ANACOSTIA HAPPENINGS.
Improvement of Nichols Avenue
Lawn SOcinl-Firemen III.


1t seems to have been decided to allow
the Improvement of Nichols avenue from
Sheridan avenue southwark to continue. At
one time it was feared the order OF the
Commissioners for the work to be begun
would be revoked. A good-siZed force of
men is being employed in the work, which
is being pushed as rapidly as possible by
Superintendent Watson of Anacostia.
Fire engine company No. 10 Of Anacostia
has but seven men on duty at present. AS
sistant Foreman McLane returned to duty
after a severe illness, and Engineer Weitzel
and Private S. p. Shipley are now on the
sick list, with Fireman c. 7. Ball on leave.
None of the men on duty is allowed a day
off under the existing conditions, according
to the usual rule of having seven men on
duty at all times.

HISTORIC CORNER STONE.
Proposed Use oc One Taken From the
Fourth Presbyterinn Church.

Proposed Use az One Taken From the
Fourth Presbyterian Church.
The corner stone of the old church edi-
flee of the congregation of the Fourth
Presbyterian Church, on 9th street near G.
street, which has just been torn down, was
removed Thursday to the chapel of the
new edifice at 18th and Yale streets, CO.
lumb;a Heights. AS was stated in The
Star the stone was located after some
difficulty by Mr.. John W. Hollyday,
the treasurer of the church, who has gen.
eral supervision of the work of removing
the old building. He found in searching
the records, as well as by talking with
some Of the older members of the congre-
cation, that the church building had been
enlarged since its erection in $50, and
therefore the corner stone would be found
at the corner of the structure as originally
erected.
Mr. Hollyday learned that the first build
ing extended some eighty feet from the
rear end of the present building. and from
oral evidence he concluded the stone had
been placed at the southwest corner. The
search III the spot indicated resulted in I'M
earthing the stone. which was at some
depth beneath the surface Of the ground.
The copper box containing the articles de-
posted in it when the stone was laid near
" sixty years ago. was placed by MIR.
Hoflyday in a safe deposit vault. and it
will not be opened until some time in the
fall, when a special meeting of the congre-
cation will be held to witness the event.
AS the stone was laid by the Masonic
fraternity, and a memorial of that fact, as
well of the participants. is contained in
the box, it is probable representatives of
the organizatio will be present on that oc-
caSion
The corner stone, massive piece of
brown stone, was placed in the basement
of the chapel where it will remain until
the congregation is ready to begin the
n ne
which will be, it is expected in the near
future. 1t has been suggested that the
old stone be used as the corner stone of
the new church building, and that the
same copper box, containing articles me-
mortal of the event. be again deposited in
the stone. The removal of the stone to
Columbia Heights was quite an undertake
ing. owing to it's size and weight 1t is
three feet long. two and one-half feet wide
and two feet thick and weighs in the
neighhOrhOOd of a ton.
