Success * of the Grand Christmas Sale of PIANOS. The bargain we,:tiade with old Santa Claus to reduce every Upright Piano in stock between now and Christmas‘has resulted in Santa Claus buying more Pianos for gift giving this Xmas than ever before. We've a tre- mendous stock of Pianos, em- bracing several carloads of brand new Bradbury Uprights, just received from the factory. The chief characteristic of the new Bradbury cases is the quaint old hand carving with which they are decorated, the full swinging desk and the new Boston fall board. You are invited to in- spect the entire stock to your heart’s content, whether you wish to buy now or. later, and our salesmen will take pleasure in explaining the new “points” of the new instruments. We have thrown our doors wide open to Santa Claus this Christ- mas, and we are going to let him have all the pianos he wants to give to young and old at lower prices and on easier terms than ever before—on the one condition that the pianos are to be bought between now and Christmas. That great offering we made yesterday of a beau- tiful line of *| $250 Upright Pianos for $225, $10 monthly installments, Resulted in selling most of them this morning. Still a few left for those: who wijl do their buying at once. These Pianos are shown in beautiful mahog- any case, 7 I-3 octaves, 3- string- ed, ivory keys, full steel plate, continuous hinges, ‘patent swing- ing desk, three bédals and all the latest” improvements. Never thought of selling them before under $300!.: Tol/drive them out before Christmas,,we have marked, the price tag $225, and will let themgo on, $10 monthl. payments. » A -handsome ‘ hard- wood stool and silk embroidered silk scarf giveti withiedch piano. If you can, possibly spare the time we would advise ‘you to drop in-before 9 o'clock this evening and look at these in- struments, as they will probably be sold to the first comers to- morrow.

Used the Transom to Enter—Church Reconstruction and Other Local and General Notes. ‘The safe in the dry goods store of Craig & Jackson, 3140 M street, was robbed be- tween 8 o'clock last night and 7 this morn- ing. The visitor was In all probability a small person—perkaps a boy—as the tran- scm hole through which the entry was made is very narrow. The burglar had evidently surveyed the premises well in the day before practical work was begun. The safe, which is an old-fashioned one—locked with a key—was opened in the regular way, the proprietors’ key, kept secreted in the store, having been located. The contents of the safe were hauled out and scattered helter-skelter about. Great haste was used. Every evidence of the robbery seems to have been the outcome of much nervousness and agitation. Only about one-third of the safe’s money was taken. Something over $30 only was taken. Several bills of the denomination of $5, though plainly exposed, were missed in the grab, while the burglar burdened himself with 200 pennies. A package of money, wrapped and lying near the visible cash, was not among tke stuff stolen. The thief made his exit through the main rear door leading to a public alley. To effect the entrance the burglar made his way into an unoccupied rear room, used as a junk room, and from there climbed through the open transom, knocking down boxes, &c., which had been piled against it. The door beneath the transom has been kept nailed for years. The police are at work on the case. Lieut. Swindells, Sergt. Robey and Detective Bur- rows were early on the scene this morning hunting for clues. Officers Elected. ‘The Potomac Royal Arch Chapter election of officers at Masonic Hall last night re- sulted as follows: High priest, Charles W. Cornwell; king, Joseph A. Oliver; scribe, Wm. 8. Waddey; secretary, Fred. W. Storch; treasurer, Charles Becker. Charch Reconstruction. A meeting of the reconstruction commit- tee of the Dumbarton Street Church was held Monday night. The rebuilding of the edifice was practically discussed, and rep- resentatives of the church appointed to look to the financial end of the plan. The improvements, it is estimated, will cost about $12,000. The Cattle Market.

CONTINUED SUCCESS Teachers’ Bazaar Draws Both Peo- ple and Money. THE FEATURES LAST NIGHT Art Loan Exhibition Proves a Great Attraction. TONIGHT’S PROGRAM For an off night, last evening at the Teachers’ Bazaar was rather satisfactory, to say the least. It had been assigned to no particular division, but a special invita- tion was extended to the third, or that por- tion of it who had been unable to gain ad- mittance on the regular night, a week be- fore. There was no apparent falling off in the attendance, for as early as 7:30 o'clock open spaces on the floor were at a big premium, and the crowd did not di- minish in size until a late hour. It was a welcome throng, tco, for cash was dis- pensed by the visitors freely at all the booths. The administration booth was once more in charge of Mrs. A. T. Stuart, who, by her courteous treatment and kindly manner, has endeared herself to all connected with the bazaar. She was assisted by Mrs. IL. S. Lyon, Mrs. John T. Freeman and Mrs. H. B. Springer, all ex-teachers. The special program on the stage opened with a gypsy drill under the leadership of Miss Avis Ma- gee, and it was followed by an artistically executed piano solo by Miss Daisy Louise Fox. Later in the evening the Washington Saengerbund, under the direction of Prof. Wm. Waldecker, gave several selections, which were appreciated. The Saengerbund was then escorted around the hall by Donch’s Band. Another procession entered about 8:30 o'clock. It was made up of the National Guard Drum Corps and the fourth batta- lion, D. C. N. G., Maj. E. R. Campbell. The companies were the Emmet Guard, Capt. Harry Walsh; the Campbell Light Infantry, Capt: A. S. Odell, and the Ordway Rifles, Capt. J. M. Williams, and they all turned out with full ranks and pocketbooks. A sewing lesson in third grade work was given by Miss M. C. Henry, while Miss L. A. Jacobs presided over a class of young ladies who prepared cannelon of beef, to- mato sauce and corn muflins at the cookery exhibit, before an interested crowd of spec- tators. The regular manual training lesson was given by Mr. E. Baidwin. Some Features. While last evening was assigned to 10 perticular school or division, the Western High School, with its accustomed energy, placed itself in evidence all over the hall, and the attention of visitors was politely called to a superior line of embroidery and fancy work, where were shown the dain- test of doilies, centerpieces, tray cloths and table cloths, ranging in size from a sil- ver dollar to something less than a ten- acre lot, with all sorts of prices attached. The embroideries are carefully mounted on cardboard, covered with tissue paper in delicate colors, thus bringing out .the beauty of the work, and at the same time permitting an examination of the work withowt injury. ‘The Western also sells photograph frames of worked linen, crepe paper and birch bark, and sachet bags, cushions, lamp and candle shades, crochet work and a variety of trifles. In addition to the usual attractions, pretty girls and lbon-bons, the Western offers at the candy booth booklets cortaining tried recipes for candy that may be made at home. The foregoing are characterized as the stationary evidences of the Western at the great bazaar, the movable attractions being the now renowned camel, Nellie Bly, and her attending troupe of more or less genuine Arabs. The only drawback that has been developed in the faithful camel is that she obstinately refuses to kneel at the command, and_ therefore riders must mount from a platform, instead of in the customary eastern fashion. Another fea- ture representing the oriental tendencies of the Western is a band of Turks, who pro- pel sedan chairs with the utmost ease, and last, but not least, the Kamptown Soshul Klub makes its presence felt. The members, in their original costurmes of red, white and green, offer for inspection 2 choice assortment of military hat pins, stick pins, sleeve links, Western badges and the bazaar souvenir, a pretty poem, tastefully bound. The Klub also sings its characteristic songs each evening. Art Loan. The art loan exhibit, under the gallery, is attracting almost as much attention, in proportion, as the bazaar proper, and the costly works are daily and nightly viewed by critical and admiring visitors. The art department and public school exhibit, in the southwest corner of the hall, is also a drawing spot. The general effect is very pleasing, the entire corner being draped tn maroon, forming a suitable background for the iine collection of pictures contrib- uted by friends of the bazaar. They are displayed on the three walls of the large space, and, together with the articles and smaller pictures arranged on the counters and tables in tront, constitute the art sales department. The drawings are framed in oak fly-frames hanging on three stands. The first represents the first, sec- ond, third, fourth and fifth school year: the second stand, the sixth, seventh and eighth years, and the third stand, the High and Normal Schools. Modeling in clay, from the first to the eighth grade, inclusive, and from the Normal School, is also shown. The works include spe-imens by the leading local artists. Everybody Busy. All the officials connected with the bazaar are continuing their duties with untiring energy. Mr. Stuart was on hand last even- ing, the only evidence of the accident to him Sunday being a slight limp. One of the hardest workers connected with the affair is Mr. Gage, the efficient supervising principal of second division A, whose labors for the success of the enterprise have been many, in spite of his dignified appearance and well-known reputation for strict and constant attention to his schovl duties. A new use for the adminis tion booth developed last evening, when it was pressed into service as a lost child bureau. A little girl became separated from her moth- er in the throng and was weeping bitterly when discovered by a big policeman, who piloted her to the booth. There Mrs. Stuart stopped the flow of tears in a moment and the anxlous mother soon found the little one. The afternoon sessions have grown very popular and the attendance is increasing steadily. The docrs are thrown open at 1 o'clock and thus an excellent opportunity is given those who desire to purchase arti- cles at their leisure The impression that the prices charged at the bazaar are € crbitant Is declared to be erroneous, and the management desires to state that everything offered for sale is at a price below what is ordinarily charged. Medal Contest. The contest for the gold medal among the eighth grade boys of the fourth division is to be decided this evening. The Jefferson school is represented by John Downey, the Smaflwood by Charles Price and the Bradley by Charles Jesse. The pupils of the schools are warmly interested in the success of their respective candidates, and the close of the contest is expected to be a leading feature of the evening. Tonight's Program. This evening is expected to be the banner night of the week, if not of the entire ba- zaar. It has been assigned to the fourth division, and all South Washington kas been reserving its forces to make the cc- casion a memorable one. If It ts not neces- sary to close the doors before 8 o'clock the folks from Mr. Fairbrother’s section will surely be disappointed. An unusually at- tractive program has been arranged. It includes selections by the pupils of Miss Katie V. Wilson and the Cecilian Quartet, and solos by Miss Bertie Thompson, Mrs. W. H. Wilson, Miss Alice Pilisbu Miss Katie V. Wilson and Miss Helen Nye. Carrie Dyer will £ National Mandolin Club, tion of Miss Alice Marble, w Miss Elis as pianist, is to contribute several num- bers. Miss Florence McGuirk will cute a dance of ail nations, and there will also be fancy dancing by the pupils of Miss Gussie Sproesser, the sprightly youngsters LILLIAN NORDICA, Brilliant Star in the Oper- atic Constellation. Has Made Many Conquests in Grand Opera and at Music Festivals, One of the First Attributes of Operatic Success, The name of Lillian Nordica is one with which every music lover, every one at all acquainted with the history of grand opera in this coun- try, and Europe as well, is perfectly familiar. It is a name to conjure with. ‘Her progress up the ladder of fame to the topmost round has been both rapid and steady. There has a little if anything to impede it. tep by step she has climbed up the ieche of fame and popuiarity, un- til now in the very zenith of her am- Litions, she appears to be, if possi- ble, more of a favorite than ever. Not to have seen and heard Nor- dica is to have missed the oppor- tunity of a lifetime. Like many another operatic gen- ius, Nordica is a hard student, a pa- tient and painstaking worker. On this account she more than once ex- perienced the ill effects of excessive labor, of overwork. “This was no- tably the case last season, when, other remedies failing, she had re- course to the GENUINE JO- HANN HOFF’S MALT EX- TRACT. Here is what she says of this in- valuable nerve tonic: “I have used JOHANN HOFF’S MALT EX- TRACT, and find it most beneficial, as well as agreeable.

Amos Smith, the driver of Blair’s bread wagon, of Washington, had a very narrow escape from being killed yesterday in this city. He had just gotten down from Wash- ington over the road, and was going over his route delivering bread to his customers. As he drove along Oroncco street the rat- tling of his wagon prevented Fis hearing the approach of the north-bound Chesa- peake and Ohio train, and he did not see it until he wes on the track and the train was almost on top of him. Fortunately, how- ever, the engineer of the train saw him in time to reverse his engine, and as it was moving slowly he was able to bring it to a standstill, not five feet from the wagon. The narrow escape was witressed by quite a number of persons, and considerable ex- citement was caused. Davis Post. | The Thomas P. Davis Post of the Grand Army of the Republic, at their regular meeting, held last night, elected the follow- ing officers for the ensuing year: A. B. Travers, past commander; W. P. Graves, senior vice commander; George W. Armor, ir., vice commander; J, C. Calhoun, chap- lain; James Lanham, surgeon; W. T. Em- merson, termaster; Wm. Shinn, officer of the da: David Miller, officer of the guard; Charles Irvin, sentinel, and J. V. Davis, representative to the department encampment, with W. P. Graves as alter- nate. After the election of officers the post was inspected by Assistant Department Commander Captain J. V. Davis, and pass- ed an excellent examination. City Council. The rezular meeting of the city council was held last night in the council cham- bers, in the market building. The only thing of interest that carae up for con- sideration was the petition of the police commissioners for an increase of four po- licemen. The friends of the bill did not urge its passage cwing to the slim num- ber of members present, but li is expected that it will be passed at the next meeting of council. The board of aldermen con- curred with the lower board in referring an ordinance providing for the inspection of buildings, and regulating the construction and repairing of buildings within the eity limits, to the committees on public prop- erty and streets. Will! = ¢ried Monday. City Sergeant smith has been busy all the morning serving the summonses on the wit- nesses in the case of Post and Henry, the two white men who some time ago assault- ed and robbed Mr. Alexander McClintock in Fairfax county, as mentioned in The Star at the time. They will be tried next Mon- day at Fairfax Court House. A large crowd from this city will go to hear this trial, as both of the young men are well known. Charter Granted. Judge J. K. M. Norton of the corporation court yesterday granted a charter to the Chillum Castle Land Company, the objects cf which are to lease, buy, sell and improve lcnd in Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania ard the District of Columbia.

Reiside, treasurer, all of W: ashington. Could Dance the Buck. Yesterday afternoon while Officer Young was patrolling his beat he saw a large crowd on South Henry street. He hasten- ed to see what the trouble was, and found a white woman about forty-five years of age drunk. She was amusing the crowd by dancing. The officer put her under ar- rest and took her to the station house. On the way she told the officer that “she was an Irish lady and could dance the buck with any of them.” Th's morning the mayor fined her $2.50, end not having the necessary change, she will have a chance to dance to her heart's content for the next lifteen days.
