24 THE EVENING STAR, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 14, 1895-TWENTY-FOUR PAGES. Se eee eee ANACOSTIA, Mr. Thomas F. Kinsella, a young Ana- costia merchant, and Miss Fannie C. Minor of No. C street southerst were. married last night at the Christian Church, on 9th street nortLeast, by the pastor, Rev. E. B. Bagby. Mr. and Mrs. Kinsella will, it is said, reside In Anacostia, They are the couple whose experience in endeavoring to get married for a week or more past has been co remarkable as to lead to publica- tions of the various incidents in the news- papers. As heretofore stated in The Star, there was considerable oppesition on the part of the bride's parents to their daughter be- coming a wife at her early age, being but sixteen years old, but the young woman was so persistent in her determination to marry the man of her choice that they finally yielded, and the marriage took Place, as above stated Policeman Dyer of the Anacostia police station yesterday captured three tramps in a car of the Pennsylvaria Railroad Com- pany near Twining City. The tramps were taken to the station, where they gave their names as Joseph Williams, William Cass and Charles Crawford. A charge of suspi- cion was Icdged against each man, because the seal of the car in which they were found was broken, to do which is a serious crime; but it is Coubtful if this charge will be pressed, as it is thought that the au- thorities will not be able to prove that the breaking was done Inside the District. The mass meeting of the Sunday schools of Anacostia, whicn was held lest night at the Anacostia Baptist Church, Rev. H. T. Stevenson, pastor, was a very pleasant af- fair. Preceding the rerdition of the regu- lar exercises, a praise meeting was con- ducted by Rev. J. B. North, pastor of the Gard2n Memorial Charch. The program of, the regular exercises, which were treated in short papers and followed by brief ad- dresses, was as follows: “The Sunday School at Work,” Rev. F. A. Stier; “Value ystem in Primary Work.” Miss Burr; me Good Things From the Late Con- vention,” L. D, Alden; “A Blackboard Nor- mal Lesson,” Dr. RQ. P. Hickling; “Our Dis- trict Sunday Scho Field,” J. F. Johnson; “Teaching the Sunday School Lesson for Sabbath Next.” P. H. Bristow. The special meeting of Mineola Tribe, No. 14, Improved Order of Red Men, which was held last night at their wigwam in Ma- sonic Hall, was more than usually Interest- irg, ard the attendance was much greater than {s generally the case. Degrees were sonferred on several successful candida‘es, and it is understood several applications tor membership were received. BROOKLAND. of Mr. Joseph Quick of “Enfield, Tompkins county, N. Y., is visiting his aunt, Mrs. Co- lumbus Murphy of Oak Grove. Preparations are being made among some of the grades at the Brookland school for a little entertainment before the Christmas holidays. Songs and recitations will com- prise the greater part of the program. The grading of the site for the Catholic Church fs nearly completed, so it will not be long before the foundation will be com- menced. Last night at the teachers’ bazaar was particularly set aside for sixth division A, which ircludes the Brookland and Soldier’s Home school, both of which were well rep- resented. Hosts of people from this vicinity attended the bazaar, and showed in many ways a spirit of generousness and a sym- pathy with the organization. Miss L. Bailey, Miss M. Given, Miss Riley, Miss Bogan and Mr. C. K. Finckel of the Brookland school and Miss King, Miss Minnie Compton and Mr. Draper of the Soldier's Home school Were present. Besides the teachers of this vicinity who were on the reception commit- tee Mrs. R. R.West, wife of Rev. R. R. West of the Brookland Baptist Church also was of this committee. One of the most appro- priate features of the evening was a flag dance by some of the Misses Hawk's pupils, in which the girls represented “Liberty” and the boys “Uncle Sam.” Much enthusiasm Was exhibited, and “Old Glory,” the division badge, reigned supreme. The Methodists of Brookland anticipate presenting a fine Christmas tree entertain- ment for the children during the holidays.

From the Florida Times-Union, ‘The historic Welaka river, the modern St. John’s, is to the stranger one of the most in- teresting rivers on the American continent. It is unique in many particulars which go to make up a river. Finding its source in the far south, it flows northward for nearly all its length, until, reaching the metropolis of Florida, {t turns eastward, and pours its great volume of waters Into the ocean. This fact seems the more strange since the uni- versal opinion prevails that the extreme south Is low and flat, and would leave the impression that the river ran up hill as it cuts Its way through the much higher land of our northern boundary.

With one of those good intentions with which the infernal regions are sald to be paved, an economic up-town housewife re- cently dyed her hubby's shabby hat. The operation was performed with a tooth brush and a package of patent dye, un- known to the owner of the headgear, who put his hat on before it was dry and sal- Ned forth to his Chestnut street office. On drying, the gderby turned 4 beautiful bronze, attracting no little attention as its ignorant and blissful wearer passed through the principal streets. Before he reached the office he was caf&eht in a shower, and when he afterward-saw_him- self in a mirror his countenance wag dec- orated like that of an Indian chieftain in war paint. The dye wasn’t fast black—in- deed, it wasn’t even black—and to the pre- judiced eye of the unhappy husband it seemed to have been composed of green, pink, blue, purple and yellow. The lecture he delivered on “false economy” when he reached home would have done credit to Mrs. Caudle. see AUCTION SALES OF REAL ESTATE, &e. Monday.
