pect to have the same ready for the build
ing committee within a very short time.
Promptly upon the acceptance of the
plans. contracts for the work will be
given out and the building pushed to
completion with all possible speed. The
success of this new organization, which
occupies one of the finest sites in Mount
Pleasant. at the corner of 10th street and
Columbia road has been so great that the
temporary building the lot is not suff1-
cient to accommodate the Sunday school
and congregation. This fact has made
necessary some slight changes in the ar
rangement of the interior. whereby addi-
tional accomm odations may be secured
until the completion of the new building.
In addition TO their own local work, this
church has recently distributed over $1,000
to benevolent objects outside of Its mem

Dirty Streets.
} the Editor of The Star

Ae OF Inc StaF.
Permit me to call attention to the con-
dition of our streets. l have lived here
always, and 1t mortifies me to hear as l
have heard from Americans and foreign
ers alike. the comment. "Washington is a
very beautiful city. but so dirty" 1t
Is impossible to deny this. We are ac-
customed to shelter ourselves behind the
plea OF insufficient appropriation for
street cleaning. and so far as the road
ways are concerned this may be true An
immense Improvement would. however, be
at once effected II a sense Of personal
pride in the matter could be awakened
If each resident would see to the moving
of his own grass-that the sidewalks were
carefully swept. and that no fruit refuse
or torn paper were thrown upon the
street, by himself or his family there
would be far less ground for criticism.
The Star is a powerful influence. 1t Is
read daily in thousands of homes and by
all classes. By it the police department,
parents. teachers, children and servants
might be reused to sense of personal
responsibility In this matter. In the
past many wrong things have been made
right by it. May we not hope that this
most needed change may also be effected.

STREET RAILWAY COLLISION.
Capital Traction and Washington
Traction Cars Come Together.

Three employees and two passengers were
injured last night when cars on the Capt.
tai Traction and Washington Traction
companies came together at the intersec
ton of Indiana avenue and LIST street. The
motormen on the cars were so painfully
injured that they had to be removed to
the Emergency Hospital. Two ladies' said
to live in Baltimore, were injured, and
they received treatment at Nelson's drug
store. 1t Is reported that the accident was
caused by the failure of the Washington
Traction car to stop before attempting to
go over the crossing. Passengers in both
cars became excited when they saw that
a collision was unavoidable and some of
them hurried from the cars. Only the two
ladies We're injured, however, and their in
jurieS were slight.
r. T. Murray, motorman on the Wash
ington Traction car, sustained injuries to
his side and head, while A. l.. Street, who
was serving in a similar capacity on the
other car. was thrown to the side of his
car and injured about his head. Both
men were removed to the hospital and
given treatment. ]. 2. Pilkton, conductor
on the Washington Traction car, was
thrown from his car and slightly injured,
but it was not necessary for him to go
to a hospital and receive treatment Both
cars We're damaged and traffic on the road
was delayed for a short while.

Horseshoes are usually regarded as
lucky. but Thomas Byrne does not share
that view John Suber was arrested by
Policeman Brennan of the ninth precinct
for using a horseshoe as a weapon in an
assault upon Byrne. When arraigned
Suber pleaded not guilty and asked for
a trial by jury. The hearing was con-
tinued.
The injury to Byrne. 1t is alleged by the
police. came as the climax of fight in a
small blacksmith shop near the corner
of 10th and H streets northeast yester-
day. The two men had a dispute over
a debt Of So. Suber claiming that he had
paid the money and Byrne insisting that
he had not. The dispute ended in the
use of several horseshoeing tools. Suber,
it is stated by the police. first seized
knife and started for Byrne with that.
Byrne quickly armed himself with large
hOof file and a duel with those weapons
followed. Finally Suber was disarmed
Then he picked up the horseshoe and
before Byrne could dodge, he planted 1t
on his skull. cutting a long. deep CASH
The wound bled profusely, but the fight
continued, blood being spattered around
over the floor
Policeman Brennan heard OF the affair
about that time. and running to the shop
he quickly separated the belligerents.
Byrne, whose clothing had become satu-
rated with blood. was hurried to the
Casualty Hospital for treatment. Suber
was arrested and taken to the ninth pre-
cinct station by Policeman Brennan.

EXCURSIONS.

The only route from the National capital
to jamestown giving opportunity to view
the beautiful Potomac, Chesapeake bay
and Hampton roads is via the modern
steamers of the Norfolk and Washington
Steamboat Company. which gives a dou-
bic daily service. Sailing hours are at 8
m. and 6:3O pm. and every trip usually
finds the capacity of the boats taxed. The
comfort and convenience of the travelling
public are amply provided for by their
speed. safety. well-appointed staterooms
and excellent dining service. Connections
maintained at Norfolk add to their popu-
larity with tourists. Rail connections may
be made for all points, and steamer con-
nections for New York. Providence and
Boston. On the southbound run these
boats land passengers directly at the
Jamestown exposition pier The uptown
ticket office is at 705 14th street, the
wharf office at foot of 7th street.
