who are themselves tres- passing, a3, the land in question has not n opened to settlers since 1888. I do not anticipate any trouble, unless cowboys force it." Upon receipt of this dispatch, Gen. Mc- Cook wired the War Department that there was no reason for the department to in- terfere. eee. Some Things This City Lacks. To the Enitor of The Evening Star: It is the habit of the Washington news- papers to extol the advantages of their city as a place of residence, and the cas- ual visitor to the capital finds every rea- son to heartily indorse much that is sald in praise of its attractions. Will you, however, permit a would-be resident to suggest that it might be.more in accord- ance with a tue public spirit on the part of the press were the other side of the picture occasionally presented, and the at- tention of citizens sometimes called to several serious defects in existing condi- ton Washington is often alluded to as the future center of art and literature in America. I have lately met an artist of in- ternational fame and an author of estab- shed reputation who had come to Wash- ington with a view to establishing here a permanent residence, but in each case the plan had been abandoned for reasons which cannot be too forcibly impressed upon those who have the welfare of the city at heart. The artist tried in vain to secure a single studio built for the purpose. He found the local artists working under the disadvant- age of poorly lighted quarters and scat- tered apart !n unsuitable build . He found the paint-shops {Il supplied with the requisites of the craft. He found that there was not in the city a gallery in which could be held a general exhibition of the most modest dimensions, The author knew it impossible to prose- cute literary labor without the assistance of such a circulating library as does not exist in the city, and he noted the fact that in the one place where new publica- tions could be ordered (not examined) the full published price was charged for books, a custom which has not existed for fifteen years in such towns as Lowell, Rochester or Trenton. He further discovered that through the peaceful stretches of tree-shad- ed streets the wheeled plano ranged with- out restriction, filling the air with noise and discord from noon to night. The author subrented the house he had taken for a year and went to Boston Now, it makes very little difference per- haps whether these two persons spend the winter in Washingtcn or not. Politics and society will doubtless do very well without them. The pavements will be just as good, the flowers as pretty in the squares, but if the city is to be at any time the abode of art and literature, or even a temporary vesting piace for the muses, the citizens must bestir themselves not only to advance the national capital as a leading place in the realm of culture, but to catch up with a score of towns whose names are rarely mentioned as centers of anything. A nineteenth century city of 300,000 in- habitants needs a library accessible to all those who know how to read. It needs a studio building which shall be the home of those who cultivate the beautiful. It needs a gallery where the makers of pictures of every land may bring the people in touch with the art apirit of the age. It needs these thin for its mental and moral well- being, just as it needs markets and sewers and parks for its pleasure and health. What the higher civilization of the coun- try asks of Washington is not charity, but recognition, and let me add that the high- er civilization will pay for this recognition in dollars and certs. The stock of a li- brary is a good investment. A studio butld- ing could be filled in a week. An exhibi- tion gallery pays dividends. What is need- ed is not a delegation to the lobby of Con- gress to get a share of the public funds, but an earnest co-operation on the part of public-spirited men to secure for their city the features which distinguish an enlight- ened community. Book-shops and paint-shops follow the demand; they are not missionary enter- prises, nor can we complain when we hear the usual response to a demand for some- ing not needed for material existence— ‘We have not get it—there is no call for it.” There is an Impression abroad that Wash- ington has depended too much on the fos- tering care of government to do anything for itself, like an over-petted cat which has lost the art of mousing. My own opin- fon is that there is no deficiency of Amert- can pluck and enterprise here, and that all that is needed is an occasional stirring-up from an excellent but too-indulgent press. GROWLER. ———- Giving Thanks in Berlin. ‘A largely attended Thanksgiving banquet was given yesterday at the Kaiserhof, Ber- In. The Rev. Mr. Dickie said grace, after which Mr. Theodore Runyon, the American ambassador, toasted Emperor William and President Cleveland, and indulged in some pleasant remarks fiatterIng to both Ger- many and the United States. Consul General Dekay toasted Berlin and the German-Americans in Berlin. In speak- ing, he referred to the recent American elections, and rejoiced in the downfall of Tammany Hall. Rev. Mr. Platner made an excellent and humorous speech. American songs were then sung, and dancing followed. A cable dispatch of patriotic greeting was sent to President Cleveland. AMERICA'S GREATNESS. Rev. Bishop Johnson’s Thankagiving Sermon to Haptisis. Union Thanksgiving services were held et 1l am, at the Third Baptist Church, 5th and Q streets northwest. Revs. J. H. Lee, pastor of the church, 8. G. Lamkins of Salen Baptist Church and Jno, Pryor of Northeast Baptist Church took part in the services. The Kev. Bishop Johnson, D. D., pastor of Second Baptist Church, and editor of Baptist Magazine, preached an eloquent sermon, selecting for his text Psalms, exlvil, and 20th verse, “He hath not dealt so’with any nation;” subject, “God and the Nation.” He referred to Thanksgiving as @ historical institution, ard paid an elo- quent tribute to the religious sentiment of the founders of the government. He dis- cussed two propositicns, as found in the text, stating, it is true, first, in a political sense. America, said the doctor, is the greatest political power on earth. Sfie has taught the civilized world the grandest lessons of human liberty and law; she has vested each citizen of a sovereign state with civil and political rights, and given the ballot as a poiltical equalizer, a revolutioner, the Instrument of warfare for the common people, and the badge of citizenship, to all citizens allke. He included in the term “American peo- ple” every class, race and condition that comes within the scope of constitutional allegiance, whether white or black, rich or poor, learned or ignorant; they ali con- tribute to the character of the nation, and either help or hinder its development. The negro is a constituent element, a fixture, a pert of the life and existence of the public, and as such must have accorded to him the same privileges enjoyed by other peoples. .''he doctor gave his hearers some excellent advice, urging individual develop- ment, and stating the same conditions that are precedent to the growth of any people are the forces which will make the Amerl- can negro grow. His second proposition was the materia! growth of the nation, in which a high tribute was paid to the pro- gress of the American people. He closed with the following: “The great- est nation on earth is America; great in its wide and varied natural resources; its sweeping rivers, creeping majestically and ently to their outlet; in its broad lakes, bearing upon their restless bosoms the white-winged messengers of commerce; in its towering mountains; its fertile valleys, in whose soil wave the golden wheat, the white-capped cotton or the nutritious rice; in its extensive plains; in its multitudinous grades of minerals, whose veins traverse circuitous routes in subterranean cham- intellectual giants, producing scholars, scientists, statesmen and phil- osophers—but, in all her greatness, she pauses today to bow at the altar of divine worship, and, with uncovered head, ex- claim, ‘We thank Thee, O God, for the multitude of ‘Thy tender mercies. SE ESSIS JOINED THE ASSOCIATED PRESS. New Orleans Newspapers Leave the Southern Organizatio: At a meeting of the morning newspapers composing the Southern Associated Press at Atlanta, Ga., yesterday the New Or- leans Picayune and Times-))emocrat with- drew from the organization and foined the Associated Press. This action was taken by those papers in view of the failure of the Southern Associated Press to abide by an arbitration which had been entered in- to, and the parties to which had both agreed should be final and binding. The New Orleans papers have been paying a weekly assessment for their news to the Southern Associated Presy equ:l to one- fourth of the total income of the ciation, and the withdrawal of the Orleans papers is necessurily a serious mat- ter for that association as affecting its future. A number of other papers in the south have given notize of withdrawal, and have signed contracts with the Associated Press. The Associated Press has extended Its leas- ed-wire system to New Orleans, in order to supply the New Orleans papers with its service direct. Thanksgiving Services at Howard University. A program of unusual excellence was rendered yesterday at Howard University in commemoration of “Thanksgiving day. Especial care had been taken as to the music, which was particularly good, both in selection and rendition. The exercises were opened by the singing of Lloyd’s an- them, “Arise, All Ye Nations,” by the uni- versity choir. Mr, Albert T. Clark of the theological department read the Scriptures and offered prayer, after which Hymn 3821 was sung. Mr, Elmer C. Campbell of the college department delivered an address, entitied “The American Home,” and the choir sang Hummel's “The Lord Is My Shepherd,” with fine effect. Mr. Dwight O. Holmes of the preparatory department de- livered Rufus Choate's declamation, “Love of Country,” in good style, and the Presi- dent's Glee Club, consisting of thirty of the best voices in the university, gave Di Rankin's~"‘Those Grand Old Continentals. It was generally voted after this number that the present glee club is the best that was ever organized at the university. Miss Katie M. Wright of the normal depart- ment recited Whittier's “Pumpkin,” and the exercises were then closed by the sing- ing of Dr, Rankin's hym: “Thanks to Thee, Thou Great Creator. Dr. Rankin pronounced the benediction. Mr. Grant 8, Murray of the college department presided over the assembly. The music was under the charge of Mr. Stephens, the principal of the vocal department, to whom greet credit is due for the excellent performa: > Affairs in Georgetown. A horse, alleged to have been stolen by Harry Mulveyhill, and sold by him to Louis H. Coleman of Georgetown, is in charge of the police here, pending Mulvey- hill's arrest. A warrant has been issued. On next Tuesday the annual election of the Chevy Chase Hunt Club officers will take place. The old Duvall foundry, recently the power house of the Washington and Ar- lington railroad, and now the property of L. A. Littlefield, was the scene of a fire at 7 o'clock last evening. it was started through the explosion of a kerosene lamp. The place is now occupied by Charles Hood as a beer bottling establishment. ‘A pleasant party was given last night at the residence of Mr. D. M. Proctor, in honor of Miss Hattie. Among those pre: ent were: The Misses Jones, Misses M Cauley, Miss Barron, Miss Biscoe, Mi Davis, Mr. Grimes, Mr. Poston, Mr. Wel- lington, Mr. Sebastian and Mr. Davis. Af- ter the usual enjoyments all repaired to the dining room and partook of the season's luxuries. _— > Woman's Relief Corps Bazaar. The cpening of the bazaar under the auspices of the Woman's Relief Corps, Department of the Potomac, occurred yes- terday afternoon at Willard Hall. The fea- ture of the afternoon was an elaborate Thanksgiving dinner, and in the evening Commander Bickford visited the bazaar, and in an eloquent address congratulated the corps on its enterprise. Mr. Francis Gideon, Miss Abble Johnson, Miss Cora Penfield and Miss Lilian Sefton contribut- ed to an enjoyable program. The affair is under the control of the following: Execu- tive committee, Mrs. A. E. Johnson, chatr- man; Miss A. V. Tompkins, secretary, and Mrs. Georgia Chambers, treasurer.

The premature explosion of a peewee; charge brought physical misery to @ trio o! workmen yesterday shortly after the noon hour. ‘The serious accident occurred at the bluesto>e quarry to the southwest of the Three Sisters. ‘The victims were R. E. Ferguson, George ‘Tubman and Joseph or James Golden. The last is a Georgetow! man. The other two reside in Virginia The men were struck by falling rocks and injured variously. One—Tubman—suffered, @ macerated leg. He may recover the use of it; may be injured for life. Golden’; chest and face suffered principally. Hi are believed to be the least serious of all the injuries received. In all feral Doeq though, he will be incapacitated for wor! some weeks at least. ‘The chest hurts to some extent internal. Ferguson was most unfortunate of all the men si 7 Accident had placed him where he recet the worst of all the rocky blows struck humanity on this occasion. Examination disclosed the fact that two ribs were broken by the rocks and various in’ injuries received. It 1s doubtful about hig recovery. It is believed that but one rock struck him, but it was received with full force and squareness, resulting in the breaking of the ribs and a strong compres- sion of the vitals behind them. ee THE TACOMA LANDSLIDE, It Wan Not Caused by Tidal Wave on Earthquake, Information proves conclusively that Wednesday night's great landslide at Ta< coma, Wash., described in yesterday's Star, was caused by neither tidal wave nor earthquake. Puget sound has very steep shores. Just outside the Northern Pacifia dock the banks slope into deep water at an angle of tcrty-five degrees. Fifty feet from the dock the water is 150 to 200 feet deep. At great expense the railroad had put in solid docks of made land, supported on the water side by a rock wall, built against piling, driven into the mud. This was not strong enough to bear the im- mense pressu-e, and when the high ban! further up lad been made slippery an loose by recent rains the outer edge of the dock began to divide and finally gave way, precipitating into deep water the most val- vable portions of the water front. The submerged bank is 100 feet long and 200 feet in width. Two persons were killed, Emma Stubbs, the fifteen-year-old stepdaughter of H. H. Alger, @ boat house proprietor, and John Hanson, the night watchman, who was carried down with the engine house cons taining the boiler and pumps which fur- nished the power with which the bluff side was being washed down by hydraulic pres- sure and the balance of the wharf filled be- neath. A few hours before the slide Han- son had been talking with Policeman Keene. The latter is certain that Hanson had no chance of escape. Neither of the bodies have been racovered. Superintendent McCabe says the perma- nent damage to the railroad docks will not amount to over $7,000. The work of re- pairing the dock will commence at once, but the rebuilding of the sea wall for 1,800 feet will be deferred until engineers at St, Paul decide what plan shall be adopted to insure further permanency. The south end of the sound freight warehouse, in which were the offices of the cashier and twenty freight clerks, went down in the crash. The safs contained $2,400 in cash and valuable papers worth $18,000. It was supposed the safe and the valuable freight receipts had been sunk in 200 feet of water, but last evening the two-story building in which the offices were located was found, partly bubmerged, on the beach at Gig Harbor, eight miles away. The safe and records aca now supposed to be safe. A diver has been telegraphed to come and search for them. The damage to shipping and other losses is estimated at $13,000, eee Mr. LeRoy Tuttle’s Funeral. Mr. LeRoy Tuttle, who died on the 26th instant, was buried today at Rock Creek cemetery. Impressive services were held at the residence by Rev. Dr. Rush R. Ship- pen, and at the cemetery by Rev. Dr. Buck. The pallbearers were Messrs. George Trues- dell, 8. W. Woodward, John R. Carmody, James W. Whelpley, Joseph Paul, Albert Cc. Stevens, D. W. Harrington and Gen. George Bell. Mr. Tuttle was one of the most useful men cennected with the management of the netional finances during the war. He was the official immediately intrusted with the issue of all of the United States bonds that were put out during that eventful period, and performed that herculean task with great credit. He was born at Colum- bus, Otsego county, New York, January 1, 1821. As a banker in Cooperstown, N.Y., and in Nebraska, he recetved the practical financial training which enabled him to act #0 serviceably to the government, when, at the urgent request of Treasurer F. B, Spinner, he entered the department and became the assistant treasurer of the United States. After his retirement from the treasury he devoted his energies to the development of manufacturing Industries and to the care of his property in the District, where he had acquired large real estate as well ersonal holdings. He was a man of prodigious energy, sagacious in business, honorable in all his dealings and benevo- lent and kindly to a fault, and was loved and respected by all. His funeral was Jargely attended. ——_—_. The Golden Cross. The committee appointed by Grand Com- mander Perry at the last meeting of the Grand Commandery to consider the subject of establishing a Golden Cross brary met last evening at the residence of Joseph B. Bailey in South Washington. There were present Joseph B. Bailey of National, Misa Adelaide Payne of Goodwili, Mrs. Emma F. Bishop of Columbia, Miss Bugenie A, Yates of Potomac, Stephen Simonds of Anacostia and J. H. A. Fowler of Mount Vernon. The.committee organized by tha election of Joseph B. Bailey as chairman and J. H. A. Fowler as secretary. It was decided to accept with thanks the invita- tion of tional Commandery to use their rooms ai temporary brary room, and the donation of books from Mount Vernon Commandery. It was also decided to give four book receptions in different sections of the city during the coming winter. The cfficers of the Grand Commandery made their offictal visitation to Meridian Commendery at {ts last meeting. Grand Commander Perry examined the officers as to their severat duties and in the unwrit- ten work of the order, and expressed him- self as pleased with the satisfactory and creditable manner with which the officers acquitted themselves, At the grand visitation to Goodwill Com- mandery at its I meeting Past Grand Commander Ehle conducted the examina. tion of the officers by request of Grand Com- mander Perry. The examination was thor- ough and rigid, embracing SS aris- ing under the constitution, ritual and laws of the order, and occupied nearly two hours. Visitors were present from most of the sister commanderies, oe For a Monument. Contributions to a fund for the erection of a monument to the late Andrew J. Gra- ham, the noted author of stenography, are being solicited among the shorthand writ- ers of the United State: The money is being sent to Mr. T. J. Ellinwood, at 19 Montague street, Brooklyn. With him, as members of the committee in charge of the matter, are Messrs, E. N. Miner and Wm, Anderson of New York. —__-+ +--+ Thanksgiving Day in Rome. Tho United States amintssador, Mr. yne MacVeagh, and most of the Ameri- cans now in that city, attended a Thanks- giving service yesterday in St. Paul's Church, on the Via Nazconale, Rome. At the conclusion of the service a subscrip- tion for the families of the victims of the recent earthquakes was op2ied by the Rev. Dr. Nevin. The sum of 550 lire was col- lected. ——_—___+e+____ Forest Fires in Ark: The woods are all burning around Ar- kansas City, Ark. The smoke is so dense one cannot see across the street. The damage to the grazing lands in the bot- toms will be immense, One house is re- ported burned. It is feared that some hunting parties have perished back in the swamps. It cannot be told for a day or two. Steimboats cannot pass the city now, and It will likely be some days before they can do so, as the fire will certainly continue a week longer, unk there is rain, The woods are very dry, there hav- ing been no ra‘n for four months,
