Chief Johnson of the bureau of engrav- ing and printing yesterday addi ed a let- ter to the Commissioners, in which he urged that before tinal action was taken on the subject of reciprocal transfers some arrangement be made between the Wash- ington and Georgetown and the Beit Line Railroad Companies by which the employes of the bureau might receive the benefit of cheaper rate in transferring from the one line to the other at the intersection of Pennsylvania avenue and Mth street. —_~—.— There Was No Meeving. ‘The severe weather last night prevented the holding of the regular monthly meet- ing of the East Washington Citizens’ As- sociation. At 8 o'clock there were two members of the association and ‘hree re- porters In the hall, and the secretary id he thought there would be no meeting held this month. — The Minister Scored. Rev. James Gaines, a colored man who says he gets no salary for preaching the Gospel, was In Judge Miller's court today, charged with essaulting a colored man named Alfred Rummels. The proof show- ed that the minister had the right to re- move from the gas house ashes, in which are small pieces of coke. He got them for use in making a walk to his house, and be- cause Rummels was picking a few pieces of the coke to use at home to keep his childzen warm, the preacher objected, and they had trouble. Judge Miller said he could not find from the proof that the preacher was guilty of assault. “put,” sald the judge, “when so many people are suffering, it was no moro than human that you ehould have permitted this man to pick up a few pieces of coke. While there was no assault, it was certain- ly a piece of inhumanity.’ The charge ts dismissed, and I think you had better preach some other kind of gospel.” panics He Went Down. Adolphus Miller and Lizzie Lancaster, a young colored couple, appeared before Judge Miller today to have the judge set- tle their differences. Miller, who was for- merly in tha policy business, and the wo- man have known each other in the “DI- vision,” as well as in South Washington, and until last night they were intimate friends. Then they met in a saloon and had a fight.

The Soup House Dispenses Comfort to Many—Notes of Local and Gen- eral Interest to All Citizens. A number of wagons were abandoned last tight on the roads about town, countrymen unhooking the attached horses and leading them home. The snow drifts made the country thoroughfares impassable. On the Tenleytown electric car line the snow was P‘led up in several places to the height of six feet. Transportation was impossible, and all cars were turned in. As fast as one drift would be cleared away another would take its place. Car men suffered in trying to keep the road open to the public. The line runs through a country that offers no obstruction to the drifting of snow. The Bethesda line shared the conse- quences of the storm with the Tenleytown road. So did the Glen Echo, The latter will probably be longer inactive than the other two, owing to its position between a line of hills, and the size and number of the crifts. It will require work to clear the Glen Echo tracks. On 35th street this morning, about 8:30 o'clock, two children got caught in a drift rear the corner of S street. They got themselves so deep in it that a step could not be taken either forward or backward. ‘They screamed and a colored man came to their assistance. So blinding was it last night that a gentleman residing on_the Ridge road, some distance above the New Cut, in walking home, wandered off on the Conduit for a full half mile before he lecated himself. Georgetown telephone and telegraph wires Were injured by the storm. ‘The Soup Houses. The demand for soup at the dispensary here has called for the setting up of another kettle. Mr. John Blundon attend- ed to the matter this morning. Tickets for soup have been left at the office of the First Co-operative Building Association and at other prominent offices in town. There the worthy poor may get them on application. While tickets are not neces- y to obtain soup, the system has been adopted to largely get rid of the “bums” who take advantage of scup dispensaries when possible. Two boilers and a keitle will now be made up full of soup daily. Keeps Going. For the first time in many montks there is no regular transportation to the keno shops west of the aqueduct. The passen- ger boat has been locked in at her wharf. In spite of this, though, and the conse- quent discomforts the gambling head- quarters, the Virginians say, opened this morning for business. Players went up on foot to hazard their money and their nerves on the game of chance. Fears for the Dam. Apprehension is felt for the safety of the coffer dam about the fourth aqueduct pier. It cannot help but be injured on the occa- sion of the thaw that will follow the break- ing up of the ice and its forceful dash down the river, old citizens say. Its de- struction is certain if the hills and moun- tains of the Upper Potomac send down any great quantity of water on the thawing of the snow and ice that now covers them. A jam at the aqueduct will bring positive destruction. A very gradual thaw and a very gradual passing off of the ice and water will alone permit the dam to remain intact, some say. Notes. Miss Helen Dunlop has gone to New Or- leans for a two morths’ stay among rela- tives. Mr. John Kreuger of the Foxall road, an aged man, was yesterday sent to the ‘ashington Asylum Hospital on the rec- ommendation of Dr. Birdsall. —-- GOT HIS MONEY. Sam Sing Braved the Storm With Satisfactory Results. Policeman Bell of the fifth precinct made Sam Sing wade through the snow this morning from his laundry on Sth street southeast to the Police Court to answer a charge of having a sign in front of his place in violation of law. When Sam and his interpreter reached court they were suffering from the cold and the appearance of his costume called forth the suggestion that he put his upper garment in his trou- sers. Sam had been required to deposit 10 collateral at the police station, and he had no idea of letting it go by default, and so he braved the storm and reached the court in safety. Sam told the court through his interpre- ter that he had removed the sign. The policeman said that the sign was a small one, but it was attached to the porch in front of his laundry, and other mer- the celestial because they had been made to remove their signs. Judge Kimball explained that he could not have the sign attached to the realty, but he could make a portable sign of it and use it if he keeps it within the legal limit. Sam got his money back and returned home. —_—>__ At All News Stands. The Evening Star’s Almanac and Hand- book is on sale at all news stands. 25c. mag Some Small Fires. When it was apparent that there would be a heavy snow fall last evening Chief Parris of the fire department gave orders that an extra horse go with each engine in event of a fire. As a rule the fire alarms during severe weather are more numerous thar during milder weather, for the reason that almost everybody is en- deavoring to have the fires in their homes as hot as possible to keep their houses warm, and overheated stoves and furnaces cause small fires. Not long after the order was given by Chief Parris an alarm was sounded from box 24, for a small blaze in Chase & Bro.’s carpet cleaning mili, at the 7th street wharf. ‘This was a long run for several com- panies, and when the mill was reached, it was learned that the blaze had been ex- tinguished by persons employed there. No damage was done. Two hours later an alarm sounded from box 24 again called out several companies of the department. This time there was @ bright blaze in the stable at M M. E. Divvers’ wood yard, corner of 3d and P streets northwest. There were eight horses in the stable, and the man in charge had left everything in good order when he left there a short while before the flames were discovered. The fire caused considerable excitement, and neighbors succeded in res- cuing five of the animals, while the re- maining three perished. The loss is esti- mated at $1,000, which is partially covered with insurance. This morning about 7:20 o'clock there was an alarm turred /in from box for fire In the se of W. B. Lord, No. 1120 K street southeast. A defective flue caused be fire, which resulted In a loss of about 25. ee A Limited Edition.

Last night's storm had its effect on the habitual violators of the law, and those who have homes were satisfied to stay in them. The many tramps in the city were pretty well provided for, and only a few of them were forced to seek shelter in the Pelice stations. At the second precinct three able-bodied men, strangers in the city, appeared and asked permission to stay until morning. They were accom- modated, and this morning they were driven through the snow to the Police Court, where there were only six members of Judge Kimball's procession. ‘When th> three men, answering the names Otto Schmidt, John Wagner and Frank Miller, appeared,at the prison rail the clerk read to them a charge of vagrancy, in which it was alleged that they were liable to become chargeable to the District as paupers. “Are you guilty or not guilty?” the clerk asked them. ‘We are guilty.” ‘What's the trouble with these men?” the judge wanted to know. “They came to the station last night,” =< a policeman, “and asked for lodg- ings." “Do they belong here?” “No, sir; they are strangers, an night they said they were homeles: “Then,” said the court, “I am not going to turn them out in the snow.” They were given ten days on the farm. His First Offense. Thomas Washington, a young colored man, wes in the procession because of his conduct on the street last night. Tom's country cousin is visiting him,and last evening he took him out to give him an idea of the extent of a snow storm in the city. While out seeing the town Tom indulged in a little spirits and then wanted to ride home. He hailed a snow plow, and, of course, the driver would not stop for him. ‘This angered him, and he directed a volley of profanity at the driver of the team. “He's a man of family,” was Police man Thompson's frank statement, “and I believe this is the first time he has been arrested.” “I hope your honor will forgive me this time,” he said. “When were you last arrested?” “Never before.” His personal bonds were taken. “This nan came to the station last night and begged me to have him sent down, said Policeman Mahl. He was talking last about a colored man named John Johnson. “de said he had no home,” the officer added. “Where do you belong?” the court asked. “I belong here,” was his response. “Any place to go?” ‘Anything to ent?” “Not a thing. “You may have thirty days.” Had a Row. The last man in the procession was a young colored man, named Benjamin Pope. He figured in a row in a saloon last night, and even after being placed under arrest he continued to use profanity. This 1s what the policeman said, but the prisoner denied it. Judge Kimball took the policeman’s word fo the case and fined Pepe $10 or thirty lays. ad Confederate Veterans. At a meeting of the Confederate Veter- ans’ Association last evening, Dr. Malo- ney presiding, it was explained by the president of the association that the publi- cation last Sunday of a purpose on the part of the association to tender Dan. Em- mett, the author of ‘Dixie,’ a benefit had not been authorized by the association. He thought tie idea a good one, and desired an expression of opinion by the associa- tion in the matter. The question was then discussed, it transpiring that the associa- tion was at the present time able to re- lieve only those for whom it was the pu pose of the association to provide, and un- til those nad been relieved it would be un- wise to assume new and other responsibil- ities, The matter was therefore laid aside until some later meeting. i ‘The chair laid before the meeting < com- munication from the Union Veteran Le- gicn, urging that the two associations unite in an effort to secure the es h- ment of a national park at Appomattox, Virginia. After resolutions of sympathy for Gen. Heth in his present illness Pad been unan- imously adopted, the ad: bility of ad- mitting sons of confederate veterans to membership in the association was dis- cussed, but the association adjourned be- fore taking action, Union Lodge. Union Lodge, No. 22, K. of P., had her usual quota of members present last Wed- nesday evening, in spite of the extreme cold weather. There was considerable business on hand, the conferring of rank and other matters of interest to the lodge. c. C. J. C. Yost, in presenting the past chancellor’s jewel to A. E. Coquard, made @ very neat little speech in commendation of his efforts in behalf of the lodge and of the credit due him in passing successively through the chairs to the position of past chancellorship Mr. Coquard accepted the-badge of his rank, and made a few appropriate remarks in appreciation of the honor bestowed on him.

Argo Lodge will be represented by A. J. Heilbrun, N. Weill. N. S. Meyer, Louis Hirsh and AMUSEMESTS. New National Theater—There was noth- ing to cause surprise im the facility with which so gentle andsweet a Parthenia as Julia Marlowe-Taber made at the National Theater last night subdued the barbaric nature of her Ingonsar. :The play is one of the most beautiful of dramatic poems, and the successful interpretation of the leading feminine role brings inte special require- ment the natural graces with which the star is so amply endowed. Mr. Taber’s In- gomar was an entirely: praiseworthy per- formance, and the ‘audience was enthu- siastic in its appreciatien, although the auditorium revealed ‘the fact that a blizzard when it sets out to block the affairs of a city remorselessly refuses to discriminate in favor of dramatic art. Lectures on Buddhism.—A new course of lectures, which has become Very popular,is the course of four at thé Columbian Uni- versity. The second lecture of this course will be delivered at the university tomor- row afternoon at 4: o'clock by Prof. Thomas Rhys Davids, the subject being “The Essence of Buddhism.” Miss Jennie O'Neill Potter—Miss Jennie O'Neill Potter has postponed the first per- fermance of “Which?” until tomorrow evening on account of the weather.

Colburn and Miss Arleville Pitt- man. Bischoff Concert Postponed.—A great many persons will be disappointed by the announcement that the Bischoff concert, which was to have been given at the Con- gtegational Church this evening, has been postponed. At the same time, the pleasure of this entertainment may be held in an- ticipation, since the committee in charge will arrange an early date to give the pub- lic, with the program as announced for tonight. The Grand Opera Sale.—The purchasing line for season tickets for the grand opera began to form at 6 o'clock last night, and notwithstanding the terrible storm, fifty or more stood it till morning. ‘The sale opened at 9 o’clock and was the la est in the history of Washington. Only scats for the entire season are being sold now.

Haywood and Miss Hay, who entered into their roles with zest. An original poem, tory of the Banners,” delivered by the president, Maj F. I. Willis, was quite a masterly effort. The club testified their full appreciation in a decided manner. Dr. Klemm made a few felicitous remarks. Miss Reichenbach’s vocal numbers were Spring Song” and “The Merry Lark Mr. Duncan Haywood’s recitation of “Our Folks" was the best bit of emotional work ever done by this talented gentleman; Anita Hendrie’s recitations of the olink,” “Goblins” and “Larca’ were all de- lightfully fine; Mr. S.

David Hagerty Expires at the Theater Last Night. The life of David Hagerty, the well- known and popwar restaurant man at 1203 Pennsylvania avenue northwest, suddenly reached an end last evening in the Acad- emy of Music, a few minutes before the beginning of the regular performance. Mr. Hagerty was in the best of health when he entered the theater, in company with Dr. L, LeFriedrich, Mr. A. A. Friedrich, Mr. L. R. Vinton and Mr. James M. Hodges. The party was in a jovial mood as the orchestra commenced the overture, but the condition of affairs was changed to con- sternation when, without warning, Mr. Hagerty gasped and died. Dr. Friedrich attempted to succor the expiring man, but his services were of no avail. Apoplexy was the cause of the demise. As quietly as possible the r2mains were removed to the ladies’ toilet room, and later to an undertaking establishment on F street. Information of the sad incident was conveyed to the family of Mr. Hag- erty, who reside at the number mentioned. The news caused pathetic grief to the wife and three children, Miss Verona, Harry and Frank. Mr. Hagerty was bern in Ireland, and was brought to this country in 1845, when but four years of age. His father con- ducted a grocery establishment at 9th and N streets, and in 1871 David entered busl- ness for himself cn Uth street opposite the Treasury Department, in conjunction with Mr. Welcker. Later he removed to 7th and E streets, then to Louisiana ave- nue near 4 1-2 street, ard in 1882, on the sudden death of his brother Frank, took charge of the establishment of the latter at 1203 Pennsylvania avenue. Mr. Hag- erty was extremely popular, and the an- nouncement of his death proved a great shock to hundreds of friends. ‘The remains were taken to the late home of the deceased today. Funeral services are to be held tomorrow morning at 9 o’elock in St. Patrick’s Church, and inter- ment will probably be made in Mount Oli- vet cemecery. —— Fuperal of Charles Thompson. The funeral of the late Charles Thomp- son, a member of the District bar, took place from his late residence, 1731 R street, at 3 o'clock yesterday, the Rev. James F, Mackin of St. Paul’s Catholic Church officiating. The remains were placed in the vault of the Rock Creek cem- etery, to be later interred in the family burial ground. The pall-bearers were Sen- ator Eppa Hutton,Jefferson Chandler, Col. W. H. Ciarke, Maj. W. C. McIntire, Capt. W. B. Risinger, W. B. Hopkins, frank Con- ger and Lawrence Gardner. ——— W. T.
