At the regular montily mecting of the Na- tional Fencibles this week the disposition of the prize money will come up for discussion, There are many schemes advanced.

Taveree’s Save of fine dwelling house, corner 17th and O streets northwest, tomorrow after- moon at 5o’clock. A fine chance to obtain a Tesidence in the northwest, steadfast and protracted efforts to save the streets of the national capital from being con- verted into human slaughter pens and to rescue its beautiful parks from the grip of grasping corporations, you deserve the recognition and commendation of every citizen and sojourner im Washington, high or low, rich or poor, because the steam Juggernaut which hurtles through and across its streets and avenues is “no respecter of per: ;’ Men, women and children fail before its irresistible rush, and the fate of one today may be that of another to- morrow. ‘To the writer, a cosmopolitan without local interests to blind’ or warp his judgment, it is simply conceivable that a population of nearly a quarter of a million can submit any longer to this remediable “terror by night and destruction by day.” It is still a greater wonder that the Senators and Representatives of the nation should be willing to tolerate, for a single day, the lawless and defiant occupation of the public streets and parks within pistol shot of their beautiful Capitol by hundreds of engines vomiting smoke and cinder which are wafted by every breeze and with the increasing clang of bells aud shricks of whistles into their very legislative halls. Some one in Congress asked the other day whether it was desired to preserve Washington as acity of parks. The answer should have boldly been yes—a city of beauty, of restful- ness, of repose, where ature and art together may open up thefr treasures to the lofty and the lowly ‘without mon nd without price.” Not one of jarring machinery and overhanging grime and smoke, buf one fit to be the Mecca of the nation, which every citizen from the lakes to the gulf and from the Atlantic to the Pacific will long to visit. and when he shall have done so will kindle bis pride and quicken his patriotism; one city at least in our vast empire not ‘preyed upon by the ghouls of corruption and greed and which will prove Yo intelligent foreigners that Americans can goveru a municipality without the domination of corruption or fraud, How absurd the contention that the existing condi- tion of the railways is essential to the proper transit of north and south trade! That trade can be conducted without being brought into the heart of the city, as if to rest on its weary way? Let the two rival companies build a bridge with a few miles of connecting railway either to the entrance east or west of Washing- ton to serve this through traftie and the city can be spared. They can better afford to do that than the nation can afford to sacritice the beauty and safety of the capital to their insen- sate greed, In all probability, as this controversy is de- cided now, it will remain, not for five or ten years but for generations, As year follow year the grib ot existing nuisances Will be stre@gth- ened; the northern, eastern and southern popu- lations and suburbs will be more and more se- gregated, the slaughter pens will ran with fuller blood, aud when im the majesty of outraged humanity the people insist upon a change in tones that must be heeded, it will cost thou- sauds of dollars to effect that which can now be done for tens. In the meantime, the heirs of some who have ceded lands to the government for public purposes are looking into the ques- tion of legaily recovering such lauds which, given for a specific object, have been diverted to private corporations for private ends.

Three Columbia men were the next to pass the line, Baich. Mount and Ander- sop, in 1.28, 1.30.15 and 1.32 respectively.

Mrs. Agnes Shanley was arrested Saturday night on a warrant for profanity, and being un- able to borrow 25 to leav» as collateral she was locked up at the fifth precinct station on Capi- tol Hill. where she died suddenly last night. Mrs, Shan.cy wasa resident of the section known as “Tidewater,” on New Jersey avenue southeast, She lived at No, 1259, It is not an uncommon thing for the residents in that vicinity to swear out warrants for each other for alleged violations of District ordinances, the result of neighborhood and family quarrels and liquor drinking. The warrants are usually obtained so that the arrest will be made on Saturday to have the victim locked up over Sunday in a police cell. This was so in the case of Mra, Shanley, against whom Mary Newman. swore out a warrant for profanity. UNDER THE INFLUENCE. OF LIQUOR, Saturday night when Policeman Dyer arrested Mrs. Shanley she was under the influence of liquor. Although she had never been locked up ‘before the officers say she took her punishment without complaint and soon fell asleep on the iron bench. Yesterday morning one of her children brought her breakfast to her and later in the day her dinner arrived, She did not speak about getting out, but conversed with her children as though she was in her own house at the dinner table. As night approached she grew restless and wanted to get out. About 8 o'clock her son Johnnie arrived with her supper, and although still comfortable she told him to go to see-Mr. Cotton and get 85 col- lateral from him. DEATH BELEASES THE PRISONER. The little boy went off in search of Mr. Cot- ton and returned about an hour later to deposit the collateral, When Station Keeper Mitchell went to the cell door the woman was stretched at full length on the bench. he station keeper called to her, but she did not answer, and opening the door he diseovered that no collateral was necessary for her release, as death bad stepped in and she had been called to appear beture a higher court. Her death must have been without pain, for the station keeper, who was only a few fect from the cell room ail the time, didnot even hear her groan. The deceased was nearly fifty years old and was the wife of Patrick Shanle brick layer, Her body was removed to the morgue last night and the coroner was notified. Coroner Patterson investigated the case to- day und gave a certificate of death from ox- cessive heat and heart failure.

BIGGEST IN THE WORLD. The Great Bridge to Connect New York and Jersey City. From the New York World, June 29. The House bill to incorporate the North River Bridge Company, which passed the United States Senate yesterday, is a step toward the connection of New York city and Jersey City with the biggest span ever erected. The House bill authorized the construction of a bridge across the Hudson river and provided for the regniation of commerce over such bridge be- tween the states of New York and New Jersey and for the establishment over it of a military and post road. According to the plan of Mr. Lindenthal, the engineer, the span will be 3,000 feet in length and swing at least 155 feet above tide water. ‘The towers at either side will be 500 fect in height, or almost as high as the Washington monument. ‘The masonry required for each of these towers alone will far exceed that in the largest of the Egyptian pyramids, ‘Lhe Broo! lyn bridge cables are tifteen inches in diam- eter. In the \ yesh bridge over the Hudson the cables will be four feet in diameter. The bridge will have a capacity for ten railway tracks across it, with proportionate accommo- dation for foot pamongers and wagons, ‘The estimated cost of the bridge proper, in- cluding towers, cables and anchorages, is esti- mated at $15,000,000; approaches of ‘stone and irou and appurtenances, $11,000,000; incident- als, $14,000, Twenty-seven Wounded. The Missouri Pacific passenger train was wrecked five miles from Nevada, Mo., at 5 o'clock Saturday afternoon & the spreading of the rails on a sharpcurve. ‘Three of the coaches were precipitated down an embank- ment and two people fatally and twenty-seven more or jess dangerously hurt, A special bear- ing surgeons went to their relief.

Their Owners Have a Set-to and Are Fined Five Dollars Each. Saturday afternoon in the Police Court sev- erel cases involving two defendants and the same number of dogs were tried. The defend- ants were Charles E. Barber and Samuel Lloyd. The former isa lawyer and his dog is named “Ceser.” Lloyd runs a cider mill on 7th street and ownsa dog named “Duke.” The dogs have engaged in more than one conflict, and Barber’s dog has figuredin the Police Court on more than occasion. When the cases of affray aud assault against the owners of the dogs were called to Judge Miller's attention he said he was tired of having these dogs engage the time of the court so often, and if it did not soon cease he would inflict penalties that would stop it, “But my client was not at fault,” interrupted one of the lawyers. “I did not say who was at fault,” said the court, but I repeat that if this thing 1s kept up much longer the ax is going to fall heavily.” Jt appeared in evidence that Lloyd's dog was in front of his master's cider mill when Bar- ber's dog came along. Then there was a fight. Som d “Sick him, Duke,” and another said . Cesar.” The affair happening, as it did, on 7th street, attracted @ large crowd of people, who were not ouly treated to a dog fight, but also to a pugilistie encounter be- tween the owners of the animals, A number of spectators were summoned as Witnesses, but they were better able to de- scribe the dog fight than they were to tell of the fight between the men, Judge Miller set- tled the matter by fining each of the defend- ants $5 and said he hoped this would be the jast heard in court of the fighting dogs, ———— No Confederate Flags This Time.

He replied: ‘Ido not consider Hood's Sarsa- parilla a patent medicine, It should be classed among standard preparations ior its real worth.’ I followed Dik aivice and have taken eight bottles of Hood's Sarsaparilla, with what keems to me a marvelous re- sult, Icall myself well aguin.
