AFFAIRS IN GEORGETOWN Services of an Elaborate Nature at Trinity Churehir : Local Notes of General and Especial Interest to Residents and Taxpayer. ———— The tenebrae services;jast evening at Trinity Church were exiéilent, and there was a large attendancé? The services of the evening were shorter than will be those of this evening ara tomorrow be- cause of the fact theré was no sermon delivered. The lamentations, miserere and benedictus were chanted by a choir of fifty-one voices, mostly boys, who were trained by Mr. Michael Scanlan, a nephéw of ths pastor. His tutorship was good, and the showing made by the boys last evening reflected much credit upon -him- self. In all there were sixty-two persons within the chancel rail, making a grand sight. This morning there was solemn high mass celebrated at 9 o'clock, at which the pro- cession to the repository’ was held. The repcsitory is beautiful, being a mass of flowers and plants, with Lghted “tapers extremely artistically arranged. During the day many hundred people visited the church. The tenebrae will be chanted this even- ing at 7:30, followed by a short sermon. Tomorrow morning at 9 o'clock mass of the presanctified will be celebrated, with the chanting of the passion of our Lord and the adoration of the cross. The tenebrae services last evening at the Dahlgren Memorial Chapel of George- town University were well attended by outside persons, in addition to the students, the admission being by card. The sing-. ing was excellent, _ se The Holy week services last evening at the West Wasbingt mirrors— The $17.50 Sets are offered at— H : You needn’t look , any further If you want a bargain in Chamber Suites—here are three.

The regular mid-week service at the West Street Pres- byterian Church will be held this evening. Live Wire. There came very near being a bad accl- dent yesterday afternoon at the corner of 32d and M streets, in which a young line- man, whose name could not be learned, was the victim. The young man was en- gaged in removing a wire from the wooden pole at the northwest corner, one of the dead ones formerly operated by the United States Electric Light Company. By some mistake or other, the young man grabbed hold of a live wire,-and the strong current burned both his hands badly. The sudden shock threw him backward, and his body stiffened out, being held in place only by another wire. His screams attracted the attention of a number of people, and in a short time there was a large crowd around the place. Policeman Bailey, who is sta- tioned at the corner, expecting the man to fall at any moment, stood ready to catch the body and deaden the fall. As soon as possible the lineman was removed from his dangerous position, and it was found that, outside of his scorched hands, he was all right. His Will Filed.
