A very prominent ex-member of Congress and one of his constitu- ents seemed to have met atthe house of @ woman who is infatuated with the congressman.

Hot words en- sued and a fight was about to be entered into, but for fear of creat- ing a scandal the affair -was hush- edup. Both men have on war paint notwithstanding. —__-—-____ DELEGATES TO THE B. M. C. The following delegates from the different Odd Fellow organizations are as follows: J.M. C.Crammill, No. 1437, P. N.

Presuming that she had been imposed upon, hence her resignation. Just before the board adjourned Dr. Francis, a trustee of the 7th division, called the attention of the board to a proposed exhibition which has been ordered in sion without his autnority orthe knowledge of the board, and want- ed to know whether any such au- thority had been given. It was ascertained that Trustee Cornish, a trustee of the 8th school division, in conjunction with the colored superintendant, had order- ed this exhibition without the authority of the board, at a time when preparations should be made for the examinations. Mr. Cor- nish said that it was his intention to have sent the board an iuvita- tion.

SOUTH WASHINGTON NEWS. At the ministers meeting at the Zion Baptist church, F st, on Mon- day morning last, it was voted that on Monday morning next, the 18th, the question for discussion will be local gambling in the District, the violation of the Sunday law and indisposition of the police force to inforee obediency thereto. The conference held at the room of Bro. 8. 8S.

They then adjourned with subject to the call of the president. Most of the churches throughout the city had funeral services on Sunday last, which is generally complained of by the ministers as uncalled for burdens. The Washington Bre was fully indorsed by the conference as the strongest, best and most defensive newspaper to the interest of the race in the city; and as evident assurance of its support all present who were not subscribers, subserib- At the regular representative meeting of the Sunday School Un- ion, held at the rooms o evening last, it emphatically declar- ed against excursions as both im- practible and ruinous as regards a benefit for any good results, there- fore instead, it was decided to give the usual annual picnic at Vannes Park, on a day yet to be named. To the memory of Mrs. Maria ‘Burnet, by Mrs. Lizzie Gantston: ‘tA pleasant sister from us is gone, a voice we long heard is si- lent, a vacancy is in our church, made by the immortal highland. God in his wisdom doeth all well. though we are left oneven, and while her body mouldering lay, her soul rests safely in heaven.” A quite complexed report comes to this office from East Washing- ton, which says that Mr. J. M. Dor- sey, who attended the Democratic National Convention from this city to St.Louis, became so completely converted that he returned home and joined the Ebenezer A. M. B. church on Sunday night last. That is one vote given for the W.C. T.U.

This system is peculiar to this corset, and is patented. ‘This, with the manner of cutting and cording ensures Comfort, whieh every lady kuows is so important and desirable. It is rightly named “Comfort Corset.’’ Don’t let any other corset be worn if you value health, comfort and a perfect fit. Sizes for miss- es as wel! as ladies.
