Speeches and a Good Time — Many Other Notes of General and Loeal Interest. The twenty-sixth anniversary of Geo. C. Whiting Lodge, Nc. 22, F. A. A. M., was celebrated auspiciously last nignt at Ma- sonic banquet hall. All the prominent members of the order in the West End were present. There were covers fer nearly two hundred. Worshipful Master Rezin W. Darby presided. Gathered about him were the living past masters of the lodze, honored guests from Washington organiza- tions, and others who have paid special at- tention to Masonry. The banquet hali was draped in evergreens and American flags end the tables were heaped with delicacies made still more inviting through the pro- fuse introduction of scented and beautiful flowers. The speeches were *apt, witty, poetical, eloquent ari fraternal. M. W. G. M. D. G. Dixson was the first speaker, resperding to the Grand Ledge toast. He was followed by W. M. W. S. Waddey of Potomac, No. 5; W. M. Breen of Hiram, No. i0; High Priest John E.Wagner of Potomac Chapter, No. 8; Judge Lacey of Orient Lodge; Past Masters Appleby, Patmer, ‘Thorne and Starch of Geo. C. Whiting, No. 22; Prof. Work of Geo. C. Whiting, N: Eminent Commander Webster Vinson 0: Potomac Commandery, No. 3, and senior warden of Geo. C. Whiting; W. T. Weaver, junior werden of Geo.

John A. Joyce, Rev. Mr. Lewis and J. Barton Miller of Geo. C. Whiting, No. 22. Prof. Work re- sponded to “Mothers, Wives, Sisters and Sweethearts.” Col. Joyce's address was one of the most taking of the evening. It was fuil of good-humored satire and local hits. Several of his own poems were re- cited with effectiveness. During the course of the evening Past Master Palmer of Geo. C. Whiting, on be- half of the lodge, presented a beautiful and appropriately inscribed past master’s jewel to Past Master J. T. Greaves. Mr. Greaves responded appropriately. Before the feast ended Worshipful Master Darby proposed that the lodge drink silently a toast to the memory of the departed. As several of the flowers of West End Masonry have passed away since the last celebration, the observ- arce was not mere form, but was felt. Baptist Revival. Last night there was genuine deep spirit- ual power evidenced at the Baptist revival. Six conversions were made. Five who pro- fessed the faith were men. Never, Mr. Elsom, the conducting revivalist, says, has he met with such strong success among men. At all previous revivals: the conver- sions among the women were largely pre- dominant. His sermon last night was based upon “The Son of Man Came to Seek } and Save That Which was Lost.” Rev. Mr. ‘Truett assisted at the service last night. Tonight the Rey. Mr. Elsom will preach a temperance sermon. The harm that liquor has done in the world—its effect upon reankind’s moral and physical being will ve fercibly shown. This will be one of the strongest effurts of the services. Protracted Meetings. Notwithstanding the unfavorable weather the interest in the protracted meetings held at Dumbarten Avenue Church con- tinues unabated. Every night a large coii- ecurse of people gather to hear the Gospel and to uphcld the pastor in his work. Last night Dr. Baldwin of Wesley Chapel preached. Tonight Rev. M. F. B. Rice, a former pastor, will preach at Dumbarton. Notes. The potato entertainment held at the Presbyterian Chapel, cn 33d street, last right, was a decided success. It was gotten up by Mrs. Clara Goldsmith for the benefit of the deserving poor of the West End. Again Valley street, Georgetown, 1s be- lieved to be afilicted with a smallpox case. ‘The people wanted it definitely understood that the Valley street at present under the eye of the health department is in Wash- ington. The Georgetown Catholic Union will give its first smcker and entertainment tomer- row evening at the Union rooms, 32d and N streets. The program that has been ar- ranged is one of excellence. es : A Social Visit. Martin Lane and Thomas McMahon, young men, live in Northeast Washington, and last night when under the influence of liquor they went away from the section of the city in which they reside and called on a friend named Newmeyer at No. 1618 Sth street. They were peaceable and or- derly when they called at the house, but the warm atmosphere inside caused tho liquor to make its work more effective, and the guests were soon engaged in a fight. ‘A member of the Newmeyer family went out to call the police, and asked the officers to hurry. “Come quick,” sald Mrs. Newmeyer, “they're killing each other.” Policemen Sweet and Bryan responded to the call, and the former, who was first to reach the house, was tossed over the fence and jumped upon by the Northeast Wash- ington citizens. He soon had out his blackjack, and suc- ceeded in subduing the belligerent men until his partner arrived, and then they were landed behind tho bars. ‘This morning they appeared before Judge Miller, where they had appeared many times before, and the judge gave them two months in jail. ———— All About Bottles. Today in the Police Court Mrs. Sarah H. Rosenzweig and John H. Schneider wero charged with having violated section 1189 of the Revised Statutes relating to the District of Columbia. The defendants are In the bottling business, and it is charged that they used stamped mineral water bot- tles belonging to Jacob Jacobson.

Se HE SENT TIDINGS. s Benjumin Hunter Had a Warning for Publie Men. Maj. Moore, chief of police, has received word of the arrest in New York of a col- ored coachman named Benjamin F. Hun- ter, about whcm the New York police had been asked to make inquiries. The police here do not know Hunter, except what they learned of him through his own writ- ings. They are certain that he is a re- ligious crank, and their opinion of the coachman is based on a letter he directed to the judges of the Supreme Court. This letter was written on tablet paper, bearing printed religious matter and a red stamp, giving notice that “the days of grace have passed,” and saying “depart from nie, for I know you not.” His address was given as No. 85 East 165th street, New York city, and the cir- culars purported to give his headquarters in this city. The letter to the Supreme Ceurt judges is as follows: Tidings—Tidmgs—Tidings. To the judges of the Supreme Court of the United States and all the members thereof: Be it, and it {s hereby known to you and all nations, languages and tongues, now living in all states and territories in the United States, that I am now chief ruler of this generation of people forever. For of all the prophets that have been before me I am the chief of them all. Thus says the Lord God, your time is out—come down and lie in the dust, for I chastised the Jews with the rod. But I will chastise you all with everlasting damnation. Amen! Amen! Amen! BENJAMIN F. HUNTER. When this letter was turned over to the police Inspector Hollinberger wrote a_let- ter to Superintendent Byrnes, in New York, asking that inquiries be made about the man, but no request was made for his arrest. The police wanted to know whether or not the mar is dangerous. It is thought that the police in New York must have concluded that the dangerous character of the mar required that he should be locked up. At present there is no charge against the colored coachman here, but there may be a charge made after further investiga- tion. Reports from New York today state that Hunte: has written crank letters to other people also. Before the election and immediately following the inauguration he wrote to Mr. Cleveland several times. eee tens ‘A Washingtonian’s Success. Mr. Homer Lind, who returned to Europe to fulfill ergagements which he had made immediately upon his graduation from the Berlin conservatory, has now signed with the Royal Carl Rosa Opera Company.

He will also create the part of Melier in the opera of “L’Attague due Moulin,” by Al- fred Pruneau, on the occasion of its first preduction in English.

Ja16-3m50d HE FELL DEAD. Cold and Hunger Emdm a Life Last Night. - An unknown man, whoseveral nights ago registered at the fourtly pelice station as James Scott, forty-nine yeags old, a native of Nova Scotia, made an effort to reach the same police station last night, but the cold and hunger had so.badly affected him that he was not able te get in the build- ing, and he fell prostrate across the fron railing in front of the locitup. A* woman who saw the man in this position notified the police and Officers Herbert and Renrick carried him into the warm: building. The police naturally supposed that Scott was under the influence of;liquor, but when they.got’in the station no evidences of liquor were to be found? Scott had prob- atly been without food. for a long time and was almost frozen. He was unconscious, and was, therefore, unable to tell the offl- cers anything concerning his home or him- self. The unfortunate man lived only a few minutes, and his body was sent to the morgue by order of the coroner. The condition of Scott’s clothing made it evident.that he had been tramping for sev- eral months at least, and the only thing he had in his pocket was a small Bible. His body will probably be buried in pot- ter’s field. —_—._—_ Our Long Experience is at Your Ser- vice. Dealers who want the finest goods take no risks with us. James F.

A friend called to see me, and Drought about one-half teaspoonful of CUTICURA, advising me to try tt, telling of himself, brothers and mother having been cured by It. I would not try it at first, although I lad been on crutches for over two weeks, and at one time I counted between twenty-five and thirty suppurating sores, and had not slept more than five hours’ in three nights. Monday morning about 4 o'clock the pain, burning and itching became so severe that I determined to try CUTICURA, thinking that if it did no good, it could not make my leg much worse, for It was as Taw as a plece of beef und as red as a beet, so I applied the CUTICURA, and in five minutes after T lay down I was aslesp.

Outside iron stairways connect the east and west ends with 7th and 9th streets and Louisiana and Pennsylvania avenues, At or abot the time this new building was com- pleted some exterprising gentlemen were negotiat- {ng for this very desirable location and new build- sing to be used as a Grand Bazaar and an adjunct to the great Central Market for the keeping and sale of every class and varlety of goods or articles so that any person entering the market grounds from Pennsylvania avenue, 7th, 9th or B streets would find in this Arcade Building, divided into 100 sections, a regular John Wanamaker store and bazsar, for which the building ts now admirably adapted. This use, however, was abandoned tem- porarily for the occupancy of the District militia, but could now be carried out by the use of the Arcade Building for a sectional variety store, and twenty sections or rooms could be easily fitted up on the first floor from the avenue, south side, next to the market proper, for flowers, with glass fronts, in which cold air could be introduced from the cold storage pipes below and warm air from the steam pipes above, each to he turned on al- ternately when required, and thus flowers and plants could be kept in this floral section of the bazaar in as fresh and safe condition until sold and delivered as if they had remained in the hot house where they were grown.
