HOPE AND HELP MISSIO) A Statement of its Work Presented to the Commissioners. The Commissioners, as stated in Tae Stan, gave ahearing Saturday to a delegation of women representing the trustees of the Hope and Help,mission. A paper was read by Mrs, Mary E. Catlin, the secretary of the mission, stating what the “Home” has accomplised, and the need of assistance from the District of Co- lumbia. The “Mission,” she said, grew out of the work of the Woman’s Christian Temperance union, and was opened for the rescue of women from the drink habit and from lives of shame. Thé managers have made a practice of sending lady visitors to houses frequented by intemperate and fallen women, to becane acquainted with those who are in a condition of mind to reform. Such women have been brought to the home, put under influences cal- {ulated to produce reformation and taught abits of industry and purity. When possible young girls have been returned to. parental omes. In other cases employment has been secured, and they have thus been | geomgmemenld rescued from wayward lives, ese women have been permitted to regard this house as their home in intervals when unemployed, One hundred and fifty women and girls have been thus cared for during the last twenty-two month. The paper continues: “On January 16, 1888, we moved from 14th street to more commodious quarters. Our present home, con- ‘ting of thirteen rooms, is at 305 Missouri avenue northwest. The house is seriously out of repair, and greatly needs new plumbing throughout, new heating arrangements, &c. Our average expenses, though using the most rigid economy, amount to $100 per month. Our daily average number of inmates for the past year has been eight. The home has been, 50 far, Soe Eo wholly by voluntary contribu- tions.

To the Editor of Tur Evenine Star: In the interview of Dr. John R. Francis, published in Tae Star, he assumes to speak upon a subject that he knows very little about. When the doctor says that the colored schools have not been the equal of the white, for @he last ten years, it becomes necessary to tell him that he knows very little of either the white or colored schools;he has not visited them and he does not know to-day the system of public Dr. Francis does not, as he supposes, get a knowledge of these schools because he has been appointed a trustee. A knowledge of these schools re- quires that they should be visited and studied. If there are inequalities in the schools at the present time, it shows plainly that Dr. Francis as not and is not doing his duty as a member of the board; this fact is well-known. It re- quires a great deal of eunselfish labor on the part of a citizen to fill the office of school trus- tee, and the doctor will not deny that he has utterly failed to give the time and labor neces- sary to the discharge of the duties of a trustee | of ‘public schools, upon the plea that he could | not afford it, and that it would be a pecuniary | loss to him, We have had the doctor over the schools for the past two years, but we have not heard of his efficient services in the school-room nor in the board. The school records will show that Dr. Francis has made fewer visits than any preceding school trustee in the history of the schools, and in eight-tenths of the schools of his own division he has never been at all. It is high-handed assumption for him to speak of the efficiency or inefficiency of the public schools, because he really knows nothing about them. Dr. Francis mistakes larger buildings and @ more complete school apparatus in the white high school, degree of auxilliary help from the well-to-do classes, as being conclusive evidence of the superiority of the white over the colored; the doctor does not seem capable of recognizing the difference in the condition of the two classes of citizens represented in the two high schools. If the doctor means to say that the superintendent, supervising principals and teachers of the colored schools are not the equals of similar officers and teachers in the white schools we can better understand him, and he will have the board, the Commis- sioners and a host of others who know our school system to rise and contradict him; he will find that several committees of the board, composed entirely of white men, differ with him on this subject. It is true that the recent controversies among the teachers was allowed and encouraged by the course of Dr. Francis, and the board and the public are sick of the whole affair; but no evidence connects the office of the superin- tendent with the high school controversy. It is in the course pursued iy the doctor in attempt- ing to play the role of supervising principal and superintendent without being competent to perform the duties of these officers that is one source of trouble. Had the doctor admin- istrative ability, he would not suffer minor matters of school discipline to be paraded be- fore the public and magnified to serious troubles in the schools. It will be a shame for the board or the Commissioners to allow the harmony of our excellent school system to be disturbed, as is proposed by Dr. Francis, who, | like some few other colored people here, think the time has arrived for them to have mixed schools as the surest means of social recogni- tion by the whites, not caring for the masses of the colored children.

For several years past some of the Methodist Episcopal stationed here have dis- cussed the feasibility of founding a home for aged and dependent Methodists whose resi- dence is in this city. The necessity for such a home has been frequently felt, and on more than one occasion Washington Methodists have had to go outside of their own denomination before they could find a roof which would shel- ter, as long as life lasted, those members of the church who were without a home, and who had not the means to secure one. After the matter had been talked over very carefully it was brought up in the toernen meeting, and there every member of that body gave his opin- ion. The ion resulted in the ppo! int- a of a committee, hry aA i “im a ron the sul wi SONA eek Rice ee “ania yews the subject. The committee was com- posed of Revs, J. A. Price, H. R. Naylor, Cc. W. Baldwin, M. F. B. Rice, and George Elliott, and a week after those divines were so instructed they made their report. They stated thata home for aged Methodists was really necessary; that the need was urgent and should be attended to at once, The report recommended that the several pastors lay the matter before the official boards of their churches, and ask those bodies to each appoint from their respective chi es three persons, who should consult with the pastors as one large committee. The report was unanimously adopted and thé names of Revs. J. H. Dashiel and C. H. Richardson were added to the origi- nal committee. It is the present intention of the committee to commence in a small way, renting a house instead of attempting to build. The amount of money they require before they start will be a sum sufficient to pay the running expenses of the institution for at least one year, and this, it is thought, will not be difficult to collect. aoe es Rockville Happenings.

The jury returned a verdict of $428 in favor of plaintiff. It is reported that the grand jury has already found thirty indictments against’ various per | sons in the county for violation of the local op- tion law. The enforcement of this law each term of court leads to excitement and bad feeling in the community, and many persons of that the law should be repealed and a high- license law enacted, as by it the sale of liquor is not prevented, and many make it a means of venting their private spite against those who are competitors in business. At the meeting of the next legislature an effort will be made to have the law repealed, and a high-license law enacted. Mr. George C. Rhodes, of Barnesville dis- trict, has been appoint@l doorkeeper at the court-house, to fill the place of Wm. Magruder, deceased. There were many applications for the place, Winfield 8.

The committee of the knights of labor gen- eral assembly to which the case of Barry, the ex- pelled member of the general executive board, was referred, reported adversely to Barry's appeal at Indianapolis Saturday afternoon, When the report was handed in Geo. Schilling, of Chicago,'took the floor in Barry's behalf, and made a strong speech in favor of the ex- elled member. General Master Workman Powderly resigned his chair to Secretary Elliott, of the grievance committee, an@ made a state- ment of his side of the case. He had stated at the start of the debate that no applause would be allowed, so that the delegates expressed their approval of what was said by their votes, At the end of the debate the roll was called, and the general executive board was sustained by a vote of 122 to 24. BARRY MAKES ANOTHER STATEMENT. Thomas B. Barry, the expelled member of the general executive board of the knights of labor, yesterday gave to the press a long arti- cle explaining his position and repeating his former statements against the Powderly admin- istration, He says: ‘The general assembly of the knights of labor is not a fair representa- tive gathering of the industrial classes of the order. The most unscrupulous methods have been resorted to in order to prevent men who were known to be in any degree oj administration from being electe sentatives to this convention, Records were manipulated and changed in the general offices and membership credited to administration districts, and representatives seated in the con- vention who have no legal right to a seat therein, and representatives who were lawfully elected denied aseat in the convention.” He reiterates his former charges against Powderly and other members of the order, and proclaims his own innocence of the accusations brought against him, Riserxe Noses In the ears, sometimes @ roaring, buzzing sound, or snapping like the report of a pistol, are cansed by ca- as_repre- strong temperance proclivities now declare | sed to the | 25c tarrh, that exceedingly disagreeable and very common disease, Loss of smell or hearing also results from ca- tarrh.

The Frightful Gash Across Jerry Da- cey’s Face Made by John Brown. Jeremiah Dacey, who sells fruit from a push- cart, was cut across the face last evening by a carpenter named John Brown, and was seriously wounded. The cutting took place in the house of Mrs. Annie Revell, a widow, No. 724 5th street, The widow has the rooms on the lower floor and Brown occupies the second floor. Dacey, who was under the influence of liquor, was visiting the widow when the trouble took place. When Dacey was cut he ran from the house with biood streaming from the ugly wound across his face. He was met by Officer Montgomery, who took him to the Emergency Hospital, where the cut was dressed by Dr. Sohn. The gash extended from the lefttemple, under the eye. across the face, and under the bridge of the nose. Had it started one-eighth of an inch from where it did the doctor said it would have proved fatal. Dacey’s trousers were also cut near the waist- band. Thirteen stitches were put in the wound in the face, and the injured man was sent to hishome. Meanwhile Officer Work had gone to the house and arrested Brown, He made no denial of the charge, but. was only sorry, he said, thathe had not accomplished his ‘purpose ‘and killed Dacey. Brown is an Englishman and Dacey is an Irishman, but be- cause he sells bananas Brown thought he was an Italian and referred to him as such, Brown claimed that Dacey had insulted and assaulted his (Brown's) wife, and for that reason he made the attack on him. He stated that he attempt- ed to cut his bowels open, but did not succeed because the knife was dull, and he then cut him acrosathe face. It is claimed by those not connected with the Brown family that Brown had some trouble with his wife and threw dishes at her; that she ran down stairs where Dacey was; that Brown fol- lowed her, and then the trouble occurred. Mrs. Revell is a good-looking widow, about thirty- five years old. Saturday night she purchased a gallon of whisky for 21, and “Jerry” Dacey and another man named “Jerry” were visiting her when the murderous assault was made on Dacey. The latter denies that he assaulted Brown's wife. To-day, in the Police Court, the case was continued because Dacey was not able to appear, —_.———— The Lone Train Robber. A MAN WHO HAS LIVED A DOUBLE LIFE TO PER- FECTION, Two weeks ago Saturday an express car on the Northeastern railroad was robbed 50 miles from New Orleans by a lone bandit who, under cover of his pistol, compelled the express messenger to unlock his safe, pack up his money in a bag, then draw a bag over his own head, which the robber tied with a string, pulled the bell-cord, slowed the car and jumped off, carrying several thousand dollars with him. The detectives later became aware that the robber’s name was Ernest F. Bunch, that he had put up at the house of a pine-woods farmer named Pounds, and that he had a lady friend in New Orleans. Both Pounds and the woman were arrested, and under police persuasion the latter gave up over $1,000 of the stolen money she had received from Bunch, She was held in custody several days, but on Friday was released. She had given information that, it is expected, will lead to the recovery of the greater portion of the proces of the robbery. Bunch has a career that entitles him to a lace in history alongside of Jack Sheppard or esse James. He was a confederate soldier, andlater sergeant of his regiment, guring the war. Since he has been a ™ , lawyer, school teacher, and editor in Mississippi, Louis- iana, and Texas. The United States marshal of the latter state says, he thinks Bunch was at the bottom of all the train robberies in that state in the past two years. He has played a double life to perfection, and served on the United States grand jury in Texas that indicted several train robbers there a few months ago, He is an inordinate gambler, and lost the school he was teaching in Tangipahoa, in Louisiana state, some years ago for teaching his pupils to play p; bee a Mysrertovs Murer or a Cutcaco Grru.—A beautiful young girl was found lying insensi- ble, bleeding profusely from a wound in the back of her head, on the Grand Boulevard, near 42d street, Chicago, late Saturday night, She had evidently been struck with a blunt | { weapon and died an hour after reaching the | hospital.
