GAY WITH BUNTING.

Elaborate Preparations Being Made IN
Washington for tho Reception OF the
knights.
WASHINGTON, Oct with flags and
bunting everywhere Washington has as
sumed its holiday attire for the Knights
1emDlsr triennial conclave. The mer-
chants Of the city are sparing no pains or
expense in the matter OF decorations. The
view on Pennsylvania avenue from the
Capitol to the Treasury Department Is
pretty one All the hotels are decorated
extensively, and the great pillars of the
Treasury building ara wrapped with bunt-
ing.
The decorations Of the city are
prettier than or the occasion of a Presi-
Dental nomination. They are more
highly colored, richer and diversified
The somber black. indicative or chiv-
alric courage, and the pure white,
emblematic OF gentleness, commingle at
every step with the deep red cross, the
sign of the crusade era This is
to be the greatest Knights Templar
cOnclave ever held The attendance
promises to be larger, and the auspices and
surroundings are more pleasant The at
tendance OF Knights and their friends is
too great to permit the use of names or
much localization for States Although
every State has It's headquarters every one
appea-s to be going il on his own hook,
and it is almost impossible TO find man or
woman
The programme in brief for the week Is
as follows:
Tuesday-Graud parade; escort Of Grand
Encampmeat TO Masonic Temple; excursion
OF Potomac.

drill; excursion 10 Mount Vernon; reception

The prisoners said that st about l o'clock
IA the morning they heard screams from

saloon and, rushing up there. found a man
standing IN the dark. They pounced
upOn him, slugged him. and pitched
him down stairs and out the

AL sorts of conflicting stories are flying
about as 20 the facts in the assault II is
claimed that Slattery had been drinking il
Klosterman's saloon; that he went out and
made improper advances to Mrs Kloster-
man and was thrown out OF a secOnd-story
window: that the fall rendered him un-
conscious, and that while IN that
condition he was relieved OF his diamonds.
Captain Siattery lost his wife by death
some months ago. and his friends assert
that since her death he has shown evidence
OF insanity. He is known TO have taken
large doses OF chloral of late and ia sup
posed TO have been wandering about aim
lessly when assaulted
Captain Slattcry recovered consciousness
and when asked for a statement said he
was going over to Wash street 10 see a man
named Harris, who was formerly ia his en-
ploy, when he was struck in the back OF
the head. Beyond that he claims to know
nothing 1t is thought by the police that
Captain Slattery's condition was primarily
responsible for the occurrence. The great
est puzzle is who got the diamonds
