The SAFETY Commit,cc's Rcport.

The safety committee have completed their
labors and Saturday transmitted their fifth and
final report TO the District Commissioners. They
state that by invitation of Professor Baird the east
wing of the Smithsonian was inspected, and the
committee decided that the only way to render
II safe would be to clear out the entire wing and
rebuild of fre-proof material. The Corcoran
building was inspected and should at once be sup
piled with two or more stationary iron ladders
and standpipes, The Columbia building should
be speedily abandoned unfit for the purposes for
which II is used, and, being inllammable aud Old,
would be totally destroyed by fire, which is liable
10 break out at any time In case of fire the yalu-
able records, &c, would be doomed TO destruction
Police Headquarters should also be abandoned,
being old, dangerous, and intlammable, and in
case of fire the valuable archives of the police de-
partment and instruments of the fire alarm service
would be destroyed. The committee submit also
printed report the safety of the Government De.
partments Their report on churches which is
quite lengthy, shows that the buildings have been
carefully inspected and several recommendations
have been made.

WEST WASHINGTON,

At twelve O'Clock Saturday night the water In

the banks were both amusing and interesting
Boys Of all sizes and conditions oflfe from all
parts of the city, congregoted at carly hour near
the Aqucduct Bridge, evidently having had some
intimation as 10 what was about to take place. As
soon as the water was low enough in the canal so
that the bottom was visible, few Of the colored
boys took of their shoes and stockings, and, slid
ing down the bank, began searching for curiosi-
ties. Presently they were followed by others, and
before an hour had passed there were probably
over hundred running up and down the canal,

metate the articles found on the bottom of that
raging canal, Suffice II to say there was little Of
nearly everything, with the exception perhaps Of
n set Of furniture or n sewing machine, and after
examining some Of the conglomer0tcd mass of
odds and ends which were landed on the banks
we would not have been In the least surprised to
have seen said furniture and machine dug out OF

THE oPERATIC ASSOCIATION.
Weeks Performance To re Given at the
National Theatre.

The Washington operate Association, which
has already been before the public since its brief
organization in two operas-viz., The Chimes OF
Normandy" and 1.-THE Smugglers,' in both of
which they were thoroughly suocessful-propose
to conclude the season with an undertaking of
considerable magnitude. The National Theatre
has been secured for the week commencing May
s, and II is intended to reproduce the operas al
ready given, with the addition OF" The Bohemian
GIRL" which Is now IN rehearsal aud perhaps
some lighter operas. IL has been suggested that
Patience" could be given by this organization
with better effect than has ever been seen in this
city. Ed Hay would be glorious BunikOrRC and
John Pugh would make an ideal GrOsucROr
Miss Eva Mills would be admirably adapted to the
role of Patience, and the other solo parts could be
readily cast, while there could be no more at
tractivc troupe of maidcns than can be selected
from the membership of the association. This Is a
suggestion which the society would do well to con-
slider. The Pirates" and even the much abused
but ever. welcome "Pinafore,' could readily be
produced by the association without much re-
hearsal, and the propricty of giving these operas
also might be looked at. A proposition has been
made for the society to sing week In Baltimore
upon very favorable terms, which will be consid-
cred at its next meeting. In the presentation of
its OPENS in May the cast will be probably aug
mented by lady whose rcputa ion and artistic
ability are second TO none upon the operate stage.
