SOME © RECOMMENDATIONS © MADE He Thinks the City Should Do the Work. ESTIMATES FOR NEXT YEAR A. G. McKenzie, superintendent of the street and alley cleaning department, has submitted his annual report to the District Commiesioners. Scme space is devoted to the method of keeping Pennsylvania avenue clean, and the report states that in addition to hand- cleaning that portion from the Peace mon- ument to 17th street west the sweeping machine passes over the same area three times a week. The report adds that if it cculd be done without curtailing the work elsewhere the entire avenue, from the mon- ument to the Rock creek bridge, should be machine-swept daily. The report notes that the almost total absence of com- plaint in regard to the condition of the improved alleys shows that cleanliness has been the rule. Under the system in vogue the entire city is divided into eighteen routes, three of which are cleaned each day. The cost for 1695 was $10,575. Dur- ing the year $9,088 was expended for clear- ing ice and snow from the streets. In addition to this the sum of $5,000, appro- priated by the central relief committee, was expended, under the direction of the department, in snow and ice work. Some Suggestions Made. Attention is called to the act of March 2, 1895, relative to the cleaning of side- walks, cress walks and gutters of the city from snow and ice, also sand, dirt, etc., Washed into sidewalks. An amendment is suggested so as to include the roadway as well as the sidewalk in the provision re- quiring the removal of sand, gravel, etc. The report suggests that an important omission was made in not providing an appropriation to enable the Commission- ers to Keep all cross walks of the city free from ice and snow. The cost, the report states, mignt be materially reduced if the owner, occupant or tenant of any property be required to open up the gutter in front of their premises one foot wide after every fall of snow, and Keep them open. During the year the total expenditure amounted to $136,770. The report states that if B street from 7th to 1zth street, Louisiana, from 9th to 10th, little B street from 10th to 12th, and both 9th and 10th streets from Louisiana avenue to B street were paved with ma- terial that presented a reasonably smooth surface, the labor of cleaning would be greatly lessened. In their present condi- ticn, the report adds, it is impossible to clean them as they should be. Some of them are swept daily by machine, but good results do not follow. The repaving of these streets is recommended In the in- terests of health and comfort. ‘The City Should Do the Work. It is stated that the present contract for cleaning paved streets expires June 30, 1897, and the opinion is expressed in the report that when the contract is relet the District will have to pay more for the work, the reasons being the effect of the eight-hour law and the lessening of dump- ing facilities, The superintendent believes that while the present system has worked well, yet for several reasons he is inclined to think that the better plan would be to have the work done directly by the city. The estimate for the fiscal year 1897 ag- gregates $174,495. A special estimate for snow and ice work is submitted of $25,000. An estimate is made of $10,000 for sprink- ling unimproved urban streets and Penn- sylvania avenue from Ist to I7th streets from May 15 to September 15. Also $5,000 for sprinkling suburban streets and roads. The estimate for sprinkling Pennsylvania avenue provides for a daily service, which, in the opinion of the superintendent, would be found desirable during the season named. The report states that the avenue is used more than any other street in the entire city, by both vehicles and pedestrians. Two-thirds of the population, the super.n- tendent estimates, are on this street, par- pec core the hot weather, either for usiness or pleasure. The superintendent thinks that $2,000 would sprinkle the avenue daily, as proposed. —_.__. St. Asaph’s Monday.

It is not often that the Navy Department takes such radically adverse action on the findings of a court-martial as has just been done in the case of John A. Long, a sail- maker attached to the receiving ship Rich- mond, at Newport, R. I. This warrant offi- cer was recently convicted by court-martial of drunkenness on duty, and was sentenced to be dismissed the service. A review of the proceedings of the court has satisfied Admiral Ramsay, chief of the bureau of navigation and acting secretary, that there was a reasonable doubt of the guilt of the accused, and therefore he has directed the release of the prisoner and his restoration to duty.

The condition of extreme heat continued yesterday throughout the middle Atlantic states south of New York and in the Ohio valley, with maximum temperatures gen- erally above 90 degrees, although some- what lower than on Thursday. In Mon- tana, Utah and Washirgton this morning the weather is extremely cold for the sea- son, the minimum temperatures reported being from two degrees to ten degrees below any previously recorded for the third ten days of September. The indications are that warm and fair weather will continue on the Atlantic coast Sunday, but the warm wave will probably be broken on Monday. ‘The weather bureau has received a con- signment of bomb rockets, which are de- signed for vse as sound signals for the dissemination of hurricane warnings.

IN THE CHURCHES ‘The Sunday school of St. Dominic's parish will reopen tomorrow its sessions, and the members of the Sodality, of the Virgin will receive holy communion at the early morn- ing mass in a body. The Rev. Father Ed- ward J. Farmer, O. P., formerly of Zanes- ville, Ohio, has been prantterrea to this elty, and is now connected With the church. Last Wednesday evening the chapier of the Brotherhood of St.‘ Andrew, connerted with the Church of the Ingarnation held a special service in the Sunday school yoom. Rev. Dr. Gilbert F, Williams, rec- tor of Christ Church,’ Hast Washington, was the speaker of the evening, and in the course of an interesting address, particu- larly applicable to Brotherhood men, gave some excellent advice about the advisa- bility of attending strictly to work on the Hes laid out by the Brotherhood. A num- ber of persons were present by Invitation from the other chapters of the city, and among them were some of the clersy. ‘The company of cadets recently organ- ized from among the youths of St. Augus- tine’s parish have elected the ‘ollowing officers: Captain, Randolph Henson; first lieutenant, George W. Brooks; second lieu- tenant, Aloysius Adams; first sergeant, James E. Butler; cecond sergeant, William Johnson; third sergeant, Alexander Jack- son; fourth sergeant, Thomas Matthews; “fifth sergeant, Edward Gwynn, and corpor- als, Alphonsus Edelin, James Johason, Louis Cooke and James W. Coates. The board of control of the Washington District Epworth League has under con- sideration a plan whereby a publication will be gotten out something in the shape of a directory. It will contain the names and addresses of the District officers, the officers of the local chapters and also all necessary information about the league. It will fill a want which has been much felt for some time. Rev. C. W. Baldwin, M. A., pastor of Wesley Church, continues to hold the services every Sunday and Thursday after- ncons by means of the gospel push cart. Dr. Baldwin has received such encourage- ment that he will continue them as long as the weather permits, and it is probable that next year their sphere of usefulness will be extended. The tower, which is to surmount the New Church, Swedenborgian, at its north- west corner, is now being erected. It is of write marble, in conformity with the rest of the church, and when completed will be visible for some distance around the city. ‘Though there has been a large force of men constantiy employed on the edifice it is not probable that the congregation will be able to hold divine worship In the building until the first of the new year. There is so much stone work used in the censtruction, and of which a large part is elaborately ornamented, making the work of building thereby necessarily slow. Rev, Hugh Johnston, D. D., pastor of the Metropolitan M. E. Church, sailed for home on the 18th of this month, and is’ expected to preach at the church the last Sunday in this month. Rev. Joseph Dawson of Boston has been holding the services in the ab- sence of the regular pastor, and has been making a feature of the Sunday evening sermons. At these services the chapter of the Epworth League connected with the church has borne a prominent part. Rev. J. Russell Verbrycke of the Gurley Memorial Church has returned from his va- cation, but will not resume all the services at the Gurley Church until the first Sunday in October. Music will be made a special feature at the church this fall and there is now in process of formation a regular quar- tet. The Men’s Club will inaugurate the second year of its existence with a meeting the first Tuesday in October, and thereafter meetings will be held the first and third Tuesdays in every month. Officers for the ensuing year will be elected at the October gathering. ‘The annual meeting of the Missionary So- ciety of the Christian Church, composed of delegates from churcheg in, the District of Columbia, Maryland and Delaware, is to be held in Jerusalem Church, Harford county, Md., on the 29th, 30th and £1st of October. It was organized at the Vermont Avenue Church of this city In 1878, and is now pre- sided over by the Rev. F. D. Power. Dele- gates will be present from the two churches in this city and also from the Southwest Mission. is Fletcher Chapter of the Epworth League has invited the officers and members of the board of control of the Washington district Epworth League to a reception given in their honor next Tuesday evening at Fletch- er M. E. Church. This will be a sort of formal opening of the campaign for 1895-96 on behalf of Fletcher Chapter. Rev. Alexander M. Rich has been elected as a delegate from Trinity Chapter, Broth- erhood of St. Andrew, ard will represent that organization at the convention of the crder at Louisville next week. Trinity Chapter has within the last few months rapidly recruited its ranks, and Is now one of the largest chapters in the city, besides being one of the most active. Beginning with the first Sunday in October, the chap- ter will establish a Sunday morning broth- erhood Bible class, with a promised attend- ance of twenty-five, and which will be ae by the assistant rector, Rev. Mr. ich. G ‘The full services at the Eastern Presby- terlan Church have been resumed. Rev. T. C. Easton, the pastor, is to preach a new serles of sermons on ‘“‘Romanism,” com- mencing in October and running through that month and November. All the services at St. Stephen’s Catholic Church are now being held in the lower chapel on account of the work on the church. North Capitol Methodist Episcopal Church has decided as its work for the winter to pay off $1,000 of the debt of $10,000 resting on the church. In order to raise this money the congregation intends to give an enter- tainment at Masonic Temple in November, ard with the proceeds from this bazaar, money raised by other means and a legacy of $300, which was left the church last spring, it is thought likely that the thou- sand will be secured. Tne repairs being made to the Mt. Vernon | Church are partially completed. The whole | outside is yet to be painted, and the lec- ture room on the lower floor of the church is to be recarpeted. In the meantime the pas‘or, Rey. I. W. Canter, has return- ed from his vacation and ail the services have been resumed. Mt. Vernon Church is trying the plan of congregational singing. Rev. D. H. Kern, pastor of the M. B. Church South at Del Ray, is holding a series of nightly revivals. ‘They began last Sunday week, and the interest taken in them has been such that the Rev. Mr. Kern intends to continue them as long as is ex- pedient. During the past month or so Hamline M. E. Church has been put in complete repair. The organ has been furnished with a water motor and some improvements made to It, and new benches have been put in the primary class room. The platform around the organ has been considerably enlarged, in order to accommodate a number of rew singers in the choir. The pastor of the church, Rey. Dr. E. S. Todd, will remove from Eckington the last of this month and will be located for the remainder of the year at 1520 9th street northwest. A meeting of the officers of Trinity Ger- man Lutheran Church was called Tuesday evening last to consider the calling of a minister to the pastorate of the church, made vacant by the resignation of Rev. W. C. H. Luebkert. It was decided to refer the matter to Rey. Dr. Brandt, the presiding officer of the Missouri district of German Lutheran churches, in which Washington is located. Dr. Brandt will present the names of two or three ministers to the church, and the congregation will then take their chuice. It is understood that a young pascor will be secured and one who does not object to preaching some of the sern:ons in English, the services at Trinity having slvays heretofore been conducted iu German. Rev. J. G. Butler left yesterday for Cum- verlard, where he officiates at the dedica- Uen of the English Lutheran Church re- certly erected in that city. Cumberland is the doctor's native place. The Methodist Ministers’ Association met Monday week, and not last Monday, as was originally planned. A feature of the reunion was the presence of Rev. Dr. J. B. Stitt, who declared, in touching speech, that he felt in better health than he has been for twenty years, and his appear- ance certainly bore out his words. The meeting discussed the report of a commit- tee which was appointed for the purpose of discussing the advisability of holding union revival services during the coming winter. It was finally decided inexpedient to hold such services. Rev. Dr. Charles O. Stakely returned frcm his vacaticn, spent in the mountains of Virginia, and preached at the First Baptist Church last Sunday. The District Sunday School Union fs ar- ranging to hold three meetings in different sections of the city for the purpose of as- sisting the lozal Sunday school workers and to stimulate greater interest in the coming convencion, to be held November 11-13. These three meetings will be of the nature of institutes, and the first one is to be held in the Eastern Presbyterian Church, corner 6th and C streets northeast, next Friday evening at 7:45 o'clock. All the schools in the eastern section of the city are arranging to attend. The exer- cises will consist of short addresses on the field work in the District, the relation of the union to the Interaational Association and on better primary methods. The les- son of September 22 will be taught with the audience as a class, and there will be a short talk on “The Whole Duty of the Teacher,” followed by an open parliament. Other features of the work will also be discussed. The local committee, of which Mr. McBride, superintendent of the East- ern Presbyterlan Sunday school is chair- man, will have charge of the opening praise service and the music of the even- ing. The other two meetings of the series will probably be held in the southern and western sections of the city. Rally day will be observed by the Sunday school of Kendall Baptist Church on Sun- day of next week. An interesting program has been arranged. The Ladies’ Aid Society of the North Capitol M. E. Church have decided that the parsonage belonging to the church and adjoining it on the east side Is in need of refurnishing and this they are going to do @t once. A room will be undertaken at a time and in this manner the ladies hope to accomplish more than by raising the whole sum needed at once.

Popiel’s Famous Painting on Free Exhibition Here. ‘Were you at the world’s fair? And does your memory single out in that vast gal- lery of art Thaddeus Popiel’s “After the Sterm?” It was the praised of every critic, the coveted of every connoisseur, the favorite with every soul who stood before the greatest collection of nineteenth cen- tury art. The canvas ig a very large one, being twelve feet long and seven feet high, and, as you may remember, was catalogued at $16,000. It has been purchased by Mr. Andrew Saks, of the firm of Saks & Com- pany, outfitters, and, yielding to the re- quest of some of Washington's brush and pallet worshipers, he has placed this fa- mous painting on exhibition on the second floor of Saks & Company's store, Pennsyl- vania avenue and 7th street. In this one effort the artist, Poplel, has raised himself to the topmost pinnacle of fame. He hasn’t created; he has simply painted the strong, simple lines of nature. Because it is true to nature it appeals to every human being. It is perfect in execu- tion. Himself a Polander, Popiel has paint- ed that with which he was instinctively most familiar. The scene is a peasantry farm laid waste by the fury of a storm that is seen fading away like an apparition, leaving in its wake naught but destruction. The central figures are the peasant and his wife, who have hurried through the still wet earth to the field of rye—their hope— their all. The expression of utter despair on the countenance of the man one can almost imagine smothers a flush of angry disgust. His mind ie in his face. There is his long and tedious labor harvested before its time by the winds of heaven. Behind him, barefooted und sympathetic, stands his wife. With the tenderer emotions of her sex, she ‘sn’t reckoning the loss in the Measure of hardships and privations—the hunger that may follow—but of him, her husband—of his disappointment—of his blasted hopes. Popiel knows woman's nature, and he has painted this one true to ker instincts, Some feet away stands the patriarch of the family—too old to have had_a hand in the labor lost, but every line in his face depicts the anguish a father feels for the discouragements of the son. And the chil- dren—boy and girl—stand huddled together, awed by the scene before them. Popiel dared the fates when he sought applause for his effort first In Munich, that home of artists, but it created a sensation. None the less so at the world’s fair and midwinter fair in San Francisco, where Mr. Saks purchased it. Washington is the proper home for such @ masterpiece. We are an art-loving peo- ple, and the privilege to view it that is to be freely accorded by Saks & Company will be appreciated by the whole com- munity. They say they'll have it ready for exhibi- tion on Moaday morning. ——_. Sunday School Reunion. During the early summer St. Paul’s M. E. Church edifice, Dupont Circle, was put in beautiful order, with new carpets, chairs and interior decorations. A Sunday school reunion is to be held there tomorrow morn- ing at 9:45, ard the acting pastor of the chrrch and the superintendent and secre- tary of the Sunday school have issued a cirevlar extending cordial autumn greetings to members or friends of the school, and inviting all to be preseat at the exercises tomorrow. The circular gives the refer- ences fcr the lesson to be studied, ard cleses with an appeal to every member to make special effort to bring others to the reunion. —__ Robert Poole (colcred) was hanged at Spartanburg, 8S.
