Miss Maria Brumagin, a young woman whose mind is supposed to be affected and who lived at No. 453 Massachusetts avenue, is now in charge of the matron at the sixth precinct Police station for safe keeping. Several years ago Miss Brumagin suffered from a sunstroke, and that, it is thought, affected her brain. She is gencrally sane, but at times she loses control of herself and it was feared that in one of her fite of lunacy she might injure some one. On one occasion she became violent and assaulted ber mother. She also threatened to injure herself, and for these reasons it was deemed best to have her cared for at some place where she could not barm herself or others. When she was placed in the station she threatened to stab herself with her hat pin. The pin was taken from her. She is held by the e sub- ject to the action of ber family. > The Baby Carriage Nuisance. “Move on there, now, and don’t be standing in the street,” is what a policeman said to a col- ored girl behind a baby carriage when she Stopped on S street the other day to converse with another girl who was engaged in the same Occupation. The girls drew apart because they had beard what Judge Mills was going to do with them if they were arrested, but one of them had a story to tell the other and she was bound to tell it. arrest or no arrest. As the policeman slowly walked away southward the girls winked aud laughed at each other. The ave one another a sort of ““meet-me-around. | the-coruer” look and then they walked off in different directions and turned the corners at opposite ends of the square and proceeded northward, meeting again on the other side of the square, where they had their talk out. When Judge Mills announced his intention of breaking up the practice of nurses blocki up the sidewalk the matter was freely discusse by the new policemen, many of whom t they would soon have an opportunity to make &® record for themaclves. In one instance it is a that two girls were arrested. but whether this is so or not connot be ascertained, because if it was true they were released and not taken to court. It is not likely that an: case of the kind will be made as Judge Mills only, going to hold court until the last of this week when Judge Miller returns, and unless he gives encouragement to the officers they are not likely torun the risk of being turned in making a test case. a Excuasio to Bartraore.—The Baltimore Ohio : excursion THE EVENENG STAR: WASHINGTON, TO WORK TOGETHER. The Various State Republican Associa- tions in Washington to Consolidate. 4 PRELIMINARY uEdrixe Last xvawrxo—an- MOVAL OF DEMOCRATIC OFFICE HOLDERS Fa- VORED—DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA DELEGATES NOT YET ADMITTED—A COMMITTEE ON CONSTITUTION. A meeting of delegates from the various re- publican state associations in this city was held last evening at Grand Army hall to form a cen- tral association for promotion of party inter- ests. Mr. Samuel R, Stratton presided, and in the course of his opening :remarks stated that it was not the purpose in organizing a central association to antagonize the national adminis- tration, but to band themselves together to advance the party weal. Asan important ele- ment in this direction he thought that an ef- fort should be made to have removed from of- fice pronounced democrats and have republi- cans put in their placea) In other words, he would administer to the democrats in office a dose of the same medi¢ine the last administra- tion administered to the republicans, He ex- pressed the hope that the present administra- tion would recognize the equity of this course. The work of the association Jay along the lines of party fealty and organization and ES service could be done by encouraging the faith- fal to strengthen the lines and laa dove camp, extra or any other duty required of good, loyal soldiers, ‘he address of the president was listened to with deep attention, and when he had con- cluded the committee on credentials, through Mr. G. Brown, reported the following LIST OF ACCREDITED DELEGATES: Michigan—W. B. Thompson, Capt. R. W. Tyler, Judge B. A. Harlan. Missouri—Jam« T. Hunter, Horace L. Stover, Edward B. Fox. Connecticut—A. F.

THE DISTRICT DELEGATES, Credentials from a District of Columbia as- sociation were presented by G. W. Sargent, W. W. McKey and Leonard Maclana, and the ques- tion of their admission caused considerable discussion. It was contended that there were @ number of republican associations in the District and if representatives from them all were admitted to the association the District would have more votes than the states, It was finally decided to refer the matter to the com- mittee on credentials. Messrs. Harlan of noiege Algate of New York, Hunter of Missouri, Weddel of Pennsyl- vania, and Tracy of Connecticut were ap- pointed as a committee to draft a constitution and set of by-laws and report at the next meet- ing, two weeks hence. The association then adjourned, EE HEALTH OFFICE EXPENSES. Estimates for the Next Fiscal Year— Recommendations of Dr. Townshend.

He says the increase in the amount is absolutely necessary and the work cannot be properly performed for a less sum. The constant addition to this labor con- sequent upon the advance street improve- ment should not be overlvoked by Congress, he says. He speaks of an increase in the clerical force of his on as being necessary and says that a ‘ger number of sanitary in- apectors is imperative. He urges the appoint- ment of an additional inspector and recom- mends that the salary of the medical inspector be increased to $1,500 per annum. a A Husband Sues for a Divorce. Lewis C. Jones (by E.

Cases Disposed a. Judge Mills To- Twenty-six prisoners answered this morn- ing’s roll callin Judge Mills’ court. Five of those who responded were females. A DRUNKEN DRIVER, Benjamin Peterson was called and a colored youth who lias made a bad start in life re- sponded, Rum was the cause of his trouble. “Colliding with two vehicles” were the charges against him. Dr. McKim and G. R. Henson told the court of the reckless manner in which the drunken driver handled a pair of horses and permitted the vehicle attached to them to collide with buggies driven by the witnesses, Judge Mills spoke of the dangerous practice of many drivers and expressed surprise that there were not more persons run over. For the next four months Ben will not have an op- unity to get drunk unless some friends pro- luce $20 to pay his fine. AN OFFICE SEEKER IN HARD LUCK. “No, 10, sir; no, sir,” he answered when arraigned for drunkenness, His name was M. Ingram, He was “a reporter from North Caro- lina,” he said, and could prove it because he hadaroll of manuscript in his hand. His ap- pearance was that of a man who has been “playing in bad luck.” Nort® Carolina “tar” might agree with him, but Washington whisky was too strong for his constitution. | “I was trying to keep my friend trom falling | down,” said Ingram. “He was drunk himself,” ssid Policeman Jorden, “He and Pat re were drunk and were on the avenue hugging each other.” “It was the blind leading the blind,” said Judge Mills. “But I wasn’t drunk,” insisted the prisoner.

Kate admitted her guilt and cleared Umble of the charge, She was fined $5 and he was discharged. : r who appeared as their said he had received & foo in the case, and accused the offiter of interfering because he had advised the prisoner that a lawyer was not necessary, The judge told Lawyer Moss that if he had any complaint to make he had better make it in writing.

Jones, ‘‘is a meeting of greenbackers according to the resolutions passed year ago, It is not our purpose to nominate a ticket, as we meet for organization and to promulgate a platform.

The address reiterates that the general court of 1889 was openly charged by the public press and public opinion with being the most incompetent and corrupt body that ever sat in the state house and that it almost imvariably favored the demands of private and monied interests at the expense of public. Attention is called to the immense growth of single corporations during the past uarter of a century and to the great power of the lobby, The address asks if the people will allow the state to become a permanent plu- tocracy and it calls upom the people to attend the primaries for the next election and get the candidates to pledge themselves to regulate corporations and extend the powers of munici- inistration in matters of public serv- ices, suct as gas, electric lighting, water supply and street railroads, ‘They Sold the Tickets.
