Ps i THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON, D.C, FRIDAY, AUGUST 16, 1889. ALWAYS IN THE LEAD. Some of the Good Things in Tomorrow’s ‘Twelve-page Star. Tar Stan is primarily a local paper. It is the guardian of Washington and ber interests. The record will show that Tuz Sran has been the strong advocate of projects to benefit the District and the persistent opponent of all schemes and propositions which might retard the city’s growth snd prosperity, This devo- tion to local interests has been the mainspring of Tz Star's phenomenal success. The in- creased size of the paper and its extensive me- chanical, editorial, reportorial and telegraphic facilities enable Taz Sra to keep in the front rank of metropolitan journals, Every issue is ® complete mirror of the day, not only of Washington but of the world. Without inter- fering in the least with the regular issue Saturday's paper is always increased in size to twelve pages, and its contents are invariably of great general and local interest. The twelve pages which will compose tomorrow's paper will be. bristling with news and interesting reading matter of every description. A num- ber of special articles have been prepared with- out regard to pains or expense, and it is confi- dently announced that Staturday’s Star will be ® model.

Their enlistment does not eliminate that element from their natures, as is exempli- fied by an order tssued recently from the War department announcing the result of a num- ; ber of caves tried by court-martial at Jefferson barracks last January. There were five re- cruits on trial, four for human frailties and one for desertion, allof them being found guilty. Recruit Levi Chase, colored, mounted service, engaged in an altercation with Recruit Stokes, company B of instruction, and attempted to take his carbine from him inan attempt to shoot him. While being wken to the guard house by Corporal Edwards the prisoner made Use of “profane, vile and insulting language” toward him. He was acquitted of the first charge on a technicality aud convicted of the second, being seateuced to a month at hard labor and a fine of $10. Recruit Geo. F. Davis, company D of in- struction, mounted service, was found guilty of Faising a disturbance in the mess room of his company and also while on the way to the guard bouse of striking a sergeant, his escort. & blow in the face with his fist. This will canse his discharge from the service, a forfeiture of 960 and six months’ labor. Recruit Jobn Guess, company D of instruc- tion, created a disturbance among the enlisted men of bis company in barracks, in which he struck at Recruit Frank Jones with a knife, cutting his clothing. He will be confined at hard labor fortwo months and forfeit $20 of pay. Recruit Benj. Blake, company B, widently ranamuck. Inthe first place he absented himself from tattoo call and was gone a whole day. He ran down to St. Louis from the barracks ou the train, clad in his uniform, and became drunk and disorderly, annoying civilians on the train “to the disgrace of the service and his uniform.” After bis return to barracks he was ordered by Sergt. Settle to go to the ‘d house and he refused, attempting to strike the sergeant acting in so disorderly a manner as to necessitate the use of force to subdue him. Then while in the guard house he committed &n assault on acorporal who was bringing in another prisoner. For all this Benjamin will be discharged from the service after being con- fined « year in the prison at Fort Leavenworth and forfeit all pay and allowances due him. Recruit Chas. Boone, company C, deserted and will be discharged after ive years at Fort Leavenworth and forfeit all bis pay.

Action of the Authoritfes in This City— A Charge of Manslaughter. At the Langham hotel this morning nothing | could be learned of the circumstances attending the death of Gen. Theodore S, West at Asbury Park, and no one could give any information as to when the body would be brought here. As published inTue Srar yesterday, his death, it was supposed. might have resulted from the injuries received during a fight with Sterling Ruftin on | July 6 last, but a dispatch printed elsewhere in | Tue Star states that his death was the result | of Bright's disease. THE DIFFICULTY WITH RUFFIN. It appears that on the day of the difficulty | Ruffin called at the hotel to settle a board bill fora friend, Gen. West, one of the proprie- tors, presented the bill, which Ruffin thought | was too large, and there was an altercation. Whe struck the tirst blow could not be ascer- | tained, but it was charged that Kuttin assaulted | Gen. West with an umbrella. The umbrella | | landed on Geu. West's nose and caused partial aralywia. After the case was tried in the volice Court and Ruffin was fined $10 Gen. West went to Asbury Park for his health, but Wednesday he died. Yesterday afternoon Mr. 8. F. Phillips, at- jtorney for Ruffin, gave bail in the sum of | $3,000 and secured the release of his client. Coroner Patterson was notified and was re- | quested to make a thorough investigation, | So far az the authorities here officially know there is no proof as to whether or not Jeat! | was the result of the assault for which Rufin | Was fined. RUFFIN CHARGED WITH MANSLAUGHTER. Detective Raff today swore out a warrant charging Ruffin with manslaughter. Mr. | Armes called the case to the attention of Judge | Mills and asked that the case be continued in- definitely on account of the absence of impor- | tant witnesses, and such action was taken by the | court, | WHAT DR. MORRIS SAYS. | Dr. G. G. Morris, who attended the general | immediately after he received the injuries at Ruffin’s hands, was seen byw Star reporter this afternoon and was asked if he believed | the damage inflicted then could in any way have caused the geueral’s death. The doctor said he felt satisfied that the injuries could not jhave had any directly serious effect on | Gen. West's health, wound under the nose was a peinful one, but a couple of | here every day. | Said to Bo on the Increase in All of the cae islands looking toward the i POPULARITY OF THE CLAM. The Demand for It as Food and Drink Increasing Rapidly in Washington. “There have been more clams eaten here this season than during any previous summer,” said an oyster and clam dealer to # Stam reporter last evening. “How do you account for that?” the reporter inquired. “Well, I don’t know,” he replied, ‘anless it is that people are just beginning to find out ‘that they are as good as oysters, It depends a” great deal, of course, upon how the clams are kept and shucked. Ip the first place they should be kept on ice several hours and then cut with a reasonably sharp knife. They should not be mashed and ruined in the apenr ped ay using a sharp knife the clams are cut in two, and they are thereby made more palatable and tender. In eating them the heart or tough part of the clam should not be swallowed without chewing. The ice makes the clam tender and takes ay the strong briny taste of the large ones, “CLAM CHOWDER AND CLAM JUICE.” The making of clam chowder to be supplied to families,” he added, “has been done more this year than heretofore. That consumes many thousand clams, Clam juice has become @ popular drink. It is not only healthy but it is very palatable. I have many customers who come every morning for a glass of clam juice. It is a wholesome drink and is a sure cure for sour stomach and similar troubles. It is genuine tonic and has a tendency to sharpen 's appetite.” ‘Yes, | keep them all the year around,” he said in answer to the reporter, ‘and they are fast taking the place ot ood are crowding oysters out to some extent. They can be cooked in any style an oyster can, and indeed clam bakes will no doubt become as popular bere as they are in New England. It’s only a question of time.” WHAT INSPECTOR HARRIS SAYS. “Yes, there are many more clams used now than formerly,” answered Mr. Gwynne Harris, inspector of marine products, when questione: by a Stas reporter this oarges © “I know,” he added, ‘that only a few years ago there were not more than from twenty to forty thousand clams brought here during a week and now there are that many brought The trade has increased fuster than that of any other marine product during the last ten years.” CLAM PEDDLERS AND THEIR CUSTOMERS, There are thousands of clams sold every day or two from small wagons. They are wheeled about the streets by colored men and boys, and newsboys, bootblacks and others enjoy them. Each of the dealers referred to carry @ large piece of ice and a large bottle of ‘pepper sauce." The clams are eaten on the half siell and some dealers use as much as half Hon of “pepper sauce” a day. ‘The clams are sold tothe boysata cent apiece. It is a treat at small lost. te LEPROSY IN THE WEST INDIES. Islauds, From the Pansma Star aud iierald. There is not one of the West Indian colonies in which cases of leprosy are not to be found, In some islands there are but few, and many of which are isolated, In others there are a sufficient number to necessitate the establish- ment of special asylums, In no case, however, has the disease been treated as contagious, and | in consequence, even where there are asylums, the inmates have been allowed to roam about | pretty much as they pleased. There are indi- cations, however, that this condition of affairs will not be allowed to continue much longer. After being for long years a bone of contention between “authorities,” the truth has at last been definitely ascertained that the terrible disease is contagious as wellas incurable. The experience of Father Damien bas demonstrated this, and before the facts of that case, supple- mented as it is by others, all the speculations of theorists go down like card houses. A move- ment is already beginning to be made in the CENTRALIZATION AND ISOLATION of all cases of this disease. And that the move- | ment will rapidly mature we think there can | be no doubt, for even in the islands that pos- sess asylums those institutions are nothing but | nurseries for the disease, since it is contagious, ‘The inmates rear poultry, pigs and goats and cultivate provisions, allot which find their way to the common markets! And institutions or | no institutions, in all but exceptional cases, where the patients voluntarily isolate them- selves, the affected mingle freely with the peo- ple. In Nevis. for instance, the writer has | seen lepers doing scullion’s work for their meals, while in Trinidad he has seen them | served ip a public bar room! While these might be exceptional cases, they indicate the | eat laxity that has existed under the policy ased on the non-contagion theory. Ina word infirmity and leprosy has been treated on equal terms, with the result that year by year the awful disease bas been slowly but steadily spreading. In the Island of St. Kitts, for ex-| ample, while in 1878 there were sixty cases re- corded, in 1888 these had increased to over one hundred! ‘The only means of dealing with the disease and successfully | STAMPING IT OUT | isthat adopted by the Sandwich Island gov- | Of course, sentiment is a powerful factor in man’s relations with his kind, but this is one of | those cases in which sentiment must be sub- | ordinated to an imperative general necessity. Already, therefore, are the most udvanced sec- | tions of’ the West Indian press taking up the | cry for segregation. One of the leading West Indian papers, the Demerara Argosy, gives the ernment—utter aud uncompromising isolation. | — | key-note of the new departure, and says there | is nothing ‘‘to prevent the colonies joining to- gether toward the common object. and looking about for secluded and comfortable quarters | for the lepers, where the unfortunate people would have a pleasant home, amid agreeable } surrounding and occupation for such of them | as were able to work, in quantity enough to keep them from wearying.” ‘The best place that can be found for this purpose, answering all the requirements, would be some one of the many islets of the British Virgin group. There are half a dozen available islands, aggrogatin, nearly 100 square miles in area and populate by about 6,000--the great majority of whom, however, live at the princi, island, Totola. It would, therefore, be an casy matter to re- move the solitary fishing village from some one of the ‘‘out islands” to another, anda leper stitches fixed it up all right. Gen. West was a suffererer from rheumatism and in ninety-nine cases out of a hundred, said the doctor, rheu- matism is accompanied by disease of the heart, often of a malignant type. not improbab! that the cause of death would be found to be heart disease. Dr. Morris said he had never been called on to treat the general for either rheu- matic or heart troubles, but he knew he suffered from both. It was probable that the assault gave the heart a greater stimulus than wes good for it—increased its action—but on the whole he thought it highly improbable that connection would be shown between the it and the general’s de ——o The French Cook Fined. This afternoon in the Police Court Mr. A. K. Browne appeared as connsel for Matthew Brawner, the French cook at Solari’s hotel, who assaulted Mr. Joseph Gegler, mauager of the house, and entered a plea of guilty. The court imposed a tine or $25 or sixty days. — A “Hokey Pokey” Man in Court.

Among the many marvels in the world’s sud- den and swift advancement within these closing years of the great century now so nearly fin- ished, none is more surprising than the courage- ous change of policy, methods and institu- tions shown by Japan. Since Commodore Perry's great work in 1854, in opening her ports to intercourse with other caren advanced at an amazing rate and is now taking a desirable place among the nations, The lat- est evidence of the great change that is going on is seen in the mission of a selected party of young Japanese who have arrived at San Fran- cisco, on a tour of this country and Europe for the of studying American and European a systems, with a view to the estab- lishment of @ congress or parliament in Ja; The emperor having granted to the people a liberal constitution, it yow only remains to adopt the best system of un elective govern- ment. Kentaro Kaneko, the leader of this street who makes “hokey poke, was fined @1 in the Police Court this morning on a charge of assaulting Mary Crofts, who lives iu the house adjoining Storty’s, ey had some trouble about an ice cream sign and in was in evi- dence that Mrs. Crofts attempted to hide the sign with a screen. eared Comforting for the Other Fellow.
