Steps Taken to Secure the Development of Feminine Muscle. There wassa jolly rattling among the dry bones of indifference to physical cultare among womankind in this city yesterday afternoon, and when the appointed hour came for the meeting to discuss ways aud means of organ- izing a class for that purpose it was numer- ously attended. The hour was 4:30 p.m. and the place the residence of Miss Jennie Ed- wards, at No. 1812 Corcoran street. The ath- letic enthusiasts are not limited to any one age, as there were present yesterday a company in which were commingled pretty school girls in their early teens in short frocks, turbans and braided hair, ladies in the twenties and thir- ties and afew in gray hairs, Miss Bessie H. Blount, the younger of the two sisters who are doing the pioneer work of the organization, explained to the assembled women what she had accomplished in her undertaking. She has been promised by the regular iustructor in gymnastics at the ¥.M.C.A. rooms that she shall have the use of the association gymnasium roomsand his instruction on Tuesdays and Saturdays of each week and forthe hours be- tween 1 and 3 o’clock, the first hour for prac- tice and the second hour for class instructions, if she could raise aclub of twenty members. The meeting of yesterday demonstrates that several classes of that number can be organized from those who are anxious to take the exer- cisce, From the spirit manifested at yester- day's meeting a prophetic soul could without ditticulty see in the near future a beautiful temple, in the Greek style, raised and dedica- ted entire by gratefnl fathers. brothers and husbands, to the use of woman for her physical perfection. WOMEN IN THE DEPARTMENTS. Letters were received yesterday by Mise Blount from women who could not attend the meetings promising the support of the writers and their friends in the project. There was also a piea from women in government employ in which it was asked that a ciues be arranged for an hour that would not exclude those who were engaged until after 4 o'clock and for whom the beuetits of a gymnasium are especially desir- able. ‘The gymnas' proposed for the fair athletes will not be of a violent character, but rather a sort of advanced cxlisthenics, something more heroic than what is ordinarily taught in the schools. They will swing Indian clubs of a light weight, throw dumb bells and rings, pose under the grace wands and use the appliances generally of the musculine gymnast. CORSETS AND SKIRTS, The question of dress is an important one, as the main barrier in the way of the feminine athlete is that she won't take off her corset and she cannot exercise with the steel jacket on, These young women have taken the resolve to adopt a proper dress for the exercise, and have guaranteed that the members of the club will conform to that rule of hygiene that forbids compressing garments about the vital organs while in the gymnasium, atleast, ‘Ihe pro- posed costume is to be of bine cloth bloase waists, skirts aud trousers to the knee, hosiery and tennis shoes, A protest was made by some of the ladies present for skirts a little louger than the regulition, which was granted. Miss Blount wishes to arrange for the first meeting of the class as a class on Saturday, November 2, at the Y.M.C.A., and for con- cluding arrangements a meeting will be held on Wed the 20th instant, at 4:30 p.m., at No. 10i6 Massachusetts avenue, to which all who are interested in the matter are invited, THEIR ROOSTERS CROWED. Owners of Boisterous Chickens in the Police Court. The crowing of roosters occupied consider- able attention of Judge Miller's time in the Police Court this morning. In one case Chas, H. Smallwood and John Smith, colored, were defendants, and Mrs. Margaret Brown was complainent. The parties live near 2ist and F streets, Lawyer Johu Webb appeared as coun- sel in the case. Mrs. Brown told the story of her troubles with the roosters, and the defendants made their statements. One claimed that his rooster was too small to crow loudly and the other said that his rooster was sick. “What is the matter with it?” asked the judge. “It's got the pip.” Lawyer Webb argued the case and said that Commissioner Douglass, who was his next door neighbor, was the owner of several roosters and he thought he would call the Commissioner as an expert, After farther talk about the roosters Judge Miller uceepted the personal bonds of the defendants, Mrs, Mary Murray. who lives at 1005 E street, was next called. ‘he complainant in the case was Mr. Robert Rodney. “Her chicken,” said Mr. Rodney, ‘thas a sharp, strong, shrill voice that permeates along the wall» of the houscs that act as sounding boards,” Mr. Rodney came pope to make out a case against the lady, for he had a letter from one of his neighbors and an affidavit of an- other. Mrs. Murray said that the rooster was a ban- tam and was kept in a stable at night. Judge Miller decided that the rooster “‘must go,” and Mrs, Murray gave her personal bonds to make soup of the fowl, Army Anges. Appointments—Firat Lieutenant Theodore E.

Washington the Only Place Where the Government Can Exercise Control. To the Editor of The Evening Star. No convocation of the American nations can be held in 1892 save by and under the au- thority of the United States. This proposition is accepted as true by all localities which strive to obtain the location of this grand celebration for 1892. New York, Chicago and St. Louis are the principal places which are to contest the capi- tal of the nation for the site of the celebration. But with an undivided voice they all declare that the location must be under the jurisdic- tion of the national government and held by its authority. I propose to show that there are insurmountable obstacles in the way, applica- ble alike to each of the cities named, and they cannot be overcome except by a change in the fundamental law, which cannot be secured in time for the exhibiton of 1892. Authority, which underlies the term “emi nent domain,” was seated in each of the origi- nal thirteen states as its independent life, and was never surrendered by the adoption of the Federai Constitution, This was one of the “rights reserved to the states, To surrender it was to commit suicide, So the uniform practice of the general gov- ernment has been to purchase as a site for government building, such as a custom house, ‘ederai courts, &c.. k the state to cede its jurisdiction to the United siat National authority then, for the first time, can be there exercised. This author- ity must not and caunot be associated author- ity. The jurisdiction must be wholiy national or wholly state or municipal, There can be no divided jurisdiction. Lhe “power to control commerce with foreign nations and amoug the several states” does not give the jurisdiction needed. Nor cau acompauy incorported by Congress invade this prerogative of a state, All national railway corporations, when enter- ing a state, have been required to use some charter granted by or approved by the state. This is conceded to be the lawand the uniform practice of the government, Now I ask, how cau this national jurisdiction be thrown over the 300 acres of ground re- quired for the site of the convocation? It is uot proposed that the government shall pur- chase it! Nor that the state or city shall lose its control or withdraw its right tu collect the taxes assessed upon this real estate. How, then, is it tobe controlled by the authority of the nation? If the general government is to be in authority then no city police ean demand that peace and good order shall reign. All state and city officers on this ground are only civilians, No United States officers could execute the pre- cepts of courts, and there are no laws enacted where there 1s no jurisdiction, either state or national, thut could be enforced, and there are no courts provided for such exigencies, The common law, and such as the government has provided for the national territories, is the ouly system of jurisprudence which can be called into requisition. And such a congre- gated mass of life and property as will then and there convene would never trust itself in such legal complication of authority. Now let it be clearly stated, if this convocation of states is to be under national jurisdiction (as al! contend), then the hands of the state or city must be kept off. Tt under state authority the general govern- ment must have nothing to do by way of con- trolling it. National jurisdiction follows own- ership and authority ceded by states, But there is no law for the song government to acquire title from unwilling owners by appraisement = —— tion, seri prgpree — = e no private property in a 8 for public use. Neither can a state do it for the purpose of extending national jurisdiction, How absurd the pretense that the site of the exhibition can be within the jurisdiction of a state, and yet the exhibition and all its appurtenances to be under national authority! This statement forces me to say that the convocation of states for 1892 to be heid under national authority must be where that authority is exclusively national, The “exclusive jurisdiction” jd in the secure: Constitution ps United States for the na- f THE EAST WASHINGTONIANS.

A blooded mare and an ox at Cowan station, Kentucky, were turned into the same enclosure yesterday morning. War commenced at once. The mare used her heels and teeth and the ox his horns. The dust flew and the fight was ter- rible. All efforts to part the combatants were futile until the ox finally gored the mare in the neck, breaking off a horn. The mare dropped dead and the ox reeled over, dying from the kicks and bites of his fallen enemy. ———+e0-______ Stole the Postmaster General’s Razors.
