rlnu.
Yesterday being the anniversary OF the birth
OF Mr.. Strout, assistant Librarian at the Capt..
tol, and also librarian Of the Assembly's Pros
byterian Church, corner OF Fifth and streets
northwest, 1--WE won't give his age, because he
is an old bach) the adult members OF the sun
day-school and the members OF the congrega-
ton, also, determined to celebrate the occl.
sion IN manner that would express their ad-
miration for Mr.. s. as n man and their grail
tude to him for his unwearied labors In build
Ing up the library of the school to Its present
grand proportions. The movement was kept
entirely concealed from Mr.. s., and when he
went 10 the church last evening to busy him
self with his books he found the lecture-room
brilliantly lighted and the congregation flock
Ing In by scores.
About p. M, after securing order, the pas
tor OF the church called MIR. Strout TO the plat
form, and, In few well-chosen words, pre-
sented him with magnificent gold.headed
cane, with the proper date engraved thereon.
For u moment Mr.. =. was overwhelmed with
surprise and glad emotion, but soon recovered
himself sufficiently to acknowledge that his
friends had completely surprised him, and
that he accepted the gift with much thankful
ness. Mr.. Frank LOveridge then presented
him with beautiful ring, present from Mr..
Strouts mother and sisters, who, residing at a
distance from tho Capital, had chosen Mr.. l..
as the medium through which to present their
gift, token OF their loving remembrance oil
After short literary and musical pro.
gramme refreshments were served to oil by
the ladies OF the congregation, who crowned
the occasion with an abundant and apetizing
lunch.
Tho entire AFFAIR was excellently managed
throughout, and proved to be most highly en-
joyable 10 all present.
The congregation also passed resolutions
expressing their high appreciation OF Mrs
Warren Young In aiding In improving the
singing of the Congregation and of tho Sunday
school during the past two years.
We noticed, while taking notes at tho church
last evening, that tho Sunday-school library
OF the Assembly Church has grown until Il
now numbers over 1000 volumes, and al
these, save 200 or 800, have been gathered
through tho labors and care OF Mr.. Strout

The action OF the President In asking the
concurrence OF the Senate in the removal OF
collector wickers, OF the port OF Key West, is
almost unprecedented and causes some dis.
cussion. The law 10 very plainly SGT forth IN
section 1867 OF tho Revised Statutes, which
provides that "Every person holding any civil

BIO appointed by and with the advice and con.
