HIGH SCHOOL COMPETITION The sounds of hammers and of busy feet, the handling of lumber and th2 arranging of pleasing colors, has begun in and will be the most prominent feature of Conven- tion Hall until Monday evening next, when the immense bazaar of the Teachers’ An- nuity and Aid Association is to be formally opened. Although hundreds of active per- sons have been hard at work for weeks past tho busiest time for all will be during the time intervening till the opening. Many of the teachers have been forced to give up Thanksgiving jaunts out of the city in order to devote the holiday to pre- paratory work for the bazaar. The schools closed this afternoon, us custom ary every year, and will not reopen until Monday. One of the striking features of the ba- zazr, already seen in the,school room and on the street, is badges. That the love for personal adornment is as great in the mesculine as in the feminine breast and utterly incommensurate with the degree of culture, is nowhere better exemplified than in the schools now when the “division badge” is the order of the day. From the first grade up to the Normal School, teachers and pupils, male and female, are bedecked, beribboned, beflagged and in gen- eral vastly improved by the bright badges, distinguishing their fealty to this or that section or school which they wear. Some of the devices are very pretty, some curious and some whimsical, but all are good, in that they are the outward sign of an inward and patriotic pride for the school they represent. The Normal School leads off with an appetizing little pickle, emblematic of the coming trade in pickles and preserves to be conducted by the em- bryo teachers at a special table at the ba- zaar. The several high schools wear the colors so familiar on drill day and at foot ball games—white and blue, red and. white. and blue and orange, but at the Busine: High School the importance of the occ sion is emphasized by the construction of the mingled colors into a twisted cord of striking effect. The first division, whose specialty is toys, has a little badge, a “Brownie,” with a jJangling Second division A is repre- sented by a minute basket, daintily tied by ar bit of ribbon and symbolic of the specialty of the division at the bazaar. The third division has a pink butterfly. Sixth division A a doll of blue ribbon, and the others equally pretty and appropriate conceptions. The High Schools. The most important matter concerning the four high schcols at present is the coming bazaar, to be held from December 2 to 14, for the Teachers’ Annuity and Aid Association. Each high school seems to be trying to get ahead of the others, from the amount of energy and enthusiasm that is being put forth by them in their friendly rivalry. Five tat les in the west ceutral part of Convention Hall are assigned to them, two being given to the Centril and one each to the Western, Business and Eastern schools. So far the people from over the creck are the only cnes who are sure of being able to fill their table, and are asking for more space, while the Central seems to have the least number of articles in proportion to the amount of space allotted to it. Upon the tables of the Central will be found an extensive -as- sortment of fancy work, a piece of which is | being brought in by very nearly every pupil to the custodians, Mrs. Annie Morrow Wi son and Miss Della Pollok ing th® table of the West il be found | the same style embroidery as that of the | x and a large number of hat and | . which have been manufactured | by the girls from military brass buttons and It is also the purpose of the Western alf dozen boys dressed up as der the leae of Mr. Burke, y people around the hall in sedan che ics in the saine manner as at the world’s atern everybody tira ts worklng with | ole nd always lands them in lers, while the Business school is prepared to supply its booth with a full Stock of yeast powder bottles and boxes and Vaseline bottles filled with a cleaning pow- der, which was prepared for their special purpose by a well-known chemist of this | ‘They will also have some table spreads te and ¢ of lamp ieces ard a gorgeous profusion des. Principal Prizes. There are four prizes which the High Schools will make especial efforts to ob- tain, namely, a piano, valued at $%W), to be given to the school that collects the great- est amount in subscriptions; a lady's sa ty bicycle, to be given to ihe young lady s the greatest number of votes ‘8 sword, to be awarded to the joned officer who receives the | number of subscription shares at ch, and a diamond ring for the ar lady teacher. ‘The Central school is determined to ob- tain the piano, to replace the old one which has so long stood in its convention hall.

Berry head the list by placing allof its ghares to his credit, while the Eastern and Business will probably confine their shares to Capt. Nelson Gapen and Capt. Newtgn Ferree, respectively. The same plan .as that adopted by the second battalion is being carried out by the Central companieay which compose the first battalion, with the ,exception that they are rot going to vote fer any particular officer, as all of them attend the one school. Every energy and nerve will have to be strained, and an extra effort made by the Central, if it hopes to be victorious over the other three schools, as they greatly outnumber the former. —_——_ BICYCLE ROAD RACES Arrangements for the Events Tomorrow Morning. Riders and Their Handicaps — Also the Officers and the Hand- some Prizes, Probably in no single bicycle event of this 4£0n Eas so much interest been centered in the Sterling road race, which will be held tomorrow morning at 11 o'clock cver the Conduit read course of twenty miles. The clearing of the weather has been most joyously welcomed by all of th2 local cy- clists, and there appears to be nothing now in the way to mar the sport temcrrow morning. The road has about dried suffi- cient to make good riding, and the only disadvantage which {s likely to occur for the racers will be a stiff? wind, which springs up witheut much noiice at this sea- son of the year. If the wind is very great it will be disastrous for record time over the course in the race. The changing ot the time of the race. from the afterncon to morning will bring out many additional as there are no other offairs at the same tme to draw the attention of te public, The hendicapping of the riders was per- fcrmed by Mr. William Jose, and this morning he turned over the result to the rojector of the race, Mr. W.

AN IMPORTANT QUESTION SEPPLED Official Action at the District Office on Various Subjects. NOTES OF INTEREST Hereafter ali street railways using rapid transit will be required to stop their cars on the near side of the street. This important order was made by the Commissioners today, and will be inserted im the new police regulations. There was considerable discussion on the subject, it is understood. Major Powell was in favor, it is said, of the far side of the street, while Commissioner Truesdell favored the near side. A vote was had on the subject during Commissioner Koss’ absence in Iilinois which disclosed the division. When the subject was called before the entire board Commissioner Ross voted with Commis- sioner Truesdell and the regulation was adopted Now that this important question has been settled, anether matter has been called to the attention of the Commissioners, and | they will very likely make a regulation gov- | erning it. According to a recent statement of President Phillips of the Metropolitan Railroad Company, there are no rules and | regulations governing the crossings of rapid transit cars in the city. This brings about a dangerous condition of affairs, and he has urged in a letter to the Commissioners that a regulation be added to the police regula- tions governing the subject. He thinks that the same system which is in vogue in other cities should be adopted here, namely, a system of signaling between the motormen of the intersecting line If such an ar- rangement is perfected ne says there will be no trouble, and the danger of collision will be reduc2d to a minimum. President Dunlop of the Capital Traction Company, it will be recalled, is in favor of stationing flagmen at the several intersec- tions, be‘ieving that such a scheme ts far safer in every way than any system of signaling that could be devised.

Charge Lodged Against Charles Mobley. . Chevy Chase Hunt Club Will Be Live- ly This Wiater—Annual Visitation and Winter Charity. Charles’ Mobley, who is being held for robbery from the person of G. HE. Richards, a@ canal boatman, has had another similar charge fastened axuinst him. It Is alleged that on November 5 he attacked Wm. H. Riley while passing’ through Jones alley, near the canal, and took from him $4. One of Mobley’s pals “blew” on him. Riley is lvath to prosecute. He is an employe of the Zoological Park. Mobley is a plasterer by trade, and is about twenty-one years of age. He has been liv- ing with his widowed mother at 1221 32d street. Up to within a recent date he bore a good reputation. The prisoner got $27 from Richards, snatching it from his hand while the man was engaged in counting it on 30th street. Chevy Chase Club. The Chevy Chase hunters will have their first meet of the season Saturday after- noon, The rain yesterday prevented Mr. S. S. Howland from showing his twenty-seven ‘hunters over the jumps. These animals are just from the acknowledged sporting horses of New York, and are looked upon as a big acquisition to the Chevy Chase hunters. Mr. Howland will hunt with his horses here all the winter. Everts will be numercus this season in Chevy Chase cir- cles. The introduction of new horses and new enthusiasts promises to instigate high interest. The d:sorganization of the Wood- ley Hunt Club has caused a centering of all equestrian sports in the Chevy Chase Club. The Satugday hunt will be a drag. “The kennels of the club now contain over a hundred hounds. Annual Visitation. The annual visitaticn was made to Poto- mac Royal Arch Chapter, No. 8, last night.

A Leader in His Profession Who Believes in Perfect Digestion. © What He Cinatlon a Nutritious Tonic. Throughout the medical profes- sion, but particularly in Paris and on the continent, the name of Prof. Prosper de Pietra Santa is as familiar as a household word. His knowl- edge of medicine is profound, and his great experience as a student and professor of physiology have long since made for him a reputation séc- ond to none in his chosen pursuit: His opinion, therefore, on what- ever topic relating to the science of medicine is of great value, and “is looked forward to with intense eager- ness, not alone by the medical frater- nity, but also by the masses in gen- eral, who have long since learned to | appreciate his prescriptions. Fo | quote an old maxim which says, “A | stitch in time saves nine,” Prof. Santa is a firm believer in the saving qual- ity of nutrients, as applied to sustain health, and although he believes in the use of tonics he is rather opposed to stimulants, which he says are an injury rather than a benefit to diges- | tion. Prof. Santa’s exact words in favor of JOHANN HOFF’S MALT EX- TRACT may as well be quoted. Speaking of this great nutritive and nerve tonic, he says: “As a large | number of patients lacked the neces- sary power to digest solid food, and would through the use of stimulants | be merely excited and weakened, | therefore, I regard it of immense value to the practitioner to bring ‘to | his aid a nutriticus tonic and remedy like the JOHANN HOFF’S MALT | EXTRACT, which will act not only as a tonic, but as a nutrient as well, and which is less exciting than wine as a substitute.” The genuine JOHANN HOF BS MALT EXTRACT exalts the ener- | gies and stimulates the nutritive pow- | ers, without exciting the system.
