Tse Porice Vacancy.—The coming appoint- ment of a police lieutenant to this (7t) pres cinct is the occasion of some speculation among the police here, and not a few of them express hopes that a Georgetown man may get the appointment. Nores.—Word has been received from Dr. W. Bowie Tyler, who is wintering at Summer- field, N. C., that his health has been improved. e Ladies’ german club, of Georgetown, gave a german last night at’ Linthicum hall. About fifty couples were led by Miss Beall, Josepu Correy’s Expensive Cxap-Payina. Three weeks ago Joseph Coffey, a young col- ored man, enjoyed a game of “crap” on Q street, in front of the “twenty buildiugs.” Some of his companions were caught, but Joseph was lucky enough to escape. But it was only a question of time with him, and last night he was picked up by Policeman Welch, Five dollars collateral was left for him, which he forfeited in the Police Court this morning. Aparty of negroes from “Boston” and the “twenty building” gathered near the market on one street yesterday morning and were engaged in a game of “‘crap,” when Policeman Shanks came along and broke up the party. Joseph Coffey was the only one caught. le left 5 collateral, which was forfeited this morning. ——._—__ ALEXANDRIA, - Reported for Tae EVENING Star.

Susan Schoop, the daughterof the murderer of Anton Schilling, was brought face to face with her father at the Central police station in Philadelphia yesterday, and made an affidavit to Magistrate Pole, in which she implicates her stepmother as an accessory to the crime. The substance of her statement is that she was brought to this country by her father with Anton Schilling’s money, and that after arriving here her stepmother told her it had been planned previous to her arrival that she should marry Schilling to gethis money. This she re- fused to do, She was then ordered to pnt poi in Schilling’s soup, which she made do, The stepmother thought it queer that the dose was having no effect, and made her father i lavdanum and give a dose of it to the rope was procured, and it was it id Schilling’ k, strangle sng bim to. the fence in the beck aan een johtiline scmataingsce night from the effect of the arug.

History of an Incident in Wall’s Opera- House Years Ago. “Looking at ‘Erminie’ last night,” said an old theater-goer to a Stan reporter, “brought to my mind an incident that happened in what was then Wall’s Opera-house several years “Wall's Opera-house?” queried the reporter, “where was that?” “It was on the site of what is now Harris’ Bijou. That has been a place of amusement ever since I came to this city during the war. When I first knew it, it was a variety theater, and George Kunkel, George Thatcher, Sem Sanford and others who afterward became famous in the minstrel line used to play there. Then it was remodeled and nicely fitted up by Mr. Wall and called Wall's Opera-house.” id Mr. Wall own it?” ‘I think he did. He was an auctioneer, who had his place of business where the Marble building now stands, at the corner of 9th street and Pennsylvania avenue, and I believe owned the Opera-House building. Well, as I started to say, there was an occurrence there one night which was brought very forcibly to my memory last night as I sat listening to the pleasing music of ‘Erminie’ and laughing at the funny business of Francis Wilson, ‘Erminie,’ as you know, is the old drama of ‘Robert Macaire’ made into an opera, and on the night to which Irefer ‘Robert Macaire’ was being played at ‘all's, Laura Keene and her company were playing an engagement, and for Saturday night a double bill was given, the second piece being ‘Robert Macaire,’ Frank Mordaunt was Macaire, and I’ve forgotten who the comedian was, but just as the piece was well under way some one cried out ‘fire’ from the rear of the house. There was a big audience present, and of course two-thirds of the people jumped to their feet, and every one turned to the back part of the house. ‘Sure enough, up in the gallery, in onecorner, smoke was seen coming out in con- siderable quantity, and for a moment it seemed as if the cry of ‘fire’ was justified. There was a general rush for the doors, There were exits on the sides of the building then, as there are now, and people tried to get at those doors to open them, For a few minutes there was great confusion, Then Frank Mordaunt came to the footlights, and. in his stentorian voice, begged the people to be seated, assuring them | that there was not the slightest bit of danger. He said he couldn't explain the cause of the smoke just then, but he was satisfied there was no fire in the gallery, for there was no way in which one could be ignited. His appeal bad the effect of quieting the fears of most of the audience, and they resumed their seats. Many of the ladies, however, were very much upset, and one lady, who sat in the same row with me, fainted dead away. Of course that raised more commotion in our vicinity, but I fortun- ately hada bottle of ammonia in m: pocket,and she was quickly revived. Then Mordaunt told the story of the smoke. Some man had thrown a lighted cigar into the stove which stood in the corner on the lower floor. _ It was summer time and the stove had not been used for months except as a receptacle for waste paper. This paper caught fire from the cigar and com- menced to burn. The upper section of stove- pipe had been taken out of the chimney. and so the smoke poured out into the gallery. There wasn’tany danger from fire, but there came very near being a first-class panic, and it was only the coolness displayed by the people on the stage and a few sensible persons in the au- dience that prevented serious disaster. Ihave never seen ‘Erminie’ without thinking of that ‘Robert Macaire’ night, and I will tell you frankly that I was then as near as I ever care to be to a theater on fire.” —~-——_ DISTRICT GOVERNMENT. THE LIEN LAW. The District Commissioners have received the following from a correspondent who signp the initials H. C. L: ‘There is not the slightest | protection now for the citizens of this District | against the iniquities of the lien law. Those j who are obliged to pay twice for material are | not counseled to contend their cases in court, even by lawyers who are fond of litigation, The lien law is framed to work. The conse- | nence is that the public is unenlightened and | the law goes on without hindrance. I wish to ropose that at police headquarters there ma: ¢ a record kept of every contractor and dealer who, under the lien law, compels any citizen of the District to pay twice for one thing. Such a record would probably prevent many | contractors from committing the fraud. In the absence of other protection is not this plan feasible?” ‘MISCELLANEOUS. The Commissioners have appointed Dr. J. C. Howard as resident physician of the Washing- ton asylum vice Dr. Thos. J. Chew. The District Commissioners have declined to approve a subdivision made by Mr. C. E. Fos- ter of certain lots in Le Droit park, because it not in conformity with the regulations med by the Commissioners to govern subdi- visions. The health officer has reported in reference to a request that Market space be swept more frequently that the street there is swept every day when the weather permits, Mr. Lewis Cephane has protested against the action of the building inspector requiring him to cut down his terrace and set the fence back four feet on the east side of 18th street in front of his residence, corner of 13th and K streets northwest. He says that to obey the building inspector's directions would destroy a row of trees. —+ Mahone for the Cabinet. VIRGINIA COLORED REPUBLICANS WHO FAVOR HIS APPOINTMENT BUT WILL NOT PUBLICLY COMMIT THEMSELVES. “Will Gen. Harrison put Mahone in the cabi- net?” was the question discussed yesterday by a number of the more prominent colored re- publicans of Virginia, who were assembled in convention at Carson’s hotel. The matter of representation in the cabinet, in which south- ern republicans are so much interested, had brought together for conference such men as C, W. Harris, of Manchester, Fielding Green, of Loudoun; Rev. J. A. F. Taylor. of Richmond; R. G. L. Paige, of Norfolk; J. C. Asbury, of Norfolk; A. W. Harris, of Dinwiddie; Robert Scott, of Charlottsville; Ennis Dickerson, of Henrico, H. P. Bland, of Farmville; J. W. Cochrane, ex-chairman of the republican state central committee, and P. C. Corrigan. Rep- resentatives of the Virginia republicans res- ident in the District were also present, It was finally decided that it would be unwise to publicly indorse Gen. Mahone for a cabinet position at the present time. Individualeffort will, however, be made to impress upon Gen. Harrison’s mind the fact that Mahone has the support of nine-tenths of the republicans of Virginia, All those present were sanguine as to Ma- hone’s chances, and there was a very solid ex- pression of opinion as to the disastrous conse- quences which might be looked for if Mahone was not recognized. Said Perry Carson to a Star reporter this morning: ‘If Mahone is not in Harrison’s cab- inet that will be the end of republican orga zation in Virginia.

Legislators Who Show the Effects of| Each Year Sees a New Calamity Be- | It Has Created Early Training. REPRESENTATIVE TAYLOR AND HIS CHARACTERIS- ISTIO HABITS—A STEADY WORKER WHO IS NEVER DRIVEN—FROM THE PLOUGH TO THE DESK—TWO PUNCTUAL COLLEAGUES AND HOW THEY WORK. The force of early training is often strikingly exemplified in the characteristic habits of the nation’s statesmen. The men who assemble in the halls of the two Houses of Congress come from nearly every station in life, representing the various trades, arts, and professions. One watching them carefully from the galleries might almost guess the training and early oc- cupation of each, Three men in the House are always in their seats in the morning before the arrival of any other of their colleagues. Each of them had to work on his father's farm when a boy, and each bas made money apd reputation by his own exertions, E. B, Taylor is always the first member in the hall, and Sunday is the only day during the session of Congress that he is not in his seat. He arrives always at twenty- five minutes after nine o'clock, hangs his coat and hat in the cloak room, and goes at once to his seat. He never varies from this hour, and it is said of him that he has never been a mo- ment late ata committee meeting or to meet an engagement. He is not an impetuous or hard worker. He beginsat his correspondence as soon as he gets to his desk, but he does not hurry himself. He will stop now and then in the course of his work to smoke or reada paper, and will take time to talk with any frien any sociable person who comes along. without showing impatience to get back to his work. He is always taking time deliberately, but by starting early in the morning he does more work and gets through it much easier than most of his, apparently, more active colleagues. He has mastered the secret of working and ac- complishing much without fatigue. He will not permit anything to delay his arrival on time. Once there he is graciously generous of his time toall who make demands upon it. One day last week a party of Boston teachers were visiting the capital. Being Christmas week there was not much temptation for members to go to the capitol, and Mr. Taylor was the only one in the House. One of the teachers was ac- companied by her little five-year-old girl who raade herself very busy looking at the names on the desks. “Hon. Amos J. Cummings,” “Hon. 8. 8. Cox,” “‘Hon. Thomas B. Reed,” she read, and so on from desk to desk, until a deeply-puzzled look came over her bright face. She looked round for a moment, then, seeing Mr. Taylor, ran up to him. WHY THE BOYS ARE NAMED HON. “Can you please tell me,” she said, ‘“‘why all the boys in this school are named Hon?” The member laid aside his work, patted the child’s rosy cheeks, told her why “‘the boys” were named Hon., and then entered into a pleasant conversation with her, He talked with her all about the “school,” as he humored her in calling it, and about how “the boys” learned to speak pieces and all sorts of things, showing her all sorts of polite attentions. When finally she was called away he walked to the end of the aisle with her and kissed her good-bye. Then he got back to his work again. No matter whether it is a holiday recess or an adjournment over for three days, Sunday is the only day in the week he is notin the House. 5 ON CHRISTMAS DAY he was the only member who visited the capi- tol. At 9:25, as usual. he was there, but he was delayed in getting to his desk. All the many | doors leading from the corridors and lobby into the hall of the House were locked and re- sisted the pressure he put upon them. None of the messengers or other employes were there to open them, and he wentall the way around the big square twice, trying to finda way to get in. Finally he discovered that one of the windows leading into the barber shop had been left unfastened, and he climbed in there. For four hours he sat at his desk and worked without a soul in sight or hearing. Then he climbed out the window again and got home to his Christmas dinner. He graduated in law in 1845, and from that date until 1886, he says, he never took a single day’s holiday. During all that time he worked 365 days in year, not resting on legal holidays or Sundays. He rests as he works, never working very hard and not getting very tired. He got his first training working on bis father’s farm and getting an education. When he grad- uated in law in 1845 he borrowed $100 on good security, and started off by himself to build up a practice. He rented a little office and sat in itfor one year without anyone bearing tne slightest resemblance toa client ever calling onhim. He had to borrow more money, Some years alter that he had saved about a hundred thousand dollars. Then he went security for a man and lost it all, and agreatdeal more. That left him heavily in debt. He went right on in the steady way he bad started until the first thing he knew he was independent again. TWO OTHERS. His two punctual colleagues are Buchanan, of New Jersey, and 8. V. White, of Brooklyn. Neither of them has a certain, precise hour for coming, but they both arrive not long after the Ohio statesman, and there is not much varia- tion in the time of their arri each morning. Buchanan is a hard and earnest worker. White is nervous and active, going at everything with a rush. When the Jerseyman first came to Congress he was placed on the claims commit- tee, and he = hold of ara suc aglins if there was really a purpose in Congress that it should be disposed of. He did the work of two or three men, only to see the most of it go to waste on the calendar. He learned to work on a stony hill-side farm in Jersey. His father and brother being in poor health, the labor of the farm fell on him. From long before the sun rose until the stock was fed, after dark, he worked at the plow and anywhere else there was necessity, and all the spare money he got he spent in books, and sat up until it was nearly time to go to work again, studying. In this way he studied law, while running his father’s farm. Then he started out to put his learning into practice. By thisexperience he contracte two habits. One was getting early at work and writing hurd. The other was buying books. He has quite an extensive library, which has ite foundation on the books he bought while at the plow, and he is constantly adding to ita book or two at a time, buying them just as fast as he can read them—no faster. 8. V. White got his first experience in early industry on a farm and ina grist mill, where he had to work. His experience was not widely dissimilar in character from that of the other two, only that he drifted from law into Wallstreet. He is now the “deacon” of Wall strect, the wealthy banker and broker-mem- ber of Congress, who delights in a clever manipulation of the markets. He is richer and more of the world than the others, and withal an entertaining and original genius. —_——__—_— A Democratic Opinion of Harrison. From the Brooklyn Eagle (Ind. Dem.). It is pretty well known that General Harri- son has offered to no one any cabinet position and he will not do so until February. He is correctly reported to intend to learn all that can be obtained on the subject before he acts, and then to act for himself. There are other relevations which, although they are of a negative character, are such as justify a high expectation of the man. He has not lost the ways of simple living and simple entertaining. He has not given up fishing, hunting, or walking. He has not let any of the very stron; men who have visited his home come beck with the idea that there is much weakness about him. The temptation to pride and the Secoipt of adulatiou to which he has been ex- posed have been very large. The ‘ee and variety of flattery or pleasure to which he has been subjected must have been extreme. He has yielded no false note under it.

INTERESTING FACTS FROM THE REPORT OF TEE UNITED STATES CONSUL-GENERAL AT CATRO— HOW THE FLOODS OF THE XILE ROTH DAMAGE AND BENEFIT THE INTERMEDIATE TERRITORY. “Calamity upon calamity befalls Egypt,” re- marks Mr. John Cardwell, United States con- sul-general at Cairo, in a recent report to the State department upon the rise of the Nile for the year 1888. “The Nile flood of 1887 was disastrous, being so excessive as to destroy great quantities of growing crops, while it also laid waste villages, demolished and filled up shadoofs and sakheyebs, and drove many per- sons, with their animals, to the edges of the desert, where numbers of the latter died or be- came so impoverished as to be useless for some time in the acquirements of agriculture. Pri- vate property was in consequence increased and public debt was augmented. “The Nile flood of 1838, which has now en- tirely subsided, HAS PROVEN ANOTHER DISASTER in a contrary sense to what befell the country in 1887. The highest point recorded by the nilometer at Rhodd. near Cairo, in 1887, was 5 Sep iges (about 44 feet and 4 inches). while in 1888 the greatest altitude to which the waters rose was 18 pics 14 kirats (about 32 feet),a difference of 12 feet. A flood of 22 pics (40 feet) is regarded as quite advan- tageous to all sections of the country. “Owing to the succe: the Banage, the great water clevator for filling the ditches of the Delta, the state of agriculture in Lower Egypt is good. The well-guarded dikes of the branches of the Nile and of the great canals in the Delta protected Lower Egypt against the high water of 1887, while the Banage has saved the same region from present barrenness and desolation. Water has been and is supplied to | all the good lands of Lower Egypt in quantity | suflicient to increase production in growing crops |and the lands have been properly prepared | and planted in winter crops, while. because of the Banage, those now growing, and those to be planted before the season of another flood, may be safely calculated upon as remunera- tive. IN LIMITED DISTRICTS. Even in the Delta there has been and will be agriculturists of Lower Egypt are, in an Egyptian sense, b of Lower Egypt is 2,900,000 acres, not me of which is lost to agriculture because of the low Nile of this year. Still, complaint is made, and will be continued to ficient supply of water in many parts of the Delta, The loss to agriculture, therefore, may be placed at more than double the loss in cul- than one-seventieth duction. “In Upper Egypt there is no mammoth sys- tem for water elevation like the Banage, and canalization is quite limited. There, when the great river fails in its annual bounty shadoofs and sakheyebs may be operated unceasingly through the days and nights of a long year, and yet vast areas go unwatered, and hence in this rainless land remain as barren as desert wastes, The cultivatable area of Upper Egypt is 2,331,000 acres, and of this nearly one-seventh is lost to agriculture. “Unwatered land is not subject to govern- ment taxation, and the direct loss to the state on account of the low Nile of this year will amount to a sum about equal to $1,750,000. The relation of area to population PRESENTS THE APPALLING FACT, that nearly one-tenth of the entire agricultural one whole year. In Upper Egypt the unfor- tunates amount to nearly one-sixth of its entire | population. Unless the government give these | poor beings employment on public works, | which appears improbable, there must wide-spread starvation. A portion of the un- | fortunates may eke out a bare subsistence by repairing to cultivated districts and quartering so obtained will be little better than starvation.

DURING THE LAST SIXTY-THREE YEARS this year, were lost to agriculture. In 1835, 1836 and 1887 there were successively low Niles, the highest water levels for those years being re- spectively 19 pics 15 kirats, 20 pics 17 kirats, and 19 pics 4 kirats. The result was the noted three years’ famine, which almost wholly ruined Egypt, and yet at that time the country had no foreign debt and the modern bond curse was unknown. “The low Nile of this year gives rise to much speculation.” states the consul-general, “in re- ard to more complete fecilities for irrigation. | But tittle more is necessary for the Delta, and what may be necessary is simply more canaliza- tion. In Upper Egypt the case is different, There water elevation is necessary, and with it a per- | fect system of canals and ‘ditches. What will | be adopted it is impossible to predict.

WHITE RUNS FOR OFFICE ON THE PLATFORM OF UNION WITH THIS COUNTRY. An Ottawa dispatch of January 2 to the New York Sun says: There is great excitement over the mayoralty contest in Windsor, which is to be decided on Monday next. _ It is the first in- stance in which votes have been sought openly on the question of annexation with the United States, Solomon White, ex-member of parlia- ment, a strong personal friend of Sir John Mac- donald and supporter of his government, goes to the polls as an annexationist, He says an- nexation is the only salvation for Canada; that in that event her industries. which now lie idle, would be developed, while the terrible burden of taxation would be largely diminished through an alliance with the United States. The national debt, he says, has been increased nearly $12,000,000 during the past year, There is again a large deficit in the Treasury, while | there is a balance of trade equal to 20,000,000 against the Dominion as a result of the year's operations.

ALL BELIEVE THAT GEN. HARRISON WILL BaAve a VIGOROUS SOUTEERX PoLicr—coy, rosTan’s BOOM GROWING, AND ONE STARTED FoR OmAIR- ‘MAN HUSTON—SENATOR HISCOCK'S VisrT. The speech made by Gen. Harrison before the Grand Army post on New Year night, the salient points of which were given in yester- day's Srar, bas caused a good deal of talk among the politicians in Indianapolis, The Tribune correspondent gives a little different version from that already published of the Partreferring to the question of a pure ballot, This paragraph, which was decided by many of the veterans who heard the general, is said to be as follows: I wish to say to you, before parting with you, and I believe I can say it without offense to any Grand Army man, that the parting request I would make of you would be that each of you, if the bugle call should sound again, should stand shoulder to shoulder as we did during the war to preserve a free and honest ballot. There is nothing, I can assure you, that will do more to preserve and maintain our institutions. The only fear we have now is of a currupt and suppressed ballot, and your utmost exertion should be to prevent this.” WHAT THE LANGUAGE MEANS. The correspondent continues: “The speech ‘was warmly applauded by all the Grand Army men here, and was taken generally to show that Gen. Harrison will tolerate no policy towird the south which will involve an ac- comme in the political methods practiced ere by the bourbon democracy, and that he will show no quarter likewise to democratic corruption of the ballot in the north.” The Times man says of it: “Among the poli- ticians it is pretty well agreed that Gen. - rison Means to have a rigorous southern policy: jon that will resemble the poli: | of Thad Stevens and Ben Wade, Most of the | republican politicians here are in favor of such |@ policy, and their bias that way perhaps | makes them put astronger mterpretation om Gen, Harrison's words than they will bear, It | is a fact though that the idea which his com- | Trades of the Grand Army post who heard him } make the speech gathered ond held when they | came out of the meeting that Gen. Har- rison believed that the republican party ought to rule in the southern states, and that it would be his business to see that it did rule, even if gorous measures,” GOV. PORTER'S BOOM GROWING. The Heralds special that the boom started for Gov, Porter a days ago has as- sumed large proportions, and many leading re- publicans begin to look upon bim as a cabinet probability, “It adds: “General Harrison re- cently reveived a letter from Clem Studebaker, | of South Bend. who is one of the wealthiest men in the sta ho was one of the red hot Harrison di: large to the Chicago convention. r Mr. Stndebaker is understood to have said that he had but one re- quest to make, and that was that Porter be | taken into the cAbinet, A similar letter is said to have been received from the Depauws, | another wealthy republican family, It has been the understanding that Harrison and Porter were a little “off” toward each other, but Attorney-General Michener, who comes pretty near knowing, told me to-day that he | Was positive that the feeling between the two men was most kind and cordial. It is also | known that Porter has been calling on the President-elect quite often during the past two weeks. and Micbener also told me that be would be well satistied with Porter. This looke as if everybody is getting ready to hear of the ap- ment of Postmaster-General Albert G, Porter, IN BEHALF OF CHAIRMAN HUSTON. The same dispatch also says: General Harrison was formally notified to-night, through A. H. | Davis, chairman of the republican committee of Lawrence county, that Indiana wants a cabi- net place. On December 5 Davis sent « printed circular to each of the republican county chair- men in the state, which set forth the reason why Indiana should be recoghized and indorsing State Chairman Huston as the man to be honored. In speaking of Huston the circular says:—“His exalted character, emi- nent ability and the services he has rendered combine to entitle him to such manifestations | Of the esteem and gratatude of the republican partly.” The circular continues:—*It has been | Suggested that Mr. Huston’s experience and | business qualifications would especially fit him for the position of Secretary of the Interior.” Mr. Davis received letters from sixty-three chairmen warmly indorsing the circular and strongly urging Huston’'s appointment. He re- ceived letters from fourteen others authoriz- ing him to act for them in the matter. Davis therefore claims that seventy-seven out of the ninety-two chairmen in the state are for Hus- ton. This circular and the letters of the chair- men were to-day presented to Gen, Harrison by Mr. Davis, who strongly beseeched his fi orable consideration. The President-elect, it is said, gave Mr. Davis a patient audience, but did not indicate what he would do, SENATOR HISCOCK'S VISIT. The news that Senator Hiscock had left Washington yesterday, and is expected to be with Gen. Harrison this evening. has caused more gossip than any since the visit of Senator Quay. The Philadelphia Press correspondent after stating that Gen. Harrison called y Col. John C. New, at the Journal office, ant mained closeted with him for an hour, says: “Jt is believed that their talk had some con- nection with the ~ gre visit of Senator, His- cock, of New York, to-morrow, It is well known to Gen, Harrison's friends that he is perplexed over the New York situation more than any other feature of bis cabinet. The in- formation that Russell Harrison brought back from New York after remaining there three weeks has brought him nearer a conclusion, but still he 1s in doubt as to what is the “4 course to pursue. Just after the electi ie sympathy went out gang to Warner Miller, and there is hardly any doubt that if he had selected the members of his cabinet di November Mr. Miller would have been one them, but very strong pressure from Platt's friends has been bearing upon him, until it bas certainly changed his intention to take Miller into the cabinet, and the indicatic present are all favorable to Piatt. Mr. New is one of Platt's strongest friends, and when Senator Teller was here last week he was emphatic in expressing the opinion, it is said, that Platt ought to be taken into the cabinet,” NOTES, Rev.
