The proposition to erect a national mon- ument to the memory of those who per- ished ‘by the deatruction of the battle ship Maine in Havana harbor has taken hold of the-American heart. Contributions are ecming in freely, and in this city 150 boxes have been put up in prominent places and are being rapidly filled. In every city of the Union some movement has been start- ed and an ‘effort made to swell the fund to the largest’ possible proportions. in Washington it has taken the shape of theatrical and musical entertainments, one of which, a monster performance is to take place at the Columbia Theater next | Friday from 1 to 6 o'clock in the after- neon. A rare bill of attractions will be offered on this occasion. Nearly every theater in the city will con- tribute some. of its forces, and it is expect- ed that the audience will equal, if not ex- ceed, that which packed the Columbia at the recent Elks’ benefit. The Clara Morris Vaudeville Company will appear in its entire strength. The famous emotional actress who gives the ccmpany its name is to give a sketch, as- sisted by Mr. F. J. Harriott, and it is not to be doubted that her many admirers will ficck to see her. There will be Richard Harlowe, the great female impersonator, of “the Daisy Queen of Spain” fame, in a sketch with Mr. Geoffrey Stein, and it ix probable that each of these capable ar- tists will also do a separate “turn.” Others of this company are Lew Hawkins, mono- logue artist; Fialkoroski, bird charmer and imitator; Frank and Will Gardner, musi- cal comedians; La Petite Adelaide, pre- miere danseuse, and Allie Gilbert,”in’ popu- lar coon songs. Miss May Irwin, who will be at the New National Theater next week, has consented to give one of her famous character sketch- es from “The Swell Miss Fitzwell,” and her sister, Miss Flo Irwin, who is billed at the Academy of Music in “The Widow Jones,” will also be seen and heard. From Kernan’s Lyceum Theater will come a number of the members of the “Miss New York Jr.” company, among them Harry Le Clair, in female impersonations; Miss Marie de Rossetti, in gun manipulations; the celebrated Morellas, in acrobatic exhi- bitions; Crawford and Manning, rough and tumble terpsichorean artists; Repley and Williams, in parody and repartee; Miss Florence Edwards, the picturesque dan- seuse, and the Dazzling White Squadron March Corps, consisting of eleven hand- some young ladies. The Bijou Theater will contribute the Olympia Quartet, which has made a great reputation in its specialties. Davenport to Be There. More interesting to many than any other one attraction on the bill will be Mr. Homer Davenport, the distinguished car- tooniSt of national fame, whose caricatures of noted men in public life have been seen and enjoyed from one end of the country to the other. Mr. Davenport has kindly con- sented to make a flying trip to Washington and on this occasion will make a number of Ughtning character sketches of men in pub- lic life, whose features will be readily rec- ognized, even though they are limned slightly out of the ordinary, and he company these pencilings’ with brie scriptions of the careers and pecullarities of his subjects. Besides these professionals, a number of Washington's best-known amateurs have volunteered to appear. Among these are Miss Anna Lowe Jones, the southern elocu- tionist; Miss Constance Hurworth, the double-note mocking bird; Misses Clara J. Stevens, Maggie Diover and rie Hodg- son, in their delightful dance, entitled “The Vivaudieres,” and Mr. Leo P. Wheat, who will entertain the audience on the piano as only: he can. eer ‘The whole entertainment 18 being ~ar¢ ranged by Mr. Edwin B. Hay,» who has thrown himself into the work, heart and soul, and his management of it is a suf- ficient guarantee for the success of the un- dertaking. Messrs. Luckett and Dwyer, the man- agers of the Columbia, have generously of- fered the theater free of any charge. To those, and to all the other managers who have freely consented to permit the attrac: tions at their theaters next week to co- operate, great credit is given. Concert at the Grand. Ore of the best concerts ever given in Washington is also in process of arrange- ment, the object being to increase the fund for the monument. It has been set for the evening of Sunday, March 13, and will come off at the Grand Opera House, which Messrs. Kernan and Rife have generously offered for this patriotic purpose. The chief attraction instrumentally will be the Marine Band, whose recently ap- pointed leader, Prof. Santelmann, will meke his first bow to the public in this capacity. If is some time since the band has been heard in a concert of this kind, and its presence cannot fail to attract its legion of friends in large numbers to the Grand. ; Next in Ine will be the National Guard Band, under the leadership of Prof. Mc- Leod. -This band consists of thirty-two in- struments, and though but recently or- ganized it has already achieved great pro- ficiency. —” The Madrid Mandolin, Banjo and Guitar Club, Prof. E. Youndt, conductor, is aiso going to take part. The gentlemen ccrrposing it are anxious, for obvious rea- ns, to change te name of the club, and have agreed to adopt the name of the ves- sel that fires the first shot in-the war with Spain—provided there is a war and the ship is not the Terror. In any-event, they want to be known hereafter by some other ap- pellation, The Soloists. Of soloists there will be Mrs. Kittie Thompson-Berry, Mrs. Margaret Nolan Martin, Mr. W. D. McFarland, Mr. John H. Nolan, Mr. Sol. Minster, jr., the violin virtuoso; Mr. Arthur E. Mayo, the pianist, and Mr. Henry Jaeger, flute player. The German singing socicties, the Wash- ington Saengerbund, the Arion and Ger- mania Maennerchor, have cheerfully con- sented to lend their co-operation, and the beautiful songs of the fatherland will be interpreted as only they know how to do it. —— Old Envelopes to Be Destroyed. _ It is not uncommon for orders to be re- ceivéd at the city post office for envelopes that have long been out of stock, collect- ors knowing only through individual let- ters from the postmaster that they could rot be supplied. In order that intending purchasers might have due time and no- tice to secure the envelopes they might want it was decided to make public an- nouncement of those that would be de- stroyed after June 30 next. At the expira- tion of that time the post office will be un- able to supply them, and, if at all, will be obtained only from private collectors, prob- ably at a premium. .The following is a list of the envelopes which are to be destroged: Letter sheets, 3c. Envelopes—No. 1, 2-cent, old issue; No. 2, 1-cent, amber, old issue; No. 2, 2-cent, first quality; No. 2, 2-cent, second quality; GG, 2-cent, old issue; No. 3, 2-cent. amber, old issue; No. 3, 2-cent, second quality, old issue, fawn and bli Columbians—Q,2-cent; P, 2-cent; R, cent; R, 5-cent; G, 5-cent; H, 5-cent; H, 10-cent; I, 5-cent; I, 10-cent. —— Sleepy Hollow Clab.

A donation of $25 was sent to the conference ‘as its share of the earnings of the fund bequeathed to the general con- ference by Attelia F. Christman and Caro- line Clarke. The stewards read their preliminary re- port. Rev. W. H. Reed was granted a lo- cation, at his own reque’it. The same-re- lation was granted to H. €.

Dr. Gray spoke at length on the fact that the Baltimore conference was the mother and father, too, of this worthy institutton of the M. E. Church. He told of the man- ner in which the organization was per- fected, and of the fact that it began with a debt. Now, Dr. Gray said, the church owned property worth $200,000, and has ecucated about 7,000 students. There are, Dr. Gray said, fifty students at the semi- nary preparing for the Methodist Episconal ministry. He told of the great advantages | offered by the Williamsport Seminary, and spcke of its general influence in the ad- vencement of Methodism. He closed his remarks by asking for the prayers and sympathy of the conference and for an indorsement to aid in carrying on the work. Dr. Buckley, editor of the Christian Her- ald, was next introduced, and told of the work being done by the paper. He was followed by Rev. Dr. Thomas Smith, secretary of the missionary board. Dr. Smith told of the working of th® mis- sionary board and siated that it was the intention of the board to furnish free for one year to every preacher and presiding elder a copy of “The Missionery Gospel,” a paper published by the board, so that con- tributors to the missionary fund could know how their money is disposed of. Dr. Smith said that there is now $160,000 in sight to pay off the debt of $200,000 of the Missionary Society, and asked for p-edges of support from members of the Baltimore conference, whe had not al- ready pledged themselves, and his request was liberally responded to. ; The Laymen Heard. Rev. Dr. Lanahan announced that there was present a committee» from the con- vention of Methodist Episcopal laymen, who met yesterday, and asked that they he heard. The committee was granted the floor and presented the memorial adopted by the convention. The paper was re- ceived and laid over until 9:80 o'clock Mon- day morning. Rev. Dr. W. V. Kelly, editor of the Meth- odist Review, spoke. for about ten minutes on the advantages of that magazine. Resolutions were adapted approving the ccurse of the missionary socl*ty in sending out free literature, and pledging the sup- port of the conferenge in’ rafsing the ‘so- ety’s debt. : : oe ‘gavel was presented, which it was stated Sunday at or Miles B.
