Takoma Lodge of Odd Fellows Enter- tain»—Other Notes. The hall of Takoma Lodge, No. 24, I. 0. 0. F., at Takoma Park, was filled with the friends of the lodge last evening, who came to witness the rendition of the degree of Friendship by the team of Federal City Lodge, No. 20. Past Grand Master John H. Wood introduced “Uncle Sam” and “Oli Glory,” who were enthusiastically receiv- ed and became a prominent feature during the conferring of the degree. The masterly manner in which the several evolutions and marches were made by the team evok- ed applause, and the written and unwritten work of the degree was delivered without a fault. The team consisted of “King Saul,” Gtd- eon H. Baxter; noble grand, T. B. Felter; th right supporter, N. W. Bridges; left sup- porter, kK. R. Hale; vice grand, W. F.

The latter part of the session of the @en- ate yesterday was devoted to eulogies in Memory of the late Senator Walthall of Mississippi, the Senate adjourning at 5:0% p.m. until 11 o'clock today. But little Progress was made on the revenue bill yes- terday afternoon. Mr. Teller continued his remarks after The Star's report of the Sen- ate proceedings closed. Mr. Teller said he did not believe there should be a line drawn between state and national taxation. If this line was to be drawn the states might render it impossible to conduct a great war. He said the people of the Unit- ed States were better able now to pay a thousand millions as internal tax than they Were to pay $300,000,000 in the civil war. As for himself he would not only tax cor- Porations, but he would alse include pro- ducing individuals. He would not put a tax upon the poor; he would put it upon the rich. He would tax salaries as well; those of senators as of others. But, he said, the taxing power was greatly embarrassed by the decision of the Supreme Court in the income tax case. With the greatest respect for that body, he said, he maimtamed that the court's de- cision, ‘carried to its logical conclusion, meant simply that the rich could not be taxed. He believed that decision was the most serious blow at the sover the people since the government wa ed. Mr. Teller defended the policy of levy- ing an income tax. He read extracts of speechse delivered more than twenty-five years ago in the House by Mr. Hale and others who are now members of the Senate. in nese among others, Mr. Culiom an. “I am in favor of an income tax now, retorted Mr. Cullom. Mr. Teller: “Well, I'm glad to hear tt. Before Mr. Teller had concluded _ hi speech the bill was laid aside that the Sen- ate might take up thé special order—eulo- upon the late Senator Edward C. Wal- the special order was pending Mr. Seweil (N. J.) moved that the Senate concur in House amendment to Senate bal suspending certain provisions of law relating to hospital stewards. The ame mt was that the increase of stewar yuld not eed one hundred. Mr. Se ell's motion was agreed to. ported by Mr. A bill was re- well providing for the em- ployment of retired army office the present war. It was pass Mr. Money (Miss.), peing re sented the resolutions upon the Mr. Walthall. The eulogies were nounced by Mr. Money (Miss.), Mr. Hay ley (Conn.), Mr. Berry (Ark.), Mr. Proctor (Vt), Mr. Gorman (Md.), Mr. Cannor (Utah), Mr. Ce (Mo), Mr. Bate (Tenn.), Mr. Pasco (Fla.) and Mr. Pettus (Al MOTHER GIVES U HER CHILD, A Widow and Unable to Provide for Lit the A mother today abandoned her right to her pretty three-year-old child in Hquity Court No. 1, Judge Cox presiding, because ne. she is a widow and unable te support the lutle one.

Therefore, this morning, Mr. and Mrs. Reichert took Vina before Judge Cox. and afier subinitting the necessary petition and the mother’s written consent, the court made the order by which the child be- comes, 48 the petition solemnly prays, “heir at law of your petitioners, the same as if the said infant had been born to your petitioners.” Nina, unaware of the part she ing in the tragedy of life, fitted ab court room with all the pertness of a litt sparrow. Clerk Clancy beamed upon. th child and found pleasure in her innocent joyousness, and even Judge Cox's usually stern face broke into pleased smiles, while Nina examined all the nooks and corners of the old court rcom. Ss As Gladstone Memorial Services.

Alexander Mackay-Smith, D.D., has con- sented, in response to a numerously signed request, to have a special memorial service ing members.

Immaculate Conception Charch Fair Has Gratifying Success, The Immaculate Conception fair, which is now going on at the parish hall on N Street between 7th and 8th streets north- west, is enjoying a greater amount of patronage than was bestowed upon it the first week. The second week opened last Monday evening with an increased number present, while the attendance every night this weck so far has been most gratifying. Several new items of decoration have been added to the fair room, and it pre- sents a very attractive appearance. Of course the stars and stripes predominate, and the many schemes that have been de- vised to exhibit them are tasteful and ef- fective. Many new articles have been do- vated tas week, and the several tables rere the supplies were almost sold out last Saturday night have been replenished with a better stock. The booths are doing a land office business, and it is expected that all the ables will be cleared by clos- ing time Saturday evening next. The ladies in charge of the tables and their assistants have endeavored in every way possible to secure new articles for this week, and that they have succeeded admirably is evidenced by the appearance of their booths. In this connection the alumrae have adopted an expression of the heurtiest thanks to their friends for aid in this manner to their table and to the fair in general. The friends of Miss Mattie Fitzpatrick are especially grateful for services she has rendered. The merchants of that section of the city in which the Immaculate Conception Ckurch is located have come forward with hearty co-operation and have combined to keep the tables loaded with fancy articles and good things to charm the sense of taSte until the close of the week. Some winners of prizes have been re- perted recently, among them Mrs. H. P. Thomas, who won the handsome topaz and gold rosary at the children of Mary's table; Mrs, Brothern, who won a hand- some china service, and Mrs. Wardwell, the winner of a pair of shoes at the sanc- tuary and choir table. —_——.——- Mary Clancy was today charged before Judge Scott with being an unlicensed pro- or of a restaurant. After a partial , the case was continued until to- morrow. recitation, in St. John’s Church tomorrow, the day of Mr. Gladstone's funeral. The servives wil commence at 4:15, and will include brief ad- dresses by Dr. Mackay-Smitn and Dr. Mc- Kim and a musical service, which, while less elaborate than that in Westminster Ab- bey, will correspond with it in several im- portant particulars. The occasion promises to be a notable one, the request saving leen signed by many representative cit zens. —- Friends Fall Out.
