which the veterans will fraternize in
the National Capital. special effort is
being made to bring here the great
Union leaders of the war
Among these are the only two living
corps commanders, Gen. James Fl. Will
son of Wilmington. Del, and Gen. Gran
vile NJ. Dodge Of Council Bluffs, Iowa

Ames of Massa chusetts, Gen. D. McM
Gregg of Pennsylvania. Gen. Louis A.
Grant of Minnesota. Gen. j. Warren
Keifer of Ohio, and Brig. Gen. John 7.
Wilder of Knoxville, Tenn.
Gen. Osterhaus, who was a division
commander and temporary commander
of the 18th Corps during Shermans
march from Atlanta to the sea, has
been especially anxious to be with his
old comrades at the coming reunion. He
is living in Mannheim, Germany, and al
though advanced in years. he is rugged
and healthy. He is the father of Rear
Admiral Osterhaus, retired. The war in
Europe. however, may prevent the

ANXIETY FOR SCHOONER.
Four-Masted Craft Long Overdue
From Rio de Janeiro.

According to reports anxiety is again
felt in shipping circles for the safety
of the four-masted schooner Florence
NJ. Penley, bound to Baltimore from
Rio de Janeiro, via Barbados, which has
now been nearly a month out from the
latter port. The Penley, after deliver
ing a cargo of coal at Rio and taking
board a return load of manganese ore,
left Rio June Is, bound to the Chesa-
peake. Days and weeks passed and moth
ing was heard from the vessel, and she
was about given up as lost when the
news came that she had put into Bar
bados for water and provisions. AS the
run from Barbados to the capes should
have been made in about three weeks,
and it is known that the vessel was in
the path of a tropical hurricane, fears
for her safety are again felt She has
now been over three months out from
Rio.
The four-masted schooner Malcolm
Baxter, jr., en- route from Rio to Balti-
more with manganese, has put into
Bermuda in distress, the result of her
encounter with a tropical hurricane.
Both the Penley and Baxter formerly
brought ice here from Maine.

Gratitude, which the Potomac and
Chesapeake Steamboat Company recent

Wakefield is having boiler repairs
made that will keep her out of service
for several days. On the return to serv-
ice of the Wakefield on the Nomini

place on the route between this city

WORK DONE ON SUNDAY
CRITICISED IN SERMON
Rev. John MacMurray Cites Labor
Being Performed for U. S. on
Interior Building.

Saying that the commercalsm of the
Sabbath is the greatest menace of the
working man, Rev. John MacMurray, in
a sermon at Union Methodist Episcopal
Church, last night, declared that he and
others wondered by what authority the
contractors constructing the new In
terror building were turning Sunday
into an eleven-hour work day. BY so
doing, he said, they were disturbing
the rest and quiet of the Sabbath day
and breaking down by their example
all law upon the subject as enacted in
the several states.
eff this company can do this work
for the United States government Sum-
day, then why not permit the contrac-
tors who do the street repairing and
building to work Sunday also, and why
not permit contractors on private build
ings to do the same?" he asked. why
should this company be allowed to do
what other contractors on other work
are not permitted to do?''
''1f the Sunday is not to be observed
in the District of Columbia and by the
government. why not publish that fact
to the people of the United States, who,
I believe, are not yet willing that
Sunday should be desecrated in this
wholesale manner, at the seat of gov
ernment?
"If there is hurry why cannot the
builders increase the working force and
put two or three shovels at work, and
If necessary why should not the au-
thorities having the matter in charge
require them to do this and do their
work within the limits of the ordinary
day and the six days assigned to that
kind of work in the week?
"If there is no law upon the subject
in the District of Columbia, Is it not
time the Commissioners enacted such
law on Sunday observance, and If there
is such a law ought it not to be enforc-
ed o''

But in his early years he felt an
aching void beneath his belt. No
doubt the alecks used to say, as
they watched William go his way,
ut is an evil thing. in sooth, to
see him fool away his youth! His

start to do some useful work. He

While the most brilliant constella-
