Mr. Editor: The weather continues

unpleasant weather, however, the city has
been unusually crowded with strangers.
The annual conclave of the order of the
Knights of tho Golden Eagle was held on
Tuesday and Wednesday, and about five
thousand uniformed members ot tho order
participated In the parade, which traversed
the principal streets of tho city, and was
reviewed by the President as It passed the
White House.
The event of tho week, however,- was the
ceremonies connected with the laying of
the corner-stone of tho new Divinity build
lng, the first of tho scries of buildings to be
erected upon the recently purchased site of
the Catholic University. Preparations had
been mado for celebrating this great event
In the history of the Catholic Church upon
craniracale. Invitations were sent lo
prelates of the chnrch in alt sections of the
country, and the President of the Unltep
States with his Cabinet had agreed to be
present. A monster procession had been
planned In which all of the Catholic so
cieties and members of the local Catholic
congregations wcro to participate, but the
raging storm which prevailed during the
day rendered it necessary to dispense with
tho procession. Notwithstanding the rain,
howeyer, more than llye thousand persons
were present at tho laying of the corner-
stone,,and the ceremonies wcro both Inter

Lieut. Gen. Philip H. Sheridan Is con

a serious attack of neryous prostration, due
to his recent extensive trip through the
west, where he has been to establish mili
tary posts. There Is much solicitude among
bis friends as lo his condition, and his
physicians are very reticent, but It Is known
that they have been In constant attendance
at his bedside since his first attack on
Wednesday last. As tho General has had
trouble with his heart In the past, the re
fusal upon the part of the physicians to
furnish the public with Information as to
his real condition has lead the public to In
fer that he is a very sick roan.
A patent was issued on Tuesday last up
on one of the most Ingenious Inventions of
modern times. Mr. John T. Klltan, the
Inventor, who Is a resident of northern
New York, has deyoted several years to Ihe
study of scenic changes and effects, and the
Invention which he has recently patented
consists of an arrangement of a series slats
upon which the scenes are painted, by
which it is rendered possible to change the
entire scene upon the stage, including both
wings and files within the one-tenth of a
second; thus obviating the necessity oj
either turning down lights or lowering
curtains In making changes In scenery. A
series of scenes may be produced In rapid
succession, or a portion of a scene changed
without affecting the rest of It. A ghost
bird or animal my be caused to appear at
will at any desired point, or a mere speck
upon the horizon may be made to gradual
ly Increase In size until It appears as a full
sized ship In the Immediate foreground.

lias been upon exhibition In the city, has
been the subject of wonder and admhation
of those who have seen it. Tl

Tho one hundredth session of the Gen
oral Assembly of the Presbyterian church
held In this city for tho past two weeks has
proyedan Intensely Interesting event In
religious circles; the occasslon has been
more significant than that of any previous
assembly of these church dignitaries. It
has done much toward the union of the
old and new school of this sect, and under
this union It Is safe to say that the church
will make greater strides In tho matter of
Increasing Its membership than It has done
heretofore In America. The notable eyent
ot these' sessions was the presence of
President Cleveland last H'ednesday even
ing. He graced the occasion with a level
headed, common senso speech for which
he has become so noted, Frances, too, has
been in regular attendance for one week.

about Jfoo.oo worth o! work on my No, 1 Model

find my Model Press as good as new. The
