Their many friends In Washington will be sorry to learn that Adjutant and Mrs. Dun- ham, who have charge of the Salvation Army work for the district covering Dela- ware, Maryland, Virginia and the District of Columbia, are about to be ordered to another district. One of the established methods of the Salvation Army is to move its officers about from place to place fre- quently, and the Dunhams are to be reliev- ed by other officers under this rule, after a 11 administration of the affairs of the district. They will hold their farewell meeting at the Salvation” Army Hall, wv Pennsylvania av next Friday even- ing, when their many friends here will have opportunity to say good-bye to them. 5 pt.

Did Not Think She Was Too Old to Work—One Man With a Dog. Violet Armstead is a woman, and, like many others of her sex, she did not like the idea of Judge Kimball thinking she is too old to work. Violet is an old colored woman, and, although she could not tell anything definite about her age, she was @ grown woman when the war broke out. “This morning about 2 o'clock,” said Po- liceman Duvall, “I found this old woman cn the street near 4th and N streets. She had a bundle of clcthing in her arm and when I spoke to her she said she was waiting for her brother-in-law to open his house and let her in. I learned that she had been put out of the house, and if the weather had been coid she would have frozen to death. “She has no home,” nd is too old to work.” ‘No, I ain’t too old to work,” said “Aunt” Violet, “I ain't as old as I look, but I'm older than I used to be.” “What kind of work can you do?” the judge inquired of her. “i kin wash clothes and iron ’em,” the old woman answered. “But you have no home?” ‘Yes, I have.” Where?” Wherever I rent a room.” Where is your room now? ‘Il haven't any now, but I am going to werk and rent one. I worked last week and got my money for it “How much did you get? “I got a quarter and 10 cents.” “I didn’t work all the week.” wctinan Lud broughe her into court s atter of charity, but the old woman objected to being sent to the poorhouse. "I con't want to go down there with the other o!d women,” she plead, “when I am ab) vork my living. ‘The officer went over to see Sanitary Oiticer Fravk and ebtained from him a per- mit to send her to the poorhouse.

Several Tramps. Three white men and two colored ones were in the procession because they ap- plied for lodgings at the second precinct station last night. “They are tramps,” said the officer, “and can give no reasonable account of them- selves.” Two of the white men claimed that they were on their way to Newport News, look- ing for work, while the third one honestly admitted that he was bound for no partic- ular place.

AMUSEMENTS. “Miss Jerry.”—A large audience followed “Miss Jerry” through her adventures last evening at Metzerott’s Hall with every evi- dence of enjoyment. The “picture play” was a decided innovation to Washington audiences, the story being read aloud, with profuse illustrations, afforded by means of a series of unusually fine stereopticon views. ‘Ihe story, though not exciting, and depending largely upon the illustrations for its interest, gave the natural, unexagger- ated experiences of a young girl ambitious to distinguish herself in the newspaper world, and who, after a successful period of reporting, interviewing, etc., is married by the city editor. The views were among the finest ever shown here, unusually ef- fective being those of Mr. Depew in his private office, Sth avenue by moonlight, Broadway, and a number of interior views, which were really exquisite in their ar+ rangement and general effect. “Capt. Paul.”"—Next week melodrama wilt be the offering at the Grand Opera House, and from all accounts a good one. Japt. Paul,” the joint work of Messrs. . B. Rose and A. M. De Lisser, comes for one week, after a prosperous twa months’ run in Hoston. It requires two cars to carry the special scenery, proper- ties and effects of the organization, und employs over one hundred people to pre- sent the play. One of the principal scenes represents a° battle at sea between an American vessel, the Kanger, commanded by Capt. Paul, and the English frig&te, the Bret. ‘The press of Boston, Philadelphia and Baltimore, where the company is play- ing this week, pronounce this the acme of stage mechanjsin. Mrs. Langtry.—Tonight Mrs, Langtry will present “A Wife's Peril,” instead of “A House of Cards,” as at first announced. ‘The play selected is one which will enable the star to be seen to good advantage. The Philharmenic Club.—AltRoush it is composed of but three meinbers, the Phil- harmonic Club has done cn excellent work in this city in encouragirg and developing a taste for good music. All the members are artists in their respective lines, and their individual as as collective ef- forts have been appreciated by the music loving people of Washington. M Rake- mann is in the front rank of vic and the ability of Mrs. Lent as a pianist, and Mr. Lent as a st, has been recognized by a critical public.

The Mori Concert—The Mori Concert Cempany, assisted by the Y. M. C. A. Or- chestra, gave a highly appreciated concert is at Metzerott Hall Monday night. The per- formance of the orchestra, under the di- rectorship of E. A. Lovy, was satisfactory and pleasing, and the vocal nd con- certed numbers were received with appro- bation. The program incided instrumental solos by Mr. Lovy and Mr. Gottwals, and vocal numbers by Miss Burkhart, Prof. Morl, Miss Brandes, Mr. Barr. Dr. Donald: son, Patience Mori and Bertha Mori. ‘The Program was varied in character and numerous encores were dem: ded. Shakespeare's “King Lear.""—The subject of a lecture yesterday evening at St. John’s College, by Mr. Milton E. Smith, editor of the Church News of this city, was Shakes- peare's “King Lear.” He pointed out the characteristics, both good and bad, of the sevgal personages in the work. ‘Then he took up the incidents, explaining the plot and showing how the weaving together of the minor plots was accomplished to bring about the completed end desired. ‘Che third ecture of this course will be given next Tuesday ning by Rev. Thomas J. Sha- han, D.D., who will take for his ubject the Roman catacombs, their history, archi- tecture and the art displayed in them. Glories of the Nile—A theme which ts never exhausted in the lécture world is | that of the Nile river and its surroundings. Mr. Finney, who lectures t izht at Met- zerott’s Music Hall on the “Glories of the Nile,” has a very pleasing way of touching on almost every point, but in such a way that it does not string his lecture out. The lecture is to be illustrated by a great num- ber of pictures, some of which have never been shown before in this city. Chautauqua Union Lectur —The first lecture of a course under the auspices of the Chautauqua Union of the Di will trict of be given this evening at Mr. Leon H. Vincent, a Vincent. The subject this ng will be Thomas Carlyle. On Fri- ect will be Thackeray, and on Wednesday and Friday of next wee Dickens and George Elliot, respectively. All who have been to any of the summer Columbia Ww son eve assemblies or to Chautauqua know Mr. Vincent to be an interesting talker, and his lectures promise to be very successful.

Seats may be had at Metzerott’s. —EE ~-Robberies Reported. ‘ Thicves are getting bold and active, an the police and detectives have plenty to do. Following. the robbery of Mr, Berliner’s house Monday night, two colored men com- mitted a daring highway robbery last night only two squares from police headquarters. Miss Tda Hoffman, who resides at 608 Louisiana avenue, was the victim of the bold highwaymen, who robbed her near the corner of 5th and F streets. It was early in the evening when the robbery was com- mitted. The two colored men came along from behind Miss Hoffman, and one of them grabbed. her and held her while his com- panion relieved he~ of her pocket book. After robbing Miss Heffman the colored men disappeared, gcing through Judiciary Sqnare. The case was reported to the po- lice, but the criminals have not been ar- rested.. Miss Hoffman had only a little change in her pocket book, and the thieves petemnce well paid for their trouble and risk. Last night there was a burglary com- mitted at the clothing store of Strauss & Marx, No. 441 7th street. The show win- dow was smashed, and two coats stolen. It has orly been a short while since the show window of Flannagan’s jewelry store was red open and ropbed. Herman Trundring, No, 1451 P street northwest, complains of the theft of an overocat. The garment was stolen from his tailor shop. Two lap robes were stolen from Maj. Powell’s buggy yesterday. ———— The Big Pound Party. Friday next is the day for the big pound party for the relief of the poor, and the place is one of the big rooms on the 1ith street side of The Star buildings. Let every reader of the paper who feels an interest in his fellow man bring a pound, and who shall say how much may not be raised?

Brown of Ealtimore read the paper, entitled “The Relation of Religion and Science.” The doctor said that religion was a man thinking along certain lines, and that science was the same man think- ing along certain other lines, and that the one is the natural ally of the other. The papér was discussed by Messrs. Gray, Mil- vler, Stewart, Lewis and Clark. The paper will be read by Rev. Dr. J. T.
