THE VOTING OONTESTS The last night but one of the big teachers’ bazaar was assigned to the sixth division, and again Convention Hall was packed to overflowing. It was also Friday night, and for that reasoh many attended who would otherwise have remained at home, because it 1s necessary for teachers and pupils to be at school each morning in the week with the exception of Saturday. The camel, prob- ably feeling that its reign will soon be over, acted real skittish last evening and dashed through the crowd and bumped against people without the semblance of an apology. At the administration booth the receiving party was larger than on any other evening. The representatives of sixth division A were Mrs. R. R. West, chairman; Mrs. A. L. Stur- tevant, Mrs. J. W. Somerville, Mrs. J. W. Chappell, Mrs. J. L. Norris and Misses Brewer, Harmon, Muntz, Pimper, Ol'ver, Otterbeck, Shafer, Bailey and Given, and r. Horton Simpson. The friends of ‘sixth division B were greeted by a party consis' ing of Mrs. John T. Freeman, chairma: Mr. and Mrs. H. A. Griswold, Mrs. Boutwell, Mrs. E. A. Voorhees, Mrs. W. B. Shaw and Miss Mary Godding. On the Platform. On the stage the attractive program in- cluded fancy dances by the pupils of Misses Minnie and May Hawke, as follows: Flag dance, Misses Annie May O'Toole, Irene Burdine, May Frost, Frankie Jones, India King, Louise Kirby, Edna Kingman, May Belle Owen, Marguerite O'Toole, Lizzie Rudd, Mary Sheridan and Master Ear! Phelps; Cupid dance, Miss Helen Durim; pas de fleurs, Miss Edna Kingman; pickanjnnie band, Masters Willie Collier, James O'Toole, Edward Gibbons and Miss Lizzie Rudd. ‘The Mount Pleasant Field Band, under the direction of Mr. J. C. Churchill, rendered a number of selections, including a cornet solo by Master Alvin Quinter. Mr. Howard Rhine interested the audience with an exhi- tution of fancy bi also some excellent fancy club swinging by Mr. Fred. Doyle. The invited guests were the members of President's Troop A and they made a pretty showing as they entered the hall in full dress uniform with yellow trimmings, headed by the Mount Pleasant Field Band. Capt. Harrison 8. Barbour was in command of the troop. Sixth Division. The sixth division made a particularly good showing last evening. A feature that pleased the young folks was a red school house, in which thirty-six dolls, with a doll teacher, were at work. The exhibit is a true representation of the school rooms of the District. The tiny desks, modeled after the larger ones, the number tables at the rear of the rcom, the blackboard in front, with the teacher's desk at one side of the room, all gave a correct idea of the real appearance of the rooms. The sixth seem- ed to be especially loyal to its profession. It deals with little folks in real life and with them in miniature at the bazaar. Dolls are the specialty of the division, and they are shown in all sizes, colors and condi- tions. There is a bride dressed in real satin and orange blossoms, and another in full evening dress. Then there is William Penn, apparently shocked by the careless abandon of a ballet girl by his side. Uncle Tom and Little Eva are hobnobbing with a German peasant girl, and a dark Castilian beauty stands contrasted with a fair-haired Saxon baby. Santa Claus presides over a corner in which African, Chinese, American and German children ‘abide without the least suspicion of a race quarrel. The badges of the sixth division B worn last evening were tiny bables, clothed in lMght blue satin gowns. The division was represented in the candy booth, and it also conducted the blue and white fish pond. Biscuit, salads and coffee were made last evening ‘at the cooking department by a class presided over by Miss E. W. Cross. Sleeve drafting was the sewing lesson given by Mrs. E. R. Thornton. The manual train- ing lesson was conducted by Mr. F. L. Har- ries. Today and Tonight. Te bazaar will positively close this even- irg, when mainly grown folks are to be admitted. No children, unless accompanied by adults, or unless they are directly in- terested In the voting contests, will be al- lowed to pass the doors. A special matinee was given today, beginning at 11 o'clock. It was largely attended, and a special pro- ram presented for the amvsement of the The entertainment began at 1 and was opened by the oriental drill by pupils of Miss Macfarland, which was also presented Thursday evening.

S. M. Ryder, Chas. Finckel and S. E. Kramer, who will an- rounce the results Monday. ‘The list of articles being competed for in the voting contests resembles a state elec- tien ticket in its length aud the number of entries. Prominent among the articles which have attracted attention is a $900 Knabe piano, ich 1s being voted for by the Central }iizh School, the Force School and the Harrison School. Until yesterday the Cen- tral had a good lead in the contest, but the Force has unexpectedly developed voting ability of a high order, and, as the pupils cf that school intend ‘to use Saturday in canvussing their wealthy territory, the re- sult is in doubt. Perhaps no contest will bring the fair greater returns from a small capital than the contest for tie officer's sword, which is to be voted to the most popular officer of the High School Cadets. Capt. Von Bayer of the first battalion is supposed to have noughyotes to overcome any single rival, but there is rumor of a “sword trust” among the officers of the second battalion, which may make matters interesting. In the matter of bicycles the city dealers ve been unusually generous to the ba- th five excellent wheels to be dispo These have been so placed to enlist in the contest school spirit as 11 as individual interest. There is a Liberty bicycle, donated by W. D. Hadger, to be voted to the most popular pupil in the Business or the Western High School; a Crawford for the most popular girl, and " the most popular boy of the a Crescent for the most popu- econd division B; a Warwick for the t popular pupil of the Central or the Eastern High School, and a Sterling for sixth division B. ‘The other articles have been described tofore in The Star. Thus far the vot- ing has been entirely by means of books, which are in the hands of pupils. Voting returns were being made today at the vot- ing booth, which is open all day. This Evening.

Turned Over to the Board of Chil- dren’s Guardians. When the “Black Marla” reached the Police Court today, and the thieves,tramps, disorderly persons and others appeared when the deor wa opened, two little chil- dren, Bertha and’ Léwis Mudd, fourteen and seven years 61d, stepped out, and the cries of the little’ ones excited the sym- pathy of the court, officers, They had been taken from their,,bed in their parents’ house, in Cherry alley; Georgetown, so they said, and when they-reached court they enjoyed the hot coffee and rolls furnished by the caterer. The children had been brought into court because the authoritiés alleged that they were in immoral ‘surroundings, and were not well cared fon Agent Parkman of the board of children’s guardians, and Mrs. Waters, who has charge of the Georgetown division of the Afsocfated Charities, were witnesses in Judge Miller's court in the case, as were Li Swindells and Police- man Bradley. Last winter the children were frequent visitors at the police station and Associ- ated Charities for assistance, and all dur- ing the summer they have received some little assistance. Mrs. Waters, who had called at the house of the Mudds, thought there was not more'in the house than was necessary to keep body and soul together. Witnesses stated that Mrs. Mudd was the mother of colored twins,who are now more than two years old. Mrs. Mudd explained that these children were born after her return from a sum- mer resort, where she did hotel work for some months. The colored man, father of the children, she has not seen’ for three years. She admitted that her husband ts a drinking man, and claimed that she would properly care for her children if they were not taken from her. Her husband, father of the two children in question, also made a statement, in which he claimed that he was able to sup- port the children. He said he had been married twenty-five years, and had never been separated from his wife. Judge Miller thought this was such a case as the law contemplates, and made an order turning the children over to the board of children’s guardians. Then followed a sad scene, the children clinging to their parents and all of them crying and pleading for a change of the order of the court, and it was with some difficulty that the parents and children were taken from the court room. —— THE COURTS.
