It is not usual for a person to live to be more than a hundred years old, but this morning s woman died in this city who had reached the very advanced age of one hundred and four. The woman was Mrs. Agatha Rabaza, who has beon living fora great many years with her daughter, Mrs. Chas, McLane, 509 8th street southeast, Five generations lived under the same roof tree, Mrs. Rabaza being the head of the group. She was born at Port Mahon, on the Island of Monaco, but came to this country when her daughter was widowed by the explo- sion of s gun on board the U.S.8. Princeton. While she was still in Spain she met Napoleon Bonaparte and conversed with the Empress Josephine. Her life, beginning as it did well beck in the last century, was a varied one, and it was her custom for years to interest her friends and relatives with Teminiscences of her youth and of the inter- esting ple and things she bad seen in her long life. Both physically mentally she was remarkably active, but since the death of granddaughter several mouths ago she has seemed quite broken, and it was realized that her life could not be prolonged much further. _——— TO RUN ON THE POTOMAC. The Inspection at Wilmington Yester- day of the Two New Steamors. The party that went ovor to Wilmington yes- terday to view the two new Potomac river steamers that are being built at the Harlan & Hollingsworth yard returned last evening. The two iron steamers that are to run between Nor- folk and Washington are now lying on the stocks and numbers of gangs of men are busy riveting on the iron sides, while the beautiful woodwork of the interior is being completed in the carpenter aud joiner shops. According to the contract made with the builders every- thing in the new sister vessels is to be of the very finest and most approved character, and one of the members of the ship building frm told a Sram reporter that the boats would be the finest of the class anywhere in point of finish and convenience to travele: while they would still be as safe and strong as iron could make them. Each boat is to be 258 feet long over all, 46 feet wide at the guard, 23 feet deep and is’ to cost 2234.000. It is expected that the new vessels wiil be completed by next March and they will then be put to waking fast night trips between this city and Norfolk. A day boat is also did line of gentlemen's hats and neckwear. planned for the near future.

Tue Street Rattnoap.—The city council meets tonight and will, it 1s expected, repeal that portion of the act granting right of way to the Alexandria and Fairfax Passenger Railroad Company, which requires the company to pay, under arbitration, a bonus on its receipts after the road has been five years in operation. Messra. Fisher, Stauss, Lichberg and others, who are the Alexandria corporators, give their word that in case this bonus is taken off the New York incorporators will complete the rail- way through the city within two years. It is proposed also to extend the road around Semi- nary Hill, but as the extension is outside of the city limits the city council has nothing to do with it, Conroration Court.—The corporation court, Judge Norton, continues its sessions. On its criminal side the grand jury has indicted T. Cary and H. Javens for breaking into an out- house, Ed. Miller for larceny, Mary A. White for burglary. Henry Englehardt was convicted of selling liquor on Sunday and fined $10 and a similar verdict and sentence was made in the caso of Margaret Alexander for the samo of- fence.

Ax Attempt To Waeck a T&aix.—Last Satur- day evening as the Richmond accommodation train, which leaves Alexandria at 4:55 p.m., rounded the curve just north of Franconia sta- tion it came toa stand still, Some scoundrel had placed s railroad rail across the track. This is one of the most dangerous curves be- tween Washington and Richmond, and but for the watchfulness of the enginecr and other officers on that train a terrible accident would have occurred. For the past three weeks the signal lights along the road in this locality have been extinguished mysteriously and other obstructions placed in the way of the trains. Railroad men are very reticent about the matter, bug suspicion is directed toward some of the discharged employes of the road. To Coxrer Wits Ma. Hume.—The Colored Republican League of Alexandria, Va., at a meeting last night appointed a committee com- aah of James Buckner, John H. Harrison, G. Preston and 8. Bates to confer with Mr. Hume. Saing the Railroad Company. On the 27th of March last Cornelius Driscoll, anemploye of the Baltimore and Ohio Rail- rosd Company, while repairing the road bed on 6th street near the depot was ran over and killed by one of the company’s locomotives while backing into the station to take out a train. The coroner’s jury attributed the acci- dent to the fact that there was no watch or lookout on the tender of the locomotive. This morning the personal representatives of the deceased, by their attorneys, Messrs. H. E. Davis and Joseph Shillington, filed a suit against the company, claiming 10,000 dam- ages and charging the accident to have been caused by gross carelessness on the part of the railroad company.

Since suggestions for a location that will be acceptable, both in an artistic and public view, for the Lafayette monument, and one that will at the same time honor the French nation, seem to be in order, the writer begs leave to suggest the place now occupied by the useless and not over beautiful fountain that is situated on the west side of 15!{ street opposite the west front of the Treasury Department. This location with its surroundings and the White House in the distance would make, it is be- lieved, as desirable « place as the city affords, CAM. ——._——_ A Window in a Party Wall. Patrick Corcoran yesterday filed a bill by Mr. 8. T. Thomas against Washington T. Nailor to compel the closing of a window ina party wall. The parties own parts of lot 3, square 630, front- ing on New Jersey avenue between D and E streets northwest. The bill states that in 1887 the defendant placed windows in the wall over- looking his premises aud plaintiff filed a bill for an injunction, which resulted in an order compelling the windows to be closed up. The complainant now charges that in August the defendant, under « permit to build a brick well hole, bas cut a hole fifteen feet wide and twenty feet bigh, in which he 1s constructing an “in- rerted bay window” overlooking his premises, which, he charges, weakens the wall and con- stitutes « nuisance. —_———-+_ Gone to a Railroad Convention.

Miss Lilly Post makes a taking Katherine, and M: Knapp’s Emerenz is a gentle contralto charac- ter in the miuor chorde of widow's weeds, Mr. Oicott’s tenor voice shows il in Otmar, Mr. Rochestra as the magician says some bright thinge and Mr. Blaisdell as his private secre- tary carries the part gracefully. The opera is Particularly strong in chorus and there are some pretty girls in the chorus, which is not always,the usual case, ‘The Seven Suabins” made a big long hit with their base ball game in the topical soug “Wait a Little Bit.” The scenery, by Macder. Schaeffer and Arthur Voeghtlin was fine. Again tonight. Nationar—"Tue Merny Moxancn."—It was Hub Snnth night at the Nationai last night and the “Merry Monarch” for the nonce bowed subject to “A Tale of Woe,” but the merry mouarch didn't care for that. He was looking for « grief, anyhow, and in Hub's oration found one which, like all others, he enjoyed so intensely that they became “gigantic jags of Joy” and he had to be merry in order to be sor- rowful. The orchestra chairs were knee deep in Columbia Club men to give their Hub a wail or two, and they did it with a wild, tempestuous ardor that sounded like two hundred and thirty-seven oyster shellers pealing thun- der on a tin roof, or words to that effect. ‘The audience took it up, of course, and slapped the echoes fore aud aft und sidewise and perpendicularly, and everybody on the stage got it as vach one came out, with a resounding and exuberant swat for Francis Wilsou and u 12x16 ovation to Marie Janssen. Everybody was astar last night, and if the bass fiddler, however bass he may he, had risen and avked fora toot he would have gotten it, even if nobody but the trom- bone player would have given it to him. That's because the audience was ong rupport und toot and scramble, Asan opera ‘The Merry Mon- @rch” is of course a Wilsonic success, with a great many passages in its libretto which sound as it Bull Nye bad written them. The music 1s 80 $0; some of it very protty and sweet and soft and melodic and insinuating, and some of it hard enough to break with a hammer. ‘The house was fuller than any man in it had ever seen in his life. As before stated, it was Hub Smith night, and Hub’s part was not the star part either, but it was beautiful to look at. The other scenery of the play is exquisite in tints and shades and is music in itscif. Again to- night. Kenyay’s—Howanp Bortesque Company.— The most fastidious patron of variety shows cannot help but be satisfied with the entertain- ment presented by th Company at Kernan’s night the house was packed and every feature of the program applauded. The olio presents many new fuces, conspicuous among them be- ing Miss Julia Kelly, who plays the banjo und dances gracefully, Charies Banks made a funny stump speech and later received un- stinted applause as the old maid. Max Petten- gill and his comical dog pleased all, and John- son and Gentry sang some funny topical songs. ‘The burlesque on “Ihe Country Fair” closed the performance. A racing scene in this act, in which shapely girls play the part of book- makers, is something new. Again tonight. Hanuis’-—"Ixsmavoovs.”—Those who enjo} aclean cut Irish comedy will be pleased witl the performance at Harris’ Bijou this week. Last night a large audience was present and testistied its appreciation of the strong sit- uations and bright comedy flashes with which the play abounds by frequent applause. ‘The play was “Inshavogue,” by W. J. Florence. the action is laid ina small town in Ireland during the rebellion of 1798, and the characters and scenery are quite true to nature. The waterfall scene in the last act isa clever pieco of stage mechanism. Much praise is due the company. As Inshavogue W. B. Cahill gave « Pleasing and at the same timo strong deline- ation of the famous Irish hero. Miss Lottie Winnett as Mollie 0’ Mara presented a true type of the faithful, shrewd and courageous peasant i re skillfully and gracefully inder of the company was excellent. Again tonight.

A Kemarkuble Disappearance. Last week a woman named Brennan, while on her way from St, Louis to Bethlehem. Pa., jumped from the cars at Clarksburg, West Va., and fled to the mountains, leaving seven chil- dren behind her uncared for. It is alleged that she was driven from her home in St. Louis by the brutal treatment of a husband and her father, and that she suddenly became insane. It isalso said that the minds of two of the children are affected. Search was at once in- stituted for the woman, and, nothwithstanding veral hundred men have joined in the searzh, she has not yet been found. The mayor of Clarksburg had the children taken care of uatil communication with their eastern friends can be had. ‘ Sczorvra Honor Appears ina thousand different forms and causes a vast amount of suffering.

If 2 person has an obstinate congh, which com- menced without any obvious cause, a cough @hich is at firet dry and bucking, and subsequently attended for a time with frothy or mucilaginous-looking expec- toration, cecompanied by wandering pains abont the chest and loss of flesh, even to asiight extent, he is in all probubility coustmptive. If, besides, there be La-moptysts or spitting of blood, even to the amount of wdzachm, the probability is increased to almosta certainty. If, in xddition to these symptoms, the breathing becomes harsh, burried and deep inspira- tions evoke a few clicks of = dry and cracking sound, or if the voice becomes permanently weak aud hoarse, there can be little doubt that the pervon is suilering froza consumption. 1f a person, iree from dysentery, and who Las not re- Sided in tropical climates, suffers from obstinate disr- thea, which gues on month ziter month, with slight emission or intermission, even though there be no cough, he is most likely consumptive Should this diarrhosa be followed by chest symptoms of the alight- €et amount, the existence of consumption is an ab- solute certainty. If young adult, not addicted to enervating habits und not leading a dissolute life, without clear cause steadily loses weight, he is, in all probability, consumptive, though no chest symp- toms should have appeared. When such, however, manifest themselves additionally the establishment of consumption is almost a fixed fact. In ail cases where any of the manitestations described make their appearance We should advise an iumodiate examina- tion of the chest ands prompt resort to ayppropriate treatment. Atan early stage of radical cure can be frequently effected, and health placed upon a firm and permanent footing, while with every step in ad- vance wich the disease is allowed to take the chances fora perfect recovery diminish correspondingly. Our readers must bear in mind tbat the most skillful and efficient treatment can do bo more than tomakesound and useful asiuch of the lungs as is present at the lime when the progress of consumption becomes sus- pended, No means on carth cfu replace the lupe tis sue which has been deatroyed by the ulcerated pro- cess. ‘1be earlier, theretore, consumption is attended to, the better are the chances tur satusfactory results.
