Last night between 6 and 7 o'clock Miss Rosa Buhler, a young lady who lives at the house of Ferdinand Ehrhardt's family, No. 1407 North Capitol street, had an ex- citing and painful experience with 4 col- ored highwayman. The young lady is em- ployed as a dressmaker at Mrs. Rosa Korn’s establishment, No. 1440 N street northwest, and was on her way home when she was attacked. The unpleasant experi- ence happened just after she had crossed 3d street going east on P street. At that corner she heard the footsteps of a man, looking around, she saw a nicely d colorel man. She had passed the spot hundreds of times before and not been molested, and the sight of sed man caused her no alarm. heard the man’s footstops sy, but the good ap- pr ed dispelled all © was proceeding toward home © get out of the snow storm. y she heard the footsteps of the < t d her, und an instant ater he bh r satchel, in which > nd a p t book money.

Further Discussion by Star Readers of the Commissioners’ Order. . Charles Williams, writing to The Star, says: “I have been somewhat amused at the various communications that have been printed lately relative to the recent order of the Commissioners regarding the news- boys. One would think the last expiring liberty of an oppressed and down-trodden people was to be taken away, from the excited manner of some of the writers; while, on the other hand, one would ex- pect Belzebub and all his hosts were to be turned loose upon us were the news- boys allowed to continue the crying of the newspapers on Sunday. It seems to me to be a very simple question, and, without regard to the various arguments brought up by the Secular League vs. the church, there is no good reason why the order should not stand. There is no desire cr attempt to stop the selling of papers, and the fact of their not betng allowed to fill the city with their cries will not material- ly affect tke amount of their sales, “I am a workingman and have oiten been Sreatly annoyed by the unnecessary yelis of the rewsvoys on Sunday morning, and it seems that workingmen have some rights, which even the ‘daintily dressed women of Washington’ should respect. If they cannot put their heads out of doors to look for a newsboy it could easily be ordered to be left, and thus save them that trouble. It is on the ground that the noise is unnecessary that I object. This our national capital should be made a model city in every way. I trust the Com- missioners will not only stand by the order issued, but will do away with the hawking upon the street of ali articles, not oniy Sunday, but every other day.” Another correspondent, assuming the name “Fair Play,” says: “I am not op- posed to the newsboys. I buy my daily Star of a bright little fellow Instead of having it delivered by carrier, although that would be cheaper. But I don’t think that the newsboy, any more than the huckster, the banana man or the organ grinder, ought to interfere with people's Sunday-morning rest. If those persons who have been so strenuously advocating the crying of Sunday papers could Mve on this square awhile they would have rea- son to change thelr tune and take up the refrain, ‘O give us a rest,’ for the clamor- ous calls of the Sunday newsboys at fre- quent Intervals are enough to effectually destroy the repose of any who are not of the ‘seven-cleepers’ variety. It may be all Very nice for people who live in quiet parts of the city to write letters in favor of the Sunday-morning racket, for they are not disturbed by !t. But to be in the midst of it is something very different. “Therc are many people who do not read Sunday papers and many others who have them regularly delivered by carriers. Those persons who wish to buy papers Sunday mornings ought to get them with- out having the public peace disturbed for their accommodation. The people who wish a quiet morning one day in the week certainly have some rights in the matter that ought to be respected—yes, and pro- tected. Shall one man’s Sunday-morning rest be destroyed because some other man wants a paper and is too lazy to go out after it and so must have newsboys come along at intervals yelling and disturbims the quiet of the whole neighborhood? To say that the order suppressing the crying of Sunday papers is in the interest of the news stands is the verlest nonsense. In what part of the city could a person go from his house to a news stand without meeting from one to half a dozen news- boys? As I went out on a recent Sunday morning there was a newsboys at each end of this square (one of them full grown), two smaller ones in between, two others a little more than a square further on and @ seventh a square off to one side—so thai within five minutes or less time I could have reached seven newsboys without go- ing: to a news stand. “I have a plan to suggest, to which I do not think any fair-minded ‘person can ob- Jet. Let any one who wishes a Sunda; Paper place fa a front window or in some ® rrominent place a card bearing the words, ‘paper wanted,’ or it might be more specific and read, ‘Washington paper want- ed’ or ‘New York paper wanted.’ Instead of annoying a whole neighborhood with their cries, the newsboys would simply look out for the cards and take the papers where they were wanted. The removal of the cards would stop any further visits of the kind for the day, and those not wishing papers would not be disturbed. “Let the Commissioners adhere to their order and see that it is enforced. The law gives us one day in the week to rest, and, consequently, places of business are closed. Let us have the day quiet, so that those who wish to rest may do so. ——— Rochdale Soctety’s Election.

The announcement that action is proposed looking to the procuring of a permanent memorial of Strong John Thomson has ex- clted considerable interest among the friends and pupils of the old teacher. A meeting of the old pupils and associates of Mr. Thomson will be held Gg action wili be taken and details for the securing of a memorial of the good teacher’s career in W: THB HAIR OF ‘CHE TO BB AN meat fot reer, eo Be re, ES THE CHURCH ARMY An Organization to Storm the Ramparts of Sin. Officers and Privates—The Plan of the Organization and Its Work. General Col. H. H. Hadley of New York, general commanding the United States Church Army, who, as stated in The Star, was in Washington yesterday, left for his home last evening. In referring to the work upon which he is engaged, Col. Hadley, in reply to questions from a Star reporter, sald: 2 ‘This great organization is founded on somewhat similar lines to those pursued by the Salvation Army, and preparations are being made by the United States Church Army commission, which has un- dertaken, by request, the general direction of the movement, to start a post in Wash- ington. < “Great care and caution as to methods and along church lines are being observed, and to that end the District of Columbia has been added to the department of the Alleghenies, the headquarters of which are at Pittsburg, and which is under the com- mand of Col. James K. Bakewell, a promi- nent attorney of that city, who has started several posts there. His law practice, however, brings him frequently to Wash- ington, and this was one of the reasons why he has been requested by Col. Hadley to add the District to his command. “It is stated that Mrs. Barrett, widow of Dean Barrett of Atlanta, Ga., who is one of the incorporators of the Florence Crittenton Mission Home here, has re- quested that a post of the army be estab- lished in Washington, and in this it is ex- pected many churchmen and church wo- men will co-operate. “It 1s hoped by those having the matter in charge that definite steps to found the Post will soon be taken, but no further movement will be made until the sazction of Bishop Satterlee and the consent of the rector in whose parish it is proposed to lo- cate the post shall have been obtained. No difficulty on that point is, however, antici- pated. “Without the consent of the bishop of the diocese and the rector interested, the work could not be begun, as it is one of the peculiar safeguards of the Church Army that while the military department is un- der the care of a military director, yet the church is represented by its rector, who, of course, receives his authority from ‘his bishop. “The Church Army commission, which controls the United States Church Army for the entire country, is itself a department of the parochial missions of the United States, which is composed of the bishops of the Protestant Episcopal Church and its evan- gelical clergymen. “Although the diocesan convention which met last September in New York, by reso- lution, offered comfort and advice to the Church Army movement,and encouraged its progress as a branch of the Parochial Missions Society, yet the movement {s not confined to New York, but already has branches organized in various parts of the United States, with three gregt depart- ments, to wic., the department of the At- lantic and the gulf, with headquarters at No. 428 Lexington avenue, New York, which is under the military direction of Colonel Hadley,who has been commissioned the general of the United States Church Army; the department of the west, with headquarters In Chicago, and the depart- ment of the Pacific, with headquarters in San Francisco. General Movement. “The general movement which is being started very cautiously has the sanction of Bishops Satterlee of Washington, Potter of New York, Whitehead of Pittsburg, Whit- aker of Philadelphia, Clark of Connecticut, Lawrence of Massachusetts and Hall of Vermont, each cf whom has expressed his willingness to give the promoters of the movement an opportunity to give it a fair trial. One of the most successful posts yet established is near St. Stephen’s Church, in New York city, which has connected with it an industry by which it has become self- supporting, and which enables men to help themselves. Recently meetings in aid of the movement were held there, and also at other churches in the. same city, also at St. John’s, Jamaica Plain, and at Lynn, all of which were highly successful. “Next Sunday the military director and his staff will go to Boston and conduct ineetings in the New England department, which has its headquarters in that city. A series of meetings to last three weeks will be held in Grace Church, Newton, Mass., and in other towns in the vicinity in the near future, and the colonel and some of his staff will address the students at Har- vard a week from next Sunday afternoon. “Archdeacon Brooks of Springfield, Mass., brother of the late Bishop Brooks, bas in- vited the military director and staff to con- duct meetings in twenty-two parishes in his archdeaconry. Meetings have also been arranged for February 21, 22 and 23 in Christ Church, Germantown, Pa., and a post, which was authorized to be started there, 1s nearly ready for commencing operations. “The object of the Church Army fs to reach the Christless and churchless who are not reached. by other methods. Its plans of work may at first appear to be somewhat like those of the Salvation Army, but they are really quite different, as may be inferred by the readiness with which the officers are admitted into the churches above named. It is true, that in some in- stances they use brass bands, orchestras, etc., and their uniform is resplendent and excites admiration, yet these are to be used with all prudence, and only good can be done by their use, the expediency of which {fs left to the decision of the rector in whose parish the post is established, as is also the question of the extent to which these musical instruments can be availed of. The rules and regulations provide a sys- tem somewhat after the plans of the United States army. The shoulder strap or insignia of rank {s a beautiful affair made in the form of a cross, and the national headquarters flag is ld Glory,’ with the stars so arranged in the blue field as to compose a white cross. “The training school at headquarters is carefully educating men who wish to be officers, since there are many more appli- cations for the services of officers than the commission is now able to supply. It is intended to make efforts to reach all class- es, including young men and young wo- men who, though churchless, have not fallen low in sin, yet its carefully guarded attempts to reach th: lowest down may be said to be the iong-needed organization for rescue work. “The motto of the army is ‘Christ and church loyalty,’ and the recruits, after showing by a life or probation of at least six months that they are sincere, are led into the church and its regular life, which is so much needed, not only by the rescued, but by rescue workers who in the Church Army teach that the Rescue Mission is not a side attracti but a recruiting agency for the church. Col. Hadley, in giving some information relating to himself to the reporter, said: “I was once a practicing lawyer in the city of Washington, and am now a member of the New York bar. I entered the United States army in 1861 as a private in the 90ch Ohio Regiment, and during the war was promoted through various grades to a lMeutenant colonelcy. I learned to drink during the war and became a slave to the habit. “I wes, however, converted about eleven years ago at the old Jerry McAuley mis- sion in New York. Some time later I was appointed by Rev. Dr. Rainsford super- intendent of a ‘rescue mission’ in his par- ish, and eighteen months afterward was appointed superintendent of St. Bartholo- mew’s mission. During the eight years I have started fifty-one rescue missions in various parts of the country, nearly all of which are in successful operation.” see Se SONS OF VETERANS BANQUET, Event ff Social ter Gen.
