Now, however, some of the lot holders contend that this was only an excuse and that the trustees had in mind a real estate ulation, with the ultimate object of rebuilding their church with the proceeds of the sale of the cemetery. ‘ It is also contended by some of the lot owners that the trustees of the church have not only refused to give lot for lot, but they have al buried the remains of more than one person in the sams lot. Legal counsel have been con- sulted and it is very probable that an injunction will be sought to prevent the trustees from car- rying out their present intentions. It is said that the trustees deny that lot for lot was ever promised, and that they declare that only in the case of the unknown dead are the remains of more than one person interred in one grave. They also claim. it is aid, that the cost of the removal of the dead and the pur- chase of new burial sites will exceed the amount which the old cemetery will bring.

He appeared in **Tuxedo,” a farce comedy with a mixture of minstrelsy, in which | he was seen here Inst season. There have been | some changes in the piece, but it is practically | the sam mirth-provoking hodge that has made le laugh ever since it was first placed upon the stage. There are five female minstrels, who do their work remarkably well, and then of the male minstrels there are, be- sides the inimitable Thatcher, Hughey Dough- erty, George Lewis, Jay Quigley, John Dal c. BL ing was excellent, Raymond Moore, R. J. Jose, Tom Lowis and Frillman all receiving encores in their solos, while the concerted work was in every way satisfactory. A new burlesque called “Dead Man's Gulch” was very funny. Hanns’ Busou Taxaten.—There is no play which draws as well at the Bijou as “The White Slave,” and last night hundreds were turned away unable to even get standing room, The play is too well known to require careful cri cism. ‘The fact that this is ite twelfth season ia recommendation and criticism enough. The company is an excellent one. As Lisc, the White Slave, Miss Carrie Radcliffe gave a care- ful and strong prescutation. . She is new in the part, but fully up to all the requiremonts. Old- time Milt Barlow, with his wife and on, are in tho cast and fully sustain the reputation of the family. The remainder of the company is good and the scenery all new and appropriate.

The olio pre- sented contained many of the old-time favorites and several new faces. ‘The musical burletta entitled “Me and Jack” serves as an after- piece and is a medium for,the introduction of a clever assault at arms with foile, broadswords and sticks, between the Engelharts. The | serpentine dance was executed ina masterly manner by Misses Cumoring and Vivian and proved an innovation. Paul Allen as the mayor of the Ohio river town was good and hisact was new. Gallagher and West won new laugls and the travebty upon the Salvation Army by the com- pany was quite laughable. Again tonight. Stic Bas | | GEORGETOWN. MASONIC VISITATION. The Grand Lodge of the F. A. A. M. paid its annual visitation to Potomac Lodge, No. 5, last night, and after the hooks of the latter had been examined Rev. W. R. Graham of the Congress Street M.P.

At 10-40 last night John Jackson hit Chas. Dickson over the head with a rock concealed in a handkerchief and inflicted a very painful wound. The assault, which occurred in “Bos- ton,” was quickly punished by an officer, who brought Jackson to the station and locked him up. Assault and battery was the charge placed against him. NOTES. Four of the rising residents of “Holy Hill” were so hilarious thix morning at 3 o'clock near the corner of 35th and O-streets that they were brought to the station and held. ‘The Misses Ball have returned to town and reopened their plearant dancing school at Lin- thicum Hall.
