STILL FORWARD. Some of the Enticing Contents of Satur- day’s Star. Since the doubling of Tue Sran’s capacity for giving its readers the best of reading mat- ter obtainable in the daily literary market it has showed no signs of resting on its oars and letting one improvement suffice. But it bas gone ahead, improving its tone, increasing its facilities, widening its scope, until it claims, on a just basis, that it is the peer of local journals anywhere and stands in the frontrank of modern fournaliem. With all this growth there has been one point kept steadily in view, and that is that Taz Stan is primarily devoted to home interests, home enterprises and home readers, giving the fullest attention to all matters of the slightest local interest, and straining every effort to leave no stono unturned in the field of neighborhood happenings. The Saturday's Stax has come to be one of the widest read papers in this country, presenting, as it does, » treasure box of news, \ information and amusement. Its scope is un- limited, and by the liberal expenditure of time and means it 1s filled with the cream of ma- terial skimmed from not only the city and the District, but from the country and the world at large. The following are some of the chapters of general and local interest specially prepared for Saturday's paper: COREAN CUSTOMS (Lilustrated):— A trip to the Land of the Rising Sun via the National museum. LEARNED WOMEN (Illastrated):— Something ‘about college alumn@ and sketches of Washington members. SNIPE SHOOTING (Illustrated):— How to take advantage of the bird's peculiar habits. ANALOSTAN ISLAND IN 1810:— An interesting sketch of its condition nearly a century ago. SUMMER SUGGESTIONS:— How the stay-at-homes niay keep cool and comfortable. SPOKES FROM THE HUB:— Notes and comments on Boston and Bosto- nians. By Tae Sran’s special correspond- ent. TOWN AIRS AND GRACES:— How to furnish summer cottages simply but effectively. By Shirley Dare. THE SERVAXT GIRL:— A talk with a shrewd observer on the ques- tion of household help. JOHN BULL AND JONATHAN:— An officer of the old navy who could not be uilied, FARM AND GARDEN How to make good walks in the grounds about a couytry house. AUGUST FASHIONS:— Jenuie June's observations on what is worn at ono of the largest watering places. NOBLESSE OBLIGE:— A charming story in which love is happily triumphant. HOME MA’ Practical RS:— ivice to industrious housekeepers. THE SAiLOR'S TRUSTY FRIEND:— How compasses are made available for mod- ern iron vessels, THE PROPER HOT-WEATHER COSTUME:— The cool man should be dressed in wool, serge, sealskin, and straw. IN SALT AND FRESH WATER:— Swimming discussed from a physician's stand- point. THE GIANT OF ENGLISH POLITICS: Pictares of the every-day life of Gladstone. By Blakely Hall. REAL ESTATE GOSSIP:— An interesting chapter in Washington's steady improvement, OUT-DOOR SPORTS:— What is going on in the base ball world. Horet Exrexse Savep py Jorsixo THE “Pexxsys” Excursion To-morrow NiGHT.— No time is lost or heavy hotel bill imposed on those who go by the popular excursion to At- lantic City to-morrow night. Train leaves Pennsylvania railroad’s station precisely as 9 p.m. Mark it down, scan Nea eRe Education of District Deaf Mutes. Prof. E. M. Gallaudet, the president of the Columbia institution for the deaf and dumb, called upon the Commissioners this morning and submitted an estimate of the amount needed to provide for the care and education of deaf mutes belonging to the District for the fiseal year ending June 30, 1891. The estimate is placed at $10.50, and is based on the proba- ble number of thirty beneficiaries, at a per capita cost of $350. There is good reason, he Says, to believe that the number of thirty pupils will be reached, if not exceeded, during the next fiscal year. ——____ Death ofa Well- Known Newspaper Man One of the best writers and most popular newspaper men that have ever lived and worked in Washington died at an early hour this morning. George H. Jameson came to Washington when the old National Republican Went into the hands of Frank Hatton and Clin- tan Snowden and at once became city editor of tuat paper. When that firm moved to Chicago Mr. Jameson followed them, and for some time he was interested in the publication of a com- mercial hewspaper known as Daily Business, In February last he returned to this city to ac- cept position with his former employer, Mr, Hatton, who had just acquired an. interest in the Post. On July 9, while in the lower corri- dor of the White House, Mr. Jameson was first made aware of the fact that he was a sufferer from the extreme heat of the sun. From this k he rallied, after an hour or two, but the excessive insolation was followed by a con- fag chill and that by malaria ina malignant jorm. Then he laid down his pencil, But few of bis many friends knew of his illness and the announcement of his death was a sad to them. He leaves a widow, daughter of Jndge J. J. Noah, the widely-known newspaper bar og see nt. amison’s body will be taken from this city to-morrow evening, and will be conveyed to Jackson, Mich., the place of the deceased's nativity. — Will Challenge the Winuer. In speaking of the coming fight between Kennedy and Young, which is to take place in ten days, “Billy” McMillan stated this kate gem ‘that they w: nay age foe fair seray = would, no doubt, make a good fight. _ Millan slso expresses ‘his intention of challenging the winner of this fight.

Cost of Mr. ‘Roosevelt 's Candidacy. “Does it cost much to be a candidate for mayor of the city of New York?” queried a Stan reporter, who was chatting on matters political with Civil Service Commissioner Roosevelt this afternoon. “It cost me but very little,” was the com- missioner's reply. “My whole contribution to the fund when I was acandidate for the mayor- alty was 3600. Added to this were subscrip- tions from my brother, my brother-in-law, two cousins, and six or cight friends who among themselves made up $1,400 more ‘This sum and mine were added together and the entire $2,000 were handed over to Cornelius Bliss or Van Rennsgoclaer Cruger. That amount was probably the smallest sum any mayoralty candidate has ever paid his way with. That is all my candidacy cost me, and I do not know of anyone else who ever tried to get along on $0 little,” ——o—__ ATLANTIC Cry Excurston.—As usual the B. and O. B. R.

James Jackson's love for candy has got him into trouble several times. The boy was ar- rested only two years ago for stealing candy, but on account of his youth Judge Miller took his personal bonds, Yesterday the boy went into Schleath’s store, on 41¢ street southwest. He came across the money-drawer before he reached the candy and was proceeding to empty it, when he was arrested. When he faced Judge Miller to-day the boy had nothing to say. Judge Miller said he would send him to the reform school if there was room in that in- stitution for hi —___ Rhode Island’s License Bill Passed.

THE SEWER PIPE CONTRACT. Injunction so Modified as Not to Inter- fere With the Somerville Contract. In the case of the Potomac terra cotta com- pany against the Commissioners of the District of Columbia and others Judge Montgomery this morning rendered his opinion, on the mo- tion of Thomas Somerville et al., modifying the injunction so that it will not interfere with the sward of contract. The Potomac terra cotta company succeeded in obtaining an in- Junction to restrain the award of contract for sewer pipe to other parties, alleging that their bid, filed with Commissioner Hine, was the lowest and had not been considered. The judge says that it appears that Somer- ville et al. were not served with process, and they were necessary parties to the bill, and after referring to his former ruling discusses the bids, noting that while complainant's bid for all the material is 10 per cent lower than that of any other bidder, yet Somerville’s bid is for only'a part of the:material, sgetogating $4,805. The Commissioners acce; wep Somerville bid for 6, 15, 8x6 and 12x6 ips, gregating 4,730, and the figures of com- pens for the same would be $271.50 in excess of that amount. The pro were to furnish ‘the following-described mate- rials or so much thereof as shall be awarded to us,” and under this proposal he did not see why the Commissicners might not accept the bid for the articles of the person who filed the lowest proposal. He thought that the Com- missioners had a perfect right to accept a lower bid for any or for all the material, and therefore the acceptance of Somerville’s pro- posal to furnish 2,000 feet of 24-inch pipe at 62 cents was lawful and proper. The injunction heretofore granted will therefore be so modified as not to interfere with that part of the pro- posal or contract. ——— DIED TO AVOID CRIME. George Fish Was Harassed With a De- sire to Kill, Rend or Damage. A Bristol, Conn., special to the New Yor k World says that George A. Fish, a compositor in the ofiice of the Bristol Press, committed } suicide yesterday morning by shooting himself in the heart, He was at work last night and was heard to say, in speaking of a young lady from New York who is visiting at his house, that if he ever got out of acertain scrape he would never get into another. He lived with his mother, two sisters and an invalid brother on South Elm street. He lefta letter, in which he says: “I consider thatI am doing what is best for myself and for the community at large. For several months—over a year, in fact—I have been laboring under a great difficulty, Some- thing at times takes possession of me, and it is only by exerting all my will power that Iam able to keep from committing a crime. A de- sire to kill, rend or damage that is becoming uncontrollable seizes me. I preter to put my- self out of the world in this manner than to bring disgrace upon my people and friends by killing some one and dying upon the scaffold, I do not know whether I am insane or not, but of this I am positive, unless I end my life in this way I shall eventually become insane. All will power is leaving me ‘and crime stares me in the face.” Cc ANNIBALS | IN BRIT TISH Cc ‘OLU MBL Discovery of aTribe of of Indians Who Eat Human Flesh as a Sacred Ordinance. An Ottawa special to the New York Sun says: An agent of the dominion government, who has been exploring in the northern part of British Columbia, reports the discovery of a tribe of Indians who have for generations indulged in cannibalism as one of their sacred ordinances, during what is known as their winter dances, | ‘They are the Tsimpsheans or —— and believe that the Hamadtsi is a spirit living en- tirely upon human fish on the mountains, Many years ago a number of the tribe went into the mountains, and ing encountered the mythical Hamadtsi, became ghouts or Ham- adtsis themselves, Their families alone pos- sess the right of becoming initiated by going away, fasting in the woods, to meet the Ham- adtsi. The sole purpose isto show the tribe that they are diflerent from ordinary men, and do not care what they eat or what they suffer, Formerly a captive or a siave was killed and presented to the initiated and the olden Ham- adtsis would eat the body in the presence of a general assembly of the people. More recently, although slave extinct, the I 8 have becom so they are reduced to the stealing of After eating the Hamadtsi do not d for some days, but drink warm wate¥.

A doctor from this city goes out every fifth day. The doctor said last night that Marvel has not eaten an ounce of solid food in fifty days, and may live on in shis way fora hundred. He con- tinued: “The story recently published about his eat- ing a piece of pie and some other things is un- true. During all these days he has taken. sev- eral pints of milk. He is quite vigorous and ugilistic. This fasting has entir y changed is nature. Before he was vert gen he is ready to fight any one who comes near his bed. I have great trouble in feeling his pulse. He strikes at me, and if I get my hand on his wrist he twists it until I have to let go.” The disease Mr. Marvel is suffering from, the doctor thinks, has affected his brain. Iti disease of the arteries. Round bouy aceumu- lations can be felt in the arteries at the wrist and are probably present throughout the sys- tem. ‘These cause paralysis of the swallowin, «pparatus, which provents taking food. Marve is eighty-six years old. Don’t Get Lerr.—Buy your tickets to-day for the excursion to ‘Aulantic City to-morrow night.
