Petworth On Fourth.

The Petworth Citizens Association Is
much opposed TO the proI osed plan OF
observing the Fourth OF jury in the Dis
trict and regards II as an insane
rather than a safe and sane" celebra-
ton.
At meeting last night, the last to be
held before September, it was declared
that the Commissioners had gone too
far in refusing to allow the sale Of fire
works and committee will request that
Petworth be allowed to celebrate in its
own way.
The association also adopted n resolu-
ton providing for the appointment of a
special committee to urge the purchase
of property near the Soldiers Home
for a park The property comprises 4l6
COO square feet and can be purchased
for $50 600
The Electric Railway Commission was
commended for taking up the matter

Gen. Frederick Dent Grant, elder son
OF President Grant, is now commando
Of the Department Of the East. He
married Miss HenOre, sister OF Mrs
Potter Palmer, OF Chicago Mrs. Fred
eTick Dent Grant is a woman Of many
social attachments and Is most ambl-
tiOus foe those belonging to that branch
OF the family. II IS understood that she
has never been especially friendly to
her nephew by marriage, AlRernOn Sar-
tOTis and, ike the others of that
branch Of the family 10 which she be-
longs, does not give her approval at this
late date to Miss Nellie Grants mar
rlage many years ago. Ulysses s.
Grant, Sd, son of Mr.. and Mrs. Fred
eTlck Dent Grant, married the daughter
of Secretary and Mrs. Root last year.
Mr.. SartOris, the displaced diplomat,
wrote a magazine story several years
ago that excorlated Washington society
ana created a sensation in inner circles
at the time. Mrs. Sartoris and her son
inherited a large estate from the grand
father of Aigernon Sartoris, jr. Sar-
toris' father died a number OF years
ago.
There has been more or less family
feeling IL is reported, since the Grant
Sartoris marriage. and this was accen-
tuated when the estate of the widow
OF President Grant was apportioned
after her death.
