CARDINAL SATOLLYT Brilliant Reoeption in His Horer at the Uatholic University. A Notable Gathering of Distinguished People at MeMahon Hall—Handsome Decorations and Good Music. The reception tendered to Cardinal Sa- tolli by the rector and faculty of the Cath- olic University yesterday afternoon was a very brilliant affair. It was held in the big reception hall on the second floor of the handsome new McMahon Hall, which was thronged for several hours with a gather- ing representative of the ecclesiastical, so- cial and official life of the capital. Invitations had been sent to the Presi- dent, the Vice President, the members of the cabinet, the members of the dfplomatic corps, the members of the Senate and House, the officers of the army and navy residing in Washington, ‘the heads of de- Partments and bureaus and many leading Private citizens. There were also in at- tendance a large number of the archbish- ops and bishops who were present at Car- dinal Satolli’s elevation at the cathedral in Baltimore last Sunday. . A Memorable Scene. The scene in Assembly. Hall was 2 mem- orablesone. The vast apartment had been sumptuously decorated for the occaston. The windows were heavily draped with hangings of cardinal red, festooned at their tops with white and gold. The walls and ceilings were also hung in white and gold, while the arch under which the re- ceiving party stood was beautifully treated in the same colors, interspersed with Amer- ican flags: Potted plants were placed about in profusion, and altogether the ef- fect was extremely beautiful. A large portion of the Merine Band were on the platform behind a screen of palms and potted plants, and rendered afpro- priate music. The Brilliant Robes, The reception began at 4 o’clock, and lasted until about 6:30. Shortly before 6 o'clock Cardinal Satolli came from Divinity Hall, where he had robed, escorted by Right Rev. J. J. Keane, rector of the uni- versity; Very Rev. Philip J. Garrigan, vice rector; Monsignor McMahoa and a number of visiting dignitaries. They had hardly taken their, places in the bower before the People began to arrive, and for the remain- der. of the afternoon the hall was crowded. A majority of the Catholic clergy of this city attended. These, with the students and the faculties of the university, made 2 picturesque throng. The students wore their caps and gowns for the first time. ‘The professors wore their caps and gowns, which they had previously worn at the ceremony in Baltimore. The monsignori wore their purple gowns, the archbishops their purple vestments and the bishops their gowns. The robes of Rector Keane and Vice Rector Garrigan were expecially haadsome, the former wearing a gown of heavy purple silk with the black velvet collar, and the latter one of black silk with @ purple silk collar and trimmings of the same material. The remainder of the di- vinity faculty wore black silk gowns with black velvet collars. Some of them also wore sashes ind other insignia which ac- company their degrees. The professors of the faculties of McMahon Hall wore the regulation gown end hood, with a gold- tasseled cap. The Receiving Line. To the left of Cardinal Satolli in the re- ceiving line stood Bishop Keane, Marshal A. A. Wilson and Messrs. George Twohy and W. T. Cashman of the university. As the guests approached they were presented to the cardinal by Bishop Keane, who re- ceived their names from the marshal. On the right of the cardinal stood Marquis Sacripanti, the ncble guard, in full uni- form. Further on were Archbishops: Ire- land, Kain, Williams and Ryan, Bishops McFall of Toronto, McGolrick, Cotter and Monsignori Schroeder, McMahon, Doane, Sbarretti and others. ‘These, with the re- ception comm:ttee, composed of Drs. O’Gor- man, Boquilion, Pace, Robinson and Gran- nan, did most of the entertaining. After the reception Cardinal Satolli and the vis- iting dignitaries were entertained at din- ner by Bishop Keane and Dr. Garrigan. jo Some of Those Present.

About a hundred’ members of the Psi Up- silon Association sat down to their annual banquet last evening at Page's. Young men and old mingled together, and college days were talked over, and songs belong- ing exclusively to the Psi U’s were sung. ‘The tables were tastefully decorated with roses and smilax, and the menu was a tempting one. Before sitting down to the banquet, however, officers were elected as fellows: President, Galusha A. Grow, Gamma, 1844; vice president, Dr. E. M. Gallaudet, Beta Beta, 1856; secretary and treasurer, William M. H&tch, Zeta, 1886; executive committee, Major William H. Webster, Be- ta Beta, 1861; D. C. Morrison, Psi, 1859; Ralph W. Lee, Eta, 1887. Senator Hawley was master of cere- monies when the time for talking came, and he introduced the various speakers,who held the interested attention of the ban- queters during their brief, humorous re- marks. Some of those who contributed to this portion of the evening’s enjoyment were Senator Frye, Minister Hatch of Ha- wali, Representative E. B. Mahaney, Rep- resentative Foote, Dr. Gallaudet, Rev. Dr. ispham, ex-Assistant Attorney General Cotton and Rev. Dr. Smedes. psu eens Weather Strips, Cent and a Half a foot. F. Libbey & Co., 6th and N. Y. ave. —Advertisement ——S J.

Grand Opera House.—Tonight Mr. Rob- ert Mantell will be seen in his new play, “My Husband,” which is a society drama in four acts, by Espy Williams. It is said to be a play full of bright dialogue and.| forceful situations, and it will enable Mr. Mantell to be seen in a character different from the line in which he is best known. Irving-Terry.—The sale of seats for the coming engagement of Henry Irving, Miss Ellen Terry and the London Jiyceum Compa- ny at Allen’s Grand Opera House began yes- terday morning. At as early an hour as 4 o’clock on Monday afternoon the tirst man came into line and was joined by others, until at the close of the Grand Opera House performance, some ten or fifteen representatives of purchasers were advised to retire from the lobby into the cold and bitter night outside. At 6 o’clock in the morning ‘he procession went over once again to the opera house, and at 9 o'clock sharp Treasurer Shaw threw up the win- dow of the new box office, and the sale of seats began. For over four hours there was an uninterrupted line of purchasers. P The sate -was ‘very ‘triek and <most ing for a successful engagement. The ab- sence of speculators was a particularly sat- isfactory feature of the sale, since all the purckases of an unusual amount were made in behalf of those who had placed orders with the messenger corps service. The larger amount of personal sales were made to the representatives of the elite of Wash- ington, and in many cases the carriages of distinguished citizens: cama to the opera hheuse and awaited their turn. There were many purchases covering the entire 1ist of plays, and many more for each distinct preduction, while the nattonal government was represented in every department, and the diplomatic corps of every ration se- cured either boxes or seats for nearly every performance of the engagement. The sele will continue each ‘lay until further notice from 9 a.m. until 5 p.m. Minnie Paimer.—_The management of the Lafayette Square Opera House annomices the engagemetnt, on Monday, of ‘“The Sehool Girl,” a comedy opera which has been pro- duced with great success in London and the English provinces, with that vivacious and jovial little comedienne, Minnie Pal- mer, in the title role. This will be Miss Palmer's first appearance in this country in opera, and to say that the announcement Is quite a surprise to her many friends would be putting it quite mildly, but such is the case, and it will be an agreeable surprise to know that she is seen to tar grenter ad® vantage in the part uf “Little Miss Loo,” a mischievous, teasing,yet lovable little maid- en. The company is a large one, number- ing nearly fifty people. ‘The piece is re- splendent throughout with delightful music, Pretty faces and exquisite costumes. The Ice Palace.—The opening of the ice palace at Convention Hall yesterday for the afternoon sessions was fully ‘as suc- cessful as the grand opening Monday night. Between three and four hundred skaters enjoyed the sport, and the ice was every- thing that could be desired. The majority of those who attended yesterday afternoon were ladies, and their privatet equipages lined the street in front of the hall. The same arrangements for comfort and con- venience that prevailed at the opening night were in evidence. The orchestra .is always on hand at every session, ard the afternoons will probably be selected by those who do not feel quite sure of them- selves on the steel runners on account of the crush at night. The hour from 1 to 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon was reserved for ladtes, and a large number took advan- tage of the cpportunity to try the sport for the first time. A competent number of in- structors were on hand, and these attended to all the wants of the skaters.The attrac- tion for tomorrow night is a championship game of hockey between the Queen’s Uni- versity hockey team of Canada and an All- Baltimore team. The former team holds the intercollegiate championship of Canada, and are on a trip through the United States for the purpose of winning fresh laurels here. The Baltimore team will probably be the strongest competitors that they will meet, and this will give added in- terest to the game. The contest will com- mence at 8 o'clock, and will not last more than a half or three-quarters of an hour, so that those who attend will not be kept very long from enjoying the sport them- selves. Although the prices have been raised at the Baltimore rink for the game which occurs there this evening, the usual prices of admission will stand at Conven- tion Hall, and no extra charge whatever will be made for reserved seats. Yvette Guilbert—One of the most re- markable engagements that has ever been played in New York is that of Yvette Guil- bert, who fills the “Olympia” to the doors every night, and this is one of the largest Places of amusement in the United States. Yvette Guilbert simmered down is more of an actress than a singer, and yet her songs are praised to the very highest degree, simply because they are sung in an inim- itable way by a woman who is an artist to the tips of her toes. Her latest interest is settled entirely on her-coming tour, which is short enough, but it must be un- derstood that she herself is the manager of the affair. There is no one who has put up any money, nor who has assumed any responsibility except Yvette Guilbert her- self; she has chosen as her manager Mr. T. D. Marks, but Yvette herself is the re- sponsible party in the affair. She ts re- ceiving no pay from anyone, and is doing this little tour entirely at her own risk. She will give one concert in Washington, at Metzerott Hall, January 20. For her tour she will be supported by some exper- ienced operatic artists, and the program will be made up of regular concert num- bers. Light in their tendency, but of the very best kind of music, and it must understood that Yvette Guilbert herself has chosen the artists for her support and made up the program. Battlefields of the World.—An interesting lecture,entitled “Battlefields of the World,” vas delivered at the Metropglitan M. E. Church last evening by Rev. W. A. Spen- cer, D. D. The speaker was introduced by Representative J. A. Pickler of South Da- kota. Dr. Spencer compared the battles of ancient history with those of modern times; wsing as examples the battles of Marathon and Sedan. He also gave some descrip- ticns of the battles of the civil war. A large audience was present. Isham’s Octoroons.—John W. Isham’s Oc- tcroons will appear at Kernan’s Lyceum Theater next week, presenting a pleasing program. Originality has been the objec- tive point, and it is claimed that those who witness the performance will concede that the effect has been attained. Each act and specialty will be appropriately and richly costumed, and the scenery is a special feature. That the entertainment will excel arything yet in similar attractions is guar- anteed by the names of such well-known artists as Madame Flower, Fred. J. Piper, Hyers sisters, Mr. and Mrs. Tom McIntosh, Mattie Wilkes, Mallory brothers, Tom Brown, Johnson and May. ‘The Blackville Derby” will open the entertainment, and an original opera will close this bright and promising program. “The Blacksmith.”—A remarkable work of art is on exhibition at Veerhoff’s F street gelleries. It is the most celebrated of De- lorme’s masterpieces. ‘The Blacksmith” will appeal to all classes of people, to the uneducated in art as well as to those whose taste has been formed by a careful study of the greatest masterpieces. Above all the picture is true to nature. A blacksmith ‘stands at his forge, one hand on the bel- lows rope, and the other with tweezers ready to lift the metal when sufficiently heated. The smith looks steadily into the red flame, and the glare of the light in the grimy old shop gives his face a glow. Every detail of the blacksmith shop is re- membered by the artist, and the picture is sure to live in the memory of every ane who views it. a Spiritualists’ Association. . Articles amending those filed November 4, 1893, incorporating the National Spir- itualists’ Association of the United States of America have been filed by Harrison D. Barrett, Cora L. V. Richmond, Robert H. Dimmick, Theodore J. Mayer and Milan C. Edson. The amended articles were filed to correct an error in the original articles, which contained an erroneous classification of the association, placing it in class 2, in- stead of class 3. ee For Sale and Partition. A bill in equity has been filed by Attor- neys Campbell Carrington and Irving Will- jfamson for Florida and Wm. A. Pitts against Louisa Thomas and others, for the sale and partition of real estate on L be- tween th and 19th streets, of, the estate of the late Lindsey Muse. ——— Think of It, Butterine Eaters!

The trouble, it was explained, was the result of the celored- man going in. the saloon and getting in a quarrel about a drink ‘of whisky. Judge Kimball, speaking of the use of the officer’s' club, satd that officers ‘should use them only for self protection. . “That's why I used the club last ntght;"* the officer said. The prisoners were fined $5 each. Needed Treatment..>)»».~ Oliver May, am elderly colored man sadly dn need of hospital treatment, was, a pris- oner in court. He had spent the Hight in a Police cell, and when the court.asked if. he did not want to go where he would get gcod treatment, hes frankly :adsnitted::that: he did. “That's what I wanted,” he satd, “and I expected to be sent to the hospital last night instead of being locked up.” For more than fifteen years Oliver has worked at the gas house, and working.in the coal so long has made his complexion a few shades darker than its natural color. Vagrancy and suspicion was the charge ageinst him. He was not held on the charge, but was sent to the hospital. James Pryor, a colored man with but one leg, and his friends, Charles Marshall and. Joseph Marshall, were,in line because they had engaged in a game of crap.on Christ- mas day. “I went down in Brown’s court,” said Charlie Marshall, “‘and:got in trouble.” “It wes your own faule,” said the court. “Well, I wasn’t in the game.” ‘But you saw it?” “Anybody is likely to see a game," said Marshall. When Judge Kimball had fined the men $10 or thirty days, Policeman Kelly spoke @ good word for the cripple. “I don’t like to send a cripple down on the farm,” said the court, “but then they should not do wrong.” < Pryor was released on his personal boris. to appear for sentence. His companions went down. “Do you know the man?” the court asked Policeman Barry when John Kelly was called. “I know him well,” answered. theiofficer, “for I have:arrested: him. a number of times.” He explained that ‘Kelly's arrest ‘last night was the result of his begging a boy for 10 cents. : “Why can’t you keep out trouble?” Judge Kimball wanted to know. 5 5 “Because the police don’t give me any he responded. “I've been out only seven days, and worked four of them.” “Behave yourself and the police will not trouble you.” 5 He was sent down for fifteen days. Other Cases. Robert Sweeney and Lula Jackson, a col- ored couple from Freeman’s alley, appear- ed on a charge of disorderly conduct in a house, an offense not covered by the law. Mr. Pugh ascertained the facts from Po- lceman J. H. Gibson, and promptly ended the prosecution. Lula, it appeared, had screamed because her friend had assaulted her with her own weapon, a broom, and the officer saw no reason why she should give vent to her feelings in this way. Annie Crawford has been out of the farm for fully, two weeks, a record of which she 1s justly proud, but today ended her free- dom, and. she found herself in the proces- sicn. “I found her in a. vacant night,” said the officer, “: as I did, I locked her up.” “Fifteen days.”” Policeman Holmes~ complained against Jed West, colored, for disorderly conduct, and then gave him such a good name that the court released him. - Henry Taylor’s ownership of a mule was questioned and the prosecution failed to establish its claim. “Colored people usually own mules,” said Lawyer Peyton, -“but Henry does not own this animal.” It was claimed that the animal had been improperly treated, but as the owner was not In court-no one was held.

To the Editor of The Evening Star: There are said to be seventy American citizens whose aggregate weaith amounts to six hundred miHions of dollars, and there are a thousand more whose aggregate wealth amounts to a billion. Now is the time for these people to come forward and show their patriotism by extending to the government .the aid and r which it needs in its financial affairs. They could do so without. losing a-cent of their accumu- lated millions, and they would never miss the necessary investments’ and@* subserip- tions which they may make for the pur- pose.

We cam show that-we are a thoroughly self-supperting people, instead of proclaiming to the. world that we are on the eve of bankruptcy,.and putting our- selves at the mercy #f foreign capitalists and money changers.+Our men of wealth can make the measuse of a popular loan a great success and set the: wheels of pros- Perity- in motion again. z BENJAMIN PATTON.

Young and Cuthbert Speiden, assistant Mbrarians; Miss Emily Given, pianist; Miss Flora Nichols, assistant pianist. This school is the .mother of Baptist schools in the District of Columbia, and, under the new administration of its affairs, it will most likely go forward to larger suc- cesses than ever before. Some of the special features to he introduced are the establish- ment of a large orchestra and Sunday school choir, to be assisted by a concert grand piano and a powerful philharmonic organ, all under the direction of Mr. Pércy S. Foster; the holding of socials and stereop- ticon lectures for the Sunday. school only, the institution of teachers’ prayer meetings each Sabbath morning at 9: o'clock, the establishment of an office in one of the class rooms for the use of the superintendents at all times, and the regular business meet- ings of the corps of officers at least once a month.. This school now numbers about 400 scholars, and fully expects to double its membership during the coming year. Rev. Charles A. Stakely, D. D., is the pastor.

Action Taken to Help in Their Si - The meeting last might of the Federa- tion of Labor was one of the most inter- esting that has been held in a long time. Over forty organizations were represent- ed. The trouble between Gambrinus As- sembly and the brewers was taken up, the contract committee having requested that the federation indorse the action of D. A., No. 66, in placing the brewers of Wash- ington on the unfair list. Secretary Sefboid of Gambrinus Assembly was admitted for the purpose of making a statement of the status of the trouble at the present time. Among other things he said that the members of the assembly want to make a contract that will not only benefit the bosses, but the men. At the beginning of the difficulty, Mr. Seibold said, the drivers were willing te join the as- sembly, but ..the bosses influenced them against doing so, and now the members of the assembly want to force them in. Mr. John Rugger, secretary of the Bal- timore Brewers’ Union, who was also pres- ent, advised that all-the breweries in the District of Columbia should be placed on the u1fair list, maintaining that as all were in the combination axainst the brewery workers all should be placed in the same categcry; so‘far as organized-labor is con- cerned. . =: - A debate followed, in which many, dele- gates participated, and at times the dis- cussion was qufte éxciting. At the conclu- ‘ston of the speaking all the local brewer- "tes, ard Portner’s brewery, Alexandria, were placed on the unfair list.. The an- nouncement of the vote was followed by loud applause. The legislative committee reported that they had_called to‘see Senator Lodge of Massachusetts, and at their recuest Mr. Nodze had eansented to take charge of the bilis of the federation, entitled the a: “assignment” and contract acts. pre committee which was instructed to repare a protest against the proposed $7,500,000 District loan submitted thelr re- port, which was adopted and ordered print- ed, and presented to the proper commit- tees in Congress. A communication was received from the Building Trades Council, asking that their organization be recognized by the federa- tion and that the committees of the for- mer be recognized in joint action with the several committees of the federation in the future. The recuest was granted and a resolution adopted giying the proper au- thority to the committees of the federa- tion to-do so. The delegates from the Paper Hangers’ Association ‘requested that the federation shalt sclicit the active co-operation of real estate dealers in publiching a bulletin an- nouncing what houses offered for rent have been ‘built’ or repaired by union la- bor—the Jabor men on their part agreeing to use thelr influence to secure desirable tenants for such dealers. The request was laid over for one week. . conee Sat es ae Funeral of Gustav. Barthel. The remains of Gustav Barthel, the Jeweler, who died Sunday, were yesterday interred at Prospect Hill cemetery.
