Last evening st. Paul's English Lutheran
Sunday school, Rev. DR.. Domer, pastor, and
Lucius d. Alden, superintendent, held its usual
Christmas anniversary celebration in the main
auditorium of the church, corner 18th and H

that many left unable to gain admission. The
exercises consisted of a musical and responsive
service, prepared by Miss Emma Pitt of Balti-
more. Miss Grace L. Fox presided at the or
gan, assisted by Prof. J. I. Rueckert, violinist,
and VIM. A. Domer. cornetist There were
also Rotations by the children and presenta-
ton OF gifts to favored few. Miss Mollie L.
Davis was the recipient on the part of her
class-the infant department of the school
of a handsome onyx table with charming vase
resting thereon. The superintendent. Mr.. AL
den, was also presented with $40 gold piece
in such way as to surprise him and amuse the
audience as well. Among the pleasing features
of the evening the solos OF Mrs Eualle
Domer Rheem and little Susie Corcoran, the
smallest member of the school. The report of
the secretary, VIM. A. Domer, shows the school
to be i'll tiourishing condition. The number
on the roll lis 295, the average attendance 1893.
The roll of honor for attendance and for being
able to give all the titles of the lessons and
golden texts for the year was large On the
former roll was the name of Mr.. Charles krause,
who has been present every session of the
school for nine consecutive years. The treas

Dom -edro's Property Not Confiscated.
DOM PEDRO'S WIFE.
She Was a Favorite Of the Brazilian
People.

The death of the ex-empress OF Brazil will be
attributed to the severe misfortunes that re-
Gently befell her husband and family. AS long
ago as 1876, when Dom Pedro came to this
country, the empress spent most Of her time
IN New York under the care of physicians. At
the opening of the centennial exhibition in
Philadelphia the empress escorted in the
procession by President Grant Last year il
was the poor health of the emperor that led
the royal pair to make another journey to
Europe, but his wife's health was by no means
good. No doubt she sustained permanent in
jury to her health when the republican lead
ers babe the imperial family pack up and
leave the empire. 1t was O'Clock on the
morning OF the revolution that they wero
visited at the palace of Petropolis and were
hurried out into the night air to the docks,
where they embarked for Lisbon. arriving in
the Tagus on the 9TH instant. The ex-empress
said afterward: Il never will forgive those
republicans for their rough treatment OF me.
Dom Pedro has been saint on the voyage,
attending our suffering grandchild and show
ing us an example OF moral coura ge and pa
thence, cheering us and teaching us wher elm
true greatness lies" She said her fayorite
reading during the voyage had been 1.-The
Life of ST. Vincent de Paul and His Maxims."
More recently she received a severe blow in
learning that all her jewels were stolen during
the revolution. In the collection were COM
pr,sed the finest Brazilian diamonds
The empress, whose full name was Thereza
Christina Maria of Brazil. was the daughter Of
Francisco l, king of the two Sicilies. She was
born March IA, 1922, and married to Dom
Pedro whose senior she by about three
years, Oh May 30, lS43 The empress thus dies
in her Sixty-eighth year. The Countess d'Eu
is the only one OF her two daughters to survive
her.
In Rio Janeiro the news OF the death OF the
ex-empress of Brazil came a great shock to
the people, monarchists aud republicans alike.
The regret is very general, for she was greatly
loved, and her charities and good works were
innumerable. She was. in fact he'd in
higher estimation than Dom Pedro himself.
1t is generally admitted that she was scrupu-
lous In avoiding interference in political af-
fairs. though in ali things that the emperor did
she took the deepest interest. She had been
empress forty seven years. having arrived at
Rio Janeiro September 3, 1912, when she was
received with magnificent ceremonies and the
greatest cordially on the part Of the BRAZIL

STRUCK BY THE TRAIN.
Serious Accident at an Unprotected
Crossing on the Metropolitan Branch.

The unprotected crossing of the Metropolitan
branch of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad at
boundary street was the scene of another acct
dent this morning. There are no gates at the
crossing and, it is said, there is no Waterman
on duty there in the morning until after 6
O'Clock. There have been several accidents
there. One terminated fatally, a milk man
named Sherman being struck by a passing
train, when his wagon was shivered into tooth :
picks and he was killed. This morning
the accident was not a fatal one, although the
victim is in a serious condition He is a col
ored deaf mute named Henry Carter and lives
with his wife and three children at No. 1917 4th
street northwest. He is employed at the works
OF the Washington brick machine company.
He left home this morning about 5 o'clock to
go to work. The wind was blowing at the time
and II was very dusty. He walked through Z
street and reached the Boundary Just
west of the railroad track. From there
1t was direct route to the brick yard. Ii is
thought that he must have turned partially
around TO avoid the dust when the train struc
HIM. He was struck on the left side and throw
to the ground. His left arm was badly mashed.
his shoulder was cut and there were several
cuts and bruises about his head and body.
de managed to get up and was trying to
make his way back to his own home when
he was seen by citizen. Word was sent
to the second precinct station and Policeman
Daley went in the patro! wagon to remove the
sufferer. The officer found him being cared
Tor by citizen, and removed him 10 Freed

HIS arm was SO badly injured that ii will prob

BOYS FOR THE NAVY.
A Small Appropriation Needed to Pay
Necessary Expenses.

Agent O'Neill of the humane society is en-
deavorlng to have the Commissioners ask for
an appropriation to defray the expenses of put
ting boys in the navy. The boys referred to are
generally youths who are orphans and have no
home, or strangers VINO have been tramping
and who reach here without a penny or
friend, and who SO into the navy as their last
resort to keep out of prison. Among them are
many worthy boys, who, with a fair chance,
may become good citizens. There Is an ex-
pense attached to the formalities of putting
these boys in the navy. There is a magistrates
fee of about IS cents for each one and the
register OF wills is entitled to fee OF nearly sc.
Justice Wilson has been performing magis-
terial services free of cost and Register
ClaSett has not charged his legal tee Agent
ONeill now has thirty-seyen such boys IN the
navy and only three of that number have de-
serted.
Il never suspected that one boy in the crowd
would desert" said Mr.. O'Neill, speaking to a
STAR reporter. He was first-clasS boy and
was excellent at song and dance When he
went in the navy the officers and privates were
glad to get him because they thought they had
a theater and circus thrown in. He left here
and went as far as Newport, where he deserted.
The work of putting friendess boys in the navy
should not be dropped because of the lack of a
few dollars. 1t is something that is good both
for the boys and the District. 1t puts them
where they can work and relieves them of be-
coming a charge upon the District"
