REAL ESTATE GOSSIP. Some Recent Large Transactions in F Street Property. THE ELEGANT APPOINTMENTS IN THE RESIDENCE OF MR. A. T. BRITTON ON SIXTERNTR sTREET— ANEW EPISCOPAL CHURCH BUILDING IN THE NORTHWEST—OTHER MATTERS OF INTEREST. Unlike the proverbial custom of the Dutch, who are said to always put their best foot for- ward, those who are building fino houses in this city are paying special attention to ele- gance and beauty in the interior finish and fittings rather than to mere exterior show. An illustration of this kind is found in the home which Mr. Alexander ‘T. Britton has recently | erected on 16th street near Scott circle. ‘The exterior, however, is not unworthy of the locality where are grouped so many of the fine residences of the city. In carrying out the design which. owing to the width of the lot is of unusually generous proportions for a city honse, both stone and brick has been used. Upon the substantial foundation of stone the superstructure lias been erected. Stone is used in the first story and in the courses, and bits of arving have been wrought on the stone, giv- ing the exterior a richness which adds very much to the effect of the graceful design. A stone porch of ample width prepares the vis- itor. when the carved oaken door is swung buck on its polished hinges, for the vista of ample proportions which the .spacions halls and adjoining rooms afford. ‘There is none of the contracted effect which is so apparent in the majority of city homes. ‘The lofty ceilings and broad doorways and openings all con- tribute to the impression of spaciousness. Rugs cover the polished floors of bard wood and on each side of the ample fireplace in the great entrance hall are seats like old fashioned settles, upholstered in leather, with the richly’ pancied oak wainscoting form- ing an appropriate back — ground. A heavy oak cornice gracefully blends the terra cotta color of the decorated walls with g, which is pancled with oak. An y carved oak mantel with fire place and hearth, covered with a rich imported mar- ble, is an effective feature of the hall, Ou the left of the entrance ix a quaint nook, which is large enough to hold the hat rack and where comfortable chairs appeal to those who like arctired corner. A finely carved ouk ks the line of separation between ce hall and the staircase hall. and on ch side are draped rich hangings. Like the entrance hall the staircase hall is furnished with chairs and is larger than a room in the ordinary city house, A platform sinircuse of ouk leads to the upper stories and at the land- ings are windows, for this house stands entirely aloue aud has openings on the four sides, THE RICHNESS OF OAK from a decorative standpoint is very effectively shown in these two halls as well as in the dining room and breakfast room, which com- plete the suite of rooms. On the right of the halls through ample doorways adorned with elegaut hangings, access is had to the two parlors. where the richest effects of modern house decorations may be seen, The walls are lung with fine silk, In the front parlor the color isa delicate shade of yellow, and in the ad- joining parlor the color is a light terra cotta. The hangings, carpets and coverings of the furniture harmonize with the beautifully dec- orated walls, while the mahogany wainscoting, € ESTABLISHED 100 YEARS. 15 INTERNATIONAL AWARDS.

Ex-Senator Van Wyck, who is now the éwner of the triangular piece of ground fronting on Dupont circle, where the Holy Cross church building stands, has agreed to lease that build- ing for church pur It is understood thatthe building will be used asa mission chapel, under the auspices of either Epiphany parish or the parish of St. Andrews. ‘The purpose is to organize a new Episcopal congregation, and, when the finances warrant, a church edificé will be erected in the immediate vicinity. A fine buildi site at the northwest corner of 18th and P streets, opposite the present building, is now owned by a member of the vestry of beans dl church, who purchased it with the view of providing a location for a new church building in the event that an Episcopal con- gregation is formed end the ground is desired for such a purpose. aes SEVENTH STREET SHOOTING. The Trial of the Arrested Men Con- cluded in the Police Court. In yesterday's Stan it was mentioned that about 2 o'clock yesterday morning a skirmish took place on the 7th street road in which a number of shots were fired from pistols and guns, and one man was wounded, Charles Simms, a colored special officer, receiving a load of shot in his leg. The whole party, com- prising Charles Simms, the man who was shot; Joseph Miles, Daniel Webster and Thomas Brooks, colored; Rudolph Koob, George W. Johnson and A, L. Purner, whites, were ar- rested, and Simms, Webster and Brooks of the colored men and Koob and Jolson of the whites were arraigned in the Police Court sub- sequently for an affray, the District attorney having entered « nolle as to Purner and Miles. After Tus Sran’s report of the tes- timony closed yesterday Daniel Webster testified for the defendants that he was of the party; that they walked out and back, When they were on their return at Whitney avenue the others ran out, saying: “Here's the s— of b—s who attacked us in the wagon. Let’s give them hell.” ‘They walked up to Charley, saying that they were going to take him to the station, and he replied that he would not go, for he had doue nothing, and walked off, and the gun was fired. Charley then tired two shots from his pistol. He was positive that no carriage was coming down 7th street, nor did they fire any shots, "They were walk- ing. On cross-examination by Mr. Cahill wit- ness said he did not know that Simms had a pistol or any liquor. ‘Thos. Brooks corroborated Webster, but said he beard but one shot. Simm» corroborated the preceding witnesses, sayiug that they pressed on him, saying that they were the party who shot at them in the carriage, He denied it and the other crowd said, “Shoot the s— of a b—,” and one of them fired. He th dretreated. He had his badge, but it was on his vest and could not have been seen by the other party. He denied that he had fired before. On cross-examination witness admitted that he had two pistols. He loaded each of them, and admitted that he fired three shots from oue, but could not say who fired the three shots from the other. He had brought them from his home near Brightwood, The court said that he had but little doubt of the shots coming from the Simms party, but it was not an affray and he would have to dismiss that case. ‘The charge of carrying concealed weapons against Simms was tried and he was fined $50, > decorated in silver. The same desiyn is seen in the ceiling of the ad- joining room, but the decoration is doue in gold, The fine paintings and statuary which adorn the rooms are given a splendid ting. Forming a part of the suite of the lors and halls is the dining room and break- fust room, which are finished in oak, the fine plaster work in the open panels of the ceilings being decorated in copper. The mantels in these two rooms are splendid specimens of the wood carver's art, and they are made from special designs, which is the case with all the mantels in the house.

Contrary to the usual custom there are stationary washstands in the bed rooms, Mr. Britton believes that with good plumbing the danger from sewer gas is removed, and in this particular he acknowl- edges that he is a recent convert. The house is heated both by the direct and indirect methods, and every convenience, such as plenty of closet room, é&c., has been introduced. EXTENSIVE F STREET TRANSACTIONS, Large transactions in F street property have been the notable features of the real estate market during the past few days, A genuine surprise was caused by the publication in last Saturday's Star that negotiations were practi- cally completed for the purchase of the St. Cloud building. ‘This is considered one of the eligible corner properties on the street anda number of attempts have been made to buy it. There seems to be no doubt that it has been sold, and that spon this site will be erected a magnificent building. The names of the pur- chasers have not yet been annoanced, but it is positively stated that the property has been purchased by Washington capitalists, A rumor current on the street is to the effect that the purchaser is the Washington loan and trust company, but this rumor is not contirmed by the officers of that company, It is understood to be the design to erect a te! story building, the ground floor to be used for bu ess purposes aud the upper floors for ofices. Another important transaction, which was announced in last Tuesday's STAR, was the sule of the property 915 F street to John B. Larner, attorney, for $46,000. It was learned today from Mr. Larner that this purchase was made on behalf of the National Union fire in- surance company of this city, and that it is the purpose of the company to erect there an oftice building for the use of the company, which is now located in a building of its own on Louisiana avenue near 7th strect, ‘The officers finding that the business of the company as to require increased facilities decided to obtain new quarters, ‘They have secured the services of Mr. Glenn Brown, the architect, who is now engaged in preparing plaus for a large building to be erected on this site. It is proposed to erect « building six stories in height, the firet floor being devoted to the business of the insnrance compa It will probably be known as the Na- tional Union building. The officers of this com- pany are as follows: President. H. O. Towlex: vicep resident, C. B. Bailey; secretary, Noble D. Larner; assistant seerctary, Chas, N. Larner, ‘MR, WILLARD'S PLANS, Another important announcement as affect- ing the interests of F street property is the ro- tirement of Mr. Caleb C. Willard from the man- agement of the Ebbitt house, with which he has been identified for so many years, It is stated that Mr. Willard’s object in withdrawing from the hotel is tobe able to devote more time to his extensive property interests in this city. As was shown by the list of property owners taken from the assessment books of the District and rezeutly published in Tux Stax, Mr. Willard, is next to the heirs of the Corcoran estate, the largest individual real estate owner in the city. The largest part of his property is m the squares on F street between 13th and Mth streets, together with a considerable frout- age on G street. Mr. Willard intends to devote THE REORGANIZED LEAGUE. Greatly Strengthened by the Gain of Brooklyn and Cinciunati. The league is undoubtedly solid in its new organization, With two such strong clubs as Brooklyn and Cincinnati added it can fight the combined opposition of brotherhood and asso- ciation—if the two should join forees—without much danger of defeat. The defection of Kansas City puts the association into a hole and virtually necessitates its relegation to the rank of a minor league. The league has abandoned the sification scheme and has made two or three other little concessions to the rank and file that will undoubtedly win many of the men back from the brotherhood, THE WASHINGTON CLUB is allright under the 40 per cent rule. Sam Wise has signed a Buffalo brotherhood con- tract. The players’ leagne club of New York was yesterday incorporated at Albany, under the title of “The New York. limited.” Delehanty has signed a Philadelphia brotherhood con- tract, and Kilroy of baltimore has signed in Boston, same leagne. Von der Ahe is mad and is beginuing to make threats to fight the leagu He has denied his former st: that the antagonism between the leagn brotherhood was a fight between labor and capital and that he was on the side of ae BOOKS OF THE WEEK.

Be so A Rotten Dock Officer, The inquiry into the rottenness of the New York dock department by the com- missioner of accounts has resulted in the arrest of Wm. L. Smythe, the first witness im the in- vestigation, on the charge of perjury. Smythe held the lease of pier 35, East river, at the foot of Grand street, since that pier was leased by the dock commissioners to a mythical personage who is known in the dock-board records as “Thomas O'Bricn.” Smythe has been the real party in interest, Smythe testified before the commissioner of acconuts on Monday that he never paid anything to Justice Kelly for secur- ing pier 30 for the mythical O'Brien. The wit- ness who sueceeded him was Wm. O'Brien, who had been his book keeper when the lease was secured, He swore point blauk thatin May, 1887, jhe drewacheck for 1,000 for Justice Kelly, which Smythe told him was in part payment for the justice's services in securing the pier. O'Brien also swore that be subse- quently drew $1,500 additional checks, which Smythe told him was for the same object. It his time to the care and improvement of this property. He has during the past two or three years built extensively, But it is said to be his intention to build in that square on F street another large building like the Adams build- ing or the Hooe building. He erected both of these buildings, and he is of the opinion that there 1s of another building of the same DR. FARDON'S NEW RESIDEXCE, The residence of Dr. A. P.

The Application to Release Ward on Bail—More Testimony. ® The hearing of the application for bail in the case of Frank K. Ward, eharged with killing Maurice Adler, was resumed before Chief Justice Bingham yesterday afternoon, Judge Wilson, Senator Blackburn, Chapin Brown and W. K. Duhamel for the defendant and Judge Hoge and his assistant, Mr. Lipscomb, for the government, * The defense caMled Edward Johnson and he was asked if he had not had conversations with F. P. Moncosis, John B. O'Neal and W. J. Geary and said to them that he knew nothing of the case, He replied that he had not. Messrs. Moncosis and O'Neal testified that Johnson had so stated, The first named testified that Johnson also said: “Wait till the police who made the arrest get on the stand und he wiil be convicted.” O'Neal testified that Johnson also said: “If Ward wasa poor man he would be hanged anyhow.” Angus MeSween, reporter of the Post, testified that Ward mado no such statement as “The d— Jow crossed me and I let him have it.” On cross-examination witness was questioned as to the interview in the Post of June 19, and after a number of objections had been made and ruled on witness was allowed to proceed. As he recollected WARD SAID RE HAD BEEN ROBBED ofadiamond pin and that Adler or some of his associates got it. He thought that he said the stone was worth $250. Ward first said that he had no statement to make, but witness hav- ing heard of the trouble at Hurdle’s went to Ward and asked about it. He didn’t think that Ward used the word Jew or said anything abouterossing him. Ward said that had not Charley Hardie taken his part he (W.) would have been badly injured. and he men- tioned Adler as having been in the Ee: Wit- ness admitted thathe was friendly to Ward and was trying to find a line of defense. He asked Ward about the occurrence at the Marble swloon, and he said that he could not for the life of him tell how it happened. He said he was afraid of Adler, He did not remember that Ward said anything about self-defense, but thought he said something about Adler putting his hand to his pocket and he believed that Adler was about to draw a weapon, Some of the published interview was written by Mr. Larner, On redirect examination witness said that Ward at the station was excited and nervous and they gave hima drink because they thought that he needed it. Albert testified that he was at Hurdle’s on the night of June 1; that Mamie Carroll, Mollie Boswell, Adler and another man came in and went tothe lunch counter. It was wugnested that they go upstairs, but they declined to go. ‘They engaged in conversation, which became more animated, and then Adler struck Ward and they clinched. Witness went to part them and the Carroll woman struck Ward with a beer glass, while the Boswell woman struck Ward (over witness’ shoulder) with a beer bot- tle, and they rushed him im the little room, Ward called: “FOR GOD'S SAKE GIVE ME A SHOW,” and witness was about to go to his assistance, but a friend with him held him off. Hurdle then came with a gun and threatened the next one who struck Ward, and one of the women went for the officers, who responded. Witness did not see Ward take a cigarette from any one and put it in his mouth, Afterward, about 4 o'clock, witness saw tho two men drinking toyethor, On cross-examination witness said Adler made the first attempt to strike, and in the melee Ward got the worst of it, judging from his face. John W, Drew, reporter of the Press, was called to testify to the statements of Officers Hughes and Hamilton, but no foundation for contradiction having been laid objection was sustained, Capt. Howard L, Prince, formerly clerk at the Police Court, testified that ho had known Edward Johnson for ten or twelve years and knew that his repulation for truth and veracity was not good about the Police Court and he would not beheve him under oath, ‘The hearing was adjourned to this afternoon. Stopping Runaway Horses. From the New York Mail and Express. Never try to check a runaway horse by arush from the opposite direction. Ten chances to one the horse will knock you down and you will very likely suffer from the collision, In- stead of that, prepare yourself for a short run with the horse, Youcan measure with your eye the distance and start for the run before he is caught up to you, A runaway horse will always keep in a straight line, for he is almost blind with fright and will run into a stone wall, Get just as close to him as you can and when he passes you take a firm hold on the rein, ‘Then leaning backward as you run give him a good, strong jerk. You can add force to this jerk by sliding on your feet, This pulling on the reins tells on the horse and he will very soon come toa standstill, He can then very easily be pacitied, secs Seer Think of This, Bald Heads? From the London Medical Record, Dr. Saymonne claims to have isolated a bacil- lus, called by him “bacillus crinivorax,” which is the cause of alopecia, It is, he says, found only on the scalp of men, other hirsute parts of the body and also the fur of animals being free from it. The bacilli invade the hair-follicle and make the hair very brittle, so that they break off to the skin. Then the roots themselves are attacked. If the microbes can be destroyed early in the disease, the vitality of the hair may be preserved, but after the follicles are in- yaded and all their structures injured the bald- ness is incurable. The following is Dr. Say- monne’s remedy to prevent baldness: Ten parts erude cod liver oil, ten parts of the expressed juice of onions and five parts of mucil: or the yelk of anegg are thoroughly shaken to- gether and the mixture applied tothe scalp and well rubbed in once a week, This, he asserts, will certainly bring back the hair if the roots are not already Westroved, but the application of the remedy must be distressing to the pa- tient’s friends and neighbors, 7 see A Neat House Jacket. From the New York Tribune, Acharming Grecian jacket for honsewear, with matinee skirts, is of cream-white woolen crape in a full blouse with full sleeves, over which a sleeveless jacket of lilac cashmere is worn, This is embroid@red on the edge in square scallops, like Grecian keys. Little coats of striped brocades are also made up for housewear, with fuil undersleeves of white wool crape flowing from the short coat sleeve, anda full blouse vest held down by girdles to be tied over the vest at the waist, These end in points of cmenterie, reproducing the flower and leaf colors in the brocade. A hand- some house sack of coral pink surah is finished with a ruffle of surah, with deep Vandyke points of black lace let in on the edge. The body of this jacket is shirred on toa yoke, finished on the lower edge with points of black lace, and made with a collar similarly trimmed. see A Round Dozen of Don’ts.

The New York Tribune concludes » two-col- ume review of it thus: ‘This book will be read with the keenest pleasure by all who are old enough to have been brought up in the traditions of half a century ayo, while it can be com- mended to young men as a treasure house of informa- tionconcerning perhaps the most striking and able group of statesmen the Union has ever known, ‘The New York Times sa; Mr. Dyer's relation with the great Senators of forty years ago was one very fortunate for the acquiring of fresh impressions, It is imporsible to read his remin- iscences without being aware that the impressions he reports are genuine. 4 The New York Sun says: Among the recent contributions to American history none is worthy of more serious attention than s vol- ume entitled Great Senators, by OLIVER DYER. ‘It would be easy to fill columns with effective ex- tracts from this volume, but we must confine our- selves to two or three examples of incisive and impar- tial delineation, Mr. Dyer's analysis of Webster's in- dividuality is the most searching that we have seen— indeed, it is the only one which accounts at once for the triumphs and the shortcomings of the great par- Mamentary champion of the Union, ‘The New York Press says: In the book “Great Senators of the United States Forty Years Ago” are told,as Dyer only could tell, stories of Calhoun, Benton, Clay, Webster, Houston, and Jeff Davia, with personal recollections and deline- ations.
