FOURTH OF JULY FIRES.
Daniel Hilbert's Barn Burned
Caused by Firecrackers.

Yesterday afternoon barn In the
alley between Twenty fourth an0
Twenty fifth, and K streets, belonging
ing to Daniel NJ. Hilbert, was almost
totally destroyed by fire. A strong
south wind was blowing at the time,
and the prompt and efficient work OF
the fire department was all that Kept
the flames from spreading to otner
property.
The fire is supposed to have been the
result of the small boy and his hre-
cracker. The loss is estimated at about
$500. said to have been partially COW
cred by insurance.
Shortly after o'clock fire was dis
covered in the rear part of the house
owned by H. w. Miller at 1911 Second
street. The engines were soon on the
ground and had the flames under con-
troll before they had eaten their way
to the front part of the house, which is
a two-story building. The fire is said
to have started from fire bombs. Loss
about $500, fully insured.
Chief Guthrie also succeeded in put
ting out a fire which started at house
at Fourteenth and G streets about Z
o. m. 1t, too, was the result Of fire
works.

the time the giant powder was stored
there. The fremen say that IL the
blaze had not been extinguished be-
fore it communicated to the wood shed
IN the rear their lives would have been
endangered by terrific explosion.
To add to the complications, it is re-
ported that attorneys are engaged in
preparing papers for the institution of
a number of damage suits against D.
Sornberger of Georgetown, in whose
store the explosion of powder occurred
The insurance money was paid on the
Sornberger building, but payment was
refused for the damages to residences
caused by the flying bricks, iron store
doors and other debris. The insurance
companies claim that such damages
cannot be collected upon a fire insur-
ance policy, and if the companies are
found not to be responsible for the loss
the damage suits Will be pushed
against Sornberger, the owner of the
store in which the explosion occurred.

A RACE WORTH SEEING.
Robert ]. and John r. Gentry Will
Try to Beat Two Minutes.

CHICAGO, July 4.-The following en-
tries have been made for the free-for-
all pacing race to take place at Wash
ington Park on Saturday, July 24th:
Star Pointer, 2:02115; Joe Patchen, 2:03,
and Frank Agan, 2:0315.
In addition to the free-for-a1 and
2:11 pacing race the club has arranged
special for John r. Gentry. 2:0O15
and Robert j., 2:0115, each to pace a
mile accompanied by a running mate
the consideration being a purse of
$1,000 and an extra $1,000 to either or
both of them if they beat 200. It
was hoped all five of these noted flyers
would enter for the free for all. but
il was found that Lewis j. Tewksbury,
the owner of John r. Gentry and Rob
ert j., had the choice of accepting any
one of three engagements for an ex-
hfbition by his horses on the same day
Therefore. in order that their presence
might be assured, the special was ar
ranged for them. The 2:11 pacing class
will close on Saturday, July 10th.

National Christian Citizenship
Leagues Celebration.

CHICAGO, July 4-The officers of
the National Christian Citizenship
League are very much pleased at the
result of their efforts to secure a
Fourth of July celebration along the
lines of their platform of principles.
Their correspondence for the past
month has been very heavy. letters
coming from all sections of the coun-
try endorsing their principles and tell
ing of efforts to cary them out. Edwin
u. Wheeler, the President, said to-day:
The league began it's work for a
new Fourth three years ago. Interest
increased each year, but the results
this year are brighter than others. The
South has joined the North and the
East and West in the plea for higher
citizenship, and the application of
Christian patriotism to public affairs
General G. H. Howard, P S. Hudson
and Hon. Elihu A. Moore prepared the
celebration programme carried out in
many towns and villages yesterday
and which will be carried out in thou-
sands more on Monday Many thou
sands OF sermons were preached to-
day and many of the strongest men
among the clergy and Iaity, Catholic
as well as Protestant, furnished telling
messages which were read to the con-
gregations. Our correspondence shows
that the religious denomina tions. young
peoples organizations, temperance So
c1eties, ETC., are strongly interested in
the movement. The aim of the league
is to get all the people together on a
common basis Of non-partisan demand
for pure government and the success
of this year shows that we are pro-
crossing toward that end

WARRIORS AT WORSHIP.
Red Men Listen to a Patriotic Ser
mon by Rev. G. L. Mel.

Each of the three local tribes Of Red
Men, as we'll as the Daughters OF
Pocahontas, were well represented at
ST. Pauls Episcopal Church last even
ing in response to the invitation of the
rector. Rev c. L. Mel, which had been
extended to the order.
Rev. Mr.. Mel preached an eloquent,
interesting and appropriate sermon,
from the standpoint that the Gospel Of
Christ is the worlds Declaration Of
independence. He followed his idea
to it's natural conclusion, submitting
that Christ taught Immortality to set
men free from the sitting idea that
this life is all.
The pastor stated that the Declara-
ton of Independence given to the
world by Christ is no respecter of per-
sons, and that the same promise is held
out to all. It's primary element, he
said, is love of truth, or of everything
real and genuine-a love of the actual
things in life. Life, he held, is but the
beginning, and in it a man does little
more than cut his eye-teeth. 1t is
really intended as a school for that
which is to follow
The visitors paid the closest attention
to the remarks of the pastor and were
evidently greatly pleased with the ex-
cellent sermon presented to them.

THE PEOPLES PARTY.
Conference Meeting Begins at
Nashville To-day.

NASHVILLE (Tenn) July A
meeting of the committee appointed at
Memphis to call the conference of the
Peoples party, which meets here to-
morrow, was held here to-day. The
following were present: w. S. Nor
gan, F. w. d. Mayes, j. S. Coxey, Alex
Steinberger, J. H. Ferris, Milton Parks
and Joe Parker Mr. Mayes presided
and Mr.. Parker acted as Secretary.
The object of the meeting was to map
out programme. The committee de-
cided to recommend J. S. Bradley of
Texas for Temporary Chairman and
Joe A. Parker for Temporary Secretary.
A large number of delegates have ar
rived and many are scheduled to come
on late trains tonight Congressman
Ward of Alabama, John Seitz of Texas,
and Mr.. Coffman of Arkansas, are here.
Ignatius Donnelly is en- route and
Cyclone" Davis is expected before the
conference adjourns. There seems to
be a great deal of uncertainty concern
ing the attendance of Tom Watson and
Senator Butler and opinion is about
evenly divided as to their attendance.
Those here, While they discuss what
the convention should do quite freely,
do not seem agreed upon what it will
do, the prevailing idea seems to be
party reorganization in order to put an
end to dissensfon which has arisen in
the party on account of occurrences
within the past year. 1t is said that
the sessions may be somewhat stormy
but no action can be taken except the
addition of resolutions, though some,
including F. w. ID. Mayes, think it not
improbable that resolutions criticising
the actions of some members of the
National Committee will be adopted.
The anti-fusion sentiment is strong
and some action will be taken it is be-
lieved, in favor of independence and
against fusion.
The delegates to the National Press
reform conference will meet to-mor-
row, but nothing will be done other
than taking part in the general con-
ference, to which most of them are
delegates.
