The Three Americas Exposition.

From the New Orleans Picayune.
The motive of the exhibition is primarily to
promote closer commercial intercourse be-
tween the different nations of the same CONT
nent, but also to jointly commemorate an event
that is of equal interest to all the governments
of America. The selection of Washington city
as the location of the exhibition is highly ap-
proprate, as it is the capital of the most inn
portant of the American nations, is convenient
Of access, is the heart of the most populous
portion of the continent, and is besides the
seat Of a government amply provided with
means to defray the necessary expenses.

The really proper way to serve strawberries
nowadays Is with the stems on. Part of small
saucer should have a little mound of powdered
sugar poured into it. and on the other side the
largest and choicest berries obtainable should
be heaped up. Each berry is taken up by the
stem, dipped into the sugar, and eaten from
! the nngers.

The second entertainment in the Stock

Siberian traveller, at City Hall tonight. A
New York Exchange says:
mi. KEENAN, gave some amusing descrip.
ton Of q strangers struggles with the for
midable Russian tongue, and said that po-
likeness in that vernacular meant suicide.
He feared more than once of being found
dead with a Russian word stuck in his
throat, and instead of undertaking to de.
cline verb declined the whole language.
He gave very interesting description Of q
marriage ceremony, told how young people
made love, and a graceful picture Of the
groom kissing his wife. He had seen many
pictures from American illustrated papers In
Siberia, and in a KOssack cottage had no.
ticed a likeness of General Dix set up In a
corner and wOrshipped as saint"
The prelude to the lecture by Grimmer's
orchestra will begin at 100 o'clock.

Aveteran to the Rescue.

At about 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon one
of the Preble House hacks was coming down
Congress street, when the horses took fright
at something and started to run. The driver
pluckily held on, and, being unable to stop
them, gteered for the sidewalk. The right
fore wheel struck the curbstone and the axle
broke short off. Things began to look
ominous as the street was full of people and
the horses were thoroughly frightened. Just
as they started to run. however, Timothy
Reagan, soldier on bis way from Massa-
chusetts to the Togus Home, appeared ON
the scene, manfully seized the horses by the
head and held them until the driver extri-
Gated himself from the relns and came to his
assistance. 1t was narrow escape from a
serious, perhaps fatal runaway accident.

HOME FOR AGED WOMEN.
The Annual Reports and the Election
Of Officers.

The annual meeting of the Home for Aged
Women was held yesterday afternoon. ,s
From the report of the board Of managers
by Miss Harriet S. MeCobb, secretary, we
learn that the change of administration,
which was complete within and without. in
1888, has been successful. The full number
Of inmates is resident at the Home. One has
died, one left for good and sufficient reasons
and three applicants, all deserving. admitted
during the year. Among the attractions Of
the Home arranged the past year are a
flower garden, ia which the inmates can
work a sunny window filled with Towering
plants. The benefciaries would like to
have sewing to do. They need congenial oe-
cupation, and also desire to earn a few dol
lars they may call their own. In conclusion
the managers thank their many friends for
their constant thoughtfulness. The list of
donations for the year shows no dinlinution.
The treasurer, Miss Cornelia M. Dow, re-
nortpd as follows. y
