A new bakery building, equipped with modern improvements, has been erected, the second floor of which is used for a manual training school—the Sloyd system. The steam heating system has been overhauled, new pipes put in wherever needed, and all pipes laid in brick trenches, instead of wooden boxes. Repairs of various kinds have been made in the main and family buildings, an auxiliary cooking range installed, and the system of Water supply pipes overhauled and amend- ed. Necessary repairs have also been made to the boiler house, the work shops and green houses.

Ball, a clerk in the quarter- mastér general's office, at the War Depart- ment, died very suddenly this morning of heart disease while at work. He arrived at work this morning at 9 o'clock, as usual, but complained of feeling badly, and at 11:10 o'clock he died. He had been in the War Department for the last twenty-five years, and was sixty years of age. He bearded at 1425 Corcoran street, and was unmarried. A physician had been attend- ing him for the last three weeks, and was called in this morning, but he could do nothing as death had already ensued. a To Examine Hospitals. Dr. Hurd of Johns Hopkins Hospital,Bal- timore, and Dr. Chapin of the Pennsylva- ria Hospital, Philadelphia, are expected to reach Washington this afternoon or to- mcrrow for the purpose of making a tour of inspection of the hospitals of Washing- ten.

Pad to say that they appeared before a house filled throughout, or that the program was one which delighted to the extent of re- peated encores the large audience. With two exceptions, the numbers on the pro- gram had been heard here before, but they were rendered with such charming treat- ment as to make tom new. The new selec- tions were the ballet suite, “The Roses of Shiras,” by Ellenberg,a graceful grouping of waltz themes, and Macbeth’s serenta “Love a@ delightful bit of melody. The program was, as is usual with Sousa, composed of selections selected for the pur- pose of pleasing all tastes, the first being the “f] Guarnay” overture, by the Brazil- jan composer, Gomez, and with it began the demand for encores, which continued throughout the evening, and to which Sousa never failed to respond, his marches figuring most prominently, of course. There were two Wagner selections, the funeral march from “Der Gotterdamerung” und “The Ride of the Valkyries,’ and they admirably demonstrated the ability of the band to render the mogt difficult as well as the lightest of musi isa’s new march, “The Stars and Stripes Forever,” the au- dience required to be played three times. Miss Maud Reese Davies, the vocalist, sang the Linda De Chamoix aria in a rather pretty manner, but her voice is light and weak. Miss Jennie Hoyle, a girl violin- ist, played Nachez's Danses Tziganes very cleverly, as she did two encores. Sousa paid a local composer, Mr. Herman Rake- mann, the compliment of playing his march, “The Gridiron Club,” as an encore. REMENYI—Although there was a small audience on hand at the Columbia Theater last night the reception accorded Edouard Remenyi, the well-known violinist, and his assistants was none the less cordial, and, | on the other hand, seemed to be warmer and more sincere on account of the small number present. All who were present seemed in touch with the excellent quality of music given and every number was either enthusiastically applauded or em- Fhat‘cally encered. The program showed an excellent tase in the selection of num- bers. Mr. Remenyi played two movements, the andante and finale from Mendelssohn's violin concerto, “Habanera,” and ‘“Hun- garian Melodies," two of his own com- positions, and two of the caprices written by aganini for the violin alone. Rem- enyi’s own compositions were meritorious to a high degree, both showing the evi- dence of careful work and criginal inspira- tion. Although Remenyi has not been heard here fcr some time his reception showed that he had by no means been for- gotton. His playing showed all the fire and sweetness that characterized it in the past, and his technique and his in- terpretation of the various standard com- positions played were all that could be desired. Mr. William Sauvlet, the pianist, €asily shared the honors of the evening with. Mr. Remeryi. He not only played four solos and an encore number, but ac- companied the soprano, Miss Louise M. Brehany, and Mr. Remeny! in all their num- bers with the exception of the Paganini caprice. Mr. Sauvlet’s work showed that he deserves to rank high among the pian- ists known today, while his work as an accompanist has never been surpassed in this city, if it has ever been equaled. He played Chopin's Military”* Polonaise, ers “La Cascade,” Paderewski’s “Min. uct” and a mposition of his own, a Bae votte. In “La Cascade” he displayed a brifiiant technique while his playing of the Pederewski minuet was almost faultless. His own compcsition deserves to rank high anong works of its class. Miss Louise M. Brehany, the soprano, while not possess- ing a voice of any great range or force, serg her numbers acceptably, especially Rohm's “Calm es the Night” and New- comb’s ‘Slumber Song.” She also Sang tke Goring-Thomas arrangement of “A Summer Night,” and the vocal obligato ift Remenyi's “Habanera.” Mr. Sauvlet in the vocal numbers showed n's ability as an accompanist as emphatically as he did In the instrumental selections. The closing number, an Ave Marla arranged to su!t Mascagni’s intermezzo from the opera, “Cavalleria Rusticana,” sung by Miss Bre- hany and played by Remenyi and Mr. Sauvlet, was exceptionally well done. —— SYNOD OF BALTIMORE. Annual Meeting of Presbyterian Body Tomorrow‘ Evening. The annual meeting of the Presbyterian synod of Baltimore will commence tomor- row evening at 8 o'clock in the West Pres- byterian Church, of which Rey. Dr. W. C. Alexander is pastor, P street between 31st and 32d streets northwest, and continue day and evening probably until Friday morning. The exercises will begin with a sermon by the retiring moderator, Rev. Dr. Milll- ean of Wilmington, Del., following which an election for moderator for the ensuing year will take place. Wednesday will be devoted to the con- sideration of the business of the synod, and in the evening Rev. Dr. McCurdy of Wil- mington will preach, after which the sac- rament of the Lord’s supper will be admin- istered. Thursday, like the preceding day, will be devoted to business matters, and in the evening there will be a mass meeting held under the auspices of the Woman's Home and Foreign Missionary Society. The principal speakers on this occasion will be Rev. Dr. Ellinwood of New York, one of the secretaries of the society, and Rev. Dr. Brownson, pastor of the Tenth Street Church, Philadelphia. The synod comprises all of the Presby- terian churches in Delaware, Maryland, the District of Columbia and Virginia, each church being entitled to two representa- tives, one minister and one elder,.in the body. It is expected that the proceedings of the synod will be of considerable inter- est.. There has been an impression that the case of the Rev. Dr. Gregg of the Twelfth Presbyterian Church, Baltimore, would come up at this session, but it is as- certained that it cannot be reached because the presbytery of Baltimore has not yet assed judgement upon it. This is the sec- time that Dr.Gregg has been in trouble with his congregation by reason of his views on certain doctrinal points, and re- cently a petition was sent to the presby- tery of Baltimore by about one-half of the members of his church, asking that pres- bytery to dissolve the relations between him and the church. The annual convention of the Woman's Home and Foreign Missionary Society, which is affiliated with the synod, will be held Thursday in the Church of the Covenant, Rev. Dr. T. S. Hamlin, pastor. The sessions last all day. eS The Juvenile Templars. The regular session of Minnehaha Juven- ile Temple Saturday evening was well at- tended, Miss Daniel, superintendent, in charge. One candidate was initiated, Miss Mills presiding, Miss Beatrice Alpress, act- ing superintendent. A recitation was given by Miss Nellie Shipley, piano solos vy the Misses Annie Grigg and Eva Mills, and a vocal duet by Lillie Armstrong and Carrie Wise. Addresses were made by the super- intendent and grand superintendent. Undine Juvenile Temple had an interest- ing session Saturday afternoon, Mrs. Em- ma F. Bishop, superintendent, in charge. Two new members were initiated. sd Church Notes. At the First Baptist Church last evening Dr. Stakely preached from the text: “Then said Jesus to those Jews who believed in Him, ‘If you continue in my word then are you my disciples indeed, and you shall know the truth and the truth shail make you free.’ The speaker took the line that the line cf thought suggested by this scripture is simple. Belief in Christ is the condition of salvation; continuance in His word is the true test of discipleship; the outcome of this is moral and spiritual free- dom. Not those who hear only, but those who do are the true disciples. The saving faith is a dominating principle in the life, and shapes the issues of life. There is an esoteric feature in our religion, one that can only be known and appreciated by those wh»? have experienced it. The out- come of this knowledge is the freedom of the soul. The sweetest word to American ears is the werd “freedom.” The highest type of freedom is a conscience free from the accusations of evil. The services of the day were made the more impressive und enjoyable by the sweet singing of Mrs. Thomas C. Noyes, who is back in wer old place in the choir. Mrs. Noyes is widely known and beloved in the congregation, and a warm and most hearty welcome was given her at the close of the morning service. The subject of the sermon by Rev. Dr. Talmage at the First Presbyterian Church was “The Three Taverns,” the text pene from the Acts of the Apostles, 28:15. came to meet us as far as Appii Forum the Three Taverns.” ay 9:30 o'clock, and was largely attended by the many friends of the deceased.

Monsignor MeUo Maj. Tyler Introduced. At the conclusion of Mr. Barley’s address Chairman Kemper stepped to the front, and in a neat little speech introduced Maj. Tyler, who, amid loud cheers, began his remarks, saying, in part: “My friends, I do not come in the hopes of winning your applause, but come with an earnest and willing spirit to speak a werd for old Jeffersonian democracy. First, I.shall talk about our ticket; it’s the thing I like best ‘at this time—it’s about the best thing I have seen im this state, It has cn it a black-headed than, a red-headed man and 2 bald-headed man, and, surely, ought to be elected.-fhe red-headed man —Jack Montague~is the best exponent of democracy that I know: of in this state, and with old Barley dt the end of it, I pre- | dict, that she is going through.

The people are not satisfied, and I want io say so again, and I don’t.propose to #e forthe other stde. af “You know as well.as I that the famine in India, where thousands of souls were starved to death, had the effect to increase the price of wheat here, and I am surprised that we did not get more. They say that the restoration of confidence and pros- perity did it, @ut I know, and so db you, that it was the demand for our wheat, and the failure of crops in other parts of the world.” Maj. Tyler touched upon the gota éoin’ issued, and drew comparisons, and stated that ‘if'we had the right sort of’ a ‘moné-” tary system ia.,this country then pros- perity’ would be restored. Enthusiasm ran high when Maj. Tyler took bis seat,-anad hundreds of persons mounted the stage to grasp him by the hand. ‘The gallery was filled with ladies, and many were the handkerchitfs that were being waved, and when the major made his exit from the hall he was’ literally besieged by the fair sex, all anxious to have a word from him. Maj. Tyler spent yesterday quietly in this city as the guest of Mr. GC. C. Carlin, at- tending the morning services at the Second Presbyterian Church. Yesterday afternoon he drove to the handsome residence of Mr. Frank Hume, in Alexandria county. He left on the midnight train for Harrison- burg, where he will speak today. A Horse Thief Captured. Policemen Knight and Beach Saturday afternoon arrested a white man named Henry Clements, who was charged with stealing five horses. Sheriff Robinson of Albemarle county arrived in this city Fri- day last with a warrant for Clements’ ar- rest. The sheriff had learned that he was in this locality, and, with Sheriff Palmer of Alexandria county, they proceeded to make a earch. The man fled to this city, where, as stated, he was located'and arrested, To a Star reporter Sheriff Robinson stated that Clements had stolen a horse in Rockingham county, fer which he was ar- E ; rested and put in jail to await trial. “He | mo second choice for Scott’s Emul- succeeded in breaking: Jail there and came to Albemarle county, Where he got away | sion, with four horses.

So far as Baltimore was concerned the fact’ Was stated in every annual report ot the board of school commissioners that the Public schools were overcrowued, while at the same time there were hunureds of chil- dren who could not be admitted because ‘there’ was no room for them. Monsignor McColgan anticipated years before that |'stich''a crisis would be reached and he pre- pared for it by having built a large number of educational institutions. To this object he devoted a large private fortune, and when this source of income failed, in order to carry out his plans, wealthy friends came to his assistance. Despite this, however, when the outery against parochial schools became in that city very loud, Monsignor McColgan pro- posed to the highest Catholic authority in this country to do exactly what it is now ‘stated Archbishop Corrigan is offering to do. ‘That bods ignor McColgan no expression of its views on ‘the subject and the propesition was allowed to slumber auietly for several years, when Archbishop Ireland of St. Paul made a similar proyo- sition in regard to the parochial schools in his diocese, It is reported that the plan was tried in St. Paul in a limited way ‘or some time, but was finally abandoned as im- practicable. It is now claimed that there are many archbishops who are favorable to the trial of the plan originally suggested by Mon- Signer McColgan and indorsed by A\ bishop Ireland, provided the policy meets with the approval of their colleagues and is Cardinal Martinelli, who, as known, represents the pope in this country. It is believed that this matter will be discussed at the meeting of Catholic arch- bishops, which begins at the Catholic Uni- versity Wednesday. —— Death of Mrs. Boarn. Mis.
