Warrex:—Dear Sir:-—I have the honor to report that I have completed the ex- aminations of the samples of beer submitted to me for that purpose. The examinations were conducted in the same manner as those alread: Teported upon, and with the same results. 1, thereiore, consider these beers as free from any isonous or actively deleterious substance. The beer No. X does not contain any of the Substances mentioned in my previous report. It does, however, contain very minute quanti- ties of some "material not present in Other samples, and foreign to malt liquors, This substance bears some _ resemblance to an alkaloid, although I have not Yet succeeded in determining its exact nature. Concerning this sample, I, therefore, can only state at present that it does not contain any of the adulterants written in ialics in the listcon- tained in my previous report. Very respectfully, A.

Speechmaking at Lincoln Park and Isracl Chureh—Frederick Douglass’ Address. The two emancipation processions yesterday carried out the programs announced in each case without collision. Both processions passed the White House, but neither of them entered the grounds. The Carson procession marched to Lincoln park, where it arrived about five O'elock. A stand had been erected on the south A street front of the park. Mr. W. H. Barker called the assemblage to order. Rev. R. HG. Dyson offered prayer. Addresses were delivered by King Sanks, of Baltimore, and Hons. Robert Smalls and James E. O'Hara, FREDERICK DOUGLASS’ ADDRESS, Frederick Dougiass delivered the emancipa- tion address at Israel Bethel C. M. E. church last night, Mrs. Douglass occupied a front seat with several other white ladies, and the assem- bly that filled the church was of a very intelli- gent character, Representative Brady, ot Vir- kinia, occupied & (seat, among the invited guests. Fol. Gregory delivered the opening address, after which resolutions were adopte Frederick Douglass was then introduced, and was received with loud applause. He said that this was the third time he had addressed them on such an occasion, and that while he felt honored, he would have been gratified had some younger man been chosen for that duty on this occasion. He would have to repeat sentiments he had repeated to the same au- dience before. But, after all, the same things Were still true. He said that one year ago we were upon the threshold of a new administra- tion, and did not know what to expect. The democratic party, which for 24 years had been poking about in small caverns and dark places otten hungry, often thirsty, and in places dark and desolate, by one. ‘strong effort had overcome the " republicans and taken control of affairs, Of course there was some discontent." The elder — brother of the democratic household. who had been keeping up the fences and doing the chores of the party, were surprised when they saw the feast at the white house, and saw who was there. They thought their father was v« ‘soft hearted and probably soit headed. But elder brothers are not apt to complain aloud of their father. ‘They are patient and can wait. After all there had not been much change in affairs. People Were somewhat mystified at some of the pass ingevents. The condition of the colored peo ple had not changed. SOME HAD LOST OFFICES, but in this they had suffered no more than had crippled soldiers, whose places were wanted by good fuithful democrats. Things went on a8 they did under Mr. Arthur. Lynch law was as ‘violent, the Constitution was violated as much and the rights of the colored people held as Tauch in ee Spitting out these words of bitterness he turned to the colored Face more in particular and especially to the resent Occasion. He regretted the want of harmony that had been displayed during the day, but said, without laying the blame any- Where, that colored men were but men, and subject to the same error, frequently ing thrown into discord by mere trifle, “A man always felt strange the first time he put on his Sunday clothes. He then referred to the pre- amble of the Constitution, with its declaration of equal rights, and tne delegated power of governments derived from the governed, and th® progress of this country during the’ past century,with its effects upon the colored race.If We go on tooppress the weak and glorify the strong, Worship the rich, and trample on the peer, our bution would be doomed. Laige and appropriate plans are now in con- ‘emplation for the celebration of the hundredth Sonlversary of the adoption of the Constitution, If these plans are perfected, as they will be and should be, this city willsee the greatest celebra- tion of thé world, Wherever an American eit zen lived, wherever he was born, he was always athome here. Washington was the home of the nation. The colored ple would look for- ward with pleasure to this celebration and feel that they had a hand in building up Washing- 2, OTHER SPEECHES. Speeches were also delivered by Prof. Greg- ory, A. St. A. Smith and S.A. D. Arnand. The resolutions adopted denied all responsiblity for the double procession and advised against parading on ersancipation day. Letters oi regret were read from Senators Logan and Sherman and from Gen. J. C. Fre- mont. mie ‘The Great Tornado of April 14th. WHAT CAUSED IT? To the Editor of Tux EVENING Stam: Athalt-past five, April 14, 1886, there oc- curred a severe tornado, or cyclone, in about the center of the state of Minnesota, What should have caused it? is the question. The only medium that can throw any light upon it, and indeed upon ail meteorological phenomena, is the weather map. From day to day this wonderful map gives. us, as it were, a photo- graph of the weather conditions of the States. By referring to It we learn all about the movements of the atmosphere, and that it is divided into twogrand factors, for short termed “high” and “low,” representing high and low barometer. ‘The movement of the atmosphere, which we term the “wind,” is from the “high” to the “low.” “Low” moving on ahigh or north line of latt- tude, whereby south winds are engen- dered, produces heat. No heat, no tornado. But one north “low” will” not produce sufficient heat; we must have a number. After the heat is well established, let another “low” be added, moving on, or towards a north line, and we have the tornado. These severe storms in the United States, mostly occur with the wind from the southwest towards the north- east, butthe mere direction of the wind is not important, nor is it essential that it move on ALL Iuporrant bi histories and books of travel at Frees select iibrary.

C., In 1874, and once since, be from thé northwest. in Minnesota, April 14th, according to the map, the general direction of the wind was from Southeast to northwest. For the reason that the center of “low” was on the morning of the 14th, at 7 a.m., from (40%) forty degrees to (49°) forty-nine degrees south to north,and (89°) nine- ty-nine to ( 109°) one bundred and nine east to west, covering western Nebraska und Dakota, dnd eastern Wyoming and Montana, APL Jotun, 7 a ms we see that this center moved almost due north, or a little west of uorth, and centered over northwestern Dakota and beyond into the British salons. A. line drawn from St. Cloud to this “low” center would be southeast to northwest. The tornudo, cyclone, or hurricane, call it what we will, al: ways takes place in the track of “low,” either direetly bebiud it or to the right or leit of the center. We have it more frequently with a southwest wind, for the simple reason that the “lows” that cause the phenomenon more fre- quently, at these times, move eastward on a line alittle north of east. But we see that it is not necessary to bave the movement on any ‘special live, so long us it be towards “low.” This ds the great thing necessary. First, a few north “lows to heat, and then another “low” mov- ihg-on the same high line or towards it to in- teulsify the conditions, and we have the con- cenirsted phenomenon which we term the “wrnado,” “cyclone” or “hurricane.” No “low,” or, better, no “low” moving as herein described, no severe wind storm—term It what We will.

EARLY MORNING ON THE TRACK—HORSES LIMBERING UP FOR THE COMING CONTESTS— STABLES THAT ARE ON THE GROUND AND OTHERS EXPECTED. A Stam reporter turned out early enough this morning to strike for the Ivy City race course at 6 a, m., but upon reaching the grounds everything was astir. Superintendent Johnson was already out with his force of workmen, anda line of horses, all with their clothes on, ‘was moving from the stabies to the track. Mr. Jobnson said to the reporter: “The track is Just in prime condition, It never was so fast, and some of the trainers are begging me not to speed, and if they don't get itt shan't bo my ion’t it shan’t be m; speed, xy get itits! y ‘The white-wash brigade was at work and inters were touching up the fences and build- Ings. The jumps in the steeple-chase course are being replaced with new ones, and in fact wherever repairs or improvements are neede: the work is being done. Superintendent John- son has had cl of the track since it was first surveyed. He 1s. an experienced and skill- fal hand in all that goes to constitute @ com- plete race course. Several days ago the Washington men who are interested in the new course at Bay Ridge, prevailed upon Mr. Johnson to go down there and give them some advice in laying out thelr uunds. He says nature seems to have ly made the location for a race track, and that the incorporators intend to spend $200,000 upon it; they told him that 'y had decided to offer $75,000 in premiums ‘this season. ‘THE STABLES AT IVY CITY, Tax Sak reporter, by alternating between the quarter-stretch and the stables, managed to See every horse on the grounds. The stables at Ing Clty now are.as follows: Ex-Gov. Bowie's stable of fitteen horses com- rises Caio, Cassett Bessie, Shady, Valiant, & four year old, two three-year olds, and a num- ber of Ane looking and promising two-year Davis & Hall have Enigma, Branova, Bess, Patrocns, Bet, Black Rose, Vinton, Rosetta, & filly by Bram, dam Fannie B, and a b. c. by Matador. All the horses of this'stable are look- ing well, and some of them bid fair to be heard from at the coming meeting. Bess ts in good form, and hasa prospect of doing even better in her three-year form than she did as a col Walter Olney has Emerson, Pasha, Hannibal, Escape and Red Bassett, Jo. McMahon hasa string of 13 horses, and certainly, 1f good looks and clean work can give any 4ssurance, he may look forward hopefully to the meeting. He has Frankie B., Swift, Jo. Mitchell, Boheme, King Victor, Frank Ward, Al. Reed, John Baly and six ‘two-year-olds, ‘Swilt is doing finely, and Frank Ward isacredit to his namesake. He is full of vim, and if he doesn’t win laureis as a three-year-old, then ap- pearances are very deceptive. McMahon has a pretty lot of two-year-vlds, and he is giving them close attention. 'W. P. Burch, who has won more races on the we City track than any other one man, has the old veteran and favorite Col. Sprague, Telie Doe, John C. Biggonnet, " Eight-w-Seven, Bracken, Bobolink, Saranac, the Plenipo colt; and three other youngsters. Mr. Burch has wintered his horses here, and as a result they ure all in excellent condition now. Sprague appears to be able and willing to duplicate his performance of last, season, and if Biggonnet does not carry Bureh’s colors to the front it will bea wonder. Telie Doe and John C, are both working very nicely, and the two-year-olds Promise to maintain the high reputation of the stable. William Higgs, the well-known jockey, owns and is training the Duke of Westmoreland. J. W. and RH. Loud pave Lady Loud’ and two 2-year olds—Elsa Rosalind ‘and one not named. ‘Lady Loud, now five years old, never looked so well in her life, and with half a ¢hance she will show some of the best flyers her heels, G, A. Gallup has Charley Russell, Fireman, Wayward, one 2-year-old and another horse not named. All the stable are in active training. J. R. Branch has astting of fourteen, among whom are Huron, Chickahominy, Seminole, Stiletto, Aurora and Nilus. “Mr. Branch has de- cided to take a portion of his stable to Clifton next Monday. William Garth has Modoc, Miss Grace and Eolite at Ivy City, but he will probably con- ciude to go to Clifton aiso, where his horses will not have to run against the fastest flyers of the country, as would be the case here. John Spellman has under bis immediate eye and training Strathespy, Wandering, St. Paul, Velvet and one other. ‘Spellman has got his horses down to fine work, and with his expe- rience it is pretty sure that everything in them will be brought out, He is already smoking 25- cent cigars, which is an indication that he ex- pects to reapa rich harvest during the coming Season. M. F; Danaher owns and is training Avalon, Spanish King and Marshall. The latter is a Steeplechaser, and, though he puffs like asteam- boat in running, he moves along pretty fast Avalon and Spadish King are both in ti Sn their work gives promise of Tesul ‘G. W. Jennings has just arrived with Tony Foster, Pocolo and Alsinora, THE GALLOPS were satisfactory to all the owners, as far as THE STAR reporter could ascertain. The first to show was the leading division of Joseph McMa- hon’s stable. They were followed instantly by W. P. Burch’s horses, led by the old veteran, Colouel Sprague. McMahon galloped switt, Frankie B.and Frank Ward in a set, and al: though all went free and in good siyle, the time Was not fast. They were supplemented by Al. Reed, Boheme and King Victor, the first and last-named showing to good advantage. Sprague, Telie Doe and Biggonnet, of Burch’ lot, went in company, and Burch appeared to be satisiied with their several performances. eaxonnes is looking and doing well. Saranac and Bracken went in company for three-eighths, when the first-named broke off, and went along to the finish of the mile, pulling up as if he Wanted to go on. The Plenipo coit is a good- looking fellow, and is probably as good as he looks. “He is-as well put together as any colt at the track, and moves like a race horse. Joyner had Davis & fall's horses out, Bess was given a comparatively fast mile for this time of year—about 1:49. Vinton galloped at a rating pace, and Bet and Black Rose were “breezed” about five-elghths. Rosetta and Enigma were also given good, but not particu- larly fast work, and both acquitted themselves creditably. The horses in this stable are well advanced, and they willbe heard from before the meetiig is over, Walter Olney had Pasha, Emerson, Escape and Hannibal out, Pasha and Hannibal went together for about threc-eighths, when “The Turk” went along and finished a mile resolute- ly and gamely. Emerson and Escape are doing Well, but are not being hurried in thelr prepa ration, Duke ot Westmoreland 1s as good a looking horse as there is at Ivy City. “Higgs had him. out with adusky son of Ethiopia in the sudale, The Duke went a halfata rattling pace, and puiled and wrestled to get his head to go along further, Loud did amileand aneighth, Elsa LO} Lad: Rosalind went @ halt miie in good style, about as fast as ig berms has gone at Ivy City so far. The other, rtimer, in the stable, is lame. Avalon ’and Marshall were out about ten o'clock. The former had Brophy, as pilot. He ‘Was cantered a mile and a-half and wasscraped off, and was then given a mile in 1:58. Spanish King came out afterwards. He was done up in grand style—as showy as a bird of Paradise in full plumage. He seems to be sore all over. Nevertheless he was sent three-quarters at a two-minute gait,and at the finish was fresh and strong. Danaher has only three, but he has th ex) tions of all. Marshall is a “roarer’'—that is to say, broken-winded—but he Peete will do all that is required of him in steeplechases. Strathspey, Wandering and St. Paul, in Spell- man’s string, were only cantered. Velvet was given a mile breeze, but the time was slow. Gov. Bowie's horses, which arrived Thursday, as already noted in Tue Stax, were rested up Friday and putto work this morning in earn- est. Cato and Cassatt, both three-year-olds, were worked = mile together, Both are un. doubtedly fine colts, and of the palr Cato 1s Probably the better. ‘Shady, Vallant and Bes- SOUTH WASHINGTONS FUTURE The Growth of the Southwest—a Talk with Mr. A. F. Barker. “Ihave built about seventy-five houses in this part of the city,” said Mr. A. F. Barker as he sat in his home in South Washington talk- ing witis a Star reporter. “You must have great faith in South Wash- ington?” suggested THe Stax reporter. “I have,” said Mr. Barker, “During the past stx or seven years I have built about $350,000 worth of houses, including those I am now en- gaged in building. These houses have, I be- Heve, enhanced in.value during that time over $60,000, Ground that was worth only 50 gents a foot when I commenced building six or seven years ago is worth now $1.25 and $1.50 afoot, Ihave sold the houses as fast as have built them, and all to good people, many of whom have come down from the northwest to live Bere. Tam not the only person engaged in buildi The Gunton estate has built many houses here, and others have been build also, You sée,” continued Mr, ‘Barker, spread: ing before him @ map of the building the ri Coe operations have been confined to on the north side of the rail- road, between 7th and 13th streets, right back of the Smithsonian grounds. The southwest is naturally a very beautiful locality. Itis@ sugar-loaf shaped hill, about forty-five feet above high tide, with the crest centering gradually trom all’ direations to a graceful culminus at 10th street and Maryland avenue where it commands a range of attrac- tive views, which apparently nothing can ever cutoff, An attractive feature of portion of Washington is its healthfulness, Strangel’ $ jigst erroneous prejudice exists against Sout ‘Washington in this respect. Still the records and maps of the health department show the southwest to be more healthy than any other section of the city. Nota foot of this part of Washington ts swam) yorlow. The southwest 1s not without its architectural or seonie land marks. The Washington monument is seventy feet to the left of the boundary line that se rates the southwest from the northwest. ‘The most beautitul half of the parks stretchii from the Capitol to the river, the congression! and agricultural green-honses,the Smithsonian, the National Museum, the new Medicai Museum, the Agricultural department and Printing and Engraving buildings are there. “There 1s no doubt,”” said Mr. Barker, “that the railroad has kept back a great many from this part of the city. It does not affect us much in this portion between Virginia avenue and the Smithsonian grounds, 1am building now nearer the Tailroad than lever did before. The houses I refer to front on reservation 101, through which the railroad passes. I have never sold a house toa person who does not believe that the railroad will be removed some day. If the railroad is removed this will, with- outa doubt, become one of the prettiest spots in Washington. Ivhas many natural advant- ages, besides being near the center of the city. “This reservation 101,” observed Mr, Barke referring tothe map, “corresponds exactly with Mount Vernon square in the north. You seeit lies between the same streets, 7th and 9th, and has two intersecting avenues. It is of th me size as Mount Vernon square, and is naturall; as well located. Still it hag been neglected, and does not presenta very attractive appear- ance. Col. Wilson, the commissioner of publi¢ buildings and grounds, has surveyed it, and will ask in his next annual report for an appro- priation to beautity it. When the Potomac im- provements is completed, with its drives, lakes, gardens and fountains—the flowery dream which the near future is sure to realize— the demand for the removal of the rail- Toad tracks from Maryland and Virginia avenues, will be more urgent than ever. Maryland ‘avenue, which pusses, through tis reservation 101, you see, affords direct commu- nication between the Capitol and this riverside park. Indeed there seems to be no other direct ‘approach to the park. With the avenue rid of the railroad and concreted it is easy to imagine what a splendid boulevard it might be made. Llook for all this,and more, in the future of South Washington. The strange unreasonable- ness witn which old settlers cling to traditions prejudicial to the ‘Island’ may soon be turned. to profit by enterprising men of wealth, who see the southwest as it Isand is tobe. A few keen speculators are already buying up vacant lots, which prejudice and the railroad compa- nies haye combined to reduce tominimum igures.” oe A SUNDAY SHAVING CASE APPEALED.—This morning in the Police Court, Mr. Thomas Miller, counsel for Rudolph Sauer, chirged with keep- ing his barber shop open on Sunday, said that after examining the case he thought that the proper way to proceed was to let the case go to the Criminal Court on appeal and there have it certified to the General Term, and he was now ready to take judgment. ‘The court im- posed a fine of $20, trom which he appealed, filakew Esha SALE oF Business Property.—Catharine K.

It is twenty-four pages this week, containing a very broad and exhaustive range of opinion on the Irish question, the new Morrison tariff bill, clvil-service reform, the Blair educational bill, the strike and arbitration, electricity and in- ventors, finance and commerce, and a score of other twpics. All the opinions quoted are gleaned from the editorials of the representa- tive newspapers and periodicals of the country, including those published in foreign languages. ‘These opinions are given just as they appear, and the paper shows a remarkable freedom from political bias or prejudice. There certainly has never been published in this country a paper which gave as tuithful a reflection of current American thought, and it will prove invaluable to any intelligent; person who desires to know not only what one or two papers think of public issues dnd questions, but what the whole press of the nation, in fact, what public opinion thinks of them. “Public Opinion” is now on sale at all the hotels and news stands, A. Lorne Sorrerer CLEANSED, PURIFIED AND BEAUTIFIED BY THE CUTICURA REMEDIES, Itaffords me pleasure to give you this report of the cure of our little grandchild by your CorIcuRA REME- pims. When six months old his 16 hand began to swell, and had every appearance of a large boll. We poulticed it, but all to no purpose. About five months after it became a running sore. Soon other sores formed. He thenzhad two of thém, on each haud, and as his blood became more and more impure, {t took less time for them to break out, A sore came on the chin, beneath the under lip, which was very offen- sive. ‘His head was one solld scab, discharging a great deal. This was bis condition at twenty-two months old, when I undertook the care of him, his mother having died when he was a little more than a year old, of consumption (serofuls ofcourse.) He could walk Uttle, but could not get up if he fell down, and could not move when in bed, having no use of is hands, I smmediately commenced with the Curicura REA prxs, using the Curicuna amd CUTICURASoaP freely, and when he had taken oue bottle of the Cuzicuna Resolver his head was completely cured, and he was improved in every way. We were very much encouraged, and continued the use of the Remedies for year and a half, One sore after another healed, a bony matter forming in each one of these five deep ones Jus? before healing, which would finally grow loose and were taken out; then they would heal rapidly. One of these ugly bone formations I pro- served. After taking a dozen avd a half bottles he was completely cured, and is now, at the age of six years,a strong and healthy child. ‘The scars on his hands must always remain: his hands are strong, though we once feared he would never be able to use them. Ali that physicians did for him did him no good. All who saw the child before using the Curr Cura ReMxpres and see the child now consider it wonderful cure.

The Nationals hed ss their opponents yoster Gaythestrong team from Jersey city,composed: men from the old Virginia and Trenton clubs, ‘The home team was victorious by a score of G to 1, both sides earning @ run. The game was an unusually interesting one, and was well played throughout, The visitors are a big strong set of men, and will probably follow the Newarks in the race for championship of the Eastern league, ‘The same clubs play to-day. Carroll made one of the most wonderful gatches ever seen on a ball field, ‘The ball from Reccin’s bat went on a line to left conter field. Carroll ran like a deer for it. but could not have touched it had he not reached out sideways as the ball was about to strike the ground regard- Jess of his centre of gravity. He turned a com- ete somersault, but arose’ with the ball tight- spedin hishand and carvlessly threw it am storm of applause, Dowias also made a heat catch ofa high fly. ‘This sterling player has begun his old practice of clearing the vicinity of the second base from stones during the progress of the game. Gilligan hes captured the audience. Seldom has ball player Jumped into such popularity ashe has. His catching of the wizard's curves 4s something pretty to look at, while his throw- ing and batting cannot be excelled. An error by Gilligan would readily be excused by the “(Shaw 4s the Joker of the team. He nicknames the menand keeps up a runtiing fire of pleas antries.
