Saturday night the police were informed of stabbing case that occurred a week ago, in which s young man named John Sheppach was so badly injured that he may die. Although the affair happened a week ago Saturday night the matter was kept quiet until Dr. Hickling, the attending physician, gave the police the in- formation. Nothing definite is known by the police ax to who did the cutting, although some One is suspected of the crime and his arrest may follow ina short time. The story as learned by the police is that the injured man, Samuel Crew and Wm. Wrinkers live in Hard ing’s boarding house, No. 219 2d street north- west, and are employed as freightmen on the Tailroad. They were out drinking together on the might in question and during the evening they | toabarbder shop in the neighborhood of the | went boarding house toget shared.

Killen’s curves have been credited for the Washingtons’ victory over the Louisvilles on | Saturday, but it was not the pitching of Killen, | but the marvelous fielding of ‘the team, that won the game. Killen is entitled to great credit for putting the ball over the plate. He | certainly displayed great accuracy in his aim | and deserved much praise, but it is nonsense to say that his delivery was deceptive. Deceptivenees of delivery is indicated by the number of strike oute a pitcher has. Killen had two, bat he gave two men bases on balls, #o that his wildness was equal to his deceptive nes, What he deserves credit for is putting the ball over the plate. There were seven fielders behind hima anxious to stop the balls and well id to doit. Killen’s business was to put the all over the plate. If hits resulted the fielders ni hea tice harge hits against it an_injust to cl ita e tcher. They should be charged against the | ers. . On the other hand it is unjust to give the iteher the credit when few hits are made. should be credited to the fielders, This of course is to revolutionize the whole principle of ranking pitchers, But undoubt- edly it is the only jut way. Pitchers should recei e full credit for striking out batsmen. That's plain as a pikestaff. But to claim thata pitcher should receive credit for few hits when the flelders behind him have been running their legs off and have been making the most phenomenal plays is as absurd as it is unjust. Killen would have been charged with a large number of hits on Saturday had it not been for the splendid fielding. Duffee made acaich that would have ordi- narily resulted in a home run. Hoy madea catch that would in nine times out of ten been asafe hit. Richardson ran up behind Radford and took a fly that few short stops in the e could have caught. Larkin le an excellent stop of a hot grounder and only Killen’s muff prevented it from being an out. It can be seen, therefore, that it was the fielding that was responsible for keeping down the score of the visitors. No disparagement of Killen is intended. He He did what he = or—put it over the plate. If our other pitchers did the same the nine would have won more games. Of course, a pitcher may be so worthless that a nine can bat his delivery all over the lot. In such a case good judgment would not blame the fielders for the hits, but would bustle the pitcher right out of the box. Ordinarily, however, on ‘@ first-class pitcher like Killen is in the box the hits should be charged to the fielders and the eredit for keepig them down should also be given to the fielders, The following is the score by innings and summary: Washington. 03000002 x5 Louisville. . 0000000 0 0-0 Earned runs Washington, 2.

THE STORY OF BARBARA FREITCHIE. It ts Claimed. How the story of Barbara Freitchie, which the poet Whittier so beautifully told, originated was explained by Mrs. Southworth, the novel- ist, the other day toa Stam reporter. As Mrs. Southworth then said she sent the incident to Mr. Whittier as it was told to her by her neighbor, Mr. C. 8. Ramsburg. This version of the connection of Mrs. Freitchie with this incident is questioned by Mrs. Virgil Quantrelle Brown of this city, who writes to Tux Stam as follows: The good poet Whittier is dead, but long will live the poem of “Barbara Freitchie,”” and why not have a correct version of it, so tho public may still admire the besutifal rhythm st know it is recorded long since upon the ves of fiction as far as Mrs, Freitchie’s ma- teriadism is concerned. Mrs. E. D. E. N. Southworth tells to your reporter a version that I must contradict, and my contradiction will be verified by those living who can yall vividly the occurrence, for Frederick is . .. ancient nor far-removed, and its inhabitants aro par excellence. In the first place, Stonewall Jackson never was in the city of Frederick during the war; there are plenty of confederate officers of rank who will substantiate thnt. Secondly. At the time of the incident above related Mrs. Freitchie was over ninety years old and bed- ridden. Her nephew, Valerius Ebert, then mayor of the city, was'a rank southerner, and south with one exception—Mr. John Ebert. I think he is still living. Mrs. Freitchie's husband was hung years before in the court house yard as a “tory.” Now, Mrs. South- worth says she received her information from a Mr. Ramsburg only a few years ago. I wrote Mr. Whittier asking him for information. I received a prompt reply, in which he says, “I got my information from Mrs. Southworth, who writes me she in turn received it from Miss | Dorethea Dix, who was a matron in the hospital at Frederick.” I received not only one but several letters expressing regret that he had given publicity to s false idea robbed the ue subject of justice, and not until the rela- tives of Mrs. F. found glory descending did they admire the good poet's beautiful senti- ment. , Some time ago I wrote for Kate Ficlds’ Wash- ington a history of the true affair, and at avy time I can satiefy those who would like to know that truth can stand boldly to the front. Mrs. Southworth has read, I know, that Mrs. Mary Quantrelle was the’ heroine, and her identity has been established in the pages of history. Because an error was written and she has fame, why does she still repeat her version without stating, what sho must know, the dis- covery of its untruthfulness? The people of Americaare enlightened enough to seek inquiry and know the facts. I thought Mr. Whittier the embodiment of honor, and his written regrets fully compen- sated the act. I admire Mrs. Southworth's pro- lific brain, but I love justice better than all. DENIED BY MRS. FREITCHIE’S NIECE. Another correspondent writes: Whittier's death should have caused to be brought forth something more noble, more beautiful of his works than the so-called trae poem on Barbara Freltchie. Tradition lerds verity to history and this story will go down to posterity as an historical fact. - It has not a shadow of founda- tion, though many like our dear friend Mrs. Southworth and our loved poct have perfect in its truth, as told by Mr. C. 8. Rams burg to Mrs. Sonthworth. This, 1 believe, is the first time the origin of the story ever was given, and no doubt those who believe it will rest still in the delusion. Last February it | was my good fortune to visit Mra. Catherine | Hanshaw, the niece of Barbara Freitchie, who had been reared by her from infancy. This lady was then ninety-one years old, and, retaining every faculty, told me the falsencss of the story of her Aunt Barbara und the flag. She did not know how it originated, but such a hold had it taken on the minds of the people that her niece had been taught by the sisters at the Frederick convent to illustrate the poem on a satin banner, which banner Mrs. Hanshaw then had in her parlor. She always said when ex- hibiting it and the various pieces of furniture and china “That Aunt Barbara never was krown to possess a flag.” and she added that the arti- cles published relative to her neglected grave in Frederick were also untrue and that all such publicity was distasteful to them. This dear old lady died last spring, bequeath- ing to her daughters and nicces the relics of Barbara Freitchie, consisting of various pieces of furniture and ‘china, one an historical % in which tea was made for Gen, Washing- m on his way to Yorktown. A quilting party was on hand in the parlor of the City Hotel of Fredericktown when news came of the near approach of Gen. Washing- ton. The landlady rushed in the parlor, and, amid a great commotion, the quilt was rolled up and the room prepared for his coming. The busy housewife bethought herself there was ro teapot fit to bring on the table for Gen. Wasb- ington, and begged Barbara, then a mere child, to go home and bring theirs, which has been ever cherished as a memento of that occasion in the family of Barbara Freitchie. ——o An Effective Decoration.

J.C. Heald has filed a suit against T. Owen Berry et al. to quiet title to the Oxon Hill property in the District and partiy in Prince George's county, Md. It was once, in 1845, the Property of Z. Berry. and was sold to 8. T. Suit and then to Mr. Ieald for $30,000, but in the proceedings a cloud affected the title, and this the court is asked to remove. A bill has been filed by C. J.

At the last monthly meeting of the third after the dress parade First Lieut, Columbus of company B stepped from the line of officers and informed the members of the battalion and their friends who had assembled to witness the parade that there was to bea supplement to the ceremony. Ina pleasing little speech he presented to Capt. Michnel Mabany, in the name of Capt. B. L. Walker, company A, sixth battalion, a magnificent dress sword as a memento of Capt. Walker's personal regard, and as a fitting tribute to the ability ‘that has marked Capt. Mnahany’s career aéan officer of the National Guard. The lieutenant also gracefully referred to the thirty odd years of Capt. Mahany’'s active service in the arm: The captain, who never before acknowl defeat, admitted that he was upon this ion vanquished. He, however, rallied sufficiently appreciation of the sentiment represented by the beautiful souvenir. At, the conclusion of the ceremony Capt. Mahany was surrounded by his friends and warmly congratulated. It was regretted that the donor, the commanding officer of cor ny A of the sixth battalion, Capt. . L. Walker, was unable to be present, ho being seriously il at bis home. He was rep” resented upon that occasion by First Lieut. Smoot of his company. Weekly drills have been resumed in all the companies of the third. It is contemplated to organize n school of in- struction for the non-commissioned officers of the third battalion this fall. Adjt. Warren and First Lieut. Dunn have this matter in charge and propose to make the course a very thorough one. Lieut. George A. Warren, adjutant third bat- talion, has received the following letter from Representative Henderson of Iowa, for whom their camp was named: “I am in receipt of your kind letter of the 28d instant advising me of the action taken by the guard in naming their camp after me. ‘This is a very high compliment, which I'sincercly appreciate, and I am glad to know that my never failing interest in the N: tional Guard of the District of Columbia and the country at large is thus delicately recog- nized. I trust that you will take pains to make known to the guard, to Maj. Harrison and those. under bis command how sincerely I appreciate their action.” —.-—— _.. Died From Heart Disease. George P. Tenney of 1720 8th street north- west on Saturday fell from his bicycle at Scott Circle and immediately expired. He was taken to the residence of Wm.
