In the Circuit Court, Judge Montgomery, to- day the case of Maj. George A. Armes against Senator J. Donaid Cameron was taken up. This is an action to recover €2.850 for commissions on the sale of the house and furniture of defendant to Hon. D. Morgan, in 1885, for €95,000. The plaintiff claimed that this was the usual commission in such cases and declined to receive # smaller amount as his commission. Messrs, Willoughby and A. Birney appear for the plaintiff and Messrs, W. A. Cook and Enoch Totten for defendant, cesta ee POLICE PROMOTIONS. Civil Service Reform Rules to Govern— Applicants to Undergo Examination. The police department has adopted civil service reform rules and hereafter, it is said, j promotion will be made according to merit and uot on account of influence, Capt. Austin and Licuts. Hollinberger and Guy have been desig- nated as examining commissioners for the de- partment. This action was brought about by the dismissal of the two police sergeants yes- terday. The applicants for promotion were so bumerous that the major could not fiad the time to fully inquire into and decide as to the merits ofeach. Under the order issued by Maj. Moore all policemen of the second class are permitted to put in their applications for these promotions and undergo an examination !such as the commissioners may determine upon. They have not yet decided what sort of an examination they will hoid, although it is thought that the applicanis will be required to write answers to a set of questionsto test their knowledge of the duties of @ policeman. Under the law only the officers of the second class are eligible, as the law requires protuo- tions to be made from the next lower class, The promotions of two officers of this class and of two acting sergeants will create two vacancios in the second or 390 class, to which two men of the first or $75 class will be eligible. ee Death of Mrs. Lucy L. Arnold. Mrs. Lucy L, Arnold, the sister of Mrs. Geo. B. Williams, died this morning about 1 o'clock after along and painful illness, Mrs. Arnold was born in Alabama, but was a resident for many years of California, She was the widow of John Arnold, one of the principal business men of the Pacitic coast. During her many visits to Washizgton.the past few years she had become endeared to a large circle of acquaintances here, who will learn of her death with sincere yor- row. The body will be sent to California for interment. ———— Fast Driving. ‘To the Editor of THe EVENING Stan: It seems to be almost impossible to enforce the law against fast driving in this city; the law breakers outnumber the policemen fifty to one, and their chances of outrunning them are illimitable. Still, this is no reason why the pedestrians should be entirely given over to the merey of every butcher boy. The Commis- sioners should make and enforce an order pro- hibiting the driving of an animal around acor- ner ata gait faster than a walk, and while it is not practicable to make a driver slow down to a walk at every crossing of the road he is on, such being not inguishable from the re- mainder of the road on our —* pavements, these should and could be clearly defined by laying them in blue stone, the edges beveled to prevent jarring the vehicle and slightly ed to secure dry footing; and any driver who should come in contact with a pedestrian on such crossing should be held guilty of as- sault, The man who wanders all over the street or crosses it any where else than the defined crossing should be held as doing it at his own peril and needs no_ protection by the law. While this would not abolish all colli- sions it would prevent the large majority, since most persons are run over either at street cor- ners or while crossing the streets. As for chil- dren playing in the carriage way, parents who allow their children to do so should be per- mitted full liberty of the law to run the risk. It is not the business of the public. afoot or in a wagon, to mind other people's children, i oS To Explore the Great Falls Region. The National Geographical Society has ar- ranged for an excursion on Wednesday, the 21st instant, to the Great Falls of the Potomac, The pian is to take coaches, opposite the Cosmos Club, at 9a.m., and follow the Conduit road. reaching Great Falls between 11:30 a.m, and noon.

From this point members of the party will take boats over the river to get a view of the falls from the Vir- [ ginia side. Returning. the coaches will start at 5 p.m., reaching thiscity by 8 o'clock. In case of rain the excursion will be postponed and notice will be given in Tue Sax. Death of Mrs. K. B. Stocking. Mrs. Emily Chapman Stocking, wife of Mr. E. B. Stocking, a weil-known resident of Capi- tol Hill, died last evening at her home, 205 A street southeast. after an illness of a few days. Mrs. Stocking, who was an estimable wife and mother, had a large circle of friends in the city, by whom her death will be sincerely re- gretted. She leaves two little daughters. Funeral services will be held at the residence at 3 o'clock tomorrow. and the remains will be taken to Syracuse, for burial, A Pool Table for a Truck Company. Last Monday Track A Company of the fire department was presented with a handsome pool table, The presentation address was delivered by Mr. Pliny M. Hough of the Co- ational Bank.

The lecture of Mr. Thomas Wilson at the National Museum this evening will be a con- tinuation of his course commenced last Tues- day. His subjeet will be ancient industries, charms and amulets. He will describe these as they were represented at the French expo- vition, and it is done m the hope that it will better prepare our peopie to make a tine dis- play in similar regards at the Chieago exposi- tion. He will show the great reception hail of the palace of Artaxerxes, which was discov- ered and excavated by Monsieur and Madame Dieulafoy, and a reproduction of one of the movable thrones of the kings of Assyria.

A Better Building Required and Better Pay for the Judge. “Washington is badly in need of a new Police Court building,” said a lawyer to a Sranre- | porter this morning. ‘That court,” he con- ! tinued, the only government institution in | the city that pays its own expenses and turns over profits to Uncle Sam, According to the reports the court clears something like 25,000 a year, and yet the accommodations are poorer than the magistrates’ courts in country towns. The present Police Court building is totally uwfit for occupancy and the cells are so badly arranged that all the impure air and stench from them passes up the corri- dor and through the court room, making it very unhealthy for the judge and others in court,” A POOBLY PAID JUDGE. “The work of the Police Court,” continued the attorney who practices before it, ‘is heavy andmuch harder than the work in the upper courts. The judge has to decide many knotty legal questions in # day that the judges in tha other courts have many days to consider before delivering an opinion, and yet he gets but lit- tle over half the salary that the other judges get. Idon'tsee why the police judge's salary isnot increased. When the salary was fixed at the present figure there were not so many cases to try. The city was not nearly as large as it is now and there were not near so many policemen to arrest persons, The labors of the Police Court are much harder than those of the other courts and there is no reason why the salary of the police judge should be much lower than that otf the other judges.” —_ PERHAPS BURIED ALIVE, Belief That a Supposed Corpse Was In- sensible Only Because of a Fit. Orin H. Reynolds, a young man hving at Scranton, Pa., was found dead in bed Sunday morning and Tuesday his body was taken to Binghamton, N.Y., for burial. To add to the horror of his sudden death the report is cur- rent that he was alive when placed in the coftin and consigned to the tomb, and that his sup- posed death was only the insensibility pro- | duced by an epileptic fit, to which he was sub- ject. At the time the faneral service was held the life-like appearance oi the corpse and the fact that the cheeks and forehead were flushed and that the lite color was visible in the backs of the hands was a matter of remark by sev- jeralin attendance, as well as the officiating clergyman, Rev. D. M. Stearns, of the Re- formed Episeopal Church. Undertaker Raub, who has charge of the body, holds that the death of Reynolds was announced by two phy- sicians and that the flushing and warmth of the body was due to the reactionary process of the embalming duid and that there was no doubt of the man being dead when buried. This, however, dues not dissuade the anxious ones of their suspicions in the case, and it is under- stood that they will at once proceed to an in- vestigation. —_—__sa0—____—_~ THE BENTLEYSVILLE MURDER. AColored Man Arrested on Suspicion of the Crime, The triple murder at Bentleysville, Pa, is still a mystery. Many theories are being ad- vanced as to the probable motive of the horri- ble deed. Among these is thata relative of the Crouches murdered them in bopes of obtain- ing the estate, which is valued at from $10,000 to $25,000. Another theory is that a colored man, who was seen in the vicinity, committed the murder for robbery. A dispatch to the sheriff of Washington county states that a man answering the description of this man has been arrested at Beaver Falls, —-— - eee —___ THE HOOSIER POET SUED, Manager Walker Wants Damages ‘for Mr. Riley’s Change of Base. The trouble which caused a break between Bill Nye and James Whitcomb Riley a few months ago has been revived by filing a suit at Indian- apolis against Riley by Amos J. Walker, his for- mer manager, who demands damages to the amount of $1,000 from Riley. Under the cou- truct between Riley and Nye the former re- ceived $60 for each performance, one-third of which was to be paid to Walker, who was also given a salary of 250 a week for’ management. Riley’s refusal to continue the partnership threw walker out of employment, and for this he demends money from the Hoosier poet. coe A BRIDE OF A DAY. A Pittsburg Girl Married While Dying from Poison Self-Administered. Pittsbure Special to Philadelphia Press, Miss Helen Brecht was married Wednesday at Pittsburg to Charles W. Eckert, Yesterday she died. The knot was tied while the young woman lay in agony upon what was her death- bed. She was but twenty years of age. Tues- day evening her parents invited « party of friends to their house to rejoice over the ap- proaching event. Before daylight tho parents of the prospective bride were summoned to her chamber, where they found her writhing in pain and almost exhausted. She vomited and became violently insane. Dr. Cameron. who was called in, suspected poisoning, but upon inquiry the young woman stoutly de- nied having taken anything. As the hour set for the wedding approached a priest was called in and the twain were made one. After the ceremony Miss Brecht grew steadily worse until morning, when she died—the bride of a day. | The husband says she was the victita of cholera morbus, caused by drinking a glass of cold beer while she was overheated, ‘The fact leaked out that Miss Brecht loved an- other young man more tenderly than Mr.Eckert. Eckert is well-to-do, however, and the young woman's parents looked with favor on his suit and had urged the marriage. To her favorite Miss Brecht, on Saturday last, presented a gold Ting as a farewell token, with the remark that she was about to wed against her will. ‘Those circumstances, taken with the reluctance of Dr. Cameron, the attending physician,. give color to the suspicion of self-destruction. —— oo —— si F SHARP.

Adonis Dixey, Col, Miles and Richard Car- roll visited the police headquarters yesterday to test on a wager of wiae Mr. Dixcy’s reputa- tion of being able to release himself in a trice from any handcuffs known to mechanical skill, Col. Phil Deitsch, the famous captain of Cin- cinnati’s finest, was not in his office, but Chief of Detectives Larry Hazen, the gray-haired “Black Duke,” was, and politely undertook to secure the comedian in bandeuffs that he'd have trouble in changing. ‘Crime and Misery” reporters, detectives and others gathered around aud intense interest was felt in the result, Famous criminals there had been, according to Colouel Hazen, whose hands were so small and the bones thereof so pliable that they could slip out of almowt any handcuffs, but that Dixey, with his large well-shaped hands, could get out of the “standard” pair the veteran detective proceeded to lock closely upon hin —as close as we ever put them on,” he said—Colonel Hazen did not believe. When he was pro- nounced secure Dixey stepped into a telephone box, and while his back could be seen through the glass door, took off the handeuffs, and within a minute anda half came out dangling them triumphantly on his forefinger.

In one es- tablishment he removed three pairs of the very latest and improved “bracelets” in four min- utes and a half. —~-———@0———____— Acolored woman named Winnie Wilson, at New Berne, N.C., fell dead Wednesday while thrashing her little boy.

Into this wall the children of the neigh- berhood dug in an endeavor to make them- selves small houses, They resumed their oc- cupation entirely ignorant of the fact that the rain had loosened the clay.
