Flags and Bunt Profysely Used on Efe venue. _ Although the decoration of business houses and private residences is not as general as has marked certain other gath- erings ir the past, the city certainly pre- sents a picturesque appearance as part of ‘the greeting to the visiting veterans of the | Union Legion. To the eye all sections of ‘Washington are gay today. Thousands of yards of bunting and flags without num- || ber have been pressed into service, and the display is not other than creditable. Some of the attempts are decidedly elaborate, while others are modest, yet tasteful. Eliminating all other considerations, the decorations are amply sufficient to clearly demonstrate that something out of the ordinary is on the tapis. Along the line of march of the parade this, afternoon the decorations are par- ticularly in evidence. Near the point of rendezvous, 19th street and Pennsylvania avenue, Nelson H. Duvall, grocer, and Whiteside & Walton, druggists, have ar- ranged flags and bunting about the fronts of their establishments in honor of the veterans. Large American flags occupy the windows of Thompson's drug store, op- posite the Treasury Department. From that point to 12th street and Pennsylvania avenue decorations are lacking. Deitz’s restaurant, near the corner of 12th street, has not been overlooked, while The Even- ing Star newspaper buildings constitute the foundation for a mass of flags, bunt- ing, festoons, rosettes and other vari-col- ored materials, artistically arranged. Har- vey’s restaurant, at 11th street and Penn- sylvania avenue, shows no stint of decora- tions, while Brentano’s and Kernan’s Thea- ter ‘are very much in the swim. The es- tablishments of the E. Morrison Pazer Company, H. O. Towles and B. F. Guy are also properly dressed in honor of the oc- casion. Cannon’s restaurant is profusely decorated, as is the Times building. The Columbia Phonograph Company has beautified their place of business, and the Crawford Shoe Company has done likewise. Perhaps the most elaborate display along the line of march is that at the headquar- ters of Encampment No. 69, Union Veteran Legion, 908-and 910 Pennsylvania avenue. In additicn to large flags protruding from every window of the double building, there is Suspended above the doorway an tm- mense shield with the inscription in incan- descent electric lights ‘1861-1865. U. V. 1.” The restaurants of Mr. Young and the Mc- Innis Brothers display the full quota of flags and bunting, and the same ts true of Perry's establishment at 9th street and Pennsylvania avenue. A blank then occurs urtil the east side of 7th street is reached. Small flags peep from all the windows of the Metroplitan Hotel and the American House. Robert Cohen's shoe store and the furnishirg establishment of Joseph Auer- bach are properly decorated. George W. Driver's restaurant stands forth conspicu- ovsly. The Howard House and the restau- rants of Thomas L. Selby and Edward J. Quinn are far from the rear of the proces- sion. The St. James Hotel looks very ga: and a generous supply of bunting 1s at- LOCAL MENTION. THEY'RE CLEANED RIGH' when we clean your carpets. No “halt- way” werk about our process.

THE GUILTY AND INNOCENT Early Morning Procession Today in the Court. ne aeheet Vagrants Sent Down and Séme Dis- charged—Cases of Disorder and - Small Larceny, = ~ * “Charles Saunders!” called the clerk in Judge Kimball's court this morning;. and a colored boy, who seemed to be in a hurry, came out of the dock almost as fast as a bicycle scorcher coming down Capitol Hill. “Stop there,” called the clerk, who re- alized that Charlie might follew the ex- ample of the Charles county fugittve. Bailiff Kendig called a halt, and he was arraigned on a charge of having partici- pated in an unlawful assembly. on 21st street Sunday. “I'm not guilty,” was the boy’s answer. “This boy was with a crowd of others, playing crap,” said Policeman Cooney, “and when he saw me coming toward him he jumped over the other players and got away. But I was acquainted with the young man. and I got a warrant for him. Judge, your honor, I've seen so much of this crap playing and have warned the beys till I'm tired, and I thought I'd arrest them.” “You did perfectly right,” the court told him. “This crap playing onthe. street should be stopped, for much of the crime committed is the result of just this kind of business.” “Mr. Cooney’s wrong,” said the prisoner. “He didn't see me in @ game of crap.” “But he says he did,” the court teld him, id he knows you.” “But, judge, I was in my own house,” the boy said, ‘and couldn’t have been at both places at the same time." z a “Doesn't the officer know you?” “I don't know.” “Indeed, he does know it,” the police- man sald. “I've known him going on three years.” “Ten dollars or thirty days.” In the toils was a good-looking gnd neat- ly-dressed young man, who gave his name as Frank Everett. 2 He was arraigned upon a charge of va- grancy and suspicion, the information al- leging that he was found on 15th street begging. “I'm guilty of the charge,” said the young tan, who seemed very much humiliated at being in such a gathering. Policeman Edelin had seen the young mac and a companion yesterday asking for something to eat, and when he started to- ward them they broke and ran. “I caught this young man,” said the of- fl “and the other one escaped.” ‘Well, young man,” said Judge Kimball, what have you to say about this charge?" “The last employment I had was in the Academy of Music.—William Barry in “The Rising Generation.” Bijou Theater.—‘‘Peck’s Bad Boy.” Grand Opera House.—“‘A Pair of Jacks.” Kernan’s Lyceum Theater—The South Before the Wa: Lafayette Square Opera House.—May Ir- win in “The Widow Jones.” New National Theater.—Hoyt’s “A Tem- perance Town.” — EXCURSIONS TOMORROW.

Meeting Last Night of the Lakeland Democratic Clab. The Lakeland fib held an enthustastic meeting last night. Speeches were made by A. L. Redstone, E. M. Blake, chairman of the legislative committee of the Federa- tion of Labor; Michael J. Bishop, grand worthy foreman of the Knights of Labor of the District, and Henry R. Anthony, member of the executive committee of the city of Reading, Pa., who 1s here to at- tend the encampment of the Union Veteran Le of which he is assistant adjutant generai. Messrs.

The court took his personal bonds and directed him to one of the institutions where he might get bed and board until he gets his money from home. Did Not Settle. _ When John Chapman had indulged in a stovepipe of beer yesterday his appetite was greater than his purse, and wher he had devcured a quantity of meat and bread at William Ash's street hotel his failure to settle the bill caused trouble. 5 “The bill was 5 cents,” said Ash, “and he wouldn't pay it.” ‘ “Here's the money now,” said Lawyer Moss, tossing him a nickel. “No, sir,” said the witness, who had an idea that his acceptance of the money would compromise the case. “Then you won't take it?” No, sir.” “That’s a legal tender, your honor,” re- marked the lawyer. “But it has nothing to do with the case,” remarked the judge. Chapman's explanation showed that he had been disorderly, and the court fined him $5 or fifteen days on the farm. When John Jenkins stood with a party of friends in Madison alley near his home last night Policeman Stang saw what he thought was an opportunity to give the “move on’ order, and he gave.tt. Jenkins was near his own home, and when the crowd dispersed he went and seated himself on Fis doorstep. “He didn’t go in his house,” was the substance of the policeman’s complaint. “There was no reason why he should have gone in,” the court said. “If he sep- arated from the crowd and went to his own doorstep that was certainly enough.” The prisoner was discharged. When Moses Winters is at home he Is in a house in Van street. Not satisfied with remaining in the house, he went out on the street yesterday, and on his way home he found it a difficult task to keep on the decorated are Whitney's cider establish- ment, Luckett’s restaurant, the Columbia bicycle establishment and Fritz Reuter’s hotel and restaurant. Proceeding toward the Peace monument, decorations are noticed on several other establishments. The cigar store of W. k. Benham & Co., the Philadelphia House, J. F. Connor's restaurant, the Dexter Steam Laundry and George J. Mueller's candy factory look decidedly inviting. A larg banner is suspended across the avenue from the Globe building and the Dexter laundry. The other houses decorated are Charles F. McLaughlin’s restaurant, the Hotel Vendome, the Hotel Hanover, Mades’ Hotel and Bun Srien’s restaurant and hotel. Many other buildings along the line of riarch display flags and decorations of a minor nature. From the Local Point of View. To the Editor of The Evening Star: The Star has given to the people of Wash- ington and the adjoining parts of Mary- land and Virginia some timely warnings as to what would be the local effects of popocratic success at the poils. You have yawn a vivid picture of business depres- sion, the contemplation of which almost paralyzes the great pocket nerve of our people, the most sensitive nerve in the human body. The mere thought of re- turning to the spoils system ts enough to set this nerve to quivering with anxiety. I heard Bryan's speech delivered here on the 1%th of September. When he explained his views on civil service I saw the cold chills run over the Interstate Democratic Association, an organization composed prin- cipally of office holders. Once the civil service barrier is torn down, the silver men now in the departments would fare no better than republicans. Those who have fattened at the public crib would have to make way for the faithful who have hungered ard thirsted outside of the breastworks. On the other hand, no one doubts that democrats under civil service rules would be perfectly safe in case of republican success. Government employes and the business people of Washington ave everythiug to lose and nothing to gain by Bryan's election. When the tariff was the issue it made little difference to this city which party won. Now, it is a personal matter, not only to office holders, but to every one who is interested in the welfare of this city. The spoils system means the removal of thousands from of- fice, leaving behind them a long trall of debts and foreclosures on real estate. As you say, our city would be a “camp.” A popocratic administration would boom the business of the baggage express men Langston and Jones, has petitioned for di- verce from Mary Minor. They were mar- ried at Gordonsville, Va., September 1%, 1s78, and Mr. Minor charged that his wife deserted him in December, 1891. ee Special Rates Fort Monroe, New- port News, Norfolk and Portsmouth, Va.

KOLB 17a AMUSEMENTS. “The Sunshine of Paradise Alley.”—That long-sought theatrical prize, a second “Old Homestead”—“The Sunshine of Paradise Alley”—will have its first presentation in Washington at the Lafayette Square Opera House on Monday evening next. If the authors, Denman Thompson and George W. Ryer, had any misgivings about the re- ception of their work by the public, think- ing, perhaps, that dealing, as it does, with New York life, it might not interest the people as well as their earlier work on New England life, as depicted in the “Old Home- stead,” they were dispelled by the extraor- dinary patronage accorded the piece in New York and Boston, in which cities the Piece enjoyed long runs. There is a spar- Kling stream of pure and simple humor running right through the piece that could not do otherwise than win the hearts of all. There is no one who will not be touch- ed by the motherly interest that the Widow McNally takes in the different characters in the piay, and by the ministrations of Sunshine, the heroine of the play, who comforts the sick, helps the struggling, and reproves the erring and wayward. It is noteworthy that the play. has received the sanction of the New York and Boston pul- pit and Sunday schools because of its puri- ty and wholesomeness. Besides the bril- liant cast, the ear will be enchanted with excellent music seldom heard in any other entertainment. Seats for this engagement go on sale tomorrow morning, and there will be no advance in prices. “A Romance of Coon Hollow."—The story of “A Romance of Coon Hollow,” which will come to the Grand Opera House next week, is strong and pretty, dealing with incidents in the lives of typical southern- ers, and the characters are neatly sketched with all of those felicitous little touches that made “Blue Jeans” famous. The strength of “Coon Hollow” lies in its hw menity. The dramatic climaxes which close the first two acts are intensely strong, and the comedy is rich and amus- ing. A cotton compress at work gives a sensational effect, and the acme of stage realism 1s reached in the race between the steamboats Robert E. Lee and Natchez, on the Mississippt river. A unique electrical effect makes one of the scenes particularly strong. Besides a complete metropolitan ccmpani ‘oon Hollow” carries a plania- tion brass band, two quartets and a troupe of male and fenmale colored buck and wing dancers. “The Bunch of Keys.”"—The best of Hoyt's farce comedies, “The Bunch of Keys,” will be at the Bijou Family Theater next week, with daily matinees. During the past theatrical recess, Manager Both- ner has had the play overhauled, new songs, dances and situations have been in- trcduced, and some changes and additicns been made in the company. There is no change in the star, Ada Bothner, and her Teddy will be the same frolicsome little liup we have seen so often and loved so well, but there are cthers, and quite a lot of them; new girls, pretty girls, dainty girls and dancing girls. “Weber's Olympia.”—The attraction at ernan’s Lyceum Theater next week will be the latest burlesque sensation, “Weber's Olympia.” This enterprise has scored a de- cided hit in every city in which it has ap- peared. The scenic embellishments are wonderful, and the company is one of the best ever organized. The opening burletta, entitled, “Right Mr. Wrong,” is an up-to- date satire, and will serve to introduce the full strength of the company. The olio which fallows is an exceptionally good one, and includes Miss Lettle Meridith, late of Tempkins’ Black Crock Company (Miss Meridith is said to be the most perfectly formed woman on the American stage); Gallagher and West, in comedy hits of the day; Leslie and Tenley, the Celtic wits; Delmore and Lee, refined sketch artist Whitney brothers, expert musical artist: Evans and Huffman, singers end dancer: Miss Abbie Lameraux, the peerless bur lesque star, and the Hoope sisters, the lit- tle electric sparks. The performante con- cludes with the original burlesque, entitled, “Fads and Fancies,” in which will be in- troduced the sensational John Good dance. —_-. Union Veterans’ Meeting. The McKinléy Union Veterans’ Patriotic League held a rousing meeting last night at Grand Army Hall. Many speeches were made by the visiting Union Veteran Legion comrades. There was prolonged cheering when the visitors from Indiana estimated the McKinley majority in that state at not less than 30,000, and the New Jersey veter- ans promised 20,000. Speeches were made by J.C. S. Bergur, Morris Husband and Rev. Dr. Talmage. ‘William T. Crump, ex- steward of the White House, who served in the same company with Maj. McKinley, related some anecdotes when the major was a private soldier. W. P. Croniger re- cited “The Old Flag,” and was loudly ap- plauded. ‘The Virginia Republican Association met last night at their headquarters, 923 F street northwest. Thirty new members were initiated. The executive and cam- paign committee reported 300 indigent voters on the roll who were in need of meney to go home to vote, and that they had corresponded with all the congressional candidates, the state and congressional committees, calling their attention to the need of the association for funds to carry on campaign work, but had received no sponse.

Martin, editor of the Journal of the Knights of Labor, closed yesterday a conference they have held for several days over several cases before the national board, Involving the derelictions of various assemblies, among which, it is said, a Washington assembly is involved. Speaking of the political outlook from the standpoint of the labor interest, Mr. Mar- tin said: “We received a large number of reports from all over the country from as- semblles and others, and they were very encouraging. From our information, I be- eve Mr. Bryan will receive the electoral votes of Indiana, Illinois, Ohio, Michigan and Minnesota. The labor element in those states is solid for Mr. Bryan. Worthy Mas- ter Foreman Sovereign, who has been on the stump in the west, has written us that the chances for carrying Ohio and Illincis are excellent, and that he believes they will give Mr. Bryan a large majozity. He wrote that he had never seen the laboring men such a unit as they are for Mr. Bryan in those states.” Mr. Martin said that November 1 Mr. McGuire and himself would make the cus- tomary annual inspectéon of the books of the national officers for the purpose of sub- mitting a report at the annual meeting at Rochester, November 10.
