The whole location represented by the beach here shown as graded in front of the dreasing houses is now covered many feet deep with » mixture of clay and sand in very rough piles, just as it was dumped in scoop loads by the dredge. The dcst thing to be done is to grade this region t» a slant about one foot in ten, from fifty feet out of water to fifty feet under water at low tide, for a distance of 500 feet, which this cut is intended to represent along the shore.

PROPOSED KEGULATIONS. It has been planned to furnish the colored people with two houses and a wharf at one end of the beach exactly like the two houses and wharf provided for white people at the other end of the beach, and in order that decorum and good feeling may be maintained insisted upon by the policemen in that each color shall keep to themselves and not in any way interfere with the rightsand privi- leges of the other. All who come to bathe will be expected to provide themselves with « neat and respectable suit covering the body in the manner usual to bathing costumes. Boys will not be permitted to clothe themselves in old rags, as some did two years ago here. The cost of a bathing suit is so very little that these matters of propriety will be insisted u; It is desirable to conduct the management of the beach in a manner to insure tho freest enjoy- ment toall well-disposed and orderly persons. It is ted that ladies and gentlemen all over the city form themselves into little com- ies of congenial friends and go to the beach En" companies, who may enjoy one another's society, and'it is expected that every one will yield a little good humoredly for the ‘general comfort of all. the same time, if any are disposed to crowd or act the bully, or themselves disagreeable, the policeman will have orders to stop it at once. Itseemsto be a universally conceded fact that such a bathing beach may be made a t source of enjoyment, conducive to the Health of all classcs, if all’ will, behave them- selves properly. The policemen in charge will soon become acquainted with truant boys and some reasonable limit of time will be set during which they may be permitted to occupy the beach. When all gete to running ‘smoothly some system will be established for assisting to learn to swim and to teach the stronger ones how to save a drowning person. HOW THE BEACH 18 TO BE MADE. ‘Then the whole surface is to be covered about nine inchesdeep with heavy coarse sand, both out of the water and in water, thus giving s perfectly solid bottom which will not mire when Walked upon under water nor sink very much where it is dry along the shore. The experi- ment which was tried by the Bathing Beach Association on a small portion of this locality for two years has proved that this earth so cov- ered may be relied upon. The water of this basin comes in from the Potomac river through an inlet now only about 100 feet wide and there isno sewer anywhere emptying into it or emptying into the Potomac near enough to it tocontaminate the water. The water is gen- erally less muddy than the river itself, because, there being no current, it has» better oppor- tunity to become settled. At the points selected for the beach there is no undertow and no current whatever to endanger even children in bathing. It is in- tended to be so evenly graded that any person may wade neck deep at the lowest tide before weaching the ed; the sand and without com- Ing to any pithole or stepping-off place. It is intended to build two houses at each end of the beach, each house having thirty-two com; tents and suitably isolated outhouses. It is also intended to build two wharves, slanted off at euch side like stairs, and whatever may be the condition of the tide there will always be Stairs to sit upon or walk upon both under wa- ter and out of water, so that the most timid may always have something to rely upon. It ieaee intended to provide each = rt with a spring board for the use of expert swimmers. It ix hoped that eventually the terrace will be walled all the way round at such a slant as any one could climb up on, but stairs will be provided by which to reach each wharf. In ‘Trouble in This Family. A young colored man named William Turner was tried in the Police Court yesterday on » charge of larceny. He was charged with having stolen a revolver from his father’s house. “My son’sa man of family,” said Mr. Turner, sr., “but he lives in my house because he has ce to live.” mate. = peace his mother, “and I hate to tel! about his doings.” ‘ ‘The proof did not prove that his doings were wrong and Judge Kimball discharged him. ‘The prisoner's father turned to the court and Digging for a Diamond Stud. Detectives Mattingly and Gallaher arrested a boy named Herbert Woodson for the theft of a $300 diamond stud, the property of Prof. George H. Lillibridge, and the boy told a story that led to considerable digging and hunting by the officers and a hired man. It appears that Prof. Lillibridge left the diamond in his overcoat pocket and the gar- ment was left hanging in the hallway. The boy was sent to the house with a note, and while the note was being taken to the professor he was left standing in the hall. His be | eight it will be | ™' story was that he put the diamond in a rat hole in an alley and the concrete has been torn up, but no diamond has been recovered. The boy is held until the matter can be fur- ther investigated. Nie OE id: “SsJedge, I wish you would give, him his y from my house.” e ia to live in peace and harmony.” Sees Stabbed a Barkeeper. Robert Pierce, a young colored man who tends bar in a 7th street saloon, was on duty Thursday night when » negro tough named Thomas Duvall entered and called for « drink. He was under the influence of liquor, and Pierce refused tofurnish him anything to drink. Duvall, however, insisted on being furnished something to drink, and the repeated refusal of the bartender was answered by profane and threatening language, and Davall ended quarrel by stabbing Pierce in the stomach with a knife. He then left the saloon and escaped Picrco wont to the Emergency Hospital a His Story Not Probable. Charles Franz, a young man who has not yet attained his majority, was arrested and taken to the Police Court yesterday ona charge of em- Dezzling a horse that belonged to his father. When the father reached the office of Prose- cuting Attorney Mullowney he did not desire to vute his son and requested that the case Betnolle prossed. ‘The prosecuting attorney agreed to settle the case, as the father wanted him to, and sent for ‘the young man to have a talk with him. The latter, when asked to explain his con- duct, said that he took the horse out and that the ‘animal became very vicious and toward him with its mouth open. His story was that he shot at the animal and frightened it so badly that it ran away, and he dec! ‘that he did not see it in. The quceematen aeibiedl the truth of the story and the young man became so incensed that he made use of language which, if carried into effect, will end in somebody's getting whi ois groniniter then changed his mind about entering a nolle pros in the case and continued it until Wonday to give the young man time for reflection, but later in the day he entered the nolle pros and the defepdant was discharged. psc cored ‘Was the Wrong Party Vindicated?

Some of the Characteristics of the Insect Which Defies Man. From the Chicago Herald. ‘The fly has some advantages over = man. For instance, he has » pair of double com- Pound eyes and with them he can see in any direction or in all directions at once without for an instant turning his head. These eyes have 4,000 distinct facets and all of them have direct communication with the brain; so that if aman comes along on one side of him and « lump of sugar on the other, he will be able to watch both of them and stay for the sugar so long as it is safe on account of the man.

She knows fall well that there she will meet with sundry customers given to missing ten-minute-to-six suburban trains—liberal-minded gentlemen who, after an ‘evening whisky-and-water, will always ready to make small Presents in the way of gloves, or flowers, or strawberries, or what not. And this is why bar life is so attractive that it is recruited from girls who have been in the millinery line or boot closing, and trust to their good looks. aid has by far the most favor- able chances of success in the matrimonial market. At the leading refreshment bars in London it is surprising to learn the number of girls who marry men, sometimes middle-aged, sometimes very young, and sometimes very elderly, and more often’ so than not, who are rfectly capable of giving them a comfortable ome OF even handsome settlements. But now in comes a young woman dressed in respectable black. She has joined the profes- sion with an ambition far beyond that of ac- cepting orders for the play, or flowers, or pairs of gloves, or sundry small personal ornaments. She accepts her situation’ only as a stepping- stone to betier fortune, and knows very weil indeed that her position there can never lead her to more than £45 s year. She may obtain & depaty manageress’ position at a theater bar at 18 shillings a. week. ven this is as nothing compared with the alternative of a marriage, or, indefault, £500 for breach of Promise. early As to the class of girls from which the bar- maids of London are principally drawn, it is —* families which have been in the “ for generation upon generation. are by no means most popular with their employers. Their knowledge of trade customs is o ‘many respects a great deal too accurate. “Rests” in the day are duly insisted upon; all bar clean- ing must be left to the potman; Sunday even- ings must never be overlooked, and nothin; under aten days’ holiday at the seaside wi satisfy. And all the time, be it understood, putting aside the market value of shrewdness and quickness, there is really very little tech- nical knowledge required in the bar trade. A memory for positions of thi and readiness at reckoning are, after all, qualities to be met with in most girls in other ways of life. Of course, you are told the hours are long—say from half-past 8 in the morning until 12 at night. But then, be it remembered, the barm: has at all times good, substantial meals, far better than are given to the assistant at the draper's. Drapers (though why 80 you are not told) are close folk, while publicans, especially sporting publicans, are generally frechanded. And even if the hours are long it must be borne ir mind that | & bar work is far from being monotonous. Some- thing fs alwaye going forward: thors is always something to enliven, though occasionally it might, perchance, be Just as well left alone. As to the future—the middle age or the old ago of women in other callings. Good looks and youth have their value everywhere, and espe- cially in the present day. A few years ago, you are told, in respectable old businesses, 8 staid-looking woman verging or middle age was preferred tos looking, smart girl. The a respectable house. was sufficient in itself to draw custom. Nowadays such houses are never supposed to possess any special at- n. Asto,the temptations befalling the bar girl, are but little greater than those to be met with by any kind of shop girl. The barmaid, too, “always knows her way about” better than other girls, so if she makes a slip it is really her own fault. Possibly the worst feature of bar life is — = as [ces ra ae is sup- posed to, itthoroughly unfits a girl for tekin ‘Up an} ‘else.

Yet ing the number of girls engaged ey e number of youths themselves for barmaids, is, also, after all, very limited. The modern would-be young man about town is a shrewd and careful person, who can,as a rule, take care of himself, and has the sense to keep his hands from his master's till or petty cash. His gifts are gen- i a pair of not too expensive gloves or a yellow rose which can be bought fora few pence. The barmaid may be a siren, but still is far from beings very dangerous one. Owing to the increase in the practice of day nipping there is much less time for flirtation over bar than there used to be. So, although constitutions are more often injured by constant indulgence in indifferent liquor, fewer families, v0 you are told, are upset by sudden marriages with the attractive young person behind the long, range of colored glass and glittering electro.
