Some of those who were present were nauseated at the terrible sight. It was ob- served by the physicians that the sk'n of the victim was pecullarly thin; that there Was a laver of fat or adipose tissue (almost tthe jail here, yes- an inch in thickness) under it, and the spine was remarkably slender for so heavy a built man. It was observed, too, that thp rope had cut in just under the chin, and the rope, striking the atlas, took off the’ skull as clean as ita knife had been used. There was much comment as to the cause of the mishap, and attempts were made to recall other sirtiar occurrences. It was stated at first that there was but one ether sich ord, which took place in Boston some seven or eight years since. One such oceurrenes took place ia Dub- Wn some years azo, and there have been one or two cases in England, but the mest unaccountable lumbus, Obio, in 1857. were two men man weighing n ) pounds and the other small man weighing about 129 pounds.

B. Adams and oilers were present, and allexpressed the opinion that this was the most remarkable instance of the weakness of muscular tissue they had ever observed or read of, and it was totally at varlance with the theory of medical officers of prisons that tue stability of the head {s not endangered with a hemp rope of five-elzhihs inch or over if the fll does not exceed the height of the man, and in this case the fall was but 4 feet 7 laches—over a foot less than is height. FORMER EXECUTIONS IN THE DISTRICT. ‘The following notes of former execuiions in the District under the clvil law may not be vn- interesting in thts connection: Daniel E. Woodward was exeented in the jatl yard, corner of 4th and G streets, on Septembe 2, 1883, for the murder of his wife. and met his fate calmly and with apparent indiffereace. James Powers was hung ai the old jali on the 26th of June, 1562, for the murder of EA. Lutz, of Baltimore. This grew out of a difieulty In a bar-room. and the execution was done by Mar- shal Selden mally.

TOM SMOTHERS INDICTED FOR RAPE. ‘Te-day in the Criminal Court, the grand jury presented an indictment against Thomas Smothers, colored, for rape and assault to com- mit a rape on the person of Miss Lena Leins, on the 27th of February, iss0, based on the testt- ory, a Miss eee, Lo cemmiper Deane hogue, Mary Offenstein, jr., Magy’ Jooue er. F. Grass, Mal Lippard, Lizzie Butterhoff, and Andrew Creamer. Smothers, who had been confined in fail from the Sunday morning after the occurrence, had been sent for and was brought into court at 11:40 o'clock, his head towering even above that of Perry Carson. The prisoner 1s six feet four inches high. He ae po at the bar, and when asked by the clerk if his name was Thos. Smothe ’s, he replied “* Yes, sir; that’s my name, sir. Some call me Thomas M., and some eali me Tom. My name is Smothers.” When the indictment had been read he pleaded not guilty in a firm voice. Ithaving been stated that Mr. L. Browning had withdrawn from the case, the court as- signed Mr. A. B. Williams as his counsel, and set the case for Tuesday morning next. Smothers, on being removed to the bor, seemed to be fearful that there was some danger, for as the hand-cuffs were being placed upon him he trembled violently. By 12 o'clock he was again on his way to the van being guarded by two bailiffs, and with the one who rode in the rear of the van Smothers conversed on the way down. When crossing over the commons hear the jafl, the van was suddenly sopped by the driver to rearrange the harness, and it was noticed that Smothers fairly jumped the len: of the vehicle to the front, as if ap- rehensive that a party had attacked the van He was landed at the jall a few minutes after 12 o'clock. The Wright-Delano Assault Case. SENTENCE OF IMPRISONMENT AND FINE. This morning, in the Criminal Court, Judge James, in the case of Judge John W. Wright coavicted of assault, under Indictment for a deadly assault on ex-Secretary Columbus Del- ano, on the 12th of October, isi7, the motion for & new trial was argued by Mr. F. P. Stanton, for Mr. W. and Mr. Perry for the government. The court everruled this motion, as also the motion in arrest of judgment, and notice of an appeal was flied. Judge James thereupon imposed the sentence. saying that if 1t were not for the defendant’s physical condition the imprisonment would be much greater; but in view of that fact he would make the imprison- ment thirty days in jatl. with a fine of $1.000. Mr. Stanton asked that the execution of the sentence be delayed, that they might procure a writ of habeas corpis. The court remarked that there were cases where sentence had been suspended, but those were capital and penitentiary cases, and he saw no reason for his interposition wit’. the usual course of the law. Mr. Stanton moved that defendant be admit- ted to bail pending appeal, but the court over- ruled this motion, and defendant excepted to the ruling of the court. THE JUDGE SENT TO JAIL. Subsequently application was made to Chiet Justice Cartter for a writ of habeas corpus, Dut Judge Cartter advised that he go to jail first, and _— application to the General Term on Monday. Judge Wright, on receiving this announce- ment, invited Marshal Douglass to accompany him to jail, but Perry Cars and the judge, taking riage, was driven to the jail, where he arrived about 1 o'clock. Gen. Crocker, him, and Judge Wright asked if fhe could have aroom and for a month. Considerable sympathy is felt for Judge Wright in this matter in consequence of his ad- vanced age and broken health, and from the fact that in the attack he made upon Delano who sa much younger man, he seems to hav acted under the impulse of a strong sense of personal wrong from what he believed to b> vindictive persecution by Delano. Judge Wright took quite a prominent part fn the troublous times of the early history of Kansis. He has resided for some years In Washington, ud though rather impulsive and free-spok.a, he is heid in much esteem as a kind hearted well-disposed citizen. ee The Johnson Homicide. In the Criminal Court, Judge James, yester- day atfernoon, John H. Johnson, (.vhite,) who killed Joseph Johnson, (colored,) last Monday night, was indicted for murder by the grand Jury yesterday, and was at once ied. H's counsel, A. B. Williams, moved a postponement of the arraignment, urging that haste was tn- seemly in so grave a case. The todictment had oe been found, the counsel for the accused had ad no time to examine it, and the accused before pleading to the indictment wished to look at and consider it. The court declined to defer the arraignment, and when the indictment was read to Johnson and he was asked the formal question, “Are you guilty or not guilty?” ‘e stood mute and refused to answer. ‘i'he -9u.t thereupon ordered a plea of “not guilty” to be entered, and the District attorney gave notice ss he would call the case for trial next Thurs- day. Selling Oleomargariue for Butter. Maria Stoneall, a woman professing to sell country butter, was arrested in the Center Mar- ket this morning, at the Instance of the Health Officer, and taken to the Police Court, on the charge of selling oleomargarine tn violation of the law, Samples of the article sold by this’ woman—who states that. she comes from the country near Mount Vernon, Va.; that she makes her own butter and brings it, together with butter made by her neighbors, to our markets—were shown. Satm- ples have twice been procured of this woman’s stock, and upon microscopical and analytical examinations proved to be the imitation called oleomargarine. She was arrested this morning on a warrant sworn out by Inspector Bohrer, of the Health Office, and taken to the court, when she was required to give bonds fora hearing next Wednesday morning. Other parties carrying on this business have been noted by the health office inspectors, and as soon as this case 1s di3- Posed of by the Police Court arrests wi'l be made. The former case brought to trial by the health authorities was dismissed on the ground that the party was ignorant of the character of the butter. “In this case it ts thought that knowledge of fraud will be proven; if not, the law will most likely prove a dead letter, and further attempts to prosecute under it be aban- doned. ‘The practice of seiling oleomargarine as butter, or mixed with butter, is a growing evil in our markets, and if the law Is defective it Should be amended and made more stringent It is the general belief among the honest dealers and among the officials of the health office that there fs a regular system in vogue connected with this business, and that women living in this city and Alexandria are engaged in it, playing off as country women on the ignorani Mr. James Small, sealer ot weights and measures, is active In noting these frauds.

Later In the evening, Pistorio’s fine band appeared and gave the lodge and the order a serenade, which was the more heartily enjoyed because of its being # surprise. The supper was a first-class one.

At the Easter election the vestry of St. John's Episcopal church, on 16th street, was re-elected. ‘There was considerable talk at the election about the management of the affairs of the Parish. There was a rather lively discussion and some sharp words. A portion of the vestry differed with the rector, especially about the ehoir and the work tn the chapel of the churc! which Is on 22d street. ‘There was a meetiag of the vest last night. The rector, Rev. J. Vaughn tendered his resi; ion. It e Rn yakne Ve resolution regrettin leparture was A ‘committee of the vestry, coi of Mr. Chipman, Mr. Phillip, Judge Davis and Dr. Rey- burn, was appointed’ to look around for a new rector for church. Dr. Lewis has been in charge of St. John’s since 1865. There has fre- quently been differences between him and his congregation, but'there has been no quarreling. The meeting of the vestry last evening was very amicable. The choir of the church has, until recently, been composed entirely of male voices, The vestry changed it toa mixed cholr, against the protest of the rector. The Rever- end Mr. Clark, who conducts the services at the chapel which the church has erected on 22d street to accommodate the poorer portion of the parish was wanted by Dr. Lewis to assist him on _ Sundays. It was thought by others of the church that Mr. Clark should devote his Sundays to the chapel. This was another cause of difference. Dr. Lewis contended that he was unable to perform the Sunday services without assistance. There was also objection to the rector about some of his sermons. it being thought, that they were too poli.ical In their character. There was no wrangling in thechurch, however. Dr. Lewis was hot at home to-day when Tue star re- porter called. It was learaed from his friends that the reason he resigned was because he was unable to perform his daiies.

Robert W. a reali of the district couct for the eastern district of Virginia, at Alexan- dria, yesterday, on a writ of habeas us. It was argued for’ the priconers that as the war- rant ¢l the offense to have been com- mitted in the District of Columbia, and upon the Potomac river between Alexandria and Washington, the laws of the Untted States con- cerning piracy did not govern within that juric diction. Judge Hughes, in his opinion, atter showing how piracy came to be cognizable, not only by the admiralty but by local criminal courts, held that although Congress had vested criminal jurisdiction in the circuit and district courts of the United States, this jatisdiction was limited by the crimes act of 1790 to such crimes as are committed “out of the jurisdic- Uon of any paiiicular state.” The crime of robbery, such as in the present case, 1s cogni- zable by the proper court of the District of Co- lumbla for trying common law offenses, and that court would have its jurisdiction taken away and impaired, in contravention of the Revised Statutes, if a court of the United States should try this national offense of piracy. The offense for which the prisoners are held was not committed out of the jurisdiction of the District of Columbia. A LarcE display and variety of ladies end gents shoes.

Solomons, vice president of the Night Lodging House Association, has made a report to the District Commissioners, from which we gather that during the month or March there have been 558 occupants of beds, to whom 1,116 meals were furnished. Women and children, 35; whites, 506; colored, 52; able to read and write, 510; unable married, 15; vnmar- ried, 540; Americans, 32s; foreigners, 230. Of the Jatter there were Irish, 62; Germans, 48; English, 40; Canadians, 20; French, 13; Scotch, 17; Welsa, 7, Italians, 5; Danes, 6; other nationalities, 12. Their trades and professions arranged alphabet- ically ts as follows: Artists, blacksmiths, 23; bockbinders, 2; bakers, 18; bricklayers, 14; butchers, 16; bollermakers, 6; clerks, 14;'car- penters, 18; cooks, 12; cabinetmakers, 3; cigar- neers, 16; farmers, 24; firemen, 13; arnessmakers, 2, hosters, 8; iron- kK jewelers, 5; laborers, 1:5; machinists, 12; moulders, 8; newsboys, 2; oystermen, s: paint 99; plasterers, ‘11;/ plumbers,’ 9: printers, 11;’ pedlars, 7; railroad men, 1 school teachers, 3; sailors, 27; shoemakers, 20; stonecutters, 10; stonemasons, 8: stewards, 2 teamsters, 17; taliors, 3; telegraphers, 1; waiters, 17, and weavers, 13. Since the house has been Opened 23,345 persons have availed of the bene- fits of this practical and unobtrusive charity, and the amount of absolute good it has done is incalculable. For the guidance of the gen public it is proper to Staie that whenever a stranger presents himself, and says he is with- out means to provide for a night's lodging, di- rect him to the nearest police Station, where, if he be not known to the officer in charge as an unwortby person, he will be given a ticket of admission 9 the lodging-house, and upon it 1s given his description and sundry other data, Which effectually prevents the holder from 4 transferring it to another. When he presents this ticket at the house he fs again “looked over,” ane sometimes the case, he is found to be Ss a “beat,” and warned accordingly, or arrestcd under the vagrant law. If he is all right, he is given a plentiful supper, compelled to takea bath, and, placing his clothes without the dor- tnitory, is Seer ed with a clean night shirt and provided with a comfortable, single bed, iu a Warm and well ventilated room, and in the paaen he is again given a hearty meal and sent on his way rejoleing.

ARRESTED ON A CHARGE OF FORGERY.—Al- bert Brooke, employed as clerk by Colonel 8. pul ‘was before United States Commissioner C, Mills yesterday, charged with the forgery two money orders. The testimony showed that Brooke presented two money orders, one for $37. and the other for $50,20, at the city post office, each with the name of Mr. Suit forged upod them directing the payment to Mr. Brooke. The corgery, not being suspected the orders were cashed. This occu on the 8th of March. Some two weeks later Mr. E. N. Hunt. of Missis sippt, who had sext the orders, wrote to Colonel Suit, requesting to know why he had not. re- ceived credit for the amounts forwarded. This surprised Mr. Suit, who instituted an investiga- lion. In the meantime, Mr. S. H. Merrill, Su- perintendent of the money order bureau in the city post office, had discovered the furgery and turned the case over to Special Agent Hender- Son, which resulted in the arrest of Brooke's ‘Tuesday last on 7th street. He was removed to jail. At the examination yesterday Col Suit unwillingly stated that he had known Brooke from boyhood, and always confidently rusted him, and did not like to appear as his accuser. He asked that the amount of bail be made as light as possible. Brooke made a rav- pine statement to the effect that he had no in- tention of appropriating the money; he had been in the habit of signing Mr. Suit’s name. He had lost the money on bis way howe, and was trying to make up the amount when he was arrested. The bail was tixed at $1,500, which was furnished. THE McCarty Divorce Casg.—Yesterday in the Court in General Term the case of Victory McCarty against Justin I.

It is he who has kept alive, fed and developed the passion and pur- pose of the Liberal at and several months ago he had a full understanding with the Marquis of Harrington, as to the results of a triumph, if a triumph should be won.
