The story of “ ite mumer- ous ludierons complications upon « ‘tather slender thread, but they are so deftly arranged that there ts no apprehension of its failing to sustain the weight upos ft. The story was that of « physiclan, John Mar- well, who in order to prove to his wife that it requires no ability to lie undertakes a deception himself. He meets the fate of the amateur and fs involved in no end of trouble and bumilia- tion. He selects as his Me the very common- place statemen$ that he has been out riding, kets confused with his nephew who really has been scampering over the country in the most reprebensfble manner end narrowly escapes public arrest. The role of John Mazvell was very capably taken by George Allison. “The Grey Mare” ts preceded by “A Bed of Roses.” This fs a one-act comedy which presents muck that is admirable, sharing the objectionable characteristic of most such productions—a pro- fuseness of conversation with a rather slender thread of action. The conversation, however, is graceful and clever and the piece affords opportunities for good work, which are fully taken advantage of by Messrs. Findlay, Stern- rord, Allison and Rose and Miss Kennark and Miss ‘Warren. Acapemy or Mvaic.—Arthur Law's comedy “Dartmoor,” Americanized, was given its first production in this country last night at the Academy, and it ta hardly necsssary to state thet the attraction of the piay for this city was Eo arama proper of Miss Bettina Gerard, better known here as Misa Betty Ordway. “Dartmoor,” cast in the usual line of what may be known’ as semi-emotional dramas, with its story of love and duty and vil- | lainy, without any unusual power is an inter- esting stery and holds an audience's attention to the very last. Mr. Gilmour as Dick Venables, husband of Mrs. Lisle (Mise Gerard), is the | villain, and with his contrast of pathos and is vices and bis virtues makes of the oue that is not readily forgotten. As erard, whatever may have been said adversely of her in her lyric work, as an actress in the legitimate field of drami ves un- uestioned promise of « substantial #uecess. Vithout attempting to measure the dramatic heights that she will reach, it ean be safely pre- dicted that she will always be a pleasing artist. Her beauty, her grace, her reserved force, ber perfect adaptability to roles will make of her a permanent favorite. All these have not come to her vet in an eminent degree, but the promise 1 there and devotion to her work will develop them to the fall. She was givenacurtain call and some beautiful towers at the close of the first act. The entire cast was good, especially noteworthy being little Miss Marguerite Fields, Miss Cushman, Mr. Westford and Mr. Power. Mr. Power's Arch- deacon in all points was quaintly funny. The house was large and appreciative, and there was no doubt of ite thorough enjoyment of “Dartmoor” in its conception by the author and its production by #0 good a company. Haxeis’ Brsov Turater.—The performance at the Bijou this week t* one of the best ever seen there, Lillian Kennedy, a clever and be- witching little soubrette, ' presented “She Couldn't Marry Three,” « comedy drama of more than ordinary interest and an excellent medium for displaying her versatility.’ story of the play is, that of a Cornish fisher maiden, who is loved and wooed by three gal- lants. ‘The villain, the hero and the comedian e all been introduced, and the interest ix kept up from the rise of the curtain. The scenery is especially appropriate and the com- pany first class in every respect. Again to- night. eaxax’s Lrcecw T ATER.-Those old- t- time favorites, Sheridan and Flynn, who tracted considerable notice several years ago | to by their inimitable rendition of “Down Went McGinty,” bave taken a company of their own on the road, and last night opened a week's engagement at Kernan's toa large audience. The first part, “Murphy's Reception,” was ludi- crous and introduced the entire strength of the company. Then followed a first-class olio, in which several old time favorites made their ap- pearance in conjunction with new stars, A burlesque entitled “The Merry Buecaneers” closed the entertainment. Again to night. — Talk of Lieut. Vernon's Retirement. Although many names have been suggested as candidates for the position of lieutenant of police, now occupied by Lieut. Charles R.

The biennial session of the Supreme Council of the 83d degree of the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite of Free Masonry fur the southern Jurisdiction of the United States was convened yesterday in the temple, $d and E streets.

In a letter to the Secretary of the Treasury transmitting their annual estimates the Com- missioners write as follows: “The Commission- ers have been compelled to omit from their regular estimates several important items, which they deem proper to submit in the form of an appendix. The sole reason for the omission lies in the fact that the total estimated revenues of the District for the fiscal year ending June 80, 1894, were not sifficient to provide for the items in question. In the order of importance ‘these items are as follows: 1. Main intercepting sewers, $573,500. This item includes the estimated additional appropriation necessary for completing the main intercepting sewer from near Easby's point to near the intersection of isth and E trees northwest. Under existing law the Com- missioners are authorized to enter into oon- tract for the whole of this sewer at a total cost of not to exceed $225,000, to be paid for as a ropriations are from time to time made w. The actual appropriation thus far made is ouly $90,000. ‘Since that appropriation was made the enactment of the compulsory ‘eight- hour law has rendered it necessary to increase the estimates for all kinds of work and the esti- mated additional appropriation necessary for the sewer in question is $157,500. The second in intercepting sewer is intended to rescue nd preserve Rock creek from pollution below | the P street bridge. The estimated cost of this | sewer is $251,000. The third sewer of this class | is intended to intercept and carry to deep water the dry weather flow of the large enst Boundary | sewer. This is necessary to avoid extremely | bad sunitary conditions In the near future. The | estimated cost of this sewer ts $165,000. If the | above-named main intercepting sewers are pro- | vided for by appropriations there will be needed ‘& special additional force to supervise their con- struction. ‘THE aQuEDUCT. 2. The second in importance of the items of the appendix is based upon the special needs of the Washington aqueduct. In order to afford suitable provision against s water famine due toa ible accident to tl conduit between Georgetown and Great Falls, the receiving reservoir should be brought into use with the necessary expendi- $290,625. ‘The officer in charge of the aqueduct believes this work to be ‘one of great ucy,and the Commissioners concur in his views. Additional items recom- mended by the same officer as urgent are also concurred in by the Commissioners as, follows: Repairing, 5,000; reserving the accumulation of deporite, €14,000. 8. The third {tem in the appendix relates to the improvement of streets. Very important work of street improvement and repair has necessarily been omitted from the regular esti- mates for the reason heretofore stated. The work referred to embraces expenditures for re- pairs to concrete pavements to cost $20,000 and work on sundry streets and avenues to cost $220,000. ‘The Commissioners are of the opin- fon that the improvement of all the streets in schedule A, submitted by the engineer depart- ment, are necessary to the best interests of the city and are demanded by the improvements already made along said streets by the abutting property owners. A report was submitted to Congress at its last session showing the importance of increas- ing the appropriation for repairs to concrete pavements to at least €200,000a year. The Com- missioners concur in the opinions expressed in said report. 3 =: THEY WANT IMPROVEMENTS. Brookland Citizens Will Appeal to Congress for Street Appropriations. The Brookland Citizens’ Association held a well-attended meeting last night and matters connected with the welfare of that rapidly growing subdivision were earnestly and intelli- gently discussed. There was much indignation expressed that the District Commissioners in their estimates for improvements for the next fiseal year had ignored Brookiand entirely, and an effort will be made to secure from Congress some appropriation. There was great unanimity in the meeting and it was decided to notify the Commissioners it in future all the wants of the association would be expressed through its executive com- mittee and not through individual members or residents. President Lynch occupied the chair and Secretary D. M. Wood recorded the minutes, The old executive committee re- signed and then the executive and legislative committees were consolidated and the follow- ing were elected as the new executive commit- tee: Harry Barton, Dr. Frank T. Howe, I. 3. Hollidge, E._T. Davis, T. G. Carmick, F. R. McCormick, J. V. R. Towers, Jos. Baumer, Dr. J. H. Brooks, W. P. Armstrong, D. M. Wood and C. K. Hetfield. The executive committee were instructed to urge an appropriation of 15,000 from Congress and also to take into consideration a comprehensive plan of sewer- age for the subdivision. A resolution passed at the Inst meeting of the asso- ciation hus been transmitted to the District Cor ners requesting them to lay board walks under the compulsory permit sys- tem as follows: Along Bunker Hill road from the end of the board walk west of the railroad crossing to the railroad crossing, thence along north side of Bunker Hill road to Queen street, and on the south side of Fort street # Uni- versity Heights; along 12th street on the east side from Emporia street, South Brookland, to University Heights; along the west side of Wallace street from’ Bunker Hill road to Hart- fort street: , Queen street from Hartford to Frankfort, and thence on Hartford one block eastward, and the north side of Bunker Hill road from the railroad crossing to Providence street. ee A Columbian Celebration. The members of the Young People’s Associa- tion of the Fifth Baptist Church and their friends spent a pleasant evening Monday in the lecture room of the church. The occasion was a Columbus celebration. After the regular order of business was concluded the meeting ad- journed to the consideration of « program of patriotic selections. A very interesting pro- gram had been prepared. and that it was fully appreciated was shown by the liberal applause that greeted each number. A special feature of the entertainment was two tableaux, one representing the “Goddess of Liberty” and the four cardinal virtues of life, vi ‘Justice, Truth, ‘Temperance, and Fortitude.” and the other the “Statue of Liberty Enlightening the World.” — Discovery Day at St. John’s The Discovery day celebration at St. Jchn’s College will take place Thursday evening, the exercises beginning at 7:30 o'clock. ‘The pro- gram as arranged is as follows: Overture, Il Trovatore, Verdi, David S.
