He was the son of the late Stephen and Ann Fywler, of blessed memory. "He harf-been a, resident of this city practically all his life and one of Its most useful and loyal cttlsens. Since December last the deceased had been dn falling health and for the past four months confined to Ms .bed. The end was peaceful and tranquil. When seventeen years of age Mr. Fowler answered the call of bis native land. He was a member of Company "B" and served with cred it during the latter part of that noted conflict. For twenty-seven years he was connected with the police force of Washington and at one time was proprietor of the Hotel Benard. He also occupied the position as assist ant recorder. At the time of his death Mr. Fow ler had the distinction of being the only person living here who wit nessed the suicide of Washington Carrowan In the court honss In the{ year 1857. Mr. Fowler was also ths second oldest native born cltl ssn. He was happily married to Miss Latham Wbltehurst In June 1882, one son being the result of this un ion In the person of Mr. 8tephen Fowler.

Many Excellent Numbers. In the opinion of practically ev eryone who has attended the varlout performances of the Chautauqua, thie season'? events are far super to those given here last y?*r. Lar ? crowda are testifying their appre ciation of the entertainments and the attendance so Car greatly ex ceeds that of last year. Saturday's program was a most interesting one. The Chautauqua entertainers put on a splendid pro gram, consisting of unusually clever readings by Miss Elsie Ma? "Gordon, some skillful banjo playing by Mtsa ! Judith Lyndon and talented singing! by both. Mr. Kauppl's performance op the cornet was Te^^cyi *7 j hearty applause and forced to give several eneor??.) Bennett Springer's magic work proved de lightful to both old and young and his various tricks were cleverly done. Motion pictures concluded the even ing's entertainment. Has Pedaled 29,583 Miles Ab. Alllgood, Jr., who resides a short distance from the city and who Is in the employ of the Mutual Ma chine Company, has pedaled a dis tance of his bicycle, since beginning his work in Washington, that equals! the slrrumlereore of the globe and then Teaches over from here to San Pranelsco. Mr. Alllgood has been In the employ of the Mutual for in and one^alf years. H* travels a distance of 9 miles every day. There are 3IS working days In the year, or a total of 8,2S7 for the 10 1-2 years. Multiplying the 3,187 by I. It will be found {bat Mr. Alllgood has travelled 29,583 mil**. / A bicycle will travel about 10 fe?t for every push on the pedalu. Those who care to figure this out, will find that Mr. Alllgood's leg# have pumped up and down 18,619.824 times, which, we might remark, Is POME pumping. I Some persons, who are better *blr? to think in "feet" Instead of "m1le?" win find that the distance travelled by Mt. Alllgood amounts to 158, 198,240 feet. Por the benefit of those who would like to have this reduced to Inches, we might add that the distance Is equal t^ 1.874, 878,880 Inohes. .

At the Joint services of -the Wash ington churches, which were held yesterday afternoon at the Chautau qua tent, O. C. Huntington, later-1 state secretary of Y. M. C. A. work.! made an Interesting address on the prospects for Y. M. C. A. work In Washington. A large congregation i was present and &lr. Huntington's word? received the closest of at-' tent Ion. "In order to have the right kind of a building, with the proper equip ment, It would oost about $50,000," J stated Mr. Huntington. "In add!-1 tlon to that. It w4uld cost about1 five or six thousand a year to keep this kind of a building up. Wanh lngton look* Uke a moat prosperouu city but I honestly believe that the burden, of erecting and maintaining such a building would be an ex ceedingly heavy one to bear, and 1 wouldn't for a minute advise the, people of Washington to consider a gliding at the present time. It has been tried In other cities of thin nise and even larger, and in every case it hss either proven a failure or been a most difficult proposition to maintain. "Now regarding rented quartern, it would take over $2.500 a year to keep them up amd we have found In our work that the boys do not take very eagerly to narrow crowded quarters. Tho result Is that al though a Y. M. C. A. In rented rooms may thrive for a month or two. the members would soon lone Inters* and the movement would gradlally die out. I believe that hat bewi your experience here before. "What I would suggest for Wash ington at the present lime, would be what we call a 'Community Y. ST C. A.' Secure the services of a ca pable man. experienced in this lin of work, and let him lpbor among the boys in the schools, the mills, the Sunday schools and the church es. No equipment or butld/ng would be nec*?essry. but at the same time, a great good would be accomplish ed. He would form different boys' clubs. Interest them In athletics and conduct the work along these lines. This method ha? proven very suc cessful in othjr cities where it hap been tried and I believe it would be lust the thing for Washington. It wouldn't put the residents of th* elty to any great expense, but at tbs same time, great good could bs wrought among the jounger boyi and a Chrlstlag influenos establish .4" r After the ervlce, a number of men remained to talk over the mat ter With Mr. Huntington. It was de cided to call a meeting this morning at eleven o'clock In the Savings A Trust Co. building and talk over the matter farther. MKOTPr? TH18 MORNTWO.

The Germans, during the last seven weeks have driven the Russians back for a distance of over 100 miles. They are now within seventy mile? of Lemberg and the fall of this city Is ^pected by the end of this week. The resistance of thn Russian forces Is of a weak nature and Is as noth ing compared to the steady advance of the Teutons. - .

People in other cities are also said to b? burning their homes and leaving for points further away from the border.
