ANACosTIA AND VICINITY.
The New Year Heralded by Burning
of Much Red Fire

Although the hour of midnight was an
nounced by the explosion of rockets, the
discharge Of firearms, in some instances, and
the burning of red lights, with the sounding
of horns, there was untoward incident
to mar the arrival Of the new year IN this
section of the District. The glazing red
lights burned along Washington street had
the effect of causing the policemen Of the
local station house, to believe a fire had
broken out. The principal watch night serv-
ice held On the town was in the Anacostia
Methodist Episcopal Church, corner of
jackson and Pierce streets, where the Ep-
worth League began exercises at 9:30
o'clock. Mr.. John Fort, the president, pre-
sided Mr.. George F. Tibbits, the secretary
of the Interstate Young Mems Christian
Association, delivered an address, as did
Mr.. Cameron Beck the assistant secretary.
Mrs. Beck sang. Shortly after midnight
Rev. Charles o. Isaac. the pastor of the
church, took charge Of the meeting and
conducted the service until the advent of
the new year.
New Year day was observed this morn
ing in st. Teresa's Church; Washington
and Fillmore streets, Anacostia, by masses
celebrated at and s o'clock. Rev. Charles
NJ. Bart, the pastor, preached the sermon
at the latter service, recalling to the minds
of his hearers the happenings of the past
year. In conclusion he rendered the con-
gregation his best wishes for the year just
begun
1t is not usual for any special prepara-
lions to be made at the Government Hos
pital for the Insane for the celebration OF
New Year day, but at dinner today the
hospital people were given potpie, brown
sweet potatoes to the number of eighteen
bushels, celery to the extent of 1000 heads
and $50 mince pies with some other every
day ingredients, thereby adding a holiday
touch to the bill of fare.
The firemen of No. 10 fire engine company
at Washington and Pierce streets, Anacos-
tia, were the recipients of bags of con-
fectionery Saturday from Rev. Willard G.
Davenport the rector of the Episcopal
Church in that town.

The prensa opposes Roosevelt Plan.

The Prensa newspaper at Buenos Ayres,
Argentine, opposes the proposal of Mr..
Roosevelt to create a pan-American arbi-
tration tribunal. and says that The Hague
tribunal is good enough for Latin America,
adding, moreover, that the proposal seems
to be a sequel to the Monroe doctrine as
interpreted by Mr.. Roosevelt. The Prensa
says 1t appears that Mr.. Roosevelt wishes
to eliminate Europe from intercourse with
South American nations. therefore 1t is not
convenient to adhere to any measure tend
ing to part South America from the ciyiiz-
lister. Mr.. Beaupre, sent the Argentine min
lister OF foreign affairs note thanking him
for the declarations made In the chamber
trine. and says that the State Department
instructed hin to thank him for his friendly
appreciation.
