The Catholic University authorities here
have been notified that one of the largest
benevolent unions in this country, the
knights of Columbus, expect to endow Il
chair at the institution next October. 1t
will be known as the chair of American
history and represents an endowment of
100000. In view of the action taken by
the German societies several years ago, af-
Ger MonsiSnor Schroedcr's removal from the
university, against founding chair of any
description in its halls, this movement made
by the Knights of Columbus is very graft
flying to the authorities. 1t is stated that
the unlVer4ty's prospects never looked
brighter than at present. over 100000 in
requests and bcnefa ctions have been placed
in its treasury recently, and after the final
settlement of several estates among them

A meeting of the congregation of the First
Baptist Church, corner of 10Th and o
streets northwest, was held last evening,
to consider the resignation of the pastor,
Rev. DR.. Charles A. Stakely, which, al
ready stated in The Star, was read before
the congregation at the service Sunday
morning last. After the delivery of a num-
Der of addresses a resolution was adopted
that a committee. composed of Messrs. E.

stitution Of learning are too well known
to Justify repetition at this time. Dr.
Stakely was also for a number of years
trustee in the Southern Baptist Theological
Seminary at Louisville. KY, and was the
only trustee ever appointed from the Dis
trict of Columbia, except the late Rev. Dr.
Samson. who served some forty or fifty
years ago. He was also for a considerable
period member of the board of managers

ciety at Philadelphia

In 1890 DR.. Stakely was one of the four
delegates from the Southern Baptist con-
vention. to the English Baptist convention
at Manchester, England, where he had the
honor of preaching the annual convention
sermon. In all of DR.. Stakely's church
work he has had a valuable ally in the per-
son of his wife. She has been conspicuous

The number of insane soldiers at St.
Elfzabeth's Asylum has been increased the
past two days by the arrival of a party
Of sixteen men who have been in service
In the Philippines. One of them is a lieu
tenant OF volunteer infantry. Lieut.. Stet-
son, who was also ordered to proceed from
Manila for treatment at the government
hospital, has not arrived yet, nor is it
known when he will, although it was I'M
derstood some time ago he had recovered
sufficiently to make it unnecessary for him
to undergo treatment at the hospital
named. The men who have lately been
placed in St. Elizabeth's Asylum appear
to be suffering from types of melancholia
or something akin to it, it is said.
ne arrival of this last detachment at the
institution brings the entire number of in
sane soldiers from the Philippines who
have received treatment at the asylum up
to about ninety. Some of the patients have,
of course, been discharged from the asylum
as cured or improved

MAYBELLE CLAIRE.-Maybelle Claire
last night introduced a novelty at the Co
lumba Theater, entitled Poems and Pic
lures" An artist by profession, she has
developed the possibilities of stereopticon
Illustration to a degree that surpasses any
thing hitherto attempted in that line. The
pictures illustrate the Sunshiny moods of
nature, and the recitation of the poems
makes an appropriate and agreeable &C
compartment. The act was greeted with
liberal and sincere applause.
