REV. bik eee Ere t f y ~ < atacjaned de sopra People who can't | ict f country under the exclusive jurisdic | CAPITAL PUNISHMENT. duced by Mr. Curtis, It is conceded that this Cougress will prob- ably enact some legislation fixing the degrees of punishment for the crimes of murder and manslaughter in the District of Columbia and other places where the United States has excla- sive jurisdiction. A bill to this effect has been reported from the House committee on judi- time. Mr. Curtis yesterday introduced two bills re- pealing the law providing capital punishment for murder and fixing imprisonment for life | &s the punishment. One bill provides for manslaughter as fol- lows: That whoever purposely and with pre- meditated malice or in the perpetration of or in the attempt to perpetrate any rape, arson, robbery or burglary, or by adminis- tering poison, or cxasing the same be done, within any fort, arsenal, dock-/| yard, magazine or in any other cor dis- | tion of the United States, or upon bigh seas, Of any arm of the sen, or in any river, haven, creck. basin or bay’ within the ad- miralty jurisdiction of the Unived States, and | out of the jurisdiction of any particular state, | kills any Luman being, is guilty of murder in | the first degree, and npon conviction thereof shall wufler imprisoutent at hard labor during | ite. See. 2. That whoever within any of the places | named or upon or in any of the waters men- tioned im the Preceding section; purposely and | maliciously, but without premeditation, kills | any human being, is guilty of murder im the | second degree, aud upon conviction thereof shail be imprisoned at hard labor for a peried of uot more than twenty yours, Sec. 3. That whoever within any of the places | or upon or in any of the waters mentioned in the first section unlawfully kills any buman being without maiice. express or implied, either | voluntarily upon sudden heat, or involuntarily, but in the commission of an unlawfal act, 1s | guilty of manslughter, and upon conviction | thereof shall be imprisoned at bard labor for @ Period of not more than ten years. | Sec. 4. That any person convicted of an of- fense to which the punishment of death 1s now | specitically affixed by the laws of the United States shall be sentenced to imprisonment at hard labor for the term of his or ber natural life, and any person convicted of an offense to Which the punishment of death or such other | puniskment as the court in its discretion may direct is affixed, the maximum punishment | suall be imprisonment at hard labor for the term of his or Ler natural life. Sec. 5. That the punishment of death pre- scribed for the violation of any provision of the United States statuies is hereby abolished ali laws and parts of laws inconsistent with this uct are hereby repealed. Mr. Fellows of New York, by request, intro- duced the following bill: j That section 765 of the Revised Statutes of the | United states be amended by the addition of the following paragraph, namely: “Provided, however, That in capital cases, when the ap- yellant is under sentence of death, the ptovis- lous of this section shall not apply, except upon the express order and direction of the judge from whose decision the appeal is taken, who | may at his discretion order a stay of execution 01 such sentence of death pending the final de- termination of said appeal.” spans, re TRE FENCIELES’ FAIR. It Opens at the National Rifles’ Armory With Great Success. The National Fencibles fair was opened last night at National Rifles’ Hall in the presence of | large crowd, the greater portion of which | was composed of good-looking young men and } the prettiest of girls. It was nearly 8:30 when Gen, Ordway, Commissioners Ross and Rossell | and several members of Gen. Ordway's staff ascended to the stage and waited for the multi- tude to cease talking. Capt. Domer succeeded in securing the attention of the audi- ence and then Gen, Ordway was in- troduced amid applause. The general gave forcible expression of his gratification at the success which had attended the Fencibles from the time of their organization as acom- pany. ‘The entire District National Guard was proud of Capt. Domer and bis command and Wished the company all success in its venture. ‘The general also stated that he was pleased to see the encouragement given by the ladies to those who were endeavoring to acquire the ele- mentsof a military education—something which aright some day be valuable to both the indi- vidual and the country. At the conclusion of his remarks Gen. Ordway formally declared the fair open. ‘A great deal of work was apparent in the decorations of the ball and the booths. The arrangements for the profitable interviewing of visitors were complete in every res} One of the features of the fair is its news- paper, The Bayonet. Lieut. W. W. Mortimer iy editor.

A public hearing was given by the Commis sioners this afternoon to those persons inter ested in Senate bill 404, providing for the ex- tension of 37th street. On the 4th of the present month the Commi» sioners recommended favorable action upom the bill, Mr. Tracy F. Jeffords spoke in favor of the Dill, which, be explained, would be, if passed ‘one of the gr.atest improvements in the city. Mr. F.W. Huidekooper followed in much the same line, pointing out the advantages that would certainly accrue to the emall property holders if the bill became a law. Mr. H. D, Cook said the improvement as contemplated in the bill was @ much-needed ‘one for Georgetown, At prosent there was me outlet northward from Georgetown and the only connection the residents had with Tenley- town and the section thereabouts was along High street, which was now occupied by the electric road. Since the railroad had this street tho carriage travel had been reduced through Georgetown, Not more than one i twenty private carriages weut, through now that did before the railroad was built, Mr. Michael Weaver Opposed the bill. He said if the bill mealaw and Sith street | was extended it would destroy considerable property. There was no public necessity for the extension of the street and it was his opinion that the sole object of the bill wast benefit the property of Mr. Huidekooper. Capt. E.& Randall also. opposed the bill the same reason. The advocates of the bad stated that the object of the extension of 37th street was to get away from the electrie | road. yet the proposed bill contemplated the meeiing of S7th «treet with the electric road at Tenleytown, which was hardly consistent, Mr. (. J, Homiller, one of the ownersaffected, stated that he had signed the petition tor the opening of 87th «treet, yet in doing so he suf- fered xi the bill became a law. He was in favar of improving Back street and opening another cross street. Mr. Tracy F. Jeffords closed the argument, He thought that the entire objection of the Property owners was for pecuniary reasome and the proposed appropriation was ample @ pay all damages, —— AKT IN WASHINGTON, The Gratifying Exhibition of Local Arties to Last Until April, ce were needed cither as te @ distinct advance on the part of Washingtos artiste or of an increased interest in the gem- eral subject of art by this community, it was Abundautly supplied at the Woodward ® Lothrop galleries last evening, the occasion being the opening reception of the second anuual exhibition of the Society of Wash- ington Artists. At no time has there been in this city better display of the work of local talent, and there has never been a larget or more enthusiastic assemblage brought to- gether here on such an occasion. The four walls of the gallery arecompletely covered with works that aro in every way creditable, while astand suitably placed contains « number of small pieces, illustrating what is be « done here in of sculpture. ‘The general or average standard of excellence in the paintings shown is considerably higher than last year, and several artists appear to much becter advantage than ever before. That the jury of admission has been conscientious ud eflicient in its efforts to place local art | upon a lugher plane is shown both in the quality of the exhibition asa whole and in the n: ber of offerings that were excluded. The w number of artists exbibiting ws seventy-one, represented by due hundred and fifty-m paintings and twelve pieces of sculpture. To secure the excellent rosult attained no less than ninety-six offerings, the work of twenty-three ditferént artists, were rejected. This act have been and no doubt was a disay asp ll be promoted thereby, and some of those who now feel ag- krieved will in the end hardly fail to be gainers An consequence. So much for the exhibition, asa whole. Gf the work of particular artiste shown there is neither time nor space ut this time for adequate comment. Nor is an extended review peces- sary. ‘The intelligent and «pirited criticisms heard on every side inst evening gave evidence that there is no need on the part af the press to point out merits or defects. As to the attendance at the opening reception, it was in numbers in the highest degree créditable te the city, while m social position, general intel- ligence and keen appreciation it was all that the artists themselves could desire. Indeed in the first respect there was almost too much of 4 good thing, since, until near the hour for closing the gallery, ‘the throng was #0 great that it was almost impossible to move about with comfort or fo examine the pictures om the walls with satisfaction. The arrangements of the affair were, however, well throughout, the officers and ‘members of the society exerting themscives to the utmost and With great success for the comfort and pleasure of their guests during the whole of the even- ing, and ‘it is a gratification to be able to say that, notwithstanding lack of facilities for eare- number of the pictures shown, 1 sold, It may be added that y will remain open each week day, free to the public, from now until the Ist of April. Tne exhibition deserves and will doubt- less be awarded Liberal eucouragement on the part of the public. PAREWELL TO MK. FERGUSON.
