From the Capitol Grounds.

vehicles of That Class to BE Excluded
From the Capitol Grounds.
In a few days the use of the Capitol
roads by heavy wagons will be entirely
stopped For thirteen years there has been
a statute on the books, but not enforced,
prohibiting the use of these roads "fn such
manner as to obstruct or hinder their
proper use." and the Capitol police board
has now determined to enforce this law to
prevent the use of the roads by heavy
toams drays, delivery wagons and in fact
all vehicles except those carrying passen-
gers. Col. Bright, sergeant-at-arms of the
Senate, said to a Star reporter this morn
Ing that it was not intended to begin the
strict enforcement of the regulation at once
or to exclude any wagons that have been
In the habit Of using the roads until all
have been warned of the determination to
keep these thoroughfares clear for light
vehicles. The herdics will be permitted to
use the roadways as heretofore, as it is
construed that they fall under the phrase
Of this statute that exempts from its oper-
alton all vehicles running Ito or from the
Capitol on government service" These
vehicles are of great service to the men,
berS of Congress, and persons having busi-
ness at the Capitol and they will be al
lowed to pass through the grounds as here
tofore and to run through the Senate arch
to deliver passengers as has been the GUS
tom for some time past.
COi Bright also SalU lDlS morning that
he and his associates on the police board
had determined to rid the Capitol grounds
as far as possible of the disorderly char
acters who have made it a resort, especial
ly the porticoes and archways around the
building, where, on summer evenings, most
annoying scenes are often witnessed by
respectable people, VINO go to the west ter
race to enjoy the cool air after Sundown.
Capt. Garden has, under Col. Bright's di
rection, SO reorganized his small force of
policemen that these places will hereafter
be kept clear from all Objectionable char
acters, and an effort will be made to patrol
this part of the grounds effectively, not
withstanding the fact that through the
economy of Congress there is no appropri-
alton for lighting the terrace beyond the
middle section in front of the main build
ing and on moonless nights the darkness
here is impenetrable. Col. Bright believes
that this terrace may become favorite
resort for people of all ages and both sexes
who desire to enjoy the glorious view and
the cool air, but who have been discour-
aged in the past from going there by the
rough characters who have made it COM
mon loafing place, and by the unpleasant
scenes that they have often been obliged
to witness.

National Rines' Excursion.

About five hundred friends and admirers
of the National Rifles accompanied that
popular OF ganization down the river on the
steamer Manchester to Marshall Hall last
night, the occasion being the annual ex-
cursion of the Rifles. Capt. Oyster, Lieut.
Manson, Lieut.. Geo. w. Evans, Lieut..
Boteler and Lieut.. Acker, with their wives,
and nearly the whole company, numbering
eighty, were along, and proceeded to set
things going for a jolly time just as soon
as the boat left her wharf. The company
wore fatigue uniforms and presented an
unusually attractive and handsome ap-
pearanCe. Stops were made at Fort Wash
ington both ways, and the soldierly specta-
Gle presented there was much enjoyed by
the several hundred observers on the boat.
Music and dancing occupied the time at
the hall, a program of nine dances having
been arranged for in advance. Schroeder $
Band furnished excellent music. The only
occurrence to mar the pleasure of the
event was the leaving of one Of the Rifles
at the fort, where he disembarked to speak
to some acquaintances Many regrets We're
passed that he was unable to enjoy the
festivities at the hall, and when the boat
returned he was gladly welcomed by his
cOmpanionS.

KNIGHTS OF PYTHIAS.
A Second Decree ForhiddinS Catholics
to Join the Order.

Some time ago a decree was received
from the head of the Catholic Church at
Rome forbidding members of the church
from entering secret societies. According
to it's terms the head of each diocese was
given two months within which to publish
it or else to make known to Rome, in writ
ing, what special circumstances existed
why publication should be deferred. Most
of the heads Of dioccses have since pub
Ished the decree, but as unofficial infor-
nation reached Rome that some bishops
had not yet acted a second decree has been
issued. 1t states that there appears to be
no further reason why the decree of last
December should not be made public in all
dioceses and all arch6ishops and bishops
are. accordingly directed TO promu!gate the
decree without further delay.
