20 oo SUBURBAN NEWS ANACOSTIA, ‘There was another exciting time in Ana- costia. when a portion of Harrison street gave way beneath a horse and wagon yes- terday afternoon, just before 4 o'clock. The cave-in was apparently a genuine earthquake, and a few superstitious per- sons thought the town doomed. The hole in the street proved to be only about four feet deep, twenty feet long and about ten feet wide. In speaking of the affair, Mr. W. J. Jett, who was riding in the wagon at the time, stated that he was driving leis- urely along, the horse taking his time, When, without warning, the horse sank into the ground, then he felt the earth giv- ing way behind him, and the next thing the wagon was partly under the earth's crust. An alarm was given, and, as the affair happened directly in front of the Station house, several police officers rushed to the assistance of the man and his team, After working several hours with rope and derrick the hole was freed of its burden nd an examination begun. It developed that a service pipe, carrying water from the main pipe, had bursted about a month ago, the time being known, as it was about that time that water ceased in the resi- dence of Mr. J. F. Feddon, at 25 Monroe street, whose house was nearly in front. The stream of water thus turned loose un- der ground soon loosened the earth and caused the cave-in. Workmen were put to work this morning to remedy the defective Pipe, and later the hole was filled in by workmen, under Mr. C. F. Walson. Mr. P. J.

The Dawsonville Literary Socicty held its fifth meeting at the residence of Mr. Clinton Allnutt, the guests being received by Mrs. Ailnutt, assisted by Mr. Duvall Chambers.

Mr. Benjamin W. Allnutt has commenced the construction of a new residence on the site of the one recently destroyed by fire on his farm, near Dawsonville. There appears to be considerable differ- ence of opinion among the citizens of this Place in regard to the best manner of rais- ing the necessary revenue for the purchase of apparatus for extinguishing fires. Some are in favor of raising the sum by volun- tary subscription, while others favor an in- crease in the rate of municipal taxation for the purpose. It is stated that an in- crease of 10 cents on the hundred dollars for the space of two years would yield a sum ample for the purpose. The advocates of the latter plan claim that as all prop- erty will receive additional protection, the owners should not object to the additional burden for a short time. At the meeting to be held this evening this branch of the sub- ject is likely to lead to considerable discus- sion. Rev. D. J. Santmyer of the Free Metho- dist Church will hold services in the Union Chureh, Hunting Hill, on Sunday at 10:30 a.m., and at Avery Chapel at Pp. m. Mr. David H. Dawson, secretary of the Russell Creek Coal Company of West Vir- ginia, is visiting his parents in this county. The appropriation of $125,000 by the late Congress to be used in raising the height of the Aqueduct dam at Great Falls gives great satisfaction to the people residing in that section of the county, as it is likely to greatly increase business during the spring and summer.

F., held their regular meeting in Takoma Hall Thursday night, with a goodly representa- tion. After routine business resolutions were passed reducing the monthly dues to $$ and increasing the fee for initiation to $20. The committee on entertainment reported among other plans in view for the near fu- ture a fancy dress hall and supper. The turkey supper given Tuesday night by the Ladies’ Aid Society of the Presby- terian Church will result in an addition of about thirty dollars to their treasury. Mr. Wm. Skinner is making but slow im- provement, his illness from pneumonia now havirg continued for a month. Ex-Mayor Enoch Maris returned today from a three weeks’ visit to his father in Indiana. The opera to be given in Takoma Hall tonight, under the auspices of the Public Welfare Association, should attract a good audience. Mrs. Dr. H. E. Bennett has entirely re- covered from her recent illness, and spent a couple of days during the week with relatives in Washingto! —_— KENSINGTON. Although the spring municipal election of Kensington is several weeks away, the political robins have already begun to chirp. Last year at the first election since the village was incorporated an effort was made to disregard party lines and nomi- nate a single citizens’ ticket. The pln was unsuccessful, for a new ticket made its’ appearance on the éve of the election, and the feeling engendered by the hot contest has not entirely died away. A proposition is on foot to have each can- didate for mayor or the council announce himself as such by a deposit of fifty cents with the town clerk, that officer to print the ticket thus named a week before elec- tion. This is in general the plan adopted by the democratic electors throughout the county, but its adoption seems to be doubt- ful. A list of voters living within the cor- poration has been made out, in which both parties have about equal strength, but personal and other considerations will make it ‘a free-for-all race. Thomas R. Martin, the present mayor, has declined to become a Candidate for re-election, owing to the press of private interests. William H. Mannakee, democrat, now a council- man, is understood to be out for nomina- tion as mayor. George Peter, agent of the Baltimore and Ohio, a democrat, and a councilman, has announced his intention to make the race. Dr. John L. Lewi: democrat, is also spoken of in this connec- tion, and also for councilman, as is E. J. Hardesty. Among the republicans the two most prominently mentioned for the mayorality are Dr. R. B. Detrick and Marion Dorian, but neither one has an- nounced a definite intention of becoming a candidate. Mr. J. H. Fishback is intend- ing to make the run for re-election for councilman, while George W. Duvall is a new candidate for that office. A private caucus to select nominees on both sides is a probable event in the near future. Rev. Robert M. Moore, being absent at- tending the Methodist conference at Baiti- more, Rev. G. W._T. Wright: will occupy the pulpit in St. Paul’s M. E. Church on Sunday morning next. Mr. A. M. Proctor of Capitol View met with an accident from an explosion of his furnace a few days ago. He had en- deavored to coax up a low firé by means of a cupful of coal oil. Some momtnts later, when he opened the furnace door, he was met with a sudden burst of flames, which burned his clothes, the right side of his face and his right hand. —_—--_ LANGDON. Dr. and Mrs. G. W. Warren and son and Miss Alice Carroll were guests of Mr. Wil- ton Harvey of 22d street. Miss Lillian Grimes has returned to her home from a visit to her cousins, the Misses Grimes of Queen’s Chapel road.

Platt; recitation, Mr. Oscar Harvey; duet, Miss Clara Harvey, and Miss Hattie ac- npanied her by whistling; reading, Mrs. Baker; duet, Mrs. C. A. Baker and A. M. Dewey. The chief templar then appointed Mr. J. R. Stoll to prepare the program for the good of the order for the next meeting, Friday, March 15, Owing to the indisposition of some mem- bers and the absence of others, the Wo- man’s Association omitted one meeting, but will convene on the 28th of March, at Sun- nyside, with Mrs. Mary Osborn hostess.

Spangler is chairman, composed of the members of the congregation of the Luther Memorial Church is making arrangements to intro- duce some new features in the active work Hof that church. It is proposed to establish in the chapel which adjoins the church a church parlor, having a library and a read- ing room, the latter supplied with periodi- eal literature. Provision will be made for educational classes and also courses of lectures, readings, concerts and other en- tertainments. The committee has decided to fit up a large room as a gymnasium, and in the basement there will be space for a bowling alley. A council of the Brotherhood of St. An- drew has been organized in Alexandria and the following officers have been elected: Wm. W. Parker, president; Wm. H. Mc- Cuen, vice president; John W. Herndon, secretary; Wallace H. Fawcett, treasurer, and Rev. Samuel A. Wallace, chaplain. The council consists of the following chapters: Virginia Seminary (No. 489), Grace (No.611), Christ (No. 622), Pohick GNo. 962) and st. Paul (No. 1199). Arrangements have been made for the first pubic meeting, which will be held on the first Tuesday in April, after which the meetings will be held bi- monthly. The vestry of Trinity P. E, Church has appointed a committee of governors for the parish hall, who have the entire su- pervision and control of the hall and its uses. They are as follows: Messrs. Henry A. Lockwood, chairman; Theo. O. Ebaugh and George Watts. the Epworth The badge adopted for League convention in Philadelphia fs con- sidered very pretty and appropriate. It consists of an Epworth League pin, sur- rounded by a halo, or sunburst. The upper portion of the Maltese cross has the word “Philadelphia,” and the lower “May 23-26, 1895,” while in the circle are the words “Fourth general conference, District Ep- worth League convention.”” In the center is the liberty bell, surrounded by seven five-pointed stars. The emblem is the work of Mr. T. S. Leach, secretary of the Phila- delphia committee. The Parish Aid of St. Mark’s P.E. Church is engaged diligently in soliciting subscrip- tions and obtaining money in other ways toward reducing the debt on the church. Nearly $1,000 has been secured, after only a few months’ of work. The Baltimore conference of the M. E. Church South, which will meet in the course of two or three weeks at Mt. Ver- non Church, will select a minister to fill an office that is much desired, viz., the editor- ship of the Baltimore Christian Advocate, the church organ. The local committee has about completed its arrangements for the reception of the visitors. The congregation of the Ninth Street Christian Church observed the past Sunday as their annual missionary Sunday, and quite a large collection was taken up; rev. Mr. Bagby, the pastor, having preached his sermon on missions the Sabbath before. Tuesday evening Rev. Dr. Henry M. Field delivered an entertaining lecture before the Men’s League of the First Presbyterian Church on the “Barbary States.” The nar- ration of some of his adventures created much interest. The E Street chapter of the Dorcas So- elety has formally transferred $2,100 to the vestry of Trinity Church. This amount has been raised in the last few years, mak- ing a total of $3,100 in cash that has been given through and by this organization to- ward the parish hall building. The annual meeting of the Ladies’ Mis- sicrary Society of the Fourth Presbyterian Church was held last Monday at the home of Mrs. Charles F. Shafer. The session lasted all day,, with the exception of an in- termissfon at noon, when a dainty repast was served in the dining room. In the review of the work of the year, it was reported that contributions were large- ly in excess of preceding years. Officers were elected as follows: President, Mrs. Joseph T. Kelly; first vice president, Mrs. H. P. Viles; second vice president, Mrs. G. W. Babcock; treasurer, Mrs. A. B. Kelly: recording secretary, Mrs. W. H. Stevens; corresponding secretary, Mrs. W. S. Stock- bridge, and secretary of literature, Mrs. F. M. Barnes. The question of a successor to Rev. M. Ross Fishburn, assistant to Rev. Dr. New- man, pastor of the First Congregational Church, is as yet undecided. The proba- bility is that an assistant will not be se- cured until next fall, at least. The lecture Rev. Dr. Teunis S. Hamlin was to have given before the Christian En- deavor Society and Epworth League on the subject “The Effect of Early Environment” will probably not be given until late this spring. On Tuesday, the 2d of April, the Wash- ington presbytery of the Presbyterian Church will hold its spring meeting in the Gunton Temple Memorial Church, on 14th street. Reports will be received and com- missioners selected to the general assembly of the church, which meets at Pittsburg in May. —_.—__ John L. Fitch, the Painter, Dend. The landscape painter, John L. Fitch, died at his home in Yonkers on Tuesday morning. Mr. Fitch, who was fifty-nine years old, was born in Hartford, Conn. His professional life was spent in Hartford and in New York city. He was an associate of the National Academy, having been elected in 1870. His largest picture, “In the Woods,” was shown at the Philadelphia centennial exposition in 1876. Among his paintings exhibited at the National Acad- emy were “A Mountain Brook,” “The Out- let,” “In the Canon, Granville, Mass.,” “Waiting for a Bite,” “A Stray Sunbeam,” “Autumn” and “Twilight on John’s Brook.” The Biggest Goose Got the Job. From the Pall Mall Gazette. I heard the other day an amusing tale of a certain well-known English nobleman, who had imported two emus with the hope of breeding from them, and on leaving his estate for town left also strict injunctions that the greatest care should be taken of the lady emu, if she produced the desired egg or eggs. The egg arrived in due course, but, as artists have found before now, the lady declined to “sit.” The stew- ard, however, was an ingenious man, and thought of a substitute, but his powers of composition were by no means on a par with his inventiveness, and he announced the interesting event to his master in the following terms: “The emu has laid an egg, but we are in a great difficulty, as she would not sit on it. I did what I thought was best, and in your Icrdship’s abserice I-have placed the egg under the biggest goose on the estate.” Expectant Mothers Find the Electropoise indispensable as a relief from Nausea and other ills.
