the board of managers, held previous to
Dudley Foulke, civil service commissioner;
Gen. Walter Wyman of the marine hospital
service and Fred L. Harvey, secretary of
the Washington Monument Society, had
been elected to membership.
The first paper of the evening was read
by Miss Elizabeth Bryant Johnston, who
gave an interesting account of the history
of the seal of the society, which is a re-
production Of the clock in the old hall of
Italian artist, Franzoni, who came to this
country with a number of his compatriots.
They did much of the artistic work in the
decoration of the old Capitol building. Miss
Johnston included a sketch of the lives and
the works Of Franzoni and some of his as
sociates.
The next paper was by Mr.. A. I. Mudd
and was a continuation Of a former paper,
giving history of the theaters In Wash
ington. The paper read by Mr.. Mudd last
year and printed in the last volume OF the
proceedings of the society brought the his
tory of the theaters in this city down to
the year 1885. In his paper last evening
Mr. Mudd continued the narrative down to
the year 1850. AS these papers are the re-

THE INITIAL MEETING
COLUMBIA HISTORICAL SOCIETY
OPENS WINTER SEASON.

The first meeting of the Columbia Histor-
ical Society to be held since the summer
vacation was assembled last evening in the
banquet room of the Arlington Hotel. There
was a good attendance of members and
others. Mr.. A. r. Spofford, the first vice
president Of the society, occupied the chair
in the absence of the president, Mr.. John
A. Kasson. Mr.. Spofford spoke Of the IA
vorable conditions under which the society
entered upon a new year. Its membership,
which is steadily growing, he said, has
reached the number of $50. In order to rem
der more available for the general use the
annual volumes Of the proceedings Of the
society, Mr.. Spofford stated it had been
decided to issue the next volume, which
would be number six in the series, and
which would appear the early part of the
coming year, in board covers AS these
volumes, containing the papers read before
the society during the year are distributed
to members this change, he thought, would
be looked upon with favor by those who
have difficulty in preserving pamphlets or
who do not care to go to the trouble of
having bound the paper-covered volumes
heretofore issued by the society.
Mr.. Spofford also said 1t was possible that
some of those who had entered the society
in late years, and, therefore, had not re-
ceived all the publications Of the society,
might like to own a complete set Of the
five volumes already issued or to COM
plete their sets. and for this reason 1t had
been decided to furnisf-such back volumes
as might be needed by members at small
cost. On this basis complete set Of the
books can be procured for ten dollars. The
issues are limited, and for that reason as
well on account Of the intrinsic value Of
the contents 1t was thought ouch an oppor-
tunity was specially favorable one.
The Deceased Members
Appropriate reference was made by the
presiding officer before he announced the
regular program of the evening to the
deaths during the year OF members OF the
society. The list included the names Of

Stone Bridge to Replace Culvert.

The Philadelphia, Wilmington and
Baltimore Railroad Company, has decid-
ed to replace the culvert at Principle,
which was washed out, together with a
large portion of the road-bed, by the
storm two weeks ago, with large stone
arched bridge. 1t is also probable that
the line will be changed at that point,
although this has not yet been definitely
determined upon. The break caused by
the washout of this culvert was the most
serious that has occurred for long time
on the Philadelphia, Wilmington and
Baltimore Railroad, necessitating the
suspension of traffic for five days until a
temporary structure could be erected
over the break. The damages caused the
company by the washout, is said, will
reach 100000.
