The display at the festival and avn party

The decorations were of themselves a
superior feature, the rich colors blending
most harmoniously land the entertainment
afforded was first class. The weather was
all that could be desired, and the attendance
was simply immense.
Some special attractions were Master
Sproesser, the champion boy dancer of the
District, in the fishers hornpipe dance, fol-
lowed by little Miss Barron, in highland
fling, and Master Charlie Brelsford in the
Jockeys hornpipe. These last are pupils
OF Miss Mamie Sproesser, and last nights
performance was their first appearance be-
fore a public audience.
The tables were well patroniZed. The
largest on the grounds, that of the Ger
aldine Dramatic Club, was splendidly deco
rated with green and red as the dominant
colors, and covered with a huge American
flag. A mammoth deer's head, brought as
trophy from Montana by one Of the club
members, surmounted the center entrance.
The Gonzaga College table, supe rim

other pills. Hence, their great popularity
with sufferers from habitual constipation,
piles and their attendant discomfort and
manifold arrangements. The Pellets
are purely vegetable and perfectly harmless
in any condition of the system. No care is
required while using them; they do not
interfere with the diet, habits or occupa-
ton, and produce no pain, gripping or shock
to the system. They act III a mild. easy and
natural way and there is no reaction after
ward. Their help lasts.
The Pellets cure biliousness sick and
bilious headache, dizziness, costiveness, or
constipation, sour stomach, loss of appetite,
coated tongue, indigestion, or dyspepsia,
windy belchings, heartburn" pain and
distress after eating, and kindred derange-
ments of the liver, stomach and bowels
In proof of their superior excellence, it can
be truthfully said, that they are always
adopted as a household remedy after the
first trial. Put up IN sealed, glass vials,
therefore always fresh and reliable. One
little Pellet " is laxative two are mildly
cathartic. AS dinner pill - TO promote

consumption could not be separated in
the mains from that wasted or otherwise
used, and fully three quarters OF the
water supply OF the District wOud be
unnecessarily filtered. 1t is therefore
thought that sedimentation, for the pres
ent, at least, should be reIied upon to
purify the water supply
The work of raising the dam d Great
Falls. which is to increase the water
supply in the reservoir, is not yet under
way, but stone is being quarried in large
quantities and carried TO a place conven-
lent for use when operations are begun.
At present there is no really great need
for the increased height of the dam. as the
water supply in the reservoirs at all times
is only few inches below the flow line
With the increased capacity for the
storage of water that viii be afforded
by the new reservoirs, however, the i'm
provements on the dam viii be a necessity.

WOODWORK MADE F1REPRooF.
New Process Adopted for Use on the
Interior of Warshtps.

Interior of Warships.
AS the result of experiments running
through three months at the Boston navy
yard, conducted by Naval Constructor
Hanscom. the Construction Bureau has at
last succeeded in finding a means of render
ing the woodwork Of the interior of men,
ofwar fire proof.
Thesap ofthe wood diSeXtractedin in vacuum
in large iron tanks and the pores of the
wood are then filled under heavy pressure
by q chemical composition of bOraX
boracic acid, and muriate and sulphate OF
ammonia. Thus treated the wood may be
subjected to flame without taking fire.
The color and texture OF the wood is un-
altered and none of the desirable qualities
are impaired.
The same process may be used to fire
proof cloth fabrics, such as spare sails, ham,
mocks, ropes, and all of the material going
into ship of war. The Construction
Bureau thinks so well of the process that it
has recommended that the department.
adopt it and fit out all of the new ships
with woodwork so treated instead of
totally abandoning woodwork in favor
of compositions of cork and other sub
stances.

The Talk of the Town.

In conversation yesterday with one of the
largest advertiseqrs in this city in regard
to the effective methods of advertising used
by some of ourleading merchants, he called
my attention in particular to the methods
adopted by the Tuxedo Company and said
that without doubt their offer of giving
solid gold watches away was princely one
and one which he very much doubted had
ever before been equaled. On leaving him
l at once proceeded to the office of the
Tuxedo Company, No. 623 F street north
west, as my curiosity had been aroused to
such a pitch that l could hardly believe
what / had heard, but after an interview
with their manager, all my doubts as to the
genuineneSs of their offer were set at rest.
1t seems that a large importer of watches,
wishing to secure some land at Tuxedo, and
not having the ready cash, offered them
seventy-five sold gold watches, both ladies'
and gentlemen's size, in exchange for the
land he had selected At first they did not
wish to accept his offer, but on second con-
sideration agreed to take the watches. and
give one to every purchaser of lots at their
beautiful suburb I have never heard of
this offer being equalled and it makes it all
| the more princely when one considers that all
they have to do to get a watch is to
purchase home site from them, Which they
can secure from $40 and up, either for
cash, or on liberal terms of credit. Nine
houses and church already at Tuxedo
speaks of the push and enterprise of this con-
cern, and in our estimation they deserve the
patronage of the Washington public
