To the Editor of Tux Evewine Stan: Please raise your potential voice against the destruction of the beautiful shade trees on the north side of Pennsylvania avenue between 25th and 26th streets. It is evidently done to throw into bolder relief the new buildings being there constructed, byt is none the less &n outrage on the public Xn an act of van- dalism which mars the symmetry of our street arking and tends to destroy one of the most jovely as well as health-giving attractions of our lovely ci‘y. <3 een hate The Tournament at the Grange Camp. ‘The tournament was the principal event st the Grange camp yesterday.

The Norris Peters’ Photographic Company bas recently made a voluntary change in the working hours of its employes so that their working day is now nine hours. The employes are naturally very much gratified at this action on the part of the company and @ committee consisting of Adolph Levy and Lewis B. Taylor was in- structed to forward a letter of thanks in their mame to Messrs. Eugene Peters, Henry V. Parsell and Daniel Fraser, the members of the firm. This has been done in a letser that ex- presses their appreciation at the trouble and *Zpense to the company that this action in- volves and their gratitude for the interest the ‘ompany takes in its employes’ welfare. ————— The Block Case Closed. The Commissioners yesterday afternoon de- Bied the request of Mr. Cook to order the po- lice triel board to reopen the case of Officer Sigmund J.

The Atiantic Association procession moved on yesterday with one of its members—Wash- ington—standing still. According to the agree- ment with the Hartford club the scheduled games were skipped for the present, pending Manager Sullivan's efforts to get a new team together. Two of the old nine have already gone with other clubs. Hill yesterday signed @ Baltimore contract and Whistler went to Phil- adelpbia to talk with Manager Mutrie about the terms of a New York contract. He will probably become a Giant. The other ex-Sena- tors have less chance than these two men, al- though Bader, Riddle, Phillips and Bird ought to stand a good show in the chase. Gleason is going to stand by the old ship until her deck is under water and will aid Sullivan in his at- tempt to bring another team together. With two such veterans spending their best efforts on such aline some sort of results ought to follow in a very few days. GAMES PLAYED, Yesterday Baltimore squeezed Newark for a game by the score of 6 to 3. The battery points were occupied by German and Townsend and Serad, Murphy and; Childs.

Mr. Dumont, who prosecutes in the Police Court on behalf of the District, has found law under which persons can be prosecuted for walking on the public parks as well as for tres- passing on the parks in front of houses. The law was passed in 1873, one year after the pas- sage of the act for the protection of the private parks, and a suitable penalty is provided. The park watchmen will again assert their authority and arrest persons the same as they did before it was thought that there was no law. John Hughes, an old veteran, was before Judge Mills this morning for being on the grass in Seaton Park. He was also charged with being an habitual drunkard, and he plead guilty to both charges. Mr. Dumont thought that one day's acquaint- ance with adrunken man was hardly enough to sustain a chargo of habitual drunkenness, although he pleads guilty; but Hughes evi- dently wanted to go down and the judge ac- commodated him with a 90 days’ sentence. ——<—<—<—<—_—_ SAVED FROM DEATH. How a Young Man’s Suicidal Plans Were Frustrated. “If I didn’t succeed this time I will the next,” said William Pixton after Dr. Ellyson of the Emergency Hospital had saved him from the grave. Pixton is about twenty-five years old, but he is tired of life. Yesterday after- noon about 5 o'clock he took a dose of tincture of digitalis after Writing a farewell letter to his mother. He would no doubt have soon passed out of the world had not the letter been deliv- ered to Mr. Beveridge of the firm of Webb & Beveridge, in whose store Pixton was employed asclerk. The young man inclosed the letter in an envelope. which he addressed to Mr. Bevenidge, and left it with the book keeper to band to Mr. Beveridge when he returned. The letter was delivered soon afterward and excitetl Mr. Beveridge’s suspicion. He insti- tuted search for Pixton, whom he found lying in the cellar. He was unconscious at the time and would doubtless have died in a short time had he been allowed to remain there, but Mr. Beveridge had him removed to the Emergency Hospital, where Dr. Ellyson succeeded in re- storing him to consciousness. It was then that he made use of the remark above quoted. The young man’s parents were notified of what had ‘occurred to their son, and they were soon in the hospital at his bedside. ‘The letter was delivered to the distressed mother, but she refused to divulge its contents. About 10 o'clock the patient had sufficiently recovered to walk from the hospital with as- sistance, and he was removed to his home on Columbia Heights. The cause of Pixton's act is said to be ill healt). He has been sick and haunted with the fear of an early death. ———— The Union Veterans’ Union.

A Rallroad Engineer Not Held Respon- sible for the Holding of His Train. Charles Shelton, an engineer on the Balti- more and Ohio railroad, was before Judge Mills in the Pohee Court this morning charged with obstructing the crossing at H street north- east about a week ago. Witnesses were called to tell of the alleged obstruction at the crose- ing mentioned. They testified that the cross- ing was obstructed between ten and fif- teen minutes and that several street cars and herdics were stopped on either side of the train. One witness said that when s man called to one of the train men he responded: “The people can go to h——.” There was no proof that the defendant had any connection with the train, and not being represented by counsel he wai sworn in his own behalf when the proof had failed to hold him responsible. He admitted that he was the engineer on the engine attached to the train, but he said that ad no authority to move it without a signal from the conductor, who had full charge of the train. The court held that the engineer under the circumstances was not liable and the case was dismissed. If any one was liable, the court said, it was the conductor. ee ALEXANDRIA. Reported for Tae Eventyg Stag? City Scuoot Boarp.—The city school board met last night and, in the absence of the presi- dent, Trustee John T. Sweeney presided, ten trustees with the superintendent and clerk being present. ‘The present janitors, Mr. Penn and Mr. Griffen, of is white schools were re- elected, as was Charles Brown of Seaton colored school building, but Wm. Fortune was chosen janitor of Hallowell colored school building vice Sexton Wright, The board determmed to make no change in the books used in the schools except to adopt Holmes’ Revised Reader and Speiler so far as the old books could be ex- changed free for the new ones. The time of ning the schools was fixed for the first week of September, so that, as heretofore, the Alex- andria public schools will be open full ten months. The board certified to the correct- ness of the school census and to the efficiency of Messrs, Field and Price, employed as assist- ants to the clerk, in taking the census. The accounts of the treasurer failed, by aome inad- vertence, to be laid before the board, and the board adjourned to meet on call as soon as the clerk should receive the accounts. Tur Cexsvs oF ALEXANDRIA.—It appears very difficult to obtain the exact figures of the population of this city. ‘The last figures of the Census Office differ by about 500 from those first furnished by that office and the rough count of the cards only has so far been made. But enough has been ascertained to show that the increase of Alexandria upon the popula- tion shown in 1880 has not been great. This is confirmed by the school census just taken, which shows a slight increase in the number of white children, but a decrease in the number of colored children. Considerable numbers of colored people have moved away and their place has been supplied by an accession of white people.

Va., August 6. Aserious accident recently occurred in this place in front of the Baltimore and Ohio depot, resulting in the death of Mr. Benjamin Lambert, son of ex-Mayor Lambert. Mr. Lambert was em- ployed as a conductor on a shifting engine. He had just closed the switch opposite the large ware house of the Hannis distillery and in at- tempting tostep on the rear of the tender, which was approaching him, he missed his foot hold and fell in front of the wheels, One leg was severed close to the body and the other terribly mangled. He died in a few hours, leaving a family consisting of a wife and two children. Another employe of the railroad company at this place, Mr. Joseph Hemmel, a young man, in attempting to board an excursion train at Pen Mar, which had started on its return, fell and was badly bruised about the head and arm His right hand was subsequently ampu- tated. The new hosiery factory recently completed has commenced operations. A large number of females are employed and orders for the style of goods tobe manufactured here are daily received. Hon. Moses 8. Grantham, aprominent citizen of this county and well known throughout the state and beyond, died recently at bis resi- dence, » few miles distant from Martinsburg. Mr. Grantham, for a number of years, figured conspicuously in local and state politics, havin; served his district in the state senate, bot! before and since the separation of West Virgi- nia from the old state, and was for a long time president of the county court. Judge James H. E. Stewart, who died recently at Luray, represented this coupty in the ‘legis- lature of Virginia before the formation of the state of Vest Virginia and was a member of the Virginia constitutional convention in 1850. He was also at one time editor of the Gazelle pub- lished in this place. He was an able writer and & popular speaker.

Robert, Major Moore and Capt. Rossel held a consultation yesterday with reference to the cable road and the means that might be adopted to lessen the number of accidents along the line. They took no definite action in the matter, but it is probable that the com- pany will be required to stop its cars before crossing the streets instead of afterward, and it as thought this would prove a measure of safety. CROWDING OUT THE DEAD. The Colored Benevolent Society has long owned burial ground right by what is now the boundary line of the new Zoological Park. The cemetery is in a greatly overcrowded con- dition and for over.a year has been closed by order of the health department. A portion of the cemetery, 1.7 acres inextent, lies within the limits of the park and has been condemned for ps ses of improvement. This tract of land crowded with dead bodies which must be re- moved, but the question has arisen whether they shall be reinterred in the other part of the park or removed somewhere else. It is understood that the trustees of the cemetery are willing to adopt the former course, but this cannot be done without the consent of the Commissioners, to whom the whole matter has been referred. It is thought that the Commis- sioners will consent to the proposed plan and the park commissioners are expecting a favor- able decision from them in a few days, — FOLKS AT ROCKVILLE.

Tux Star calle the attention of its readers, men and women, to the coupon petition printed elsewhers, It asks each of them to read the petition carefully, and, if the requests which it contains meet his or her approval, to sign it, cut it out, and send it by mail to or hand it in at Tue Star office. The petition is put in such shape that every citizen anxious to protect life and to improve the conditions of railroad occupation can sign it, whether he favors the removal of the station from the mall or not, and whether he is from south, east or northwest Washington. The people of South Washington will natar- ally seize with eagerness the opportunity to protest against the surface tracks which un- necessarily obstruct, injure, threaten and kill them, and against a measure which perpetu- ates the evil conditions that now exist and which is sustained only by the foulest slander of their section. The people of East Washington, suffering like those of South Washington from en unnecessary multiplication of surface tracks and grade crossings and illegal encroach- ments on the part of the railroad which tray- erses their section, will reasonably join with heart, soul, mind and strength in the move- ment against grade crossings and the Atkin- son bill. For the evils which South Washing- ton endures are their evils also, and this fight is their fight. Nor will Northwest Washington, though not 8 direct sufferer, be indifferent. The obstruc- tive danger-belt of surface tracks between the river front aud the main city endangers the lives of thousands from the northwest as they pass to and from the river on business or pleas- ure, The modern city is a unit, and what injures one section should be felt by all, The public spirit which builds up great cities based upon this sentiment of common interest, Manslaughter by railroad in two sections of the cupital is a concern of the whole city, like the question of a new bridge in the southeast and ‘a Columbus Park in the northwest. The main evil to be remedied in this case is also of general instead of merely local concern because it threatens human life. When murder is to be checked it is not necessary that appeals for aid shall be addressed to a next-door neighbor. It is sufficient if the cry for assistance comes to the ears of a fellow man. The time is now favorable for securing from the railroad what the people seek. It is asking that its illegal acts be legalized and that valu- able privileges be granted to it. The attention of Congress has been called to its affairs, and that body shows a disposition to deal fairly with the people. If this opportunity be wasted the chances are that no other so favorable will ever arise. It will be criminal negligence to fail to act promptly, aud will throw upon all to whom the neglected opportunity is attribatable ashare in the responsibility for future blood- shed at grade crossings. In families where more than one adult sig- nature is to be attached the coupon can be cut out and pasted as a heading on a uheet of paper, upon which additional signatures may be placed.

Society circles at Newport, says s New York World special, are much interested in an en- gagement which is shortly to be announced be- tween Virginia Schley, daughter of the com- mander of the flagship Baltimore, and Ralph Montague Stuart-Wortley, nephew of the Earl of Wharnecliffe and son of Sir James Montague Stuart-Wortley. Miss Schley is in her twenty- first year and described by those who know her a8 4 very pretty girl, with unaffected and win- ning manners, which have won for her « host of friends in the society of NewYork, Washington and elsewhere. She is of medium height, light complexioned, with brown hair and gray-brown eyes, Mr. Stuart-Wortley is between twenty- five and twenty-six years of age. a tall. fine- looking young man of light complexion and witha light mustache. He belongs to a well- known English family that is one of the oldest in the West Riding of Yorkshire and connec’ by blood and marriage with many families prominent in the British aristocracy. The resent Earl of Wharneclifte is third in his line and married to a daughter of the Earl of Harewood. The seats of the family are Wort- ley Hall, Sheffield, Yorkshire, Belmont Castle, Meigle, Perthshire, with a London residence at Wharnecliffe House, Curson street, Mayfair. What makes the present engagement ali the more interesting is the fact that young Stuart-Wortley is about to become an Ameri- can citizen. le came to this country three or four years ago and determined to learn the railroad business. He entered the employ- ment of the Richmond and Danville Railroad, and now lives at Portsmouth, Va., where he holds an important post in’ the service of the company. The Schleys come of an old Maryland family. Capt. Winfield Scott Schley, who commands the flagship of the North At- lantic squadron and will on Saturday have the honor of conducting President Harrison to Boston, has a distinguished record in the navy, and commanded the Thetis in the Greely reliet expedition. For his services on this occasion he was not long ago voted by the Maryland legislature a handsome gold watch and chain asa testimonial of regard in behalf of the peo- ple of the state. oe EZETA HAILED AS A SAVIOR. Guatemala Has a Revolution to Deal With. . A dispatch received at the City of Mexico says: Guatemalan revolutionists to the number of 3,000, under Gens, Estanistas Sandoval, Maximo Cerna and Alfonso Irungaray. were defeated on Monday by Guatemalan regulars under Gen. Pedro Barrillas, brother of the President. A dispatch from La Libertad says that Honduras is giving Guatemala moral sup- port. President Bogran, who led his troops to the frontier. retired. leaving the guerrilla chiefs, Figures and Miranda, These twochiefs will be shot if captured by the Salvadorians. A dispatch from Salvador says that Gen, Ezeta was serenaded last night and congrat- ulated by the mercantile community as the savior of his country. His popularity is in- creasing. Ezeta has informed the diplomatic corps, which is mediating for peace, that he anxiously wishes peace in order to avoid fur- ther bloodshed. A correspondent of the Buenos Ayres Stand- ard said recently: “With reference to the man Gen. Ezeta), who is directly responsible for the existing disorder and all possible eventu- alties resulting therefrom, let mention be made of how much he was indebted to President Menendez, to whom he owed all his advance- ment and success in life. Menendez over- stepped the bounds of signal approval and conferred the most generous marks of esteem upon his favorite—allowing him a loud voice in the legislation, receiving him as a bosom friend into his confidence—confirming the same by appointing him commander-in-chief of the forces, and yet it appears that this un- suspecting man had received warnings and in- timations about his protege, but remained deaf “On the occasion of the military parade on June 22 Ezeta led the troops, mounted ona spirited horse, wearing a Prussian helmet and arrayed in gorgeous military raiment, render- ing himself so conspicuous a figure that he attracted general attention. People standing close to Menendez when the procession passed the palace say that the president, overcome with enthusiasm. exclaimed: ‘Look him, a true soldier—a Prussian, a Napoleon—and yet they care not for him—even in the ministry they dispute with me about him, and perhaps I shail have to part with him'—convincing tesfimony that he was by no means awakening to a knowi- edge of his favorite’s duplicity.” The corre- spondent of the Standard is outspoken in charg- ing Ezeta with poisoning President Menendez. oles dear a Fire was started ina barn at Perry, Iowa, yes- terday by some children playing with matches, Two barns were consumed, and a two-year-old daughter of H.

At a meeting of Jews in Edinburgh it was resolved to raise a fund to assist Jews expelled from Russia through the Jewish society for the colonization of Palestine. The czar and czarina have returned from their tour of Finland, where they met witha very cold reception. James Moore, aged sixty, a farmer residing in Weston, Conn., fell from a wagon Monday night and broke his neck, dying almost in- stantly. Amob of soldiers combined with the peas- antry and destroyed the railroad to Lutai, Shanghai. on the pretense that the road caused the recent floods in the Peiho river. The government remained passive, making no effort to stop the work of destruction. The Hamburger Correspondent says that Em- peror William will spond nine days in Russia on his coming visit to the czar. It also says that he will be accompanied by Chancellor Yon Caprivi and the Prince of Saxe-Attenberg.
