BUILDING FUND Progress of Movement for Increasing the Suitscriptions. Work cf Committee of One Thousand —Names of Those Who Are Can- —- ee a ORT vassing—The Prospects. Just when actual work will be com- ™menced on the construction of the Young Men's Christian Association building is as yet unknown by the officials of the associa- tion, but it 1s possible that operations will be begun some time during the summer, certainly as soon as the $100,000 required shall have been raised. About $44,000 of this sum has already been subscribed. Mr. James E. West, secretary of the “committee of one thousand,” which is formed for the purpose of canvassing for funds, was seen by a Star reporter this morning and stated that every effort is being made to increase the membership of the committee to the limit. Some of the churches, he says, have done well in fur- nishing members, while others as yet have | not done anything. About fiity members of the committee have reported subscriptions amounting to about $1,000. Nearly 400 canvassers have been enrolled, and if they have all been working and are doing proportionately as well as the first fifty, the committee will be credited with having secured subscrip- tions amounting to about’ $8,000. It is expected that each church in the city will lend @ helping hand in this work. > Following is a list of the members of the committee so far enrolled, showing the churches to which they jong: Metropolitan M.

The Law Bequisle' @ssions to Be Held on HoBdays. Opinion of Dmtrétt Attorney Davis Upon the Swixjatt—Provisions of the Saw Quoted. From time to ¢ime’ during several years past the questien das arisen among the officials of the Pelice Court of the District as to the right vf the judges to dispense with holding a session on legal holidays. During the term of the late Judge Miller he and Judge Kimball examined the stat- utes on the subject, and each arrived at the conclusion that a session of the court must be held every day in the year except Sunday. Since Judge Scott’s accession to the bench the subject was reopened, he believing that the court could adjourn over such a day and Judge Kimball adhering to his original view of the case. In order to elicit further. information upon the point Judge Kimball.a few days ago asked District Attorney Davis for his opinion: on the subject, and he has received from him the following reply: “I have your favor of the 12th instant asking my opinion whether the Police Court has the power of adjourning over legal holi- days other than Sundays under the law providing for its organization, Without Authority to Adjourn. “It 1s my opinion that the court has no Power so to adjourn. The general law pro- viding for public: holidays in the District is section 993 of the Revised Statutes of the United. States relating to the District of Columbia, and that section declares that the daye therein named shall be holidays within the District, and shall, for all pur- boses of presenting for payment or accept- ance, for the maturity and protest, and giv- ing notice of dishonor of bills of exchange, bank checks and promissory notes or other negotiable or commercial paper, be treated and considered as-is the first day of the week, commonly called Sunday, and all notes, drafts, checks or other commercial or negotiable paper failing due or maturing ae RECEIVE DIPLOMAS.

How have Apollo Quartet was twice encored. Washington's birthday, Inauguration day and Decoration day were not originally included. These last-mentioned days were made holidays by the acts of Congress of January 31, 1879, June 18, 1888, and August 1, 1888, respectively. ‘The act declaring ‘Washington's birthday a holiday amended section 903, above quoted, by the following words: ‘By adding to the days therein de- clared to be holidays within the District the twenty-second day of February, and said day shall be a holiday for all the pur- poses mentioned in said section.’ “The act making Inauguration day a holiday contains similar language. “The act making Decorazion day @ holi- day is in the following words: “ “That the thirtieth day of May in each year, usually called Decoration day, shall be, and hereby is, made a holiday within the District of Columbia as fully in all re- Spects as are the days mentioned as holi- days in section 993 af the Revised Statutes of the District of Columbia.’ Purpoge’ ef Congress. “In ordinary, an enactment that a given day shall be a legal holiday might be thought to make such day a dies non peridieus to the fulf extent to which Sun- day is such this non juridicus, but the use in section $93 of the words which I have quoted shows thet dt was the purpose of Congress to make the days therein mention- ed holidays, for the purposes mentioned, and this is reinforced by the janguage of the several acts above quoted making Washing- ton’s birthday, Inauguration day and Deco- ration day holidays, for such acts, in terms, provide that those days shall be holidays for the purposes<mentioned in section si. 1 em aware. that the’ holidays in the Dis- trict have, been considered such’ by the vari- } ous departments of govermifent, so-tar as the work of.this,department ‘is concerned, but this fact dees not in my opinion affect the question, “As respects the Police Court, it seems to me that all doubt is removed from the Question by the terms of the law creating the court, which law ‘provides that the coor shall hold a term on the first Mon- lay of every month, and continue the same fore day to day as long as it may be neces- Sary for the transaction of its business. As legal holidays are not excepted in this pro- vision, I do not see any escape from the conclusion that so long as the court has cases to try it must sit from day to day, exclusive, of course, of Sundays, as Sunday has been a dies non since the beginning of our law. “A further consideration is that, as is well settled, public policy very often requires that legal holidays must be disregarded, even when they are holidays for more pur- poses than are the days declared to be holi- days in this District; and as the Police Court has to do with offenders who, under the law, would be required to be confined without food during the whole of the legal holiday, if the court were not sitting on that day, and as Congress could have ex- cepted legal holidays had it been its inten- tion so to do, I think it clear that the court ought, and under the law must, sit on legal holidays, as has been its practice since its organization.

Se INAUGURATING NEW GROUNDS. The Capital City Gun Club Shooting Out at Highlands. The Capital City Gun Club will inaugu- rate its beautiful new grounds at High- lands, on the main branch of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad, this side of Hyattsville, with a practice shoot this afternoon. Num- erous invitations were sent out to the gen- tlemen sportsmen in Washington, and a large crowd of gun lovers will be in attend- ance. The shooting grounds are the finest in the country, the positions before the traps being in the shade of a grove of immense oaks, giving a clear sky for a background for shooting. The club has allowed no ex- pense to hinder its efforts to equip its new home with every convenience and arrange- ment for comfort. Trains on the Balti- more and Ohio stopping at Highlands leave at 3:15, 4:30 and 5:30 p.m, and the grounds are but two minutes’ walk from the sta- tion.

This failure 10 find a cure fos diseases of the respiratory organs must not be construed to mean a lack of ability on the part of the medical profession, for they have discovered many remedies which would kili these germs. "Yo strange to say, not one of them could be conveyed to the parts affected by dry air. It can be readily seen, then, that the discovery of “Hyomel,”” a germicide of sufficient power to kill once, the pecans of these diseases, and at the same time volatile enough to imp! ite every particle of air breathed by the patient, yet leaving it free from mofstvre, was one of vital Importance to the medical world. Doctors thro tt whole country began to test the efficacy of this new remedy, and now, after two years’ trial in hundreds of are ses under their own care, over 3,809 physiclans clatm that “Hyomel,"” the Australian ry Air Cure, is the ONLY treatment by which all the diseased parts of the respiratory organs can be reached and cured. ed Furthermore, it is claimed that in families who are predisposed to catarrh and consumption. if the fathers and mothers will but instruct thelr chil- dren in the use of “Hyomel,”” the rising generation will be freed from those dread diseases. It would secm, then, that nothing remains to be done in or- der to remove these discases from the lst of dan- gerous ones, but to teach the people the value of "Hyomel, “HYOMEI" CURES BY INHALATION. “Fyomet” Qatfit, $1.00.
