Houghton to flag the soldiers’ raves in Oak Hill cemetery, a duty he has performed for fif- teen years. There afe about 250 soldier graves in Oak Hill.

Suspicious Characters. Two men, about forty and twenty-eight years of age, who are ri nting them- selves as lightning rod men and agents of various house owners, have been acting so suspiciously of late as to cause com- plaint to be entered against them. Mrs. James-Tanner, wife of Corp. Tanner, was a complainant yesterday. They stated they had been sent to her home by the owner and ordered to repair the rod, which by going rved through the that no one it that their be reached . Investigation py bad sent the men.

On Bist street at 8 o'clock last night a eclered boy about seventeen years old while riding a bicycle at a rapid rate ran into and knocked down the little son of Mr. Benj. Miller of 3038 P street. The child was seriously hurt. ‘The rider picked him- self and machine up as quickly as po: ard made off. He was chased, however, by Wr. David M. Prcetor, who witnessed the knockdown. The boy tried hard to get cut of sight, but it was uphill riding, and, in order to escape identity, he abandoned his machine and ran. It was brought to the station. It is believed there that the bicyele is a stolen machine, as the manu- facturer's plate, number and all identifying marks have been removed. to Notes. “Myself or Somebody Else’ is th> subject of a lecture to be delivered by ihe Rev.

To the Editor of The Evening Star: The letter in The Evening Star of the 224, on the subject of sick lines, evidently was written by some one who knows nothing of the subject he is writing or is selfish enaugh to demand the sacrifice of all com- fort of the unfortunate sick to his care- lessness. When sick lines are necessary they should be made conspicuous during the day by flags, and at night by lights. The streets being paved with asphalt is no on why they are not necessary. The linary driving on the streets is but a small portion of the noise on the same, and driving alone on asphalt streets is noisy enough to be a sore affliction to the very sick, in fact, they are peculiarly so. Sick lines are very little inconvenience to the general public, and a great comfort to the very sick. Therefore, when necessary, give them the benelit of the sick lines. <PERIEN es Attach Them to the Trucks. To the Editor of The Evening Star: Your editorial on the car fender, it appeared in last night's Star, 1s agitation in the right direction, of course, but in all that has_been said and written on the sub- ject no one seems to have thought to call attention to the fact that a fender fas- tened to the car bed is of but little value as a safety device. A fender so,fasteaed 2an- rot be hung low, for the springs in the close-built trucks In use under street cars would at times allow the fender to strike as the street. Every one has noticed how the car swings, especially at cro: and switches. If it is, therefore, sary to hang the fender so that, to prevent strik- ing when the car swings violenty, it shall clear the ck ten inches, the normal height of some of them, it simply means that when the fender swings to ten inches above its normal position it makes the am- plitude of its vibration twenty inches, or higher than the drawbar support, and therefore at that particular moment no bettgr protection than the car bed itself. This vibration of the fenders would be eliminated if the fender were fastened to the truck, and could therefore be hung to clear only two inches. This is the only place to fasten a car fender at all, al- though somewhat more expensive. It is to be regretted that the Commissioners, in s lecting a fender, did not give this point more consideration. Cc. F.

AMUSEMENTS. Academy of Music.—Last night Ponchiel- li’s opera, “La Gioconda,” was repeated by the Hinrichs Opera Company to an audi- ence which was -particularly enthustastic. The principals were Mmes. Kronold and Van Cauteren and Miss Fleming, Sigs. Del Papa, Campanari and Viviani. All were in excellent voice, and sang and acted with great spirit. Sig. Campanari’s Barcarolle in the second act was obliged to be re- peated, and at the conclusion of the third and fourth acts the entire cast received a curtain call. Tonight “The Bohemian Girl” will be given, by request. Uncle Tom's Cabin.—The dramatization of Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe’s novel, ““Un- cle Tom's Cabin,” always is attractive, and, although three generations have witnessed the sufferings of the old negro, the pranks of Topsy and the death of little Eva, the play is still a drawing card, and next week it will be presented at Butler’s Bijou Theater, with a strong cast and with many realistic features. Mr. John P. Smith, who directs the company, will play the part of Col. Skeggs, the auctioneer, which he will make very effective. Mrs. Peary’s Lecture.—If Lieut Peary’s ears should tingle tonight it would not be any great wonder. Mrs. Peary, his wife, will talk about her husband's’ expedition and the land of ice and snow at Metzerott Muste Hall, and a thoroughly enjoyable and entertaining lecture is looked forward y those who have secured seats for the on. She is being assisted by the Na- Geographic Society, who are doing to make the lecture @ success. Mrs. Peary has a number of excellent pictures which she intends ex- hibiting during the course of the lecture, and her many adventures in the arctic zene will serve to make the talk one of the most interesting of the season, for there is no woman who is so fully qualified to talk on this subject as is the wife of the eminent explerer. tional everything possible Concordia Maennerchor's Concert.—The Concordia Maennerchor gave their third annual concert at Odd Fellows’ Hall, 7th street between D and E streets northwest, last evening, the hall being crowded with a number of German-Americans, who came to have a jolly good time ad to enjoy themselves generally. The Concordia Maen. nerchor was assisted by the Immanuel Maennerchor of Baltimore, and the two clubs succeeded admirably in entertaining those present with their rousing German and American songs. Marvels of the New West.—Mr. John P. Clum of California will repeat his lecture on the Marvels of the New West Friday evening, at Wesley Chapel, corner of 5th and F streets northwest. The lecturer, a Bcet and scholar, whose twenty years of frontier service among the wild Apache Indians of Arizona and New Mexico, to- gether with his extensive travels, varied experiences and active life amid the pic- turesque scenery of the “farther west” and the semi-tropical glories of the “golden state’"—the nation’s fairyland—eminently qualify him to entertain and interest with stories. distinctively American, not only descriptive, but historical, and which are most beautifully illustrated by a superb collection of stereopticon views. The Concert in Richmond.—The Capital Glee and Rubenstein clubs leave tomorrow for their concert in Richmond. Mr. Clow- ard, the leader of the two organizations, has just ‘been informed of what is taking place in Richmond in regard to his concert. Both the entire first and second floors have been sold out, leaving only the top gallery for those who were unfortunate enough not to obtain seats. The sale only occu- pied about an hour and a half, so great was the rush, and the two hundred seats which were reserved for the party from Wash- ington are being begged for all the time. The two clubs on their arrival in Richmond will be met by a committee from the Wed- nesday Club of that city, who will escort them to the hall. Everything seems to point to an immense audience welcoming these two popular organizations, and the only thing they will have to do to establish themselves In the favor of the southern oe is to sing as well there as they did ere. ————s Asks an Accounting. Upon the application of Mary A. Ander- son, in a bill in equity, filed by her against Mark W. Moore and John J. Wilmarth, Judge Cox has restrained the sale of her property, 340 C street, granting a tempor- ary order, returnable on the 28th instant. The complainant alleges that in 1892 she was carrying a loan of $12,000 on the prop- erty, when she was induced by Wilmarth to borrow $11,500 from the Granite State Provident Association, taking eighty-five and a half shares in the association, on which she was to pay $2 monthly. She also gave her notes and a deed of trust to cover the loan and stock. Subsequently, it is claimed, she learned that the money bor- rowed came from one O. A. Jones, and she proceeded to deal with him, when her property was advertised for ‘sale on the 28th instant. She alleges that the associa- tion claims $15,556 to be due it from her, and she asks that the proposed sale be stopped and an accounting made. ee Will Be Brought Here. Detective Carter went to Philadelphia yesterday afternoon to look after the case of James, alias “Reddy” Eckles, who is under arrest there on the charge of horse stealing in this city. When the officer reached that city he learned that the pris- oner, who had been arraigned Tuesday, had admitted his guilt and identity. He plead drunkenness as an excuse for his conduct. The prisoner, as published in The* Star at the time of the theft, was in the employ of Mr. Joseph Bates, and he stole the horse from the stable and disposed of the animal in Anacostia, receiving a worthless horse and a few dollars for his plunder. The horse received in trade was put in the stable in place of the stolen animal. Eckles has been turned over to the marshal and will be brought here for trial as soon as a warrant of rentoval is ob- tained. : ————— Will ef Eliza Mayhew. ‘The will of the late Eliza Mayhew, dated June 30, 189i, filed‘ here, appoints Wm.

A meeting of the executive committee of the Anti-saloon League was held yesterday afternoon, and it was decided that it will be impracticable to hold a conference in this city preliminary to the calling of a na- tional temperance convention. It was found that 2 large number of those to whom in- vitations were sent had previous engage- ments which would prevent their attend- ance. The idea of a national convention ‘s, however, not to be’abandoned, and the sec- retary of the executive committee, Mr. Jesse C. Suter, is under instructions to be- gin preliminary correspondence at once. Among the organizations which will be asked to send representatives to the con- vention are the Epworth Leagues, Chris- tian Endeavor Unions, National Law and Order Leagues, and all the temperance so- cieties of the various religious denomina- tions. Besides the representatives of these bodies, there will be invited the most prom- inent temperance workers from all parts of the country.
