The prisoner refused to let the deceased play in the game and the latter said: “All right, Pl stop,” and sat down. McCreary walked over to the chair and witness heardghim say, ‘Vande- venter, do you mean that?” and the latter replied, “Yea.” McCreary then hit him with the cue. Vandeventer ‘was sitting on the chair when he was struck. Witness caught McCreary by the lapels of his coat snd tripped ‘him — up, telling bi he ought not do such a thing as that. ‘The jared boy fell to the floor.

THE ORIENT ATHLETIC CLUB. An Old Foot Ball Organization Reorganized on a New Basis, Althongh the general public have a fairly good idea of what a foot ball player is made of still outside of the colleges little or nothing was known here of the old English game of Rugby when the Orient Athletic Club was organized. This was in the fall of 1883, and the members vf this organization claim to have introduced modern foot ball in this city. For months after their organization they were, on account of there being no other ciub in the city to com- pete with them for honors, compelled to be content with practicing among themselves. They secured grounds immediately back of Lincoln Park, and it was there that they prac- ticed kicking and tossing the sphere. Another essential part of the practice was the evening runs, which were tuken two or three times a week during the month immedi- ately preceding the opening of the season. On these evenings Capt. Williams and his men could be seen coming up East Capitol or most any other street on Capitol Hill at a rate of speed which would justify the astonished on- looker in stopping und waiting for a passing posse of policemen. j ‘The next year, however, the pupils of an athletic turn of mind of the Washington = School came to the conclusion that they would do well to take advantage of the opportunities for the much-needed and health-giving exer- cises afforded by this rough-and-tumble gama, and as a result of their efforts the High Schools and Amateurs, for the club from Capitol Hill was then known by that modest name, met on the field of battle and about the first regular game of foot ball ever played in this city was decided in favor of the latter elub. After holding the championship of the city for nearly four years the members did not think it right that they should longer retain the name of the clab to Orient Foot Ball Club. During the past few years, howover, the club has not participated In many gumes, most of | the members having either married or entered business, which made it impracticable for them to keep un their practice. irous, however, of keeping up the organization, it was decided, only very recently, ton ain change the namo to Orient Athletic and to transmute the organization into an association embracing any and all forms of athletic sports. It is the inteution not only to have afoot ball club, but a tennis club and a base ball club, or any other kind of clab which the members desire to form. It is also the in- tention to secure a room or rooms on Capitol Hill and inaugurate a gymnasium and reading room. It is to promote this end that the club has arranged for the musicale to be given at Masonic Temple tonight. ‘The committee in charge of thearrangements, composed of Chas. F. Roberts, chairman; B. I. Welch, Arthur Copeland, Frank A. Carpenter and Lee F. Miller, have been very successtul in securing some excellent talent for the occa- sion, among whom are Lizzie Macnichol-Vetta of the Emma Juch Opera Company, who is at present sojourning in this city, aud the Phil- harmonic Quartet. After the musicale the re- | mainder of the evening will be spent in danc- | ing. ‘The officersof the club are as follows: Presi- dent, J. M. Williams; vice president, Lynn H. ‘Troutman; secretary, Arthur Copeland, and treasurer, Lee F. Miller. The board of man- agers is composed of the four above named olticers and Anton Stephan. gaia PRO RE NATA, A Washington Organization Which is Becom- ing Conspicuous Among Women’s Clubs. “Pro Re Nata” bids fair soon to be as the name of Amateursand accordingly changed | TWO GEORGE WASHINGTONS. But Both Left Collateral—Other Prisoners in the Police Court. There were two George Washingtons charged with violations of law in Judge Kimball's court today, but they were not in the procession, be- cause they were wealthy enough to deposit Veach to represent them, and the money was turned into the District treasury. ‘The first one in the procession was an old man named Sam Herbert. He looked as if he had been out all night and a scar on his cheek made him sppear as though he had been in s collision of some sort. “You are charged with being disorderly on Pennsylvania avenue,” read tne clerk. “Are you guilty or not guilty?” “Guilty, I suppose,” was his answer, and the judge said, “Five dollars.” Sam turned and went down stairs as though he was familiar with the operations of the court. “I'm guilty, too,” answered John B. Jobn- Son, who was arraigned for being disorderly in the county, and a similar fine was impose: “I didn't expect you to return so 8don, the judge to Rebecca Tait, a woman who Spends a large part of hor time on the farm. “I am afraid you are doomed to live in the work house all Your life.” “I hope not,” said the woman. The judge ‘gave her ninet clerk informed the court that Rebecca owed a fine from last week. “She was dressed fantastically in red, white and blue,” said Policeman McNamara,when he gave evidence against Rebecea Ross, 8 colored ‘woman charged with vagrancy. She was imitating the American flag,” re- marked her counsel, Lawyer Ricks. law- yer thought that his chent was a patriotic girl ‘and that if the judge would give her a talking to and let her go she would do better, but the Judge said he would talk to her to the tune of thirty days and then she could do better when she got ouf, Lucy Worthington, another colored girl tried for vagrancy, denied the charge und claimed that she had to care for four children, three of her own and one of her sister-in-law's. The judge thought that ten days would do her 00d, but before the procession moved out of court snother witness appeared, who con- tradicted the woman's story, and she then said that she had one child of her own and that her w had three. The judge increased the penalty to sixty day: James Koss and his brother Michael, Italian organ grinders, were the only ones present who were able to furnish music for the procession, but they did not do so because they were in for playing on the street yesterday without first aie) obtained @ permit from the chief of ice. During recent years the organ grinders and other itinerent musicians have been driven from other cities and, in order to keep this city from being overrun with them, the authorities have limited the number to less than twenty. Jim played the organ and Michael, who isa cripple, collected the money, The judge released the cripple on hisown recognizance and fined Jim $5 or fifteen days. Edward Loving and John Lewis, colored boys, denied that they were “crap shooters,” but Policeman Heller saw them going through the motions of the game and a colored girl gave direct evidence against them. She saw the bones and the money, and the judge, acting a referee, taxed the boys $8 each, Mamio’ Harris was given thirty days for va grancy. ‘The last one in the procession was a colored woman from Georgetown named Frances Poin- dexter, who has been a frequent visitor to the court for the last ten years. She denied the charge, but the court fined her $8 or twenty- days and the famous among women's clubs as it is unique and useful. Magazines, newspapers and noted clubs have all been praising ite work and recommending it as a model for other associa. tions of cultivated and liberal women who de- sire to acquire a knowledge of parliamentary rules and ease and grace in public speaking. The New York Woman's Press Club have paid “Pro Re Nata” the compliment of adopting its constitution and by-laws as their own. It is the only woman's club in which no subject is tabooed; domestic, social, political and re- ligious affairs are ‘all discussed with freedom and spirit, but without animosity. It grapples such subjects as “Municipal Keform,” “Our Mezchant Murine,” as well as “Co-operation in the Household and Woman's Influence on the ‘Temperance Question.” Mrs. Eliza A. Conner, New York journalist who has Leen a leader in the famou@Norosis for years, organized ro Re Nata with the aid of such women as Mise Clara Barton, Mrs. Lucia Blount, Mrs. Elliott Coues, Mrs. Ella M. Marble and Mrs. Jennie Moses. and it was a success from the start. Mrs. Lucia Blount, who be. sides being president of Pro Re Nata is presi- dent of the Isabelle Society and an officer in the Daughters of the Revolution, has been un- tiring i. her work for the club.’ Mrs. Blount and Mrs. Hibbert will represent the Pro Ke Nata at the Chicago convention of women's clubs which will be entertained by that enter- prising city. In April Pro Ke Nata will give an entertainment to ite friends, of which the club will bear the entire expense and make all its invitations a social courtesy and not an oc- casion for contributions to its funds.

Pugh, general secretary of the local Young Men's Christian Association, at Grace Baptist Charen Inst evening. Mr. Pugh’s familiarity with young men in bis work gave him an abundance of material to draw from, but he referred to make & semi-serious comparison etween the young men of today and those of the principal periods in human history and the privileges secured by residence in the United States over that in other countries. He cited the many who have riven to distinction through great difficulties, and closed by indi- cating the number of good positions thas will be vacant about the beginning of the twentieth contury to be filled by the earnest, active, en- ergetic, industriaus, pushing young men of today." Mr. Pugh does not poso asa lecturer, but his effort of last evening was one of the most interesting, humorous aud instructive that has been given here recently. Fined for Two Assaults.

Another dead body has been found in the THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON, D. C.; waters of the James Creck canal, the South Washington death trap that is unprotected. This time the body is that of Joseph Ransom, cousin of the late James Brightwell, whose body was found in the same place a few days ago. The body of Ransom was so far decomposed that identification was impossible and it was only identified by means of articles found in the dead man's clothing. It appears that the two mer, Brightwell and Ransom, left their home on N street southeast Christinas eve for the purpose of purchasing some Christmas goods, and there is no doubt that they were drinking and while on their way toward the fern section of the city to take the street hey walked overboard, and, being under the influence of liquor, tltey were unable to ex- tricate themselves from the mud and were drowned. ‘There were no marks of violence on either body, 80 that there is no suspicion of foul play.

Some of the bitterness that grew out of the close and exciting contest in the Grand Army over the election of commander of the De- partment of the Potomac cropped out last evening at the adjourned meeting of the en- campment. At the last session the result of the election of officers was announced and then an adjournment was taken until last evening. There are always matters of busi- ness which prolong the annual sessions, but when everything is finished up then the newly elected officers are installed. Last night, how- ever, the greater part of the session was de- voted to a discussion of the election. Mr. Dinsmore was elected commander over Mr. Faunce by only six votes, and the friends of Mr. Faunce wanted to know what had become of the votes of several members whose names were recorded. The total number of votes cast showed that all had not voted. The tellere explained that some votes were thrown out as illegal, but in the course of the discussion the personal feeling, which had become pretty strong between the friends of the two candi- dates, threatened to develop into personal en- counters. There was some disposition mani- fested to settio differences in the old-fashioned way, but the opponents did not actually come to blows. WHAT MR. DINSMORE SAYS, Mr. A. F. Dinsmore, the newly olected com- mauder, in speaking to # Stan reporter this morning of the meeting said: “There is no disposition on the part of Mr. Faunce’s friends to contest this election, and publications to that effect are misleading. ‘The question at issue before the cucampment last evening was as to the difference between the list of those voting as checked off on the rolls of the en- fampment and the number of votes reported by the tellers. ‘This difference of a few votes as due to the throwing out of illegal bafiots. ‘The friends of Mr. Faunce, who were acting as tellers, acquiesced in this action and signed the tally sheet. In my opinion the purpose of bringing this matter up was to cast a suspicion of fraud upon the election. ‘There cannot, however, be another election, and the officers announced as elected will be instailed at the time to be fixed upon by the encampment. If this election was not a perfectiy fair and legal one, there bas not been one held in this department for the past fourteen years. The question of another election was not broached in the encampment last evening.’ eee 1s IT A MYTH? ’ Actor Ferguson Says Wilkes Booth Did Not Cry “Sic Semper Tyrannis,” The New York World says that W. J. Fer- guson, the actor, is probably the only man li ing who saw the killing of Abraham Lincoln. He was playing a very small part that even- ing and was standing in one of the antrances with Laura Keene when Booth leaped from the box and ran across the stage. He passed directly between Miss Keene and Forguson, and the latter, who knew him well, recognized him instantly. Ferguson declares that he saw Booth from the moment he fired the fatal shot until he rushed past him and escaped and that he did not say anything as he crossed the stage. The sie semper tyrannis speech, he says, isa my! ‘This statement, however, is denied by those who were also prevent at the 10th street theater on the night of the tragedy. sia a SE ‘Witz you bo at Orient’s musicale?—Ad:t. ea args Howard University Commencement Exercises The junior commencement ot Howard Uni- versity will take place in the college chapel to- morrow evening at 7:30 o'clock.
