OBJECTS TO LETTER z.
MIR. Cliffs Protest Against Change in
Name Of Chaplin Street.

Mr.. Cliffs Protest Against Change in
Name of Chaplin Street.
A very amusing letter has been received
by the Commissioners from w. L. Cliff Of
1l34 Chaplin street regarding the changing
Of the name Of that street to Zane. Mr.
Cliff says:
"On my return from summer vacation
am met with the affective information that
you propose changing the name of Chaplin
street to Zane. Now, you are the city faith
ers, or possibly stepfathers, and We your
helpless children, appeal that this distress
ing name may not be put upon our street.
We on Chaplin street love our homes, but
the temptation would be strong indeed to
flee from them If this offense against good
taste is committed
IF our street must bear a name begin
ming with z, and that q must be the initial
of a famous American, then the friends of
many village Zeb and Zene and Zack are
quite ready to champion their own z
against your ancient frontiersman, Zane
Why isn't Christian name as good as
surname for this especial purpose?
But why insist upon this nefarious no.
menclature? The system that produces
such uneuphonious results as Yates and
Zane may well be rejected altogether or at
least disregarded so far as Z is concerned
1.-The nightmare 1t is-z-z-z. The very
shade of Zoroaster Zneers at the Zug-
gestion. Better that your Zeal for reform
fall to Zero rather than perpetuate this
outrage. If you persist, may no soft
Zephyrs fan your fevered brow in Zummer
and may winters frosts touch all your
hopes when at their Zenith. May more
stripes fall your back than the Zebra
has on his. and may you benefit by no
prayer to be found in the Zend-a-Vesta
May the fates pursue you under every
Zone of the Zodiac.
~, z, z! BY what Zymotic disease OF
the originator's brain was this conception
wrought out? Zounds, Messrs Commits
sioners, If we must have z give us trans
portation to Nova Zembla. to Zanzibar or
to drown our Zorrows in the Zuyder Zee
Yours, very Zeriously

GENTRY,s DOG AND PONY SHOW.
The Parade Witnessed by a Large

Crowd of People.
The younger generation of washington
was in it's proverbial glory this morning
when 1t was treated to an amusing and en-
tertaining street parade by the Gentry
Brothers Famous Dog and Pony Show,
which will give exhibitions beginning this
afternoon and continuing throughout the
week at the corner of 18th and U streets
northwest The parade was quite a long
one, made up of interesting features. II
presented the appearance of circus pa
rade being, however, upon smaller scale
The parade was preceded by band seated
upon the circus band wagon. and this was
followed by other vehicles of different de-
scriptions bearing dogs and monkeys OF
various types, which attracted great deal
of attention, There were dogs Of almost
every breed in the parade, and each OF the
CANNES as he sat upon his favorite seat IN
his picturesque wagon had his own coterle
Of youths who followed him from the be-
ginning to the end Of the parade to pay his
doglets the grave homage he apparently de-
served. All of the dogs in the parade to-
day will be performers during the exhib1-
tions to be given by the management un-
der canvas and many of them are world
wide famous for their clever tricks. Sew
eral monkeys dressed in unique style also
attracted a great deal of attention. Three
elephants which were in the parade march
ed in rather odd style. Following larger
elephant which led the trio came two
smaller ones, the second one with his trunk
grasping the first ones tail and the third
one occupying a similar relative position
to the second. The parade was witnessed
by large concourse Of people as it pro-
ceeded along the principal streets. The
first exhibition was given this afternoon.
A large crowd, completely filling the spa
cious tent, witnessed the performance. A
large proportion Of those present were chill
dren. The exhibition Is Of the best of its
kind and the clever performances OF the
dogs, monkeys and elephants elected great
enthusiasm from the spectators

This is how it happens: Our New York

when he saw a chance to buy for us a Carload
of Trunks at most enticing price, ought
them and shipped them to us Our Buyers
mistake IS Your Gain; for we cannot keep the
Trunks and Bags in our store-Haven't the
room-so we are going to let you have chance
at them at Wholesale Pices. What you don't
buy we have made arrangements TO turn over
to Jobber who will store them, and who will
not sell them at retail; SO it is probable that
after this sale is over, you will not have another
chance to buy Trunks and Bags at such figures

Probably no addition to sacred literature
has created so profound an interest among
Testament This is a new translation
from the most authentic original texts into
strictly modern English. For the first time
this most important book, a New Tesla
ment, has been given to English readers in
the language in which they are accustomed
to think. Passages, which in the language
of the time of King James gave but vague
impressions, bristle with concrete living
meaning when translated into the terse,
strong idioms Of the present day. The
work comes in three volumes, the first be-
ing the Gospels, the second the Pauline
Epistles, and the third mot yet off the
press the remainder Of the New Testament.
