Every person intending to apply fora license must pay to the assessor the fee re- quired for such license and file with that offi- cer at least ten days before the first day of November of each year a petition setting forth the name and residence of the applicant, the piace where such license is desired, the name of the owner of the premises; that the place to be licensed is necessary for the accommoda- tion of the public; that the applicant is the only person pecuniarily interested in the business asked to be licensed, and whether the applicant has bad a license during the pre- ceding license year, or any part of it, which for any cause has been suspended or revoked; that neither the applicant, nor any person for him, has given or promised to any of the signers of the written permission required by the third paragraph hereot any reward or com- pensation of any kind or value for such signa- ture, and that the applicant is now and intends tobe forthe next year an actual resident of the District of Columbia. This petitiof shall be subscribed and sworn to by the petitioner. ond. That the approval of applications for license for the sale of spirituous liquors must precede the opening of places where such liquors are sold. Third. That with every application for license there must be presented the written permission ofthe majority of the owners of real estate aud the majority of the residents keeping house on the side of the square where it is desired to lovate such business, and on the side of the square opposite the same, and if a corner house such siguers will be required in ull cases on both streets. (The term “residents keeping Louse” does not include boarders, persons renting rooms or tenants of flats). All signers to such applications must be made in ink, and agents signing must name their principals. The fact of such ownership of real estate and of the required residence shall be certified by the assessor of the District of Columbia, and the genuineness of the signatures of both property owners and residents shall be ascer- tained and certified by the lieutenant of the olice precinct which embraces such proposed ocation, PERSONS WHO NEED NOT APPLY. Fourth. That licenses will not be granted to the following classes of persons or places: @. Any person, building or place within four hundred feet of a public school house owned er occupied by the District of Columbia, meas- ured from the principal entrance of each by the ordinary course of travel between such ce and such school house. To any person convicted, or pending tion 1 court, for selling or giving liquor the preceding license year to a soldier volunteer, to a minor, to any conficmed drunkard, or to auy intoxicated person, or to any premises where gambling has been allowed, or or which are or have been used asa bawdy house during said year. e. To any person convicted or pending pros- ecution for violation of the liquor-license law or ions during the preceding license year, liquor on Sunday or after midnight to 4 o'clock a.m., or with selling ‘out license, and the application of ua will be considered, person keeping a place where idle, y, disorderly or suspicious characters con- gre: toa woman; to any person who had not a retail license ‘the preceding year, until the number on any space between any two streets shall be reduced to one. excepting on business streets or avenues. Business streets, for the purpose of this regulation, shall be held to be streets or avenues or portions of streets or avenues between two streets crossiug the same which sre principally occupied for pur- poses of business. e. To all grocery and provision stores, and in all such cases the fact that such store is not completely separated from the place where liquor is sold and entered by a separate and distinct entrance will be sufficient ground for the denial of the license. J. in all cases of application for wholesale licenses it must be shown satisfactorily that the places where it is intended to carry on such business are properly arranged for the sale of spirituous liquors as merchandise, and that the party making application has not and does not 4 to sell liquors to be drank upon the remises. A conviction of a wholesale dealer for selling intoxicating liquors to be drunk on the premises will be sufficient cause for revok- ing the license. EXAMING PREMISES, g. All applicants for license shall allow the duly authorized agents or officers of the Com- missioners ful! premises for wi nd prior liquor wi y granted. and all licensees are ured to frame their license and place the same in his or her chief place of business so that it shall be conspicuous and easily read,and neg of this requirement will be suiticient cause to annul said license, ’. When an application for a liquor license has been rejected by the Commissioners the same will not be recousidered upon the same showing nor upon purely cumulative evidence. To obtain such reconsideration a written mo- ‘ion must be filed with the secretary of the board of Commntssioners, clearly setting forth the new and independent facts or reasons upon which a revie asked (with all the evidence in support thereof), and if such license is again Fejected upon such rehearing the applicant will be required, if he desires » still further bearing, to file a new application, Fifth. Liceuse will not be granted where it shall appear to the Commissioners that the place applied for is in a neighborhood occu- pied largely by private residences and the en- trance to which is within 50 feet of the entrance to @ private residence the owner or lessee of which shall file with the Commissioners a pro- test against such license, or where there are, in the opinion of the Commissioners, more such places than the accommodation of the public warrants, and the Commissioners reserve the en. to limit the number of saloons in any lo- cahty. Sixth. License will not be granted to any per- fen employed in any capacity under the Bis. trict government or toany person who, by rea- son of any other employment or business, will be absent from the licensed place during busi- ness hours, or to any person not an actual resi- dent of the District of Columbia, OBJECTIONS BY CITIZENS, Seventh. The Commissioners will consider any valid objections made by citizens to any application, provided such objections are specific in their character; that is, against » particular applicant and bear the signatures of the parties making the same, Eighth. Licenses to sell intoxicating liquors by retail in that portion of the District of Co- lumbia outside of the cities of Washington and Georgetown will not be granted to aby person whose place of business is within one thousand feet of another place licensed for the same busi- ness, excepting in cases where four-fifths of the | heads of tamilies residing in said portion of ‘aid District within ove mile of the premises for which such license is asked shall Petition therefor, Ninth.

It bas many things in its his- to be proud of, but the brightest page in its history is the fact that it promptly tendered its services to the government when the war broke out in 1861. Col. W. G. Moore, its present commander, has held that honorable position for eighteen consecutive years, and shortly after the organization of the District national guard he became the colonel of the first regi- ment, of which the infantry is the first battal- ion. Should the weather interfere there will be no further effort to parade, but the ceremony of presenting a number of veteran members with service-badges will take place in the arm- ery shortly after 5 p.m. Fire Last Night. About 8:45 o'clock last evening a fire took place at house No. 819 F street southwest, occu- pied by John Sorrell, William Williams, Mrs, Riley and Jobn Hillary.

The will of the late Prof. Elias Loomis, which was made public m New Haven yesterday, bequeaths the bulk of the estate, which is valued at from $250,000 to €300,000, to Yale university, to be known at the “Loomis fund.” After various small bequests the will provides that all the professor's books and pamphiets which relate to mathematical and @hysical | sciences go to the university.

The Political Outlook in Town and County. Correspondence of Tux Evexixo Stax. Faspraicx, Mp., September 17. The approach of the nominating conventions of the republican and democratic parties in this county sees a largely-increased interest manifested in the subject of politics, and the candidates in both parties are making an active canvass among their friends, Among those who have recently announced themselves as aspirants for the various positions is Mr. J. Roger McSherry, an active young democrat and a son of Chief Judge James McSherry. His aim is for the house of delegates. Mr. H. F. Steiner, one of the republican aspirants for the shrievalty, seems so far to be in the lead. The democrats are not making their fight openly, but it is known that they are aS a anxious to carry the county, and espec: elect a majority in the board of county com- missioners, Itis not thought thateny of the republican incumbents in body will be re- nominated, but that new men will be chosen. ‘The republicans held their primary meetings throughout the county on Saturday and selected delegates to attend the begga J convention here next Saturday. They also selected members of @ new county cen’ committee, Interest now attaches as to who shall be its chairman. Mr. Wm. M. Hardt is the incumbent. ‘The September term of the circuit court for redecick county convened yesterday and promises to be a long and interesting session.

Fr. M. — KENTUCKY COLONELS. How it Happens that They are so Numerous in the Blue Grass State. From the Louisville Post. It is somewhat hard for an outside barbarian to understand why “colonels” are so plentiful in Kentucky. In the first place Kentucky fur- nished a great many soldiers, both to the north- ern and to the southern armies, during the war and naturally some of these soldiers are sure- enough colonels by rank and service, Others, who were minor officers or perhaps high pri- vates, are now dubbed colonels by way of courtesy, Then we have a very few colonels who hold over from the Mexican war, and there are other colonels of militia, like the Louisville Legion, who come by their titles honestly, The governor of Kentucky has the privilege of ap- pointing persons on his staff with the rank of colonel. These colonels are expected to look pretty and martial at the governor's ball and to ride horseback when the governor heads a pro- cession. The last duty frequently gives them great pain and anxiety. There are scores and scores of these governor-staff colonels in this proud old commonwealth, Some executives have been more lavish than others in the distribution of these gilded hon- ors. That kindly old gentleman, Gov, Luke Blackburn, M.D., was fond of creating colo- nels. During his term he made some sixty colonels in the city of Louisville alone, if I re- member the figures correctly. There are vari- ous reasons which entitles a man to this guber- natorial compliment, Col. Will Hays 18 a colonel because he is such a gifted poet, while Col. Albert Dietzman was given his title by Gov. Knott because he was the greatest busi- ness manager on earth. T trust these facts will make it somewhat clearer to the wondering northerner why col- onels are so plentiful in Kentucky. But there are other reasons. Many prominent citizens are honored with this complimentary title simply as a recognition of their merit by the community, Thus every man who conducts a large distillery is ipso facto a colonel; for in- stance, Col. John M. Atherton, or Col. Tom Sherley. Every prominent railroad official is also a colonel; for instance, Col. Milton H. Smith. Every ‘Congressman is a colonel, as Col. Asher G. Carat, Every man with a gov- ernment office is a colonel; as Col. George Du Kelle. Every great editor is acolonel, like Col, Henry Watterson. The chief of the police department is a de facto colonel, as Col, Yood, ‘then there are other gentlemen who are colonels because uo other title fits them, Bat the law on the subject is a little vague and has never been formulated by the legislature, If a man has been a captain in the war never call him captain; call him colonel. He is enti- tled to this promotion twenty-four years after the war closed. The only men proud to be called captain are the conimanders of steam- bouts, the captains of fire companies, the con- ductors of railrozd trains, and the officers in a Salvation Army. The title ot major is compar- atively rare, and, therefore, is really more of adistinction than colonel. Only prominent people who have seen actual service wear the title; for instance, Major Ed. Hughesand Major But still if you call a major a colonel heis not likely to get mad at you. By the obvervance of these few rules I have jotted down the stranger can get along in Kentucky without committing any serious breach of etiquette. ee Gen. Mahoue’s Program. Gen.

SKETCH OF THE CANDIDATE. General Grubb was born in Burlington, N. J., November 13, 1841. He received his prelimi- nary education in the grammar schools of his native city.and matriculated in coliege, from which he graduated with honor in 1860, He entered the service as second lieutenant of com- pany ©, third regiment, New Jersey volun- teers, in June, 1861, and in the following July participated in the battle of Bull Run, He did valiant service throughout the war and was made brevet brigadicr-general of volunteers for meritorious service before Petersburg in 1564, He is very wealthy and resides in an elegant mansion at Edgewater Park. His business in- terests are largely in Philadelphia. WHAT THE PARIS EXPOSITION cost. Minister Reid a Success—But He Will Not Stay Long in Paris. New York Correspondence Cincinnati Enquirer, Nathaniel Page of Washington, who is just back from Europe, where his business as un international lawyer takes him frequently, told me tonight that he regarded the Paris exposition ay the greatest educator of the age. “Why,” said he, “you can by a week's study of the object lessons presented there learn more of the history and development of the human race than you could by a year's reading, and what is true as to history is true in nearly every other department. You can see how the people have lived im all ages, from the cave dwellers down to the present generation, Idoubt very much if we can equal the Paris exhibit in this country, let alone excel it. Their total expense was about $11,000,000, Labor is very cheap in France. Materials’ are d the mere duplication of the Paris enterprise would cost in this country at least $20,000,000. What we can do here will depend somewhat upon Congress. The pro- gress we have made in 400 years presents a theme for illustration by exhibits that can be made unique and wonderful.” Lasked Mr. Page about Ministers Lincoln and Reid at London and Paris, and had just been told that both are popular, and that Mr. Reid is entertaining in a splendid manner at Paris, when a genticman who came over on the same steamer with Mr. Page remarked: “It may not be news to you here, butI was told in Mr. Reid’s drawing room in Paris that he will only stay there this winter. No, I can not say who told me, but it was the current gossip that he Was not satisfied tobe away from his paper over a year; that to be minister during the ex- position period quite satisfied his ambition for government honors, and that, having origin- ally wished to go to England, he would give up France at the earliest moment when he could do so with dignity.” ~~ ——____ Goodwin Said to be Innocent. A Wilmington, Del., special to the Philadel- Phia Press says: Charles T, Goodwin of Phila- delphia, who is awaiting trial on Thursday for the abduction of Alice Smith, a twelve-year-old girlof the same city, will be released from custody. The charges against Goodwin have been disproved by physician and the child went home today, Goodwin will remain here until bis trial and it is not improbable may bring suit against the hotel proprietor or the city authorities for false arrest und defamation of character which are incidental to the charges preferred.

A Boston special says that John L. Sullivan was drunk agaim Monday. He made himself obnoxious at two hotels and went into the bar- ber shop of Clark’s hotel, While waiting his turn he whacked his big fist down on the top of one man’s head and, shaking his other tist i his face, calied him a vile name and cried: “I'd like to slug you.” ictim fled. see Bequests to Church Charities, bequests of $3,000 each to the American board of commissioners for foreign missions of Massachusetts and the Home missionary society; $5,000 to the American missionary association: | board of missious, women’s department of the | Home missionary society and Seamen's home society, soe, The Rebuiiding of Johnstown.
