Requiem mass was sung by a quartet from the choir of St. Patrick’s Church, consisting of Miss Blanche Mattingly, Mme. Maina, Mr. Will- jam D. MacFarland and Mr. Bernard Ryan, with Miss-Louisa Boone as organist. AS an offertory Miss Mattingly sang “O Pie Jesu,” and later Mme. Maina rendered “Nearer, My God, to Thee.” Father Ryan made extended remarks in eulogy of the deceased, and as the body was carried from the church the quartet sang effectively “Rest, Spirit, Rest.” The attendarce was very large, the church being crowded, and a large throng aiso accompanied the body to the cemetery. ‘The floral offerings were many and beau- tiful. ed In Memory of Frederick Douglass.

Harlan, John F. Hurst, David J. Brewer, Alex. Mackay-Smith, John W. Fos- ter, 8. W. Woodward and W. B. Gurley. The affair was in the nature of a recep- cities of the east. the officers of the Sunday school conven- tion meet the leading business and influen- tial men, acquaint them with the objects and needs of Sunday school work and to secure their co-operation in furthering the plans outlined vy the association. As early as 6 o'clock the guests bega number sufficiently large to overflow one of the parlors of the hotel. absence of form and reserve, for everybody to those with whom they did not happen te be acquainted. In the throng were jus- States, prominent professional men, well- known educators, prominent divinés and leading business men. E Afte> an hcur passed in a highly enjoy- the banquet hall, where a horsesnoe-shaped table had been prepared in an unusually Leautiful manner. Potted plants and cut flowers had been used for decorative pur- pcses in bountiful profusion, and the scene Was quite ideal, Before the guests were seated Mr. S. W. Woodward, at the head of the table, Invited Rev. Dr. Teunis Hamlin to lead in prayer, after which everybody Cevoted himself to discussing the elaborate menu that was served. For over two hours attention was paid to the feast for the palate, and then followed a feast for the intellect. The presiding officer, Mr. Wood- ward, rapped for order, and’ after men- tioning the great increase and improvem« that has occurred in the Sunday shools of America from an international stand- point, he introduced Mr. B. F. Jacobs of Chicago, president of the world’s national Sunday ‘school convention, the author of the international lesson sys:em in use in # majority of the schools in the United States and Canada, and, sald Mr. Wood- ward, undoubtedly the firs: Sunday school man in the world. Mr. Jacobs’ Speech. Mr.’ Jacobs was greeted with applause. He said that he esteemed it a great privi- lege and honor to speak of the importance of Sunday school work before the leading men of Washington. He declared that the present is an important time in the history of the world. In looking around men are impressed; Christian men more than others. He went on to say that the Sunday schools in the world should be increased, and cited that the Protestant Sunday school schoiars of the United States now number 11,000, 000,-representing 40,000,000 of the popu! tion of the United. States. “Just think what a progressive move- n the Sunday school work would continued Mr. Jacobs. “Ordinary things will not do for such times as these. By persistent effort we have rapidly in- creased the number of Sunday — school : nd it is_a great thing for 11,- sons to be publicly studying the word of God—the Sunday school 1s the one place where such study fs carried on. There ought to be an effort to reach every family in the District of Columbia with the Gospel.” Mr. bs, continuing, said in one city in Illinois, under a system of house ‘visita- tion, 000 visits-have been made in a sin- gle day by the workers. Of the 18,000,000 children and youths in the United States, he said, §,000,000 are in Sunday schools, but thcre are 10,000,000 whom nobody has ‘ever Teached. After stating that the people of Washington are setting an example to the whole country Mr. Jacobs discussed the colored side of the question, announe- ing that there are 1,000,000 colored chil- dren in the United States who attend neither day nor Sunday school. The claim has been made, he said, that tne chureh denominations ‘reach these people, but the speaker declared that all the de- nominations fn this city will never reach everybody. in Washington. “We are not trying to interfere with the denominations,” explained Mr. Jacobs. “I would not give a row of tacks for a man who had nothing to believe in and who did not believe in that. We need more field workers and $30,000 per annum is 1 for the work. Just think of it. thousand dollars for 18,000,000 peo: sixth of a cent per annum for sav- h person. I think they are worth j it. hink over the cause and help it, ! gentlemen: we ask your cordial sympathy nd support.” + Bible Will Stand. Mr. Woodward then introduced Mr. John W. Foster as a distinguished citizen of the United States, who has done as much for the substantial good of the American people in the last quarter of a century as eny other man. Among other things Mr. Foster referred to the recent celebration here in honor of the birthday of Tom Paine, and added that the bible is not going to be destroyed. Mr. Foster expressed his belief in teach- ing the Bible to the rising generation and for the waning generation to follow it. Mr. William Keynolds, the field secre- tary of the international executive com- mittee, was the next speaker. In opening he remarked that Jesus Christ was the greatest being ever on earth. He was a teacher, and therefore Mr. Reynolds cons! ered teaching the greatest profession pos- sible. He desired to impress upon. all Christians the importance of Sunday schoo] work, declaring that the future of the country depends upon the moral and _re- ligious education of the youth. Mr. Rey- nolds recited a number of amusing anec- dotes concerning the old style of raising children, after which he went on to say that the Sunday schools today are not What they should be, because of lack of knowledge on the part of teachers and superintendents. “The poorest work being done in %he world is that for God,” he said. “We want your co-operation, for we mean to reach every boy and girl in the country. The church—the hope of the land—de- pends upon the Christian education of the youth.’ Rev. Dr. B. L. Whitman, president of Columbian University, who was next call- ed upon, made an intellectual and eloquent address of some length,-during which he stated that true Bible study is constructive and that the true poise of life lies within a moral development. He also declared that we live in an age of questioning, and he expressed his hearty approval of the work being done by the International Sunday School Union. Rev.Dr. Wallace Radcliffe of the New York Avenue Presbyterian Church, when Iintro- duced, stated that he was glad of the op- | Portunity to pay his respects to such great gsen as Mr. Jacobs and Mr. Reynolds, and ‘the urged that learned teachers and workers be placed in the Sunday school field. Rev. Dr. S.. H. Greene of Calvary Baptist Church was the last speaker. He amused the gathering greatly by relating an inci- dent of @ boy who assisted at an earth- quake. He then went on to say that he Was profoundly stirred by the addresses that had been made, for he thought that no work was more important than that which had been under discussion. Thousands of young men and young women and older men and older women of this city, he said, are waiting to come into the Sunday schools if some one will gc after them. In the opinion of Dr. Greene, the children must be saved. During his remarks, particularly when telling of a pathetic incident that came under his notice in New York, tears flowed from the eyes of several of the listeners. Mr. Peroy F.

King Carnival held high revel at National Rifles’ armory last evening. The occasion was the forty-fourth annual masquerade ball of the Washington Saengerbund. It was a decided success in every sense of the word. The attendance was large, the cos- tumes rich and varied and the pleasure un- confined. Mirth and merriment reigned supreme and care and trouble were sue- cessfully banished. The grand march be- San at # o'clock. It was a unique proces- sion of funmakers, and afforded lots of in- nocent enjoyment to the spectators. Al- though there were many handsome cos+ tumes, representing kings, queens, cour tiers and ladies in waiting, the majority of the characters assumed were of a grotesque or comic sort, intended to caricature per- Sols and events of the day. As is usually th® case, the female contingent displayed the most originality in their tmpersona- tious, The advanced woman was repre- sented in most approved style, and the Transvaal incident received ‘intelligent treatment. One group that attracted ¢ eral attention was composed of five sum- mer girls, dresed in regulation seaside at- ure. They wore abbreviated skirts and carried tin buckets filled with sea shells. There were also girls galore in -bloomera and men’s apparel, and a number of men assumed various types of the gentler sex. It was a most conglomerate gathering of beauty and grotesqueness, and the judges had a difficult task in selecting those en- titled to the prizes. The signal for unmasking was given at 11 o'clock, and provoked a general excla- mation of surprise. No one was who you thought he or she was, and everybody turned out to be somebody else. Awarded Prizes. Mr. F. Claudy, president of the society, awarded the prizes, and proved fully equal to the situation, kissing all the successful jadies and patting his male brethren on the back. The colored camp meeting group ; Won the first prize of §25. Thé characters were taken by Edward Evans, J. F. Lot- tus, P. H. Loftus, Miss Lizzie Loftus, Frank Rupertus, “John Horner, Misses Maud and Ella Ehishlager, John’ Kessel, John Reese, Miss Martha’ Rupertus and Lulu Rupertus. The second group prize of $15 went to a coterie of young ladies representing the new Saengerbund Hall. They were Mra. Klinge, the Misses Klinge, Miss Mamie Vol- land, Mrs. Escherich, Mrs. Brandes, Miss Sehleyer, Mrs. Bocharding and Mrs. Wal- ter. A «croup representing a coloted excursion on the steamer Mary Washington took the third prize of $10. It consisted of P. F. Downey, George F. Keegan, George King, Herman Friedlander, Harry Fleischmann, Frank Harper, M. P. Green, Gordon Phil: lips, Miss Agnes Booth, Miss Carrie Brown- ley, Miss Smith, Miss Wimsatt and Miss Carrie Jones, Miss Blandine Lutz won the first ladies? prize of $i0 in the character of the “Com- ing Man.” The second ladies’ prize for a similar amount was awarded Miss Anna Rhyner for her impersonation of the “Weather Bureau.” Prizes of § were awarded Miss Lena Ehrmantraut, as black-faced “Sunshine of Paradise “Ali Abe Cohen, who enacted a German stu- dent “After the Ball,” and Otto Birchard- ing and H. Keul, who were fantastically garbed as President Kruger and his better half of the Transvaal republic. The Commiitees. Much of the success of the affair is due to the well-directed efforts of the foliowing committeemen: President Frank Claudy, A. Jorss, John Waldman, Henry Leon- hardt, A.

An Eastern Cross-Town Rond. , To the Editor of The Evening Star: The present management of the Wash- ington and Georgetown Raflroad Company —or, I should say, the Capital Traction Company—has a habit of surprising our people by its progress and enterprise. I wish to take the Iberty and call attention to a vacuum which they*can perhaps fill etter than any of the roads now operat- ing. It is this: When you are at the navy and have business with a man living, t 7th and H streets northeast, you can do just one of two things—either walk or write him a letter. The first is not con- venient to 2 person who is afflicted with corns or whose time is worth something. The latter means more or less delay. Why, then, would it not be a good idea for the corporation referred to to extend its line along Sth street as far north as Florida avenue, then going west, along the Boun- ary until it connects with the 7th end with the U street lines? I believe it would pay—if not now, surely in the near future, Without in any manner desiring to advise Mr. Dunlop how to conduct his business, I submit this suggestion for what it may be worth, AUGUST DONATR. > Representative Baker Loses.
