CHARLES BOEHMANN, A TWELVE-FEAB-OLD BOY, KILLED BY 4 PARLOR RIFLE IN THE HANDS OF Groce George W. Gates, a marine, was yesterday sent to jail until the grand jury can investigate * charge of murder against him. It is alleged that he killed Charles Boehmann Saturday afternoon by shooting him with a parlor rifle in the rear of the house where Gates’ family reside, on Georgia avenue between 12th and 13th streets southeast, The prisoner is eigh- teen years old and has been a member of the marine corps about two years, He expected to go to sea in about s month's time, He has been permittted to leave the barracks Satur- day and Sunday afternoons of each week and on these occasions he usually spent some time athis home, There is another young man, one of George’s companions in the marine corps, who is not fortunate enough to ha‘ home in this city. He owns the rifle caused Charlie hmann’s death, Gates had been keeping the riffe at his house for his com- panion, who permitted him to use it, THE FATAL SHOOTING. Saturday afternoon the prisoner and de- ceased, Charles Carl and Wm. Clark were in the yard of the house and passed yy an hour shooting ata target. Some of the boys were good marksmen and the t was rendered useless, They hadsome bullets left and to use them up a tin can was placed on the fence post and the boys took turns in shooting at it Willie Boehmann, who was only twelve years old, knocked the can off the post, laid down the rifle and started to place the can in tion Alter doing so he got on the fence and wi there broke some branches off a peach tree in the yard. This seemed to je Gates, and after ordering the boy away he raised the rifle and the fatal shot was fired. The other boys in the yard screamed for as- sistance when they saw Willie fall, and Gates’ mother came out and picked up the dying boy. While the boys were runningin all direc- tions for physicians the little fellow died and Mrs. Gates fainted. When the physicians ar- rived at the house their services were not needed. The bullet had entered the carotid artery, Passed ugh the windpipe and lodged near the shoulder. From the location of the ball it must have been sent from the weapon with considerable force. THE INQUEST. Coroner Patterson heid an inquest at the un- dertaking establishment of Mr. Mitchell on Capitol Hill at noon yesterday and made a thorough examination of the case. The two boys, Clark and Carl, were called as witnesses, Their evidence was that Boehmann had peen soning up the can for Gates. The last time he put the can in position and while standing on the fence broke some blossoms from a peach tree. This so incensed Gates that he ordered Boehmann out of the yard. Gates then raised the rifle and pointed it at Boeh- mann, The latter said: “Look out, George, that mignt go off.” Hardly had the words fallen from his lips when down went the trigger and he fell to the ground. The prisoner was sworn in his own behalf and he told precisely the same story as was told by the other witnesses and added how he came to fire the fatal shot. Before raisi the rifle to point at Boehmann he said he thought he put the hammer down so that the weapon could not be discharged. The jury thought from the cireumstances at- tending the shooting that the case needed a pierce Param examination and held Gates re- sponsible for the killing. On the coroner's commitment he was sent to jail, ——— THE EASTERN DISPENSARY The Board of Directors Propose to Establish an Emergency Hospital.

At the session of the Washington conference of the Methodist Episcopal church, colored, at Frederick Saturday, Rev. W. P. Ryder, presid- ing elder of Washington district, reported his churches generally to be in # very flourishing condition. There are twenty-nine appoint- ments in the district, with » membership of 13,000, including probationers, During the year there were 1,250 accessions to the church and the missionary collections were far in ad- yance of last year. A committee, consisting of P. G. Walker, A. H. Robinson, N, M. Carroll, E. W. T. Peck and L. L. Thomas, was appointed to prepare @ history of the conference from the time of its organization, twenty-seven years ago. It was decided by a vote of 96 to 6 not to concur in the proposition submitted by the general conference of 1888 to amend the discipline 80 as to not allow of more than oi ministerial representative in the general co: ference for every fourteen members of an an- nua conference, nor of & less number than one for every forty-five, norof a greater number of lay delegates than there may be ministerial delegates at the same annual conference, eee phone Charges. To the Editor of Tux Evex1ne Stan: A bill has been introduced into Congress by Mr. Dorsey of Nebraska to regulate charges of telephone service furnished to the government, making the rate $20 per year. As the citizens of the District of Columbia are paying a higher rate for telephone service than is generally charged elsewhere—from $80 to $100 0 perdin- num—is it anything more than an act of justice to the le here, who cannot protect them- selves, to protect them from this monopoly? The telephone company have a monopoly which shuts out competition and are gran! 2 val- uable franchise in the use of the streets, Why should not the ple have the same protec- tion against exorbitant rates? If @20 per year is a fair rate for the government to pay for the service, why should the people be com pay four or five times as much for same service?

Suggested by Washington in His Will it is Yet to be Established. An interesting article in a recent issue of America, a weekly journal published in Chi- cago, gives s sketch of the project which Pres- ident We cherished of founding a national university in this city. In his will Washington made a bequest of fifty shares of stock of the Potomac company. This company became bankrupt and the and Ohio canal company succeeded to its rights and privileges. Washington's idea in regard to the proposed university was explained in his will, He wished to have American youth educated in this country rather than in Europe, where they were apt to imbibe notions un- friendly to a republican system of government. “Although Washington's project of anational unit was never catried out,” says the writer, ‘there is another national tation the ion of which we owe to him—the West Point military 4 “The ofa ‘itary academy was Plan lees nrest?’ Otnors, petiape tooo den ers, 80 serving, have won a lasting renown as founders i Pyrite Harvard, Yale, Cornell, Girard le to establish institutions of learn- the bequest but the reasons for it.

Smithson, a son of the Duke of Northumberland. This sum was given to establish at Washi an ‘institution for the diffusion of knowledge in men,’ the Smithsonian Institution, thus founded, was organized and went into operation. It has al- ready taken high rank among educational es- tablishments, In the first investments of the funds a considerable loss was sustained. By act of Congress this loss was replaced. The setting sun daily throws the dow of the Washington monument over the Smithsonian Institution. But where is the Washington uni- versity? Are the obligations of these United States to their first President less than to the son of an English duke? Ought Smithson’s will be held sacred while Washington's is for- gotten?

The Lease of the Canal Approved by Citizens—Rich Gold Finds. Correspondence of Tax verre Stan Rockvitre, March 15. The news of the passage of the bill leasing the Chesapeake and Ohio canal to the Wash- ington and Oumberland railroad company was received here with feelings of pleasure, as it was also in that portion of the county border- ing on the big ditch. Dr. Wooton, senator from thiscounty, was here yesterday and made an earnest effort to explain his vote, which was against the bill, Messra, Kilgour, Laird and Clements of the house of delegates were here also, and appeared tobe proud of the action they had taken, Mr. Jos, Baker, president of the national bank of this place, who has been appointed one of the receivers and who is to in- spect the destruction created along the line of 1% canal on the division assigned him, will, say men who have been along the line, find between Monocacy and Georgetown por- tions of the canal entirely filled up and upon which hay has been cut this summer. From Great Falls to Georgetown he will find great openings in the walls of the canal leading to the river, which it will take thousands of dollars to répair. The idea has been advanced in this section that a railroad cannot be built upon this line without being exposed to the usual freshets of the Potomac, but Col. Randolph, one of the best engineers in the employ of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad, has given it as his opinion that a road can be constructed along this line without any fear of sey from floods by cutting away the dams on the Potomac which are used as feeders for the canal, Persons here today from the district lying along the canal are much pleased with the prospects of a railroad, A negro who was sent here and committed to fm on acharge of breaking into a store at ickerson's Station and who escaped from jail by means of a ladder which was constructed by 8 white man charged with horse stealing made his escape last week and was afterward recap- tured at Dickerson’s Station.

Mrs, Cleveland Reveals Some of the Secrets of Their Courtship. From a New York Letter, Tam able to give some inside information about ex-President Cleveland’s romance, At the time of the wedding the mouths of the President and his wife were as tight as that of a clam concerning their love affair. None of their friends knéw much about their courtship, and they went on the principle of the great Ger- man proverb that ‘‘speech is silver, but silence is golden.” The wedding is still gossiped about here, and the women pronounce it a love match, while the men invariably take the ground that the White House had a good deal to do with Mrs, Cleveland’s acceptance. It seoms the men are somewhat in the right, anda who lately returned from a wedding trip to the continent gives one of my friends a conversation which she had with Mrs. Cleve- land not long ago. The story as it comes to me 18 quite spicy and I do not vouch that the re- rt of the talk is verbatim. Igive it as I hear it. ‘The lady said: “T met Cleveland shortly after I landed in New York and one of the first questions she asked me was to pray tell her how long I was engaged before I was married. “Tanewered her and told her the story of onr courtship. She listened with interest and when I was I concluded that I would something from her in return, I asked: “ ‘Mrs, Clevel T have seen a great many stories about your and the most that marriage I have seen have been contradicted by you and your friends, Ihave told you my story and now I want you to tell me yours, How long were you lm -e to the President before you were married?” “Mrs. Cleveland laughed and blushed and * ¢ THE EVENING 8TAR: WASHINGTON, D.C., MONDAY, MARCH 1 di BASE BALL INS AND OUTS, What is Being Talked About for the Coming Season.

There is nothing to show that there will not bes club tos cer- tainty and there are strong evidences to prove that the league is.making 3 effort to reduce the playing circuit to eight clubs, which means, as far as Washington is concerned, the dropping of this city from that organisation. John B, Day, it is reported, is trying to induce ® sufficient number of his friends to agree to the holding of an extra meeting of the league to farther discuss the matter, and this would show that the New York man has found some sort of ® combination in the west that may solve the difficulty. He is doing his best to this end, and if b ‘ashington league club succeeds the will soon be a thing of the In deciding the Hallman i binding that was technicaily deficient in not designating the terms on which the player was to for the second season.

Tut, tut, Mike! A player should not kick the umpire!

M. de Freycinet has had but little difficulty in forming his new cabinet, being assured on Saturday of the collaboration of M. Constans and M. Bourgeois as ministers of the interior and public instruction. ‘De Freycinet had in- terviews yesterday with Rouvier, Ribot, De- ville, Brisson, Jules Roche and Yves Guyot. The new cabinet is composed as follows: Pres- ident of the council and minister of war, M. de Freycinet; minister of foreign affairs, M. Ribot; minister of the interior, M.

Mi-careme has brought its usual harvest of crime in Paris, Marie Lavielle, a laundress, went to a carnival ball and did not return until 4o’clock in the morning. Her husband at- tacked her with a revolver, firing three shots, one of which, however, took effect in the breast of an innocent woman named Picard. ‘A government employe, after indulging in « mi-careme dinner, gave his mistress, Marie Bebut, a beverage containing arsenic, He then fired twice at the woman, went into the kitchen, swallowed poison himself and blew off the top of his head with the remaining shot in the revolver. A third tragedy was that in which Mr, Mayer and nis wife were the actors, As the couple were returning from a ball Madam Mayer assaulted her husband and poured hot burning oil over him. The poor man, all over fire, rushed upstairs to the apart- ments of # police inspector. The wife followed him, revolver in hand, and succeeded in lodg- ing six bullets in bis back. Returning to her peal she fired five bullets into her own reas Lord Churchill’s Protest. Lord Randolph Churchill, publishing his original protest against the Parnell commission bill, says he fails to see how this and his recent speech can be construed as disloyalty to the unionist party. It seems to him that the charge of disloyalty might be more forcibly urged against those who, in spite of every warning, forced upon parliament a measure which, by its history and results, obviously dealt a heavy blow to the cause and party of the union. He explains that when he sent his protest the com- mission bili was in embryo and the government contemplated abandoning it or at least with- drawing it if it led to a protracted debate. The chief objections urged by Lord Randolph in his protest were as follows: “In the first place the offer of the commission, to a large extent, recognized the wisdom of the accused in avoid- ing @ trial by jary. In the second place it was unprecedented and, in the third piace, unwise and illegal to engage judges in political con- flict, which was certain to result in a loss of re- spect.” Ina fourth objection Lord Randolph ealt with the difficulties, unconstitutionality and @selessness of the tribunal, ——— eee Executive Session Secret and the Cur. From the Lounger. One day on the Capitol terrace a curious-look- ing Object, whose label did not at all correspond with ite appearance, was wandering aimlessly about when it encountered a small and mangy cur whose ribs seemed in imminent danger of coming through the skin, “Hello,” said the curious-looking Object, with an air that somehow gave forth a faint an faraway suggestion of Senatorial Dignity, “you're about the most miserable and forlorn dog I’ve met yet, You look as if you had been living on your own fleas for the last century, Who keeps you, anyway?” “Keeps me?” answered the miserable cur in- terrogatively. ‘Why, I keep myself after a fashion. And now,” continued the dog, with a gleam of cold but’ polite irony in his eye (for e had once been the favorite of one of the First Families of Anacostia), ‘‘will you permit me to ask who keeps you?” “Me?” responded the curious-looking Ob- ject, with some embarrassment, “Oh, weil, the fact is, no one at all keeps me, I’m an Execu- tive Session Secret.” Moral.—See Timothy, x:16, 9 Victorla’s Daughter to See the Pope.
