Masosic TeMPLe.—T! and sociable of the annual entertainment HAD TO SAY ABOUT THEM—THE WAY CONFES- SIONS WERE EXTURTED—OTHER MATTERS PERTAINING TO THE EARLY HISTORY OF THE counTRY. Among the scientifie and useful men whose names are inseparably connected with the early history of the District of Columbia, few stand more conspicuous In the vista of the past than Andrew Ellicott, the engineer who rendered valuable service In preparing the plan of the city of Washington which was finally adopted by Congress. Nor was his usefulness confined to this work alone. Heaiso ran the boundary line The order of the Commissioners relative to sus- pensions of officers, providing that the pay of such shall ease at the date of suspension, was received and placed on file, a8 also the usual monthly statement as to the condition of the school funds. A eommunication was received from James Stewart, proposing to cart off ashes at 25 and 50 cents per load from the school buildings, and placed on file. TEACHERSHIPS. Applications for teachers’ positions were re- celved from Alice S. George (of elocution), Mrs. B. M. Dersett, Deborah East, M. Bryan, Cornelia McDermott, Clarence A. Miller, and referred, The bill reported by the committee on the Ubrary, which was under discussion in the House when our report closed yesterday, is in @ precarions condition. The pending amend- ment then under discussion was the one offered by Mr. Holman, that the proposed building shouid not cost two million dollars. Mr. Hewitt, of New York, offered and advo- cated an amendment making it lawful for the commission to purchase the grounds between East Capitol street, B street south and Ist and 2d streets east, in lien of the grounds mentioned in the bill, provided they can be got ata less tary Engineer, in discussing the results achieved to consumers of gas ef New York city, as well as the success of the new system, tells us that the history of the past twelve months shows Uttle change tn the relative standing of the gas and the electric Nght companies in that city. Each industry, it says, can fairly claim to have held its own, and in certain directions to have made some progress. The constantly increasing value of gas stocks must have proved to any doubtful ones that the gas in- dustry 1s not doomed to immediate extinc- tion; and the fact that electric light companies continue to exist and even to multiply shows charge of violating their duties as commissioners and gave bond for their appearance when W. A. Bosworth, candidate for mayor on independent ticket at the recent election, and who, some time ago, filed notice of a contest on Mayor Reham, to-day filed sult against him. Bosworth asks that Beham be declared to have been illegally elected, and that he (Bosworth) be put in possession of the office, basing hjs claim on the ground that more than 6,000 Totes were counted more than were actually cast, and that over 3,000 votes were counted for Beham that should have been counted for Bosworth or not at all. 4 CONGRESSIONAL CONTEST IN CONNECTICUT. : if William G.

BOUNDARIES CHANGED. Mr. Warner offered a resolution changing the boundaries of the 6th and 2d divisions, 80 as to Inciude Le Droit Park within the bounds of the latter ; which was laid over, It being an amend- ment to the rules. os ‘The Dickson Case. mission that the same sh 9 any politle The second section pro- vides that any n who shall violate any provi- sion of this act shall be deemed guilty of a mis- | demeanor, and, on conviction thereof, shall be punished by imprisonment for a_ term not ex- ceeding six months, and, in the discretion of the | court, by a fine not exceeding $5,000, and, on | conviction, shall be forever thereafter disquali- fied from holding uny office of honor, profit or trust under the United States. Any officer of Hor may be used for American trainers. Having been closely con- nected with racing and owners of horses for several years I beg to differ from the views of the daily papers. An American trainer, knowing the constitution of his horses and the mettle they are made of, is not afraid of breaking them down with a little extra work, and that Is why many people say they over- gallop them. In my opinion a horse bred and born In America is far hardier than one of our English thoroughbreds, and, therefore, will better tor the state generally and the merchant individually if such laws did not exist. He had thought It necessary to frame a law to allow citizens of all the states to ve free to go without molestation anywhere in this country to sell their goods, to cultivate the tastes of the peo- ple, to butld up wholesome rivalry among pro- | ducers and distributors, apd to secure that competition so essential to balancing prices and protits.

Another tmportant point of defense that will be made for Surgeon Owen {s that he had no au- thority over a commanding officer.

Those associations may owe defective to give the necessary energy to the executive, and, second]: from the want of in- dependence and firmne: or incompetency ofthe Jaw can be repealed by the representatives of the people as easily as to enact it, without hav- ing recourse to violence and M!legal acts, which cannot fail of having an injurious effect either as an example or to bring the government into contempt. The acts of those associations, though sometimes marked with equity, are more frequently stained with the marks of tyranny and despotism, not being restrained by any form of law; their passions hurry them on like @ ‘torrent after the dyke is broken, and Pursuing his reflections Mr. Ellicott states: “A government favored with an able, indepen- dent and firm judiciary has but little to dread from the causes beforementioned; but from a timid and imbecile judiciary, whose views are directed to party popularity, there Is everything to fear. Such judges may be ranked among demagogs, and when a judge places himself in the ranks of a party it 1s notifying his opponents that impartial justice is not to be sought for at his tribunal. * * * MILK SICKNESS. “Mr, Lynch, since he left his native state of Virginia, has resided on the Olenoy, one of the branches of the Saludy. The Olenoy appears to be one of the principal seats of disorder known in that country by the name of ‘the milk sick- ness,’ which is supposed to proceed from some vegetable eaten by thecows. The fact, so far ag it relates to the disorder, does not now admit of adoubt. The complaint frequently proves tatal both to the cattle and those who have used the milk. It sometimes happens that the person affected is sensible of the disorder before it ap- Witness continued.—Remembers asking Mr. Dickson to remain to heara particular song; HIS CONVERSATION WITH MR. DRIVER. Knows nothing about Miss Howard or anybody to a conversation with Mr. Driver, save that on the star route cases. Driver told him that Mr, Dickson was foreman of the star route jury; did not remember any other conversation with Driver in which the subject was referred to; remembers that before they left Washington, between the 15th and 22d, he went to New York. Witness was handed a telegram, a8 follows: nolds. Will see you all to-morrow. Bowen.’ “Are you not now in the custody of James F. Clarke, a detective ?” Question objected to by Gov. Wells, and sus- tained by the court. “Have you’ever béen convicted of larceny ?” “T object,” said Mr. Wells. The Court.—*The witness can answer it or decline.” Witness—tT decline to answer, sir. : “Don't you know’ that Henry A. Bowen was charged with stealing books?” asked Judge Cuppy. “I object,” said Mr. Wells. Mr. Cuppy—‘‘Are you not the Henry A. Bowen who was conyicted of the larceny of books from Harry B. Seymour in Buffalo March 1, 18822" Mr. Wells objected, Witness declined to answer. Judge Cuppy.—Were you arrested for stealing an overcoat in Bridgeport last winter? Witness.—I was not this last winter, sir.

This notice must be Gled within a year and sub- tice can be filed by any one but the widow, who, being insane, cannot do so personally The statute dves not authorize the guardian to do so, and In this state the presumption Is always in favor of carrying out the will of the testator, The executors will, therefore, file a bill in the | cireult court for La Crosse county, asking for directions as to what rights Mrs. Washburn or her gaurdian have inthe premises. If the court decides that the guardian or the court case it will not elect that the will of the testator shall be carried out, as he makes ample provision in the will for her main- tenance and support. In case the court should decide that she shall take under the statute and not under the will, she will then be entitled in this state to the dower and lands of which the testator was seized during coverture, and also the distribution of the share of personal prop- erty. Ex-Gov. Washburn was the owner of very valuable flouring mills in Minneapolis, esti- mated to be worth $900,000. Under the statute of Minnesota the widow is entitled to one-third of all the lands of which her husband was seized during coverture in fee absolute. If the court decides that Mrs. Washburn can take against the will, a life estate in one-third of all the pie lands and other lands owned by Mr. Washburn within this state and one-third of the personal property belonging to the estate, also the fee in one-third of the flouring mills and the lands in the Minnesota estate, it will defeat the intention of the testator and place in the hands yf the jan pro} amounting in value to Sete or goon boc f, on the other hand, the court decides that the provisions made in the From the Baltimore American, to-day.

Johnson, the prinetpal, being sentenced to eighteen months in the peniten- indictment, which, he stated,was faulty because it did not set forth the time and place of the first marriage. Upon the demurrer being over- ruled, Johnson pleaded guilty to the indict- ment, and his counsel filed a motion in arrest of judgment, which went to the supreme bench and was turned down. Yesterday morning, therefore, Johnson was sentenced in the crimi- nal court. His crime, which was not allowed to come out in the evidence, was that he had Bertha Trible, of this city, and then divided his husbandly attentions. Wife No. 2 found out that something was wrong, and had him ar- rested. Johnson is a small man, with a keen intelligent countenance and a youthful face. Neither of his wives was particularly pretty. —<$<$<$<—_ trong Drink Leads a Young Philadcl- phian to Take His Own Life.
