WARRANTS FOR DEALERS.
Charge That Food Offered for Sale
Is Not Screened.

Warrants have been issued from the Po-
lice Court against about a dozen produce
dealers along Louisiana avenue. charging
them with the violation of the new police
regulation requiring the screening of arti-
cles offered for sale. The warrants were
placed in the hands of the police yesterday
and 1t Is expected that several of the de-
PENDANTS will be before the Police Court
Monday.
In the Information. filed by inspectors of
the health Office. it is alleged that the de-
PENDANT did then and there conduct GER
tain stall in front OF No. on said Lou
isiana avenue where food Is offered for
sale and is sold. and did fail and neglect to
cause said food to be screened effectually
so as to prevent flies and other insects from
obtaining access to said food
The warrants are the first under the new
law. Inspectors reported to the health Of
flee that food was exposed for sale on
counters and stands on the market line and
that many flies and similar insects collected
on the food. Therefore. in the interest Of
health and to prevent the spread OIL disease.
1t is declared. the new regulation was de-
ctded on by the Commissioners.
Several months ago a regulation was
adopted requiring that candy and similar
products sold from carts on the street be
covered with glass to keep out dirt, and
there have been several prosecutions under
that regulation.

THE CHORAL SOCIETY.
Meeting of the Board Of Managers and
It's Results,

The board of managers of the Choral
Society held its regular monthly meeting
on Thursday evening last all the members
who were in the city being present. TIL,
chief business transacted was the discus
sion Of the program for the coming sea-
son. 1t was decided that IL possible the
first concert should be given on the 18th of
December. This will be a performance OF
the Messiah" under the direction of Mr..
Percy s. Foster, and 1t is hoped to give
1t in Convention Hall.
For this occasion an extra chorus will
be enlisted to celebrate the twenty-fifth
anniversary of the founding of the society.
A report was received from Miss Mary A.
Cryder, the business representative of the
society, who is now in New York. giving
the names of probable soloists, a number of
whom have been heard by her recently
The question Of orchestra also was con-
sidered and negotiations were announced
as in progress with one of the prominent
orchestras of the country with the view
of enlsting its services for this concert.
The second concert. it is expected, will
be given about the close of February. and
Redemption" The Mission Club of the
congregational Church, under whose as
sistance the Choral Society gave its first
concert last year, has been negotiating
again with the society this year with a
view to a like cooperation in the presen-
tation Of Gounods Redemption" 1t Is
not yet certain whether arrangements can
be made to this end This concert will be
under the direction of Rev. George G.
Daland, music director Of St. Johns
Church. Georgetown and IT is expected that
the assistance Of a number of local musi
clans can be obtained as a nucleus of an
orchestra to be used In connection with the
church o-gan If the concert should be given
for the benefit of of the societies of
the Congregational Church.
The plans for the third concert are nsces
sarily dependent upon the settlement Of
the place of giving the second. If no place
should be available during the winter
months, then the performance of Gounod's
Re denption'' would have to wait until
about the last Of April. when either a
theater could be rented the use Of the
Continental Memorial Hall be again OBJ
tanned through the courtesy of the D. A. r.
Much interest has been shown in the
work of the society by various musicians
both here and elsewhere. and numerous ap-
plications have been received for the posi-
ton of conductor and were discussed at
this meeting. 1t is settled. however. that
no permanent appointment of conductor
will be made during the coming year, and
the selection Of a conductor for the third
concert is left in allegiance pending the
determination of the question whether 1t
would be practicable to give more than two
concerts during the season.
