What is known as the “camp” isa small set- tlement not far from Freedman hospital, The inhabitants are mostly Italians and negroes, The “camp” has been the scene of a murder and a number of serious assaults. It was a long time before a policeman could take & prisoner from that section without being as- saulted, and it was there that Policeman Mal- Joy came near losing his life when arresting a negro. Thursday afternoon the little settle- ment was the scene of an outrageous assault committed on a small colored girl by a number of colored boys. THE VICTIM of the alleged brutal assault was Linda Woods, a sixteen-year-old girl who lives on Pomeroy street at No. 402. The assault oc- curred in the house of a colored woman named Johnson, only three doors from the home of the girl's parents, The little girl called at Mrs,John- 8on’s house tosee Mrs. Johnson's daughter Flor- ence, Mrs, Johnson was not at home, but there were a dozen or fifteen boys in the house. ‘One of the boys opened the door to her knock and the girl inquired: “Is Florence in?” and she was answered in the affirmative and invited in, Linda expected to see her companion Florence, who she thought would go walking in the country to see the picmic parties, as it was the Fourth of July. YOUTHFUL FIENDS, When she entered the room the door was closed behind her and a moment later she was grabbed by one of the youthful fiends and thrown to the floor. She recy ta to scream, but her attempt was frustrated by one of the boys holding a towel or cloth of some kind over her mouth. According to the girls story six of the boys assaulted ker. She lost consciousness and remained in the house for some time. When she recovered her senses she left the Johnson house and went home. The boys had left the house. Although tig girl was seri- ously injured she said nothin of the assault until Saturday, when her condition compelied her to tell her mother what had occurred, and then Dr. Henderson was sent for. SIX ARRESTS, Mrs. Woods, the girl’s mother, made com- plaint to the police and the case was investi- gated by Officers Malloy and Passau. They found tbat the boys who were in the house were from fifteen to nineteen years old. Sat- urday night they arrested Amos Givens and George Fry and locked them up. Yesterday the officers arrested John and George Page and this morning John H. Thomas was arrested. Thomas told the officers that he would tell th truth abous the matter and he was detained at the station. The other prisoners were taken to the Police Court to-day and the charge of rape was made against them, Their cases were continued, as the officers will arrest all the boys who were in the house at the time the alleged assault was committed. William Jones, another of the boys charged with committing the assault, was arrested at the Police Court this morning and was locked up with the other prisone! gol scion A Trio of Divorces. In the Equity Court this morning Judge Cox made decrees of divorce in three cases, as fol- lows: The first was that of Ida R. Bangs against James E. Bangs, in which the complainant is given the custody of her three children and tho right to resume her maiden name. They were married at Mount Vernon Place M. E. church Dec, 10, 1873, and lived together till June 15, 1383, when she charges that de de- aoe her. The bill was filed by Mr. E. B. ay. ‘The second was in the case of Laura A. Blin- coe against Joseph Blincoe, in which Mr. Mills Dean appeared for the plaintiff, They were marca Rev. J. L. Hayghe, June 27, 1878, and she charged dosertion in April, 1883. ‘The third was the case of Annie Cowne against Augustus Cowne, in which the bill was filed by Mr. 8, A. Cox. They were married May 18, 1874, and she charged that he deserted her in March, 1876, sihodtat ean ‘The Kelly-O’Hare Suit. This morning, in the case of Jos. W. Kelly against Owen O'Hare, filed last week, to re- cover a sum of money left by complainant's sister, the defendant, by Mr. J. J. Johnson, filed his answer this morning. Tt ‘states that defendant's wife died in 1588, leaving of her savings $940 in his hands, which she enjoined him (defendant) to use in relieving the neces- sities of the plaintiff. He states that the plaintiff, as welt as others claiming to be inter- ested in him, has from time to time importuned him to pay over the whole amount, but he had declined habits that be would squander all of in a single night. He states that he has from time to time made expenditures for plaintiff's benefit and has now in hand 734.28, which he is ready to pay into court or to any person the court may appoint to receive the same. alii w 2 Says He was Elected Vice President. Peter Adlehardt is the name given by a young German who claims that he has been elected Vice President of the United States, He was arrested last night at the house of Mr. Streeter, on the Harewood road, in the county, by Policemen Slack and Fifleld, The prisoner arrived at the house early in the evening and asked for a night's lodging. His request was complied with, and after supper his strange actions and conversation frightened the in- mates of the house, and complaint was made to the officers, who arrested him. The _pris- oner told the officers that he had been elected Vice President and that he was on his way from Christian county, Illinois, to take the oath of office. When taken to the station Adiehardt was charged with being a vagrant. There being some doubt as to the sanity of the prisoner he was turned over to Sanitary Officer Frank, who will have him examined by physi- cians, —___ ALEXANDRIA, Reported for Tae EvENtne Stal ‘Tuk Mivor City Orrices.—All the fire com- nies of the city have united in recommend- ing to the city council the re-election of Chief Engineer J.

Extravagant Prices Paid for Trivial Services at the Race-Track. From the New York World It is @ well-known fact that the value of money is less appreciated by regular racing people than by any other claes of people in the world, even including gold miners, who are notoriously extravagant in sending their wealth. A person who visits a big race meet- ing for the first time is astounded at the reck- less manner in which large sums of money are passed back and forth between the bettors and the bookmakers, Jockeys, like “Andy” Me- betting stand and, as if it were the most com- mon occurrence, pull out an enormous roll of greenbacks and place $500, and even $1,000, on asingle horse, It is “come easy, go easy,” with these lads, and they haven't the remotest idea of the real value of money. On suburban day a World reporter saw McCarthy cash six tickets on Biil Bond, of $200 each, saying, “I knew Larchmont couldn't run a httle bit,” and stuffing this small fortune concerned as possible. ‘A clerk on fair wages would have to be very economic in order to save this sum from a $1.200 salary in two years. On a race-course everything is a great deal more expensive than elsewhere. A glass of beer costs ten cents, a ham sandwich twenty cents, and everything in proportion. Salaries re very high, the starter receiving $100 per Jockeys received for each winning mount, and men like Garrison are paid over $10,000 a season to ride for a certain stable. The book-makers, seventy-five in number at Sheepshead Bay, pay $100 each per day for their privilege. employ three clerks at 10 per day each, and all their expenses are proportionately heavy; As soon as the judges hang ont the numbers of the winning horses, a man is seen to rnsh down to the bookmakers’ pavilion, shouting “Raceland wins! Terra Coita second!” at the top of his voice. This man is the old-time sport, Barney Aaron, and he receives for this slight service €i per day from each book- maker on the line. As there are seventy-five of them, he receives the princely sum of $75 for the fifteen days of the meeting, for performing a service that could be done by a messenger boy “Jim,” the colored boy who carries ice-water around among the bookmakers’ stands during day, gets 50 cents a day from each of the five “bookies,” making his salary per A laborer only receives this much for a month’s wages, The club paid out about $10,000 on suburban day in added money to stakes and pufses, but the $7,500 from ‘the “bookies” alone nearly made this up, while 15.000 must have been taken in at the gate. All privileges for restaurant. &c., are sold at an enormously high figure, and it can well be said that money is scattered about in a princely fashion at a big race meeting. Bookmakers also say that the money handled over their books is of the greasiest and most money seems to have been saved up by the race-goer for especial use at the race track. —— ONLY HER TH. She Wanted a License in a Hurry for Fear He Might Get Away.

What We Know of It—A Wall of Ice 150 Feet High. From Cassell's Family Nagas: The golden age of antarctic discovery ar |rived when Captain, afterward Sir James, | Ross was dispatched from England in 1840 to fix the position of the south magnetic pole | and any other position he cou!d discover on the way there, Before loss could reach the scene of his labors oiber explorers, English, French and American, were busy forestalling him. Of these the first was the Englishman, Balleny, who, sailing in Enderby's ship, the Eliza ott, discovered in 1839 the islands which bear his name, and which lie «lmost under the | antarctic circle ad almost due south from | New Zealand. Bulleny could not land on the j islanus, but he made sure or their existence, and afterward, sailing far to the westward, jhe saw many more signs of land and suspected the existence of much which he = could ot certainly vouch for. What Balleny thought biy much what the Frence expedition under Dumont d'Urvilie actually did see in the fol- lowing year, several long lines of coast, which he saw was proba- ht be joined to one another, and might | run on to join Enderby Land in the west, and if 80 might certainly be ports cf th ant: artic continent that D'Urville was anxious to find.

From the Scientific American. MM. Brown-Sequard and U'Arsevval have made a further statement to the Academie des Sciences respecting their discovery of a poison- ous principle in water condensed from respired |air, New researches, made at the beginning of last year, have shown that this poison, be it simple or multiple, which accot.panies e-pired air, isable, in small quantities, to kill even without being directly injected into the blood, This toxicity is not due to the presence of mi- crobes in the pulmonary liquid, for the same effects are produced by it after having beem subjected to a temperature o: 100 degrees C, in aclood vessel During the past year many experiments have been made to determine the action of the pulmonary poison as it exists im respired air mixed with pure air, the results of which have completely confirmed what has been learned respecting this poison by other methods, An apparatus has been uscd for this purpose, which, while showing the poi- sonous property of respired air, bas also mitted it to be demonstrated that the car- bonie acid of tL. air has nothing to do with ite | toxicity. The apparatus consists of a series of metallic boxes, connected with each other, but shut off from the outer air by sealed joints. An aspi- rator connected with a gas meter draws @ meastred curr‘ of air through the series of boxes, one after another. It consequently fol- lows that an animal shut up in the first box breathes pure ai, while others inclosed in suc- cessive boxes must breath air more and more vitiated. Every care istaken to provide for the drainage « boxes. It was found that animals chut uj. chese boxes died sooner oF later, according to their distance from the fresh-air box, although the proportion of car- bonic acid never became more than 2 or 3 per cent of the air which proved mostdeadly. Pure carbonic acid in the proportion of 20 per cent of the air was breathed by the same a: imals with impunity, Also, when the pulmonary poison was arrested by passing the air contain- ing it through a washing chamber charged with concentrated sulphuric acid, which would not have any effect upon its carbonic acid, the toxic quality disappeared. Hence it may be deduced that the atmosphere .of all badly- ventilated rooms occupied by men or warm- blooded animals is charged with an unknown active poison, which would kill all the inmates if they remained long enough under its influ- so gaa short tic. aflects their Some Rude Proverbs.
