AUDACIoUs BURGLARS.

One Holds Maryland Farmer I'm His
ParIor While the Other Goes Through
the House.
Mr.. Hiram Jackson, farmer, living about
two miles from Silver Springs, Nd, informed
a reporter of the following queer actions Of
two burglars. He lives on q small farm with
his wife and three children. On Friday night
last, about 2 q. M, he heard a noise in the
front part of the first floor, and ON getting out
of bed and going down he found two men in
the parlor. They were acting in strange
manner unbecoming burglars, and Mr.. jack
son was surprised. He pushed open the door,
making q great deal of noise in doing
so, thinking to frighten off the burglars, but
he was mistaken. Tho festive robbers were
engaged in cOnversing, and when he entered
the room one of them said to him, swell,
| Hiram, where do you keep your vauables?'
| The mans audacity almost stunned Mr., jack
son, but he SUNNI oned up courage enough to
warn them to leave. They did not seem to
be in any great hurry to obey, for, instead Of
leaving, they announced their intention OF
remaining. One of them arose to his feet in
| a short time, and politely invited Mr.. Jackson
to be seated Mr.. jackson declined at first,
but he had hardly done 30 when one Of the
men pushed him into chair and told
him to keep quiet, at the same time flourish
ing revolver threatningly. The other
burglar then proceeded to ransack the house
with the exception of Mrs. Jackson's room
which he did not enter. He soon returned tc
the parlor and informed his pal that there
They then bid Mr. Jackson pleasant good
night and left. Mr.. Jackson has announced

the Armory and the Other at Cosmopol-
itnn HalI--Formation OF the "First
Company"
The Thomason faction of the Union Vet
eran corps "held the fort" last night at the
armory, and held secret meeting. As fast
as those identified with the opposition to
Capt. Thomson arrived at the door, they
were met by guard, who refused them ad-
mittance. This continued until at least
thirty men had congregated on the sidewalk
in front At this juncture it was suggested
that meeting of the opposition be held at
Cosmopolitan hall, corner of Eighth and Il
streets northwest, which was done.
Lieut. M. Emmett Urel, presided, and after
the object of the meeting had been stated
resolution calling upon all line and staff
officers to resign, aud should said officers de-
cline to resign their places be declared vacant,

tary, w. J. Simmons The election of COM

JACKSON GROVE CAMP.
Sunday School Dny-Intercsting Addressed
Upon the Methods OF Instruction.
ypscfdl Letter

Special Lettefs
JACKSON GROVE CAMP, Aug. Gas adver-
tised in the papers and by circulars, to-day
was devoted to tho discussion of questions
touching the work Of the Sunday school.
The various trains brought in but few Wis
itors-to-morrow is looked upon as the day.
At o a. m. Rev. f, T. Tagg gave an interest
ing address on "The Field of Sunday School
Work in tho United States To-day" Tho
speaker stated that the Sunday school is no
longer an experimental is now all impor-
tant He gave statistics showing the i'm
mense growth in this branch of the Christian
work and its beneficial results The future
Of this nation will be what the Sunday school
makes IL. II Is q preventative of pauperism,
drunkenness, and crime. The Sunday
school is destined to supersede all other
methods of bringing members into the church.
At 1880 a. m. the Rev. DIR. Mills, of Washing
ton, delivered an address upon The Inter
national Lesson Leaf Does 1t Meet the De-
mands Of the School2" He dwelt upon its
advantages and the various objections urged
against it. By its use We have, Mt very
small expense. placed within reach of tho
Sunday school the study and experience of
the best talent. Its being used by all the
Protestant Sunday schools of the world was
calculated to promote the efforts of all to
teach the Sabbath school scholars. The
speaker dwelt upon the various objections
but the only one that he thought worth con
sidering was the placing the lesson itself upon
the leaf. This might tend to neglect of the
Bible.
At 2:30 p. m. Rev. d. L. Greenfield deliv'
cred an address on "The Opportunities of 9
Sunday School Teacher" He said that oil
the present methods were of no avail unless
sanctioned by God. He criticised the pres
ent methods, holding that the tendency nov
was toward culture rather than soul saving
He was followed by Revs II. G. Cushing
and w. M. Strayer, who criticised some Of thu
views advanced
Hon. William b. Usilton then was intro
duced as the speaker of the hour upon tn,
subject of Criticism Of Modern Sunda.
School Methods"
The speaker called the attention of his audi
ence to the fact that his subject allowed hin
both to commend and condemn, but that hi
address would rather commend than con
denim. He showed the superiority of thu
modern over the olden methods, and claimed
that the effort should be made to adopt th
methods now in use more to the real nature
of the children.
Prof. II. @. Cushing will preach at 7;3o to
night.
Tho Jackson Grove Camp Meeting associa
tion will meet this evening and elect officer

A special permit has been granted the ex-
curson steamer j. W. Thompson to carry $50
passengers each trip on Sundays between this
city and Washington. Before this permit
was granted she was only allowed to carry
5l5 passengers.
Tho contract for rebuilding the Methodist
Episcopal church in this city was awarded to
A. NJ. Carroll, of Baltimore, who was the
lowest bidder, his bid being $6,137 The
improvements will cost the society in the
neighborhood of $500. The plans and
specifications were made by b. ID. Price, of
Philadelphia. The work will be commenced
Immediately and hurried to completion.
The train despatchers office on the Virginia
Midland road, which has for many years been
located in this city, will soon be moved to

place within two weeks,
Quite extensive repairs will be made i'm
mediately to st, Mary's (Catholic) church, one
aim being to increase the seating capacity of
the building. which is much too small at pres"
ent for their large and increasing membership.
The two main anchors for the four-mast
schooner VIM. T. Hart have arrived. One

Starving Opera Singer.

No doubt the operate stage offers as great
contrasts in respect to remunera tion as can be
found in any walk of life. During the re-
cent performance in Algeria of an Italian
company there was such u wearsome delay
after the second act the audience made loud
demonstrations of disgust. Thereupon one
Of the actors appeared before the scenes and
unable to go on with the performance, The
manager, he said, had run away with all the
receipts, leaving the singers in abject misery.
The only member of the company who had
tasted food that day was the prima donna,
and she had breakfasted on II slice of bread
and an onion. This statement aroused the
indignation of the audience to high pitch,
and several men jumped upon the stage in
the hope of finding the manager concealed
somewhere and administering to him u lesson
which he would have remembered the rest
of his life.
