The patrons of the eighth grade, Adams School, were very pleasantly entertained | by the scholars and their teacher Saturday. The room was artistically decorated with flowers and potted plants, and the drawings and compositions which are the result of nine months of hard work. All of this work was first-class, especially the drawings. ‘The program rendered was “short, but sweet,” there being only twenty numbers, but these were very pleasing. The order of exercises was as follows: Dumb bell drill, Misses Ritter, Finckel, Edwards and Hall, and Messrs. Holmon, Conger, Stiles, Lang- file and Le Birton; chorus, the school; rec- itation, Miss Hall; piano solo, Mr. Le Bir- ton; essay, Miss Ritter; recitation, S. H.

Langille; chorus, school; essay, Cor- bett: recitation, Miss Hendricks; piano solo, Miss Fitzgerald; recitation, E. Tillson; ceremony of coronation and presentation. The drill was pretty and well done. All of the participants were attired in white, and the drill music was furnished by Miss MacCuaig, while Miss Ritter led. The coronation ceremony was pleasing indeed; Miss Ritter was the young lady who was crowned, she having been chosen by her mates as being the most perfect in character both in school and at home. Miss Hendricks, who was second in the contest, made a short speech and per- formed the coronation. Spencer E. Dickinson, who was selected as best boy, was presented with a pin, L. E. Langille, who was next in the contest, making the presentation speech. When the regular program was finished ice cream and cake were served to the guests, and the afternoon's entertainment closed with a short speech by the superin- tendent. —————— CHILDREN’S DAY. Program of Exercises at the Anacostia M. E. Charch. The childrep's day exercises, which took Place last evening in the Anacostia M. E. Church, were attended by a large congre- gation. Under the direction of Mr. H. A. Linger, superintendent of the Sunday school,a plat- form was erected especially for the occa- sion, and on this nearly all the younger members of the school, more than seventy- five in all, occupied seats. The decorations were arranged by Mr. Chas. F. Linger, and were very elaborate. They consisted of wreaths and various de- signs constructed of vines, interwoven with flowers and growing plants. Among the most attractive of the wreaths was one trimmed with ripe cherries. Mr. H. A. Linger had charge of the ex- ercises, assisted by Mr. Dan Smithson as ‘al director, and Miss Edith Pyles as organist. The principal address was made by Mr. F. A. Stier, superintendent of Mt. Vernon Place M. E. Church Sunday school, Washington. Others who took prominent parts were the Misses Anna Summers, Sarah Shannon, Mabel Pyles, Grace Dewey, Birdie Williamson, Sideila Baker and Bir- die Harrison and Master Elijah Kinsella. Besides, there were dialogues by a number ot the smaller children. ee Special Train to Milwaukee vin Pennsylvanian Railroad.

Not an unfav- orable notice kas been received in any city visited, but, on the contrary, all unite in pronouncing the performance the best ever seen. Another point always emphasized is the marked cleanliness of the show in a noral s nse. Catch-penny swindling ée- vices are rigidly excluded, and no act which could in any way offend the most Puri- tarical person is permitted to nave a place on the program. The Wallace shows al ways make friends, as courtesy is shown attache of the cireus, and children without escort’ are jal attention. ‘The shows have never exhibited in Wash pgton before, but all lovers of the circus can attend during the coming engagement, secure in the knowledge that they will see the best of everything that boundless re- scurces can secure or long years of ex- perience suggest.

Policeman Hester stated that while pa- trolling his beat cn 7th street northwest Friday evening, he was approached by Cole, who said he was on the verge of star- vation, and wanted to be sent to a place where he could get something to eat. Cole told Judge Kimball that he was formerly in business in Richmond, Va., and several months ago his property, with its contenfs, was destroyed by fire. His enly child also burned to death. Later his wife died, and being alone in the world, ard without any means of his own, he con- cluded to come to Washington to look for work. His search here was in vain, and after doing without food for several days he con- cluded to surrender himself to the officer, and asked the judge to send him to the werkhouse until he could hear from friends in Richmond. Cole gave the court the names of some prominent citizens of Washington, how dead, who, he said, were relatives of his. He felt quite confident, he said, that some of his friends in Rich- mord would come to his relief when in- formed of his straits, and Judge Kimball accommodated him, as stated. —— A valuable tract (part of Grassland), con- taining about eleven acres, will be sold at auction by trustees tomorrow afternoon at 345 o'clock.

Got a Front Seat. “You can't come in here today,” said Policeman Flynn to a man who delighted in hearing stories of the downfall of ath- ers, when he reached the door of the Po- lice Court. “Why net?” inquired the man. “Because. you have been here all the week,” said the policeman, “and this is no theater. “I'm a stranger in the city,” said the man, “and this ‘s my last day in town.’ “Then you ‘may come in, returned Mr. Flynn, and the man ‘court. . got e@ front seat in FINAL MASS MEETING. District Christian Closes Work for 1896-97. The final mass meeting of the District of Columbia Christian Endeavor Union, for the year 1896-'97, was held Friday even- ing in the Church of the Reformation. The edifice was tastefully decorated with ‘96 convention flags, and presented a pleasing appearance. The proceedings opened with a spirited song service, conducted by Mr. Charles 8. Clark, and with devotional exercises, led by President Miles M. Shand. The pro- gram of the evening, which was arranged by the good literature committee of the District Union, included four ten-minute addresses of special interest to this depart- ment of Christian Endeavor work. Rev. Adam Reoch, pastor: of the Fifth Congregational Church, spoke upon the topic, “The Effect of Reading on Char- acter. resulting from a person putting his heart and sympathies into light and useless lit- erature, and urged that Endeavorers should read only the best, of which there was an abundance, and which would tend to de- velop intellectuality and morality. “Find the natural run of your mind,” said the speaker, “and place yourself in a position where you can study the works of those whose minds have run in a similar channel as your own. “The Use and Abuse of the Periodical,” was the topic of an address by Rev. J. Fred Heisse, pastor of Wesley M. E. Church. Mr. Heisse referred quite strong- ly to the menace to the youth of the land which existed in the wide circulation of immoral and sensational literature, and urged upon his audience the necessity of vigorous action toward abating what he considered one of the greatest evils of the day Miss Mary Owen Dean of the Eastern High School spoke in a very pleasing man- ner upon the subject, “What Shall I Read in the Summer?” The speaker referred to summer time, with its relaxation and rec- reation, as an opportunity for great intel- lectual strengthening. She urged that all debated books be laid aside, and that the best of writings, of which there is such an abundance, be read. Miss Dean named a number of authors whose writings she would recommend for summer reading. The closing address of the evening was made by Rev. Asa S. Fiske. His toplc was “Culture for Service.” “Culture,” said the “can be for nothing else but He referred, however, to the two kinds of service for which culture could be attained. Culture employed for selfish enjoyment and position, the speaker thought, was less desirable than ignorance and poverty. Development for a high and unselfish purpose, that of usefulness to others, and in advancing the cause of righteousness and justice, was the only true and profitable culture. The meeting closed with the singing of the hymn of consecration, “I'll Live for Thee,” and the benediction. $4.00 to Philadelphia and Return via and 0. R.R.

In a communication today to Judge Kim- ball of the Police Court, Dr. J. Wesley Bovee, visiting physician to the Washing- ton asylum, stated that Oswald C. Abing- ton is of unsound mind, and not a fit per- son to be allowed his liberty. Abington is the man who last week at- tempted to force his way into the presence of the British ambassador, in order to have an imaginary bank account investi- gated.

Combined with the strictly religious part of the work, which is, of course, para- mount, is the educational department, and its moral associations. Theclasses referred to have been:tested to their utmost capaci- ty during the past schoolvyear, and if a new building was erected it would offer much better facilities to help the youth of Washington to obtain a first-class educa- tion at a moderate rate. The city of Washington probably does not fully realize Its debt of gratitude to those energetic and faithful few who have stood by during the dark days of its ex- istence, and made it possible, at this time, to give the people of Washington a chance to contribute to this worthy object. The remarks of visitors to our eity are words of surprise that a better building for the Y. M. C. A. is not erected here, and the remark can only he met by the statement of its noble work in years gone by and its plans for future usefulness. May the day not be far distant when Washington, the {center of learning and culture, shall neve within its borders a building for the Y. C.

The Pentz will make her usual trips ard tickets wale be good on any one of them. The Boston House Employes’ Relief As- sociation will give its annual excursion to Marshall Hall tomorrow evening. The em- ployes of Woodward & Lothrop, May 19, 1899, organized this association, with the object of creating a fund for the relief of its members in case of sickness or death. It gives an excursion to Marsha!] Hall an- tually, for the purpose of adcing funds to its treasury preparatory to the winter sea- son, when the greatest demands are made upon it for sick benefits. The employes al- ways manage to have a good time, too, on these outings, and the excursion is general- ly one of the most enjoyable of the season. The Boston House will close at 5:30 tomor- rew, in order that its employes may have ample time in which to prepare for the trip and complete the necessary arrangements. River View was yesterday the objective point of hundreds of Washingtonians, who, anxious [0 escape the heat of the city, spent the day on the cool and shady lawns of River Vie The Pentz made three trips to the View, and on each trip carried down a good load of passengers. The “chute” and the numerous other attrac- tions at the View afforded much amuse- ment to the visitors, and the concert by the River View orchestra, under the lead- ership of Chris Arth, jr., was greatly en- Joyed. The Government Printing Office Council, National Union, is at Marshall Hall today. It has been an all day affair. Hundreds went down on the earlier boats, and a good crowd is assured for tonight. ‘This Did She See For Months Can Now SleepWell, Eat Well and Pains Have.

Yesterday was one of the biggest days at the Hall this season. The boats went down thronged to their utmost: capacity. The band concert on the lawn in the after- noon was enjoyed immensely. Every one enjoyed themselves, and the crowds proved Marshall Hall to be the prince of resorts for Sundays, or, in fact, at any time. Great crowds are taking advantage of the pleasant evenings to visit Chevy Chase lake. where an enjoyable time can be had.
