The beautiful hall Of the Sumner school build
ing never contained larger or more appreciatiye
audience than It did on Thursday and Friday
evenings last, the wealth, culture and beauty
among our colored citizens being fully represent
cd. The decorations Of the hall were perfect, the
walls containing elaborate and beautifully-exe-
cuted drawings, the work of Miss Ada Hand and
others, pupils OF the High school. The stsge,
under the manipulations of Mr. T. W. Huaster,
drawing teacher in the colored schools, presented
aperfect picture Of loveliness, the nations en-
blem hanging In graceful iestoons around the
youth and beauty assembled under It's pro
tecting folds, Whish in this instance were the
pupils Of the High school, who, under the guild
ance Of their teachers, gave Tor the dement, OF
their parents and friends, on Thursday and FRI
day evenings q grand concert and rhetorical en-
tertsinnenf with number of tableaa representa-
tions.
the High school fully sustained their well-de-
served reputation In being able to get up an en-
tertainment perfect In every particular, the Sc,
calculated to test fully the musical and oratorcal
powers Of those participating, and in no instance
did they fall 70 meet the full requirement. Tne
apparently into one harmonious sound; the sweet
ness and beauty being materially enhanced oy
the delicate touch and accurate piano accom-
paniment Of Miss Caddie Parke.
The plsying OF Messrs. Fleet and Alston, the
former on the piano and the latter with violin
accompaniment, was the theme Of general admi-
ration, the most dificult pieces being executed
with ease, precision and grace. The feature OF
the evening which drew forth the most expressive
sense Of approval, were the tableau representa-
tions gotten up BY Mr.. T. w. Hunter. The se-
lections embraced some perfect gems, among
which were the "Good Samaritan" crock Of
Ages,n in two scenes; "Christian Graces,"
"Sleigh Ride" and "Faithful Grown" the latter
q marvel Of beauty and perfection; the descent OF
the angel bearing the crown, and depositing It
with perfect accuracy on the head Of the kneeling
and faithful soul.
The ladies and pupils Of the High School pre-
sented, at the close OF the entertainment, Mr.
Hunster with a beautiful silver goblet, the pre-
sentation on the part OF the school being per.
formed By Miss Mamie Syphax in graceful and
neat speech. Mr.. Hunster, though completely
taken by surprise. responded in fitting terms.

TEMPERANCE.
h.sting of Ea.t washington Division.

Ae6I1dk 1dHL Ud5u41k bOA oANASAS1s
This lourishlnR temperance organisation gave
a most novel and pleasant entertainment at their
hall, corner Of East Capitol and Fourth streets
east, last Thursday night to q full house. A few
days ago printed Invitations were sent to friends
Of the division to be present and to bring "a
pound" package. These Invitations were well
responded to, aud many pounds" were the re-
suit. at 7:30 o'clock the hall was thrown open
and well filled. The entertainment opened with
music, vocal and instrumental; and at $50 o'clock
the sale Of the pound packages commenced "at
auction" The amusing features of the enter
tsinment were the selling and bidding. The con-
ditions were that neither auctioneer nor bidders
knew what the packages contained until sold.
Then they were opened and the contents puolicly
announced. Here was fun Some OF the pack
ages contained valuables, others we're worthless,
and the lively contest TO out vie In bidding and
tie curiosity Of the audience run high. When Q
pound Of fine sugar or fine preserved fruits were
opened and contents announced the bidders were
eager to bid on the next package, hoping TO find
something of equal value; and when pound OF
salt, q raw turnip or potato or pound OF coal
was opened the result was ludicrous in the ex-
treme. The.roars of laughter from the audience
as these novel results were announced proved the
genuine amusement afforded. The best Off all
was that the division realized o snug little sum
Of cash from the sales, and take this means TO
thank the donors for the material aid thus rem
dered the organization and the cause.

FIRE DEPARTMENT.
:IhsAnnual Parade and Review saturi

-
The annual inspection and review Of the Dis
trict first department took place Saturday after
noon, at O'Clock, at the Scott square. As the
event was not generally known, the spectators
were not as numerous as they would otherwise
have been, but those present were unanimous In
their praise Of the appearance and working order
Of the department. The different companies, con-
sIsting Of i've engine and one truck company,
formed in line in front OF No. engine houss, on
street, near Seventeenth, and proceeded In single
file along Rhode Island avenue to the Scott
statue, at the intersection Of Rhode Island and
Massachusetts, avenues, N and Seventeenth
streets. At this point they were reviewed by Dis
triot Commissioners Dennison and Phelps, Chief
Engineer Cronin and Assistant Chief Engineer
Drew, of the fire department. Several OF the
engines were drsped in mourning in respect to
the memory OF Vice President Wilson, and the
others were without decoration. The engines
were formed in q column, the hese-carriayes in
the rear, and marched three times around the
statue, after which the men dismounted and the
inspectors passed through their lines, receiving
salute as they passed. The Commissioners ex-
pressed themselves as well satisfied with the ap-
pearance Of the department, and bestowed many
praises upon the efficiency, gentlemanly conduct
and perfect working order Of the men.

Paving Fsnn,yivania Avenue East.

a few weeks ago mention was made OF the fact
that the work OF repsving the north side Of
Pennsylyania avenue east, from Second to
Eighth streets, was commenced by Mr.. Jonathan
Taylor under q contract with the District CON-
missioners. Notwithstanding the late rains the
work has progressed rapidly and Will be finished
in about ten or twelve days. The pavement Is q
concrete one, with broken stone base six inches
thick, binder two inches thick, and over this Is
laid two and half inches Of mastic or top dress
ing, making an entire thickness OF ten and one
half inches. After removing the wooden blocks
Of the DeGolyer pavement, the road bed Was we'll
rolled with thirty i've ton steam roller. When
the first course Of broken stone was laid this roller
was driven over It four or fve times, and the
game process was adopted with the other courses
SO that the pavement when completed Will be one
Of the most substantial and best In the city. As
an evidence Of this the property holders along
that portion Of the thoroughfare express them
selves well pleased with the work. At present
the laying OF the broken stone base is finished
from Second street to the Wallach school build
Ing the second coat to Sixth street east, and the
laying Of the top dressing was commenced on
Thursday, and half the square between Second
and Third streets Is done. To carry out the work,
