A painful accident happened to Miss Grace Lynch, the leading lady of the Stuart Robson Company, appearing at the Grand Opera House, yesterday afternoon on the Conduit road, a short distance this side of the Chain bridge. Miss Lynch, in company with a friend, had gone for a drive. At the point mentioned her escort alighted from the buggy to correct a de- fect in the harness, but just then a sharp explosion at a near-by quarry frightened the horse, which immediately started off at a gallop. Selecting the best place pos- sible Miss Lynch jumped from the buggy to save herself from being hurled with the buggy down an embankment. She suffered several cuts about the face and bruises on her right hip. Miss Lynch was removed to her temporary residence, 1204 K street northwest, and a physician sum- mored. The actress was unable to appear last evening, but expects to resume her Guties at the performance tonight. —_.__ Newshoys’ Home Bequest. The officers of the Newsboys’ and Chil- dren’s Aid Society have filed a friendly suit in equity against Louisa D. Lovett and Ida Carson of Philadelphia, the executors of the estate of the late Anna M. Maulsby, who bequeathed $30,600 to the society as a memorial to her husband, George Maulsby. The object of the suit is to have the court instruct the officers of the society us to the application of the money. The court is asked to grant an order permitting the society either to purchase improved real estate or purchase unimproved real estate for the purpose of erecting a suitable build- ing. An offer of a suitable piece of real estate has been made, at what the society thinks is an advantageous figure. ———__ Suit for Divorce. Press dispatches from Pittsburg announce the service of papers there on Mrs. William Paul Brown, who ts made the defendant in a divorce suit brought by her husband, W. P. brown, of this city.

ISEVENTY-SIX YEARS The Order of Odd Fellows to Celebrate Its Birthday. i RECEPTION 10 BE GIVEN TONIGHT History of the Organization in This Country. * | THE DISTRICT LODGES The seventy-sixth anniversary of the founding of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows in the United States will be cele- brated in this city tonight by a reception to be given to the cfficers of the grand bodies of the order and commandant P. M., in Odd Feliows’ Hall, on 7th street northwest, from § to 10 o'clock. As a preliminary to the affair of the evening the Patriarchs Militant will as- semble at 6:30 o'clock at the 7th street hall and parade over the following streets: Down 7th street to D street, to 3d street, to Pennsylvania avenue, to 15th street, to F street, to 7th street, to hall. The parade will be under command of Commander Wil- liam T. Galliher, and will be escorted by the Canton Potomac Drum Corps. The reception this evening will. include an interesting musical and Iterary pro- gram, and will be followed by a dance. A large attendance of Odd Fellows, their fam- ilies and friends is expected. Extensive preparations have been made by the general committee of this city for a trip of the entire order of this juris- diction to visit Philadelphia May 21, on the occasion of the dedication of a new Odd Fellows’ temple on Broad street. A special train will leave the Baltimore and Ohio depot at an early hour, so as to be in time for the festivities of the day. A feature will be a grand parade in the afternoon. The celebration of Odd Fellow anniyer- saries in Washington is always of pecu- liar interest and appropriateness, for the reason that while American Odd Feilow- ship had its birth in Baltimore, it early obtained an Important footing in the Dis- trict. ‘The Independent Order df Odd Fellows had its origin in London, England, about 1745. The character attributed to the ear- Hest societies or lodges of Odd Fellows is that of assemblages mainly for social pur- poses, having an initiation ceremony and a collection being made to aid needy mem- bers. About the year 1800 the lodges in London and Liverpool were known as “The London Order.” In 1809 a member of the Lendon lodge removed to Manchester and introduced the order into that city, where it was so favorably received that ‘several Icdges were speedily organized, and in 1814 the lodges in Manchester and vicinity were ccnsolidated under the title of “The Inde- pendent Order of Odd Fellows of the Man- chester Unity. Founder of American Odd Fellawship. ‘The father end founder of American Odd Fellowship as it is today, Thomas Wildey, was born in Lerdon, January 15, 1782, and on reaching manhood was initiated into an Odd Fellows’ lodge, where he soon became distinguished for his zeal and integrity. He ceme to America in 1817 and settled in Bal- timore, where he sought the acquaintance of the few straggling members who had preceded him. He resolved to institute a lodge of Odd Fellows, and by an advertisement in the Baltimore American of 1819 found enough men to join him. April 26, 1819, they or- ganized themselves into a lodge, which they named “Washington Lodge of Odd Fellows,” receiving its warrant or dispen- sation as a free gift of the Manchester Unity of England. : A member of a lodge at Preston, England, visited this self-instituted body in the latter part of the year 1819, and on his return to his home procured from the Duke of York’s Lodxe of the Manchester Unity, located at Preston, a document, dated Feb- ruary 1, 1820, clothing the American organ- ization with the powers of a grand, as well as a subordinate lodge, under the title of “Number 1, Washington Lodge, the Grand Ledge of Maryland and the United States of America.” - This action of a subordinate was subse- cuently confirmed by the grand committee of the Manchester Unity. February 22, 1821, Washington Lodge surrendered the English charter to a “body of past grands” and the “Grand Lodge of Maryland and the United States” was regularly organized— the members of Washington Lodge recelv- ing a subordinate charter from the new grand lodge. In 1823 the self-instituted ledges of Philadelphia, New York and Bos- ton were induced to recognize the Mary- land organizatipn,and that body immediate- ly forwarded charters to the subordinates, as well as grand lodge charters for Penn- sylvania, New York and Massachusetts. April 15, 1824, it was deemed advisable to separate the powers of the national-from state organizations and the project was consummated February 22, 1825, when the first meeting of the Grand Lodge of the United States was held. In 1826 Thomas Wildey, the presiding officer of the Grand Ledge of the United States, known as “the grand sire,” visited England and obtained from the grand committee of the Manches- ter Unity an independent charter, granting to the Grand Lodge of the United States autherity “to conduct the business of Odd Fellowship without the interference of any other country so long as the same is ad- ministered according to the principles and purity of Odd Fellowship.” The Final Separatton. For several years intimate relations exist- ed between the two Grand Lodges, but in 1842 it was found that serious differences existed in the work. After fruitless en- deavors to recorcile the differences the hostilities of the Manchester Unity threatened in 1842, and consummated in 1843 by their attempt to institute lodges in the "United States resulted in an entire severance of the existing relations. ‘The objects of American Odd Fellowship are “to visit the sick, relieve the distressed, bury the dead arfd educate the orphan.” It seeks “to improve and elevate the charac- ter of man, imbue him with proper concep- tions of his capabilities for good, enlighten his mind, enlarge the sphere of his affec- tions and lead him to a cultivation of the true fraternal relation designed by the great Author of his being.” The motto, “Friend- ship, Love and Truth,” was known and used in connection with the order in 1775. The organization for attaining these ob- jects has two branches, closely connected, yet entirely distinct—lodges and encamp- ments. The Order in the District. ‘The order was established in the District of Columbia November 26, 1827, when Cen- tral Lodge, No. 1, was instituted. One year later, November 24, 1828, the Grand Lodge of the District of Columbia came Into existence. In January, 1834, Colum- bian Encampment was instituted, and April 25, 1846, the Grand Encampment of the Dis- trict of Columbia was organized at Alex- andria, Va., then a part of the District of Columbia. Georgetown Lodge, No. 2, was instituted January 15, 1828. Since the or- ganization of the Grand Lodge, in 1828, twenty-five additional subordinate lodges have been institued. Georgetown, No. 2, Concord, No. 3, and Jonathan, No. 4, have ceased to exist, while Pocahontas, No. 5, Potomac, No. 8, and Mount Vernon, No. 14, were transferred to the state of Virginia by the change in the geographical bound- ary of the District of Columbia. Marley Encampment, No. 2, was insti- tuted at Alexandria, Va., April 21, 1840; Mt. Pisgah, No. 3, at Georgetown, October 2, 1844; Magenenu, No. 4, March 25, 1846. ‘Since the organization of the Grand En- campment, in 1846, three other encamp- ments have been instituted—Ridgely, No. 5; Mount Nebo, No. 6, and Fred D. Stuart, No. 7. Of these subordinate encampments Mt. Pisgah, No. 3, and Ridgely, No. 5, are not now In existence. oa The tugs “Goldsmith Maid” and “Valley Forge” and a sand barge will be sold by the United States marshal tomorrow morning at 11 o'clock at the wharf foot of New Jersey avenue.

Church. “It has been brought to my ears that one of our presiding elders is sowing schism in regard to the delegates to the general conference, by saying that Rev. John H. Hurst is not eligible to the honor,’ said Rev. J. W. Bowser during yesterday’s session of the Baltimore conference of the A. M. E. Church at Baltimore. Bishop Gaines decided that Rev. Mr. Hurst was eligible. Then Presiding Elder W. R. Arnold of the Hagerstown district jumped to his feet and branded the asser- tion of Rev. Mr. Bowser as “most in- famous.” : “What I said,” continued Mr. Arnold, “was to the effect that a minister, to be eligible to election, must have served the conference at least four years.” “Let me proceed with my business,” said Bishop Gaines. “I’m on my way té Zion. I decided that Brother Hurst is cligible.” Rev. Mr. Arnold was about to take the floor again in his own defense for the purpose of more fully explaining his position, when the bishop gave notice that the debate must cease. “I have decided,” he said, “and that settles it. Now, brothers, den’t Bet nervous; only votes count.” Rev. Mr. Hurst, over whom the conten- tion started, is pastor of Waters Chapel, Baltimore. For a long time previous to entering the ministry he was secretary to. the Haitien legation in this city. The election took place at noon, and re- sulted in the selection of Revs. J. Hf. Col- lett, D. P. Seaton, J. W. Beckett and I. S. Lee as delegates, and Revs. John H. Hurst, J. T. Jenifer, O. D. Robinson and W. R- Arnold as aiternates. At 3 o'clock in the afternoon the annual missionary sermon was preached by Rev. John H. Hurst, from the subject, “The Fire That Burns.” Last night, after Prof. Charles G. Har- ris of Washington had finished playing his memorial march to the late Frederick Douglass, Bishop Arnette took occasion to congratulate the people of Maryland on such a great man. “You should Le proud of him,” the bishop said, “for he was une of the greatest men of the world.” The speakers last night were Revs, L. J. Coffin of Philadelphia, Bishop Avnette and Rev. C. S. Smith of Nashville, ‘Tenn., sec- retary of the Sunday School Union’ con- nected with the church. The session today will be taken up with reports and routine conference work. piszee aed THE COURTS. Court in General Term—Chief Justice Bing- ham and Justices Hagner and McComas. 4 United States agt.

To the Editor of The Evening Star: It is a deplorable fact that some one ts always ready to defend an outrage simply because he reaps some little benefit there- from. Dees “Brooklend” think it would be right for the 7th street cars to stand across the sidewalk of Pennsylvania ave- nue and cause pedestrians to walk around them to please its passengers? How long would the people permit it? Does “Brook- land” or anybody in existence know of an- other street car in any other city, heathen or civilized, that stands across the path- way of pedestrians two thirds of the day, and causes citizens the annoyance that this Eckington company does at New York avenue and 5tn street? Can Brookland, Anacostia, Bladensburg-or any other sub- urb’ be expected to monopolize the side- walks of our city, even if they are given the right to tear up our streets and ruin the beauty of our avenues? The police on duty, when attempting to break up the nuisance, were informed that the District Commissioners had granted a permit for this street obstruction, which left the po- lice powerless to carry out their own rules. Every sense of justice, right and decency should cause the Commissioners to take this part of the District domain away from the railroad company and give it back to the citizens of Washington, the residents of Brookland to the contrary notwith- standing.

Presxing Needs of the Kewsboys’ Chbildren’s-Agd Society. 2 It’ is hoped that~-tie exercises of the newsboys last Friday.evening will not be allowed to pass without some substantial recognition ‘of the work of the society. There seems no reason:.to-dount the state- ment then made that no sther institution in the city is doing # similar work, and none doing so much goodrat so small ex- pense. The $30,000 of Mrs. Maulsby’s leg- acy cannot: be used: for current expenses. It must go to the building now so greatly needed. The society has made no general appeal lately. But help is sorely needed, if the work is not to be curtailed. Some $500 will be required to sustain the work for the coming season. The 100 children at the gathering Friday evening ought to be 100 effective pleas for aid. The society makes no distinction of race or creed or sex. Its only question is: Do the children need our help? It has never appealed for relief in vain. Money may be sent to the treasurer, Mrs. I. F. Macfarland; 1727 F street northwest; to the president, Mrs. T. S. Childs, 1208 Connecticut avenue; to the office of The Evening Star, or left with Miss Wilson, at the home, E street northwest. Gifts of food, fuel and children’s clothing are great- ly needed. These can be sent to the home. AMUSEMENTS. Grand Opera House.—Mr. Robson had re- covered, so that he played at the Grand Opera House last night,.but the play was changed from “Leap Year,” which was announced to “She Stoops to Conquer.” This was occasioned by the accident to Miss Lynch, who had no understudy for the part of Mrs. Flowerly. In Goldsmith's ecmedy Mr. Robson has a part which ena- bles him to display his peculiar talents to excellent advantage, and he never played “Jony Lumpkin” with greater effect than last night. The audience, too, appreciated his work, and were liberal in their ap- Piause. Tonight “She Stoops to Conquer” will be repeated, and “The Henrietta” will be given tomorrow afternoon and evening. New National Theater.—Miss Ada Rehan appeared last night at the New National ‘Theater in one of her best impersonations— that of Katharine in Shakespeare's ‘‘Tam- ing of the Shrew”—to a large and fashlon- able audience that gave every evidence of complete satisfaction at her acting, and that of the talented company with which Mr. Daly has surrounded her. The play Was splendidly mounted, as are all the productions of Mr. Daly. Tonight the “Two Gentlemen of Verona” will be pre- sented. Parlor Talk at the Y. M. C. A.—What promises to be one of the most entertain- ing in the course of parlor talks, given by the Y. M. C. A, 1409 New York avenue, will take place this evening at 8 o'clock. Chas. D. Wolcott, director of the United States geological survey, will tell about a “Visit to the Canon County of Arizona.” This talk will be illustrated by thirty stereopticon views, which will be very in- structive. There will be no charge for ad- mission. The Kneisel Quartet._The annual public concert by the Kneisel Quartet of Boston, which will take place at Builders’ Ex- change Hall next Monday evening, bids fair to equal that of last year, socially, as well as artistically. Among the subscribers are Mrs. Henry Cabot Lodge, Mr. Anthony Pollok, Judge Bradley, Mr. W. B. S. Cly- mer, Mrs. Lowndes, Migs “Tuckerman. Mrs. . Uhl, Miss Spofford ‘and Mrs. Marcel- Jus Bailey. The quartet; wkich has been heard here in private: concerts the last three winters, soon sail for London, where they are to give several’ concerts during tke season. Mr. Anton Kaspar, whovhas gained more than a local reputatiomias a violinist, will be heard for the last timp prior to his de- parture for Europe at avconcert Saturday evening, May 4. Amongzothers, the Wil- helmj Club, of which he és a member, will assist, under its instructor and conductor, Prof. Josef Kaspar. This-organization has won the confidence of the musical public; the performances always being of the high- est order. The numbers:which the Wil- helmj Club will play will include a violin fantasie on airs fromGounod’s “Faust,” the first violins playing :the solo part in unison, and the theme and variations from Haydn's Imperial Quartet. Not many years since this club performed on a similar oc- casion, it being the farewell concert of the now celebrated violiniste, Miss Leonora von Stosch, who was one of the original four first violins of the Withelmj Club. as ee Planked shad dinners every Sunday at Marshall Hall.

At the invitation of Dr. Daniel Quinn, professor of Greek in the Catholic Uni- versity of America, a number of ladies and gentlemen mct at Dr. Quinn’s residence, 2422 K€ street, Wednesday evening for the purpose of furming the Washington branch of the American Institute of Archaeology. After interesting remarks from Dr. Quinn, Dr. Shahan, Dr. Hynernah, Miss Fletcher and Miss Scull, permanent organization was effected as follows: President, Dr. Daniel Quinn; first vice president, Dr. A. J. Hunt- ington of the Columbian University; second vice president, Miss Fletcher; correspond- ing secretary, Dr. Shahan of the Catholic University of America; secretary, Dr. A. P. Montague, dean of the Columbian College; treasurer, Brother Fabrician, president of St. John’s College. The objects of this society are, in the main, those of the general society, whose headquarters are at Boston, to wit, the prosecution of archaeological research in this country and abroad, and the formation at Rome of an American society similar to that now in operation at Athens. The new society begins under happy aus- pices, and it will, it is expected, be an im- portant addition to the learned organiza- tions whose homes are in Washington. The Search for “the Picture. To the Editor of The Evening Star: The picture “Home of Washington After the War” referred to by “M. W. C.” is owned, I think, by ex-Mayor Franklin Ed- son of New York. As a little girl I used often to see at his Lome on Fordham Heights a picture such as “M. W. C.” de- scribes, and I know the family value it highly as being by eminent artists as well as for its historical interest. K. 8. see Planked shad dinners every week day at Marshall Hall.
