Moseley secretary. Judge Cooley made an opening address, in which he spoke of the interests of the state commission- ers and of the interstate commerce as being identical. He thought that all would be bene- fited by the conference. The plan of conduct- ing the conference was then agreed upon, and the conference adjourned until the afternoon. THE AFTERNOON SESSION. “At that session Prof. Henry C. Adams, the How a Blooming Rosebud of a Girl Per- fectly Paralyzed a Professor. From Once a Week.

Was the divorce of Pericles as perfect as a Chicago divorce? Why does Aris- tophanes ascribe the Samiay and Pel nes- sian wars to her simply because she lost her lady’s maid?

Was her second husband, Lysicles, a pork packer or merely a cattle dealer?” “Bless my soul!” exclaims the fessor. “Was Phryne’s mother a laun: and is it true that she got her living at one time by gathe capers? Were thoee capers for sauce or legs of mutton? Was her offer to re- build the wails of Thebes if her name were in- scribed on them bona fide? Did she profane the Elusinian mysteries, or was it a put-up job to bring her to Hellasts,in order to let the council see her beautiful anatomy? I incline to this, for Apollo painted her as the Venus Anadyomone, and Praxiteles seulped her as the Cnodian Venus. Was Apollo her lover, as well as Praxiteles?” “Bless my soul!” exclaims the professor. “You see, professor, I am from Boston.” “Aha!” and the venerable professor bounded like one of his crack pupils in the direction of the refreshment-room. ———— A Fable for Young Wives.

MEETING OF THE LEAGUE AND THE SCHEDULE DECIDED UPON. The spring meeting of the National base- ball league was held yesterday at the Arlington hotel. Messrs. Soden, Connant and Billings represented the Bostons; J. W. Spalding, Chicago; F. K. Stearns, Detroit; Col. J. L Rogers and A. J. Reach, Philadelphia; Walter P. Hewitt and L. E. Burket, Washington; F. DeH. Robinson, Cleveland; John B. Day and Walter Appleton, New York; President Nimmick, Scandrett and Horace Phillips, Pittsburg, and J. T. Brush and J. 1. Martin, Indianapolis. It was found that the schedule committee, Messrs, Day, Brush, and Hewitt, were not agreed as to their report anda recess was taken until 4 o'clock. The schedule for the Washington club, as finally adopted, is as follows: WASHINGTON AT HOME. With Boston—May, 3, 4, 6; August 1, 2, 3; September 19, 20, 21. New York—June 1, 3, 4, &; July 29, 30, 31; September 16, 17, 18. on te | 17, 18, 20, 21; July 8, 9, 10; tember VA 5 Pemacitle Ape 96, 25, 96, 27; June 10, fore, to secure a married woman's happiness after the holidays of the honeymoon are over is that she study carefuily the peculiarities of her husband's temper. It is in the power of a wise and good woman to make a lamb of the greatest bear that ever wore whiskers; while by a fool- ish treatment the process may be reversed ahd a —— hearted creature, with all the cupa- bilities of a lion, may end in being a bear or a wolf. A wife must tread on her husband’s tem- per first as cautiously as a prudent boy does upon recently-formed ice. Only when she has learned where the slip- ry humor of her husband will bear and where it will break can she perform with safety those graceful evolutions by which a devoted wife achieves greater triumphs than ever Bonaparte did by his artilley. Wise old Plutarch, descant- ing on the topic, very appropriately brings in the old fable of the traveler, whom Boreas, with his obstreperous blasts, tried to disrobe of his good greatcoat, but the result was quite otherwise, the more violently Boreas puffed his cheeks the more closely the man wrapped his coat about him. But what Boreas could not achieve with all his strength the sun did with a few slight touches of his genial beams. The man was so overcome by the softening influence that he flung both cloak and tunic away. So let no woman so foolishly attempt to gain from her husband in rough way what she can surely gain by gentleness. A Policeman’s Plaint. HE OBJECTS TO BEING MADE A BUGABOO TO FRIGHTEN CHILDREN. From the Pittsburg Dispatch. “Half the children on my beat are afraid of me,” remarked a police officer to a reporter.” “Why should they be?” “They shouldn't be—that’s the case exactly —but they are. It all arises from the foolish practice some mothers have of saying to their children, when they are unraly or get into mis- chief, ‘You'll have to look out or the policeman will catch you.’ Now, I'm fond of children— LT have a family of my own— and I'd rather the little ones, no matter whom they belong to, would like me than fear me. But it’s almost impossible for an officer in his uniform to get on friendly terms with a child, simply because the youngsters are made to think that the officers do nothing but arrest people and lock them up. For my part I object to having children taught to look upon me as a monster. It isn’t right.” ————_+o+—_____ Thought he Was a Thief. From the New York Star. Wall street men have,in newspaper parlance, @ nose for news. They recognize the value of intelligence affecting financial and railroad affairs, and they want it quickly. This led toa queer scene to which I was, some days ago, a witness. A railroad company was to announce its monthly earnings ata certain hour. Now, these earnings would indicate whether theroud was doing well or otherwise. A prominent brokerage house was exceedingly interested in getting the fact as soon as possible. Not wish- ing to wait for the customary announcement through the news agencies in the street, the: sent one of their own clerks to the railroad company’s office. Assoon as the coveted fi; were announced he was to fly back to his em- ployers with the news. He carried out his in- structions, got the start of the other messen- gers who were there on the same errand, and raced up Wall street on the dead run. It was about noon, the street was crowded, and the only conclusion a member of Superintendent Murray’s force who happened it to be passing could draw was that he was a bank thief trying toescape. The ofticer accordingly started in hot pursuit and chased the i man clear into his employer's office. Satisfactory expla- nations followed, but the expression on that 11, 12; August 29, 30, 31.

There were seventy-four victims of the regu- lar and special policemen in the Police Court yesterday morning, ahd more than half that number were out on collateral. There were five females among the prisoners. The cells were not large enough’ to hold the prisoners, and many of them were given seats in the cor- ridor and in the court-room. In nearly every case they were before the court on account of | drinking too much. _ Broken heads, scarred faces and swollen heads were numerous, Many of the prisoners ted the appearance of having been rolled in the gutter. "Their cloth ing was covered with mud. were also number of young men tried for being suspi- cious persons. Most of them were strangers in the city, and some were sent down to become juainted with the Washington workhouse, while others were put under their personal bonds to leave the city as soon as possible. ne Soldiers Threatened to Hang Him. 4 POCKETBOOK SNATCHER ROUGHLY HANDLED.

H. Burnbam in Scribner's. Something has been wisely said of late about the danger of overpressure in our schools, The time spent in study that ought to be spent in out-door play or in exercise in gymnasia is worse than wasted. But the overpressure of intellectual work would not be so bad were it not for the emotion: yt many chil- dren both at home an: ac! |. Teachers are spurred to strain pupils to thé utmost that they may meet the coming tests for promotion. The healthy taneous emotions that make it the delight of childhood to learn are crushed, and factitious emotions of fear and dread are sub- stituted. At home the emotional excitement is often greater than at school. Prizes, the ex- pectations of parents, piano practice, company, parties, dances, petting and reproofs are the stimuli, culminating often in late hours spent in Preparing a half dozen lessons for the next day. The tasks at school, hard as they are, otten are less injurious to children than the emotional dissipation at home. tee. Secrets Read in the Face. From the Herald of Health. , A man’s occupation or condition has a good deal to do with making his facial expression. In- tellectual pursuits, like the studies of the echol- arly profession, when coupled with temperate and moral habits of life, brighten the face and give a person a superior look. Magnanimity of nature, or love of studies and art, will make a bright, glad face: but contrary to this, a man may have a face that does not please. anybody, because of a love of self to the exclusion of all others, notwithstanding his learning and worldly shrewdness. Soldiers get a hard, se- vere look; overworked laborers constantly look tired; reporters look inquisitive; mathemati- cians look otudioen; judges become grave, even when off the bench; the man who has had do- mestic trouble looks all broken up. “An example of the ludicrous side of this sub- ject is to see a third-class lawyer stalkin, around a police court looking as wise asan owl. The business makes the face, I say. There's the butcher's face, the ministerial face, the law- Yer’s face; the doctor's face, the hoodlum’s face, all so distinct each from the other and singly, that I seldom fail to recognize those callings showing through the faces. And what city boy cannot recognize a genuine farmer on the street a8 a farmer the moment he sees him.” A Calculating Woman. From the Chicago Herald. Mrs. Snowball—*So you are going to marry Henry again, are you? I thought you had enough of him for the rest of your life.” Mrs. Coldsnap—‘Circumstances alter cases, you know.

A Monkey Raid on a Cornfield. From the Popular Science Monthly. - When they get ready to start on their expe- dition an old monkey, the leader of the tribe, with a staff in his hand, soas to stand upright more easily, marches ahead on two legs, thus being more elevated than the others, so as to see signs of danger more readily. The rest follow him on all fours. The leader advances slowly and cautiously, carefully reconnoitering | inall directions till the party arrives at the cornfield. He then assi, the sentinels to their respective its. All being now in readi- ness the rest of the tribe ravage and eat to their heart’s content. When they retire each one carries two or three ears of corn along, and from this provision the sentinels are re- on their arrival at their lair. Here we see ability to rule and a willingness to submit to rule; a thoughtful preparation of means to the end in view and a recognition of the rights of the sentinels to be suitably rewarded at the close of the expedition. Wherein does all this differ similar foray of a tribe of savage men? The only difference that really exists is in degree, otherwise it is much the same, ——— oo Shot in a Wooden Leg. From the Baltimore News. “T have seen many narrow escapes from death and witnessed many thrilling incidents,” said veteran James Tilghman, of Queen Anne's county. Mr. Tilghman was a brave and in- trepid officer in Gen, J. E. B. Stuart’s command, and is pow a prominent member of the Mary- land confederate societies. Because of his reckless daring and chivalrous dash he was dubbed “Headlong Jim Tilghman” during the war and the name has clung to him ever since. “One of the most laughable incidents I ever witnessed while under tire,” he continued, ‘was the conduct of a long, lank North Carol'nian at the Wilderness. His leg had been shot off early in the war, and he was supplied with a wooden one, with which, strange to say, he got about with remarkable facility. One day he was charging with his company, and was climbing over a fence, when, spat! a minie ball buried itself in his wooden le; jecting an immense stream of tobacco juice, ‘Darn ye, | feoled ye that time.’ he yelled triumphantly, and rushed on with his comrades.” ———-+e0-____ The Kid was-Bright.

With alert, intelligent and iz2partial special correspond- ents at all centers of interest, by the free use of the telegraph, and with the superior mechanical facilities with which its office is equipped, it covers the whole Seid of news, and is able to presenta reflex of the entire civilized world each day up to the very moment of going to press. In these re spects THE STAR is absolutely without @ rival, and fearlessly challenges comparison, within range of the territory it occupies. In its treatment of public affairs it is impartial and aims to be fair and just to all taithsand inven ‘ests, and it is absolutely independent, in the high- est and broadest sense of the term. In the publi- cation of news it records facts without bias or color, and in the expression of editorial opinion it is as steady and firm in advocating and promoting only what it believes to be right, as it is persistent in condemning and opposing what it believes to be Wrong. It is, in brief, wholly untrammeled by any other interest or consideration than that of serving the public, and securing as far as possible the wel- fare of the family circle, and of society asa whole, With these general objects in view, what Tus Stak specially concerns itself with, and that to ‘Which it gives its best efforts, may be briefly de scribed as THE INTERESTS OF WASHINGTON AND THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA. To these the paper has been unswervingly devoted since ite present management assumed its direction, ‘and this policy will characterize the future career of the paper as prominently as it bas marked ite past history. 48 AN ADVERTISING MEDIUM ‘The EVENING STAR claims to be, and can com ‘clusively establish that it Is, (he best local advertis- ting medium in the world! No OTHEN PAPER PRINTED CIRCULATES 80 MANY COPIES IN THE CITY OF ITs PUBLICATION, IN PROPORTION TO POPULATION. It is hardly too much to say that it is read by the mem- bers of every family in the District of Columbia. It is peculiarly the favorite of the home circle, and {eno less esteemed in the counting room and the Work shop. It follows, therefore, that as an agent 6f publicity within the National Capital and con- tiguous territory it bas no rival An annownce- ment in us columns practically meets all eyes, and, in proportion to the service it gives, its advertising Fates rank with the lowest in the country. Being low, they are rigidly adhered to. There only re- mains to be added on this head, as an indication Of the esteem in which the paper is held by the Dusiness public, which best understands ite own interests in this respect, that, both in the number of subscribers and of new advertisements printed, each year in the history of the paper shows a large increase over its predecessor. For example, during the frst nine months of the present year the average daily circulation of the paper bas been 26,681 copies, and the wholt number of new advertisements printed 30,603, against an average daily circulation of 25,427 copies and 38,594 new advertisements dur- ing the corresponding period in 1887. In short, ‘THE STAR Aas never taken a backward step, and its conductors are determined that it mever shal! ‘akeone THE WEEKLY sTaR Is especially commended to that portion of the Teading public who desire to be keptadvised of affairs at the seat of government, and are so situ» ated as not to need ur care for « daily paper.
