Catholic MEETS DEATH IN THE WATER Dorris Padon, an Artilleryman, Drowned at the Eighth Street Wharf. Would Have Been Muxtered Out Te- morrow—Coroner Gives: Certifi- cate of Accidental Death. Pador recelved an artilleryman, who was an honorable discharge tomorrow, was drowned t night or early this morning. His body was found near the foot of Sth street southwest about 6:30 o'clock this morning, when the dead wagon was summoned and the body was removed to the morgue. Later the military authort- tles hed the body removed to the Washing- ton barracks. Unie relatives otherwise direct the body will be buried at Arlington. Coroner Carr gave a certificate of death from accidental drowning, as there was nothing in the case to indicate that there had been foul play. Henry M. Wagner, who is employed in Forsberg & Murray's machine shop at the Sth street wharf. saw the body of a man floating in the water this morning when he went to work, and notified the police and military authorities. The body was soon taken from the water. Native of Virginia. Padon was about thirty years old and was a native of Virginia. A brother of his lives in Norfolk. For some time he had been stationed on a houseboat belonging to the Smithsonian Institution and located near the scene of the fatal occurrence. Yes- terday he began making preparations to leave the service by surrendering part of the government property that was in his possession. He had made arrangements to go into business, and it is stated he was to have been married soon. About 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon he was seen to leave the boat. He attended on the theaters last night and it was late when he started on his re- turn to the boat. The gang plank leading from the wharf to the boat is a narrew one and walking on it Was made difficult be- cause the boat is much lower than the wharf. The er between the bank and the craft is shallow, however, and it is deemed singular that the unfortunate man was unable to save himself from drowning His watch had stopped running at 1: o'clock, and t is believed to be the time he fell overboard. A small amount of money papers, besides his ch a found ‘in hi: to from have the service in the river late and several d_ chain, were brother was pocke notified of his death. ly the fun- NEW SPRING GLOVES, $1 UP. eral will occur tomorrow All styles and colors, for street and even- —_—>—_ ing wear—for ladfes, misses and men—fitted A General Invitation. and Kept in repair for one r.

He is to meet the world as represented at the Paris exposition and scattered about Europe sightseeing, and is to play to aggregated millions as the representative American di- rector presiding over the representative American band organization. There are some other nationalities represented in the organization, it is true, but not many, and as an institution, conceived, controlled and maintained, it is a product of the new world and belongs to it. As such it will be put to the test. A few more Sousa concerts are yet to be given in this country before the big band sails away, and one of them will take place at National Theater on next Sunday evening. Sousa has arranged a special program for this concert which abounds in characteristic features. The sale of seats is in progress at the box of- fice. MAY IRWIN AT NEW NATIONAL.— Next Monday night May Irwin comes to the New National Theater with her new play and her new songs. Her engagement this year will mark the introduction of another of her popular entertainments in her pro- duction of “Sister Mary.” It is a new play by Gten MacDonough, the author of “Kate Kip,” in which Miss Irwin met with success last year. As the central figure in “Sister Mary” she is said to be doing the most en- tertaining work of her career. Her new songs, and there are lots of them, are rapidly springing into popularity. Their grotesque humor and equally grotesque negro expressions ure things to be remem- bered and laughed over for a Jong time to come. In her company are Herbert Gresham, James F. Callahan, George A. Beane, Charles Prince, Roland Carter, Rus- sell Temon, Queenie Vassar, Louise Rial, Aileen May, Madelon Temple, Lillie Lawton, Marie Milward, Madeline Anderton, Lulu Hesse and others. In “‘Sis- ter Mary” Miss Irwin is going to attempt something in which she has never appeared on the stage. The advance sale opens to- day.

There is no need to speak of Herbert by His esauistt Gate “The Jane Burby, way of introduction. dies and stirring chorus numbers \ Wizard of the Nile,” “The Idol's Eye” and “The Serenade” have made his name famil- jar to all music lovers. Suffice it, there- fore, to say that he considers his music in “The Ameer” the very best of his creations. The libretto is by Kirke La Shelle and Fred M. Ranken, two young writers of promise. The story of “The Ameer” is sald to teem with situations for Daniels of a side-gplitting character. Mr. Daniels’ sup- port is understood to surpass any of his His company numbers over sixty people.

The announce- ment was made that tWo endings would be given, and the audience was requested to remain and see both and express a prefer- ence. The first ending was the consistently tragic one, both lovers being left dead. In the second ending the breath upon the pol- ished surface of a sword showed that they were not dead, although they seemed so. The audience by holding up hands signi- fied a decided preference for the happier ending.

KNEISEL QUARTET. —It is an easy task to write a review: of the concerts of the Kneisel Quartet, for it is only necessary to say that the musie was, as always, of the best character and the playing‘ well-nigh perfect. It Is» indeed, a delight to realize that this country has a string quartet Whose performances are equal to the most famous of the old world, and that musical culture has so far progressed in this coun- try as to give ample and affectionate sup- port to its work. Yesterday's concert at the Hotel Raleigh presented no exception to the ordinary rule. The program pre- sented a striking and well-balanced con- trast between the marked rhythms, the sportive feeling and the Norse folk-char- acter of the quartet in G minor, op. 27, by Grieg, and the serious, yet eerene, classical- ly constructed quintet by Brahms in F ™inor, op. 88, while the two were separated and yet joined in sentiment by the ever lovely theme and variations from Beet- hoven’s quartet in A major, op. 18. It was in the work of Brahms, requiring a pro- found knowledge of musical form and deep insight into the feeling of this great genius. who carries absolute music into regions of expression untrodden by any but the lofti- est musical minds, that the quartet exhib- ited its greatest achievement. It was read by Mr. Kneisel and his associates with complete mastery and with such entire un- derstanding that the hearers were able to realize the master's utmost thought. It is a high tribute to the character of the audi- ence that they went away deeply impressed by the meaning of the work. This concert concludes the eighth season of the work of the quartet in Washington. THE BISCHOFF CONCERT.—The third Bischoff concert of the nineteenth season was given last evening at the Congrega- tional Church, 10th and G streets. There was an exceptionally large attendance. By reagon of the length of the program no encores were allowed; a rule which the au- dience in one or two instances endeavored to violate, but unsuccessfully. The pro- gram consisted of twenty-two numbers, those. who participated being the follow- ing: The All Souls’ Church Quartet, consisting of Mrs. H. Clay Browning, Mrs. J. F. Oyster, Mr. Horatio Wrench and Mr. Henry Kaiser; and Miss Alice Kimball, Miss Mat- tie V. Wade, Mr. J. W. McMichael, Mrs. J. K. Depue, Mr. J. Walter Humphrey, Miss Helen BE. Rowe, Mrs. Henry Bacon, Melissa Belle. Farrell, Miss Elizabeth Wahly, Miss Rae Rannells, Miss Bertha Bieber, Miss M. Adelaide Lynham, Mr. Douglass G. Miller, Miss Edna Scott-Smith, Miss Virginia Powell Goodwin, Mrs. Elsie Bond Bischoff, and Dr. J. W. Bischoff, or- ganist and director. The fourth Bischoff concert of the sea- son will occur Tuesday, April 24. It is an- nounced that the cantata, “The Ancient Mariner,” by Barnett, written for chorus and quartet of solo voices, will be pre- sented at that time. The first part of the concert will consist of a short miscellaneous program. It will also include a reading by Major Tweedale, with organ accompani- ment by Dr. Bischoif. LECTURE ON LIQUID AIR.—The lec- ture on lquid alr to be delivered as the concluding lecture of the ¥. M. C. A. course at the First Congregational Church, Monday evening next, will be one of the most interesting selentific demonstrations seen in this clty for many years.

He wanted to lance the sore, but I would not Jet him, and cont'nued giving him medicine for about four months, when the bunch broke in two places and be- came a running sore. Three doctors said it was scrofuls, and each ordered a blood med- feine. A neighbor told me of a case some- What Uke our baby’s which was cured by Hood's Sarsuparilla. I @ecided to give it-to my bey, and in a short while his health im- proved and his neck healed so nicely that I stopped giving him the medicine. The sore broke out again, however; whereapon I again gave him Hood's Sarsaparilla, and its per- sistent use has accomplished a complete cure.” Mrs. NETTIE ee: 47 K st. ne.
