Local Notes of Interest From Across Rock Creek Bridge Told in Brief-Paragraphs. An American flag will at last be unfurled frcm the new flag pole on the Threlkeld schcol building, ‘at the corner of 36th and Prospect avenue. The event will occur on Mey 12, under the auspices of the American Guard Council, No. 1, United American Mechanics. This council is now the oldest patriotic beneficial organization in this city, having been Instituted January 15, 1883, by John Server, at present na- tional secretary of the order, with thirty- one charter members, six of whom are at this time members in good standing. The council will form at 2: p.m. on the day of the celebration at 31st and M Streets, with invited guests, and, preceded by a band of music, will march to the school building, over a route yet to be selected, where patriotic exercises will be held. The exercises will in part consist of divine invocation, singing by the school children, opening address by Professor B. T. Janney, supervising principal of this division of the public schools, music by the band, flag salute by the children and an oration by Mr. Jesse H. Wilson, a mcm- ber of the board of school trustees, repre- senting Georgetown. The Threlkeld school is the oldesi of Georgetown’s schools, but has never yet had @ flag over it, although for several years the school has had in ‘ts posses- sicn a flag. When the American Mech: ics asked Mr. Janney why the school was without a flag he courteously replied, and informed the council that ihe school owned a flag, but had no pole from which to fly it. The council at once proceeded to put into motion the machinery for the crec- ticn of a pole, and the result is that it is new in place, and if all works well and the weather permits a public demonstration will be held at the unfurling of Old Glory. The exercises will commence at 3 o'clock, and all patriotic citizens are invited to be present. Two Arrests. Frank Warring, a white man, aged twenty, was arrested shortly after 2 o'clock this morning by Detective Burrows on a charge of larceny, preferred by Charles McCarthy. Warring drives a barrel wagon, and isst_ week visited Mr. McCathry’s store on Valley street. He went down in the cellar to get a barrel, but instead of tak- irg the right one, carried off one that contained eighteen gallons of whisky, val- ued at $15. Harry Gosnell, aged seventeen, was with him, and he, too, was arrested. This morning Gosnell was permitted to go, he not having anything to do with th- theft, though he will be used as 4 witness against Warring. . Robert Johnson, colored, was arrested Saturday by the same officer for the theft of a broom, valued at 25 certs, from Jacob Leverstein. The Churches, Cardinal Gibbors was to have visited Trinity Church on next Sunday and admin- ister the sacrament of confirmation to a large class and give the first communion to a number of candidates, but a lecter received from him states that he will not be able to be at the church until Sunday, May 23. The ceremonies have accordingly been postponed until that date. The annual May procession of the chil- dren of the Sunday school will be heid this year on Sundsy, May 30. It will prob- ably be conducted differently fiom here- tofore. The May devotions at the church, which were inaugurated Saturday evening, were well attended on the first evening and also last evening. The services will be held every evening during the month at 7:30 o'clock. Policemen Busy. The police station did a rushing business Saturday and yesterday, and all of the cells cortained two or more prisoners. There were a good number of drunks joo! ed up, but the other petty offenders w sufficient to more than test the accommo- dations. In all there were thirty-two ar- rests, of which only seven were plain drunks, while the balance were held on charges. The regular drills of the police of the precinct will be resumed this afternoon and continue all through the summer season. While not as yet announced, Policeman An- tony Fennelly will be drill master for one platoon and Policeman Dan Connors for the other platoon. Policeman Jack Maher is suffering from an attack of muscular rheumatism and unable to do duty. Charge of Assault. John Jackson, allas “Red Bill,” was ar- rested Saturday evening by Policeman Connors on the lower M street beat on a charge of assaulting Frank and Leonard Grimes, colored. Jerry Jones, who was with Jackson, was also arrested, but only one charge of assault was placed against his name. The two were sober, and claim- ed that the other two started in to whip them, but got more than they bargained for, though the police reached the scene in time to see the other men get the worst of the encounter, and locked all parties up, the Grimes boys being charged with plain drunk. Used a Knife. Sylvester Moten and August MceNier, both colored, became Involved in an alter- cation Saturday evening at the P street bridge, the latter claiming that some money was due him from the former. Mo- ten pulled out a penknife and ripped Mc- Nier in the neck and stomach. While the injured man was taken to the Emergency Hospital for treatment, the other man was arrested by the police of the third precinct and held on a charge of assault with in- tent to kill, River Rising. From reports received along the upper Potomac, the recent rains are responsible for a rise in the river, though at this end of the line nothing serious in the way of a freshet is feared. At Cumberland it ts re- ported that the river has overflowed its banks and the meadow grounds are flooded with water, while similar reports from oth- er places show high water. The river being narrow at these points, is more apt to change with the small rainfall than down here. Notes. Mrs. Samuel E. Wheatley and family have left the city and will remain at their country home, Moreland, near Bethesda, Md. ‘The annual competitive drill of the Boys’ Brigade of Peck Memorial Chapel was held Friday evening, and proved to be a very successful affair.
