The Reign of Peace.

THE CALL FOR AN ARBITRATION CONVENTION TO
BE HELD IN THIS CITY.
The Worlds arbitration league has issued a
call for a convention to be held here September
l, 1889, for the purpose of formulating meas
ures leading to the establishment of all needed
reforms that will hasten universal peace and
harmony. The call says
This conference is preliminary and prepa-
ratory to the approaching elimination of the
aims and efforts of the worlds arbitration
leagues and peace societies. by the true means
of educating every nation to the self-evident
fact that an enormous benefit to mankind would
ensue by the beginning of common and grad
ual disarmament in 1892, when a great cOnvo-
cation OF the worlds philanthropists shall as
semble at Washington on the anniversary of
the discovery of America, and thus not only
aid in the establishment of arbitration to
settle differences between men and nations.
but, it is believed, will eventually result in
bringing to every nation all other great meas
ures necessary to inaugurate the reign of uni
versal justice and finally of universal brother
hood"

A NEW RACE TRACK.
The Highland Clubs Grounds to be

The troubles which have manifested them
selves in the jockey club and the National Fair

Of Willard's hotel Among those present were

presided, and Mr.. Hibbs was secretary. twas
really q meeting Of the Highland club, but DO
many Of the new members have been identified
with the jockey club that it was question as
to which of the two had swallowed the other.
The purpose Of the meeting was to make q
few radical changes in the bylaws by which
the scope of the Highland club would be
broadened 80 az to make it a patron of athletic
sports generally. The committee which had
been charged with the duty of making these
amendments made their report and It gave
rise to considerable discussion. The sense of
the meeting was that the amendments were not
sufficiently liberal or explicit, 80 they we're re-
turned to the committee with a request that
they change certain paragraphs and report
them to the club at its meeting next Monday
Mr.. W. B. Hibbs resigned his position as Sec
rotary to the organization and nominated Mr..
W. A. Fenwick as his successor. Mr.. Fenwick
was eiecteu. anu the meeting then ADJOURNED.
Members of the club are very emphatic in
their declarations that they are not endeavor-
ing to antagonize any similar local organiza-
ton. They say there is plenty of room in this
vicinity for more than one racing track, so they
propose to add to the number. They are anx-
ious, they say, to work in harmony with the
authorities Of the Ivy City track.
The Highland club property consists at pres
| emit Of 65 acres of land, about 81 miles from
the city, on the Washington branch of the Bal
timore and Ohio railroad. Here the club pur-
poses laying out mile track and erecting the
necessary buildings. fine clubhouse and a
stable-the latter to accommodate 200 horses
are among the projected improvements. Ten
mis- courts and a bicycle track have also been
decided upon, and the club will make a vigor-
Gus effort to make its property the local Mecca
OF all lovers Of athletic sports.
