morning. They were welcomed by Jim
Elliott, John Charles, of Baltimore; w. T..

but Mace declined to enter into any ne
gotiations for Slade until Fox, of New

and decided for himself. His desire is to

Last evening Rev. J. l.. Hurlbut gave a
short talk to the members of Parker Circle,
of the Chautauqua Literary and Scientific
Circle, at the Baptist Chapel, corner of Sixth
and A streets northeast, on the origin, aim
and work of the Chuatauqua course Of read
ing, and in reply to numerous questions
gave advice relative to tho method of con-
ducting circle. Parker Circle is the
pioneer of many circles lately formed, and
the interest manifested by its membership
is having good influence, and is inducing
many TO Join the course of reading.
The local circles of the city have united
to have public lectures upon the leading
topics, and DIR. Vincent, the originator of
the circle, will also lecture about the mid
die of March. Among the graduates Of the

lowing from Washington: Rev. j. d..

Death of a Remarkable Lady.

The death of Mrs Sarah Hammond, at
her nephew's, DIR. ]. b. Hodgkins, No. 1910
r street northwest, Tuesday evening, at 7
o'clock, takes from our midst one of the
purest and best women of earth. She was
SO years of age; was only ailing six days
She was perfectly conscious to the last, and
complained only of being tired. The funeral
cortege left for Alexandria this morning.
and the funeral services will be held in the
Methodist Protestant Church there, and
the remains will be inferred in the family
burying ground IN the beautiful cemetery
of Alexandria
Mrs. Hammond was married in Alexan-
dria in her girlhood to a sea captain, who
sailed in few weeks, and while in Liver
pool, England, was thrown from stage
and killed. This early afiiiction chastened
all of her after years. The heart of the
widow and orphan has cause to lament, for
truly many of them can say she was their
best friend. Her aged sister, Mrs. Hodgkins,
who spent more than sixty years with her
sister, and who stood at the bedside of the
loved one, is now in her eighty-seventh
year, hearty and well,

fighting, and the stronger of the two hav-

willing to continue the struggle, drew a

Just in the act of inhicting what might
have proved fatal stab, when the young
lady, observing the smaller boys danger,
darted forward and seized the hand that
held the knife. 1t was sometime before
any one came to the lady's assistance, but
she held on bravely to the would-be assas-
sin, and only released him when the party
assaulted had escaped to a safe distance and
the youthful desperate has been disarmed.
