2 THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON, THE PEOPLE’S PAPER. Some of the Good Things to be Found in To-morrow’s Star. Tue Stan is for Washington first, last and all the time. The phenomenal success of the paper isdue inalarge measure to its unwavering loyalty to the national capital. It is a thorough local paper, honest in its opinions, firm in its demands for justice to the District from Con- gress and the Commissioners and always giving its readers the fullest and most reliable local news. It isnot sensational, and the people have learned by years of experience that they can rely implicitly on what is in Tue Sram, When the sdvertisements encroached upon the reading portion of the paper the size was promptly enlarged to eight pages. This change permitted of 4 most complete service throughout and the finger of pride is pointed to the fifty-six col- ums daily filled with general and local news, telegraphic matter from all parts of the world, articles of absorbing interest, sketches and live advertisements. On Saturday, however, it is customary to give Tux Star readers something more than their daily literary repast. A twelve- Page paper is the rule for Satprday, and the additional four pages permit the publication of special articles on timely and interesting subjects, which are carefully prepared without regard to pains or expense, and which sre peculiarly adapted to Washington and Wash- ington readers. Some of the features of to- morrow’s paper will be: CAMP ORDWAY (illustrated):— Abright and readable chapter on the Dis- trict militia and the result of the encamp- ment. WOOD AND STONE CARVINGS (Illus trated):— Interesting relics from the Easter Island, as eshibited in the National museum. SUMMER AND FALL WOODCOCK (illus- trated):— Where they are found; how to kill them. UP THE METROPOLITAN ROAD:— Hoppily named and charming places along the line. JEWELS OF THE SHAH:— The barbaric pearl and gold of the Persian THE LONDON SEASON:— The English people and their enjoyment of outdoor pastimes. By Tax Sran’s svecial correspondent. A CHAPTER OF HORRORS:— How the blind goddess is outraged by Chinese officials. By Henry Norman. FARM AND GARDEN:— information and advice about poultry, trees, and flowers. AN ANGLER’S OUTFIT:— Fishing tackle—how and where it is made. HOME MATTERS: Timely and valuable suggestions to indus- trious housewives, DAN’S WIFE:— Acharming story of domestic life with a thread of romance and a happy ending. 'POWN AIRS AND GRAC Midsummer fashions discussed from a Bos- tonian standpoint. By Shirley Dare. WASHINGTON'S FRUIT SUPPLY:— The watermelon and the trade in this and other fruits, IS IT A CRIME OR DISEASE?— Various views about drunkenness, and the proposed establishment of an inebriate asy- jum in Washington, A TALK WITH A CONDUCTOR:— He tells of the peculiarities of those who ride on his car. BEAL ESTATE GOSSIP:— Some interesting facts on an all-absorbing topic. OUT DOOR SPORTS:— On the ball field and the tennis court. axa MARY ANDERSON NOT INSANE. She was Seen Last Sunday in London in Good Health. The New York World has to-day a special cable dispatch from London denying its rumor of yesterday that Mary Anderson had been con- fined in a private insane asylum. The corre- spondent says he saw Miss Anderson last Sun- day and she then appeared in good health. The World then says: “Ever since it was an- nounced that Henry E. Abbey was compelled to cancel Miss Anderson’s dates for next sea- son with the managers throughout the country speculation has been freely indulged with re- gard to the extent of the ailment which affected the accomplished actress. It was feared her illness was more serious than her friends were willing to admit, and some maintained it was likely she would not be seen on the stage again. The comparative silence on the matter by those best informed to contradict these rumors lent a coloring of truth to that kind of Rossip. “Mary Anderson has been a close student and a hard worker for years, and for the two sea- sons prior to her breakdown performed a great deal of mental and physical labor. Of a highly strung, active, energetic and nervous tempera- ment, she was never quiet. She attended the rehearsals not only ‘of he er company, but looked tothe drilling and direction of the supernu- meraries engaged in her plays. One of the first —_ in the theater at night, she was one of the if not the last, to leave it. Her rehearsals were thorough and she was one of the most inter- ested persons on the stage during their pi She was watchfuland nervous about the minutest detail, and was so wrapped up in her art and the practice of her profession that to many who ew her and the delicate and nervous organi- zation she was possessed of the breakdown in health was nota matter of great surprise. It was believed, however, that the ailment was only temporary, that a few weeks or months at most of rest would completely restore her. “So convinced was Mr. Abbey of this that he arranged the date near the close of the present _— ear at pov ot Broadway theater on the assurance om the physicians that Miss Anderson would be completely restored to health by that time. ‘The canceling of that date was the first inti- mation that accomplished actress was not improving as rapid!: Wy as was looked for. Then came the rumor of her insanity, now happily wet at rest by the the World's cable able dispatch.” MR. EDISON IS UPHELD. The Resistance of Men to Electricity Varies Only Little—Death is Sure. The chief event of yesterday’ 's hearing in the Kemmler case in New York was the submission of the results of the experiments made on Tuesday by Mr. Edison, at the request of Referee Becker, to test the variation and the amount of electrical resistance on the same subjects at different times. Mr. Edison took 226 men, all workers in metals in his laboratory, and had their resistance tested by the Wheat- stone bridge. The same conditions of contact and measurement were observed ag last week, when Mr. Edison made the first experiment, which he told of in his testimony. Of the 226 the men came within m ohms of first measurement, finitesimal in electrical experiment Met oH te Berke terday afternoon ——— whose resistance he had measured pa eat ‘ tei & I i E [ g F i PERSONAL MENTION.

The duke and duchess of Portland entertained about 2,500 children from the neighboring villages at Welbeck abbey on the 28th ultimo, and after tea (which was served in the riding school) the duchess distributed upwards of a ton weight of costly toys to the various teachers for distribution among the children. Recently in England they had some teste with the electric search ight to try and discover which colored uniforms were most easily seen, Bed was the most conspicuous, blue the least, The French accumulator of the Commelin- Desmazures type has proved itself well adapted for working search lights. One great advan- tage is that a remarkably powerful current can be taken from it with comparative safety. Zola is said to be the best-paid novelist in France. Mrs. Humphry Ward has just been offered $5,000 for a story of 30,000 words, and John Strange Winter refused an offer of $2,500 for her next novelette.

The Future of the Canal—Washingto- nians Summering in Frederick County. Correspondence of Tax EVENING San. Frepeniox, Mp., July 25. General Tanner ©. Clarke, an old resident of Frederick and now president of the Mobile and Alino railroad, is visiting his old Maryland | 7. friends for afew weeks, He has always felt 4 great interest in the progress of the Chesa- peake and Ohio canal, of which he was form- erly president, and yesterday, in an interview on the subject of its present condition, said: “Although not interested financially in the canal, I do not like to witness its decay and total abandonment as a waterway. I acknowl- edge that the existing encumbrances upon the coupons of the canal and its tolls area bar to floating upon the financial market the loans necessary to make the canal navigable, but I believe that its maintenance on a waterway is a matter of importance to the people living along the banks, and I suggest, as the pro- osed loans have not been floated, that the farmers residing along the banks and the resi- dents of Cumberland, Hagerstown, Williams- port and other points take bonds issued in sums of $25, $50 and $100. At these figures they will be within the means of many people interested in the maintenance of the canal, but who would be frightened by the thousand dollar bond. I would be sorry to see the canal used as a railroad bed, as the mineral and other pro- ducts of western Maryland can be transported to the seaboard much cheaper by water than by rail. If the canal should be disposed of for this purpose the railroad cog © it should be compelled to take all or none. ‘ith one part as a roadbed it would be like a body witha severed head. The mortgage of 1878 was, in my opinion, unnecessary, and does not repre- sent the full value of the canal. I believe that if the legislature would put the bonds which the directors propose to issue upon a par with the bonds of 1878 the former would possess a material value, I suggest that after the canal is restored the towns along its banks be taxed for a small amount to maintain it.” ‘The American Ideal geen company came here from Baltimore last week to give per- formances at the city hall during the stay of the state troops at ip Jackson, Tues- day the: ve stranded financially, and last night Ma ppe the town and left number of unpaid ake. Koetter, a member of the aster gang of the Pennsylvania railroad located here, while at work yesterday on the company’s iron bridge crossing the Monocacy, ee miles from this city, fell through the trestling, a distance of 15 feet, and received severe inju- ries, Michael J. Simms of Baltimore, one of three | gamblers arrested here Sunday last by Sheriff | Alonzo Benner while engaged in the practice of the “shel!” game at Camp Jackson, was taken before Magistrate Thos. Turner yesterday, but waived a hearing and was required to give bail in the sum of $150 for his appearance at the next term of court, ‘The sy tone and dance iven by Miss Le- nore Stone ‘nesday night at the residence of | her father, Dr. D. E. Stone, Mt. Pleasant, was in honor of her cousins from Washington. She | was assisted in receiving by Misses Katie Houck, Katie Goldsboro of Frederick county, Miss Gaither and Miss Weaver of West Vir- ginia, and Miss Stone of Washington. Ex-Mayor of Frederick Lewis H. Moberly, who is now 4 resident of Washington, was taken seriously ill while on a visit here yester- cr; number of summer visitors from Washing- ton attended the reception to the Frederick cooking club given by Miss Grace Purnell at the Frederick femaie seminary last night. ‘Among those who visited Camp Jackson with the governor gemerday were Lieut. M. F. Jamar and J. Cressup of the United States army, Gov. Jackson has expressed his ap- proval of purchasing the present site of Camp Jackson a8 a permanent ground for the annual encampment of the state troops. ‘Misses Alice Strope, Emma R. Gittinger of Frederick, and the Misses Strope of Denison, | Iowa, left here yesterday on a visit to Washing- | ton, Calvin L, Firor of Washington is visiting relatives in this city and county, The Misses Collins and Mr. J, Hadley Doyle of Washington have been spending a week at “Camp Percy,” along the Potomac, at Point of Rocks, Mrs, Knoch and Miss Burch of Washington are = guests here of Mrs. Hildebrand.

They Will Run on Short Time Until the Glut in the Market is Relieved. A special to the New York Herald from Columbus, Ga., says: There is a very import- ant movement among southern cotton manu- facturers, which promises to be successful, to get all of the southern cotton mills that are manufacturing plaids to run on two-thirds time until the glut in the market is relieved. Manu- facturers of these goods in the south have for the past year been running on very close mar- gins and many of them at an actual loss, on account of the fearful cutting of prices that has been caused by heavy over-production of plaid goods. Manufacturers realize that it is necessary to resort to some extraordinary meas- ure in order to save themselves and bring about a more satisfactory state of affairs. There is a strong probability that southern mills will be put on two-thirds time early in August, This will affect at least 50,000 opera- tives and untold 1 millions of capital. DEADLOCK _ IN “RHODE ISLAND. The House Democrats | Decide to Oppose the Senate’s High License Bill. There was a regular circus in the Rhode Island legislature yesterday. Democratic mem- bers of the house were scarce, but a caucus of those who were present was held in the base- ment, and they decided to stand by the original house high license bill and to ignore the sen- ate amendments. When the roll was called on the first motion the tally showed twenty-eight republicans and twenty-seven democrats. Im- mediately Representative Brennan took the floor and began to talk against time, holding the floor for forty-five minutes, In the mean- time Representative Carroll of Pawtucket passed the word about the seats, and there was a dwindling away of the democratic members which speedily reduced the attendance to less than a quorum, The republican members, under the leader- ship of Representative Wilson of East Provi- dence, presented a written request to Speaker Miller, democrat, for the enforcement of house rule 42, which is that the sheriff shall compel all members within the house to remain, and that the speaker should @ his warrant for the forced attendance of the absentees. There was a hint that there was to be some fun with the speaker, and this coming to his ears he — ied all the members to take their seate, id allow no smoking, and calmly took up the statutes to study up the aeceuion prior ra issuing his warrants. leone Mice: they had into a trap, the repub! » by pal frsts wah cous’ against the. protest of the speaker was done © protest of the and the latter withdrew! @ was nO © pro tem., and none could be elected, as there was no one author- ized = any motion.
