Yesterday evening the rustic festival of the Washington Light Infantry corps was opened and from this time until April 2 there will be sounds of revelry by night at the Infantry armory. : Commissioners Ross and Douglass were on the program to open the festival. They were present in due season and, in conjunction with ‘& great crowd of visitors, were given an illumi- natory surprise. As they entered the hall the hundreds of electric lights were turned on. The effect was a brilliant success. There was complimentary music by the or- chestra, an introductory speech by Col. W. G. Moore and then Commissioner Ross delivered abrief and pleasing address. Business fol- lowed closely upon the speeches, but it was odd Sort of business for those who have had expe- riences at fairs. There was no clamoring for votes, no annoyances, even of the most polite Yeseription. ‘The only necessary tax was tho admission fee and that was small enough to suit everybody. Dancers occupied a large pro- portion of the floor space from 10 o'clock until midnight. CLEVER DECORATIONS. It is easily within the narrow bounds of truth to state that there has never been such clever decoration in any other entertainment given im this city. The interior wails are completely concealed by hundreds of cedar, pine and holly trees; wagon loads of laurel have been use med from the white and gold ceiling are 500 yards of garland, studded with over 5,000 artificial roses—the latter made by some of the lady friends of the corps. The ceiling is dotted with over 200 incandescent electric lights in tinted bulbs, and myriad gas jets glimmer faintly through richly colored globes. The effect is charming and cannot fail of appreciation. Capt. Chas. Ebert designed the eutire affair and has labored incessantly and successfully to elaborate upon his original a. He has been assisted by members and friends of the corps, allof whom ‘icserve credit, but the principal honor is Capt. Ebert's ‘THE WIOWAM. Entrance to the hall is through a rustic ar- bor, the lattice work profusely decorated with garlands and flowers. On the right hand Allison is “the wigwam,” where Capt. : Nailor has gathered together amost in- teresting collection of Indian and other curiosities. There are Navajo blankets, ghost shirts, feather ornaments. elaborate specimens of bead and porcupine work, furs, bows and arrows, pipes, war clubs, moccasins, war bon- neta and other ethnological bric-a-brac. One object of considerabie interest and value is a table which was used as a writing table by Gen. Washington. Then there isa bronze bell. the hen. ball or railway car.

LOVERS’ LANE. “Lovers' lane” is a walk beneath the trees past the old Homestead well (where liquid refreshment may be had) to the gipsy camp at the entrance to the forest. A real Virginia worm fence adds to the true rusticity of the decorations. Near the gipsy cainp is therustic lunch room. : More beantifal than any other single feature in the room is the flower pavilion. Flowers and evergreen have been lavishly yet tastefully used, and the combination of electric lights i wonderfully effective.

The boots belonged in front of Abbott's shoe store in Anacostia, but Special Policeman James Young, colored, found them some distance from the store. When he ap- peared in court he was dressed in a blue suit of clothes, a box coat and his jewelry gave him the appearance of s leader in his particular class of society. On the lapel of his coat he wore a badge which be said was the emblem of the Union Mission, of which he was x member He denied the charge and when asked why he went to Anacostix, he s@l that one of bis friends told him he’ would make him drank, if he went over there. ‘Arthur's companion was asmaller colored boy named Henry Wells, who said he was jaui- tor of Mt. Pisgau Church. They were both charged with lareeny and Lawyer Hewlett <je- fended them. After hearing the testimony Judge Muller sentenced them to sixty days each. “What will the church do then?" asked counsel, “The church is better off without Wells,” said the judge. “It’s a wonder, with such a man, that there is any church to worship in” ces South Dakota for Harrison.

A moment later Hamilton was ors off first, but Larkin dropped the ball and Hamilton reached second, ‘Thompson's out at first put him on third, and on Delabanty’s fly to center he scored.

Little Radford, contrary to expectation, is holding up his end in batting. The crocus cranks were considerably cast down at the Nationals losing their first two games, They forgot that these same Phillies beat Ward's nine twice. Washington's team, it must be remembered, is an entirely new one. ‘That they have been able to do so well atthe start is something amazing.

Just where will depend altogether on President Wagner.—Phil- adviphia Press, Hoy, Duffee and Wood didn’t get in a hit yes- terday. Look out for them today. The Phillies put up a model game yesterday.

The trial of the suit of Mra Margarot Me- Camphill against Bernard Schmidt, a Brookiyn saloon keeper, was begun yesterday morning. The plaintiff married James McCamphill, a blacksmith, in 1884, and says she advanced her husband #100 with which to estabiish him: in business. He located next door to Schmi saloon and did a good business, earning $5 or 26 a day until he got into the babit of visiti Schmidt's saloon in 1889. She called upon Schmidt and pleaded with him not to sell her husband any more liquor, but her prayers and her requests were. u heeded, she says, although Schmidt alwa: Promised to desist. When at home he spent nearly all his beating her. On several occasions, she alle; compelled to flee from the house self in order to escape her husband’s abuse. She continued to notify the defondant not to sell her husband more liquor, Schmidt prom- ined every time to .top, but she learned that his promises were broken. Finally McCamphill’s business went to pieces and she was deprived of means of support. Sebmidt often saw McCamphill beat her and throw her into the street. she alleges, but he continued to sell him liquor. Mrs. McCamp- hill says she has been forced to pawn her fur- niture, clothing and otzer rty to buy food, and that since McCampbhill lost his busi- nesshe has been unable to get employment except at very low wages, while she has taken in sewing iu order to get food for herself aud children. By reason of these facts she thinks she is en- titled to $10,000 and asks the court to compel the saloon keeper to pay her that amount. ‘The answer is a general denial, — 200- Ferdinand Ward Nearing Freedom.
