The members of the National Base Ball Club will report for duty today in Baltimore, and will proceed to spend the better part of the week in the monumental city practicing with the Orioles. Mannger Trott has foreseen that the new grounds will not be ready for play for over a week, and has wired the Boston people that their date here on next Friday will have to be postponed until the Tuesday following. The program will therefore be that the home team after five days of practice in Baltimore will go over to Philadelphia and play two games with the Athletics. Then the men will come back here all together in this city for the first time as Washington players, and on Tuevday will play the Bostous. After thet there are no regularly scheduled games, but Trott hopes that by that time there will be some strong amateur teams organized here that will give him some practice. THE HOME. PLAYERS. There are now five of the men in town who will go over to Baltimore with Manager Trott—Hines, Keefe, Bakely, Carsey and Me- Guire. Carsey lives here and so do Hines and Keefe. The latter has evidently come toa realization of the ii rtance of playing ti yp ball thix season, as he is not only taking self, but is also doing his best to get into con- dition. He promises that he will pitch the very best he knows how this year, but there good mai promises like that made in base ball. George is a Washingtonian and therefore he has many PITCHER GEO. KEEFE. friends here who want to see him succeed in the box, especially for this team, and they are going to give him every enconragement, but they will not stand any fooling nor any loafing in the box, for they are of that sort of base ball cranks that can tell shabby work in an instant and they will tolerate it from no one. A NEW CATCHER was secured Jast week, or rather one accepted the terms of the Washington magnates, Sut- cliffe, the Cleveland player. He is well known here, having played with the great team of two years ngo that won the admiration of so many folks by its magnificent work at the start of season. Laxt year he played with the Playe League. His family is sick, and he will not be able to report for duty quite on time, but he will be ready for the opening of the season. ‘THE GROUNDS. ‘The frequent rain that bas fallen of late bac delayed the work on the grounds beyond cal- culation. The work that now presses is that of grading, and the enormous moisture that has revailed has almost put a stop to progress. Whe diamond and field are totally cleared of trees, and the holes are so well filled that no one would ever suspect that a grove once covered the ground. The fences and stands are practically completed, and were it not for the dampness there need have been no post- ponement of the opening of the new park. The season opens on Wednesday, April 8, with the team at Philadelphia, but the cham- pionship play will not begin on the home grounds until the Monday following, when Bos- ton will appear. THE RESIGNATION OF MR. THURMAN was the sensation of the week. It has come to the point that there must be at least one sen- sation a week in base ball or the news of the day is considered stale and flat and dull. This resigmation was quite unexpected by the out- side world, but not by the other members of the board of control. It was not, it is said, the forerunner of a peace in any Way, as was at first asserted, but was simply a matter of dollars and cents with the Ohio magnate. He wanted more pay then was coming to him under the altered state of thi and, as he said that be could not afford to keep the place Of chairman of the board unless he recived this additional compensation, his resignation was promptly accepted by his colleagues. The correspondence in the case, that is, the last two letters, may be read here In view of the retiremert of Mr. Thurman from the chairmanship of the national board Mr. N. E. Young has been selected to fill the vacancy. MORE WAR TALK. The talk that Johnson is at war again with the league is interesting, but there is nothing | to be gained by it. There is no good to come from any of this strife, anyway, but it seems to be inevitable. Johnson is iow threatening to # President Young for the money that wa: named by the league for the purchase of the Cincinnati club, while Mr. Young says that he has noauthority to pay until Johnson shows that he has delivered all of the goods, con- tracts, franchises, agreements and the lease of the grounds. It is the Jatter that is causing the trouble. The presence of even a tempo- rary injunction against Johnson's transferring the grounds to the league would prevent his de- livery of his entire plant, as he had agreed to do. and until he doea this Mr. Young claims he has no right to the money. Two C. &. C. BALL TEAMS. The base ball committee of the C. A. C. held ameeting Wednesday night in the gymnasium of the club house, and started the ball rolling for the season. The committee consists of Messrs. Larner, Keenan and Ranier. The ball players of the club were also present. Instruc- tions were issued to the players of last year to assemble on Analostan Inlaid tomorrow for the purpose of getting an estimate of the playing strength of the club. All other members who believe they can play ball are asked to be there as weil. o teams formed, to be known ae “first” and “second.” A number of letters have already been received from various colleges asking for dates, and the prospects are that the teas» will have their hands full if they attempt to whip everything that comes along. The following’ men have’ been especially Ie. structed to be present on the island tomorrow: Wells, Sprigman, Bolwny, J. E. Jones, Koman, Dickinson, Greene, Walsh, Daly, Dashieli, Me- Cormick, Fuller and Homiller. NOTES. Bakely is n cold weather pitcher. Gaffney umpires this year in the western. Quite a drop.

D.C, MONDAY, MARCH 23. 1891. GEN. JOSEPft E. JOHNSTON. The Ex-Confederate General Passes Quietly Away From Earth, HONORS PAID TO HI® MEMORY BY FORMER ARMY COMRADES AND OTHERS WHO KNEW AND RF- SPECTED HIM--ARRANGEMENTS YOR HIS FU- NERAL HERE TOMORROW—SKETCH OF HIS LIFE. Gen. Joseph E. Johnston died a little after 11 o'clock Saturday evening at his residence, 1028 Connecticut avenue. The immediate cause, as given by the physicians, was heart failure, but the general had Leen a sufferer from a fatty degeneration of the heart, the seriousness of which was increased by a severe cold that he took at the time of the Sherman funeral in New York. His death had been expected for some time past, though slight hopes of his recovery were entertained by his friends as Inte as Sat- urday afternoon. At 5 o'clock Dr. Lincoln called, but found no marked change in thecon- dition of his patient and decided that there was ‘THE END CALM AND PEACEFUL. The general's end was a calm and peaceful one. For 24 hours preceding he had been asleep most of the time. About 11 o'clock Sat- urday evening ex-Gov. McLane of Maryland, who had been at the bedside of the patient for more than a fortnight past, had gone to his room for the night. He was about. to retire, when Russell, the general’s attendant, eame to call him with the news that there was'a marked change for the worse in the sick man’s condi- tion.” The governor went at once to the other room, but he had searcely reached the bedside when he saw that all was over. Gen. Johnston was dead, but so qnietly and calmly had he passed away that it hardly seemed as though it could be. , Gen. Johnston's tiearest living relatives are his sister, Mra. Mitchell of 931 P’ street north- west, this city; her daughter, Mrs. Susan M. Talliaferro, who resides with her; another daughter, Mrs. Binckley of San Francisco, Cal. ; Dr. George Ben Johnston of Richmond, ton of the late ex-Senator Jobn W. Johnston; three other children of ex-Senator Johnston, Joseph E. Jobnston, and Mrs. Daniel Trigg of Abing- Ya., and Mra. McMullan of Frederick, Ma., and Gov. McLane, the brother of his wife, who died four years ago. ARRANGEMENTS FOR THE FUNERAL. The funeral will take place at St. John’s Church tomorrow at 11a. m. promptly. ‘The general for many years was a leading member and supporter of this church, and a number of the honorary pallbearers have been selected from its members. The services will be con- ducted by Dr. Douglass, rector of the church, and at the conclusion of the ceremonies the body will be removed to Baltimore, where it Wili be interred at the Greenmont cemetery. The services in the latter city will be of the simplest description, and there will be no dem- onstration of any sort. The list of honorary pallbearers was com- leted_ yesterday and is as follows: Senator John T. Morgan of Alabama, Senator John W. Daniel of Virginia, Hon. J. L. M. Curry, Gen. John G. Parker, U. 8.

OLD ARMY COMRADES CALL. All day long yesterday there was a stream of callers at the residence on Connecticut avenue. The greater portion of those who called to pay their respects to the dead soldier were old com- rades or men who had fought on the side of the confederacy under his command. There were also a number of army and navy officers who left their cards, among them Gen. Scho- field and Rear Admiral Rodgers. Gen. Rose- crans Was One of the first callers. He was an intimate friend of the late general and spent some time in the house yesterday. A large number of telegrams of condolence were received yesterday from all sections of the countr; SKETCH OF WIS CAREER. Gen. Joseph E. Johnston was the last but one of the six full generals of the confederate army. By act of the confederate congress, August 31, 1861, the appointment of five full generals was authorized, and they were commissioned in the following order: Samuel Cooper, Albert Sidney Jobnston, Robert E. Lee, Joseph E. Johnston . Beauregard. Gen. Bragg was afterward added to the list. Of this number all but Gen, Beauregard have now gone over to the ranks of the dead. He entered West Pomt and gradnated in 1829, in the same class with Robert E. Lee. He was appointed seeand lien- tenant in the fourth artillery and did garrison duty at several posts until 1896, with the excep- tion of a time in 1832, when he was connected with the Black Hawk expedition. He was made first lieutenant July $1, 1836, and was aid-de- camp £0 Gen. Scott in the Seminole war. Two vears later he was breveted captain for his gal- lantry in the war with the Florida Indians. He was afteward engaged ina number of engineer ing works. Inthe Mexican war he served in iege of Vera Cruz and the battles of Cerro do, Contreras, Cherubusco, Malino del Key, ‘heputltepec and the asaault on the City of Mex: ico, and was breveted major, lieutenant colonel and colonel April 12, 1947, for his services at Cerro Gordo. August 12, 1848, he was mus tered out as lieutenant colonel’ of volunteers, but by act of Congres# was reinstated with his original rank of captain of topographical en- Gineors to date from September 2h, 1646. On the 28th of June, 1860, he was commis sioned quartermaster general of the United States army, but resigned that post April 22, 1861, to cnter the confederate service. AS major general of volunteers of the army of Vir~ ginia he worked with Gen. Lee in organizing the volunteers that were pouring into Rich- mond. Later he was appointed one of the four brigadier general's anc placed in command of Harper's Ferry. In July, 1861, he joined forces with Beauregard and remained incommand of the consolidated forces until the «pring of 1862. He was wounded at the battle of {Seven Pines May 31, 1862, and ineapacitated for duty until the following full, He was made get eral in 1861. Gen. Johnston protested at the appointment of these five generals as contrary to the law, which said that when of- ficers reigned from the United States to enter the eonfedernte service their commission should be determined by the one they bad held in the former service, and this protest of his is gen- erally believed to have been the cause of Mr. Davis’ hostility, that was shown toward bim throughout the war. December 18, 1863, John- ston was transferred to the of the man. Gen. Johnston urged Lee to retire from Richmond, join him and defeat Sherman before Grant could join him, but Lee replied that it was im le for him to leave Virginia. On March 19-21 Johuston attacked the head of Sherman's column at Bentonville with some success. While he was retiring toward Greens- bore Lee had surrendered to Grant ahd John- ion advised Mr. Davis not to continue the war y longer. It wawagreed that he should make terms with Sherman. Their first agreement was rejected by the national government and on April 26 they signed a second. After the war Gen. Johuston wae president of a railroad Arkansas, president of an express company in Mirginia and an insurance agent in Savan- nah. In 1877 he was elected to Congress to represent the Richmond district of Virginia, and during Cleveland's administration he was appointed commissioner of railroads, a position he lost something over a year ago. pee tine. A CHIEF DETECTI SHOT. Exciting Duel With a Desperate Man in a Dark Koom. A desperate shooting affair occurred in a house at Peter's Run near McKeesport, Pa., at 7 o'clock on Saturday night. that resulted in the killing of one detective, the serious wound- ing of another and slight wounding of-two po- licemen and a woman. The shooting is the se- quel of a bold burglary that occurred at Hom stead, Pa., oneevening. Six weeks ago a girl named Laura Hill entered Smith's jewelry store at Homestead,and began pricing various ar of jewelry. While in conversation with th girl, three men, who had forced an entrance from the rear, struck the proprietor down and bound him. The lights were then turned out and the three, with the girl, completely cleaned out the store, escaping with $8,500 in cash and jewelr; The ilkinson Detective Agency of Pitteburg was given the case and not long ‘after the girl, who is known by several names, was arrested in Harrisburg. with a suspicions lot of jewelry on her person. She was taken to the McKeesport jail and by judicious pumping confessed. Acting on her instructions Chief Detective Gilkinson, with Detective Pat Murphy aud two McKeesport policemen, drove quicily across the river to Peter's Run Satnrday night, reach- ing the house of the leader in the robbery—A. B. Budd, alias “Fitesimmons”—at about 7. Meanwhile, it is thought, the girl Hill had warned Budd, for when Gilkinson threw open the door Budd stood in the lower room appar- ently changing his clothes. The moment Budd saw Gilkinson he threw up a revolver aud fired, the bullet entering Gilkiuson’s forehead, killing him instant}; Detective Murphy leap wd over the prostrate form in the door, and, facing Budd, a terrible duel at short range in the smoke-Jarkened room followed. Budd emptied oe revolver, und his wife, who was in the room, ran to his ride with another. Murphy, thougW’ bedly wounded, had abo, eimptied his’ pistol, an; stooping 10 the dead body of his chief, drew his revolver and renewed the firing He was shooting blindly into the smoke, how- ever, while the burglar centerca all his shots toward the door. Suddenly.n woman sercamed, and, with acurse, Budd planted a bullet in Murphy's breast, and ho fell buck over Gilkin- son's body. panic that seized the new policemen at this second loss to their ranks, Budd threw some clothes over his arm and es- caped. A review of the room showed the place to be a pepper box of holes, bullets having struck in able. pl Gilkinson was dead. urphy was shot in the forehead, chin and . though not fatally, while the woman re- ceived a shot in the arm. The two policemen were slightly wounded by the flying bullets ‘The woman was taken to jail, while telegrams were sent all over three states to intercept Budd, who is deseribed as five feet five inches in height, dark complexion and eyes, and weighing only 100 pounds. He ina noted crook, and at the time was wanted for a previ- ous burglary. FITZSIMMONS CAPTURED. Fitzsimmons was captured in Braddock, near Pittsburg, last night at 9 o'clock. It was sus- pected he would visit a house at the corner of 4th and Ann streets, oceupicd by a Mrs. Clark, end officers watched the place all day. ‘hey were rewarded by seeing the man coolly veut himself near the window, while Mrs. Clark dresved an ugly wound in his shoulder, ev1- dently received during the fight. At 8 o'clock the pation: watchers saw the rear door open and ina moment Andrews was cornered in au outhouse. He was dogged and evidently in- tended to fight hard, as he held a cocked re- volver in his hand. Hix paintul wound, coupled with four revolvers staring him in'the face, soon cowed the murderer and he is now in jail! — THE GKEAT BOAT RACE, Choice of Positions Gave Oxford the Vic- tory. Acable to the New York Sun from London says of the great university boat race Satur- day “From Barnes Cambridge hud ali the worst of the luck. Thence to the winning post, nearly @ mile, the river makes one great bend. Oxford, having wor the toss, had the inner station, and thus Cambridge had to travel a greater distance on the more extended eurve. Oxford forged ahead a few inches at a time, every ma: in the boat pulling his fuli weight. Cambridge an- swered by spurtatter spurt, and drew their boat up until nearly level again. ‘There was an oc- casional splash now from the light blues, but it was their grand expiring effort. Oxford passed the winning post about one-third of a boat's length in advance. The angle of the river, however, led the Cantabs to believe that the had won'and when the pistol was fired the stopped. With the choice of stations in he! favor Cambridge would today have won. N better race has ever been or ever will be sec! on the Thames. The time, 21 minutes 48 pec- onds, was good, considering that the tide was sluggish and there was ar adverse wind the whole distance.” seme Carter Harrison Assaults “Mike” McDonald. Ex-Mayor Carter Harrison of Chicago as- saulted his former ally, MeDonald, who isknown as the millionaire gambler, on Fri- day. ‘Thetwo have been on bad terms for some time. In a row at a primary struck MeDonald on the bead with his cane. McDonald was armed and it was feared he wouldkill Harrison, who, though nearly seventy years of age. isa fighter, but the ex-mayor's friends rallied around him and forced’ Me- Donald and his adherents to retire. eee Gov. Bulkley Breaks Down a Door. When Gov. Bulkley of Connecticut reache: the capitol at Hartford on Saturday he found the aute room connecting the executive room ith the house retiring rooms locked on the in- side. ‘This is the room that has been occupied y the special deputy sheriffs employed by the governor to hold his room and the state seals against any attempt by the democrat to se- cure possession of them. He gave up posses- sion of the room to Controller Stanb last Thurs- dey, but jnsisted that he should have the right to pass through it to gain access to the house. On finding the door locked he had Executive Clerk Rood get crowbar and the lock was soon knocked off and the door opened. The door leading from the retiring room to the house was also locked, but this was not broken open. Fatal Fall From » Rotten Railing. Wm. J. Dunne, a painter, a resident of New York city, was instantly killed last evening by the giving away of the/ rotten railing of the porch of Lang's building, St. George street, St. Augustine, Fla. He was holding a baby, which he gave to his wife, and then stepped on ta the porch to talk with a woman who Was passing in the street below. s0- Another Break in the Levee. A Vicksburg dispatch says: The levee on Watt Benjamin's plantation, known a the Old Bass levee, in East Carroll parish, twelve miles south of Lake Providence, broke yesterday morning. Levee men consider this a great disaster. The break is widening, and it is thought to be about 500 feet wide and fifteen feet deep. piicand abe a meets ease MacQueary Must Retract or Be Deposed.

The only safe way for purchasers is to insist on having the genuine article, and not allow themselves to be swindled by having plasters said to be “just as good,” or “containing superior ingredients,” imposed upon them. These are only tricks to sell inferior goods that no more compare with Atcock’s Porous Prasters than copper does with gold. One trial of Allcock’s Porous Plasters will convince the most skeptical of their merits. The eminent Henry A. Mort, Jr., Ph.D., F.C.S., late Government Chemist, says: ; “My investigation of Attcocx’s Porous Praster shows it to contain valua- ble and essential ingredients not found in any other plaster, and I find it superior to and more efficient than any other plaster.” Beware of imitations, and do not be deceived by misrepre- sentation. Ask for ALLCOCK’S, and let no solicitation or explanation induce you to accept a substitute. EDUCATIONAL. LADIES’ GOODS.

Largest } Cheapest } Best ! ‘ The Evening Star is the Oldest and most firmly estab- lished newspaper published in the District of Columbia, having won the high position it holds in the confi- dence of the people of Washington by forty years of faithful and unswerving devotion to their interests, without regard to any other influence or con- | sideration whatsoever. Tue Star is the Largest paper published in Washington, with a general equipment and printing facil- ities three-fold greater and better than and, having the full Day Reports of both the New York Associated Press and the United Press, supple- mented by an unequaled service of Exclusive Special Dispatches from al. prominent points in America and Europe, it prints more and fresher Telegraphic News than any other Washington paper can possibly sup- ply, furnishing at the same time a greater amount and better quality of Local, Domestic and General Intelli- gence, and a larger quantity and higher grade of Original and Selected Literary Miscellany than any paper in the District. -Being delivered at the homes of regular subscribers for the trifling sum of ten cents per week, THE Stan is much the Cheapest paper published in the District, quantity and quality of contents heing considered, ‘Tue Srar'’s circulation in the City of Washington is more than three times larger than that of any other newspaper, and the number of its readers more than five times as many. It is therefore in that (or even greater) proportion the Best advertising med- ium in the District. On this point there ie no ground for argument or doubt, even. It is the common testi- mony of the business community, and generally admitted. * Note This Point. ‘Tae Stax gives the exact figures of it@circul-tion every week, and cheerfully opens its books and press and delivery rooms to any person having interest in the correctness ob its statements, so that its pstrons know precisely how much publicity they are getting when they buy space in its columns.
