Two Hundred Vested Choristers Par- ticipate in the Annual Celebration. ‘The twelfth annual service of St. Mark's Friendly League was iittingly celebrated last evening at Ascension Church in a beautiful choral service rendered by the union of all the vested choirs4n the city. The scene was an impressive one, with the body of the great church thronged with an immense and appreciative audience, the inner chancel occupled by the clergy and the choir stalls and front of the church filled with the hundreds of robed choristers of all ages. The chancel was neatly ceco- rated with greens and the banners of the seven choirs represented. The music was made the feature of the evenfhg, and be- sides the chanting of the psalms and ver- sicles, the program was enriched by the anthem, “Send Out Thy Light,” Gouno and Mendelssohn’s “I Wait for the Lord, the solo in which was beautifully, sung by Miss Masie Rose of St. John’s. Bishop Talbot of Wyoming and Idaho made the address, in which he spoke of the object and aim of St. Mark’s Friendly League, and the three lines along which they work— missions, charity and music. The choirs represented were Ascension, Choirmaster Francis E. Camp; St. Jonn’ W. H. Daniel; St. Paul's, D. 13. MacLeod; St. Michael's and All Angeis’, H. J. Reed; St. Mark's, J. E. Parker; St. James’, L. M. Lester, and Incarnation, 'T. C. Pole. The organist was Francis E. Camp and tpe director Wm. H. Daniel. The St. Mark’s Friendly League was organized twelve years ago in this city for the purpose of advancing the work of the church in three particular lines—mis- sions, charity and choral union. The mis- sion department embraces the sending of funds to foreign and domestic missions, and each chapter sustains a scholarship in St. Mark's School, Salt Lalt City, Utah. ‘The charity work is practical and at home, in asylums and hospitals. The service lost night is a fitting example of the remaining work of the league, the promoting of friendship and good feeling between the choirs. Since its organization the league has ex- tended to other cities in this country. The election of officers takes place this after- noon, which will probably result in re-elec- tion of present officers. They are: Rev. J. H. Elliott, presideat; Miss 5. Wilkes, secretary; Miss M. C. Dashlell, correspond- THE GOLF TOURNAMENT Members of the Washington Club-on the Link ; The Grounds Across the River—Many Players and Attractive Sport. The Easter tournament of the Washing- ton Golf Club began this morning on the club_links under most favorable auspices. A more perfect day for the sport could hardly be imagined, though, if’ any fault could be found, it was just a bit warm for the players. The comfortable club house cn the hill overtooking the river, and just heyond the Aqueduct bridge, was the scene uf a pleas- ant gathering all day long. Some of the players went over early in the morning, as 10 o'clock was the hour set for beginning the hole match, the first event of the tour- nament. From that hour on the scene upon the links was a most attractive one. It is over a mile from the club house to “far hole,” and the intervening green was dotted over with little groups cf players, wearing for the most part the red coats typical of a true golfer. “Home” is just in front of the club house, «nd from that elevation the spectators had an excellent view of the field of baitle. : There were sixteen entries for the hole match, divided into eight couples, hut sev- eral of the players were unable to show up and their games went by default. The Entries. Tha entries were as follows: Mr. John F. Leech with Mr. George M. Dunn; Mr. A. J. Parsons with Mr. J. Au- gustus Taylor; Mr. Edward F. Riggs with Mr. Charles E. Barry; Mr. Wm. Edmond Curtis with Dr. G. R. Brown; Mr. Horace Wylie with Mr. George'S. Fraser; Mr. Car- roll Mercer with Mr. George Hellen; Dr. Guy F. Whiting with Commodore Charles J. Train; Mr. James W. Lockett with Mr. Charles B, Gray. Mr. Henry May, the president of the club, did not play in the hole match, but acted instead in’ the capacity of referee. Mr. May is cne of the best golfers in this coun- try, being probably the first man ever to play the game in the United States. He has also played a great deal abroad, having won many prizes at St. Andrew's, in Scot- land; Pau, France, and on other European links. Mr. Edward F. Riggs, the secretary of the club, was early on the ground today, looking after the details of the tournament, 4&8 well as the comfort of the club's guests, A Good Morning's Work. There are nine holes on the Washington links, and as it takes eighteen to a game, it was necessary to make two rounds of the links to finish. As the distance once around is about 11-4 miles, a full game makes a very fair morning's work. The Sround was in first-class condition, al- though a little hard from the sun’s heat, and a shower would make it about perfect. Some very fair scores were made in the morning's play. During the forenoon a number of ladies drove over from town to watch the sport, and in the afternoon a substantial luncheon was served. The complete rounds of the day’s play Were not completed until quite late this afternoon. The finals will : tomorrew, bi ps DR. TONER'’S BIRTHDAY. He Will Celebrate It in Company With His Professional Associates. Dr. J. M. Toner will complete his seven- tieth year with the present month of April, and he proposes to celebrate this happy event by giving a breakfast to a number of his: professicnal brethren at his delight- ful home, on Highland Terrace. Dr. Toner, though now retired from active practice of medicine, is still closely identified with the interests of the members of that profes- sion, and his list of guests on the occasion of his birthday feast includes the surviving members of the Medical Association of the District who were in practice here when he was admitted to membership. Dr. Toner has sent a letter to his friends announcing the event, in which he says: “On the last day of this month, should my life be spared so long, I shall have completed my seventieth year. I have great reason to be thankful to a kind Prov- idence for length of days, good health, kind friends and numerous other blessings, dd desire to take note of the occurrence of the approaching anniversary by some agreeable fatercourse with the medical men who are now bearing the burden of professional re- sponsibility in ouf city. To this end I pro- Pose inviting to breakfast with me, at my residence, 1445 Massachusetts av. half-past 11 o'clock, Tuesday, April 30, 189 the surviving members of (he Medical Asso- ciation of the District of Columbia who were in practice here when I was admitted to that body. The number of my honored pecrs is not large, and the opportunities for our cver all meeting at the same time are few and growing less. “A late published list of the Medical As- sociation, containing well nigh 400 names of active members, shows but seven preceding my own on the roster. The names of these physicians appear in the following order: John I. Dyer, Samuel C. Busey, Lewis Mackall, jr.. M. V. B. Bogan, J. W. H. Lovejoy, N. S. Lincoln and S. J. Radcliffe. To eech of whom I send cordial greetings, and desire to have their company to break- fast with me at the time and place indi- cated. I deem it proper to say that I have sent am invitation card to each individual member of the association, informing them ing secretary; Miss Weisel, treasurer. All are residents of Washington. ——__.

The Clever “Players” From Philadel- phia to Appear in “Kenilworth. Washington society is all agog over the approaching visit of the University of Pennsylvania Mask and Wig Club, which will present one of its elaborate and char- acteristic entertainments at the Academy of Music here Saturday night. The play this year is described as an operatic tray- esty in two acts. It is called “Kenilworth, or Amy's Aims and Leicester's Lesson,” and is said to follow closely the historical story as immortalized by tne “Wizard of the North.” The libretto and lyrics have been written by Clayton Fotterall McMi- chael, and the music is nearly all original by E. D. Beale, a young composer of repu- tation in Philadelphia. Some remarkably beautiful scenic effects will be produced. ‘The songs are all new in “Kenilworth,” and many of them will doubtless be whistled In the streets of Washington after Saturday night. The dancing is, as usual with Mask and Wig shows, an important feature. Two absolute novelties will be of- fered in the foot ball and golf dances. A fescinating cafe chantent dance with cart wheels will be given by Mr. Steel, who is the stage director of this year’s production, and has made an immense hit in the part of Elizabeth. “Kenilworth” introduces the following characters, all taken from his- tory: Elizabeth, Amy Robsart, Janet, Leicester, Varney, Tressilliare, ' Michael Lambourne and the Duke of Sussex. There are twelve speaking parts and fifty in the cho: In addition to these the play will have specialties from the university gym- nastic team and banjo club, making, at least, one hundred people employed in’ the production. The Mask and Wig Club plays in Washington for charity, and its recep- tion, therefore, cannot fail to be both warm and cordial. Mrs. N. S. Lincoln, who has always had charge of the social end of the Philadelphia boys’ visits, reports that the interest this year is as keen as ever. The orchestra seats, which are on sale at Metz- erott’s, have been nearly all sold to prom- inent people in Washington social life, and there is every reason to expect a bigger house than ever to welcome the jolly “Wig- gers” Saturday night. = POLICE OFFICER GREED ‘vo Be Tried by Police Board for Shooting Foster. A committee from the Baptist ministers’ cenference, consisting of Revs. W. H. Brooks, J. J. Taylor, J. V. Bryand, Robert Johnson, J. T. Clerk, H. C. Robinson and W. A. Credit, called upon the Commission- ers this morning to insist upon the removal from the police force of Officer Green, for the killing of Reuben Foster, in Anacostia. The petition was referred to Maj. Moore, with instructions to proceed with the trial of Officer Green. THE OFFICIAL WEATHER MAP. EXPLANATORY NOTE: Observations taken at 8 a.m., 75th meridian time. Solid lnes are isobars or lines of equal alr pressure, drawn for each tenth of an foch. Dotted lines are isotherms or lines of equal temperature, drawn for each ten degrees. Shaded areas are regions where rain or enow has fallen during preceding twelve hours The words “High and “Low” show location of areas of high and low barometer. Small arrows fly with the wind. LOOK OUT FOR SHOWERS. Peculinr Weather Conditions—Thun- der Storms Probeble. Forecast till 8 p.m. Friday:—For the Dis- trict of Columbia and Maryland, fair, fol- lowed by increasing cloudiness and showers Friday evening or night; cooler Friday evening; variable winds. For Virginia, fair, followed by showers in southwest portion; cooler in northwest portion Friday; southwesterly winds, be- coming variable. Although no well-defined storm appears on this morning’s map, an area of eloudi- ness and rein is overspreading the southern and southwestern states, and it is likely that the rain area will extend over the mid- dle and South Atlantic states during the next’ thirty-six hours. The unusual heat for the season in this section last night and today is due to the prevailing dry southerly winds blowing out of the South Atlantic area of high barometer, and ¢. shift of wind to the west or northwest in advance of the high barometer area which appears in the rorthwest would favor the occurrence of showers, and, possibly, of thunder storms. Owing, therefore, to the heat and to the probability of a sudden cooling of the air by a shift of wind to westerly, showers may be expected in this section Friday, and may Possibly occur this evening or tonight.

Bids Opened. - The Commissioners this morning opened bids for furnishing the District with sec- ond-hand granite block. There was but one bidder—Edward Sexton. He agreed to fur- nish 185,000 second-hand block at $12.51 per 1,000, and 00 class two second-hand blocks at $5 per 1,000. The blocks are from the tracks of the Metropolitan railroad. Alleged Nuisances. A committee, ccnsisting of Messrs. Geo. Bancroft, John Sachs, Geo. P. Meyer, J. R. McClellan, E. W. Donn and W. H. Outlaw, and representing the*residents and prop- erty owners on Marion, P and bth street, called upon the Commissiouers this morn- ing to discuss nuisances. Attention was first calJed to the Tyson House stable, which wis ¢haracterized as a menace to health and life. The stable is without sewerage facilities and kept un- cleanly. At first it was a fence; then con- verted into a shed, and then a stable. The Henry, Polk and Central High Schools were in the immediate neightorhood, «nd the presence of this stable was offensive to the scholars. One part of the stable Is used as a hospital for sick horses, and dead ari- mals are taken out every day or so. At the suggestion of the Commissioners, the com- mittee promised to embody its views in a petition, together with atiidavits setting forth the existing conditions. Attention was also called to the transfer of horses for the Belt line railroad, on P streat be- tween Gth and 7th, and the Commissioners asked to examine’ the place. Building Permits. Building permits issued today were as fol- lows: J. T. Harrison, jr., and George B. Bury, trustees, to erect two two-story frame dwellings on lots 7 and 8, fronting Morris road, Anacostia; to cost $1,600. George J. Johnson, to erect five *wo-story and cellar brick buildings at 2121 to 2129 Pennsylvania avenue; to cost $12,000. Sol- omon Richardson, to erect one two-story frame dwelling cn lot 209, fronting Morris road, Anacostia; to cost $600. 17th Street Extension. Messrs. A. B. Chatfield, Lisle S. Lipscomb and J. W. Sommerville had a hearing be- fore the Commissioners this morning with reference to the extension of 17th street north of Park street. They requested that the street be widened-on the cast instead of the west, for the reason that the grade would be easier and the expense much less. On the west the grade is difficult, and if widened from that side would demolish several houses. While the Commissioners did not promise to make the change, they promised to visit the locality this afternoon and look into the situation. Made a Noise. The health officer has' been instructed to examine the complaint of Mrs. Sarah E. Jasper cf 628 Pennsylvania avenue and re- port to the Commissioners. Mrs. Jasper, in an interview with the Commissioners late yesterday afternoon, set forth that Nelson Morris rented a building immediately in the rear of her house and commenced the manufacture of ice for preserving beef. The noise of the ice machine is exasperat- ing and a great annoyance. Permit Issued. A permit was issued by the Commisston- ers yesterday to the Washington and Mt. Vernon Railway Company for excavating for the construction of their underground railway. Contract Awarded. The Cranford Paving Company has been awarded the contract for asphalt paving at $2.19 for pavement upon a 6-inch base and $1.94 for paving with asphalt upon a 4-inch base. The bid of the Washington Asphalt Block and Tile Company was also accepted for peving with asphalt block. Its bid was $1.84 per square yard for paving upon a gravel base, and $2.25 per square yard for paving upon a concrete base. Garbage Regulations. Heulth Officer Woodward has received from the printer the proof of the new gar- bage regulations, which will be made pub- lic in a few days. Unjler the new regula- tions the health officerexpects to have less trouble with the garbage than has been ex- perienced in recent years. There are no radical changes in the regulations, except a provision concerning | the private col- lectors. There is°’ a provision re- quiring these colleetors' to have on their wagons at least two signs with the word “‘gerbage” painted thereon. . In order that this provision may Be enforced soon after the promulgation of'the new regula- tions all the old permits ‘will be called in and the collectors requlrea‘to improve their wagons with paint and signs. This regu- lation applies almost exclusively to country people, and most of them”are poor persons who raise a few hogs and-garden vegetables and who have no other means of support. The garbage collected must be carted away in water-tight receptacles, as required by the old regulations, In addition to the sign, the number of the permit must be painted on the wagon. eee COMMITTEE APPOINTED. Two Genticmen to Look After Oliver P. Donn’s Interests. Judge Cox this morning disposed of the question of the appointment of a committee for the person and estate of Oliver P. Donn, by appointing Messrs. Frank T. Browning and John C. Heald as such committee. Mr. Donn was declared by a marshal’s jury last Saturday to have been of unsound mind since the 10th instant, incapable of managing his own effairs, and that finding, the unfortunate man’s daughters, Mrs. Metzger and Mrs. Dinwiddie, having with- drawn all opposition, has been- confirmed by the court. ‘This morning Mr. A. S. Worthington, on behalf of Mrs. Tcdd and Mrs. Burton, Mr. Donn’s other daughters, suggested that the American Security and Trust Company be appointed as the committee of the estate, but Mr. R. Ross Perry explained to the court that Mrs. Metzger and Mrs. Dinwid- die preferred the appointment of some per- son or persons as the committee, suggest- ing Mr. Browning as such. Judge Cox thought that the selection of Messrs. Browning and Heald would be more satisfactory in every way ds the committee of the estate, and made that appointment. Mr. Perry suggested Mrs. Metzger's ap- pointment as the committee of the person of her father, but Judge Cox, upon Mr. Worthington’s objection, appointed Messrs.

How a Discrimination in Regard to Ice Crenm Caused Trouble, The vested choirs of the Episcopal churches of this city have been engaged Yor the past two nights in a combined ser- vice of song at the Ascension Church. In- side the sacred edifice the boys of the vari- ous organizations have looked meek and have sung with fervor and sweetness. Their voices have blended together in one har- monious volume ‘of sound. After the ser- vices, however, the harmonious blending has been conspicuous by its absence. In fact, there has been war. Last night, after the singing, the boys of the visiting choirs were given ice cr2am. The boys of the home, or Ascersion choir, were, however, not asked to refresh themselves with cream. The result was inevitable. The Ascension choir waited for the others outside and then “swatted” them. A St. Michael's boy had his eye blacked, and an Ascension youth was hit in the shoulder with a stone. All day yesterday in youth- ful circles the sole topic of conversation Was the trouble of the night before and the renewal, which was accepted as a cer- tainty. The Ascension boys were aggres- sive. They announced their ability and firm intention of licking all the other vested choirs in the city. Later in the day cooler counsels prevailed and it was determined to form an alliance. After considerable diplomacy this was effected with St. John’s. The insidicus intimation was made that the night before the choirs of St. Michael and St. Paul had been furnished not only with ice cream but also with ceke. This was all that was necessary, and it was formally arranged that after the ser- vices last night St. John’s and Ascension should proceed to do up St. Michael and St. Paul. The opening number of the program was carried out with exactitude. After church the boys came together with a clash; fists were used and stones began to fly, when the police jumped in and declared peace. They arrested two young men, who, however, in the Police Court today, de- clared that they were only spectators, and were dismissed. Fire at Ivy City. This morning about 4 o'clock there was a disastrous fire at Ivy City, where two dwellings, the houses of Jerry Miles and C. W. Hearnes, were destroyed. The fire started in the house of Miles, on Provi- dence street, and soon spread to the house of Hearnes. Word was sent to the police and No. 8 Engine Company responded to a local alarm. The damage to the two houses and contents amounted to about $2,100, on which there was an insurance of $900. INDEX TO ADVERTISEMENTS.
