The result of his thoughts was neve known by the pastor, for the man and his bride were seen no more. The attitude of the pastor during the no- teriety of the case was not a clear nor a comfortable one. He has been referred to as the enemy of the Durrants throughout the whole trial, and all that has followed it, but he claims that the first assault was made upon him by the prisoner and his friends, and that after such a show of an- tagonism he could not offer to assist them, ; Knowing that he himself was considered by them as their greatest enemy. The first idea he received of the under- current against him was when he was shown a telegram from Los Angeles telling the chief of police to “arrest the pastor at ence; will follow later with facts.” Right or wrong, the pastor attributes this tele- sram to the emissaries of the defense, who were working every means to stay the tide of public opinion which was turning so fast against Durrant. There was no name sign- ed to the telegram, and there was no indi- cation as to who sent it, but the evident purpose was to bring the pastor within the The Quickest Ones in the World Are in Kansas City. From St olas. The quickest horses In the world were at one time in Kansas City, at the headquar- ters of its fire department, directly under the office of the chief, Mr. George C. Hale. To Mr. Hale's genius, more than to any other factor, the quick horse owned his first development; for Mr. Hale is the in- ventor of the earliest swinging harness— which made the quick horse possible. When Mr. Henry M. Stanley and his wife were in this country, they witnessed an exhibi- tion drill of the Kansas City fire depart- ment. The drill so impressed the visitors that an account of {t was published in a London jour and this English article brought an invitation to Mr. Hale to visit England as the representative of the Amer- ican fire service at the international fire tournament.

WASHINGTON’S DEATH Its One Hundredth Anniversary to Be Commemorated. THE CEREMONIES AT MOUNT VERNON Ten Thousand Master Masons Ex- pected to Participate. THE COMMITTEE IN CHARGE The committee appointed by the Grand Lodge of Masons of Virginia to arrange for a proper obggrvance of the one hun- dredth anniversary of the d2ath of George ‘Washington, December 14, 1899, will hold its first meeting in Alexandria the 22d of this month. Mr. K. Kemper, grand junior warden of the Grand Ledge, is chairman, and the other members of th committee are J. B. Sener, John W. Daniel, J. E. Wil- lard and Michaja Woods. The anniversary ceremonies are to take place at Mt. Ver- nen, but the banquet (if it shall b2 decided to have one) will be given in this city.

It is intended that the services at Mt. Vernon shall be similar to those of the burial cer2mony. Inception of the Movement. The movement for a proper commemora- tion of the one hundredth anniversary of the burial of Washington had its inception about two years ago in the Grand Lodge of Cclorado. Since then one aft2r another of the grand lodges of the United States nave appointed committees to take measures for representation of their r2spective juris- dictions. This movement, initiated by Masons, has extended to all patriotic and civie socie- ties, so that in every city, town, village and harolet a memorial service will b> held December 18, 1809. There are cogent rea- sons why this movement should appeal with peculiar force to Masons everywher>, for a review of the records of Washingion’s death and burial ts beautifully suggestive of the high ideal of fraternal love and charity ever cherished by the father of his country. Two days before his death, when mak- ing the circuit of his farm, Washington Was overtaken by showers of rain and sleet, and he returned to the mansion house at Mt. Vernon in a chilled condition. Th result was an attack of acute laryn- gitis, from the effects of which he dizd, while in the ful possession of his facul- ts : the morning of Saturday, December 14, 0, During his last illness “the general,” as his friends and his neighbors call:d him, was attended by three physicians. The first was his old friend and companton-in- arms, Dr, James Craik, surgeon general of the continental army, and a member of the Masonic fraternity. The other physician from that neighborhood was Dr. Elisha Cullen Dick, then master of Alexandria Ledge. Dr. Brown of Port Tobacco was called into consultation. At the moment of Washington's death Dr. Craik stopped the pendulum and hands of the clock that stood on the mantel cf the room and which remains today in the same condition it was then left. The clock has become the pos- session of Alexandria-Washingion Lodge, No. 22, of Alexandria, Va., of which lodge Washington was first master. Washington’s Dying Request. In his dying hours the general communi- cated to his secretary, Mr. Lear, his desire not to be buried until three days had 3iapsed. His wishes were respected. A family tomb, or vault, had been erected by his brother, Lawrence Washington, on the sloping hillside overlooking the placid wa- ters of the Potomac river. Few and sim- ple, therefor2, were the preparations re- quired to bury the dead hero as modestly and unostentatiously as he had lived. Con- temporary accounts published at the time State that a multitude of persons asscm- bled at Mt. Vernon from many miles around, Wednesday, December 18, 1799, the day cf the burial. After his military and public life, Wash- ington’s standing as a churchman and Mason had made it seem most fitting that the ceremonial part of the obsequies should be conducted by the clergy of the Protest- ant Episcopal Chureh and by his Masonic brethren of Alexandria and Washington cit. As e& churchman he had generously given of his substance toward the support of public worship. The original records of ‘Krist Church, Alexandria, Va., show that bruary 27, , the then newly complet- ed building was formally presented to th vestry, and the me day ten of the pews were Offered fc le, Washington becom- ing the purchaser of pew No. 5, paying therefor 36 pounds and 10 shillings, the highest price received. The 28th of March, 1765, when thirty-three years of age, Col. George Washington was elected vestryman ef Christ Church. He did not then accept this office, because he lived in Truro pa ish, and he, George Mason and others were erecting Pohick Church, about four miles from Mount Vernon. Of Pohick Church he was a vestryman, ard here he commun- ed, as his wife and many others have borne testimony. In 1782 the old pastor of Po- hick Church became disabled and his flock scattered, many of them becoming mem- bers of Christ Church, Alexandria. The Rev. Thomas Davis, therefore, was selected to read the burial office of the Protestant Episcopal Church at the mansfon house in Mount Vernon and at the old stone arch- way of the Washington family vault. Mr. Davis was at that time rector of Christ Church, The Capitol Corner Stone. As a Mason Washington ‘ had _pre- sided at the laying of the corner stone of the Capitol in Washington, officiating Sep- tember 18, 1793, as President of the United States and Masonic past master. On that occasion he wore his master’s sash and the apron presented to him by Lafayette, and which had been wrought with gold and silver tissue and beautifully adorned with Masonic emblems by the Marquise of La- fayette. Lodge No. 39 of Alexandria was formed in 1783, working first under a warrant of the Grand Lodge of Pernsylvania. After- wards this lodge adopted the name of Alex- andria-Washington Lodge, and as Lodge No. 22 derived its warrant from the Grand Lodge of Virginia. To Alexandria-Washington Lodge was giv- en the post of honor in the Masonic detach- ment of the funeral procession. Masons ot the District of Columbia were also in line. Of the three lesvér lights that were borne into Washington’s tomb two were held by members of Alexandria-Washington Lodge of Alexandria and one by Alexander Mc- Cormick of Georgetown. Two of these candles are preserved under lock and kgy by Alexandria-Washington Lodge, and the third is in charge of Secretary Single- ton of the Grand Lodge of the District of Columbia. This third light was carried, burning at the laying of the corner stone of the Washington monument in this city, at the dedication of the same, and it will be lighted for the fourth and last time at the centennial celebration of Washington's burial. Such troops as were in the neighborhood were ardered out on the day of the fun- eral. Between 3 and 4 o'clock the 18th of December, 1799, minute — were fired from the schooner lying In the Potomac river. The procession was then formed and moved from the mansion house at Maunt Vernon, It was led by the United States cayalry, followed by the infantry and guards with arms reversed. The clergy followed, and the general's favorite horse, with his saddle, holsters and pistols, was in the line in advance of the pall- bearers and the bier. The bearers were Cole, Simms, Ramsay, Paine, Gilpin, Mars- tellar and Little ‘Then foligwed the mourners, the Masonic brethren and citi- zens. Militazy Honors. ‘When the procession -had arrived at the bottom of the elevated lawn on the banks of the Potomac, where the old family vault still stands, the cavalry halted, the infantry marched toward the mount and formed their lines. The clergy, Masonic brethren and citigens descended to the vault, where the eommittel was read and Masonic ritual completed. Three general discharges of arms by the infantry, the cavalry and eleven pieces of artillery which lined the banks of the Potomac back of the vault, paid the last military tribute of honor to the dead hero and commander. ‘The sun was them setting on this memor- “able scene, nature's testimony that, though his earthly day was aver, he had awak- ened to the brightness of the eternal morn- ing. The tomb in which Washington laid was not considered by him a safe condition. Although this belief of his is not generally known, an old ex- slave, born and reared at Mount Vernon, informed the writer of the family ‘tradi- tion that Washington had declared the hil where tho old tomb is would in time give way. For that reason in his will the general directed the construction of his Present tomb, indicating the exact loca- tion it now occupies, and requiring that it should be built of brick. These instruc- tions were carried out only after a gard- ener on the place burglarized the family vault and obtained a skull which he thought was that of the general. It was not, and such as it was it was recovered from the thief. The shock of this sacri- lege led to the erection of the present vault in 1831. Into it were transferred the re- mains of all of the family previously bur- ied in the older vault, including the general and Mrs. Washington. Afterward, jn 1837, the body of Gen. Washington and that of his consort were moved to the sarcophagus in which they now lie, without the family vauit, but within the outer wall, and pro- tected by a double iron gate. The present and future generations are reminded of the deliberate and twice repeated declaration of Lord Brougham: “It will be the duty of the historian and sage of all ages to let no occasion pass of commemorating this illustrious man, and until time shall be no more will a test of the progress which our race has made in wisdom and virtue be derived from the veneration paid to the immortal name of Washington.” was first to be in gee! OLD MERITORIOUS CLAIMS, Two Bills Introduced Looking to Their Settlement. Senator Teller, chairman of the Senate committee on claims yesterday introduced two bills in the Senate, embodying the re- sults of the committee's investigation under the provision of the general deficiency act of last session authorizing that committee to investigate and report upon meritorious claims against the government which are before the committee. One of the bills refers numerous claims t6 the court of claims and the other is an omnibus measure providing appropriations under general heads, as follows: Court of claims cases (mostly under the Bowman act), $1,840,963; French spoliation claims, $1,043,117; under naval contracts, $792,500; on account of churches and schools, $365,974; claims of states, $4,603,- 128; miscellaneous claims, $807,204; for ad justment and settlement (in part), $130,35! total av, «0,223. AIL but about $2,000 of the claims of states allowed are for the refund- ing of moneys advanced for raising troops during the war of the’rebellion by Califor- nia, Oregon and Nevada. Provision is made for the investigation by competent tr bunals of the claims of Florida and Ten- nessee against the United States, and the counter claims of the general government against those states. Beth these contentions are of long standing. + Provisions also made for the adjustment of claims of fifteem other states amounting in the aggregate to $195,260, which are the 1esults of expenditures made by the various states in equipping troops during the war of the rebellion, Im these cases an official investigation is ordered and no appropria- tion is made. Many of the claims on navy contracts Gate back to the civil war, and are on ac- count of insufficient allowance for vessels built under the pressure of the times. Settlement iss made under the heading “miscellaneous” of quite a number of claims which admit of no specific grouping. These claims are varied in character and cover an extendéd period of the nation’s history.. A large number of them grow out of the civil war Senator Telier presented a comprehensive report covering all the features of the bill m @etail. AUCTION SALES. THIS AFTERNOOX.

The Senate committee on military affairs has authorized the reporting of a bill fix- ing the rank and pay of military attaches of the United States 2mbassies and lega- tions at foreign courts. The bill is recom- mended by both the Secretary of State and the Secretary of War, who say that {ts passage is necessary to give our mili- tary representatives abroad equal rank with those of other countries. The at- taches of legations are given the rank and pay of a major of infantry by the bill, and those of embassies the rank and pay of colonels of infantry. . Senator Allen’s proposed amendm:nt to the Indian appropriation bill, providing for a congress of Indian tribes next fall at Omaha exposition, was favorably reported yesterday by the Senate committee on Indian affairs. It provides an appropria- tion of $45,000 for the service. Senator Frye was authorized by the Sen- ate committee on commeree to make a favorable report on the bill providing for licensing second and third mates on sea- going steam vess?ls. The Sehate committee onscommerce au- thorized the reporting of a bill, in accord- ance with the recommendation of the Treasury Department, establishing a steamboat inspector's district for Alaska. The purpose of the measure is to insure the inspection of vessels on the Yukon river, ee Consulates as Sample Rooms. The Secretary of State has approved a sugg2stion made by United States Consul Magill at Tampico, Mexico, that a section of the consulate be used for the exhibition of samples of United States products, such as soap, grain foods, cutlery, writing paper and, in fact, “any article of small size that can be easily handled. The consul Says if manufactur2rs desire to take ad- vantage of this permission, either he or his cierk will be glad to invite local mer- chants to call and examine the articles, and they will also personally represent their good qualitizs to the best of their ability. In all cases, he says, charges for freight and delivery should be prepaid. Consul Magill has: been authorized by the department to carry out the proposed plan, “as being obviously in the int2rests of manufacturers of the United States, pro- vided that all expenses shall be defrayed | by the firms sending samples, and that no part of the cost of the proposed exhibition shall devolve upon the consulate.” ————-o-—_____ AUCTION SALES OF REAL ESTATE, &c. ‘Today.
