E) chureh, at noon. The remains were en- cased in a cloth-covered casket, with silver-plate bearing only the name, and on It rested a m: cent wreath and other tributes, In the audience were many of the older citizens of the District and many physicians, and officers and employes of the Jail, of which the deceased had been the physi- clan for many years. The funeral was 1n perfect keeping with the character of the deceased, being devoid of all ostentatious display. At the church the services of the Episcopal church was read by Rey. T. G. Addison, and the corpse was borne to the hearse by six ‘young men, preceded by the honorary pail-bearers—Chief Justice Cartter, Gen. John 8 Crocker, and Drs. Johnson Eliot, D. R. Hagrer, J. K.

Rerdell, the receipt of a letter by M. C. Rerdell trom Dorsey after Rerdell returned from New York tn June, 1881, and that this letter importuned Rerdell not to desert him, but to stand by him on account of his wife and family.

Mr. Pumphrey’s Gas Economizer. HOW HR WAS VICTIMIZED BY A NEW INVENTION, James W. Pumphrey, the well-known livery stable man, of No. 485 C street, was put on trial before the Police Court ts-day on the charge of fraudulently obtaining gas trom the Washington gaslight company by conducting gas to his stable otherwise than throuzh a meter. John P. Meyers, an employe of the gas company, testified that when he went to take the state of Pumphrey’s meter he found a rubber pipe at- tached to it, which coniucted the around instead of through the meter. Mr. Pumphrey’s counsel said they did not deny that this was a truthful statement, but the defendant would ex- plala the whole matter. Mr. Pumphiey sald that he had been troubled with a leaky pipe. He sent for a plumber, who refused to remedy ft, saying it was the gas company’s business to do so. Mr. Yumphrey compiained to the gas company, who put in a new meter, Dut the pipe still Ivaked. Afterwards aman, giving his name as Dougherty, cume along and claifmed to have an invention that would save twenty-five per cent of the gas bills. He called his invention a “governor,” and Mr. Pumphrey allowed him to put one in; but the gas meter Is Kept In a box, and Mr. Pumphrey sald he bad not seen it since the “governor” was attached. It was this invention which the company complained against. “I can hardly Meve that Mr. Pumphrey—a business man—would undertake to cheat the gas company in this way,” sild Judge Snell, “and his explanation shows that he has been the victim of a practical joke. The cxse may stand suspended for one week, that Mr. Pumphrey may settle the matter satisfactorily with the gas company.” a i ‘The Irish Famine. NO ABATEMENT OF THE DISTRESS—PREVAL. FAMINE FEVER. Letters from Ireland, received to-day by Mr. James Bellew, show that the distress and suffering in Ireland continues unabated. Father Logue, Parish priest, writes from County Donegal, under date of March 27th, acknowledging receipt of a contribution, ana stating that “Clan-na-Gael” has sent food and consolation to many a poor cabin. He says the sfiiuation 1s critical; the ground 18 prepared, but no means of procuring Seed are at hand. “he relief fund 1s very low. One-half a stone of Indian meal per week is being doled out to each person, but unless additional contributions arrive soon this pittance must stop. Father Logue thinks the British government would be glad to see the Irish starve to death, M. Finn, V. G. dean of Achonny, writes March th, from Swinford, County Mayo, thanking the Clan-na-Gael Association of Washington for tts timely ald. He describes the situation ag truly distressing. The small farmers are in the face of a famine like that of 1818; they are without money, provisions or credit; fever 1s making sad ravages among all classes of the population, and 1n coun- try ag well ag town. Their destitution and suffer- ing, the writer says, came through no fault of their own. Added to repeated failure of crops an inhuman and unbearable rack-renting has helped to crush them. The government offers the emigrant ship or the workhouse, neither of which will the people accept. For f to sustain life for the next four months, and for means of cropping thelr land, the people appeal to their friends abroad, ‘The writer predicts for Ire- land a happier time tn the near future, and be- Ueves that If the starving people are helped over ther present distress they will, hereafter, be sttu- ated so.as to escape famine and maintain them. welves.

A Growl About Various Matters. To the Editor of Tae Evewma Star: The warm weather will soon be upon us, and it seems a fit time to call attention to certain defic!- encles in our municipal organization which,belong- ing to the village stage of evolution,more or less dis- figure the administration of affairs in our beautiful city. I refer to the disposition of refuse, an un- savory subject, but closely connected with good health and morals. Long a resident, three years a householder, the last two summers have forced the subject on my attention. First for facts. I be- leve our authorities are supposed to undertake the collection of garbage; the removal, when noti- fled, of dead antmais, and the cleansing, at tuter- vals dictated by the convenience of the owner or the complaints of his neighbors, of the tempies of Cloacina which still disfigure the best parts of our city. ‘They do not remove, however, as is done in all well regulated cities, the ashes or other dry and inoffensive refuse of the housekeeper, I found last summer that owing to the infrequent visits of the “slop-man” it was necessary eiuher to suffer trom odors or to engage the services of a private collector, that work might be done which I had paid tax¢s to have performed. Twice I notified the tottering patriarchs of an adjacent police station of the presence of dead animals in the alley of our block." It was gravely entered in a book, and after some waiting a colored urchin was bribed by me to deposit the offending feline in an empty lot some distance away. I find that my acquaint- ances who remain in the city during the summer have similar experiences to relate. Now this will have to be remedied some time, if we are to keep our good name, and the sooner the better. Within a certain ‘area, at least, the above-ground “boxes” should be prohibited under penalty, !n- cluding their summary abatement by the authorl- tes. ‘The garbaxe should be removed every morn- ing during warm weather in covered close carts, and the ashes weekly. If theash heap grows, ser- vants will add to It what 1s not ashes, and unsani- tary cxhalations will be the result The alleys should be patrolied at least once a day and an un- removed dead animal of more than twenty-four hours stanatt trol of that bi for. ‘The annoyances I mention I do not think are to be laid to the charge of our health office, which I believe to be fairly efficient. With any organiza- Uon occasional slips will occur. I belleve they are mainly due, for our district, at least (one of the best in the city), to the inefficiency of the police. I do not know any of these gentlemen by name, and my visits to the station having In all cases proved fruitless of any good result I have discontinued them, but at such times I have been struck by the gray hairs and calm, inoffensive, mild demeanor or the veterans who frequented that peaceful re- sort, That Tam not altogether unjustified in my Supposition, I will add that uring Uuree years the house J occupy—two blocks from that station—has been seven times robbed, once by burglars, six times by sneak thieves. ‘Three times f have re- ported the circumstances personally without any result, and only three times in three years have I beheld a policeman on our block. Now Ihave provided myself with fire-arms, Inside shutters and bars, burglar alarm, and a share in a private watchman, and feel reasonably safe. Last sum- mer I saw In front of this station house door, as I returned from work, a drunken man perforini Various antics, surrounded by a crowd of school children of both sexes. I had time to walk a block before he was taken In charge. I suppose they had the rheumatism in there. Yours truly, ‘TWELFTH STREET. A DeArH oF Jonx G. Miuia.—Mr. John G.

Special Correspondence of Tur Evexre Stam. New York, April 13, 1883. A discussion has been going on for some time concerning Adelina Patt!’s age. An old gentle- man who used to make mud pies with her tn 224 Street has come forward ani announced that she is forty-three years old. This has raised a howl from her admtrers, who claim stout y that she has not passed her thirty-firth year, and as the lady herself has refused to tell her exact age a vast Volume of remint>cences has been rushed upon the Public. Max Strakosch seems to have fixed it, however, for he said recently: “Talk about Pattt’s being only twenty-eight, why when I tried to take her to Mexico and Havana it was one year before her departure for London, and that was exactly twenty-six years ago. I do not remember her ex- Act age then, but she must have been at least Mt- teen years old, and if she was Mfteen years old twenty-six years ago, at the present time she must be forty-one. Isn't that so? You can’t wonder, however, that people hesitate to believe she 4s as old as this, for she really doesn’t look over thirty, The secret of Patt!’s perennial youth is the exquisite care she has taken of herself. As long as I canremeinber she has taken Just somuch exercise every day and has eaten with moderation and regularity. She never drinks except the most nutritious wines, and then she fs careful to take Just so much as will do her good.” In an inter- View with Patti, wherein she refused to state her age, I notice that she said she disliked women’s Soclety. She sald women expected hier to enter- tain them, whereas men made it a point always to entertain her. Patt! can afford to chose her ac- quaintances, and her preference for men is shared after all by the majority of her sex. The only thing that causes the average citizen to roll up his eyes in holy horror and give vent to wild expres- sions of profanity ts her choice of such a miserable specimen of humanity @3 Nicolini for a com- panion. Mr, Abbey’s atmirers are constantly advising him to secure Pattt for the new opera house. Such advice is, of course, well meant, but Mr. Abbey's gratuttous counselors, perhaps, do not know the facts of the case. Mr, Abbey has made Patt! a handsome offer for next s diva very properly afswered that, * temptations,” she would sing for Mr. Gye tf he wanted her.’ It would be very “mean” of Pattl, M, after twenty-three seasons at Covent Garden, she Were to desert Gye in the hour of need for the Sake of a few extra hundred dollars, Patt will son, but the spite of all undoubtedly sing for the Royal Italian Opera | company, limited, who will control the next American season at the Academy of Music, under the personal direction of Col. Mapleson, who will robably, as of late, have the casual assistance of ir. Ernest Gye. What with Pattl, Albant, Ger- ster, Lucca ‘I'remeilt, Joseph Muss, and many other stars from Covent Garden, the’ company at the Academy next season will take a lot of beat- ig, when the old-time and efficient chorus and Ardiu’s orchestra are atso taken into cousidera~ lon. OPPOSED TO ENCORES. A great deal of talk has been occasioned by the speech of a well-known music teacher in Chicker- ing Halla few evenings since. Every song had been encored on the program, and the consequence ‘Was that it was getting very late when the audl- ence insisted upon a double encore from a favorite amateur singer. Upon this the conductor of the concert, who was the beneficiary by the way, ran OUL on ‘the stage, and accused’ the audience of belng disrespectable, and sald that he had sup- posed that he had invited ladies and geutiemen when he asked them to come to the concert. There Was a dead silence, and then a storm of hisses. ‘Then he said that tlle encore nuisance was really greater than he could bear. Every number on the Program hed to be given twice, and the result was that, though the people got more than the worth of their money, tt Ured outthe performersand was adecided exhibition of bad taste, All this has called @ great deal of attention *o the encores, and they are pronounced nuisances by musicians. When you come to think of it, 1t ts alll folly to talk about ‘encores bemg a nulsuncas It is always a compliment to the performer, and the man or Woman does not breathe who isn’t Mattered by this mark of appreciation. So far from being a Dulsance, it is a positive pleasure. If a woman sings and the audience admire her singing, the fact of their wanting to hear her again certainly does not prove that she 1s a nutsance. Tnststing upon encores injudiciously 1s, of course, bad taste, but the encore Itself is as fluttering to the artst as it 1s gratifying to the audience, 4 WHIRLWIND OF CRIME. ‘There has been a perfect whirlwind of fatlures, embezziements and thefts of late. Long depres- sion in Wall street has played the deuce with Aaanctal men, as ts seen in the troubles of the last few days. The assignment of Williston Knight & Co, caused a great deal of comment. Itcame so suddenly fhat nobody was prepared. Of couree a defal of # hundred thousand dollars was not a {t never 13 until the man has got well away. In this case it ts doubtful if the firm will be able to resume business, and young Knight, the man who caused all the dificuity, is supposed to be having @ happy time in Hrance, for the Woman With whom he has been living, and who is Supposed to have incited bim to his crime, was French, and constantly longed for Paris. He had squandered most of the money before he left, and the chanees are that the firm’ will not get ahy of it back again, A queer fnancial quirk was that of the “Tobias “Brothers in misusing trust funds. The two brottiers speculated very heavliy with the funds, and as they bad bern bears on the market for four or five months, their losses have been enormous. They-are well known men about town, and wished to make people belleve that they had immense tnfluence in financial af- fairs, but the truth seems to be that they ouly made ventures occasionally, and their judgment was usually very bad, for they lost from the start. The suspension of George Palen & Co., the leather merchants, caused more gossip In official circles during the'week. It was augmented by the talk about Thadeus Davids & Co. On the top of this caine the scandal of the thefts from the city treas- ury by Wm. B. Carroll, who died in August last. It 1s odd that his thievery should just now be found out, aud it does not seem that there can be much gystem in an office when a man can steal 80 many thousand dollars without the faintest dan- ger or ‘detection until the books are examined after is death, ‘MISS HOPE GLENN. At the sacred concert at the Casino last Sunday night @ profound effect was produced by Miss Hope Glenn. There was a very fashionable au- dience present, and it had listened to the singing of Del Puentt, Madame Derevis, Tagllaptetra and several other operatic singers, with great amuse- ment. The music had been of the most Mippant French school. The orchestral selections were waltzes, marches and snatches from comic opera and several decidedly broad French songs ha been sung, When Miss Hope Glenn came out upon the stage. The audience Was laughing and chat- ting with animation, and scarcely stopped in time to give her a rouhd of applause. She bowed slowly, and then, in a magnificent contralto volce, began singing Gounod’s “Green Hill” It was | suug in English, and every word was uttered with @ distinctness ‘that rang through the entire the- ater. Every word and sentiment of the 1s of the deepest religious character, and the music 1s beautiful and sacred to the’ last degree.
