DESIRE HIM TO BE DELEGATE | A Petition is Presented to Ex-Commis- sioner Myrcn M. Parker. Many Republicans Urge Him to Go to the Next Republican National Convention. A numerously signed petition by republi- cans here has been presented to Ex-Com- missioner M M. Parker, asking him to be- come a candidate for the delegateship to the national republican convention. These petitions have been circulated in nearly all cf the twenty-two districts. and signatures have been obtained. The petition among other things says that the citizens of the District of Columbia, anxious to promote its material prosperity and general wel- fare, and believing that the present offers an opportunity to the people of the Dis- trict to secure a voice or some measure of influence in their municipal affairs, and as another opportunity will not occur again in four years, respectfully urge Mr. Parker to become a candidate to represent them in the next national republican convention. They are moved to this, it Is stated, be- cause they believe that the condition of the District has not heretofore been properly represented, and believe it possible to se- cure a larger measure of influence in the next national republican convention by sending a man of national reputation to represent them. Mr. Parker's Position. Mr. Daniel Murray, the assistant Hbrarian at the Congressional Library, was the main spirit in having the petitions signed and presented to the ex-Commissioner. He says that Mr. Parker has expressed to him his willingness to. become a candidate, but he will not enter into a scramble for the place. He is of the opinion, according to Mr. Murray, that the place should seek the man, and that the scram! that is now going on for the honor is unnecessary. Mr. Murray is accordingly still working up sentiment for Mr. Parker, and expressed the opinion to a Star reporter today that Mr. Parker would certainly be the choice of the republicans to the convention. Conditions Growing More Complicated The situation among the politicians is becoming more and more complicated by the appearance of new candidates in the field, the most recent accession being Mr. L. C. Bailey. The other candidates claim that they were surprised at his appearance in the contest, as he was a candidate for recorder of deeds when Mr. Cleveland ap- pointed Taylor. The other candidates are saying that he was then a democrat. Clubs have beei: organized in his interest in sev- eral of the districts. Still Hunting Succeeds Spenking. Speechmaking has been stopped, and the aspirants are organizing clubs and making still hunts for the place. One peculiar about the organization of the clubs is the fact that all of the heelers belong to all cf the clubs, and keep all of the candidates in- formed as to what the other candidates are doing. The politicians have frequented the vicinity of the city hall and the District building for the past three’or four months, but the cold weather has chased them in, and their former rendezvous presents a dreary appearance. ‘The work on the F street car line has given employment to some of them, but as soon as the candidates begin to put out the! sinews of war there will probably be se eral vacancies In the F street working brigade. —_.—__ RYLAND’S NEW PARSONAGE. Pastor Hartsock to Have a House- warming Tonight. ‘There has been such a rush to build new churches of late and replace old edifices that in nearly every Instance the church people appear to have forgotten all about the pastor, and the consequence is that there is hardly a modern parsonage in town. This is not the case with the con- gregation of Ryland M. E. Church, which is located at the corner of 10th and D streets southwest, for they, on the contrary, after placing considerable repairs on the church edifice in the latter part of May, went to work on the Ist of June and had a con- tractor at work building a brand new par- sonage In the latest style. This evening from 5 to 10 o'clock members of Ryland and local Methcdists In general will an opportunity to visit Rev. Dr. and Mrs. S. M. Hartsock in their new home, the oc- casion being the formal opening of the par- sonage. Bishop Hurst was expected to be present, but being called out of the city, his place will be taken by Presiding Elder Luther B. Wilson and a number of other local pastors, who have signified their in- tention of being present. The evening will be infermal in character, with the excep- ticn of one or two addresses and the serv- ing of a collation. In addition to the parsonage proper, a house, which has been rented to a tenant, has been erected adjoining the former building, which it very much resemb! The old structure was torn down, and wit the ground thus obtained and the addition of a lot directly in the rear of the church sufficient space was provided to permit of the buildings, having a combined width of forty-six feet and a depth of fifty-two feet. Both are three stories in height, with cel- lar, and fronts of pressed brick and brown. stone. The parsonage has on the first flo a sitting room and dining room and kitch- en, on the second floor a saloon parlor, two bed rooms and bath, and on the third’ floor four bed rooms. A new feature of the house is the manner of heating it. La- trobes have, of course, been provided for mild weather, but when the days grow win- try hot watcr will heat every room. The hot-water plant ts located in the church, and being connected with the parsonage by a system of pipes, permits the janitor of the church to look after the entire matter of heating. The Ladies’ Aid Society of the congregation has furnished the parsonage from top to bottom in the very latest fur- niture. Messrs. Francis and Schneider were the architects. _—— SEVERAL INDICT ‘TS RETURNED. Cases Found Against Housebrenkers and Other Alleged Criminals.

Reeves, the Banjoist, Quickly Ac- quitted by the Police Court Jury. In the Police Court yesterday afternoon, after the close of The Star's report in the case of “Al.” Reeves, charged with assault and attempted larceny by Mrs. Winifred Canty, Policeman Carlsson testified that he arrested the defendant on complaint of a messenger boy and went with him to Ker- nan’s Theater. Reeves denied that he had committed the offenre. Later, when Mrs. Canty was found, Reeves was arrested and taken to the station. Eugene Kernan, manager of the Lyceum Theater, testified that ‘‘41."" Reeves’ Com- pany played at the theatér during the week in which the alleged offense was committed. Mr. Reeves’ reputation, he said, was good. About 8:15 o'clock on the evening charged he left the theater with a Baltimore friend to go to the Bijou Theater, and when he left there Reeves was standing near the box office witnessing the sale of tickets. When he returned te the theater about 10 o’clock he was informed of Mr. Reeves’ arrest, and he thought it was a joke. Meyer Fisher, assistant manager of Ker- nan’s Theater, testified that he was person- ally acquainted with Mr. Reeves and he knew his reputation was good. Witness told of the defendant's leaving the theater that € ing, and said when he returned he said he had been arrested and accused of snatch- ing a lady’s pocket book, and asked that the jJady be sent for. Mrs. Annie Barton, who resided at 804 H street on September 13, in front of which house the ‘ault was committed, testified that she was sittirg in front of her house when the affair happened. She heard Mrs. Canty scream, and she also saw the man, who, she thought, was dressed in dark clothes. After a number of other witnesses were examined, the defendant took the stand in his own behalf. He declared his innocence, and said he had never before been arrested. On the night charged he said he had $400 in his pocket. He was very much surprised when the officer arrested lim, and thought at first that it was a joke. Short arguments were made, and the jury reached a verdict of acquittal in less than five minutes. Mr. Reeves received the congratulations of his friends who were present and this morn- ing left for Scranton, Pa., where ne will join his company. ——__ AMUSEMENTS Lafayette Square Opera House.—Last night Mr. Creston Clarke repeated his im- personation of Hamlet to the evident satis- faction of his audience.

Many of those present were in characteristic cos- tume, and the general effect was unique.
