THE sAENGERBuND CONCERT.
The Society opens the Season With
Splendid Music.

A large and representative audience
greeted the Washington Saengerbund last
night at the New National Theatre, the
occasion being the first public concert of
the season of this well and favorably
known musical organization. The saen-
gerbund has made all efforts to secure for
it's course of public concerts this season
the assistance of the best singers and ar
lists, and they have succeeded beyond
their most sanguine expectations. No
programme offering better musical talent
than the one produced last night could be
desired.
The "Gelocbniss," by Meyer Olberle-
ben was solemn, almost mai site, and
was ably rendered. Handwergs "Sere-
made" with Franz Rebstocks baritone
solo. earned well-merited applause.
Somewhat as a surprise came the rendi-
ton of new chorus work, entitled,
.Liebesgruesse." The writer of the song
is DR.. Chr Strack, editor Of the Wash

Justice Barnard has had it under advise

Monday last when he denied the petition
to make the Injunction permanent.
The hearing in the case OF Nolan against
the Chesapeake and Potomac Telephone
Company will be continued during the cur
rent week before Justice Barnard. The
proceedings in this instance were insti-
tuted for the purpose of determining the
right and power of the Commissioners of
the District to issue permits for the in
stallation of a telephone communication
/ by the defendant company, with premises
| beyond the city limits proper. Nolan, the
petitioner, owns a house on Columbus
Road, which he has leased to another per-
son. His tenant applied to the Commits
sioners and was granted a permit to make
telephone connections with the premises
he occupies. This, however, was done
without the consent of his landlord,
Nolan. The latter then filed petition in
the Supreme Court of the District asking
that the telephone company be enjoined
from making the necessary wire connec-
the appearance of his property and injure
its value.
During the hearing A. b. Duvall appear
ed as a friend of the court and stated that
in his opinion, the Commissioners have
not the right to issue permits for the
strnging of wires for the purpose of
making telephone connections beyond the
city limits. This question has been more
than once before submitted to the
Commissioners and at their request Mr..
Duvall sent them his opinion which is
practically the same as that he now holds
and which he announced to the court.
The telephone company contends that
the Commissioners have the power to is
sue permits for The strnging of wires for
the purpose of making telephone connec-
lions beyond the city limits, and at the
hearing referred to several instances in
which this was done.
II is claimed, however that the permits
referred to by the telephone company
were not issued by the Commissioners
under the present act regulating the
stringing of telephone wires within the
city limits.

An Aged Negro.

The oldest inhabitant of Orangeburg
county, and probably the oldest in the
State, died last Wednesday night week
ago at his home, near Branchville. He
was an old colored man named Sibe JOY
ner. He was born in 1884, one year after
the treaty was signed recognizing Ameri-
can independence and was Is years old
when Washington died, and is the only
person in this country, so far as we know,
who has lived in every Presidential Ad-
ministration of the American Republic.
He lacked but few months of living IN
three distinct centuries, and according
to some authorities, he actually did live
in three distinct centuries. The old man
always voted the Democratic ticket and
was respected by his neighbors. He was
married several times and it is said that
he left forty-seven children surviving
him and a legion of grand and great
The above facts were
furnished by gentleman who lived near
the old man.-Orangeburg Patriot.

More Dispensary Money.

Bamberg county is to get some more
money from the dispensary school fund.
Comptroller General Dermam has at last

of their respective deficiencies in the
school fund under the act relating to the
disbursement of that portion OF the dis
pensary profits placed to the credit OF the
school fund. The grand total is $19,-
S6s.36. This leaves something over $751;
600 to be paid to the school fund of the
counties according to their enrolment.
Bamberg gets from the deficiency fund

last Tuesday morning received receipt
for warrant to be signed and returned,
when the check will be issued. We hope
to also get part of that $4,000 on the
basis of enrolment. In order to show

Foolish Fortune.

WASHINGTON, May 22.-The general
conference of the A. N. E. Zion church
closed yesterday. The principal subject
was the report submitted by John c.
Dancey on the state of the country, which
dealt principally with the work OF the
negroes since the war. 1t extolled the
bravery of the negro soldiers in Cuba
and the Philippines, pointed to the strides
made by the colored race along industrial
and professional lines, condemned the
proposition to take away the franchise OF
illiterate negroes and allow illiterate
whites to vote, denounced crimes against
women and wrong doing of every kind.
Editor Thomas Fortune of the New
York Age, speaking with reference to
that portion of the report relating to ne
gro suffrage, denounced Senator Illlman
of South Carolina 1t had cost tons OF
blood and money, he said, to place the
Fifteenth amendment in the constitution
and it would cost tons of blood and mon
eY to get it out.
