Gilmer was charged with a violation of section 4 of the garbage regu- lations, in that he failed to number his al- ley gate to match the front door of his house, 543 Florida avenue. He was arrest- ea by Policeman Giles, and when the case was tried it appeared that Mr. Gilmer’s house {s located on a triangle and has no alley gate. In view of this fact Judge Kim- ball dismissed the case. —_—_ Railway OMicials Elected. The board of directors of the Southern Railway Company has elected the following officers: Alexander B. Andrews, first vice president, office at Raleigh, N. C.; Wm. H. Baldwin, jr., second vice president, office in this city; W. W. Finley, third vice prest- Gent, office in this city. The duties of the first’ vice president are those previously performed by the second vice president, and the duties of the second vice president are those previously performed by the third vice president. The third vice president will have the direction and control of traf- fic, the traffic manager reporting to him. a Provisions of a Will. By the provisions of the will of the late James W. St. Clair the sum of $200 was given to Foundry M. BE. Church, to be used in raising the funded debt of the church. At the time of the death of the testator, it ig claimed that there was no funded debt of the Church, although the amount was re- ceived by the trustees of the church. The executur of the estate, Zachariah S. Buck- ler, entered suit for the amount before a fustice of the peace, Justice O'Neal, on the ground that there was no funded debt, and that the bequest was therefore void. Judg- ment was given in favor of the executor, apd the trustees of the church have noted an appeal to the District Supreme Court. —- Small Fares and Big Profits. Mo the Editor of The Eveuing Star: Your editorial comment in Monday’s Star, regarding the new deal of the Washington and Georgetown and Rock Creek railways, leads me to remark that I am in hearty ac- cord with your suggestion that street and steam railroads may well profit by the les- son here given of low traffic rates. For years I have talked of lower railroad pas- senger rates and have argued the case with some prominent railroad men, and although assured always that reduced rates would mean bankruptcy, I have never been con- yinced that such a dread calamity wouli follow. We need not go far back into the history of street railways to learn what Jow rates have done for them. If the steam railroads would but follow their example, and give the public a low rate, I am con- vinced that a largely increased business ‘ould be assured. If it pays the railway jompanies to make a single fare rate at times of great conventions, conclaves, G. A. R. encampments and of similar gather- ings, why not establish a single fare rate and have the increased: traffic every day? "The American people are a traveling peopie, and are quick to avail themselves of oppor- tunities. Our country is one of magnificent distances, and our familles are widely scat- tered over its broad lands. Under such cir- ¢umatances, with the railway fares down to a rate within the means of the average man, it 13 reasonable to assume that travel for pleasure would increase enormous whereas the bulk of travel today {3 for business only. I am satisfied that the time will come when the railroads, gathering wisdom with advancing years, will cut the present passenger tariff at least one-half, and regret that it was not done at an earller date. The first to inaugurate this great reform will live long in the memory of the people. ar “Important Sale Of well-kept furniture at No, 819 17th street northwest, tomorrow at 10 o'clock.” This sale is well worthy the attention of those In search of good household furni- ture.

ANNUAL CONVENTION AT FOUNDRY A Two Days’ Program of Interest- ing Events. SKETCH OF THE BI@ —————— ORDER The local Woman's Christian Temperance Union has attained its majority, and will celebrate the event by a convention at Foundry M. E. Church, beginning tomor- row, and lasting all day Friday. A pro- gram of exceptional interest has been ar- ranged, and the officers of the District union feel confident that the net results of this big birthday party will be greatly bene- ficial to the good of the organization. The District of Columbia Woman's Chris- tian Temperance Union ranks as a state organization with the national and world’s W. C. T. U., of which Miss Frances E. Wil- lard {s the president, and is entitled by its paid-up membership to four officers and two delegates at the next annual national convention, which meets in Baltimore, Oc- tober 18 to 23. This convention will be of great interest to Washington, since the cities are so adjacent, and already a grand excursion to this city and Mt. Vernon is planned for October 24, when the national will be the guests of the District W. C. T. U. for one day at least. The National W. C. T. U. ‘This great white ribbon society was born in a little Presbyterian church in Ohio De- cember 23, 1873. Mrs. Eliza J. Thompson, the daughter of ex-Governor Trimble of Ohio, was leader of the first crusade band, from which this vast organization has sprung. On the 18th of November, 1874, in Cleveland, resolutions were adopted and a constitution framed, and Mrs. Annie E. Wittenmyer of Pennsylvania was elected president, Miss Frances 3B. Willard of Illinois secretary, and Mrs. W. A. Ingram of Ohio treasurer. Twelve states were then represented by vice presidents. Now the eociety belts the globe, has a membership of nearly 300,000, including the “Y's,” and has a great publishing house in Chicago, which sends cut millions of pages of tem- perance literature every year, besides pub- an official organ, ‘The ‘The Oak and Ivy Lea the “Y's” official organ, and “The Young Crusader,” for the children. It has its headquarters in the temple, “built by a wo- man’s thought and a woman's prayer,” and which is one of the handsomest and most commodious structures in that great city of fine buildings. In 1876 Miss Frances E. Willard was pro- moted to the presidency on the platform of woman suffrage, and she has been the al- most unanimous choice of the union ever since as its leader. The work of the union is embraced under the following heads: Evangelistic, preven- tive, educational, social, legal and organiza- tion. These are divided into departments, each of which has an efficient superintend- ent. The department of young women’ work has recently been changed into the Y branch, and the presiding officer is the gen- eral secretary, and is a member of the ex- ecutive committee by virtue of her office. This differs from the other department work in that the local and state Y unions are under her offical direction. The sum of $65,968.52 was raised and ex- pended by the young women’s branch in the United States in ‘93 and "04. Mrs. Frances J. Barnes of New York is national Y secre- tary. Missfonaries Around the World. Mrs. May Clement Leavitt, the first round- the-world missionary, was eight years on her first missionary journey, during which time she crossed ninety-seven streams, or- ganized eighty socleties for women, estab- lished twenty-three men’s organizations. Out of a total of 134 societies which she or- ganized a very large majority are now doing most excellent work. Mrs. Leavitt secured many of the foreign signatures to the great polyglot petition, now representing 700,000,- 000 names and forty different languages. Mrs. Jessio Ackerman of California follow- ed Mrs. Leavitt, emphasizing her work and adding thousands of names to the petition. She traveled 150,000 miles in the interest of the white-ribbon work and organized many countries into direct official relation with the national and world's societies. Besides the ordinary methods of travel— cars, steamboats, &c.—she was transported by camel, elephant, canoe, junk, ekka, tinga, jinrikisha, buffalo, bullock, camel cart, se- dan chair and wheelbarrow. She formed 200 local unions, pledged 21,840 men and se- cured 10,000 members to the W. C. T. U. Her health having broken, she is now rest- ing as the world’s missionary in Iceland. The third biennial meeting of the World’s W. C. T. U. was held in London June 19 to 21 and was thoroughly representative, able delegates from twenty-eight of the leading countries of the globe participating in the proceedings. The local W. C. T. U. has taken up many departments of work, and its influence is broadening. The Local Program.

M. O. A. GYMNASIUM. Washington Light Infantry Appara- tus Offered for Their Use. It was announced a week or so ago in The Star that the president of the Wash- ington Light Infantry Athletic Association had offered the use of the gymnastic ap- paratus belonging to the association to the Young Men’s Christian Association. Since then General Secretary Pugh has had sev- eral conferences with representatives of the Light Infantry, all of which have been very satisfactory. The terms of the offer to the sociation were that the Young Men's Christian Association should have the use of the hall and apparatus whenever the hall was not being used for drills and was not rented. By this arrangement men wear- ing the red triangle will be able to exer- cise to their hearts’ content Wednesday and Thursday nights, excepting the first Wednesday evening of October. The hall is also at their disposal every afternoon of every day, and also in the evenings of all the other days of the week, excepting be- tween the hours of 7 and 9 p.m. The gym- nasium of the Washington Light Infantry was purchased some years ago, but as it has never been used to any great extent It {s In fine condition. While not as extensive as the one that went up in smoke in the fire on New York avenue, still it possesses all the essentials of a first-class gym- nasium. The ¥. M, C. A., in addition to be- ing able to practice on apparatus which they are familiar with, will by the new ar- rangement be in possession of a spring board, wrestling machine and a punching ag. In a few days Secretary Pugh intends to call a meeting of the young men who are interested in athletics,and place before them the offer of the Infantry, and at the same time explain to them the intentions of the Y. M. C. A. in the matter. These, it 1s understood, will be that no regular in- structor Is to be engaged, but that classes will be formed and placed in charge of a half dozen or'so of Prof. Sims’ former pupils who are capable of handling classes. Fred Doyle, the crack club swinger, will probably have charge of the Indian club and dumb-bell class, Morsell of the bars, and possibly Horan of tumbling. The offer is the more acceptable to the Y. M. C. A. just now for the reason that the athletic park rented by the association, at the cor; her of Massachusetts avenue and North Capitol street, is to be given up the last of this month. —_.___ AMUSEMENTS. Lillian Russell.—The electricians and rig- gers engaged in fitting up the stage of the new Lafayette Square Theater have about completed their work, and will be entirely ready for the scenery and electri- cal appliances of theLillian Russell Opera Company, when the three cars, now in the Pennsylvania yards, are unloaded Fri- day. The Russell company requires little of the theater in which it plays, except a clear stage and plenty of electric current. Every stitch of scenery and costumes, and every bit of properties, light apparatus and machinery, reauired in the investiture of “The Tzigane,’ is carried by the com- pany. Another opera was put on in Bos- ton this week for the express purpose of getting all the “Tzigane” baggage on to Washington early enough to permit of its being already in place for the scenic re- hearsal of “The Tzigane” on Sunday night. Abbey, Schoeffel & Gram did this in order that the first night's performance at the new theater should be a_ perfect one, knowing full well that first performances in brand new theaters are pretty hard af- fairs to manage without certain vexatious accidents and hitches. The advance sale of seats and boxes for the entire opera engagement will open at Metzerott’s music store tomorrow, Thursday morning. The price for seats will range from $2 to 50 cents, and for boxes from $15 to $10. “Pudd'n Head Wilson.”—Frank Mayo, who made such a hit years ago in “Davy Crockett,” has now a play in which he presents a character equally as unique and equally as effective. It is a dramatization of Mark Twain's story of Pudd’n Head Wilson, and in the leading role Mr. Mayo has found a part that is bringing him as much fame and money as did his former interpretation of the American pioneer. This new part is also a type of American character and affords Mr. Mayo a splendid opportunity for the display of his superior dramatic ability. The ‘dramatization is extremely effective and presents many strongly drawn characters and many stir- ring incidents. It is placed upon the stage in the most elaborate manner. Wherever this play has been produced it has met with the most pronounced success, and it is expected that it will find equal favor in this city. The advance sale of seats will commence tomorrow. “The Midnight Special."—The attraction that will appear at the Bijou Theater on Monday, September 30, is the very latest great melodramatic success, “The Midnight Special,” a high class melodrama in four acts, produced with a car load of magaifi- cent scenery and mechanical effects. It s a play for the people taken from every day life; full of stirring incidents and strong situations acted by a carefully se- lected company, which is everywhere in- dorsed as being one of the strongest or- ganizations on the road. A rounder in a stock broker's office, a railroad scene, with puffing Jocomotives, the interior of a wine distillery in full operation; and still an- other railroad scene with’ a miraculous escape, and a hotel parlor showing a pa: senger elevator, a ‘perfect reproduction,” are some of the scenes used to develop the plot. The Russell Brothers’ Comedians.—Man- ager Kernan’s attraction for next weck will be the Russell Brothers’ Comedians, an extraordinary aggregation of superior vaudeville talent. The coterie of comedians is headed by the Russell brothers in their impersonations of Irish servant girls, but the bright particular “star” of the organi- zation is Lew Dockstader, the famous minstrel, whom Messrs. Weber and Fields have specially engaged. Mr. Dockstader has recently created a sensation in New York by appearing on the stage in the “make up” of Mayor Strong and criticising in topical verse the political leaders of that city. Among other names appearing on the program are those of McAvoy and May, in character bits of comedy, George H. Wood, the somewhat different comadian; Bloksom and Burns, the original brut] brothers; Falke and Semons, expert musical artists; Johnnie Carroll, the clever parody singer; Alburtus and Bertram, the “Harvard” boys, and the Morellos, acro- batic marvels. The performance will con- clude with the laughable absurdity, en- titled, “The Two Off Uns.” “Miss Jerry.”—Many persons who at- tendec the C. C. course at Metzerott's last winter will doubtless remember the pleas- ing sensation caused by ‘‘Miss Jerry,” the novel “picture play" of Alexander Black, and the numerous persons who have ex- presse? a desire to see this original enter- tainment will be pleased to learn that a favorable opportunity will present itself next week, when “Miss Jerry” will visit the city with all of her charming and interest- ing company. Instead of a company of players, as is usual in the ordinary drama, Mr. Black employs the stereopticon, the pic- tures being thrown on a screen in the usual manner, the author reading the dialogue as the pictures, which are all taken from life and appear life size on the screen, are pre- sented. Among some of the actual outdoor scenes from the play are Broadway, City Hall” Park, Madison Square and Central Park. “Miss Jerry” also interviews Chaun- cey M. Depew, Sergt. Dunn of the weather bureau, Supt. Martin of the Brooklyn bridge, all of whom are represented by pho- tographs from life. Altogether it is a unique story; is interesting, and exceeding- ly Ingenious and novel. —_—.__. $1.25 To Baltimore and Return. $1.25 The Pennsylvania railroad will sell Sat- urday, September 28, and Sunday, Septem- ber 20, good returning until Monday, Sep- tember 30, excursion tickets to Baltimore at rate of $1: -Advt. ?is Your Blood Pure If not, it is important that you make it Pure at enge with the great blood purifier, Hoo Sarsaparilla Because with impure blood you are in con- stant danger of serious illness.
