Evening Star Bureau, No. 701 King St., Bell Telephone, No. 106, ALEXANDRIA, Va., April 13, 1900. Davis Post, No. 46, G: A. R., held its regu- lar monthly meeting last night in the camp hall on South Fairfax street. The knowl- edge that the resolution for disbanding would come up for final consideration caused a full attendance of members, and there were many guests present from Washington. Capt. J. V. Davis, comman- der, occupied the chalr. The resolution to discontinue the organization was taken up and defeated by a unanimous vote. Sev- eral speeches were mado against the pro- posed dissolution and every member enthu- siastically advocated {ts continuance. The resolution was offered several weeks ago, owing, it is said, to the diminishing number of G. A, R. men in this city. The mere suggestion of dismemberment, however, aroused the spirit of unity among the member: It was decided to-hold the memorial ser- vice at the National cemetery, May 30, at noon instead of 5 o'clock, the hour hereto- fore observed. Committees were appointed to arrange for decorations, music and speakers for this occasion. Reception to Pastor. The congregation of Trinity M. E. Church tendered a reception last evening to Rev. J. A Jeffers, the new pastor. A large audi- ence gathered in the auditorium and a most pleasing welcome was extended to Mr. Jef- fers. On the part of the local clergy, Rev. E. V. Register of the M. B. Church South tendered a cordial greeting. Mr. William Pierpont delivered the address on behalf of the congregation and Mr. Samuel Stokeley spoke for the Epworth League. Rev. Mr. Jeffers responded to the addresses, thanking his hearers for their welcome. ‘Phe occasion ended with the rendition of a musical and Uterary program.

Emp Special Corresp e Evening Star, HAGERS . April 12, 1900. The republicans county have taken the initiative in starting the campalgn for the fall elections, and have fssued a call for the holding of primaries on Saturday, April 28, to select delegates to a county convention to be held in Hagerstown May 1 to choose delegates to the state conven- tion, which will assemble in Baltimore ss May 9.

A strange affliction has befallen Mrs. Bessie K. Lamon, widow of Robert La- mon, residing over the river, opposite Wil- Hamsport. On arising from ‘her bed in the morning she found that she had lost the sight of her left eye during the night. When she retired she noticed nothing wrong with her sight, and as she had no trouble with her eyesight whatever it was {nexplainable. Mrs. Lamon has gone to Washington to consult a specialist. General Superintendent Fitzgerald has issued the following: “One of the require- ments of good service is the payment by employes of the Baltimore and Ohio rail- road of their honest obligations. An at- tempt to avoid them will be considered ufficient grounds for dismissal. Employes who are in arrears for board and supplies are expected to adjust them.” Rey.
