Four cases of death from the cause mentioned have been reported here, the victims being Jas.

In Baltimore, since the morning of July 4th, out of 24 cases where boys were shot by toy pistols, 11 deaths have occured. In all these cases the wounds at the tine of infliction were regarded as trifling. They soon healed up and were almost forgotten until the boys commenced complaining of headaches.

Last evening Mr. Entwisle received from nication sent by the church trustees to the Dis- trict Commissioners, in which, after acknowl- edging the receipt of the notice sent by the in- spector, they say, “We would state that we are especially desirous that the spire of the church should be secure beyond every cavil; and we deny that ‘it is now about two feet out of per- pendicular and the construction so defective as to make it dangerous in a heayy northwest i storm.’ The examinatioh of the Inspector was entirely er-parte and without notice to us.

SCREENS PUT UP BEFORE A vows. Judge Wylie, inthe Equity Court, yesterday, GHBOR’S WIN- heard and decided the case of Clara Wheeler and husband azt. for injunction to restrain defendants from con- tinuing certain screens before plaintiff's win- dows. Mr. R. K. Elliot appeared for complain- | ge Smith in his own behalf. The | parties are the owners of lot 7, square 728, front- ing on East Capitol street, which they bought from the Carroll heirs, and it is claimed that the | alley way of four feet between was an casement ilhelmina M. E. Smith—bill e § belonging to both of the lots, and that when Wheeler built he encroached fifteen inches on this alley way and that his windows overlooked the premises of Smith. The Smiths then erected screens on poles in front of Wheeler's windows, and the latter brought a bill to compel Smith to remove them. Judge Wylie, after remarking upon the duty of neighbors to live at peace with each other, decided that neither the walls nor poles had a legal right in the alley, and after an understanding between the parties that Smith would remove his screens and Wheeler would place reversed blinds on his windows he made an order directii ith to remove the obstruc- tions from the alley way and made the injunc- tion to that effect. 2a Aas Pienics, Excursions, &c.

A party of colored men, employed on the sand boats at 17th street wharf, got together ina cabin of one of the boats on the evening of July 5th, and, after indulging pretty freely in bad whisky, commenced to play cards. During the progress of the game, a dispute arose between Joseph Bunks, in the employ of Mr. John Lord, and Wm. Harris, employed by another dealer. The dispute was finally adjusted for the time being, but not to the satisfaction of Harris, who, after the game broke up, pursued Banks, and while the latter was unaware of his presence, threw a large stone, striking him on the head, and knocking him senseless. In this condition he lay for some time, and his companions be- coming alarmed, notified the police, who had him removed to Providence Hospital in the am- bulance. Banks has been getting worse eyer since, instead of mending, and, although every attention was paid to him, he died last evening, and his remains were sent to the almshouse for burial at the city expense. In the meantime, the coroner was notified, and witnesses to the act summoned for an inquest, to be held at the alms- house to-day. It has been ascertained that Banks’ skull was fractured by the blow, which caused his death. | Harris is at large, but will probably be caught, and held to answer. THE CORONER'S INQUEST. The coroner's jury after hearing the testimony found a verdict that death was caused by a wound on the head made by a stone thrown by William Harris the 5th of July. Upon this verdict a commitment was made out by the coroner in the event of Harris’ arrest. He is still at large. A Manpamvs AGAINST THE District.—Judge James yesterday, in the Circuit Court, ordered a mandminus to issue against the Commissioners of the District of Columbia directing them to pay to the Washingten and Georgetown Rail- road Company $1,513.80, with interest from May 1, 1874, ae bers 4 ae ake Se obtained against them AI , 1875, for the grading and parking done by the company on B street. ————-—_ Two ScppEN DEsTHS.-The body of Dantel Stunden, a white — found under a tree, corner 19th street and Virginia avenue yesterday tion by Officer Connelly and gla.
