President Sullivan In a neat Speech welcomed the company and Mr. Casey of Georgetown College returned thanks in behalf of the invited guests tor the genial manner in which they were treated, and praised the good work that is being done by the Catholic Knights in the District. Thirty new members pre- sented their names for enrollment. The committee in charge of the smoker, and who deserve credit for the manner in which they did their work, were Frank ©'Meara, ©. L.

The deaths reported te the health department numbered 90, as against 101 in the week before, the death rate accordingly falling from 18.70 to 16.66. In the same period last year the rate was 2414. No special class of diseases was alent. The deaths from consumption ed from 23 to 7, and chose from brain disorders from 15 to 10, while those of the kidneys rcse from 6 to 10. Of the zymotic affections there were 3 fatal cases of diphtheria, 4 of typhoid fever and 1 of scarlet fever. Diarrheal complaints were in abeyance. Of diphtheria there were 13 new cases, were relleved from quarantine, still placarded, and of scarlet fever 4 new cases were reported, 4 cards were taken down and 10 premises left in isolation. ‘A review of the meteorological conditions showed a mean temperature of 56 degrees, a barometric pressure of 20.95, and mean relative humidity of .62. Fith four cloudy days the weather was mild, winds 6 miles per hour, and rainfall of 0.59 of an inch Highest temperature of 7% degrees on the 2a, falling to 36 degrees on the 7th, rang- ing 37 degrees in 5 days.

Oyster, 900 Pa. ave.—Ad. pet ee The Last Oyster Roast. Although it was announced that the last oyster roast of the season at Marshall Hall ‘would be given last Sunday, the weather ‘was so bad on that day that the boat did not go down, and it has been decided by the management of the Hall to give one next Sunday. This will be good news to those who have been patronizing these af- fairs, as well as those who have not had a chance this season to participate in them. Oysters are always enjoyable, but when eaten under the conditions which govern such feasts at the Hall there is nothing to express the enjoyment which epicureans experience. The Macalester will make the regular trips, and, although the last of the Season, no facility for comfort and con- venience will he slighted. -ICAUSED...BY ILL HEALTH Beason for the Suicide of a Well-Known Rallet Through Brain Ended the Life of Mr. B, W. Fraster—Happy Family Life. Mr. B. W. Frazier, the proprietor of the Hotel Wellington, committed suicide yes- terday about noon by shooting himself through the head. As stated in yesterday’s Star, the body was found shortly after 1 o'clock in a lit- tle clump of trees between the Athletic Park on the Conduit road and the north end of the Chain bridge. It was discovered by three ladies who were walking along the path which runs from the station on the electric road to the bridge. The body was lying on its back with a revolver on the ground nearby. A wound above the right ear, from which blood had fiown, told the story of the suicide. A telephone message was at once sent to the Georgetown police station and the patrol wagon started off to the scene of the occurrence. All that was known at the station was that a body had been found, buc nothing was then known of the identity of the dead man or the cause of death. It was after 3 o'clock when the wagon returned to the station with the bedy. Then it was learned from papers about his person that the unfortunate man was Mr. Frazier. Among them was a let- ter addressed to Mrs. Frazier, at her home, 1533 P street. He was about forty-two years of age. He was well dressed and wore a light overcoat and patent leather boots. Even in death the face was calm and peaceful, the face of a kind and cour- teous man. Death must have been instant: neous, for the muzzle of the revolver was pressed against the right side of the head and the ball had gone completely through, coming out in almost the same place on the left side. Mr. Frazier was one of the best-known hotel men in Washington, and had an in- terest in the Raleigh and the Ebbitt House. He was formerly connected with the latter but left it to take charge of the Portland Flats when they were built. He was for a time the manager of the Raleigh. On ac- count of bad health he resigned about a year ago, and was not actively employed until he secured control of the Hotel Page, on 15th street, in September, and made va- rious tmprovements and opened it as the Wellingtcn. Yesterday morning he left the hotel os- tensibly to take a walk. The last seen of him alive was about two hours later, when he spoke to a colored girl on the Conduit road and asked tke shortest way to the Chain bridge. He appeared to be nervous at the time, and acted in rather an excited manner. It 1s difficult to account for Mr. Frazier’s act. He was happily married, his family consisting, however, only of his wife and sister. So far as his friends know, his financial affairs were in a satisfactory con- dition. He was looked upon as well-to-do, and was extremely popular with all who knew him. He was a Mason and a member of other secret societies, as well as of the Blue Ridge Rod and Gun Club. He had not been in the best of health for a couple of years, and his condition preyed upon his mind to such an extent that his friends re- cently became alarmed about him. He was of a nervous temperament, and in his business life was worried all the time. In this connection a curious thing occurred yesterday. Two, of his friends happened to meet on the street. Have you seen Frazier lately?” ‘Not for a coyple of weeks. He's been acting queer lately.” > “J would not be surprised if he should kill himself some time."” Mr. Frazier was lying dead on the ground at the time. Last evening the coroner investigated the case and gave a certificate in accordance with the facts, and later the body was re- moved to the P street residence.

A large delegation, consisting of the health officer and a select committee of the council of Cleveland, Ohio, visited the health officer today. The object of their visit was to inform themselves upon the garbage situation at the capital, and incl- dentally learn something of the manner col- lections are made and the terms of the con- tract under which the work is done. The Gelegation consisted of Dr. J. L. Hess, health officer; Dr. D. B. Steuer, J. G. W. Coles, chairman of the council, and Coun- cilmen J. T. Palmer, Chas. I. Dailey, Walter I. Thompson and Frank Emerson. This com- mittee has visited New York, Philadelphia, Bridgeport, Conn., and Boston. After in- specting the Brown plant here, the com- mittee will visit Adan! Ga. One of the councilmen, in speaking of their visit around the country, sald that the reduc- tion plant in Bridgeport, Conn, was an ex- cellent system, and greatly pleased the del- egation. While up to this time nothing has been decided, it 1s believed that a reduction plant will be recommended for Cleveland. ——ee Fish in the Market. Fish in the market this morning present- el an unsually attractive appearance, and many of them seemed as if they were really allve and had just been taken from a hook or seine. White fish from the lakes weighing from eight to ten pounds each, and looking as fresh as if they had just been taken from the water, were almost as attractive as the black bass from the Po- temac, as well as those from North Caro- lina. These large white fish have the fia- vor of shad, but they have not the same number of bones. They are especially fine for baking or broiling, but not for boiling, as in the water they fall to pieces. Pike are unusually fine this season, and many of them are being caught with hook and line in the pond near Quantico. Live bait is used to catch them. From Maine the dealers are receiving boxes of smelt. These small fish make an excellent dish for luncheon, and are being used quite exten- sively for this purpose. Black bass are also plentiful, and some good catches have been made in the river about here by the sundown haulers of seine. Market men discourage these violations of law as much as possible, although they sometimes han- dle their stock. ——— The McKinley League. Mr. Lewis Willis, president of the Mc- Kinley League, writes to ‘The Star in refer- ence to the statements made in Tuesday's Star, when some members of the organiza- tion figured in the Police Court. Mr. Willis says. that the total membership of the or- ganization as shown by the roll is 346, and not 7, as stated in the Police Court. There was, he said, no meeting of the organiza- tion on the night mentioned in The Star article, and none had been called. There is, he said, no such officer as financial sec- retary of the league. “Skeeter” alias George Johnson is in no way, he says, connected with the league, nor is James W. Poe a member. ————— Women’s $2.85 and $2.50 Shoes, Button and lace, 10 styles. Hoover & Snyder, 1211 F st.—Advt. ———__ Bimetallism and Illiteracy. To the Editor of The Evening Star: The industrious compiler of statistics of the votes cest at the recent election, which appeared in Morday’s Star, has evidently given more industry than thought to his subject. He infers that because the states in which the greatest amount of illiteracy is found gave their electoral votes to bi- metallism, therefore illiteracy voted for bi- metallism. It is beyond dispute, however, that the flliterates of these states voted unanimously for McKinley. Indeed, if we subtract the illiterate votes, that is to say the negro votes, from those cast for the gold standard candidate he would be large- ly in the popular minority. This, too, may be said of every republican President since the war. Not one of them ever secured a majority of the white voters of the coun- try. Except in the case of Greeley, which went by default, the white majority of the people of the United States has never been less than a million, and often much more, against the republican candidate. So much for flliteracy and popular majorities. MENTOR. RELIGIOUS EDUCATION. American Society to Hold a Series of Conferences, ‘The American Society of Religious Educa- tion has decided to hold a new series of conferences this winter and during the coming spring. These meetings, which will be known as the “regents’ sessions,’ are to be held one each in November, Decem- ber, January, February, March, April and May, and are to be open to all members and to their invited friends, each member by order of the regents being authorized to introduce two visitors.

Antonio Masini, 2 Member of the Met- ropolitan Company, Expires. Antonio Masini, a valuable employe of the Metropolitan Opera Ccmpany, which is playing a week's engagement at the Colum- bia Theater, died very suldenly on F street near the corner of 6th yesterday after- con about 4:20 o'clock. Policeman Bren- nan was standing on the corner when he saw the man fall to the sidewalk. The policeman hurried to his side, but the man seemed dying then. A telephone Message was sent to the Emergency Hos- pital, but when the ambulance reached the spot the surgeon pronounced Masini dead. The body was removed to the morgue on New Jersey avenue, and the dead man’s friends were communicated with. It was evident that he had died from natural causes, but the coroner was notified and decided to hold an investigation. Masini was forty-five years of age, and was employed as property man for the opera company. All the stage property was locked up, and the keys were in Masin!'s pocket. It required an order from the cor- oner to obtain possession of the keys, and this was soon obtained, and there was no delay in the evening performance as a result of Masini’s sudden death. Members of the company have taken charge of the body, and will see to the funeral arrange- ments. as GRAND OFFICERS CHOSEN. Result of the Election of the Masonic Grand Lodge.

Columbia Theater—Not in many years has there been given a more enjoyable per- formance of Gounod's “Faust” than its rep- resentation by the Grau Metropolitan Eng- lish Opera Company at the new Columbia Theater last night. The audience was thoroughly responsive to the good work of the performers, and applause was liberal, while some numbers, notably the recltative and aria by Valentine in the second act, the flower song by Siebel n the third act, the soldiers’ chorus and Siebel’s song in the fourth act, and the final trio in the last act were obliged to be repeated. The last- named number excited more enthusiasm than has been witnessed in a Washington theater in a long time. This was due to the splendid dramatic singing of Mme. Ja- nuschowsky, who was ably supported by Payne Clarke and Riccardo Ricci. ‘The cast was unusually fine, Mme. Januschowsky singing Marguerite In the most dramatl- cally artistic manner, and acting the part thoroughly effectively. Lizzie Macnichol makes un ideal Siebel, her beautiful face and figure peculiarly fitting her for the boy lover of the heroine, and her rich and pow- erful voice giving to the musical score a Deauty of tone that satisfies the ear in every respect. Payne Clarke's Faust was an intelligent interpretation of one of the most difficult parts that falls to the lot of operatic tenors, and Riccardo Riccl’s big but rather unwieldy bass voice was compe. tent to properly give the music of Mephis- topheles. He proved himself also a good actor. Wm. Mertens made an excellent Valentine, singing and acting with spirit and fine effect. The chorus did great work, which was fully appreciated by the au: Gience, and the same may be sald of the large ‘orchestra, over which Conductor Mendorf wields’ the baton. There will be no performance tonight, as the theater will be occupied by the Bos? ton Symphony Orchestra, but tomorrow night “Carmen” will be given, with Mine. Januschowsky in the title role, which, by the way, she created at the Royal Opera House in Vienna, where she sung for five years, going from there to Paris, where she duplicated her Vienna success’ Satur day afternoon “The Bohemian Girl” will be repeated, with Mary Helen Howe as Arhne, and Saturday night the season will close with the “Cavalleria Rusticana™ fad the fourth act of “Rigoletto.” ee e Overlook Inn. pen all the year round—a fine driv beautiful views.—Advt. ayerand ——— Mrs. Bucher’s Musicale.

The execu- live committee reported that the jollifica- tion meeting to celebrate the election of McKinley and Hobart would be held December 3, so that members of Congress Would be here to participate. President Simon Wolf said it would be expected that all republican organizations in the District would join in the meeting, and believed that every individual republican in Wash- irgton should aid in making it the big- gest affair of the kind ever held in the city. It was reported that the McKinley and Hobart Club, the McKinley and Hobart Marching Club, the West Wash- ington Club, the Maryland Association, the East Washington Invincibles and the Kendall Green Deaf Mute Republi- cans had signified their purpose to appoint delegates to attend the joint committee meeting to be held shortly. Great interest was evinced in a proposi- tion advanced by Mr. P. W. Sheckells in the form of a resolution creating a spe- clal committee to consider the establish- ment of a District League of Republican Clubs. In explaining the plan Mr. Sheck- ells said no club in the proposed league should lose its identity. All were to con- tinue in active operation. The league should be composed of two or more repre- sentatives from each club, and what these representatives agreed upon would have the more influerice in questions of {mport- ance arising in which all the clubs were concerned. The distribution of literature could be under their charge, thus econo- mizing in this regard, and matters to be urged before the administration could be better handled. After some discussion the matter was referred to the executive com- mitte for report. It was decided that the National Union Club should be continued as a permanent organization, and the executive commit- lee was instructed to take steps for its incorporation. Ex-Goy. Hart reported on the valuable campaign work accomplished by the club during the campaign, and ad- dresses were made by Dr. A. P. Fardon, President Arthur Stabler of the Maryland Association, Col. C. P. Lincoln and others. peas eames CONGREGATIONAL CO} FI ERENCE. Annual Fall Meeting of the Wash- ington Body.

Applications Made to the Police and Socteties. The few cool days lately had the effect of bringing out a number of persons to ask the authorities for assistance. During the three days this week nearly a score of applicants have called at the office of the superintendent of charities, where the chief clerk, F. W. Barnaclo, is in charge. Be- sides these, a number of applications have been made to the police. Most of the ap- plicants want fuel, while some few have asked for provisions and clothing. The authorities do not anticipate so great a demand this winter as there was last year, unless the weather is particularly severe. Very little money is being expended now, and no assistance whatever is given until the police have made an investigation of the applications and the applicants. Act- ing Superintendent of Charities Barnaclo said today that all cases will have to be investigated by the police before assistance is given. He intends to prevent importors getting the lion's share of the money set apart for this purpose, if possible, and thinks that the police investigation of each case will have the effect of the most de- serving ones being assisted. Chief Clerk Sylvester of the police department is also engaged in the work of looking after the needy, but until the weather is much more severe than it is at present he will expend very little money. —>—__ Children’s Good Shoes Are our stronghold—$1 to $2.
