Judge Reeve, the solicitor of the treas- ury, has rendered an opinion, in which he holds that members of boards of pension examining surgeons appointed by the com- missioner of pensions are not “United States officials,” and therefore are not en- titled, as such, to offices in government buildings. This opinion seems to conflict with the views of the civil service commis- sion, upon Ww recommendation these boards, receiving a compensation of over $200 a year, were placed under the civil service rules and regulations as officials of the government. —__-_-e- —____ The Eastern High School.

The interest in the international Chris- tian Endeavor convention of '97, to be held in San Francisco, July 7 to 12, seems to be growing rapidly all over the country.

The plans for the trip of the local dele- gation of Endeavorers. are perhaps in a more advanced stage than those of any other. The transportation committee, con- sisting of Mr. W, W. Tuckey and Mr. W. H. H. Smith, have been hard at work for several months perfecting the numerous details, and ure now about ready to issue to those expecting to make the trip a very handsome descriptive booklet of about sev- enty-five pages, giving the itinerary and a large number of illustrations.

No Authority to Cause Their Removal From Spruce Street. ‘The engineer department has been re- cently investigating the obstructions along Spruce street, Le Droit Park, between Larch and Bohrer ‘streats, with a view to having them removed before the improve- ments along that street are commenced. It was thought best at first to notify the property owners interested of the obstruc- tions and order their removal. They con- sist of encroachments on the sidewalk of fences and steps. Upon investigation, however, it has been found that nothing can be done, as the obstructions complained of were there when the street was dedicated to the District, and now it remains optional with the Pe erty owners whether will remove them. It was thought that by withholding the appropriation for the improvement this matter could be forced upon the owners, but as the appropriation bill the removal CONDENSED LOCALS rear Capt. Austin of the police departmg~t, who has been spending a few days on@iis farm, near Fairfax Court louse, has re- turned home. He says that’ the frost of several weeks ago did no damage on his Place, and he expects.a good crop of fruit this summer. Some little damage, he said, was done on the lowlands. Bicycle Detective »Rohert Boardman thinks there should be a tax of from 50 cents to $1 on bicycles, and any wheel found on the street -without the license number should be taken by the police until an favestigation could be made. Such a tax, he says, would not only increase the District’s revenue, buf would be of great assistance to the police in recovering stolen wheels and capturing bicycle thieves, Mike John, the colored man who was arrested in the county nét far from Lang- don. Tuesday night, and who was captured by a citizen after he had struck the colored man with a gun, has been released. He did not wait to complain about his treatment, but resumed his journey on foot in the di- rection of New York.

A Georgetown man named Samuel Harris was one of the police victims in court this morning. “You are charged with being disorderly and profane in a house on 34th strect,” read the clerk. “Are you guilty or not guilty?” “Guilty,” was his response, d when Judge Kimball said “Five dollars,” he step- ped back in the dock. Charlie Washington, a colored hackman, who has earned very little money lately, found business on the designated stands so dull that last night he drove along the curb line near Pennsylvania avenue and 13th street and solicited business, or did what the hackmen call ‘“‘crabbing.”’ Police- man Carlsson arrested him, but because he was short of cash he could not leave collateral. A fine of $2 was imposed on him this morning. ae eS Death of Capt. McKiernan, ‘The news has been received in Washing- ton of the death at Williamsburg, Pa., of Captain John S. McKierran, for several years a clerk in the army and navy sur- vivors’ division of the pension office.
