Has anybody & portrait of David Stuart, one of the Commissioners who laid off the city of Washington? This query went forth last night from the meeting of the Association of Oldest Inhabitants of the District of Columbia, after Dr. Willlam Tin- dall told his assoclates that Charles Moore of the Fine Arts Commission had been striving in vain to find a eness of Stuart. The organization engaged In a brief discussion of the question of whether the Peace monument was dedicated with formal public exer- cises. Vice President Henry L. Bryan. who presided, told the members the monument was completed in May, 1878, but no exercises were held at that time. Two more old newspapers were add- ed to the association’s collection of Journals of by-gone days. One was an extra edition of the Morning Chronicle, published in Washington June 15, 1863, announcing the call of President Lincoin for 100.000 militia. The other was a copy of the New York Herald of April 15, 1865, re- counting the assassination of Presi- dent Lincoln. The papers were given to the Old-| est Inhabitants by Miss Laura O. Friebus, through Capt. George W. Evans. The association unanimously clected W. Spencer Armstrong and Charles E. Ebel to membership.

KAZAN, September 7.—Thousands of miles of ditches bordering flelds of grain have been dug by the peas- ants along the Volga to protect their crops from an invasion of locusts. Partly by this means. and with the assistance of the government. which | used poisoned gas, the grain was ved. The ditches acted as a trap. The locusts crawled into them, whereupon the peasants gathered in crowds, men, women and children, and shov- eled earth on top of the insects. The A. Roberts The Iunfihlfl‘.

When they departed from my home they smiled at me and said, “May blessings rest upon your dome until your days are sped.” The blessings of a pair of bums may have no market price, and yet, when tranquil evening comes, they cut some little ice. For then I view the day that's spent, with retrospective eyes, and having helped a busted gent—the knowl- edge is a prize! When evening's priceless shadows fall it makes one’s bosom bleed, if he, reflecting, can’ recall one kind and friendly deed. One day I give a bo a cup of sparkling Adam’s ale; the next I soothe a wailing pup that has a wounded tail. To those oppressed by deadly fears my cheer-up rede I preach; anon I dry a widow's tears, if haply she’s a peach. One cannot turn upon his heel, to view the day's parade, but he will see a chance to deal some little slice of aid. And when the gloaming starts to gloam, it rids your soul of care, to place your hands upon your dome and paw the blessings there.
