On the occasion of the installation of the Rey. Stanley Billheimer the charge to the pastor will be delivered by the head of one of the prominent Washington Luth- eran churches, at the request of Mr. Bill- heimer and approval of the representatives of his congregation. Since Mr. Bill- heimer’s call to the evangelical church here the membership has increased en- couragingly, and through the interest that has been renewed it is most probable that the charge will soon enter upon the most Prosperous period it has ever enjoyed. The meetings of the vestry will be fre- quent and improving features adopted whenever they present themselves ad- visedly. Death of W. H. Pile. Mr, Wm. H. Pile, a wealthy retired mer- chant of Phuadelphia, and father of the Misses Pile of Cooke place, Georgetown. Ated om Thursday night in Washington through the performance of a critical operation on the throat. The remains will be. sent ‘to Philadelphia for interment ort Mcnday, where they will be laid away in the Pile mausoleum, attached to the Church of St. James the Less. Mr. Pile was in his sixty-fourth year. Will Be Bui The promoterg of the Washington end Great Falls railroad have not given up their enterprise in spite of their apparent inactivity, but are working silently toward the consummation of the most important part of their work, namely, that of pro- curing the private property necessary to make their Georgetown entrance on. Nego- tiations for the purchase of certain piec: of land have already been entered into, crd a large quantity of railroad tles are on the line of the route, as a preliminary to the actual construction. There seems to be no doupt whatever in the minds of those along the conduit that the laying of the tracks at a very early day is an assured move. St. John's Church. For the benetit.of St. John’s Church, the T. I. O. Dramatic Club, assisted by the newly organized Georgetown Banjo and Guitar Club, will give an entertainment at Linthicum Hall next Tuesday. A one-act farce, entitled “Trying It On,” and a three- act comedy, “Everybody's Friend,” will be the principal features of the evening. The musical organization will intersperse the program with selections. The comedy and Tarce will be presented by D. W. Gregory, H. R. Pyne, E. M. Newton, Miss Pearl Townsend, Miss Ethel Camp, Miss Leila Mechlin, W. Lambert and Miss Isabelle Nesmith. The banjo and guitar club is composed of Messrs. C. Woodville, F, M. Ball, A. G. Bradley, J. P.

Their selections for the occasion will in- “Vienna Forev: ‘Love and Beau- ty,” “Normandie” an ‘Armine.” It will be the musical club's first formal George- town appearance. Constructing Co! Dam. The work on the aqueduct pier recon- struction fs now apparently progressing slowly, though it is being kept at steadily. The importance of a perfect construction of the coffer dam compels the contractor to exercise the utmost caution in his work. The heaviness of the timbers being used, the dificulty in handling them and the in- terference that is offered by the current of the river, in the middle of which the coffer dam is being constructed, are obstructions that are being overcome with anything but ease and rapidity.

Last evening a grand reception was given in the chapel of the Gunton Temple Me- morial Church, corner of 14th and R streets northwest, to the congregation and their friends by the Helping Hand Circle of the King’s Daughters. The chapel was taste- fully decorated with palms and lamps, and a pleasant time was enjoyed by the large number present. A number of parlor orna- ments adorned the chapel, which also added much to the attractiveness of the scene. The musical and literary program ren- dered, each number of which receiv abundant applause, was as follows: Mr. C. S. Hiliett, piano solo; Mr. G. A. Prevost, vocal solo; Miss MeMurry, reading; Miss Zue Brockett, recitation; Miss Bessie Lath- an, vocal solo; Mr. Bayard Gibson, vocal solo. ‘The suctess of this reception is due to Miss Elizabeth Brown, who was assist- led by the following members of the Circle of the King’s Daughters: Misses Kathryn Brown, Edith Hubbard, Blanch Peterson, Annie Moore, Bessie Perman, Ray Kon- Sadie Jack, Emily Rose, Elsie Han- lanch Irwin and Marion Baldwin. At conclusion of the program refresh- the ments were served by charming ‘young ladies, arrayed in beautiful costumes. —_ Mary Was Convicted. Mary Bawnes, a young colored girl, was convicted in Criminal Court No. 2 yester- day morning of robbing Timothy O'Con- nell of a gold watch, chain and locket, on the 2d of last month, Mr. O'Connell was returning from one of the Virginia race tracks, and at Navy place southeast was accosted by Mary and two companions, Irene Harris and Martha Palmer, also ng colored women, It was testified that the girls gathered about Mr. O'Connell, and, after some parleying, Mary grabbed the articles and ran off with them. Irene and Martha were also indicted with Mary, but were acquitted. They were discharged and Mary remanded to jail to await sen- tence. a Charges Denied. Mrs. Sally M. P. Brown has filed her answer to the-suit-in equity filed against her and Sevellon A. Brown some time ago by Lizzie M. Phelps, growing out of the estate of the late Seth Ledyard Phelps, of which Mr. Brown was made administrator. She states that while Mr. Brown filed no inventory or appraisement of the estate, he did fle a sworn statement, which was ap- proved and passed by the court. She de- nies that Mr. Brown has intentionally or unintentionally perpetrated any fraud upon the rights of the complainant, and states that he has managed the estate with the same care and skill that he would have and did use in the management of his property, denying that any of the funds of the estate have become indistinguish- ably mingled with his funds. > New Officers.

Coroner's Jury om the Death of Pa‘- rick Dunnigan. Coroner Hammett held an inquest yester day afternoon over the body of Patrick Dunnigan, the boy whose death resulted from injuries received on the North Capitol street extension of the Eckington and Sol- diers’ Home railroad about three weeks ago. F. V. Rodgers, an expert electrician, whe Was in charge of the car at the time of the accident, was a witness in the case. The car that caused the boy's death was making a trial trip, the witness operating the car for the Electro-Magnetic Traction Company. The boy had charge of a baker's wagon at the time and when he attempted tc cross the track there was a collision. Th: Wegon was turned over and pushed som distance along the track. Dunnigan’s le; Was so badly crushed that amputation wa: necessary. Gangrene set in and a secon Operation was necessary. e motorman said that his car way running at a slow rate of speed and tha: he was ringing his bell. Other witnesses who appeared said thai the car wes running at a high rate oi speed and the beil was not ringing. The jury after discussing the evidence for more than an hour returned a verdict to the effect that the accident was partly due to the carelessness of the motorman in not ringing his bell and running the car at too rapid a rate of speed. Among the gypsies of Bosnia there is @ curious game, called “the game of the sheep.” You know they skin a sheep or goat in the east by dragging the skin off whole over its head. This skin the Bos- nians drip and grease most carefully, They then tie up the four legs, and the neck, and blow it full of air, so that it looks like a very greasy, badly shaped sheep, This is thrown in the middle of the ring, and each man in turn jumps on it with bare feet until one succeeds in bursting it, The lucky one then gets a purse. Such a funny sight as it is to see them jump and sprawl, for, of course, if they do not strike it at just the right angle they slip on the greasy sur- face as :f it were a toboggan slide and | So sprawling. —_-—-> —_ Mr. Gilbert Walden, the southern humor- ous and dramatic elocuttonist, will give an entertainment at Metropolitan M.E.
