dump them into the stream. Judge

must use reasonable means to prevent
the dow of tIilings into streams where
others would be materially injured

a meeting called for the purpose of bring
ing together the republican politicians from
all the various local legislative districts,
and those who were candidat ties for the posi-
ton of delegate to the next republican ma
ticnal convention. The call for the meeting
stated that it was the object to discuss

meeting was for the purpose of sounding
the candidates, and he suggested that they
be heard. DIR. c. B. Purvis, Daniel Murray.

declared that Lawyer Holland was
ashamed of his race, stating that he had
advertised in the daily papers for a white
servant, and proceeded in other ways to
score the attorney. The latter retorted de-
claring that Carson was unfit to represent

time The meeting did not adjourn until

Many False Alarms.

Last night keyless fire-alarm box No. 124
was pulled by some unknown person, and
when'the firemen reached Pennsylvania ave-
nue. and It'll street they found that there
was no fire. The individual who had turned
in the alarm was not to be found. Because
Of the frequent occurrences Of this kind the
police have been on the lookout for the vio-
lators Of the law. 1t was while responding
to one of these false alarms of fire that one
of the best horses in the department was
so badly disabled that it had to be taken
out of the service.
Chief Paris is growing tired of having the
horses make SO many trips OF this kind, and
unless it is stopped he will recommend that
the keyless boxes be removed.
In other cities there is a system Of keyless
boxes said to be much better than those in
use here.
The turning of the crank only opens the
box and in doing this so much noise is made
that in the time consumed before the alarm
can be turned in some one will undoubtedly
be attracted, and it is almost impossible for
boys and others to amuse themselves in this
way without being caught.

BROTHERHOOD MASS MEETING.
st. Andrew Delegates Report ON the
Louisville Convention.

81. andrew Delegates Report ON the
Louisville Convention.
The attendance at the late convention Of
the Brotherhood of st. Andrew at Louis
Vile was small, compared with other con-
ventiops of the order; this being especially
the case in regard to the delegation from
washington. OF the twelve gentlemen rep
resenting this city nearly every one was
present at the special meeting of the BROTH
erhood held last evening at st. Luke's
Church, corner of Madison avenue and 18th
street, and they made as thorough reports
as much larger delegation would be able
to make. The evening was opened by q
lsiness meeting at 7:3O o'clock, at which
no business of importance was transacted,
most of 1T being reserved until the next
meeting. Secretary Rolla p. Currie, who
represented Ascension chapter, gave a gen.
eral IDEA of the work that was done at
Louisville, and finished his remarks by
showing how good many lessons the con-
veption taught could be profitably applied
to this city. Mr.. Currie was followed by
Messrs. Howell of Epiphany, Davis Of st.
Johns, West Washington; Blackstone CT
Grace, South Washington; Paret of Epiph-
any, Rev. Alexander NJ. Rich of Trinity
and President Perry B. Pierce, all of whom
told about the features that most impressed
them Individually.
Rev. Mr.. Rich delivered a particularly
impressive address, in which he stated that
IL the opinion of many of the foremost men
at the convention the great question which
the church will be called upon to grapple
with and is, in fact, already discussing, ia
the attitude of the church toward the social
problems of the day. Mr.. Rich emphasized
the need of extending the hand of fellow
ship toward the laborer. Everybody is
aware that the Brotherhood of st. Andrew
ewes Its existence to the efforts Of a num-
Der OF young men of st. James Church.
Chicago, headed by James L. Houghteling;
but very few are the number Of those who
know that the origin of the brotherhood
was practically in drunkard. Mr.. Pierce
said that such. however, was the case as
Mr.. Houghteling stated to the convention,
and that the movement had its origin in
the fact that the rector of St. James had
been trying to reclaim a certain drunkard
for some time but finally giving up in dis
couragement, he turned him over to the
young mems Bible class, to see what they
could do with him. The men to the number
OF twelve helped him in every way possible,
and, after hard work, succeeded. The man
reclaimed was found to be an Englishman,
man of birth and education, and he
stated that when he was a young man in
England he belonged to a body of young
men who called themselves the Brother
hood Of Andrew and Phillip, and engaged
In the same work that the young men VINO
were trying to help him were doing. The
movement thus indirectly suggested by the
drunkard resulted ultimately in an order
of 1900 men, scattered all over the world
but all united in the same work.
