the choral society Of Washington has

Efforts are being made to secure the
services of John Philip Sousa, who
with his wife and daughter, is at
present at Homestead Hotel. at Hot
springs, Va, within easy reach of

how far these negotiations have pro-

appear in concert at jamestown on
the occasion Of the visits of the for

commercial Importance of accepting
the organizations contention that no
less than $5O,0OO.000 a year be ex-
pended in keeping open these high
ways of commerce. The saving TO
shippers in reduced freight rates each
year will more than pay for this ex-
penditure.
Figures just issued by the depart
ment of commerce and labor show
that the sales abroad of canned meats
have fallen of enormously. During
the seven months ending February
1st the exports amounted to S4,S2O,-
2S9, about so per cent less than dur
ing the same period of the previous
year. This is believed to be due
largely to recent agitation, and the
government is somewhat worried
over this remarkable falling off in
this especial branch of its export
trade. That the administration be-
lieves something should be done to
check this unsatisfactory condition
aboard, is evidenced in the fact that
President Roosevelt has agreed to
open the Packers exposition, which
is to be held at the Coliseum in Chi
cago on May /. Efforts are now
making to have practically all the
foreign representatives here attend
the exposition to see for themselves
the processes of meat-packing and
also the packing OF other foods
dairy, cereals. vegetable and fruit.
The packers have reached the con-
clusion that the best way to meet the
is to take the public into
their confidence, and by actual DEM
show that their methods
now are beyond reproach. Not only
packers and consumers will receive
the benefit of this publicly, but the
growers of beef, pork, vegetables,
fruit and grain, and the dairymen
also will share in the good effects |

LeFge cencourae Attends obsequiex
OF Joseph Howard

The funeral services of Mr.. Joseph
Howard were conducted yesterday
afternoon at O'Clock from First Bap-
fist church by the pastor, Rev. o. P.
Gilbert, assisted by Rev. J. P. Ward
law of First Methodist, and quite a
large eoncourse of sorrowing friends
and relatives Joined in paying this
final tribute of love and esteem. The
death of Mr.. Howard was peculiarly
sad, as he was i'll but a few weeks, re-
turning TO his home here from south
Georgia where he had been employed
recently. Mr.. Howard was twenty
seven years of age and for many years
had been an operator and Office mana
ger for the Western Union Telegraph
Co. Of genial disposition, he made
warm friendships and was very gener
orally esteemed, Besides his mother
and brother, Mr. A. B. Howard, he is
survived by his wife, their only child
having died some time ago. The
funeral services yesterday were con-
Guided at Oakgrove Cemetery.

$4,000 Is ADDED To

ERECTION OF sulLoIN0 BEGINS
When subscriptions Reach the Re
qulted Amouut-st Meeting OF 0cx-
sn Citizens Sunday Night SIS, 900
Additional 10 Given.

Five thousand dollars in lump sum
is the handsome addition just made to
the building fund of the Americas
Young Mems Christian Association,
and encouraged by this liberal sub
scription that handsome building here
seems fully assured.
Rapidly the subscriptions approach
the full amount required.
And the day this desired end is ac-
complished will witness the laying of
brick in the foundation walls of what
will be, eventually, one of the hand
soonest buildings in the city.
Already the Association had a large
sum subscribed-nearly double the
amount of the first estimate of cost of
building-and TO this goodly total So
600 was raised at meeting of a dozen
citizens held Sunday evening.
These gentlemen, enthusiasticrwo
ers for the Y NJ. c. A, met at the resi-
dence of Mr.. Will c. Carter, on Lee
street, for the purpose of discussing
the progress of Y, VI. c. A. work.
Several of these, all men OF very
modestImeans, had already given lib
orally to the Y. NJ c. A. building fund,
but enthused and inspired in the hope
of success they again went down in
their pockets and gave more to the
grand cause they represent,
Tt was prayerful, working body of
young men, the kind who do things
when they try
At present the Y. NJ. c. A. has a sub
scription list amounting to $4,000.
which has been accomplished by hard
and unceasing work. This amount is
very largely subscribed by men of mod
est means who have given literally of
their small store.
The Association desires to erect a
building costing $50, 600, and when this
| amount is well in sight beginning will
be made. The work is now two-thirds
| accomplished, and the gentlemen feel
sure that the additional So 900 can be
very easily raised.
This good year 1907 is going to be a
history making one for progressive
Americas. Let the completion of the
Y. NJ. C. A. building be numbered
with our other great accomplishments
