DIDN'T SNUB THE PRINCE.
The Right Honorable Joseph Chamberlain
Is Not That Kind of n Man.


The Right Hon. Joseph Chamberlain,
ex-radioal home ruler whom peers and
princes now delight to honor, has been
genuinely annoyed by the circulation of
a story that he treated the Prince of
Wales with great rudeness at the sit
tings of the royal commission on the
aged poor, of which both are members.
The tale ran that the prince, on being
asked why he did not complain to the
chairman of Mr. Chamberlain be.
havior, replied:
"You see, | sit between Mr.. Cham
berlain and the chairman, and the lat
ter is rather deaf. "
Mr. Chamberlain has deemed it worth
while to get an authoritative contradic-
ton of this libel published. From this
we gather that though the chairman of
the commission, Lord Aberdare, now
deceased, was undoubtedly deaf, he
rarely presided at the meetings, owing
to i'll health, his place being taken by
Lord Playfair, who is remarkably keen
of hearing, and that anyhow the Prince
of Wales, if offended, would have taken
care to let it be known to the offender
himself The latter argument is more
convincing to those who know his royal
highness and his emphatic way of let
ting his displeasure be known. The
story also shows lack Of know ledge Of
Mr.. Chamberlain character. He is the
last man in the world to give offense tc
any prince, much less the heir to thu
British crown. London Correspondent

Spiritual Nourishmenf and Growth Rev.
d. w. Skellenger, pastor Of the Sixth
Church. Monday evening of this week a
Mems League was organized at Metropoli-
tan Church similar to those already in the
city.
Work was begun on the improvements the
middle of last July, and has continued with
out interruption since then. About $1,000
has been spent, all of which has been sub
scribed and some hundreds extra. The fund
was secured by adopting the monthly pledge
system. On the exterior the walls have re-
ceived several coats of paint, besides pencil
ing. and the woodwork as we'll. The iron
fence which formerly surrounded the
church-yard has been taken down and a
curbing substituted for it. Granolithic
walks have taken the place of the brick side
walk running around the structure and also
within the grounds belonging to the church.
1t is, however, on the interior that the most
noticeable Improvement has taken place.
There the seating capacity. which was for
merly inadequate has been increased by the
addition of a new gallery at the eastern end
of curved shape, and the ends extending
part way DIP the sides. This gallery has a
seating capacity Of $50, making the total
accommodation of the auditorium $50 The
auditorium Is also refrescoed, and there
have been put in new windows of orna-
mental cathedral glass. Electric lighting
has been introduced, and the plumbing COM
pletely overhauled. Hereafter water
motor is to furnish power for pumping the
organ.

Report PrOgress-BiE Smoker Tonight
The preliminary arrangements for the
big carnival Of the Columbia Athletic Club,
to be held at the club house from the 4th

nearly all been completed, and the pros
poets are that Washington will be treated
to one of the most novel, unique and inter-
esting entertainments ever given in the
country. The arrangement of the club
house and its numerous rooms, apartments
and tails gives an opportunity for attrac-
tive and effective display, which is being
taken advantage of in every possible direc-
ton. The consequences undoubtedly will
be that the artistic features of the car
nival will be none the less striking than its
substantial success. There were number
of meetings Of the subcommittee last
night. at which reports of an exceedingly
gratifying nature were received. The COM
mfttee on donations and subscriptions an
nounced that merchants in New York, Bos-
ton, Philadelphia and Baltimore, as well as
the local busiress men, were showing their
interest In the comiI G entertainment In
very substantial manner, and the consign-
ments of goods. as well as cash contribu-
lions, were. already being received. The
committee on booths and privileges report
ed that numerous applications for space
had been received and acted upon. and that
complete allotment had been arranged.
Tonight will be a gala one at the club
house. as the third of the successful and
popular carnival smokers will be given In
the main pariors, and several of the SUBJ
committees will hold meetings previous to
the beginr ing of the fun. Prof Fancfulli
will bring picked orchestra from the Ma
rine Band. and it is expected that his new
march, THE Athlete" which he dedicated
to the Columbia Athletic Club, and with
which the carnival will be opened, will be
played for the enjoyment of those in whose
honor it was composed. There will be reci-
tations and dialogues by Mr.. ]. Barton Mil
Ter and Mr.. Guy V. Collins, comic songs by
Mr.. Geo. O'Connor, piano and vocal solos
by Mr.. Nc Enaney and Mr. ]. ]. Fisher
