Monday night a meeting of fifty young rep- resentative colored men was held at the residence of Mr. Thos. H.

A well attended prayer meeting preceded the seivices in the auditorium at 7:30. Prof. Miller sang a number of songs and prayers were offered by Rev. Dr. Rice of Baltimore and others. The sermon by Mr. Potter was based on the word eternity, and was a powerful appeal to the sinner to prepare for a future state while the op- portunity is offered.

PETTY OFFENDERS Judge Kimball Releases Two Prison- ers to Be Whipped. BONFIRE AND CABBAGE STUMP SEASON Round-Up of Vags and Tramps in the Police Court. SUNDRY SENTENCES Sneak thieves, highwaymen, burglars and others who commit such offenses have been having a good time here this fall, but the small boys who have thrown a stone, stood on a street corner, played crap or did something to offend the dignity of a police- man have had anything but an easy time. These petty offenders have been arrested by the wholesale, and many of them have been so Ladly frightened by being thrown irto pclice cells and being put through the eaperience of burglars and murderers that their Halloween enjoyment has been spoil- ed, end they will not have the enjoyable time tomorrow night that they have so long anticipated. There will, of course, be the usual amount of cabbage and flour throwing, but the boys who have already had experience in police cireles will no doubt refrain from this mode of celebrating. The burning of au- tumn leaves by those who enjoy bonfires is being indulged in to some extent, and the police have been notified to arrest all such offenders. Released to Ne Whipped. Samtel Gaines and William Nightingale, two small colored boys, were arrested last night because they made a benfire of leaves near 12th and S streets. Policeman Har- rover arrested the boys, and they appeared in court this morning in the procession be- cause no one had left collateral for them. There were confessions offered in proof in the case, and the policeman told of the il- lumination that had attracted his atten- tion. Lawyer Martin made objections to the cherge, which were overruled, and then he put the boys on the stand. “I thought last night was Halloweve,” said one of the boy ‘because another boy told me s9, and I thought I had a right to make a fire.” ‘The other boy also made a statement. “This is a case, your honor,” said Lawyer Martin, “in which the whipping pest should have been established at home. These boys, I think, shculd have been taken to their parents and whipped, instead of being put in_a cell and brought here.” The legal guardians of the boys were in court and promised to put in effect the sug- gestion of counsel. This satisfied Judge Kimball, and, while he could not sentence the boys to be given nine and thirty, he was willing to let them 0 upon condition that they were given a whipping. “In view of what your honor {s going to do,” said Lawyer Martin, “I hope you will dismiss the charge, and not have a record against them.” don’t want to do that,” said the court. want them to think that something has been done to them.” “They will think that something has been dene to them,” said counsel, “when they have been whipped. Talked in the Wrong Place. James A. Young and George Ackerman were in court as suspicious persons,because they were heard talking in an areaway in frcnt of a house on New Jersey avenue on the square above the Baltimore and Ohio depot last night. Policeman Hayes was not satisfied with their excuses, and locked them up. “I’m employed in one of the depart- ments,” said Young, “but I'm going to tell the truth. We were talking to colored ladies’ who are servants in the house, and when the officer came up they closed the door in our faces.” Ackerman gave similar testimony. ‘Shameful conduct,” remarked the court. The judge said he thought the people in the house ought to know of what was go- ing on, ard took the men’s personal bonds. Unlucky Call on a Friend. am not guilty of that charge,” an- swered an Englishman, who was arraigned under the name of George Gaffney on a charge of vagrancy. ‘Last night,” said Policeman Ellis, “I found this man loitering about the streets, holding up people for money, and when I saw him go to the back gate of a house I arrested him.’* “Have you anything to say for yourself?” the prisoner was asked. “Yes, your honor,”’ he answered. nger in town and I’m an Englishman. What about your conduct last night?” "'m a bookkeeper and have been here a number of months, but have not been able to get employment. Last evening I called to see a friend, and was waiting for him when the officer arrested me.” ‘Had you been drinking “Yes, sir.” Thirty days.” A Sand Couch, Robert Norris, another stranger, was In the toils because he stopped in the Balti- more and Ohio sand house last night for free lodging. The sand is piled on heated pipes, and Norris thought he would enjoy the warm bed instead of sleeping beneath the trees, where the frost might possibly cause him some suffering. Bob had walked along the tracks of the railroad and would not have reached the city until after daybreak had not an officer oe him and sent him to the station in sti oat t know there was any harm in stopping on the pile of sand over night," he said. “Well, there ts some harm in it.” said the court. “When you tramps are about here and want a place to sleep you had better go to the lodging house. Now you will have to go down for two weeks. Out of Town for a Fortnight. Patrick E. Glum, also 2 stranger, was in the procession as a vagrant. He {s a poer man, and has no cares to bother him. Sometimes he finds it difficult to get his food, but he usually manages to get all the licuor he wants. ‘Monday night he was in the municipal icdging house,” said Policeman Bushall, “and last-night when he appeared there under the influence of Hquor they refused to take him in, and sent him to the sta- tion.”” Pat had very little to say. He told the judge that he was a stranger in the city, and asked to be released. His request was not granted, but he was sent down Zor two weeks. Took the Pledge. Harry Ferguson, a young man just get- tng over the effects of nis last nigat’s “good time,” guessed he was guilty of a charge of obstructing the sidewalic with nis person. Harry asked forgivencss this time, as it was his first offense. Vas it the first time you were drunk?” Judge Kimball asked him. t was the first time that I was ever so much under the Influence of lquor.” The young man explained to the court that he was only twenty-two years old, but ad been a beer drinker for some time. uid, he changed his bev- ge and indulged in some whisky. he added, “I got speechless “What do you intend to do now?” the court inauired. “Take the pledge,” he answered. “If ye let me #0 now I'll take the pledge for life.’ His persunal bonds were taken. Sent Down. on and Hattie Driver, col- ered women, who cought to be presiding over a wash tub, were seat down fcr a month at their own request. William Slaughter, Daniel Young, Horace Smith and William Jackson, colored men, guilty to a charge of crap shooting, and were fined $10 ea John Underwood $s charged with them and had been locked up over night, but the policeman knew nothing against him, and he was dismissed. aura Ham AMUSEMENTS. The Melba Concert.—A house filled with people from orchestra stalls to top gallery, and that audience composed of the best people in Washington; those who love music ard are able to gratify their passion by selecting chcice seats, and those who are themselves musicians devoted to their art, but who have to listen to great artists frcm the elevated seats of the sky parlor, and the people of fashion, who always go to great concerts, because it is “the thing, that was the condition of things at Allen’s Grand Opera House last night. Every seat was occupied, additional chairs were placed in the orchestra, and many persons stood up during the entire evening. It was the first appearance of Mme. Nellie Melba here in concert. Last night she was surrounded by good singers, she was in the best of voice, and her audience wes moved to an enthusiasm seldom seen in this city. Every vocal num- ter in the concert program was encored, and so the concert was prolonged until 11 o'clock, but no one seemed in the least werried. Mile. Bauermeister, Mme. Scalchi, Sig. D'Aubigne and Sig. Campanari all ac- quitted themselves in a manner to justify their well-earned reputations,and all except Sig. D'Aubigne had been heard here in opera. Scalchi never sang the “Huguenots” aria better, and her rendering of Tosti’s Sere- nade as an encore was theroughly artistic. Campanari won his popularity here during the Hinrich’s opera season, and his buffo aria from the “Barber of Seville’ was not new to Washingtonians, but he is quite versatile, and his “Figaro qua, Figaro la” was made spirited and effective. Still the Toreador song from “Carmen,” which he gave on the recall, was more pleasing to those who fully appreciate his magnificent baritone voice. Sig. D’Aubigne, or Mr. Lloyd Dabney, which is his real name, was not at his best in the dramatic aria from the “Queen of Shebu,”’ but he displayed a tenor voice of good quality, though not of extensive range. His “Rigoletto” song, given as an encore, however, showed him in a much better light, and was well received. When Mme. Melba made her appearance there was not the warmth of reception ac- cerded her that had been given either to Scalchi or Campanarl, but when she had finished the “Ah fors e lui” aria from “Traviata” the entire audience fully appre- elated that she was a great artist. Her voice is pure, round and true, not a big one, but with wonderful carrying power and remarkably flexible. It has’ been cultivated to its fullest extent, and she has it under perfect control. She sings with the great- est ease, and accomplishes the most diffi- cult cadenzas without apparent effort. This was particularly noticeable In the mad scene from “Lucia di Lammermoor,” where the tones of the flute were not more true or more sweet than the voice which it accom- panied, and where the vocalization was very near perfection. Although this was the last on the program, Melba received a Positive ovation,, and was recalled again and again. ‘The third act of “Faust” was given with Melba as Marguerite, Scalchi as Siebel, Mlle. Bauermeister as Martha, Sig. D'Aubigne as Favst ard Campanari as Mephistopheles. Gounod’s beautiful and sensuous music was adequately given in the main, but the role of Mephistopheles 1s too heavy for Cam- penari. Scalchi gave the Flower song ex- quisitely, and Melba's Jewel song was artis- tically sung. Altogether the concert was cne of the mcst enjoyable, as it was one of the most successful financially of any that has been given in this city. Lafayette Square Opera House.—Those who wish to compare Creston Clarke with his illustrious uncle, Edwin Booth, in a thorough manner should see him in “The Fool's Revenge” as Bertuccio. Although the house was comperatively small last night, it appreciated the good points of Mr. Clarke's work, while the rising young actor added to his reputation by his intelligent interpretation. Mr. Clarke has given much study to the part, and the different phases of the life and character of the jester were brought out with forceful meaning. He Seemed to be entirely in touch with the character and in the different moods and passions showed his versatility to good advantage. Miss Prince, as the daughter, was as charming as in Ophelia the night before and won the favor of the audience in the beginning. Her work was up to the, standard set by Mr. Clarke, while the com- pany itself appeared to a trifle better ad- vaniage on account of thé small cast. Mr. Clarke will present “The Fool's Revenge” again Friday evening. Tonight Mr. Clarke will appear in “Edgar Allen Poe.” the dra- matization of the life of the mad poet by George C. Hazelton, jr. A great deal of interest has been manifested in the presen- tation of this work. The play was first produced {nm Baltimore, where the poet lived and was well known, and it withstood the test in a most favorable manner. Allen’s Grand Opera House.—A jump from the sublime Melba to a mirstrel farce com- edy is a great transformation, but such will be accomplished at Allen’s Grand Opera House tonight. Raymon Mocre's, comedians and George Thatcher's Twentieth Century Minstrels will present their latest produc- tion, “Cupid’s Chariot,” for the remainder of this week, and it is expected that it will score as great a success as Mr. Thatcher's former presentation of “Tuxedo.” It is a light farce-comedy, with George Thatcher as the principal fun maker and Raymon Moore as the vocalist. They will be helped out in the production by a number of well- known people, and an evening's entertain- ment of fun and humor ts promised to those who take a trip in the “Chariot.” Thos. Q. Seabrooke—Much interest at- taches to the local engagement of ‘Thos. Q. Seabrooke, who will be remembered be- cause of his production of the “Isle of Champagne” and two comic opevas which achleved great success in this city and elsewhere. This season Mr. Sea- brooke presents a new comedy by Harry and Edward Paulton, entitled “A World of Trouble.” It has met with great success in Boston and Chicago, according to all re- ports, and Mr. Seabrooke is said to have achieved a personal triumph of magnitude. Mr. Seabrooke’s engagement here will be- gin at the Lafayette Square Opera House, and will close on Friday night, owing to his St. Louis engayement, which begins on Sunday night. ‘The matinees will b> on Wednesday and Friday. Gus Hil!’s Novelties.—Manager Kernan’s attraction for next week will be Gus Hill's Novelties. This is one of the best-known organizations in existence, and this season it is made especially attractive by the ap- pearance of Mile. Eugenie Petrescu. This phenomencn performs on her hands what human beings ordinarily do on their feet. She walks, dances, ascends and descends stairs on her hands with an ease and grace that fs really astonishing. Other names appearing on the program are the Gardner Trio, the expert musical artis! Lew Haw- kins, the twentieth century comedian; Fred H. Leslie and his troupe of leaping and acting dogs; McCalle and Daniels, the Irish teurists; Gray and Conway, character sketch artists; Bonnie Lottie, the dancing and singing sunbeam; Fields and Salina, grotesque eccentriques, and Little Dick, champion baton juggler of the world. Concert at Calvary Church.—The Vaughn class of the Calvary Baptist Church will give its fifth annual concert at the Calvary Baptist Sunday school house Friday even- ing, November 1. The affairs given under the auspices of this class have been most pleasant and enjoyable ones in the past, and the expectations are that this one will go ahead of all predecessors. The program will be composed of vocal and instrumental music and literary numbers, and is to be participated in by some of Washington's best-known talent. Those who will take part are Mrs. Thomas C. Noyes, the Ma- drids, Messrs. Holmes, Gallaher, Yundt and Judson; Mr. David C. Bangs, Mr. Percy S. Foster, Miss Ethel T. Camp, Miss Florence MeNelly, Mr. Elphorso Youngs, jr., Mrs. Frank Bryan, Mr. J. J. Fisher and the Na- tional Trio, Messrs. Phil. Baer, Elmo Jas- per and John Baer. Dr. J. W. Bischoff and Mrs. W. H.

Sa LIGHTS AND SHADOWS OF BANKING. Mr. B. H. Warner's Lecture om the Professioni of Finance. “The Lights and:Shadows of Banking’ was the title of an interesting and enter- taining lecture by »Mr. B. H.. Warner be- fore the CorcoranSeientific School in the lecture hati of the, Columbian University yesterday* afternoon, The hall was well filled with people,wwho thoroughly enjoyed the word picture that was drawn of bank- ing methods, andiof the men who are en- gaged in the business. The lecture was made of particular dnterest to young men who are thinking: of engaging in the pro- fession of banking,;and gave them ‘a very clear idea of what sthey might reasonably expect. Mr. Warner drew a pleasant picture of the bright side of banking, the honor and esteem in which the banker is held as an important factor in the community, the opportunities for good that are. presented to him, and the high character that usually is_ his. and fidelity of the general run of banking employes, who, he said, as a rule are above the average of business men in intelligence and devotion. There are .excellent oppor- tunities for advancement, but the work is hard and confining, and not all men «re suited to it. He painted in strong colors the ever-threatening cloud of the commer- cial panic, which, he said, was one of the nightmares of the banker's existence, and advised the young men before him never to enter the business unless for all the prizes they obtained they were willing to take a double portion of the ‘dships, annoy- ances and responsibilities with which every business man’s life was checkered. The personal lives of the young men em- ployed in banks is always a matter of the closest interest to their employers, for men who are in such positions of trust must be above fear and above reproach, not only in their business Hfe, but in their private lives as well,’and the demands of commercial life today make it necessary that bank presidents should keep a close supervision over all that goes on in his business; he must be a judge of the moral qualities of those with whom he does business as well as of good and bad credit. ——__ DISCIPLES OF CHRIST.
