RIVAL TO THE CROWLEY. Frightful State of Affairs Discovered in an Irish Orphanage. Dvstix, Oct. 28.—Some startling testimony was given today at the trial of the Rev. Samuel Cotton, a rector at Carnogh, county Kildare, who was charged with criminal neglect and ill- treatment of the children in the Carnogh or- phanage. A horrible state of affairs was revealed. The agents of the children’s society during their in- vestigation found that the children of the or- phanage wereinan emaciated, filthy and ragged condition and that they were covered with parasites. The toes of one of the children, it was tes- tified to, had rotted off. Another, a girl, had been chained by the legs to a log. The Rev. Mr. Cotton was eommtied for trial, bail, however, being allowed in order to enable him to attend the synod of the diocese, of which body he is a member. ——_— ALL QUIEI IN CORK.

Senor Montt called at the State Department yesterday in company with Senor Romero, the Mexican minister, but failed to see Mr. Blaine. ‘This morning, being accompanied by Senor ‘gas | Asta-Barnaga, the charge under the old gov- ernment, and the one yet properly accredited, he was promptly admitted to the diplomatic reception room, where the conference was held with the secre- tary. Mr. Juleo Foster accompanied Senor Montt, but did not remain to the conference, andno one but the secretary and the two Chileans were present. Senor Montt was seen by @ STAR reporter at the close of the conference, but he positively declined to sperk of the matter.

Hedges, a young man, who is known as “Matinee Charlie,” said that he had not been in business since he has been smoking opium. Ho said he smoked because of the pleasure he derived from it. Witness, continuing, said that he felt no bad effects from smoking opium, except that it made him pale. Like the other witness he had never smoked in the defendant's place Charles Golway also explained the effects of smoking the drug. A white girl answering the name of Lilian Davis testified that when she went to the house on one occasion with another girl, Charlie was out and she met three Chinamen in the hall. They told . her to get out of sight and she went downstairs to Charlie's room. She got on one of the bunks and was trying to cook an opium pill, when Charlie came in.and drove her out, telling her that the police would arrest her. On one occasion a Chinaman in another part of the house gave her some opium. After other witnesses gave testimony the de- fendant was called and he said that he e- mitted bis Chinese friends to smoke opium. but that he never permitted white people to do it. He denied that any gambling was permitted in his place and said that the dominoes were kept there for pastime. Found Dead in His Room. This afternoon Jobn Hickey was found dead in his room in house corner of 5th and G streets. He had been sick a couple days and was attended by Dr. Crook. This morning about 10 o'clock Mrs. Ryan, his boarding-house keeper, served him break- fast and when she saw him about noon he com- plained of feeling bad and said that his cough annoyed hit more than anything else, An hour later he was found dead. He was on his knees and his face was buried in his cule Goceea -two years old. was eovent weston eet Mrs. Ryan said that he was a pensioner, but she did not believe he wasa member of the Grand Army. From letters found on him it is believed that he was in correspondence with number of prominent officials. He had in his » & newspaper — clip- Ping to show that ho was_a guest of Gen. 0 | Grant when the latter was President. He was always proud of that clipping, and often showed it to his friends. Coroner Patterson was notified of his death. It is not believed that the deceased had any relatives in this country. ——_— An Old Lady's Fant. Mrs. L. E. Reynolds, an aged lady sixty years old, fell down a flight of stone steps at her resi- dence, 301 M street northwest, yesterday after- noon. She was picked up in an unconscious condition by a gentleman who was pasting and carried into the house. Dr. Kingsman was called in, who found her hip fractured, her hand sprained and head badly cut. It is feared she is injured internally. a Stocking Yellowstone “Park. The experiments made by the United States fish commission in 1889 and 1890 with trout in the waters of the Yellowstone National Park have proved successful. The commission sent Prof. Evermann to the region last summer to ascertain the results of planting and has re- ceived from him s report to the effect that specimens were obtained of brook, Loch Leven, rainbow and. black-spotted trout in the stocked streams, all of them in excellent con- dition, and conveying information of the pres- ence of Von Lehr troutin Nez Perce creek. The brook and Leven trout, which were planted in 1489. wned in 1890, and some of their progeny was collected. Shoshone and Lewis lakes were stocked in the fall of 1890 with take und Loch Leven trout. The latter species were found in goodly num- bers in the mouth of Heron creek, trib- utary to Shoshone lake, and Mr. Elwood Hoter, the well-known guide in the National w trout rise in Park, Bhoshone October 7, about seventy-five yards from shore; he also di trout in Nez Perce creek October 9.

THE FLAG AND THE FAIR, A “General Field” Says Something About the Confederate Article of Bunting. The annual meeting of the Society of the Army of Northern Virginia was held iast night in the bail of the house of delegates in Rich- mond. Gen. Wm. H. Payne presided. Reso- lutions appropriate to the memory of Gen. W. H. F. Lee were adopted. A committee was ap- pointed to prepare resolutions upon the death of Gen. A. L. Long, to be reported hereafter. Among those who made brief speeches were Gens. Early,Taliaferro, Rosser and Field. The latter said: “T understand that a confederate flag cannot be unfurled at the world’s fair. If that fs the case let us now have another world’s fair in this country.” All the old officers were elected. NOT GEN. CHAS. W. FIELD. Gen. Chas. W. Field, formerly doorkeeper of the House of Representatives, said to a Stan reporter this morning that he had been greatly city for over a year. I do not sympathize with their remark in ould y way and should never have it myself It is absurd to talk w are now a united ih but one I don't ow whotte Gen. Field is who is quoted. There is a Gen. James Field in Virginia who Was attorney general of the state under Gov. Walker. I think, and was also a general | of militia, but whether hem Temark or not 1 do not know. All I want to do | 4s to emphatically disclaim it myself and any sympathy with i oe SOCIETY AT THE CAPITAL A Writer Who Sces Great Possibilities—Re- sponsibility of the Kesident Population. “Tos new comer in Washington,” says Mins L. B Halstead in an article in the North Amerie can Revie, “the social possibilities ure delight fully suggestive. Where else, indeed, in our country are so many men of diverse powers congregated? And where else do such men mingle freely in society? They are of every shade of political opinion, of course, as well as | representative of every interest in the country; for if the drawing room is hardly as yet neutral Ground it offers a certain degree of hospitality to friend snd to foe, and will do #0 with more and more cordiality as it is realized that so- ciety, like patriotiom, unites those whom poli- tica divides “To torward such harmony is to work ina ood cause, and not culy can this be done, but rue gociety can be formed which shell create and be created by a standard of taste whole- somely American. The foundation is already laid here as nowhere else in the United States for a society that shall include both sexes, the only kind worth having or that can be perma- nently maintained; a socicty that understands something of the importance of etiquette—a form of culture a3 necessary to good society as grammar is to language; a society, finally, in Which persons one would go half’ across the continent to meet, rub shoulders with the hum- blest in the cruch of « President's reception or at the house of a cubinetofticer. But what is the result? One cannot deny that as yet it is entirely inadequate. Society as an end does not pro- duce results commensurate with the means em- ployed, and society asa means is not society in in the true sense at ali, It is, like any other transitory gathering at a theater or hotel, with- out cohesion or significance. It gives birth to no esprit de corps, and failing in this any or- ganization lacks persistence and loyal e individual simply loses bis individuality and is merged in the mass, which becomes like « mush of grapes that have lost their wholeness as fruit and have not yet become wine. “At present, whatever lasts beyond the day of an entertainment is almost wholly of an utili- tarian character. People must do this and that in order not to offend, in order to propitiate, in order to gain votes for the party or influence for a cause, or what not, that utilizes society for some other end than its own; whereas so- ciety should be the artistic product of a dis- criminating people through the means of refined companionship. “This does not at all signify an attempt to imitate the French salon. One might as well try to reviv» the megatherium. The salon as France had it was a product of the times, which have changed in almost every detail since then. What America needs is a form of society that | shall attract and preserve the best social mate- rial. Of course the form must be democratic, for thats the spirit of our age and people; but to be democratic does not signify that all men are alike either by nature or culture. Society can- not regard them, as the ballot does, solely from the standpoint of quantity; it must take cog- nizance also of quality.” Regarding the social reforms Miss Halstead has in view, she sa: rests with the resident “The responsibility pulation of the capital. The society of official life is necessarily superficial and impotent to make distinctions. It cannot choose wom it willexclude or receive, for officials are not only public servants, but are looked upon as ablic property. Moreover, they are here to- jay and at the autipodes tomorrow, and can, therefore, have no adequate esprit de cor] “If then a dozen or twenty houschzids, already well established, and posscstors of both courage and a discriminating social taste, would form a league as quietly as might be to choose carefully whom they would invite and whom they would ignore, being guided solely by the motive of establishing a worthy social nucleus in the capital of the nation, they would create a permanent good, capable of growth and of incalculable refining and puri- tying influence on the future of the republic. 11 should base itself on 4 sound simplicity, so far as material things are concerned, in order that expense need be of little moment, and on an acute social sense of the congeniality’of indi- viduals and the temper of a gathering as a whole. It ix said that in regard to eloquence the taste of the house of commons is higher than that of the man of greatest taste within it, So it is with eociety. The refinement of attrition with equal minds, the wisdom that re- sults from the blending of knowledge, the grace that comes from universal courtesy, and the easy assurance of those not afraid of com- mitting a blunder—these are some of the guins such a social form would give to those capable of entering it. For it should not be exclusive except of what would destroy it. It should be inelusive of all the good in the stream of peo- ple constantly flowing through the country. And ‘what a stream this is to draw from! No other city offers us such advantages.” News of the Day a Century Ago. ‘From the Londop Daily News. An industrions and amusing writer, M.
