The report of the gas inspector for the
month of December, 1893, giving daily meas
urements oftbe illuminating power of the gas
furnished by the Washington Gas Light COM
pany, and also tho quantity Of ammonia and
sulphur observed in it daily, has been submit
ted to Capt. Greene, assistant to the engineer
commissioner. The report measures from Nov.
81 to Dec. %, inclusive. tho inspection month
not being identical with the calendar month.
The mean Illuminating power of the gas dur
ing this month was 1853 candle power, the
highest 1888, the lowest 1875. The phrase
10 candle power means that . cubic feet of
gas, burning in an argand burner, will give
light in diTusvoness and intensity equal to
IL candles consuming 100 grains Of sperm in
an hour. The average amount of ammonia
present in the gas was 3.75 grains, the highest
amount 1913 grains, and the lowest amount
1873 grains Average amount Of sulphur
present 1l.Sl grains, highest 1S.49 grains,
lowest 100. There were traces of sulphuretted
hydrogen on nineteen days. The average
amount Of sulphur is greater than for any of
the FIVE preceding months, while tho average
amount Of ammonia present is nearly three
times greater.

A social and literary reunion was held at
the residence of Mr.. Hortio King, 7O7 II
street, on Saturday evening last. Prof
Simon Newcomb delivered an interesting ae-
count OF his voyage to South Africa in 1882,
to witness the transit Of Venus. \ descrip-
tion was given by him of the peak of Ten
eriile as seen from the ship on their return
trip at the distance of about one hundred and
forty miles-an extraordinary distance-at
which it could not have been seen but for
certain peculiarly favorable circumstances
an atmosphere of remarkable clcarness, and
the fact that the dark peak was outlined
against sky brghtning with the dawn. As
the sun rose the peak became invisible, other
wise it would have apparently remained in
sight until its summit disappeared behind
the waves. Mrs. Todd, wife of Prof Todd,
of Amherst college, rendered several pieces
on the piano in excellent style. After which
Mr.. Jefferson entertained the company with
some very amusing recitations. Among those
present were Commissioner Edmonds and
wife, DIR. and Mrs. Morris, Prof. and Mrs.
Todd, Miss Ransom, OF Boston; Mr. jefferson
and wife, Mr.. Parker, DIR. Earnest King, Gen.
Hazen, Rev. o. b. rockingham, Mr.. Noyes,

The Right Worthy Grand Lodge OF Good


The Right Worthy Grand Lodge OF Good
TempIars.
In May next the annual session of the
Right Worthy Grand Lodge of the World Of
Good Templars will be held in this city,
which event is looked forward to with much
interest, not only by the Good Templars of
this district and by the Good TempIars all
over the world, but by all temperance and
church people, because this body is rcCog.
niZed as the leader in the temperance move
ment, aud such advance has now been made
by this reform all along tho line as to war
rant the belief that the action of the II. w.
grand lodge ut its session this year will be
such as to more definitely formulate the plan
for the campaign. The X. w. grand lodge is
composed OF about 300 representatives from
ninety grand lodges, representing not
only every state and territory in tho
United States but almost every civilized
country in the world-thc ritual Of the order
being printed in eleven languages. The per-
sonnet of the RW. grand lodge includes many
of the most ADVANCED thinkers of this time,
and embraces the highest dignitaries of the
church, prominent journalists, leading lawyers,
aud in fact representatives of every profession
or trade, except such as have any utilization
with the liquor interests There are several
reasons why the session held here will be at.
tended by u complete delegation from every
grand lodge. As tho representatives will in
very many cases bring their families. and rs
past representatives arc also emitted to
seats and voice in the grand lodge,
they will no doubt very generally
attend and as the neighborng grand lodge
will also avail themselves of the opportunity
to see our city, tho number of visitors will
be very great. To properly receive and en-
terrain them will DO tine duty OF the order in
this district For the purpose OF securing
the necessary means it has been proposed TO
hold fair, for which generous Offers of
costly contributions have been made by man
utacturers and others in different parts Of
the country. Tho greatest enthusiasm pre-
walls among tho members as to the matter,
and a committee from each of the twelve
lodges in the city will meet the G., w. c. r..
Mr.. Kalstrom, this evening at his residence
for the purpose of arranging such details as
can at this time be considered.
