D. C., April 10, 1900, It belng the purpose of Organized Labor to secure early closing of the stores, in order to obtain for the clerks additional rest or leisure, the principle was recognized by all merchants, although its expediency dented by a few. And whereas the firm of WM. HAHN & CO., under the Impression that merchants in their lines would not close their stores at the agreed time, reopened their own es- tablishments, and for the purpose of protecting their trade kept thelr stores open Jonger than the prescribed time; And whereas, inasmuch as the movement has become more general, and sad firm of WM. HAHN & CO., bus always been, and {x now, well inclined toward said movement, and the requirements by It: that like firms should be placed on the same basis, having been fully complied with. the said firm of WM, HAHN & OO. has agreed to close ite Stores—begtaning April 16, 1000—at 6 p.m. on week days, and at 9 o'clock p.m. on Sat- urdays. It is, therefore, RESOLVED and DECLARED that the sald firm of “WM. HAHN & H CO.,"" having agreed to the requirements of Orguntzed Labor, is fair and ts recom- mended to the patronage of Organized Labor and its friends. MILFORD SPOHN. E. J.

A reception was tendered Mrs. Julia Lord Hooper of Portland, Me., at the residence of Dr. F. J. Shadd, 901 R street, last even- ing. The occasion brought together the surviving scholars of Miss Julia Lord (now Mrs. Hooper), one of the pioneer teachers, who left a comfortable home and social surroundings to enter upon the work in 1965 and 1866, of educating the colored peo- ple in this city and in the south. The ex- ercises last evening were interspersed with vocal and instrumental music. It was ac- knowledged by those present that whatever success they may have had in life is due largely to the early efforts and the inter- est taken by Miss Lord and her associate teachers. A letter of regret was read from her pupil, Prof. H. M. Brown, one of the teach- ers of Hampton Institute, in which he stated he had traveled in all parts of the world and mingled with many of the people of all countries, but that he had never seen any one who had added so much to his inspiration in an educational line as Mrs. Lord Hooper. Those of her were Dr. F. J Rey. John M. son, Hamilton urviving pupils present add, it . Mrs. Charity Jackson, Mrs Amelia Tilghman, Miss Laura Dyson and Edward W. Turner. Dr. and Mrs. Shadd and the latter's mother, Mrs. Bell, made the occasion a very enjoyable one. At 10:30 o'clock the reception closed. —_+——_ Real Estate Transfers.
