Still on the rising vote upon the passage of the bill a majority were in favor of it, but when a roll call was ordered, to put on record all the votes cast, the majority quickly melted into a minority, The first vote was taken on Mr. Hemphill’s substitute sending the members to the Court of Claims for the settle- ment of the matter. This was defeated by a 7) rgest number of orphaus, excepting Boston, Baltimore and Philadelphia, each of these ex- ceeding it by one, but Brooklyn, in its nine orphan asylums, cares for nearly as many or- = as these archdioceses, the number being There are thirteen archdioceses in the United States, with 66 suffragan sees, 5 vicariates apos- tolie and 1 prefecture apostolic, These are governed by 13 archbishops and 77 bishops, « few of the latter being coadjutors, who, with the viears apostolic, have titular sees in infidel countries, According to the directory there are 1,030,000 Catholics in the New York and Brooklyn dio- ceses, 800,000 of them belonging to the New York see.

Secretary Tracy was before the House naval committee yesterday to give expression to his views concerning the navy. He said that the time has come when this country should build some fighting vessels of the firstorder. Al- ready we have made quite an advance in naval construction and have built some cruisers that have proved to be very useful ships, but we should begin to build some armored fighting vessels as large asthe depth of water in our harbors and other conditivns which obtain in this country permit, and of the most powerful types, ine Secretary had with him some designs prow r diy the McCann board which em- bodied hia views of THE KIND OF SHIPS WE SHOULD BUILD, They were not marked out in absolute detail, but contained sufficient data to inform the | | committee sufficiently as to their general type | - | and probable efticiency, Que of these vessels | is to be of 7.500 tons, and her design presents some remarkxble features which may be more clearly understood by the non-professional reader from a statement of the results they are | expected to give, namely, a_specd of between 21 and 23 knots an hour, ability to cruise 16,000 miles on one coal supply, guns equal to any- thing afloat and a battery so arranged as to en- | able the tire of the entire armament to be con- | centrated Le any point of the horizon, The Secretary believed that a vessel of such ex- ceptionally high speed and great power would be able to contend at sea with the best vessels of foreign navies, The subject of coaling stations was also dis- | cussed, and in that connection the Secretary made the point that while our cruisera were otherwise useful they could not defend these stations from attack, and another reason was thus presented to justify his request for the construction of fi, ahting j ironclads, HE LIBELED MRs. may be consulted, eonfi- Lor in person, at the office of MEDICAL.

Is it the word thrash? You wouldn't have me say “beat,” would you? Perhaps flog would suit you better.” “I cannot see the necessity of flogging boys, sir, “What would you do with them, may I ask?” “Reason with them, Talk to them in mild and encouraging tones, Remember that you were once yy yourself.” “I do, sir; and Iam thankful every day of my life for the personal chastisements my good father bestowed on me.” “Cruel, cruel,” murmured the meek man. “Tt is degrading to a boy to be whipped like a brute beast. No boy requires it. 8 can al- ways be managed with kindness.” Every woman in the car looked curiously at the meek man, and the advocate of thrashing had a temporary chill.

Legal proceedings will be begun against the Reading voting trustees as soon as Lawyer John G. Jobneon returns to Philadelphia from Wash- ington, where he is arguing a case before the Supreme Court. A conference will be held as soon as Mr. Jolinson has time for it, One prop- osition that is under serious consideration is an application fora writ of quo warranto to test the legality of the election held Monday. At that meeting Spencer Ervin presented to the judges of election a written protest against the reception of the vote of the voting trustees. This written protest, as wellas others made verbally, were disregarded by the judges who admitted and counted the trustees’ vote. The roposed writ of quo warranto will require the facges to answer by what right they counted the vote. Of course they will put up the votin, trust as a defense, whereupon it will be claime that the voting trust is illegal. This raises the same question that is raised by the Ervin euit, ‘Ihe suit now pending merely asks to have the trust declared illegal and should the court so decide the property would pass into the hands of the stockholders at once. Tho quo warranto proceedings, how- ever, will claim that the election held last Mon- day was illegal and that Mr, Corbin was not rightfully elected president at all, sonal bare = A Historic Barn Burned.

H, J. Taylor, ex-minister to Liberia, who went to Chicago to report the Afro-American convention in detail tor the Atlanta Constilu- tion, New Orleans Times-Democrat, Nashville American and a number of other papers in the south, left that city by an early evening train, In an interview he declared the proceedings were deprived of any practical force by the ab- sence of delegates from the south, where the colored people were most interested in the race question. In the afternoon Mr. Fortune, editor of the New York Age, was called upon to address the meeting. He urged the convention to leave each local league free to pursue such political course in its immediate community as the best interests of the race seem to dictate In tional affairs the league should not comm self officially to any party. “We propose,” he declared, “to accomplish our purposes by the eaceful methods of agitation, through the Pilot and. the courts, but if others use the weapons of violence to combat our peaceful arguments it is not for us to runaway. What is worth having is worth fighting for.” Fortune was frequently interrupted by loud and long-continued applause. A committee on permanent oflicers was appointed. Last even- ing the deiegatea were given a banquet in the First Regiment armory, arranged by the local committee, ——_—s@e Ten Thousand a Year. Yesterday the house of representatives in the New Jersey legislature passed the senate bill increasin; the next governor's salary from $5,000 to $10,000 a year, Gov. Green did about his last official act by signing the bill at once, Gov, Abbett’s salary will be just double that of his predecessor's, ax the bill becomes a law before he is sworn into oftice, It is uniaw- ful in New Jersey to incrcace the salary of auy state official during his term of office. which explains the reason for the passage of the bill under suspension of the rules by both houses, so that the new governor may enter upon the duties of his office with his salary doubled. ‘This is the largest salary paid any governor in the United States, with the exception of Hill of New York and Beaver of Pennsylvania, who re- ceive similar amounts. oe Adjourning Court to Avold a Fight. In Fredericksburg, Va., at the trial of the Mary Washington monument libel suit yester- day, the court room was packed. The demur- rers to the declaration by defendant were care- fully gone over, but the judge overruled them, and the jury was empanelled and the case pro- ceeded, W. F. Kirtley, one of the plaintiffs, was put on the stand. Mr, St. George R. Pitz- hugh counsel for defense, during his cross ex- amination, denounced Mr. Kirtley as aliar. Mr. A. H. Dickin-on of the counsel for plaintiff arose and said that Mr. Fitzhugh would not re- | peat such remurks outside of court. Excite- ment ran high, and Judge McLaughlin deemed it advisable to edjourn the court. His Dream of Death Came True. Levin Schenck, @ resident of Bethichem, Pa, dreamed a year ago that he would die within a year. For several months he brooded over the matter, but as time passed he seemed to have forgotten it and was cheerful. A few days ago Mr. Schenck was taken down with a slight attack of influenza, hardly severe enongh to keep him indoors. "The dream of over a year ago came to his mind, and he told his mily that he was going to die; that he felt sure now the warning would come true. He made arrangements about his affairs, Within | twenty-four bours after he was taken sick his disease assumed the form of an acute brain | trouble, and for several days it took the united efforts of four strong men to keep him in bed, Yesterday morning he died from exhaustion, “eee Judge Kelley’s Will, The will of Judge Kelley was admitted to probate yesterday in Philadelphia, It be- queaths all the household effects to the tes- tator’s wife, Mrs, Caroline Bonsall Kelley, with a request that all such books as sho or her children might not desire shall be given to the West Philadelphia institute, The rest of the testator’s estate is bequeathed to Wm.

It prints ALL THE NEWS, Local, Domestic and Foreign, LONG IN ADVANCE OF THE MORN. ING PAPERS. This is conspicuously true of all classee of news, but especially so in regard to Local News and District Affairs. THE STAR bas a very much LARGER and ‘TTER force of LOCAL RE- PORTERS and SPECIAL WRITERS than any other paper in Washington ever thought of employing, and ITS MECHANICAL EQUIPMENT AND PRINTING FACILITIES ARE MORE THAN THREE TIMES AS POWER- + AND RAPID AS THOSE OF ANY OTHER WASHINGTON PAPER. Itie therefore able to print each day « full Feport of every transaction of public tn~ | terest occurring in the District up te the very hour of going to press. 20: —— By the free use of the OCEAN CABLES for REGULAR AND SPECIAL DIS- | PATCHES, and with the difference of | time in its favor, it is also able to give ite readers every afternoon the news of the WHOLE EASTERN HEMISPHERE for the entire day, and up to 12 o’clock midnight, thus leaving literally nothing | tm the way of news from burope, Asia, and Africa for the morning papers. —— Equally does THE STAR lead all its contemporaries in the publication of the NEWS OF OUR OWN COUNTRY. Receiving the regular dispatches of both News Associations; with alert and enterprising special telegraphic cor- “Us | respondents at all important points; and | with wires leading directly from its own | office to the general network of telegraph j system touching every city, town and | hamlet in the United States and Terri- | tories, it is enabled to receive and print | atonce a full report of every event of consequence occurring during the day anywhere between the Atlantic and Pa= cilic Oceans. —0:—— @ NOTE THE RESULT: 29 THE STAR HAS MORE THAN THREE TIMES AS MANY REGULAR SUBSCRIGERS and MORE THAN FIVE TIMES AS MANY REGULAR READERS AS ANY OTHER DAILY PAPER IN WASHINGTON. It ts de- Mvered regularly by careful carriers a8 the HOMES OF THE PEOPLE, AFTER THE BUSTLE AND WORRY OF THE SAY ARE OVER, and it is thus read leisurely and thoroughly by EVERY MEMBER OF THE FAMILY. They know that it prints all the news, and has only the interests of the people of the District in view, with no partisan * measures to advocate, and no private schemes to forward. They know it, in short, tobe THE PEOPLE’S PAPER, and nothingelse. Asan ADVERTISING MEDIUM it is, therefore, ABSO- | LUTELY WITHOUT A RIVAL. It is | in fact worth more as a means of reach- ing the public THAN ALL THE | OTHER DAILY PAPERS IN THE CITY TOGETHER, °| Furthermore, in proportion to the re- turns it gives its patrons, ITS ADVER- TISING RATES ARE THE CHEAPES® IN THE CITY. | In conclusion, the public should bear | im mind this one significant fact: THE | STAR does not rely upon empty boasts toimpress the public. ITS CIRCULA. TION IS SWORN TO; its PRESS- ROOM IS OPEN TO THE PUBLIOQ; nee, | 0nd Me BOOKS MAY BE INSPECTED | by any one having an interest in their examination. These are CRUCIAL TESTS, which few papers invite, and which those that boast most are least able to stand. —o:— PF The esteem in which THE STAR is held by the reading and advertising | public is conclusively shown Dy the fig: nile | Wres given below. In the first six months of each of the five years named the average daily cir= ulation of the paper was:
