THE NEW POLICE STATION. Georgetown Will Have as Completely Ar- ranged Building as Any in the District. Yesterday afternoon a Sran reporter. piloted by Sergt Haney. made a tour of inspection through the rooms of the handsomest station in the District of Columbia. On the south side of Q street adjoining the pump house it stands, a three-story press-brick front structure, with w frontage of twenty-seven and a depth of ninety feet. The stars and stripes float over it| Entering throngh the front door the first thing that mects the eye is a platform sur- rounded partly by a delicate railing of neat design. On this elevation the clerk's desk will be located, and in front of the tailing the prisoner will stand while he is questioned as to his name, place of birth, océupation, &c. Close by the lieutenant will have his private room and one of consultation is just across the hall. A lounging rcom for the officers, where they may read and engage in conversation when off duty, has been provided. Baths and basins aro on every floor. In the large room the office half the privates will sleep, while immediately above them the balance will when tired and not on duty. By this separation of the platoons only the necessary meo will be disturbed when it comes their time to turn out. In the old station the turning ont of two men generally awakened the whole sleeping force. Two rooms, one for male and one forfemale witnesses, are provided for. The sergeants of the precinct will occupy a different room from the priv: In the rear of the building on an upper floor are the roows for night lodgers. These may and will be entered Ly @ side staircase. The gYmuaxium room is the largest and brightest in the whole building. Windows let the sun- shine in throngh three sides. The officers are in possession of a number of athietic instru- ments, and the inviting room when fixed up will be well patronized. Out of the gymna- sium fund and at Detective Burrows’ sugges- tion forty-three pictures have been purchased, costing about #40. For the benefit of noisy and uncompanionable prisoners = dungeon cell bas been prepared in the basement. The morgue, which is on the ground floor in the back of the building, is alarge bare room unplastered and unfloored, and as cold and dreary looking as some of the bodies which will find a temporary resting place there. To the weet of the pump house is an inclined road, which winds around the water forces and leads to the rear of the station. By this means the death-bearing wagon will wpprosch the door leading into the morgue. Over $19,000 hus been spent on the new structure and atill there are a few conveniences needed. Hot air will be used to keep the place comfortable in cold weather. Ventilating shafts distributed ihronghout the station will carry off the im- pure air. In the region of the cells it is all tire proof and as solidly built as it possibly could be. Inaday or two the contractor will turn the building over to the District. saab inal ss MK. KIIS' LECTURE, He Talks Interestingly Upon “How the Other Half Lives.” Mr. J. A. Riis of New York, who gave suchan interesting lecture before the convention of Christian workers in this city some time ago on “How the Uther Haif Lives,” lectured again on the same subject last evening at the Church of Our Father. It was for the benefit of the News- boys’ and Children’s Aid Society, and called out an audience that wae gratifying in ite size. Mr. Riis has been for years police reporter on the New York Sun, and in the pursuit of his calling has becomo familiar with the poverty and degradation that exist in the metropolis. Tois was the subject of his lecture, and with a stereopticon to present the photographs he bas cen himeelf, he acted as guide for his hearers tour through the haunts of vice and misery in the aluma {twas not to satisfy a morbid uriosity that be did this. Mr. Riisisau earnest Christian worker, and he endeavors by every possible means to call the attention of one-baif of the world tothe condition of the other and less fortunate half. ——_—_ ‘To Preserve the Mounds. To the Editor of The Evening Star: It is pleasant to notice the increasing taste for whatever pertains to early American his- tory and archwology. Saturday's issue of Tur Stam contained no less than four distinct articles on recent discovery and monuments connected with prehistoric America. The most important of these concerns the mound at Grave End, now Moundsville, W. Va. ‘The article refers "to the tened destruction of that most interesting and commanding monu- ment of early America in the upper Ohio val tey. As the article is incomplete permit me to say something concerning the mound. Grave creek (named from the great tumulus and surrounding smaller mounds), isan interest- ing locality on the Obio river in Marshall county, W. Va, Here Joseph Tomlinson, from the upper Potomac, settled in 1770. He was racted by the fertile alluvial, comprising about 4,000 acres, and lying in a crescent- shaped plateau upon the beautiful Ohio. Here he made bis home, and here himself and scores of his descendants lie buried. | ‘The extensive system of works constituting the home of early man on the Ohio comprised mounds, circumvallations, alignments, &c. Principal of the system was the “Mammoth mound,” so called by early explorers. This | conspicuous monument stands upon the second | terrace and rises to the height of nearly sev- enty feet, with a base circumference of 20 fect, Itis the largest, most symmetrical and imteresting mound in the Olio valley. This mound and surrounding system of earthworks early attracted the attention of pioneers, ex- plorers and scientists. In 1538 the proprictors sought to examine and determine its true char- acter and contents. An excavation was made at the nortbern base to the center—I111 feet— and s shaft carried from summit to drift. These were bricked. Many interesting <is- coveries were made—two soparate chambers in which had been deposited two bodies in the lower and one in the upper, with a variety of personal ornamentsandimplements. The latter | jonstitutes interesting features, typifying the | rogress of the race who built the mound. In the upper or later built chamber were found copper ornaments, an inscribed stone, &c. The tablet is small, bearing twenty- two ebaracters and one ‘idrographic sign. This is the mound referred to in the article You Published as threatened with destruction. ja OUr utilitarian age thousands of interesting pre-historic monuments throughout the west and south have been consigned to irretrievable destruction. A spirit of vandalism has swept over the great valleys of the west and effaced countless works of ancient art and industry. The sites of Cincinnati, Columbus, Circleville, St. Louis and hundreds of other’ places were once adorned with monuments of early man. Itis a reproach to our civilization that this condition of things should exist. It should be checked at ouce. The West Virginia Historical and Antiquarian Society is making an effort to save the Grave Creek mound. All who feel an interest in our pre-historic past should warm; support this, movement and cordiall respond to the call of the society. W. Dell ——_ Against » Pension Bill for Clerks.

An Enthusiastic Keception Given Him by the Ohio Republican Association. Last evening was a gala occasion in the his- tory of the Obio Republican Association. The members of that prosperous organization were out to do houor toan illustrious fellow member of the buckeye state, and National Rifles’ Armory, the scene of the meeting. wns filled from stage togaliery, and many were compelled to stand throughout the entire evening. There were pretty girls by the hundred; there way an immense amount of enthusiasm, and this was further increased by a section of the Marine Band that was stationed in the gallery and played patriotic airs at intervals during the evoning. The occasion of all this was a reception tendered to Senator John Sherman in honor of his sixth election to the United States Senate. Tt was intended asa reception, but in point of fact it amounted to an ov: | was most delightful event. Several hundred Jinvitations had been sent out, and even the | threatening weather could not prevent a crowd | from gathering todo honor to the man they admire and respect. The decorations that filled the hall on the occasion of the charity ball were allowed to remain, and the walls the arch above the stage were completely hid- den from view by flags and bunting, and the Stage was also hing with colored bunting and arranged asa drawing room, with chairs for the guests of the evening and the officers of the association. AUDITOR COULTER'S REMARKS. The gathering was called to order by Sixth Anditor Thomas B. Coniter, the president of the essociation. In his opening remarks Mr. Coulter said: “We are all proud of the chief exceutive of our nation, who is » native of Ohio, the taan who is possessed of patriotism enough to protect the American flag the world over. Weare proud of the Fosters, MeKinleys and Forakers, And this is an occasion for ehow- ing our pride of Sherman, whose name isa synonym for honest money ” Assistant Postmaster General Whitfeld fol- lowed in the main address of welcome. It was an eloquent and graceful tribute to the Ohio statesman, who. he said, had been identified with every great question of interest to the nation for the past thirty years. “With McKinley at home,” said Gen. Whit- field, “backed by a republican legislature, with Sherman end Foster here, the opportunitics to undo the infamous gerrymander perpetrated in our state two yearsagoare many.” ‘Theu,turn- ing to Mr. Sherman, the speaker welcomed him in the name of the Ohio Republican Association BENATOR SHEBMAN'S REPLY. As Mr. Sherman rose to bis feet to reply he was grected with enthusiastic and prolonged applause. He began by deprecating the praise and commendation that had been heaped upon him, and said that no man was ever worthy of unlimited praise. Mr. Sherman spoke most entertainly. and, after reviewing the circumstances that led up to his first appearance in,Washington, “I never dreamed ix: those days of becoming Senator. 1 was satisficd in trying to establish myself asa lawyer. I got into polities, how- ever, and did what I could to advance the cause that led to our civil war, and the people kept me in the civil service during that greut strug- gle. Isympathize with the men or the south, who thought they were right. ‘Thank Gos, our southern brothers now appear with us and that all have equal rights before the law. Lin- coln will be regarded asa type of manhood as long as Washington is remembered by the peo- ple, and Chase and Seward will be looked upon as heroes in the administration of Mr. Lin- coin.” POSTMASTER GENERAL WANAMAKES. Postmaster General Wanamaker, who had entered the hall earlier in the evening with Senator Sherman and sat with him throughout the reception, was the next speaker. He paid a glowing tribute to the ability of Senator Sher- men and in conclusion said: “1 see by this gathering that Sherman has the women with him, and [ understand why he comes so often to thé Senate. ‘The women of Ohiohave taught their children to vote for him. ‘Ihey point him out as the grand old man. who is to this country what Gladstone is to the nation across the sea.” Brief addresses wore also made by Repre- sontative M. B. Harter of Ohio,gHou: Jon R. Lynch of Mississipp:, Assistant Secretary Crounsé of Nebraska, ex-Governor Fletcher of Missouri, Congressman W. H. inos of Ohio, Congressman William Stoue of Pennsylvania Representative Walker of Massachusetts and Robert Doane of Ohio. ‘THE COMMITTEES.

In regard to the statement that the officials of the New York Base Ball Club had received letter from “Danny” Richardson. in which he said ‘I will play ball in New York or nowhere,” President Young of the National Base Ball League suys: “The committee appointed at the late meetinig of the Jeague to apportion the dif- ferent players tothe league clubs awarded Richardson to Washington. This was done for the reason that the new owners of the Wash- ington club had a personal contract with the player for a period of three years. It matters not where he plays or if he plays at all so long ashe hes the consent of bis employes.

Cornell University boasted @ crew last year that was the fastest ever seen at New London. They broke the record for three miles and rowed the last quarter in perfect form. Of last year's crew six of the men have presented themselves as candidates for their old seats, and four of last year's freshman crow, who were substitutes on the regular crew, are also anxious to secure permanent seats in the boat. ‘Teniner Charlie Courtney ha the men in charge for the past month, and promises to pick his crew in a short time, For the eight places in the freshman boat there are fifty-two candidates, and Courtney will proceed to weed out the weak men. The ‘varsity crew will be evory second as fast as last year. How much more sportsmanlike it would be for Harvard and Yule to row a good crew as the Corneli men have proven themselves to be. What a splendid sight it would be to witness a race that had as contesting crews Harvard, Yale, Corneil, Columbia, University of Penn- sylvania, Princeton end Bowdoin! The result of such @ race would settle the question of which was the best crew and satisfy all colleges. Base Ball Notes. Harry Stevens has the score card privileges at Pittsburg, Washington and Columbus, and is worthy of the title, “The Score Card King.” President von der Horst has sent a letter to each Baltimore player asking him to report about March 21, and dirccting him to get in good condition before that time. Catcher McGuire of the Washington club is the relict of the old Philadelphia battery, Casey and McGuire. The former has about given up the business. He was great pitcher once, but with # faint heart. Glenalvin, who it will be remembered filled Pfeffer's shoes on the Chicago team during the zotherhood fight, leads the Pacific Const As- sociation in batting, and Dooley, who was the same season on the local team, leads the field- inj Bunion of Chicago, although a young player, is of the kind who will not take any advice, and, through snubbing older players who gave him a tip in the kindliest way, became the most un- popular man inthe team.

Republicans to Re Confronted by a Combined ‘Opposition DEMOCRATS, IT 18 SAID, WILL SUPPORT THR STATE TICKET OF THE PEOPLE'S PARTY IX RETURS OF ‘TRE OTHER's SUPPORT OF THE DEMOCRATIC PRESIDENTIAL TICKET—VIEWS OF J. 0. WooD. ‘Special Correspondence of The Evening Star. Torexa, Kan., Jan. 28, 1892. ‘There ie no longer any doubt that the repub- licans will be confronted by s combined oppo- sition in Kansas this year. Orders have been iswaed from headquarters. Senators Gorman, Hill and Brice conceived the idea and it will be carried out. They have accomplished more than this, They have caused the leaders of the two democratic factions in Kansas to compro- mise their differences and “get together” on the fasion proposition. The people's party is | to have the support of democrats for its stato ticket, while the deraoerats are to be given the | Professor Koch's inboratory. electoral and congressional ticket with two ex- ceptions—Jerry Simpson and John Davis, pres- districts. In the event the combine carries the next legislature the people's party is to have e U. 8. Senator to succeel Senator Perkins for the unexpired term of two years. | ‘This information comes from unquestioned | authority. In fact, the scheme has the ap- | proval of L. L. Polk, president of the Farmers’ Alliauce, and Congressman Livingston of Georgia, and comes in the shape of » direct order from Chairman Brice of the national | democratic committee, with the unqualified in- dorsement of Senators Hill and Gorman. Of course, such a combine is regarded as @angerous by many republicans, who fear that it will deliver the ten glectoral votes of Kansas over to the democracy. Others believe that there is a large per cent of the voters of Kan- sas who will not be delivered bodily by Polk and his democratic conferees. Among this class is Hon. J. G. Wood of Topeka. Mr. Wood is regarded as the ablest campaigner in Kansas. He devoted two months to the campaign in 1890, and again in 1891, speaking in nearly one hundred of the one bundred and six counties in the state. His opinions are therefore based ox his personal knowledge of the situation. REPUBLICAN PROSPECTS. In an interview today he said: ‘The pros- pects for republican success in 1892 were never better, The people's party is disintegrating rapidly since the announcement by one of their moguls, Leouidas Polk, that the south could not and would not be beguiled into the meshes of any third party nets. ‘The further fact that ‘the alliance Congressmen from the south are seated, working and voting with, and are to all intents and purposes democrats, will supple- ment and serve to impress an editorial state- ment of the Advocate a few weeks since, a peo- ple’s party sheet of this city, that ‘unless the south declares itself, which it must do, only failure and defeat await us.’ Even now, in my judgment, we have the anomaly of having five men in the House and one in the Senate no more representing the people of Kansas than they do the subjects of the khedive. “The repertory of socialism and anareby has been exhausted in formulating the ‘demands’ of the people's party. | So. there are no more ‘demands’ to make in that direction, and ever they bave modified a ‘demand’ or stricken one out, the resultant is an indorsement of re- | podlican, principle and practice or @ strong leaning thereunto. Que of the strongest evi- deuces that republicanism in spirit and prac- tice is about right is the political clap trap and that is written and spoken against it. ‘The ‘demands’ of the people's party havo been dissected and argued threadbare and their leaders know it. Even now they are making the most abject overtures to the demo- crate. The latter gave them their victory in 1890, but when the time came to ‘divide up the democrats were not init. The worshipers of Jefferson and Jackson think it will be their fault if they are deceived @ second time. But the leaders of the people's party do uot delay offering the democrats in advance @ proposi- tion which will forestall ingratitude on the Bart of the former. The plan contemplates ivision in advance. For instance,the democrats and people's party meet in separate state con- ventions, and each for itself will adopt « platform. then each will nominate alternate candidates—the democrats the governor and the people's party Heutenant governor, and to on to the end. The frieud who related the above overture to me suid: ‘Some demo- crate rab their hands and shout when made acquainted with the scheme. ‘They have no politic rinciples, but are anything to “get ther thers there are,’ said he, ‘who shake their heads in ominous silence and pre- dict ali kinds of misfortune from any such coalition. In that event 1 will not say what I should do.’ “said to him to let her go at that, and, in my judgment, the republicans will sweep the stale. Such a proposition from the leaders of the people's party logically concedes te Arty nothing left except a last effort for spoils, and if accepted by the democrats the same logic condemns and puts them in the same box. Me- publicans have nothing to fear from such a combination, and really that is all they can do that promises a glimmer of hope. HOPES OF THE PROPLE’S PARTY. “The people's party has no hope of any ‘de- mand’ without the aid of the south, and so leag as negro dominancy is the sole cause of nightmare in that region it will be democratic, at best until it wakes up to find industrial and commercial interests clamoring for men in Congress who shall represcnt them. They need aud must have protection; they will necd and @ reciprocity; they need and must an honest doliar; they need and must have a secure banking system—all cardinal doctrines of ropublicauism. ‘The negro vote naturally belongs to the labor side—the white laborer imported there may see it to his in- terest to demand that the negro be allowed to vote and then that it be counted as cast. “The republicans who weut with them in hope of correcting some real or fancied wrong, finding that the whole party is contined to a few hare-brained yawpers in Kansas, and that the mpoils hunters and place scekers have vir- toally abandoned principle (for in such an event platforms are mere traps to deceive the unwary), will come back into the fold. The democrats who have investments in Kansas will see to it that their earthly possessions are no longer jeopardized by falsehoods and misrepre- sentations of men whose ‘demands’ at no point © anything in common with democracy. home plate. * A.

Royal jugglers are amateurs compared with the makers of a certain baking powder when they substitute a new mixture entirely, for the old “absolutely pure” baking powder and keep right on quoting the same old “certificates” and “testimonials.” All such tricks are vain attempts on the part of competitors to imitate the superior excellence of Cleveland's baking powder, while Cleveland’s is made as it always has been made—the best baking powder that money, science, and 26 years experience can produce. It does the most work and the best work and is perfectly wholesome. Cleveland's may be imitated, it has never been equalled. ——_—_—_—_—_—_—_—_—_—_———— 4 RAILROAD PRESIDENT CUREP to his feet, he sold: “Stor, vouxe ax, we — to the root of the disease. we remove Ina Miracnious Way. | cane: when medicine fails, we cure, and our cures are lasting.
