inent Feature of the Entertainment.
The Universalist Club held a reception at
the Church of Our Father last evening. An
excellent programme had been prepared, and
letters had been sent 10 those interested. The
attendance was very large.
Miss Mccullough rendered a beautiful
song. The applause was quite enthusiastic,
and in response 20 continued calls she gave
another selection. piano solo was then
given by Miss Carrie Jordan. Mics Marshall
gave a selection on the piano which elected
expressions OF pleasure. Rev. DIR. Rogers
congratulated the members of the club on
the attendance. He said that Washington
weather deiied all forecasts, and that yester-
day evening was selected in the hope that it
would be cool. but as usual il was the oDpo-
site. He believes that the selections in clubs
of this order are chosen rather to elicit laugh
ter than for instruction. Those of his club
will be selected TO instruct and enlighten It's
members.
The first reading by Rev. Dr. Rogers was
! entitled Lost and Found" He brought out
all the pathos there is In the poem and made
most effective delivery. He read next the
Pied Piper OF Hamelin." A piano solo by
Miss Parker was much applauded. DIR.
Rogers again began his readings. Owing to
the loss of the book the death scene of Ed
ward IL was substituted for Father Phil. -
Mr.. BUNDLE and Mrs. Corney. selection
from "Oliver Twist - was the last part of the
programme in which DR.. Rogers participated
The interest in these readings was greatly in
creased by the statement of historical facts
connected with them.
The musical part of the reception was
closed by a cornet solo by Mr.. L. S. Tracy,
after.which refreshments were served by the
ladies.
The programme for this season includes
lectures by Rev. James NJ. Pullman. d. D.,
of Lynn, Mass; Rev. C. ST. Eaton, d. D., of
New York city, and Rev. c. E. Nash, d. D., of
Brooklyn; IAN evening with Dickens" by
Rev. A. G. Rogers, d. d.; illustrated lecture
by Miss Schmidt of this city, and paper by
Mr.. Seitz, of New York city.
The object of the club is to promote the
moral, intellectual, and social welfare of its
members. 1t was organized last April, when
the following officers were elected: President,
Rev. DR.. Rogers; secretary, A. G. Williams;
treasurer, L. A. Hills. The membership previ-
Gus to the meeting last evening was 100 New
members are being enrolled every day. and
the officers entertain hopes that the number
may be increased to 200 before the next meet
ing, which will be held during the early part
OF November.

sTREET cLEANING REPoRT.

Supt. 4. G. Mckenzie, of the street and al
ley cleaning department, returned to the
Commissioners yesterday the annual report
of his predecessor of the workings of the de-
partment for the year ending June 80, 1894
approving the same, so far as the statistical
part is concerned regarding the amount OF
work performed.
Regarding the estimates made for expenses
the following revision is submitted: For
sprinkling. sweeping, and cleaning streets
and avenues Sl00,0 900 is asked for, an increase
of $1,000; same for alleys, 80. 600, an increase
Of 81 600: for hand cleaning Pennsylvania
avenue and adjacent streets, $4,000, an in
crease OF $3.50; for laoor on unimproyed
streets and alleys and attending to COM
plants, $50 900, an increase of S3,6S1; for
salaries, $50 0S2, an increase Of 247. so; for
contingent expenses, $4,000, an increase of
5000.
The increases are thus explained. For
cleaning streets and alleys, based upon nat
ural increase OF improvements and Tor neces-
sRry additions TO service; hanG-cleaning. by
addition TO those already on the list now
being cleaned daily, F and G streets north
from Fifth west to Fifteenth west: improved
and unimproved urban and suburban streets
and alleys, increased because of numerous
extensions and lack of present sufficient
service, and by reason of the fact that many
streets now machine swept will have to be
transferred to the hand-cleaned list The
estimate for salaries embraces all supervising
officers Of all grades and includes an extra
inspector for street work.
Concerning sprinkling Of urban and sub
urban streets, Mr.. Mckenzie says he cut them
out of his estimates OF expenses proper as
they do not rightfully belong there, it being
a system yet TO be inaugurated; but he be-
heves the appropriation should be made, par
ticularly for urban streets He urges the
Commissioners to recommend to Congress
that such employees as are now annual in fact
be made so in law. thus placing them on an
equality with other annual employees.

PUBLIC BATHING BEACH.


W. X. Stevens, superintendent of the free
public bathing beach, has rendered to the
District Commissioners an account of his
stewardship He cites that under an order
directed 10 him under date of June %, 1894
Officer Catler spent five days soliciting dona-
tions for repairs to the beach and for run
ming expenses. In that time but S65 was OBJ
tanned, as against $500 last year. The small
amount collected. he says, is attributable to
the belief on the part OF the people that Con-
gress should assist in defraying the expense,
and that if the beach should be closed for
want of an appropriation a general howl
would wake up Congress 10 Its duty.
Prior to the opening, the papers reported
seven cases of drowning in various parts OF
the District in a single month, but in the
three months IN which the beach has been
open he doesn't think there have been four
drownings. The beach was closed the 30th of
September. Not one registered bather was
drowned.
The boatman saved the lives of 10 persons
as against 27 last year. The proportion for
last year is l saved in 1000; this year. in
1850. Order at the beech has been extremely
good. In the District appropriation bill
y 900 was allowed for maintaining the
beach. but as it came too late to become
available. SIR. Stevens recommends that the
money be expended in providing facilities for
ladies and the better class of men bath ers.
He suggests that fifty new houses BE- built
and that thirty-six houses be brought from
the south TO the north end; also that a high
fence be constructed to keep out piiferers
and that another small Office be built and the
The Washington times., 1894-10-04

buildings repaired and repainted, that the
wharves be repaired, that scowload of sand
be added at muddy points on the beach. and
that new lifeboat be purchased. He sug-
gests that 10 cents be added TO the fee, the
payment of which will entitle any person to
the exclusive use of room for one hour, and
that the payment of 25 cents for a single piece
suit shall include the use of a single room.

NoTHlsa 70 WORRY ABOUT.

He Wasn't Disturbed About Little MIS-
take Like That.
A serious blunder occurred in West
Virginia county not long ago. A num-
Der Of the farmers had sustained losses
Of sheep from their respective focks,
and being skeptical as to, the efficiency
Of the law officers one night took the
matter in their own hands. A dozen or
more Of them proceeded some miles
away to the house Of Rehoboth Jem-
son, and Notwithstanding his protesta-
tions of innocence gave him severe
drubbing.
The affair created no little stir, as
Rehoboth was very respectable colored
man who owned snug little farm and
was deacon in the Baptist church. He
had the confidence and esteem of his
white neighbors, who were SO worked
up over the matter that they considered
the expediency Of an investigation that
should lead to the punishment Of the
raiding party.
Within a few days the farmers dis.
covered they had made an awkward
mistake, the guilty party having been
caught red handed and had made full
confession, so being in the main a right
good set Of fellows they decided to offer
balm to Rehoboth for his many wounds.
Three Of their number were designated
q committee, with full powers to act.
and they fastened to the discharge Of
their duty. Old Rehoboth was sitting
in his neat little cabin, with bandaged
head, while his wife was applying q
cooling wash to his lacerated back. The
committee looked foolish and scarcely
knew how to begin, but finally one Of
the number stammered out an apology
and added that they were willing to pay
q reasonable amount as recompense for
his sufferings.
