Revival Services in Two West Wash- irgton Churches—Other Local Notes of General Interest. John Dugan’s big livery stable at 3309 M street caught fire this morning at about 7:50 o'clock, and for a time it looked as if a conflagration would follow. This be- lief was emphasized through the existence of other buildings, frame and very inflam- mable in appcarance, immediately adjoin- ing. No one knows how the fire originated. Mr. Benj. Harper, who lives opposite, was the first to discover the breaking out. There Was no one about the building at the time, but Mr. Shipman, one of the men of the stable. As soon as he became ac- quainted with the situation, he rushed to the stalls on he upper floor and led out valuabie hors... 1 the meantime the fire began to show itself in great forks, and dense volumes of smoke belched fram the upper windows and doors. Neighbors and firemen. were soon on the scene, and from the Prospect and M street entrances the horses on the lower floor were rushed out. About thirty were taken in safety. The fire appears to have originated in the har- ness room, on the second floor, where was stored a large number of carriages and vehicles of all descriptions. None of these were taken out and all suffered some dam- age. Some were costly fixes. Three en- gines worked on the scene. When Lewis Collins, the proprietor of the adjoining frame livery stables, saw the probability of a big fire, he rushed all his horses out and into the fenced in lot at the northeast corner of Prospect and 33d streets. The Collins buildings, however, did not share in the loss. Mr. Dugan will lose about $1,000 through the building, and $50 through the damage to the stock. Mass Meeting. On March 11 there will be a mass mect- ing of the people about Williamsport to discuss the building of a new bridge across the Potomac at that point. One is badly needed there to facilitate southern traffic. The projected bridge, which has already been considerably talked of, is estimated to cost $30,000. There have been subscribed on paper to this amount over $5,000. It is believed that the project will meet with success. Wealthy men, who would be very practically benefited, are enthusiastic. The meeting will be held in Goddard’s Hall, Williamsport. A Bold Thief. Richaré Active, a colored lawbreaker and leutenant to ‘Red Bill,” the general of the “Herring Hill” gang of offenders, carried his offenses on Sunday into the Mt. Zion Church. While Vinnie Bracken- burg was looking into her pocketbook for some change to put into the collection basket this sacrilegious thief hurried to her side, snatched the purse from her hands and bolted into the street. He got away with but ninety cents. Before he had time to squander it Officers Conlon and Passan took him in. Revival Services. Beginning this evening at 7:30 o’clock a series of revival services will be held at the West Street Presbyterian Church, Rev. Dr. Alexander, pastor, to continue until Friday, inclusive. The Rev. D. W. Skellen- ger of the Sixth Presbyterian Church will conduct the initial service. Other minis- ters who will assist are Rev. Howard Wil- bur Ennis and Rev. J. Russell Verbrycke. The latter will speak on Friday, when the service preparatory to the communion will be celebrated. ‘The Rev. Dr, Seaton of Ebenezer Church is cenducting a series of revivals at his church. Dr. Seaton is recognized as one of the ablest men of the colored ministry, and his church has been filled during these meetings. Notes. The long, heavy steps that for years have led from Prospect street past the Prospect cottage and down to M street at the northern end of the Aqueduct bridge have been removed permanently to make room for Washington and Georgetown rail- road excavations. People of this vicinity are very desirous of having these steps while yet intact removed to the foot of 27th street, in order to give a convenient en- trance to M street. Mrs, Virginia Nichols Hollingsworth was laid to rest in Oak Hill cemetery at noon yesterday, The most beautiful and heart- felt tribute that could be paid to a de- ceased friend was the attendance of a large number of her school day friends, whose hair had long been silvered by the frost of many winters, Forty-one persons were received into full membership in Congress Street Methodist Protestant Church last Sunday. The church is now in better condition than it has been for many years. The congregations are very large and every department is well sustained. The Catholic Hibernian ball at Linthicum Hall last night was a repetition of the suc- cesses of previous years. There was a large and merry crowd. The grand march was led by Mr. J. F. Custard and Miss Kate Bateman. Mr. Custard was also master of ceremonies. The attendance ard the en- joyment indicated that the popularity of the Hibernians is increasing with the age of the organization. ——.—__ CARROLL INSTITUTE, Annual Dinner and nan Address by Mur. Satolll. The annual dinner of the Carroll Insti- tute was held last evening. The tables were arranged as a gridiron, and appro- priately decorated. Mr. George Bogus, president of the institute, occupied the head of the board. At his right were Mgr. Satolli, the apostolic legate, and his secre- tary, Dr. Rooker. At his left was Rev. Dr. Stafford cf St. Patrick’s Church. Close at hand were Drs. Gorman and Garrigan, Mer. Sharretti of the Catholic University, Dominic { Murphy, Charles Tracey, Capt. McKevette, Mr. E. J. Hannan, Mr. John B. Brady, Mr. M. I. Weller, Mr. H. W. Sohon and Mr. Charles W. Handy. When the last course had been disposed of Pres- ident Bogus, in a pleasant speech, bade welcome to the guests. Mr. William De Lacey, as toastmaster, called upon Mgr. Satolli to speak to the toast, “His holiness, the pope; true dignity is his, whose tran- quil mind has raised above the things be- low.” The response cf the papal legate was read by his secretary, Dr. Rooker. He referred to the recent encyclical as an im- perishable monument in the history of the American church and the nation. The pape and America were in perfect harmony. Having acted in confcrmity with the de- sires of the holy father, he did not fear the judgment of the public and of pos- terity. Loyalty to church and country, justice and charity, characterized papal diplomacy, said the speaker. The church, he said, had always been the fruitful mother of social institutions and benefi- cence. The mass of non-Catholics in the country had appreciated the words of the encyclical, and understood that the holy father recognized their goodness of heart and kindly dispositions. The state had nothing to fear, he continued, from the ex- istence of the Catholic Church, but every- thing to hope. The church stood for inde- pendence, constitutional liberty and the liberty of political parties. There was nothing to fear from the education given by the Catholic Church to the Catholic youth. Father Stafford responded to the toast, “Our country.” He said that the Catholic Church was synonymous with liberty in this country, and that the first free as- sembly was that of Catholic Maryland. (ther Speakers. Mr. Dominic I. Murphy was the next speaker, on “Washington as a Literary Center.” Mr. John J. Dolan spoke of Car- roll Institute, Mr. Edward J. Walsh gave a recitation, Mr. John Boyle referred to the press in a toast on that subject, Mr. J. Travis Cocker gave a recitation, Mr. Ed- ward J. Redmond paid a tribute to sister societies, Mr. James A. Mahony gave the third recitation of the evening, and Mr, James F. Shea responded to “The ladies.” Signor Mariano Maina, formerly director of the choir at St. Patrick's, concluded the entertainment with a song. ‘There ts no excuse for al pear in society with a grisly beard since the “Eetrodues tion of Buckingbam's Dye, which colors a natural brown or black. SSS SELLING FISH, An Opinion on What Constitutes Pro- duce Rendered, The attorney for the District today ren- dered an opinion on the following question; “Are persons bringing and selliag fish from Wwagors or carts required to obtain a license from, the District of Columbia as produce dealers, trading at large?” The clause of the license act referreq to, provides, among other things, that produce dealers shall pay annually $25, and that every person whose business it is to buy and sell produce, fish, meats or fruits from wagons or carts, stalls, stores or stands, shall be regarded as a produce dealer, The question submitted by Assessor. Trimble, says the attorney, would seem to have been disposed of by: the Supreme Court of the District, in the case of the District agt. Oyster, in which the court construed this provision of the license law, and in giving its judgment held that Oyster and Daly, who sold butter and eggs, were Hable. Justice Merrick ruled that the word “pro- duce” has no ee exact and technical meaning. It may be used in @ larger or Tore restricted sense, but it must be no- ticed as to what the habits and usages society are, and what has = tice with regard to it, so as to give an in. terpretation to this word which is not a technical one uader the law. In that as- pect the court had no difficulty in determin- ing that the words “produce dealer,” as used in the license law of the District of Columbia, which says that produce dealers shall pay $25 annually, and every person whose business it is to buy and sell pro- duce, fish, meats and fruits from wagons and carts, shall be regarded as a produce dealer, and apply to one who brings eggs and butter to vend in the market, as much as to one who brings only ccreals or frults or what is ordinarily called “garden stuff.” = ed Lopes on the attorney, the question ry ie assessor shoi - Swered in the affirfative. rd BORN.
