AFFAIRS IN GEORGETOWN Poverty Given as Reason for the Commission of Forgery. e Program of Services at the Churches. —An Arrest for Mlegal Gun- ning — Brevities. Poverty, it is declared, was responsible for the arrest of Bessie Eungs, « white woman, aged abcut twenty-!wo years, who. lives at 1225 32d street. She was taken in custody yecterday afternoon by Policeman Harry upon a charge of forgery and of ob- taining money under false pretenses. The unfortunate woman, who lives with her husband, and who, while working, receives something like $3 per week, has received charity from the Georgetown branch of the Associated Charities during the past sea- sen. The funds of the organization are too low te permit the granting of further re- hef, and, being in need, Mrs. Bangs wrote out an order for some groceries, signing the name of Mrs. Bessie B. Bowen, who has charge of the Georgetown branch. The order was taken to tke grocery store of J. E. Thompson of 1269 22d street, and ‘the clerk in the store horored the same. The order was shown to Mrs. Rowen, who declared it a forgery, and the matter was called to the attention of the police. ‘The storekeeper also added a charge of ob- teining the goods under false pretenses. The woman was locked up, and, as no col- lateral could be furnished, was Kept in the station. This morning in the Police Court the two charges were consolidated into one o: petit larceny, the amount involved being given at’ 50 cents. The prisoner plead guilty, and sentence in the case was sus- pended. Church Services. Rey. John F. Quirk, S. J., of Gonzaga College, will deliver the last of the series of Lerten lectures tomorrow at the late mess at Trinity Church. Rev. George V.

Ebenezer Church Organ. ‘The closing program of a series of musi- cal concerts at Ebenezer A. M. E. Church Was rendered last evening. The choir cf the Metropolitan A. M. E. Church, with Prof. John T. Layton as director, was the attraction, and there was a crowded house.

When he saw Mr. Hazel fire his gun he started in pursuit of him and overtook him on the Kengla farm. His companion, who seemed to have th? game, got away, but Mr. Hazel Was not so fortunate, for the officer arrest- ed him and recovered a dove that he had killed. A charge of discharging firearms tco near a public road was preferred against Hazel, and he left $5 coilateral at the station for his appearance in the Police Court this morning. He failed to appear and his collateral was forfeited. Brief Mention. A box party will be given by the ladies of the Masonic fair and exposition commit- te2 at Masonic Hall Tuesday night.

A Notable Entertainment to Be Given at the Columbia Theater. Boating is the latest branch of athletic sports engaged in by the boys of the Cen- tral High School. Several weeks ago a call was issued for candidates for a crew to represent the school in the national scho- lastie championship regatta, to be rowed at Philadelphia July 4. A score of boys responded to the call, choosing Rhillip Bal- linger, "98, as captain and C. D. Young, '98, manager. The managers of the Columbia Athletic Club gave the boys the use of the club gymnasium for preliminary training, and also the privilege of practicing in the boat house tank before going out on the river. For three weeks the candidates have been hard at work, under the watchful eye of Hickox, captain of the C. A. C. Boat Club, and one of the best rowing coaches in the south. In order to secure funds sufficient to de- fray the expenses of the crew, the Central Athletic Association will give a matinee next Friday afternoon at Columbia Thea- ter. The entertainment will begin at 2 ‘clock, all the high schools being dis- missed at an hour sufficiently early to al- low the pupils time to reach the theater before the curtain rises. The program has been very carefully and deliberately selected, in order to secure a maximum of variety with a minimum of fatigue. A committee, consisting of Messrs. Cc. -D. Young, Ballinger and Mulden, has been working faithfully for two weeks in order to secure the very best possible tal- ent. As the leading attraction they an- nounce the Bohemian Minstrel Troupe, an organization composed almost entirely of local people, which has recelved much favorable comment in all the large cities of this section of the country where perform- ances have been given. In the first act the members of the trouple will do a number of comic scng and dialect spectalties. Much of the music is original, and the dialogues are all very clever. The second act will be composed entirely of specialties by some well-known performers, not members of the troupe. Chief among these is Mr. Harri- son, the leading member cf the Castle Square Theater, Boston, who does what he calls a “Willie Act,” a society burlesque sketch. Mr. Harrison comes to Washing- ton especially for this matinee. Prof. Downey of the Carroll Institute, quite a famous buck and wing dancer, and Mlle. Granger will “trip the light fantastic.” Royce Hough of the Light Infantry is down for an exhibition of Indian club swinging. Keith O'Connor will sing several new and catchy selections, and another attractive number will be by the Mandrins, a cele- brated mandolin club. Comic sketches by Edmonds and Rogers and songs by Shipe and Thayer will follow, and the act will conclude with a thrilling exhibition of trick bicycle riding by Prof. Baker, formerly of Madison Square Garden, New York. Asan interlude between the second and third acts there will be a drill by the Central High School fancy drill team, which is con- ceded to be one of the best cadet drill teams in the country. The team is cap- tained by Major Harry T. Domer, and the other members are J. C. Norwood, J. H. Gunnell, H. M. Shuster, C. D. Young, Paul, Heilman, Bogan and Black. 3 The concluding part of the program is @ one-act farce, “Mr. Johnson's Intelli- gence Office,” one of the most comical lit- tle plays ever put on the stage, in which the parts are taken by the members of the Bohemian Minstrel Troupe. z 2 _—>—__..

BAPTIST HOME FUND. Entertainment Given = at Sunday School Home. The electrica! entertainment for the bene- fit of the Baptist Home building fund, given at the Calvary Baptist Sunday school house last night, was a most successful affair. A large andience was present, and the many novel and effective numbers that made up the program received a full share of ap- plause. The musical and literary features were contributed by Mr. B. Frank Gebest, pianist; Miss Annie B. Forbes, reader; Miss Sadie Guard, an attractive club swinging act, and Miss D. Myrtle Dexter and Mr. Arthur Earnest.

And, with the determination to sell the best millinery that money can buy at prices that haye never been equaled for low- ness, shorn of all exorbitant charges, as is usually the case— there is no reason in the world why we should not in time re- ‘cord an immense success in this line.
