Poarley relating to the cleaning of streets. He says that people read of the city of Berlin as the cleanest city in the world, and that it goes on the policy that the cheapest method of cleaning the streets is not to let them get dirty, and accordingly has gangs of boys constantly going about with brush and pan during the day, while at night machine brushes sweep up and carry away the residue. This, he says, is a contrast. Here scores of carts hauling from different excavations are Permitted, in violation of law, to litter our costly roadways. The carts haul from their and claim their py for removal, but they leposit on the beautiful streets of the city in- stead of on the dumping grounds, rendering crossings impassable not only at the expense of fouling feet, dresses, &c., but they are per- mitted to rob the taxpayer to gratify their self- ishness. Asan example, he says from N street to O street northwest. thence along O street in front of the High School to the dump the en- tire distance is littered in defiance of and to the disgrace of official authority. This, he says, is but one in a hundred cases. The remedy he suggests is to order the chief of police to have arrested owners of every cart that drops dirt or filth on the roadways—vide Shepherd. board of public works and all En- ropean cities—and dozen cases of punish- ment per annum relieves the city of half the filth dropped on the roadways of disgrace-in eyes of visitors, while the certainty of punish- ment for one class of offenders exercises a healthy influence over similar characters in all localities. Commissioner Douglass, who has —— of street sweeping, has the matter in — ee THE JUNK DEALERS’ CASES, Judge Kimball Overrules the Motion for a Jury Trial. Before Judge Kimball in the Police Court yes- terday the case of second-hand dealers charged with violating the recent law was heard on the motion of Mr. Cook for a trial by jury. The District claims that the case is within the juris- diction of the court without a jury. Mr. Cook claimed that the penalty was.a pecuniary one | only and there was uo authority conferred for imprisonment in default of the fine. Judge Kimball said that the court had power to enforce its sentence—to carry out its decrees. In these cases he could not impose a fine and imprisonment, but if the fine is not paid imprisonment can be imposed. Mr. Cook said that the moment the imprison- ment was impoved the case came within the class entitled to trial by jury. It was the act posing imprisonment (the law providing risonment for thirty days or more”) which made the cases one for « fur Jadge Kimball said he would overrule the motions. —— ALEXANDEIA, FTE GRADES AND DRAINAGES. The subject of an engineer and a general sys- tem of grades for the ungraded streets has been given the “go by” for the present, and the matter was not taken up at the last meet- iug of the city council. In one case, where Messrs. Smith and Brent asked that grades be furnished for Princess street at Pitt and Royal streets, the city surveyor has been instructed to give a grade conforming to the natural con- dition now existing. street at this point is an embankment across the marsh which takes the place of Oronoko creek, and the neglect in years past to “con- form to the natural conditions” has led to most of the engineoring difticulties in that section. The street commissioners and surveyors of other days, instead of allowing the natural drainage its natural fow, as has been done on the south side of the town in Tauhorse drain from Henry street southeast, undertook to change the course of Oronoko creek. which drained half the city and ran from King and Pitt streets northeast to the river. The result hasbeen that at a cost greater than would have made a sewer by covering in the old creek from Pitt and King streets on a iine northeast to Lee and Pendleton streets, an attempt first at sur- face drainage and then by a partial sewer has led to a muddle. ‘TRE UNIVERSITY EXAMINATION. ‘The local examination of the University of Virginia for Alexandria was opened yesterday by Examiner O'Brien of tho university at St. John's cadets study rooms.

The last proposal made to the board of trade for the planting of additional manufactures here is that of the Canal Furniture Works of Dover, Ohio. The president, Mr. Dies, pro- to remove here a plant with « capital of ‘over $100,000 and to employ 100 or more men if the city will give him the Pioneer mills prop- erty or the American wharf property and ,000.

Senator Blair's dispatch from Secretary Blaine is not in the nature of a recall. It simply re- quests the Senator to postpone his journey and to leave for Washington at once for a confer- ence. He left Chicago via the Baltimore and Ohio limited yesterday afternoon and will have terview with Mr. Blaine on Saturday morn- ing. He is not at all disturbed about the latest de- velopments, but says that the Chinese govern- ment has made the mistake of endeavoring to judge his views and opinions with press clippings as material, instead of taking the Congressional Record.

Or, Rather, There Are Now Two of the FORMAL TRANSFER OF DUNK, PRESENTED BY MR. COOPER—ANOTHER, GOLD DUST, ALLOWED TO ACCOMPANT HIM AND REMAIN DURING THE SUMMER—FROM THE CIRCUS TO THE PaRk. The board of regents of thé Smithsonian In- stitution, in whose charge lies the care of the Zoological Park, now have an elephant on their hands. To be more exact, they have two. This Dank, the big elephant that Mr. Jas. E. Cooper, the proprietor of Forepaugh's cireus, presented to the government for the use of the 00, spent last night in his new quarters at the park. left behind to keep him from being lonesome in his new home. Gold Dust will spend the summer in Washington as an honored guest at the park. He will probably be claimed again in the fall or coming spring. for while Dunk has been given outright, Gold Dust has only been loaned temporarily. Ever since the statement was first made pub- lic that Mr. —— bad decided to t the zoo with an elephant the coming of the pachy- | derm was watched for with the greatest interest, and at the circus Dunk, who occapied a promi- nent position at the end of the herd nearest the entrance, was the center of an admuring throng. He wore spread out over his great broad backs white canvas cloth, on which was emblazoned the statement that he was the one that had been selected to spend the rest of his days in ce and quiet at the nation’s capital. His Seys in a tont and his nights spent ina crowded ear hurrying on to the next show town are now relegated to the category of things that have been but are not. ‘THE FORMAL TRANSFER OF DUNK. Yesterday afternoon while the show was going on in the great ring tent end the ring masters weré cracking their whips and the clowns their jokes an almost equally interest- ing scene was being enacted under the great stretch of canvas that covered the menagerie. ‘The big herd of elephante were in their accus- tomed place in the center of the tent with Dunk at one end, idly swinging his trunk and looking around to see if perchance there might be stray peanut eee 4m the noise and confusion pi ow. In ability he did uot know that it was his last ap- pearance with Forepaugh’s. Near by stood a hittle group of men whose interest for the time was centered in Dunk and for whom the rest of the circus had no attrac- tion. It was made up of Mr. Cooper, Mr. G. ©. Starr and others of his assistantsin the busi- ness: Dr. Frank Baker, the acting manager of the Zoological Park; Mr. A. B. Baker, the property clerk; Mr. W. H. Blackburne, the jead keeper of the animals at the park, and a Stan reporter. who was on hand to stay with the procession until the transfer should be made. Capt. Densmore of the White House was present as an interested spectator of the proceedings and later on Senator Morrill and | Secretary Langley of the Smithsonian joined | the party for a few moments. During the con- versation that took place some oue remarked that would be very elephant in Cooper generously remedy that trou- le by lending another elephant for the sum mer to keep him company. The offer w gladly accepted by Dr. Baker, and Gold Dust, smaller animal, was picked out as being best suited for the purpose. Fortunate is the man who can take from his belonginj the new acquisition as the only fr. his needs. Mr. Cooper ex) interest in the new zoo an rangements could be made he glad to winter a large part of his m there at the close of the present season. A START FOR THE zoo. About 3:30 o'clock it was decided that every- thing was ready for the start to be made. The foot chains were removed from Dunk anda great ox chain passed around his neck. Ina few minutes he was yoked up short by the neck |toGold Dust and Bazil, an animal who was selected to go out with the other two to keep them in a good humor. Bazil is a young mou: tain in size, but is noted for wonderful sweetness of her disposition. | Dunk, who was one of the largest elephants in the herd, is still in the prime of youth, be- ing, it is supposed, about twenty-six years of ge. This is on the supposition that he was | five years old when first captured, for he has | been in the show business for twenty-one years | past. He weighs in the neighborhood of four tons. He is in every way a fine specimen, the only objection to him being that he and Dic! another one of the big fellows, ¢ # lon standing grudge and have always made trouble every chance they could get. It was thought that they would both get along better if ti were separated from each other, and the 200 fo the gainer by the feud. “Steady, now, Dunk; steady there, Gold Dust,” said Mr. Patey Meagher, the head ele- phant keeper of the circus. He was the master of ceremonies. “Now, go ahead there,” and the three ungainly brutes started for the further end of the tent, where a big opening was quickly made for them. Before emerging Trom the grounds « brief halt was made while a photographer took couple of pictures of the motley group, men and ai ‘bunched together, with the big tent for a background. ORDER OF THE PROCESSION. Then the procession started on its long march out to the zoo. First came Head Keeper Black- burne, Mr. Frank Kellogg and Mr. Wm. Moore of the circus staff and Tux Star reporter, all on horseback. ‘Then came Mr. A. B. Baker and Mr. Richard Sweeny in the light wagon that be- longs to the park, and last. but by no means the least, came the three elephants, with Dunk in the place of honor on the left. Patsy Meagher rode bewide his charges mounted on a big white cireus horse. He had with him « couple of as- sistants who traveled on foot. It was quite a procession that attended the first animals that should enter the new park to stay there. All that was needed wasn brass band anda painted wagon to make it » real circus parade, and in fact it attracted almost as much attention all slong the route, Big crowds of small boys of every color follow the procession all the way out to the park. ‘The fact that there were three ele stead of one, as had been expected, to no end of comment from the smail boys and from the older people as well, who were quite as interested spectators, although they did not follow on as far. ‘The men on horseback at the bead of the calvacade kept a block or two ahead to warn all drivers. that there were three elephants coming and they had best turn down the side streets, for there are not many things in this world that will frighten a horse as much as the sight or smell of an elephant.

The steeplechase excited a good deal of interest. Vancluse fell at the last hurdle and his rider was badly shaken up.
