Photographs Criticised From an Ar- tist’s Standpoint, A NOVEL TALK AT THE NATIONAL MUSEUM—THE IDOLS OF PROFESSIONAL PHOTOGRAPHERS RUDELY JOSTLED—PHOTOGRAPHS THAT SHOW TOO MANY POINTS OF INTEREST. The photographers of the National Associa- tion, now in session here, were treated toa very novel sort of entertainment last night at the National Museum in the form of aseries of criticisms on some: of their best work by an artist, Mr. J. Scott Hartley, the sculptor of the Daguerre memorial, was the lecturer, if such a title can be applied to the position which he occupied, a most trying one, indeed, for him. He is essentially an artist, imbued with ali of the finer sensibilities of such a personage, a disbeliever in many of the established canons of the photographer's art, and what is more, a sculptor. There is but little in common be- tween these arts, photography and sculpture, and for a member of one to be called upon to place the work of the others alongside his own rules and standards is, indeed, a difficult task. But Mr. Hartley stood the ordeal ina very patient and creditable manner. THE LECTURER, ‘The lecture hall was crowded when the lights were turned down. President Appleton had just previously introduced Mr. Hartley to the audience, a slight, frail man with a curly beard and rather long locks, a man whose frame and fiber seemed to indicate the presence of art and deftness, whose rather high forehead showed a large capacity for study and thought. He waited until Mr. Appleton had explained that this was a new departure “in our art in having our work criticised by an artist,” and then responded by acmitting that, it was also AMUSEMENTS TONIGHT.

Policeman Stearman was the prosecuting ‘Witness in the Police Court today in the case of two colored boys who were charged with throwing stones. The officer knew nothing of the facts, but he charged the boys with the offense on information received and depended en the evidence of another colored boy for a conviction. The court heard the evidence of all the parties concerned and concluded that the witness and not the prisoners was guilty, but as thece was no charge against the witness he could not be fined. The prisoners were dis- ebarged. —_——_ Now és the time to stamp out the stupid lie often sed by the advocates of the Atkinson bill that the citizens of other sections of Washington regard with indifference the sacrifice of the lives and prop erty of the people of South Washington, Send in your protest ayainst the calumny. ——— It Woke Up the Sleepers. The gas in the electric light conduit at the corner of 9th street and New York avenue ex- ploded this morning about 3 o'clock. Several manhole covers were thrown into the air and the report of the explosion woke up the quiet sleepers of the neighborhood. ————— Sale of Massachusetts Ave: Property. Gen. B. H. Kobertson has just sold for Major R. M. Grinnell the fine dwelling, No. 1409 Mas- sachusetts avenue, for $30,000, to Col. Stockton newtohim. The audience was ready for rather more, it seemed, than what followed. Mr. Hartley, a little nervous, found it necessary to lean on his pointer rather heavily, having none of that stage presence and lack of conscious- ness that comes to an experienced lecturer, and he began by criticising the first picture that flashed on the screen, without any words of preamble or any general remarks about art and ite relations, SHATTERING IDOLS. Here was a man shattering some of the most cherished ideals of the camera workers, who had very decided views as to backgrounds and “accessories,” and who thought that all the in- terest in a portrait should be concentrated at the face and shoulders without resorting to any of the innumerable little devices of which professional photographers are so fond, and it 38 not to be wondered that some of his hearers finally began to resent this iconoclasm by criticising Dr. Hartley's criticisms in turn. But he did his share in such a mild _way and they were so good-natured about their resent- ment that the evening was by no means marred by this fact, LIGHTS AND SHADES. The main theme and line of the artist's cri- tiques seemed to be along whatmight be called the concentration of lights and shadows. He took occasion two or three times to condemn in his mild way the scattering all over the photo- graph of spots of light that took away the in- terest from the main points, such as the fa or the pose of the subject. He soon took an opportunity to sit down rather heavily on elab- orate backgrounds for simple portraits, and in the case of an elegantly dressed lady reclining at her ease ina fine chair, with several carved pieces of furniture about her and a striped pillow at her feet, he remarked, to the satistac- tion of acertain ‘portion of his audience, that there was too much photograph of the furni- ture and too little of the figure. Another por- trait he called “a trifle stiff,” and went on to show how the arm should have been placed at adifferent angle in order to avoid a corre- spondence of lines between that member and certain parts of the drapery. The hand came out on the back of a chair that was very prom- inent, and this he thought a fault, for, he said, all accessories should be kept subordinates, classifying the hand as a mere accessory to the face and figure. TOO MANY POINTS OF INTEREST. A funny picture of a baby and, presumably, its grandfather he thought was very well, but for the fact that there were too many points of interest. In the case of a sad-looking individ- ual—a female—sitting in a lonely cell. which pro- duced some applause from the audience, he had but little to say, except that the right shoulder seemed to be supporting the rather heavy col- umn that formed the doorway. After he had concluded his original remarks about each picture he waited to give his hearers a chance to ask questions, a privilege of which they eagerly availed themselves, SOMETHING HE BELIEVED IX, The portrait of an exceedingly pretty girl standing in a contemplative mood gazing at a daisy in her hand brought forth loud applause, and when the noise had stopped Mr. Hartley remarked that those were his sentiments too. And so they ran, art criticisms from a sculptor’s point of view, criticisms on photo- Sraphs, of which some of the real beauties haa been lost and all the defects exaggerated in their reduction and final magnification in getting them upon lantern slides. Some corns were very rudely stepped on by the artist, and the owners let their discomfiture be known un- der the anonymous covering of the darkness, but when the audience filed out of the hal there had been several wholesome lessons taught and some good seeds sown. The critiques were all on photographs now on ex- hibition at the convention, with the names of the artists concealed, so that no one knew whose work was being shown. es Serfous Accident in a Church. Yesterday afternoon one of the workmen, Mr. E. H. Keilem of Elizabeth, N.J., engaged in frescoing the interior of Epiphany Church had a fall which came near being fatal and he is not now out of danger. The plank upon which he was standing near the ceiling broke and he fell to the door among the pews, his fall being broken by intervening seaffuldmg. He was badly bruised, one or two ribs being broken, and was injured internally. Dr. Charles Allen was called and Mr. T. V. Goodman kindly prof- fered a carriage from his stables to copvey him tothe Slater House, where his wounds were dressed, —_—-—___ Hokey-Pokey Man and the Huckster.

ONE OF THEM SENT TO JAIL FOR SIX MONTHS BY JUDGE MILLS—A WARNING TO OTHER OF- YENDERS—REMARKS OF TRE JUDGR—LIVES OF TRAVELERS MUST BE PROTECTED. The lives of passengers on trains on the Metropolitan Branch of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad have several times been endan- gered near Terra Cotta crossing by colored boys living near that station, who placed ob- structions on the tracks. Fortunately no one has been injured. The obstructions placed on the tracks were stones, but in each instance the engine wheels crushed or tossed them from the track without derailing the train. On several occasions the engineers saw the obstructions, but not the train was too near to stop be- fore striking them. AN EXPRESS TRAIN IN DANGER, Last Friday the Cincinnati express train struck one of the obstructions mentioned and the stone was broken into a number of pieces, which struck against the cab. It was fortunate for the engineer and fireman that they were not killed by the flying missiles. Detective John Lloyd of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad made an investigation of the matter, and yesterday he went to Terra Cotta and ested Eldridge Brown, a 15-year-old colored boy, and locked him up as one of the alleged wrong-doers. The boy protested his innocence, but said he had seen other boys put stones on the track. The boy was subsequently released on $6 collateral. Before being released he told the officer that he knocked two stones off the track. IN THE POLICE COURT. When the case was heard in the Police Court this morning Detective Lloyd said that the train on the down grade near Terra Cotta runs at the rate of about amile a minute and should a train be ditched there a hundred or more per- sons would probably be killed. ‘The engineer and fireman of a Cincinnati ex- press train explained the danger attending the placing of stones on the track and related their experiences at that crossing. The fireman recognized Brown as the boy who placed stones on the track two weeks ago. Two small colored boys, companions of the defendant, appeared and gave evidence against im, ‘The boy denied the charge. He charged one of the witnesses against him with having laced the stones on the track and he said that Ee (Brown) knocked them off. “This boy,” said his counsel, “is charged with malicious mischief.” “About as malicious as any mischief could added the court. REMARKS OF JUDGE MILLS, Judge Mills said that the mind can hardly see the consequences that might ensue from such acts. If there was no statute against such an offense the court would be constrained to make a rule covering it aud so hlod until it was reversed. Such mischief, the court said, is as malicious as any mischief could be. This case is one that should be made an example of and such an example that the boys living along that road should tae that they must not amuse themselves in any such way. ‘The lives of the hundreds of passengers must be protected. “This boy,” concluded Judge Mills, ‘‘can have six months in jail without fine.” Counsel noted an appeal and bond was fixed at $500. ———— THEY WANT TO BE POLICEMEN. Examination of Applicants for Appoint- ment on the Metropolitan Force. An examination was held at police head- quarters yesterday afternoon of candidates for positions on the police force, and many men who were already clothed in blue suits and brass buttons were candidates. They were from the army and navy, and some of them no doubt were strangers in this community. Among those examined were sergeants and corporals in Uncle Sam’s service, but they were willing to be reduced to privates on the Metro- politan police force. The recent appropriation bill made provision for the appointment of thirty-two more men, including two new sergeants, who will be pro- moted from the ranks. The change will also necessitate the promotion of fifteen men from the first to the second class, and all of the $75 class are now expecting to be increased to the 290 class, The appointments will be made as soon as the requisite number of eligible men are found. Of those who were examined yesterday more than one half were rejected. WILL THERE BE BALL PLAYING? The Brooklyn American Club Said to Be Coming to Washington, ‘The drooping interest in base ball in this city has received a slight stimulus in the way of a rumor that was pretty widely printed this morning, to the effect that the Brooklyn Amer- ican Association team is to be transferred to this city for the balance of the season. A special dispatch to the Philadelphia Inquirer from St. Louis states: “The prospects of the Brooklyn association team finishing its season in Washington are very brilliqnt at present, There is now no club at Washington, and it is the belief of the Brooklyn management, the players and the as- sociation that the club would do better there than on their home grounds. President Phelps of the association has expressed his opinion about the legality and financial advantage of the move and considers it a first-class one. At all events it is understood at present that Man- er Kennedy will run over to Washington, lenving the team in charge of Capt. Gerhardt, and make arrangements there with the Wash- ington management of the defunct Atlantic iation team, Joe Gerhardt is » Washing- ton boy, and Bill O'Brien and Ed Daily have exch played there in seasons gone by, and as the association ball is of a great deal higher standard than that of the Atlantic Association it is believed the Brooklyns will make good a great many losses by playing there. Washing- ton isa 25-cont ball town, and large crowds will no doubt watch the finishing contests of the season there, providing the Brooklyns mnake it their stamping ground.” ‘The ball games pinyed yesterday resulted as follows: Atlantic Association.—At Lebanon — Balti- Lebanon, 3.

The republicans of the fifth Maryland dis- trict held their congressional convention yes- terday at Laurel and Sydney E. Mudd, the present Representative, was renominated by acclamation. Contrary to expectation the name of Thomas Clagett of Prince George's was not presented to the convention. . The convention, which met at noon, was called to order by State Senator Coffin, Mr. W. F. Chesley of St, Mary's was elected temporary and later perm- anent chairman. The other officers elected were: Benjamin F, Hiss and Rowland Williams, secretaries; vice presidents, T.

A Rattroap Wan.—Mayor Downham has re- newed the operations against the He: street railroad track of the Pennsylvania Raiiroad Com , begun under the order of the city council by Mayor Beckham soon after the war. he right to use Henry street was granted to the ‘xandria, Washington and Georgetown Railroad as, of Hay and others, which had succeeded under decree of court to the charter and rights of the Alexandria and Wash- ington Company, but the supreme court of appeals held that decree void, and the Alexandria, Washington and Georgetown Rail- road Company thereupon ceased to exist and the grants of right of way to it on Henry and St. Asaph streets me void. The council compelled the abandonment of St. Asaph street and Mayor Beckham, with a posse which he had summoned, had begun to tear up the Henry street track, when a temporary injune- tion gotten out by the railroad company stopped him, and since then the suit has been continued from time to time undismissed but untried. The city authorities have recognized the road on that street in its orders for signal men at crossings, &c. Now Mayor Downham, urged bya number of citizens who contend that the railroad has ruined Henry street, has directed Corporation Attorney Brent to move to dismiss the injunction, So the war reopens. New Reapens For Scuoors.—-The city school board met Tuesday night, President Smith in the chair. The meeting had been called to consider the answer of the University Publish- ing Company to a proposal of the board as to a change in readers. It was determined to adopt Holmes’ new readets and spellers in all the classes, All Holmes’ old readers are to be ex- chamged for new ones free and Holmes’ new Teaders and spellers to be exchanged for Mc- Guffey’s readers and Watson's spellers at ex- change prices, no other change in books to be made. The book lists will now be prepared and Preparations made for the opening of the schools in the first weck of September. Surervisors axp Roaps.—The county super- visors, Messrs, Frank Hume, J. 8. Corbett and W. G. Wilson, held their meeting at the county court house Tuesday. It was resolved to pub- lish the financial report of the county in the newspaper offering the lowest rates. Mr. J. F. Hager, road surveyor of Washington district, resigned his place. The new order as to the county roads was considered and the board ad- journed until the 10th instant in order to take final action on the subject at that date. In the meanwhile the commissioners of roads will re- ceive suggestions in writing as to the method of improving the county roads, and the new plans will be put into vigorous operation at once, Poxrttcar.—It 18 understood that Mr. Frank Hume will not now decline to be a candidate for Congress, but will leave himself in the hands of his friends with a view to future contin- encies.

Correspondence of Tue EVENING STAR, Asbury Panx, August 13, Ihave made three visits to this seashore re- sort, the first in 1878, the second in 1886 and the last in 1890, The growth of the town has been remarkable. Its site was a wilderness in 1870; its assessable property is now $2,500,000. The perfaanent population is about 4,000, and the transient runs up in August to at least ten times that number. There are three banks, seven regular churches, an educational hall, an opera house, two daily newspapers, a§ many “merry go rounds,” a toboggan chute, sundry places of amusement and two electric railw: one from the railroad station to the beach, and the other making the circu:t of the town with more or less regularity. Costly water works supply all houses with pure water from arte- sian wells, There are fifteen miles of main sewer pipes. and the sewage is conducted sev- eral hundred feet into the ocean. From Sandy Hook to Cape May the shore of Now Jefbey has been laid off in towns with narrow streets. Ocean Grove is not an exception, But Asbur. Park has many nortb and south avenues, eac of them from 100 to 200 fect in width. The mall on the ocean front is still wider, interpos- ing ar impassable barrier to the encroachments of waves on the squares designated for build- ings. The broad piank walk, the fashionable promenade, extends for @ mile along the beach so near the water that at one point the spray is thrown by high waves to the middie of the walk. ‘The town is pretty well built up, there being comparatively few vacant lots, a prosperity is indicated by the character of the residences, Of these, none are shabby and very few neg- lected; they range from two thousand doliat cottages to thirty thousand dollar houses, Many of the grounds sre beautiful, the hu- midity of the atmosphere favoring green sward, coleas and flowering shrubs, ‘Lhe place gives one the impression that the proprietors are neurly all in easy circumstances, There is little of the ostentation of wealth, Atully-ho coach, somo fine equipages and riding horses give variety to street scenes, but are the exception rather than the rule. Atlow tide the beach is alive with bathers and spectators. It is a good beach for adults, but not equal for women and children to the one at Ocean Grove, the slope being steeper and the big waves, in rough weather, curling and breaking very near the shore, Last Fri- day, while none but a few strong young men braved the buffeting of the waves at the Park, I saw several hundred persons, including women and children, enjoying themselves in the water at Ocean Grove, The municipal management of the town is excellent, Its chief feature, the exclusion of drinking saloons, has been copied in several other charters of watering places on the Jer- sey coast. It secures good order. Last year, Tam told, there were only twenty-three arrests, most of them of excursionists. W.B. urea cesses A Gang of Youthful Thieves. On a vacant lot in South Washington, not far from 43¢ and I streets, there is a merry-go- round, which attracts lurge crowds every even- ing. When the lamps and candles are lighted and the motley crowd assembles a picnic seene is presented. The clam and crab man is there, and red lemonade, pies, cakes and sandwiches are sold in quantities, William Young, a col- ored man, who is the proprietor of a traveling hotel, was on the ground with his lemonade and cakes and pies and did an extensive busi- ness @arly yesterday evening. Later a crowd of fifteen or twenty boys gathered near the stand and one of them asked for a glass of lem- onade, for which he was to pay one cent, Young stooped over to dish a glass of the refreshing beverage when one of the urchins blew out the dealer's light, and the boys made an attempt to carry off the hotel. They succeeded, so far as three pounds of sausage and some sweatbreads were concerned, and only one of them was cap- tured. He was arrested by Policeman Eser, and he gave his name as William Griff. This morning the case was tried in the Police Court. Judge Mills wanted to send Grifiin to the re- form school, but as there was no room in that institution the court imposed a fine of 85 or thirty days, Is the expression a Indy used in describing her con- dition before using Hood's Sarsaparilia. 4 his prep- aration is wonderfully adapted for weakened or low state of the system.

Take it now if you “feel tired all over.” “Feeling languid and dizzy, having no appetite and no ambition to work, I took Hood's with the best results. As a health invigorator and medi- cine for geveral debility I think it superior to any- thing else.” A. A. RIKER, Albany st, Utica, N.Y.
