A number of Washingtonians, compris- irs more business men than any other ci a a are considering meeting here at a on the election the holding of a early date to take of McKinley and Hobart. While such a course has not been customary in the past, those who favor a celebration now declare that the on conditions following the campaign will be of such a beneficial character to the countgy at large and to the national capital in rerticular that the event that brougat them about should be observed in some substantial and public manner. The meeting will probably be held in Convention Hall, and the preliminaries are expected to be taken in hand immediately. Flooring, $1.50 Per 100 Feet.

ALEXANDRIA AFFAIRS < Slowly. Condition of King Street—Local Notes of General Interest to Reale _ dents and Taxpayers. The election and hopes from doubtful states have been the talk of the town ever sirce the election, but “it is all over now,” and the Bryan followers have lost all hope, though they take it manfully, and express strong hopes for 1900, when, prominent democrats here say, Bryan With his free silver banner will again be their leader. The bulletins of The Star posted at the ccrner of King and Washington streets at- tracted a great deal of attention, but the followers of the Chicago platform finding very little comfort in them, read them and left with a “grunt.” The republicans had several large bon- fires last night in ‘honor of McKinley's election, and several enthusiastic speeches were made. A Lumber of small boys had a bonfire at the corner of Prince and Pitt streets to celebrate the election of Mr. John F. Rixey, the democratic candidate for Congress from this, the eighth, district. Mr. Rixey, who is very popular with all parties, received a handsome majority. Condition of King Street. King street is in a horrible condition for many squares, owing to the dirt which had accumulated with the laying of the sewer having been rained on night before last and yesterday, and many of the crossings are almost impassable, the mud in many places being more than shoe deep. It has been many weeks since it was sald that the sewer would be “completed and all the rub- bish cleaned up in a few days,” but as yet there are apparently no signs of anything but the actual completion of thé laying of the sewer. Somebody is neglecting a duty imposed upon him, but who it is cannot be learned. . Pushed From 2 Box. Charlie, the little eight-year-old son of Mrs. Josephine Licyd, while playing at the corner of Fairfax and Prince streets yes- terday afternoon met with a painful aecci- dent. He was standing on a box when a colored companion pushed him to the ground. The little fellow screamed lustily, and when friends went to his assistance it was found that one of his legs was broken in two places, and he was other- wise badly hurt. He was taken to his home, where he received medical attention. Need a New Fire Engine. The city council meets Tuesday night next, when several important matters will, it is thought, be brought up, among which will be the purchase of a new steam fire engine for the city fire department, the need of which has been shown several times of late, more particularly in the re- cent fire at the Alexandria Fertilizer and Chemical Company’s works, when at one time there was no engine in service. Police Court. Mayor Thompson this morning disposed of the following cases in police court: Abe Taylor, colored; charge, drunk and disorderly conduct; fined $5. Frank Carroll, William Skelton and Will- jam Triplett, colored; charge, drunk and throwing stones; fined $5 each. Robert Haywood; charge, drunk and dis- orderly; fined $5. Nobie Brooks, colored; charge, maiming Charles Lloyd; continued. Caleb Thompson, colored; charge, steal- ing beans from Frederick Schuler; fined $. Meeting Postponed. The regular meeting of the city school board, which was to have been heid last night, was postponed on account of the death of the wife of Mr. K. Kemper, super- intendent of public schools. Houses Quarantined. A “scarlet fever” sign has been placed on the house of Mr. Beavers, 519 Duke street, and a diphtheria sign on the house of Mr. Smith, No. 126 North Fayette street, scarlet fever and diphtheria having again appeared in the city. No other cases Lave been reported. Athletic Sports et High School. Saturday will be “athletic day” at the Episcopal High School near this city. The boys have been in training since the open- ing of the session, and the sports, it is said, will be betier than usual, Brevitien. A “mission” will be conducted at Olivet Church, near Franconia, commencing next Sunday night, and continuing throughout the week, by Rev. H. G. Kloman, assisted by Rev. J. J. Clofton. The “quarterly meeting’ of the Free Methodist Church began today, and will continue until Sunday. The new dial of the town clock to replace the one blown out by the cyclone will be put in position Monday. The revival services in the M. P. Church were well attended. The first Reinacker lecture will be given at the Theological Seminary November 10. The regular monthly meeting of the Co- lumbia Fire Company was held last night. Routine business was transacted. it is said that Chairman Crupper of the republican city committee has decided not to contest the election in this city. In order to repair several gas mains, the gas was turned off from the city during the morning. Miss Janie Moore of Little Rock, Ark., is the guest of Miss Bessy Lee. ——— Specia! sale.

The annual meeting of the Washington board of trade will be held on the evening of Monday, November 9, at 7:30 o'clock, in the hall of the Builders’ Exchange, 719 13th street.

Lafayette Square pera House.—“Tove on Crutches” was the bill at the Lafayette Square Opera House last night. The play was Mr. Daly's own pleasing adaptation from the German, and_it was presented with the same pleasing effect that has been’ @ feature of, the presefit “engagement of the Daly. Company.. Although “Love on| Crutches” has not been presented here for some little time, yet. there were a great R.any in the audience who recalled its good Points and made comparisons with the older school, which were not always un- favorable to the members of the present eompany, There were only two of th original ‘cast on last night.‘ They were Miss Rehan as Annis Austin, and Mrs. Gilbert as Mrs. Quattles. Of course, Miss Rehan’s work was enjoyable, and the dif- ference in time between this and the last Production was in no way noticeable, Mr. Charles Richman and Mr. Herbert Gre: ham were again brought into favor through their work as the husband, and the reporter, respectively, but Mr. Sydney Her- bert and Mr. Clarke were not as effective as usual in their roles, the Dr. Quattles of the latter suffering in comparison with the work of James Lewis, who last gave the part here. Tonight the bill will be “As You Like It,” with Miss Rehan, of course, as Rosalind, Mr. Richman as Or- lando, Mr. Clarke as Jacques and Mr. Gres- ham as Touchstone. Calvary Baptist Church._The musical and literary entertainment of the Vaugha class of Calvary Baptist Church, which takes place every year, is looked upon as one of the-annual musical institutions of the city’s season. It will occur this even- ing at the Caivary Baptist Church, corner 8th and H streets, and the lst of taient which has been engaged prom- ises some excellent features. Among those who will appear are Miss Alice Judson, so- Prano; Miss Ella Knight, contralto; Miss Helen Calhoun, reader; Miss Pauline Ise- mann, violinist; Mr. Frank Gebest, pian- ist: Dr. Frank Swartout, cornetist; Mr. David Bangs, reader; Mr. H. D. Macfar- land, tenor; Mr. John Nolan, basso, and the Madrids, Messrs. Holmes, Judson, Gal- leher and Yundt. The Fanciulli Testimonial.—A rehearsal was held this afternoon of the three bands and the grand chorus, which is to take part in the Fanciulli testimonial, to be given at Convention Hall, Wednesday even- ing, November 11. The results justified all the expectations of those who have the affair in charge in a musical way, and there is no doubt of the full success of the concert in point of patronage. It is sel- dom that the people of the national capi- tal have such a musical treat offered. In addition to the United States Marine Band, the Sixth Cavalry Band from Fort Myer, which has already become a great favor- ite with the people, and the Fourth Artil- lery Band, which has been heard a number of times at concerts under favorable com- tment, will endeavor to give in conjunction the finest music that has ever been heard here. In the operatic numbers, such as selections from “Les Huguenots,” “Faust,” “William Tell,” and “Il Trovatore,” the bands will be assisted by a finely trained chorus of five hundred voices, composed of the best s!ngers of the city and drilled to a high zoint of efficiency and accuracy. In aééition to all this a number of soloists of the first rank in their respective lines will be heard, and altogether the concert will be the musical event of the season. The sale of seats is now going on at Sanders & Stayman’s music store, on F street, and there is every prospect for a crowded house. ——__ Go to Masonic Temple Flower Store for finest chrysanthemums.—Advt. ———ge Another new lot of $2.85 and $2.50 wo- men’s snoes. “Quality guaranteed.” Hoov- er & Snyder, 1211 F st.—Advt. = SS Feed Store on Fire. A colored man who was walking through Freeman’s alley last night about 10 o'clock noticed a bright light in J. P. V. Ritter's feed store, which fronts on 7th street, and upen investigation he learned that the stock of hay and straw was burning. The man Icst no time running and notifying the nearest policeman, and soon afterward the fire department responded to a call. When the firemen arrived the whole store was ablaze, but when several streams of water were turned upon the burning mass the bright light was soon put out. What was not burned was thoroughly soaked with water. The prompt work of the firemen prevented a disastrous conflagration, for they succeeded in preventing the spread- ing of the flames to other property. Mem- bers of Mr. Ritter’s family were asleep in apartments over the, store at the time the fire started, but they were in no danger, for the flames did not go beyond the ground fioor. The loss is estimated at about $2,000 and is Insured, but there was no insurance on the building, which was not seriously damaged. A fire similar to the mysterious fire of last night destroyed the contents of the same store about two years ago. ———__ Free Floral Show for Ten Days —at Gude & Bro., 1224-26 F st.—Advt. a2 SS “A Yard of Chrysanthemums” free. page ¥—Advt.

This was satisfactory to the Prince George’s authorities and the hunts- men were released. On the way back to Washington the one who gaye the check concelved the brilliant idea of stopping its payment and upon reaching here he noti- fied his bank accordingly. When the check was returned unpaid the Prince. George's people were naturally angry, and the re- sult will be that~bench warrants will be issued for the arrest of the four hunters.

Wagers of the Freak and Financial Sort Being Generally Paid. The queer angles taken by American humor are shown in the payment of elec- tion wagers, now in progress, in which the losers are compelled to do all sorts of ri- diculous and frequently humiliating things. While it is a question whether a man who sits in a wheelbarrow and 1s propelled along & public street is not making as much a spectacle of himself as the man who pushes the vehicle along, such scenes are now frequent. Several bets of this character on the recent election were paid yesterday and last night. Wm. A. Hancock wheeled Wm. Ryan from 8th street to the Treasury Depart- ment and return by way of the avenue last night. Philip R. Terry pushed Robert Maxwell ten blocks in a wheelbarrow and then walked the same distance in a barrel be- cause he thought Bryan was going to win. William 8. Espuia wheeled William Pros- peri from 8th and E streets southeast to the navy yard gaie and return, and Wm. Pelcher hired a street plano and played it in front of every saloon on the avenue from the treasury to the Peace monument rather than forfeit $25 to Charles J. Kla- sier. : Money bets are being paid without ques- tion to the holders of the McKinley end of the wagers, and it fs estimated that over $50,000 will’ change hands in this city be- fore tomorrow night. aa SS Men's double-soled, calf-lined shoes re- duced to $3.50.
