Maggie Joseph iss fifteen-year-old daughter of Arabia, who earns her daily bread by ped- dling combs, bruehes, &c. Yesterday her hunt for purchasers carried her in the neighbor- hood of the Aqueduct bridge, where Albert C. Cornwell, under pretense of buying, invited her to enter bis house, a caual boat, which lay immediately west of the bridge. ‘The girl ac- cepted the invitation and shortly after Officer brown saw her leaving the boat erying and de- manded to know the cause. Maggie told him that she had hardly entered the boat Lefore Cornwell made indecent proposals to her. Being insulted, she attempted to leave, when it is claimed her way was forcibly blocked, and Lot until she threatened to call the police was she permitted to depart. During the alleged de- tention Cornwell was struck on the hand with stick which the Arabian girl carried. A slight bruise was inflicted. Believing the g y to be true, Officer Brown placed Cornwell un- der arrest, and a charge of assault and battery was entered against hum : Mrs. Cornwell, who called at the station Inter in the day to see her husband, told a somewhat different story.

No collateral would be taken and the prisoner spent the night behind the bars. It was in proof that the little girl refused to kiss him, and that during the time che was on the boat he put his hand on her.

Washington was visited yesterday by one of the most-talked-of pugilists of the year. Peter Maher, the Dublin lad who is to try conclusions with Bob Fitzsimmons before the Olympic Club, New Orleans, on March 2, quietly left his ining quarters at East Hampton, L. L, and slipped away from the New York talent with his backer and trainer, Billy Madden, and Jack Fallon, his sparring partner, and arrived in this city yesterday morning. ‘They evidently intended their visit to be a secret, for upon their arrival they went at once to a modest hotel on a back street and refused to one. Later in the day the party took a run and wound up at the monument. Here Madden suggestod that Maher duplicate Ja mpsey 6 feat of runuing up the monumeut steps, a dis- tance of 20 feet.

He took the elevator down and repeated the periormance. It was a severe test and showed conclusively that his wind was all right, ‘On the way down town the party stopped in Kernan’s Theater for a few moments to witness the feate of the strong men and after the show adjourned to the Botanical Gardens with a STAR reporter. Here a hundred yards was stepped off anda series of foot racesat that distance inauga- rated. ‘The first race was between Madden and POLICY BOOKS IN HIS SHOES. Yesterday it was proved that the policy busi- ness is still Leing carried on at the Virginia end of the aqueduct, As Officers Sothern and Grealy were patrolling their beat a small col- ored boy was noticed to turn his head and steps toward Roslyn. ‘There was nothing about him to indicate that he was engaged in an ille- gitimate business, but he was instantly sus- pected by the officers and placed under arrest. After an apparently thorough search for con- vieting evidence had been made the boy was about to be let off when it was thought a good plan to more carefully examine his shoes. False soles were discovered and between the true and extra ones were found three policy books such as are used by the writers. Dennis Watkins, tor such was the Loy’s name, was es- corted to the station and charged with promot- ing policy. He requested that A. B. Williams Le notified of his arrest. When the books were brought forth Watkins expressed great surprise and wondered how they got there. Whea the case was called before Judge Miller this morn- ing the boy was not represented by counsel, bat he demanded a jury trial in a manner that indicated that he had been properly instructed.

He has defeated a number of un- known pugilists and has bested the bully of London. During Jackson's trip to England Maher met him, but failed to stay over two rounds, declaring that he was out of condition. In this country he has met and defeated such men as Jack Fallon, Sailor Brown, Bubbles Davis, Jack Lynch,and Joe Godfrey.

The leisurely manner in which the work of salving the cargo of the North German Lloyd steamer Eider, stranded on Atherfield Ledge, off the southwest coast of the Isle of Wight, is proceeding tw provoking much criticism’ in shipping and other circles interested in marie time affairs. The officers who still remain on board the Eider complain of the slowness of the German salvers. There are only « dozen men working on the steamer though it is known a strong southwest yale, which is not an infre- quent occurrence on that coast, may spring up atany time, and the heavy sea which would be sure to run with such a wind would demolish the vewel. If the steamer sinks afew more inches her position will be hopeless, and it is thonght that this fact alone wouid tend to extra exertions being made to get as much cargo ay possible out of her. ‘There 1s evidently one or more large holes in theafter part of the hull, for the sea washes in and out of the hoid. The after part of the stexmer is also twisted and has a list toport. The forward purt is fairly sound. — see In the house of comuions yesterday the Right Hon.

Tuesday evening the negro, his face con- cealed behind a white mask, entered the house of Mrs. Mary Moore, a widow, sixty-five yoars old, choked her almost into unconsciousness, stole ‘a few valuables and escaped. A little later he held up P. H. Buckley and Miss Hattie Gilkes, whom Buckley was accom- panying to her home. When abreast of the couple the negro ordered them to hold up their hands, Miss Gilkes fled in one direction while Buckley fled in another. ‘The negro pursned the woman, threw one arm around her neck, and with the butt end of his revolver struck her on the head, felling her to the ground Buckley recovered himself and tan to his companion's assistance.

Prof. Wm. McAdams has made a discovery which he says will be of much benefit to the scientific world. While digging for relics in a small mound about 500 yards north of the celebrated monk's mound in St. Claire county, Ill, at the depth of eighteen feet he found a bundle of fossilized vegetation neatly tied to- gether with a stout cord or small rope. All were in a fine state of preservation. Near by were various kinds of seeds, probably of some species of pumpkin. Part of a corncob was also found, together with some of the grain. Earthen ware was also found. The pro- fessor says these relics have been there nearly 2,000 years. ——___+e+____ Died From a Hog’s Bite. A year ago Lewis Asher, a prominent mer- chant of Springfield, Obio, was bitten by a hog he was attempting to drive into a pen. Last Friday a black spot appeared on his tongue and soon had spread over the whole surface. Then the organ began to swell.

In the fire at the southwest corner of Balti- more and Eutaw streets in Baltimore on Wed- nesday afternoon, Leon A. Talbott..a fireman, was suffocated and Frank Miller, another fire- man, was painfully scorched. The $500 life insurance provided by the fire department and the $500 which the department pays the heirs of men who lose their lives in the service was supplemented on ‘Thursday by another $500 from Messtg. George W. und Edwin F. Abell, Proprietors of the Sun, making $1,500 in all. Capt. Conway of ‘Talbott and Miller's com- pany says: ‘The saddest part of the disaster is that the danger in which the men found thom- selves was so €asy to escape. Had they turned to the left and gone down the stairs all would Lave been well. The workman who was helpiny me tu pull up the hose to the fourth floor li just comedown the stairs, Had I been in the Uitth floor myself T would not have felt that I was in the least danger. I could have walked to the stairway, afew steps away, and oscaped, for I was familier with the building. The men were not. ‘Talbott was undoubtedly overcomo early in his danger by smoke. He could not stand it with the average endurance of firemen, and 1 once told him that I did not think he ‘ought to remain at such work.” ‘The Messrs. Abell also sent £100 to Miller.
