Could He Desired.

That ice hockey Is most popular diver
sion was demonstrated yesterday by the
hundredS Of people who crowded the lakes
and ponds contiguous to the city and in
dulged in the game. Persons of all ages
were to be seen following the fortunes OF
the elusive ball, and the sport proved to be
most eXhilarating
The cold weather of the past few days
has made the ice all that could be desired
by the most ardent devotee of things fam
tastic. The lake at Chevy Chase and the
big BASIN south of the monument were
crowded with skaters all day.
another diversion introduced was "ice
sailing, by which the man on runners con-
Verts himself into sort of an 'ice boat
and cuts the wind, to speak, while being
whisked along by means of a huge sail
which he generally carries aloft in his
hand. The races between some of the run
ners proved to be very exciting to the
spectators who lined the banks. Unless
there is a decided change in the tempera-
ture, the skating promises to be excellent
for several days to come
For the first time this winter the big
BASIN is frozen over with six inches of ice.

Death Of Mrs. W. p. Ewing.

Henry P. Ewing, Thursday morning
last, received the sad intelligence Of
the death of his mother at the old
home in Charleston, West Virginia, the
evening before. Mrs. Ewing was one
of the foremost women of the state
and was beloved by all for her sterling
qualities of mind and heart. Her hus-
band for years was one of the fore
most physicians and educators of the
south, and in all his work she has been
an able, willing assistant. Her death
is a sad blow to her son, Henry P.
Ewing, and his many friends in this
county extend to him their sincerest
coincidence.

Elks Lodge of Sorrow.

Last Sunday Kingman Lodge No.
46S paid its tribute to the honored
dead of the order and the event was
worthy of more than passing notice.
At the hour of 2:30 p. m. the lodge
room was filled to overfiowing with
members of the order and invited
guests. The room was handsomely
decorated with flowers, evergreens and
the colors of the order. The services
were opened in the ritualistic form of
the order and we're followed by a song
by the Elks' Quartette. After songs oy
Brothers Anderson and Abrams, Rev.
E. G. Decker delivered an oration.
Rev. W. G. Blakely followed with an
eulogy of the deceased mem bers of the
lodge, and in paying a tribute to the
memory of DR.. A. M. Dyke and Charles
j. Ziemer, adverted to the protective
and benevolent features of the order.
This feature of the order of yearly
meeting and awakening memories of
the departed brothers is one that has
much to commend it. 1t was the Gus.
tom of the Druids to meet in this way
to recount their tales of victorious
wars and to mourn the death of some
loved chieftsin, but how much nicer it
is to recount the virtues of the man
who has battled in the cause of his
brothers and humanity, than the one
who has gained distinction on the CORY
battlefield. These services are cslcu-
lated to bring the members of the or
der in closer touch with each other
and to bring to them the knowledge
that all men are but mortal.
