Stee Homing Pigeo Washiogton district of the National Fed- eration of American Homing Pigeon Fan- ciers had its first of the current series of old-bird races Sunday, May 9, from Chester, . an air line distance of 110 miles. Sat- urlay at 4:30 a.m. ten baskets, containing about 600 homers, left the Pennsylvania railroad station via the Atlantic Coast Line train for Chester. These baskets contained the flocks of twenty-seven of the most prominent lofts of this city, and was the largest shipment of the kind ever made from this place. The birds were libe-ated at 6 am. by Mr. J. M. Cofer, the day being an ideal one for the sport, with fair weather and wind. The first recurns made an average speed of nearly a mile a minute, an achieve- mept unprecedented in the history of the sport in Washington, and establishing a speed and distance record for the District. The first bird to reach home was to the loft of L. B. Nye, average speed 1,723.94 yards per minute; second, J. T. Biker, 1,722.0% yards per minute; third, J. T. Eiker, “07.86 yards per minute; fourth, C. A. Morgan, 1,678.00 yards per minute, and fifth, T. A. Walsh, 1,678.54 yards per min- ute. These birds are winners of diplomas in this race, according to their respective positions. The Halstesd timing device was used for the first .time, and with few exceptions was highly satisfactory, south | = DR. HAMMA’S PRODUCT. COMMITTEE ON ITS ROUNDS. ‘WOMEN'S GOOD WORK. A Beautifal Series of Windows of His | Pythian Representatives Meet With | opjects of the Nagioml Cuban League - Designing. Rev. M. W. Hamma, D.D., of this city, who is temporarily in charge of the First Evangelical Lutheran Church, Altoona, Pa., has been the means of having placed in that church a series of stained glass win- dows which are said to be probably the most remarkable that have ever been made in this country. This series of windows is illustrative of the promfnent events in the earthly life of Christ, in historical order. They were se- lected and arranged by Dr. Hamma. Tae subjects chosen for the series may be brief- ly. described as follows: Beneath the Gothic tracery pediments are panel groups, which filustrate inel- denial stages in the life of Christ, marked moments which the profound painters, as well as scholars, have thought best to dwell upon in color and words. Here also is Melanchthon, an original idea of this mighty character being given; Luther, like- wise, is shown. as depicted or sculptured on the monument at Worms. The Virgin used is adapted from the “Assumption,” by Murillo; the “Nativity,” or adoration, is an adaptation from the Renaissance period of peinting; “The Journey Into Egypt” is af- ter Furst; “Christ in the Temple” and “Christ in Gethsemane,” by Hoffman; “Christ Walking on the Water,” by Plock- hurst; the “Resurrection” and “The Walk to Emmaus,” by the same artist; “The As- on,” by Bierman; “Christ Before Pi- ” by Munkacsy. The others are semi- criginal compositions, and these embrace “The Baptism of Christ,” “Raising of Laz- arus” and “Christ Bearing the Cross.” In these panels great care has been used in the disposition of drapery; the robes of the elders, the textures, their flexibility and arrangement are splendidly produced. Above the panel groups the splendor of the variegated tints or hues, seen in tracery, with the open work which overiays them. give an effect which must be seen to be ap- preciated. Specially interesting. in two distinct fea- tures, is the original window, which is hamed the “Gate of Heaven.” This win- dow, which is the conception of the Rev. Dr. Hamma. both as to its subject and all its essential details, is intended to bring these historical theories to a striking and mcst exalted climax. Tre window preceding it represents Christ in the act of ascension. This one shows the golden gates open to reccive Him, and leaves the shining portals wide open after Him to admit all His fok. lewers into the joys and glories of heaven, texained to fallen man. This window is a gift of the children and teachers of the primary department of the Sabbath school to their superintendent. The approach consists ef three steps of gold effect, which lead to and through the vine- clad open gates of gold. Through this one gains a glimpse of the beautiful verdure in the holy foreground, while above it all the clouds uplift the Savior toward the ethereal regions above. In the perspective the even- ing shadows seem to approach, and the new quiet city of Jerusalem outlines its domes against the twilight skies. Ae THE MERIT SYSTEM DEFE! ED. Mr. Siddons’ Reply to the Communten- tion of Senator Gallinger. To the Editor of The Evening Star: I trust you will yield me space to take issue with your medico-senatorial corre- spondent in his statement regarding what he is pleased to denominate “the absurd- ities of the so-called civil service.” I as- sume he means civil service reform, or rather the merit system of administering the civil service. I emphatically deny that any efforts are being made “to make it appear that the examinaticns are now very practical,” and I call upon the New Hampshire states- man for a bill of particulars. Nor -is the system that the gentleman so dislikes in any danger from the American people. On the contrary, there still exists a strong suspicion that this system received a rather emphatic indorsement at the hands of a majority of citizens whose votes were cast, or at least counted, in the recent presidential election. While the senator's statement “that al- most every immigrant inspector in the country is a democrat” is alarming and disquieting to the republican patriots who are manfully coming forward to offer themselves as sacrifices upon the altar of their country, yet “the government at Washington still- lives," and uniess there can be found in the ranks of the republi- cans men who know the Scandinavian and German languages (the senator suggests there are none such, and, of course, we are bound to believe him) It is quite prob- able that those enemies to our institu- tions, the aforesaid democratic immigrant inspectors, will remain to threaten and perhaps destroy them. But those physical tests to which the senator alludes in closing his letter are altogether shocking. I had not before sup- pesed that the civil service commission was so indelicate as to require persons de- ing to enter the government service to hep twelve feet on one foot in a state of nudity. This must stop, and no doubt the best way to put an end to so demoraliz- j ing a condition of affairs is to return to the good old plan of measuring the quali- fications of would-be government employes by their ability to carry a ward primary or to corral the electors in their respective districts and vote them in “blocks of fiv But, let me see, is this the method that prevails In all the commercial, banking and manufacturing establishments, and which Senator Gallinger longs to see adopted by the governme: F.

Niles of Harmony Lodge, the chairman of the com- mittee of ‘ways and means, and who is in charge of the building of the temple, re- ferred to the great work the committee of forty-five is doing. He mentioned the fact that the committee now owns a valuable piece of ground in the District, estimated to be worth $25,000, and, among other things, said the civilized people of the world had eulogized the fame of their benefac- tors, the fame of their heroes, the fame of their statesmen, with statues and ever- lasting memorial. buildings, to show them homage in a substantial way. Shall we be beneficiaries, he inqpired, and yet neglect to do honor to those who have served and labored for our interest, those who have given us the bread of Pythian- ism? Foremost among them shall stand forever Justis H. Rathborne, whose brain originally conceived the plan of the grand order of the Knights of Pythias. He spoke of the progress of the order during the last twenty years, showing the immense amount of good the 500,000 Knights of Pythias in Ameriga have done. He also spoke of the excursion which is to be given to Marshall Hall on the 16th day of June, and invited all friends of the order to participate. The other speakers of the evening were J. C. Yost, N. Anderson, R. B. Rennett, Cc. C. Blackston, H. J. Gasson, J. Kelley Mangum, J. H. Wills, H. W. Lewis, R. M. Davids of Pennsylvania, John H. Dobson of Tennessee, F. L. Kleindenst and W. M. Hodges, who made short speeches appro- priate to the occasion, with the temple as chief topic. = The hospitality of Harmony Lodge was extended to all present after the speeches. Ice creazm ard cake were passed around, after. which the members enjoyed a good smoke. eee THE A. P. A. ADJOURNS. Items of Business Transacted at the Closing Session. The Supreme Council of the American Protective Association, in annual session here since Tuesday last, completed the business for which it was convened adjourned sine die last night. After the report in yesterday’s Star closed, a number of alterations were made in the constitution of the association, the most important of which changes the representation in the Supreme Council to one delegate from each congressional dis- trict of the states, and four from each of the territories and the District of Co- lumpia. This will be in lieu of one dele- gate from each of the subordinate coun- cils over which the national body has jurisdiction, ard one from every 2,000 mem- bers in state and territories which have superior ccuncils. The proposition to elect officers biennially failed. The president's salary was increased to $3,000, and that of the secretary to $2,000. it was decided to organize an in- surance society within the order. and the work of putting it into practical operation was left to the executive board. After listening to a number of addresses on the work of the order the council ad- journed to meet in this city again next year. a A Presentation. At a meeting of Kentuckians assembled last night at the residence of Dr. W.

She had got- ten the key from the agent and moved her effects into the house without making any formal arrangements about rent payments.

At an clection held only a few days ago the county voted “wet.” This decision carried with it the stipulation that there must be a revenue of $8,000 col- lected in the event of the opening of a saloon. It develops that two saloons are to commence business, and the proprietors will, therefore, pay $4,000 license each. Should any more saloons open they wili be eee on the basis cf the $4,000 license ax. a Ki POWDER Absolutely Pure YOU HEAR SO MUCH ABOUT nowadays are minute bodies in- visible ‘to the unaided eye.

Mrs. Stella LeeSteyenzon was elected corresponding secretary, and Miss Mabel Clayton recording seeretary. After the new officers were duly installed, the director, Mrs. Brown, made a few remarks, outlin- ing the scope of th>:work contemplated by the Woman's League, the chief object being to afford succor to the sick and wounded Cuban patriots and their distressed and starving women and children and to. the end of making Cuba’ free; to organize branch leagues in every city and town in the United States; to enlist the practical sympathy of the American people in such a ferelble marner that the government will be no longer able to stay public sentiment and will be compelled to act. A petition to the ministers of every de- nomination to observe Sunday, May 16, as a day of special prayer for sufferiag Cuba was placed in circulation. Mrs. Burrows, wife of the senator from Michigan, made e few remarks expressive of her approval of the purposes of the Woman's Cuban Natio -al League and prem- ised a continuance of the help and inilu- guce which she had already used in its be- alt. Mrs. Isabel Worrell Ball made a ring- ing speech, echoing,the feelings of all present regarding the apathy of the gov- ernment during the last few: years, and was heartiiy applauded. Dr. Lake, former president of the United States Cuban League, complimented the members of the Woman’s League for the energetic and businesslike way in which they were pushing the organization for- ward, and expressed his approval of a woman's auxiliary to the national league. Mrs. Brown thanked him for his kind ex- Eressions, but stated the Woman's National Cuban League did not desire to be consid- ered as an auxiliary, but as an indepen- Gent self-supporting “organization, willing to co-operate with the Cuban National League.
