THE EVENING STAR, MONDAY, MARCH 23, 1896—-TWELVE PAGES. SUBURBAN NEWS ANACOSTIA. A fire which broke out in Anacostia be- tween 7 and 8 o'clock Saturday evening caused a great excitement both in the town and throughout the southeastern section of Washington, and attracted hundreds of Persons to the scene. The flames, which Were caused by the explosion of a barrel of paint, were first discovered bursting from a frame shed in the rear of the store of Mr. J. F. Feddon, on Hargison street, and for a time it was feared that the greater part of the business portion of Ana- costia would be destroyed. The prompt ac- tion of Policeman Robey, who was on duty at the time, and who turned in an alarm to the fire department, doubtless prevented More disastrous results. In response to the alarm engines $3 and 8 from the city were driven io the fire, but before their arrival the flames had spread to a shed owned and occupied by Mr. J. B. Redd, and this was also parily destroyed. Several horses in .the sheds were rescued with great diffi- culty, but two carriages owned by Mr. Fed- don were destroyed. Mr. Feddon also lost & number of stoves and other articles, and his loss was estimated at $700, which is partly covered by insurance. The sheds belonged to Mr. J. J. Appich, and his loss will reach several hundreds of dollars, also partly insured. Mr. Redd’s loss was also considerable, and his insurance was said to be small. The flames were under con- trol in about an hour. During the excite- ment one of the members of the Wiez21 family, living opposite the fire, threw a Pocket book containing $11 out of a window. This was not recovered. The Stables in the rear of the Anacostia sub- station were also somewhat damaged. The police authorities of the Anacostia substation have been requested to look out for and arrest a colored man, of whom a description has been furnished them by Jasper Plemmer of Hillsdaie, who, the lat- ter says, knocked him down and robbed him of $6 a few evenings ago in Washing- ton. According to Plummer’s account the man told him that he could get Plummer a Position on one of the steamboat lines run- ning out of Washington, provided the lat- ter could raise $6 for a uniform. Plummer secured the money, and the two men start- ed for the city. After reaching a secluded =pot, Plummer says, the stranger knocked him down and robbed him of the money. Mrs. M. M.

This shows a gratifying fmcrease over prior years, and the pastor tees the re-election of Alphonso Hart and A. H. Kinnear for a term of three years, and William H. and Henry K. Simpson for a term of one year. The membership of the church has increased during the year, many families having moved here and united with the church. The members of the St. Paul's M.

To simplify matters, a notice has been posted in the office of the Capital Traction Company, at the power house, that after April 1 none of these tickets will be received for fare, but will be redeemed at face value by the Goatpcene the Kensington company to make a like ae of their tickets.

The subject for the evening’s debate was “Resolved, That the works of art are more beautiful than the works of nature.” The judges, who were Miss Helen Hill and Messrs. Alton Donald- son and T. A. Mitchell, decided the debate in favor of the affirmative. Among those present at the meeting were Miss Annie Bentley, Miss Blanche Hill, Miss Annie Mitchell, Miss Laura Bentley, Miss Helen Hill,Miss Minn‘e Mitchell,Mr.Harry Murphy, Mr. Alton Donaldson, Mr. James R.

Frank Robey, John Federline, W. H. Dorsey, Jas. Brown- ing and T. B. Whitehead. Rev. Dr. E. D. Huntley, who was ap- pointed at the Baltimore Methodist confer- ence last week as pastor of Centenary M. BE. Church here, to succeed Rev. Dr. A. E. Gib- son, took charge yesterday: He made a favorable impression. Messrs. B. F. Crabbs, T. M. Baldwin, A. M. Bond and William M. Potter, a commit- tee of the Law and Order Society, were in Annapolis Friday. The committee appeared before the Prince George’s delegation and protested against the bill introduced by Delegate Holmes to permit the submission of the liquor question to the voters of Laurel district. One bill to submit the liquor ques- tion to the voters of Laurel district passed the house, but met defeat in the senate. Another has, however, been introduced in the house of delegates, and has reached the second reading. It is probable that this bill, too, will meet defeat in the senate if it should pass the house. Petitions to the leg- islature for and against the passage of the bill are now being prepared. Those oppased to the passage of the bill seem to have at present the majority of signatures. The committee mentioned above will, it is under- stood, go to Annapolis this week again to protest against the passage of the bill and Present the petitions. This question las aroused great interest here, and the fate of the bill is anxiously awaited. A committee, which will probably be head- ed by Mayor Phelps, will wait on the Prince George's delegation at Annapolis tomorrow and urge the passage by the legislature, be- fore its adjournment on the 0th of this month, of the Laurel bills introduced by Delegate Schooley and mentioned hereto- fiupertance to the town, and th irpamsege le portance to the town, and their much desired. There is a rumor current that a third municipal ticket will be put into the field on the day of the town election, April: 6.
