THE EVENING STAR, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY, 1 SPECIAL NOTICES. 0D HAS ORDAINED MB TO PREACH HIS DI- vine will and to answer infidels. Christian brethren, Jet us pause for a moment and think upon the matter; do all of you mean to say that you preach God's divine will: you that call your- Selves preachers?

It Left New York Monday Night With Arms nnd Reinforcements. Another Cuban expedition, including ebout 100 of the survivors of the Hawkins expedition, sailed from New York Monday right. It was made up of Cubans from Phila- delphia, New York and Boston. The steamer Englewood, hailing from Nova Scotla, is tke vessel. She carries to the insurgents 100,000 rounds of cartridges and 2,000 stands of arms. Last week a requisition was made for 100 men to go In the vessel. Word was sent to the seven Juntas in the United States, and it is said that not a single man called for declined to go. From Philadelphia seven mien went. With the departure of these men from Philadelphia not more than haif of the Cubans who wer: formerly employed in THE POULTRY SHOW Opened Auspiciously With a Large Attendance, SUNSHINE MAKES THE BIRDS HAPPY es A Complete and Thoroughly Rep-} resentative Exhibition. A BEAUTIFUL SIGHT Heralded from daybreak by the shrill crowing of a regiment of cocks and the myriad cackling of their many harems, the first auhual show of the National Poultry Association opened this morning in Center Market Hall. The thousands of fowls were as lively and spirited as if they had not had a night of it. And they did have a night of it, for under the glare of the electric lights a large force of workmen toiled all night to get all the arrangements suliably ac- complished, and there was little sleep or cigar factories in that city remain, over 200 in all having departed. gg The First Payment Made. The Secretary of the Navy has made the first payment on the steel twin-screw seagoing torpedo boat No. 6, being built by the Herreshoff Company of Bristol, R. I. It amounted to $24.900. The contract for this vessel is dated October 19 last and calls for its completion within ten months. Fayments are to be made in five install- nen! The fact that the vessel is one- completed is accepted as a good indi- afth cation that she will be completed on time. The first work on a ship is always the most difficult. Application has also been made to the Nevy Department for the first payment bre sSunboat No. 10, under construction by the Crescent Shipbuilding Compan: at Elizabeth, N.

With hundreds of coops to be put in place and as many hun- dreds of fowls to classify and place in the coops, there was work enough for all. The members of the association in force, under the lead of Superintendent T. Farrar Rockham, gave themselves un- sparingly to their task, and it is safe to say no similar enterprise opened with the preliminames so completely consummated and so few chips left to tell of the endless amount of work that must necessarily pre- cede such an exhibition. A Complete Show. There are 2,500 cages and over 5,000 birds on exhibition. In mary are pens of from four to eight birds. Every class is well represented. To the veteran poultry show- man there seems to be little to desire. Not so large as the New York and Boston shows, the Washington uffair is probably better in point of completeness and sym- White Indlan Game. metry. Every feature is well consum- mated and the whole show reflects the highest credit on the association and its officers, and also upon the hundreds of ex- hibitors who have sent their choicest birds from all parts of the country, and some from most ant points. When this afternoon the judges began their work they found a collection of fowls as well classified as it is possible te ar- = in eight double rows down et of tha splendid Center Market e the various classes. The judges, Messrs. Sharpe Butterfield, F. J. Marshall, J. N. Bickwell, Henry 8. Ball, Theodore Hewes, D. M. Owen and Black Hamburg. John H. Kuhn, divided the work in order to expedite the awards, it being understood that in cases of narrow.doubt all judges were to have voice in the decision. _ The Water Fow!.

It is a business which will hardly be overdone no matter how many go into it. ‘There are some places better than others for it, and, as in everything else, some people are better adapted to it than many others. It is all a matter of skill and work. Some succeed and many fall. And at the same time I must say from my own experience there is every reason for success and not ny for failure.” mine general appearance of the hall as one enters {s unusually pleasing. The entire hall has been tastefully draped with the national colors, the light is excellent, and there is space enough for a large number of people to get about without jostling and crowding. The first thing to impress the visitor Is, of course, the terrific din of the birds, which continues incessantly all the time. At every tick of the clock there are not less than half a. hundred roosters crowing with all the force and emphasis characteristic of them on their native heath. This chorus of the chanticleer is broken by the steady “honk honk” of the geese and the twitter and cackle of the hundreds of guineas, bantams and pigeons. The Cat Show. The cat show fs placed at the south end of the hall. There are about a hundred in all, revresenting every well-known variety cf this cherished houschold pet. As a rule, they do not make as good a show as the poultry. Most of them He down in their cages, and show very little spirit or inter- est in the throng of admirers continually passing. There are some ‘eautiful tigers, Jacobin. many large and valuable Angoras, a few tortoise shells and a number of specimens of Maltese and Manx. The children are greatly delighted by them, and there are scores of them about the cages continually, calling, “Kitty! kitty!’ to the indifferent felines within. The specialties are numerous. Magnifi- cent bronze turkeys, wild turkeys, white Hollands and blues, splendid Embien geese, huge white and black swan, Pekin and Rouen ducks, rabbits, guinea pigs and beau- tiful specimens of peafowl. ARCHITECT OF THE, LIBRARY. The Question as to Whom Credit is Due for the: Design. The beard of directors of the American Institute of Architects,’ at their meeting in New York, beginning, today, will have brought before them:a professional contro- versy of considerable interest in Washing- ton. The matter will be brought up by the following paper, adopted by the Wash- ington Chapter and forwarded to the board of directors: “We, members of the Washington Chap- ter American Institute of Architects, wish, both as a body and individuals, to protest against certain statements published in Harper's Weekly of December 28, 1895, the Utica Globe of January 18,1896, and other papers of recent date, in which Ed- ward P. Casey, son of General T. L. Casey, is put prominently forward as the architect of the new Congressional Library building in this city. We are familiar with this building from the beginning to the present time, and feel that no one can, with pro- priety or honesty, be entitled to the credit as architect of this building except J. L. Smithmeyer and Paul J. Pelz. They have devoted the best years of their lives, from 1873 to 1893, in perfecting the plan and designating the exterfor, and interior of this building. Official documents proye that the work was commerced by act of April 15, 1883, under the direction of Smithmeyer and Pelz, architects. In 1888 General T. L. Casey, father of the alleged architect, was placed in charge, with directions to com- plete the building according to the draw- ings of Messrs. Smithmeyer and Pelz, omit- ting four of the stack rooms in the interior courts. When Paul J. Pelz was discharged, March 29, 1892, Gen. T. L. Casey, U. S. A., wrote him that ‘as you have entirely com- pleted the designs for the architectural characteristics and features of the build- ing for the Library of Congress, both of the exterior and interior, * * * I have to state that your services will be no longer required by the government.’ “The alleged arckitect, Edward P. Casey, was not employed in any capacity on the building before this date. We desire, in justice to two members of our profes- sion, that the press of the country will publish this protest, and we further recom- mefd the American Institute of Architects to take official action in reference to the matter. “ROBERT STEAD, President. “GLENN BROWN, Secretary.” ae THE CHASE PROPERTY. Edgewood Saved by Friends of the Family. Recently there was placed on record a deed by which the Washington Loan and Trust Company transferred to C. A. Spof- ford of New York the property known as Edgewood, the home for many years of the late Chief Justice Chase. ‘The consideration named was $46,954, which was the amount of the trust on the property under which it was purchased at public sale about a year ago by the Washington Loan and Trust Company, the lender of the money. When it was known that, this property was to be sold the friends of Mrs. Kate Chase, the daughter of the late chief justice, who had made her home there, desired to make some effort to recover the property for the benefit of Mrs. Chase. When the matter was broached to the trist company it was decided to give Mrs. Chase a year in order to determine whether it would be possible for her to recover the property. The place bas been held since then under this‘agree- ment. The year expired or the Ist of this month, and on the 3d instant, sufficient money having been subscribed by the friends of Mrs. Chase, the property was purchased and transferred to Mr. Spofferd, who is stated to be the private secretary of Mr. Henry Villard of’ New York. It ts the intention of those who haye advanced the money to hold the!property in trust for the benefit of Mrs. Chase, and when a good opportunity is presented it will be sold, and the proceeds administered by the trustees for the use of Mrs. Chase. World's Fair Board of Control. The world’s fair board of control, which is the executive body of the Columbian commission, is in session here. transacting various odds and ends of business relating to the Chicago exposition that yet reman undisposed of. One of the board’s dutles is to officially promulgate the award of the 23,000 to 25,000 medals and diplomas that Were awarded to exhibitors at the fair. The cases for the medals, have been finish- ed and some kind of a tubular device will be. prepared for the safe transmission of the diplomas. It is expected that every- thing will be ready in less than a month. A committee has been appointed to urge upon: Congress the propriety of having the report of Director General Davis submitted to the board before it is printed. COUNTRY REAL ESTATE.

It is generally con- ceded that the republican party as a na- tional organization sprang into being at the convention held in Pittsburg February 29, 1856. This convention was the direct re. sult of the work of the old republican club of this city. Among the members of the Pittsburg convention were Mr. A. M. Clapp and Mr. Lewis Clephane of this city, and they are now, so far as Mr. Clapp knows, the only living members of the Pittsburg convention, which was attended by so many ee aesteetectontent a % ae who afterward became illustrious in the | 2 political annals of the country. < It was fitting, therefore, that the propo- 5 sition to celebrate the fortieth birthday of | ‘& the party should have originated here. | Owing to the commendation expressed at | ¥ the idea of the Union Republican Club b; many prominent papers throughout the country, celebrations of a similar character will be held in other cities. Added to this influence, Chairman Carter called the at- tention of Gen. McAlpine, president of the esonel publican League Association, called upon the to observe the occasion. fee nae enenes The committee of arrangements having the matter in charge for the Union Repub- lican Club has nearly perfected the pre- liminaries, and Chairman Clapp and Sec- retary B. F. Crawshaw are busy attending to details. Among the well-known republi- cans who have consented to make ad- dresses are Senator Hawley, Senator Cul- lom, Representative Boutelle, Representa- tive Brum, Representative Cousins, Senator Perkins, Representative Towne and Repre- sentative Sherman of New York. Mr. Clapp will preside. The invocation will be deliv- ered by Rev. George H. Corey. Resolutions suitable to the occasion are being prepared, and will be offered by a committee, con- sisting of Mr. Lewis J. Clephane, Col. Wm. A. Cook and Mr. Thomas J. Lasier. There will be an attractive musical program. Invitations will be shortly sent out to the republican Senators and members of Con- Sress, governors of states and a large num- ber of prominent republicans throughout the country. Mr. Clapp, chairman of the committee of arrangements, has announced the following as the committee on press’ Harry P. Godwin, chairman; Gen. H. V. Boynton, John M. Carson, Scott C. Bona, BE. J.
