FEATURE OF CENTENNIAL CELE-
BRATION IN DECEMBER.
Meeting Last Night of Committee on
Public Comfort md Order-Sub-
committee Named.


be given in compliment to the centennial
committee by the trustees of the gallery.
This conclusion was reached at a meeting
of the citizens committee in charge of the
arrangements, which was held yesterday
Afternoon at the headquarters, 1225 Penn
sylvania avenue. After a discussion OF the
subject it was decided to accept the offer
of the trustees to give a reception, as stated.
Another form of closing the events of the
day was the holding of colonial ball, but
it was found there was no suitable building
to be had and the time too short in
which to erect a structure. For this rea-
son, among others, it was decided best not
to undertake the ball, although this fea-
ture, or rather the consideration of the
possibility of holding one has not been en-
tirely abandoned. In the event that ar
engagements can be made it is probable
ball will be a part of the centennial cele-
bration program.

There was a full attendance of the men,
bers of the committee on public order and
