Chief Canfield's Report. ‘After the customary opening proceedings and conferring the Grand Lodge -degree vpon a large number of representatives, Grend Chief Templar Canfield presented his report, reviewing the work of the order of Good Templars in this jurisdiction since the last meeting of the Grand Lodge. Figures were given showing the order to be gain- ing in numbers and influence throughout the trict. of Columbia. Three district and two subordinate lodges have been in- stituted, and the prospects for the future were said to look bri®hter than the past. ‘The report contained several recommenda- ticns in minor matiers of no public tn- terest, and the report was referred to the committees on finance and state of the order. The grand superintendent of juvenile temples, Mr. S. W. Russell, presented a report brimful of optimistic predictions | for the future of the Good Templar order in Washington and vicinity. During the past six months three juvenile temple have been organized, named Crystal Fount, Silver Star and Minnehaha, respectively, while the oldest and strongest temple in diction, Undine Temple of North- ington, was reported as doing a great work for total abstinence among the children and youth. «ll of these temples have been organized into a District Juve- nile Institute, and greater usefulness than ever was predicted for the future. The report of Grand Treasurer E. iH. Harner showed the order to be in a healthy financial condition at the present time, with funds enough in hand to meet current ex- penses. Condition of the Order by Lodges. Grand Secretary Andrew Kalstrom pre- sented an elaborate report of the condition of the order in this jurisdiction by lodges. Statistics were given to show that the membership was Increasing. The organiza- tien of district lodges was stated to be the beginning of a new interest in the temper- ance work. The District of Columbia had heen divided by the executive committee inte three districts, as follows: First dis- trict, all territory east of North and South itol streets; second district, all territory west of North Capitol street, north of Pennsylvania avenue and east of 17th street west; third district, all other territory in the District of Columbia. The district chief templars chosen, Messrs. J. W. Van Vieck, Edward H. Jones and A. E. Shoe- maker, are all men of experience and hrown ability in the temperance work, and the effect of their labors is already s in the organization of two flourishing sub- ordinate lodges, and the revival of interest in others. The organization and growth of the ju- venile temples was commended, and the Grand Lodge was urged to take steps look- ing to more aggressive missionary work throughout the district. Lodzes were ad- to hold open meetings, at which the objects and principles of the order should be ably presented to the public. The bal- ance of the report was devoted to detail regarding the receipts and expenditures of the secretary, and the entire document was committees on finaace and state of the order. When Mr. Kalstrom at the large assemblage mani- fested its appreciation of his efforts by an outburst of applause lasting several min- grand chief templar presented a me- al announcing the death, at Brooklyn, Y., of Mr. John Newton Stearns, the cor- ponding Secretary and publishing agent of the National Temperance Society, and one of the pioneers and most powerful advocates of total abstinence. The -an- nouncement was received with genuine so row by all present, and a committee, con- sisting of Messrs. A. T. Maupin, S. W. Rus- sell and J. W. Van Vleck, was appointed to draft table resolutions to be engross- ed upon the records of the Grand Lodge. Main Question Discussed. ‘The question of establishing a minimum initiation fee for all lodges in this juris- diction occupied the attention of the body for an hour, and developed a decided op- Position on the part of the subordinate lodges to any change in the present cus- tom, which permits each lodge to make any rate it chooses. The question had not been settled at 11 o'clock, when a recess) was taken until next Saturday evening at the same place. There are a large numter of committees yet to report, and it is quite likely that the session may be prolonged for several even- ings. The work of the Anti-Saloon League will come up for consideration, and the committee on legislation is expected to bring forth some plans for fighting the liquor traffic which wili be presented to Congress at the next session in December. Altogether, the session promises to be an unusually important one for the cause of temperance in this locality. —— LAW STUDENTS DEBATE. They Wrestle With the Question of Federal Control Over Elections. Six law students of Columbian University wrestled Saturday night at the Law School lecture hal: with the question of whether or not the United States should exercise control over federal elections. The debate was conducted in the presence of an au- dience that completely filled the hall, and demonstrated its favor in the most enthu- siastic manner. The debaters, who were introduced by Mr. Walter 'T. Colquitt, were Seth E. Tracy cf Texas, Orin Patterson of Missourl and J¢ McIlvaine Gray of Ne- braska for the affirmative, and Charles A. Brown of Ohio, J. Martin Scranage of West Virginia and Harry C. Evans of Icwa for the negative. These six speakers varied in style of argument and delivery, and evoked thunders of applause from their champions. Immediately after the sixth argument had been presented the judges of the debate retired, and in a few Taoments rendered their decison in favor of the negative. The judges were Justice C. C. Cole of the District Supreme Court, C. H. Bell, deputy commissoner of pen- sions, and John R. Proctor, president of the civil service commisson. The prizes to the first and second best debaters, consisting of sets of law books, will be presented on the day of the Law School commence- ment. Unti? then the names of the win- ners will be unkown to all but the judges. The University Mandolin Club rendered some pretty music during the debate, play- ing between the argumen’ eae CHARG WITH MURDER. riin Dalton Taken to Providence to Be Tried for His Life. Martin Dalton, a young man who for- lived in Providence, R. I., and who is the son of a wealthy Massachusetts man, Passed through here yesterday in charge of an officer. He had been arrested at At- lanta, Ga., and was being returned, in .charge of Chief Parker of the Providence detective corps, to answer a charge of murder, alleged to have been committed by him three years ago. At that time a wealthy resident of Providence named An- thorny Haswell was murdered for his money, and since then the prisoner has been shadowed from place to place in this and other, countries, and was finally cap- tured in Atlanta, where he was managing @ pugilistic exhibition. There was a con- troversy about the arrest, because of the fact that a reward of $500 had been offered for nis arrest, and rival officers in Atlanta will claim the reward. Since the murder of Anthony Haswell it is charged that Dalton was implicated in two other homi- cides, one the killing of a Chinaman in Arizona. While in this city yesterday the prisoner was locked up at the first police station. ——____ FLOWER MISSION DAY. "The Appropria brance of a Noble Woman's Birthday. The birthday of Miss Jeannie Casseady was appropriately celebrated Saturday by members of the W. C. T. U, in the distri- bution of flowers, good literature and fruit and delicacies among the hospitais and asylums of Washington. Miss Casseady was a wealthy Louisville girl, who spent her life in an invalid’s- chair, but she was active in planning to alleviate the suffer- ings and cheer the hearts of others equally as unfortunate as herself. Her noble work attracted so much attention that in com- memo ation of the day of her birth the W. 1. U. of the world has instituted what is known as Flower Mission day. Mrs. T. G. Jones is superintendent of the locai flower mission, and, with ker large corps of helpers, spent most of Saturday and Sunday distributing the beautiful blossoms. They visited the hospitals, the Home for In- curables, the jail, aimshouse and work- heuse, and there were many touching scenes as the bearers of these tributes of sympathy nd love made their offeriugs to the suffering inmates.

Miss Edith Taylor was the guardian; Misses Blanche Birch, Florence, Frisby, Laura Waters, and Messrs. Raymond Frisby, Regnald Lewis and Jesse Wilson representéd the pilgrims. The Mfant class exercises were rendered with much credit t& the little ones. Mr. J. Henry Wilson, the veteran chorister, led the chorus singing, and Mrs. Isaac Birch presided at the organ. A solo by Miss Lillie Stewart and a recitation by Miss Daisy Morton were greatly appre- ciated. The success of this enjoyable oc- casion was largely due to the energetic management of Mrs, Isaac Birch, who had the arrangements in charge, assisted by a corps of hard-working teachers and young people of the school. ‘The presence of the Rev. Dr. Stitt in the church after several months of illness added eclat to the happy occasion. Tenleytown Baptist Sunday School.

Its Forty-Second Year Was Celebrated With Appropriate Eaercises. Appropriate ceremonies marked the forty- second anniversary of the organization of the local branch of the Young Men’s Chris- tian Association, celebrated yesterday at the association building. General Secretary James E. Pugh was in charge of the cele- bration, and he was assisted by Mr, Zal- mon Richards, the first president of the association, who made the opening prayer; Mr. L. Cabell Williamson, now president, who also uttered a prayer, and Rev. J. D. Butler, who delivered the anniversary ad- dress. : In the evening an interesting history of the words “Y. M. C. A.” was given by Gen- eral Secretary Pugh in the Coagregational Church. Among other things Mr. Pugh stated that there are now 0,510 associations in existence in forty-one countries, the membership aggregating 500,000. There are 1,441 associations with a membership of ¥44,000 in North America, he said, and 0 are spept every year in current ex- penses. After discussing the physical, the mental, the social and the spiritual work of the local association, Mr. Pugh urged the necessity of a large equipment for Washington, and concluded his address with an appeal for assistance to make the local Y. M. C. A. worthy of the city, ex- pressing the hope that the time will when the association will own a building provided with accommodations for fully three thousand members, instead of for only one-third that number, as is the case at present. The exercises were brought to a close by Rev. Dr. Newman, who, in a brief talk, heartily indorsed all that Mr. Pugh had said, and called attention to the association as a factor in bringing young men into the church.

At a regular meeting of the Mount Pleas- ant Citizens’ Association, held Saturday evening, Mr. J. W. Somerville was re-elect- ed president, Mr. T. A. Harding, vice pres- ident; Mr. T. M. Exley, secretary, and Mr. Ellis Spear, treasurer. The effect of the Proposed extension of streets upon the vil- lage was discussed, it being contended that It is proposed to cut off the present 17th street extended so as to leave a square in- tervening between Piney Branch boulevard and the extreme northern part of 17th street. The 17th street property owners object, on the ground that the plan will cut off direct connection with the proposed boulevard. Some of the members of the as- sociation took the position that the plan of street extension should not be endangered or delayed by raising objections to what were regarded as minor details. The mat- ter was referred to a committee, Messrs. J. W. Somerville, Chapin Brown, A. B. Chatfield, E. W. Woodruff, H. D. Wal- bridge, B. Bennett, A. H. Baker, E. E. Court and Dorald McPherson forming the committee. It was decided to take no further action in relation to a resolution introduced at a previous meeting, proposing to increase the number of District Commissioners to seven, although the matter may be referred at the next meeting to the other citizens’ as- soc'atiors. The committee on sanitary af- fairs. and. the committee on streets and sidewalks reported that 14th, 16th, 17th and Park streets still badly needed paving, and that the sidewalks leading to and from the village school were in like condition. President Somerville informed the asso- c‘ation that the new engine house in the village would soon be ready for occupancy, and on his suggestion it was decided to make the opening of the house an event for a village celebration. —_—>_— Trustees’ sale of four two-story brick dwellings, Nos. 1128 and 1130 New Jersey avenue southeast and 1127 and 1129 2d street sdutheast, takes place tomorrow at 5:30 o'clock p.m. See advertisement. * ee Trustees’ sale of frame dwelling and lot on New Hampshire avenue between H and I streets northwest takes place tomorrow afternoon at 5 o'clock.
