RECORD OF WEATHER

The year 1905. so the weather records
show included an unusually cold winter.
and during January and February a
series Of markedly heavy falls OF snow
The goose-bone prophet, however went
astray on HIS accustomed prediction that
a cold winter meant a hot summer. for
the latter season passed with far below
the average number of sitting days. and
the autumn following was little short of
ideal. one Of the worst storms of the
year covered three days just before
Christmas. when nearly twenty-four
hours Of snow was followed by continu-
Gus downpour Of rain so that cutters and
creeks overlooked their bounds. A great
number of skaters enjoyed the sport al
most continuously during the first two
months OF the year, and when warm rains
finally carried the ice off the river a fleet
of ice-breaking tugs were led into battle
and the danger of hood was averted The
cold season. of course. carried its quota
or suffering TO the poor so that organized
charity was called upon for strenuous la
bors to bring the needed relief.

IN THE CHURCH E s

The churches of Washington have been
unusually active during the past twelve
months. Probably the most notable fea-
ture Of the religious life of the community
is the large number of new church build
ings that have been erected and the i'm
provements that have been made, not to
mention the organization of entirely new
churches or movements to bring about such
organizations. The year has been remark
ably prosperous in the churches of Wash
ington, and the church people have been
able to undertake projects which they have
had in mind for g. long time-years, in
many cases - because of this prosperity.
There are new church buildings Of practi-
calIy every denomination. which have been
erected since January l, 1905, and they are
scattered over the city and in the outlying
districts.
During the year several large and i'm
portant religious gatherings were held in
this city including the 121st annual SEES
sion of the Baltimore NJ. E. conference, IN
the spring; the semi annual meeting of ali
the bishops of the Methodist Episcopal de-
nomination, in the fall, when many i'm
portant discussions took place; the meeting
Of the Pennsylvania conference of the
United Brethren Church, etc.

From Harper's Weekly.
A young lawyer had become very much
attached to a certain young woman, who
was somewhat celebrated among hef
friends for her repartae. The only obstacle
In the pathway of the young man was his
exceeding shyness, for while always IN
command of himself in the court room. he
became almost speechless in the presence
of his adored one. AS one method or snow

shower his inamorata with presents.
The young iady's mother, being far from

ELECTRIC RAILROADS

There was not much done during the year
toward adding 10 the facilities in the way
OF street railways outside of the District
limits, one reason, perhaps, being that the
field is already pretty well covered. In
connection with the changes occasioned by
the replacing Of the old Long bridge with
the new steam railroad bridge and a high
way bridge. the company operating the
Washington, Mount Vernon and Alexandria
electric road was reorganIzed and an ex-
tensive scheme of improvements on that
road was carried on. which It is thought.
will result in making 1t first class in all
respects. No progress, as far as the actual
work on the roadway, was made in the pro-
posed electric line between this city and
Baltimore and Annapolis. The company
however. has been rehnanced and the pros
pect is good that the road will be com
pleted.
The Great Falls and Old Dominion road
between the Great Falls and the Aqueduct
bridge, Is so nearly completed that 1t IS
expected IT will be operated early In the
opening year. 1t is announced that trans
fer arrangements have been made with
the Capital Traction Company so that pas
sengers living within three miles of the
city along that road can come In on sin

BRIDGES.
MUCH PROGRESS ON SEVERAL
NEW STRUCTURES.

In municipal improvements during 1900
probably no greater strides were made in
any line than in the construction Of bridges.
The new railway bridge across the Poto-
mac already in use with the beginning of
the year, was supplemented by the compile
ton of the new Highway bridge, which
awaits only the finishing touches to it's ap-
proaches to be put into active service. The
Connecticut avenue bridge which IS to be
the greatest Of its kind In the world, passed
through its most critical stage, and the con-
tractors, having successfully keyed the five
largest arches. completely spanning the
Rock creek gorge with concrete, entered
upon the construction OF the smaller arches
which will support the roadway of the
bridge. On the proposed Anacosua bridge
10 replace the old structure across the
Eastern branch marked progress was made.
although 1t will yet be many months before
the formal ceremony of throwing the bridge
open to the public occurs.
Farly in the year the agitation for trans
rerring the Thompson bridge 10 y street
across Rock creek was re0pened, but Con-
press did not take the desired action. Busi-
ness interests in Virginia, headed by the
yoanarenent OF each of the principal brick
wards. made an appeal for postponement
of the destruction Of the old Long bridge
until after the approaches to the new High
way bridge have been proven adequate for
heavy traffic.
The proposition for construction of a Me-
mortal bridge across the Potomac to Arl-
ington was not seriously agitated during
the twelve months, but II was stated on
several occasions that the project is await
ing only a favorable opportunity to again
be pushed to the fore. The Aqueduct bridge
is ready TO carry trolley traffic, but no
cars have yet been run across the structure.

THE TRoTTING TURF.

Al Thomas the trainer and driver, has
purchased the pacing gelding Stein. 2O6.
md will take him down the line again next
wear. The first race the son of Joe Daily
won last season was the $1,000 purse for
the 20 class at Hartford, driven by Mr..
Thomas, although the gelding was cam
paigned by Ed Geers early in the season.
He paced the third mile in 200, his pre-
yious record being 2.09la. At the state
fair in Syracuse he won a great race and
surprised the trottlng world by defeating
such PAGERS as The Friend, Ethel Mac,
Geary and Ben F., finishing first in the
first, thidr and fifth heats In POI. 2.08 and
20TA, respectively.
He obtained his present mark OF 2,o6 IN
the $1,000 purse for the zoe class pace
at Cincinnati.

Major Deimar 159N, which passed through
the Old Glory sale in New York last month.

REAL FOOT BALL REFORM.
Growing Popularity of the Association
Game

Seeker" foot ball continues to grow in
public favor. This tendency is marked es-
pecially by the rapid strides toward the
adoption of this form OF foot ball in many
of the colleges that object to the
American game because of It's roughness
An intercollegiate ''socker' league has al
ready been formed In the east by Columbia,
Haverford, Harvard Cornell and Pennsyl-
vania- Yale and Princeton have both
called for players, and are expected to en-
ter the league shortly. Fred II Milne has
given e cup to be contested for by these
colleges, and Sir Ernest Cecil CechTans. an
English patron of sports. has offered a cup
for International games between colleges of
America and England.
The Universities of Chicago and Califor-
MIA recently brought the same game into
prominence by calling for candidates. and
the latest reports have 1t that all the big
colleges of the western coast. including the
University of Oregon, California, Leland
Stanford and Colorado. had entered a
league, the purpose of which is to introduce
the game on American fields.

REVIEW OF THE YEAR.
Sermon by DR.. Radcliffe of New York
Avenue Presbyterian Church.

DR.. Wallace Radcliffe pastor Of the
New York Avenue Presbyterian Church,
gave his annual review from his pulpit of
the years history at the morning service
yesterday.
"All who have died are consciously or IN
consciously helpers in the war Of ultimate
triumph of light and liberty and peace"
In art, in the drama, in music, in science,
in statecraft. In law, In literature, in
scholarship, in military annals, In philan-
thropy, In sociality in all departments of
activity. DR.. Radcliffe enumerated long
list of those who have given their lives dur
ing the year to their work and who have
been called to stop.
Confident of the purpose which underlies
all events and hopeful of conditions as they
are DIR. Radcliffe said:
THE war goes on, but all are present
or accounted for. Struggle. tears. blood.
crash. with here and there a bivouac and
now and then a defeat, but with every
year reinforcements and advance toward
the ultimate triumph of light, liberty and
peace. Over the smoke OF Mukden and
Port Arthur the rainbow of promise and
peace. Japan energies a new nation, dis
enthralled and hopeful. Out of the con-
fusion of Russia emerge order and liberty.
Norway addresses itself to Independent
national life France breaks the shackles
Of ecclesiasticism.
I'm America political and commercial up
heaval makes for righteousness. The cry
of tainted money is the echo from an
disposed to correct its brutality and con-
fess its anachronism. The Scotch church
controversy is settling itself on the basis
of the square deal. The Berlin Cathedral
and the American federative council speak
their characteristic word for the reunion
of Christendom and the Welsh revival in
tensifies throughout the world the fact and
power of the things unseen and eternal.

LOCAL NEW SP APERS

An important happening in the newspaper
world during the year was the purchase Of
u controlling interest In the Washington

change In ownership marked a very impor-
tant period in newspaper development in
Washington.
On January The Star was able to issue
an extra telling of the fall of Port Arthur.
This was the first announcement of the fact
that was made anywhere In this country, or,
indeed, anywhere in the western world.
On March Is The Star announced the
forthcoming publication of its Sunday edt-
ton. which made its first appearance on
March IS. Thus. for the first time since its
foundation. The Star became seven-day
