Soap eating was proposed, but not compelled. The hazing began soon after the Constellation Started on her crutse, but was not reported until about two weeks ago, when Lieut. McCrackin, one of the watch officers, caught two of the third ¢lass men in the wash room hazing several plebs. Tue PRESIDENT AMONG THE GEYSERS—A dls- patch from Yellowstone Park, August 26 (via Liv- ingstone, Montana, August %) says that, as at the camp at the uppcr Geyser basin, there was not sut- fictent forage for the aninals ahd the Presidential party returned to the Shoshone lake by the same trail they had ridden over on Friday, and, after a tiresome journey,encamped on the borders of Yel- lowstone lake. ‘The dispatch says that some of the party had an opporvunity to test and verity he truth of a statement which has oiten been made, but widely doubted, that it was possible to capture a trout in the Waters of the lake, and without detaching tt from the hook to fling it into an adjacent geyser and bring 1t thence cooked to sult the taste of the most critical gourmand. Within 100 yards of the encampmnt geysers aré constantly fashtoning the curious creations which have been so frequently described.

The acting secretary received a letter from Mr. Teller, written and mailed last Thurs- day at his home, in Colorado, and 1t would have Deen an impossibility for him ‘to have reached the pee. where he was said to have met the Presi- lent by the time the alleged interview took place.

WHAT HE SAYS OF THB TUSLICATIONS CONCERNING Hs TERM OF OPFiCE, ASrar reporter ealled upon Surgeon General Wales, of the navy, this morning, and asked him regarding the publication ia a New York journal yesterday to thee! that tire was a disagree- ment among naval medical oMeers regarding his (Gen. Walzs') term of office; that the aspirants for Lis place held that bis term expired four years from the date of his nomination, whife he (Gen Wales) argued that his term began on the date of his commission. “That 1s all nonsense,” replied Wales,‘tand is gotten up, I presume, by those who are anxiou3 to succeed mie. The whole amount Of itis that they WANT TO BURY MB BEPORE I AM DEAD. It 1s ridiculous to suppose that I became surgeon general before I was confirmed and commisstoned. I was nominated December 31, 1679, (not August 1, 1879, as re] and commissioned January 26, 1880, and during tue interval between my nomina- tlon and appointmeati was simply acting su: general. Iam not meee aby strenuous efforts toretain my position. If I am wanted I will tay, and if not I will go, without a word, but not be- fore my time ts out, without cause. I am busily engaged now in translating an important German work, and I guess I'll have time to finish it, Any- how, T’m not alarmed about my decapitation.” WHAT WAS LEARNED AT THE WHITE HOUSE. The reporter learned at the White House that all terms of office begin upO& the date of commis- sion, and upon the records there tt is shown that Surgeon General Wales was nominated December td, 1879, confirmed Sannary 98, 1869, commissioned January 26, 180, and appointed January 26, 1880. There are but two active aspirants for the office of surgeon general—Medical Director Gunnell and Medical Director Horwitz. The Recent Treasury *-Finds.” OFFICIAL REPORTS OF TREASURER WYMAN AND CON- TROLLER KNOX—OPINION OF ASSISTANT SECRE- TARY FRENCH. After a careful investigation Treasurer Wyman and Controller Knox have made reports to the Acting Secretary of the Treasury relative to the finding of certain notes recently on the floor of the department. ‘reasurer Wyman’s report rela- tive to the ten $1,000 notes found in the redemption division states that the bundle tumbled from a Dox on a small platform wagon after the notes had been cancelled and previous to their being cut in two. The rest of the $223,000 placed In the box was locked in the vault, and the wagon, with the last: bundle on its edge, was wheeled into an adjoining room, and the worthless notes were found by a workman on the morning of the 14th. ‘The loss would have been discovered by the delivery clerk during that morning, soon after the moncy was taken from the vault to be consolidated with another amount (151,000) received trom the re- demption teller, the whole to be cut and delivered for destruction. Treasurer Wyman’s account of the affair substantiates that given in THR STAR at the time of the occurrence. In regard tothe loss of the sheets of national bank notes, found recently in the waste paper, Controller Knox states that the loss was the re- suit of negligence, but that _no such occurrence has heretofore happened, aad it 1 believed that this accident will have the effect to increase the diligence of those engaged {n ‘this duty and pre- Vent any like occurrence hereafter. Acting Secretary French says that while such accidents cannot occur without carelessness on the part of some officials or employes, yet he does not thipk the facts furnish cause for’ the removal of any clerk or employe, or for censure of the head Of elther of the offices in question. LN The Hardships of Lady Operators. HOW THEY LEARN TELEGRAPHY—WHAT THEY EARN AND THE MARRIAGE PROBLEM. There was one feature of the late telecraph strike, common enough in other cities, which was not familiar here, and that was the presence of lady operators at the meetings of the strikers. ‘The reason was that but few lady operators were employed in this city, perhaps not more than three or four altogether. Those who had post- tions, however, it should be stated, gave them u) when the operators went out, and bravely tool their chances with the rest, One notable instance was that of a lady operate who had a good 1- tion with the B. and O. company, and gave it up when the strike begap. ‘Since the’ strike ended she has obtaine1 a position with the Merchants’ and Bankers’ company. The Western Union had only one lady operator when the strike began, and the B. and O. two or three, and so the woman phase of the strike did not assume the same pro- portions here as it did in other cities. EXPERIENCE OF A LADY OPERATOR. In New York, for example, seventy-five ladies went out, and since the strike collapsed only about twenty have been taken back, and there Is great suffering in consequence. In conversation with a Feporter of a New York paper one of the lady op- erators was asked “How long does it take a lady to become an average oper.itor 2” “The girls who learn at Cooper Union have a course of six months. By that time they can do sometning in the way of sending dispatches, but they must then have long and steady office prac- tice. Some Improve faster than others, but to be- come at all expert isn't easy. I learned by study Ing nights inyself, while I was engaged In other business during the day. I started going to Coo- per Union, but found I could not afford to give up mny daytime to study.” THE WAGES OF WOMEN. “What pay do you get on going into the of- fice?” “Those who are put on a key after being in the office as check girls ere paid $25.0, montii at frst, an | the students from Cooper Union $35. I started at $85 and was gradually raised to $59.” “Do you think women acquire the business as readily as men?” “Oh, I don’t think there 1s much difference; only men go into It as a business for a Itfetime, and are apt to work harder, while girls think that perhaps they may some time get—” A moment of hesitation and a decided blush brought the reporter Lo the rescue with: “Get married, you men?” “Yes, that’s it; and so they don’t go into the business with as much energy as mon,” ts District Government Affairs. ENFORCING PAYMENT OF PERSONAL TAXES. Deputies have been sent out by the collector of taxes for the purpose of seizure of goods and wares from stores and shops for delinquent per- sonal taxes. Several distraints have already been made on stores, and will be followed by distratnts ‘on household effects. ‘Mr. Cook says the accounts must be closed at once. NO SIGNS ON TREE-BOXES. ‘The order issued some time ago prohibiting the use of tree-boxés for hanging signs thereon for private businessis to be strictly enforced here- afler, and no exceptions will be made. POLICE PROMOTIONS. D. C. Connelly and R. W. Montgomery were yes— terday promoted from first tosecond class privates of the Metropolitan police force, and W. W. Easby ‘Was appointed to be a first class private. A NEW HACK STAND. The District Commissioners yesterday approved the recommendation of Capt. F. V. Greene for the establishment of a hack stand at the nortneast corner of 7th street and New York avenue, the same to be first paved with granite blocks from the property yard. FIRE DEPARTMENT OMANGES.

SCENES ON THE RIVER LAST EVENING—TRAINING FOR THE COMING CONTESTS—THE PART THE COLUUEIAS WILL TAKR—THS POTOMAC'S FAST EIGUT—THEIR OTHER CREWS—THE ANALOSTAN FOULS—OAT:SMEN FROM OTEER PLACES WHO WILL PARTICIPATE, ETC. Comparatively few pleasure boats were seen upon the river last evening, as the weather was too cool for the ladies. The different clubs sent out their usual crews, however,and there was plenty of rowing, such as the trainers like to see. ‘The Columbias had out an eight pulling together very nicely and two fours. The eight was stroked by Brace, with Kintner No. 7. The latter oars- man Is getting himsrif into fine condition. He has worked off nearly ten pounds since the 4tn of July, when he rowed in the Columbia crew against the Potomacs at Lyncntucg. Previous to going out with a crew in the evening he elther takes a spinin the patr-oared or a good stiff pull on the machines. He will undoubtedly occupy a seat In ‘the Walst of the eight, and will do justice to It. ‘The Columbias are certain toentex one crew at leastn the coming regatta, and that will be in the four-oared race for seniors. In that contest they feel that they have the best chance to cross the line frst, or at least wipe out the Lynchbu- defeat by beating the Potomacs, ‘This four wil undoubtedly be a very strong one. The proba- bilities are that it will be composed of Nute, stroke; Brace, 8; Wade, 2, and Nesmith, bow. While noth. ing 1S yét certain about entering an cicht-oared crew, it Is more than likely that they will be rep- resented in the race for eights, and by a good crew, aa osed of such men as Nute, Brace, Wade, Kinther, Nesmith, Kondrup, Young and Sinith. ‘The Potomacs last night Nad out a fast eight, consisting of McRac, Kennedy, (trainer) Fraser, Kearney, Ryan, Cropley, Thomas and Wheeler ‘They had out al3o three iour-oared crews stroked respectively by Rarbarin, Whittington and Zap- pone. The Potomacs intend entering a crew in every race. Kennedy has a large force in good working order, but he 1s in no hurry to place is men together in their respective boats. To the lookers-on it appears as if the senior four will con- sist of McRae, Baker, Ryan and Wheeler, although no one can tell what changes may take ‘place De- fore 26th of September. ‘The two fours from the Analostan house last evening did some very pretty rowing. They con- sisted of J. Johnson, stroke; Somers, Eckstein and Davis, (trainer), and Hatch, stroke; Chapman, Hood and H. Johnson. The Analostans are con- siderably inconvenienced at present by the ab- sence from the city of several of their best rowing men. They are showing agood deal of enthustasin, however, and will be able to enter more than one good crew in the regatta. The race upon which they count the most, however, 1s the junior four, Information has been received that Mr. Gilbert Fitzgerald, of the Keystone club of Philadelphia, will be here to contest for the juntor sculis. The regatta committee are in receipt ot a com- munication from the Union boat club of New York, stating that they will probably be repre- sented In the senlor four and eight-oared races, provided they will not be too ciose together, as some of the men expect to row in both races.” A Teply was sent, to the effect that those races will not conflict in the least. Both the Potomacs and Columbias will row men in both races, and care will be taken to separate the two contests, so that there will be plenty of breathing time. ‘There is some talk among those having the re- gatta arrangements in charge, of getting up a Yace for the barges of the three District clubs, each boat to be manned by men who do not take part in any of the other races of the day, and to carry six or elght lady passengers. Such a race would be a very pretty sight. McKinney, of the Potomacs, has decided not to Pirlcipateth the race for singles He says that ¢ can’t get the right speed on ls boat. He will probably occupy a place in one of the crews. He would undoubtedly stroke the light-weights if he were a few pounds lighter. He may, however, train down wo the limit (123 lbs) McKinney, Kearney, Fisher and Warden would make a very fast crew. It is sald that the medal which has been donated by Messrs, Galt & Bro. for the special single race for District scullers who have never won a race will be one of the handsomest prizes ever offered for such a contest. The entries for this race will probably be Somers and Perley, of the Analos- tans; Cropley, Nordzy, Lang and Puelps, of the Potomacs, and Lake and Brewster, of the Colum- Dias. A number of others may spring up before the time comes. Periey, of the Analostans, (for- merly of the Potomacs,) is looked upon as the favorite for this race. Nute, the reliabie stroke of the Columbias, is at present out of the city on leave, but he 1s expected foreturn by the 15th of September. ‘He ts always in condition, so that he will be able to row in the Tegatta on comparatively short notice, The Potomacs are counting upon some such eight as McRae, stroke; Baker, 7; Nordzy, 6; Fra- ser, 5; Ryan, 4; Wheeler, 8;' Cropley, 2 and Kearney, bow. “They will average about 140 oun The photographs of the victorious Potomac crews at Fredericksburg in 1850, Richmond, 1831, and Lynchburg, 1883, have been appropriately framed and will be hung in the boat house this: evening, ———__$§_<o.___ The Maryland Campaign.
