Je5-4d IN GEORGETOWN AFFAIRS An Old Man Arrested for Overloading His Vehicle. The Guardians of the Law Puzzled About the Rear Axle of a Cart. A poor old colored man, a poor old horse and a poor old cart, laden with lumber from an old razed house, were all taken in yester- day by an officer on complaint of Dr. Wil- liam Ward, who charged the driver, John Fowler, with violating the police regula- ticns. It appears that the prisoner piled the lumber on until it extended over fifteen feet beyond the cart’s axle in the rear, and from six to eight feet on either side, and Dr. Ward’s buggy was made a victim of the cverloading, being struck and smashed by the side pieces. The police regulations make it an offense to load a wagon with lumber ten feet beyond the rear axle. Fowler's old vehicle being a cart, it was a litile perplex- ing to determine exactly which and where the rear axle was, but it was easily seen that there was a violation of the regulations in the loading, and Fowler was put under arrest. His lumber was being taken from an old house near Washington Circle to a lot in Rosslyn, where a new house was to be Luilt from it. An Errant Lad. Marcellus Active, a bright little colored boy, about three feet tall, with a long record for misdemeancrs, and who has twice escaped from the custody of the beard of children’s guardians, was cap- tured for the second time yesterday by Officer Connor. Marcellus was hiding on “Herring Hill.” This time he will prob- ably be given a big dose of reform school discipline. A Pleasnnt Social. At the Presbyterian Church here last night there was a “social” of musical and literary excellence under the auspices of the Y. P. S. C. E.. The attendance was large, and the enjoyment uninterrupted and genuine. The program included Mr. J. J. Fisher, the popular baritone, in a selection from “Faust;” Miss Bangs, solo, ‘Love Dreams;” Mr. John Lewis of the Linthi- cum Students, in a recitation of “The Seven Ages;” Miss Altice Pillsbury, solo, “The Holy City; Miss Helen Nye, solo; Miss Lulu Roberts, solo, “In All Eternit; Mrs. William L. Wilson, solo, accompanied by Miss Katie Wilson. The Cecilian Quar- tet, composed of Miss Pillsbury, Miss Nye, Mrs. Wilson and Miss Roberts, scored a big hit in plantation melodies. There were many encores. Notes. The first of the winter series of services for men only will be held at St. John’s Church at 7:30 p.m. Sunday next. Rev. A. M. Hilliker will make the address. All men are invited. Mr. and Mrs. James T. O'Neal of this place, who were recently married in Bal- timore, are now living at 502 4th street southeast, where they will be pleased to see their friends. —_— The Washington Light Infantry.

DOUBT AS TO ASSESSING BENEFITS a Application to Be Made to Con. gress for Remedial Legislation. COST OF THE IMPROVEMENTS Se As stated in Tuesday's Star, the Commis- sioners are considerably exercised over the seeming defects discovered in the act relat- ing to the extension of highways, and will lose no time in applying to Congress for the legislation needed to correct the supposed errors. Upon tae success of their efforts in Congress depends, perhaps, the sav- ing to the District of a large sum of money. Should the condemnation pro- ceedings continue, and the jury of awards, in accordance with the terms of the act, assess damages and bene- fits, and should the courts afterward hdld the act to be unconstitutional or inoperative, us far as it related to the assessment of benefits, the entire cost of the extension would have to be borne by the District. The benefit clause was inserted at the suggestion of the Commissioners, in order io lessen the cost of the work to the District. They argued that in many instances the streets opened and extended would benefit the abutting property to a large degree, and the owners’ thereof should be mace to bear a proportionate share of the burden of im- provement. Advice of the Attorney. Several interviews, it is understood, have been held by the Commissione with the attorney for the District upon this sub- ject, and he has advised that the law be amended before there is any actual taking of preperty by the District. ‘The law relating to the assessments is vague in its terms. It says that the as- sessments shall be levied against the “property benefited thereby,” and it is claimed that a street might be extended in the northwest and property far removed, Say in the city proper, be benefited there- by. Yet it is hardly to be presumed, the authorities think, that the law intended all property, no matter how far removed, should be assessed for the benefits some distant street might bring to it. The Court of Appeals spoke in unmis- takable terms in a similar case, when the Commissioners attempted to collect dam- ages from the Prospect Hill cemetery for the benefit the property received through the extension of North Capito! street. The court decided adversely and held that th> District had no right to so assess. it has been stated for some time that the lawyers representing those property helders who opposed the extension of streets were only waiting an opportunity to attack the con- stitutionality of the act. The early pro- ceedings, it has been stated, were decided in favor of the District on account of its plea that no land had actually been taker, and until this was done there could be no suit at law. ——.—__.

As the mother church of the denomination in this city, the exercises will be held with especial fitness within the walls of a building which is so inti- mately associated with many events of in- terest in the history of the nation’s capital.

Sargent and Octavius Knight, a program was final- ly approved, which is as follows: November Sunday morning—Historical sermon by Rev. Byron Sunderland, 1).D.

Wednesday evening !s known as the local evening, as the speakers will be Washing- tonians, and the subject of their addresses strictly local. Rev. George O.

Foster will represent the Presby- terian Alliance of Washington city, of which he is president. Rev. J. G. Butler, D.D., pastor of tne Luther Memoriai Church, the oldest pastor in point of sery- ice in Washington, will bring the greetings of the other denominations to the Presby- terians or this centennial anniversary. Friday evening's reception will have addi- tional inter2st to the friends of Dr. Sunder- land from the fact it is his birthday. —_—_ SIMPLIFYING TAX CERTIFICATES. The District Commissioners Issue a Much-Needed Order. According to a recent ruling of the Com- missioners, the assesSor may include in one tax certificate a list of all taxes due and un- paid upon all lots in squares which are num- bered consecutively, or upon several lots where the numbers run consecutively. Heretofore when it was desired to obtain a tax certificate it was customary to issue a separate certificate for each lot or part of lot. This involved not only an additional ex- penditure on the part of the applicants, for each certificate cost fifty cents, but also en- tailed a large amount of extra work. It was necessary before the certificate was issued to pass several offices and receive the in- © dorsements as to the taxes due. Consider- able time was thereby lost in this method, and often a transfer of real estate was de- layed for considerable time because of this. ttention of the Commissioners by the assessor, Mr. Matthew Trimble, who realized the advan- tages that accrue from the new method. The attorney for the District wa@ asked to give a lezal opinion on the subject, and he decided that Mr. Trimble’s point was well taken, and that the Commissioners had ample authority to make an order covering his recommendation. > A Lutheran Young People's Union, Pursuant to a call issued by Mr. Lucius D. Alden, superintendent of St. Paul's Lutheran Sunday school, a number of young people representing six of the Luth- eran Churches of this city met last even- ing in the lecture room of St. Paul's to formulate plans, ete., looking towa Young People’s Union’ of the Lutheran Church. Mr. Alden was chosen chairman. A very full and free discu: pn took place and as a result the chairman on motion of Mr. Randolph was authorized to appoint a committee of one from each of the churches with Mr. Alden, additional, as chairman. This committee to present plans and a con- stitution ut a subsequent meeting to be held at the call of the chairman. — > Ornithologists’ Union.
