ERNESTINE BECKER Gives $2,000 BAIL FOR HER APPEARANCE, Wednesday evening Mrs. Ernestine Becker, alias Studley, ex-clerk of the redemption divi- sion of the Treasury, was arrested and gave bail in $2,000. The indictment found against her, as mentioned in Wednesday's Srar, charged her with having in September last embezzled $940, and a bench warrant was issued and Lappe in the hands of Mr. Joyce, of the marshal’s office. That gentleman found her at No. 328 Pennsylvania avenue, she having moved from her residence in the northwest section of the city. and took her in custody. She at once sent for her counsel, Mr. Simon Wolf, and bail having been procured (Mr. Gustav Lansburg) they went to Judge Mont- gomery’s residence, in Georgetown, and bonds in $2,000 for her appearance were entered into. Mrs. Becker, when taken in custody, seemed very much surprised. and said she thought that the affair had been dropped. -— More Absurdity. To the Editor of Tux EvexiNe Stan: “Equal Rightsdor All,” in Wednesday's Star, referring to Mrs. Cole’s bay window, says; “She has endeavored to get what a few others have been lucky enough to obtain, but what has been denied to citizens generally. If she holds it she will be fortunate above the majority; if she must finally give it up she has no just ground for complaint, since she knew ‘she stood in an exceptional position from the start, and that any expenditures she made in conse- quence were made at some risk.” How in “an exceptional position,” and why “at some risk?” She had full per n of the city authorities to build as she is doing, and what does it matter whether she stood in n exceptional position” or not? If the priv- ilege granted to her has “been denied to citi- zens generally” such denials probably have been where, if granted, the privileges would have seriously interfered with private rights. Each case should be decided on its own merits. As truly remarked by Judge Merrick, ‘In this case there is no obstruction of the highway,” nor can it be shown that there will be any ob- struction of the view from any quarter justify- ing the least og wear On the contrary, the building will be a handsome improvement to Thomas circle. This writer talks 2s though he thinks Mrs. Cole may finally have to give up this improvement. Who, pray, is going to compel her to give it up?’ Has not this perse- cution gone far enough? Justice.

A series of petty thefts have been discovered at the Washington navy-yard. The property taken was worth several hgndred dollars to the government, but yielded little to the thieves.

As the attention of the audience was directed to the person making the announce- ment, the incident was not noticed by many persons. Officers Ellis and Heller, who were in the theater at the time, went to the box where they thought the shot had been fired and arrested J. W. Robinson on a c! of carrying the pistol. Mr. Clay Gray, who was with Robinson, objected to his companion be- ing arrested. On the way out of the theater @ scuffle took place and Gray R sae his head bruised. The chicors state that the men were intoxicated. They denied that they, were drunk, but admitted that they had drunk two bottles of wine in the theater. This morning, when the case was tried in the Policé Court, Mr. Robinson denied that he fired the shot or that he had ever carried a revolver. The offi- cers testified that when the arrest was made the defendant Meg sca the weapon on the floor. The bullet from the pistol could not be found, so that it is not known in what direction it went. Mr. Robinson was acquitted. A charge of disorderly conduct against Robinson and G) was also dismissed. Caranna Isa complaint which affects nearly everybody, more or less. It originates in a cold, or succession of colds, combined with impure blood. Disagreeable flow trom the nose, titkling in the throat, offensive breath, pain over and between the eyes, ringing and bursting noises in the ears, are the more common symptoms. Catarrh is cured by Hood’s Sarsaparilla, which strikes directly at its cause by removing ull impurities froma the blood, building up the diseased tissues and giving healthy tone to the whole system. STUFFED-UP FEELING. “For several years I have been troubled with that terribly disagreeable disease, catarrh. I took Hood's | Sarsaparilla with the very best results.
