Evening. | The admirable features of the night schools | which were opened last evening for the season }are readily apparent to any one who will take | the trouble to visit one of ‘the public school | buildings when the schools are in session. Last evening they were opened-for the season, and | from this time until warm weather they will be | in operation. For two hours on three evenihgs | of each week the pupils in these schools will [continue their studies. The classes are so grnded that there is a place for every one, how- ever limited their attainments. The rudiments of reading, writing and spelling are taught end | there are classes for more advanced stadents. | In fact, the schedule of studies =a to wait the needs of the class for which these schools are maintained. Every one knows that there are plenty of boys and girls who through stress of circumstances are deprived of the means of education at an age when the avernge boy orgirl is in school. They are com- peiled to work during the d «ym order to get food to eat, clothes to Laoag ° of shelter. Of course, chiidren in circumstances are anable to spend the working hours of the dayin school. ‘Then there are others who might have enjoyed these advantages, but through mistaken ideas they have attached but little importance to the benefits of education or else through mere willfulness have neglected their | opportunities. After a while they realize the | value of an education, but by that time it is too Inte to retrace their steps. However, nearly everyone who works for a living has leisure in the evenings,and it is to enable young men and women to profitably utilize this ieisure time that the night schools were organized. EARNESTNESS OF TRE PUPILS. If such schools as are now a part of the pub- lic school system of the District had been founded by private benevolence they would be regarded as ono of the notable institutions of the for Bell's Death. Yesterday afternoon six citizens and Coroner Schaeffer | viewed the remains of Singleton Bell, the col- | ored man who was killed on the grade crossing | at Virginia avenue, and 6th street Sunday morning, as described in yesterday's $1an, and afterward the jury heard the evidence of wit- | nesses to determine who, if any one, was re- sponsible for the man's death. The principal witness was a ‘man named George Webb, _ who was s from injuries received by | being struck by the same engine that killed — Singleton Bell, his companion. According to | his testimony both Bell and himself were per- dee on his way to attend | the of hissister ont in the country. ‘Webb was leading a dog and when they reached 6th street, where there is @ sharp gate on that side, next to the Adams ex- warehouse, was down. The gate on the east side was up. Witness and the reset were on the east side. ‘They stopped to let that | train pass, and while standing there the engine | came atound the curve on its way to the yard. | The whistlo was not blown, nor was the bell | sounded. Prosently the engine struck him and | knocked him agninst the fence. He did not let | go his dog. Witness thought he was uncon- scious for several minutes. When he regained | consciousness he asked for his companion, and | looking down the track he saw his horribly mu- | tilated body beside the fence. Witness did not | see the gateman at the time of the accident. | Witnens suid if had been any signal given | by the moviug locomotive the accident would not have happened. SARAH PAREER’S TESTIMONY.

Beckett gave evidence corroborating what was said by the engineer and fireman, and the jury returned a verdict “That the «nid Single- | ton Bell came to his death at Providence Hos- | pital about 9:15 a.m. October 23, 1862, from | ture of both thighs, the result of being | struck by a locomotive of the Baltimore and Potomac railrond. We find from the evidence that bis death was not due to any negligence on the part of the railroad employes. We re- gard this croming as a very dangerous one, which should be more fully protected.” — ALEXANDRIA. AN OLD SMALLPOX CASE. A smallpox case is pending in the corpora- tion court here, and the health office has not attempted to iso‘ate it, Last sufmmer when the schooner Strann was out in the stream off this elty with smallpox on board Mr. Willi Graves supplied the vessel with provisions. Capt. Strann insisted that as the vessel was de- tained ‘n the stream by the public authorities the authorities should ‘pay for the provisioning of the vessel; and at first the city officials were called upon to foot the bill, but of course they refused. Money due the vessel is attached in | the hands of tho consignees, and the courts are called upon to treat the smallpox case in this aspect. The trial is now awaiting the coming of witnesses. « A CHURCH NIGHT. Three churches were open last night, each with large congregations. At Christ Church Bishop Leonard of Nevadaand Utab and Bishop Walker of North Dakota addressed a congrega- tion on the frontier work of the church. At 8t.

It was stated that two of these gentlemen held not unimportant positions under the Cleveland administration, and sev- eral members of the advisory committee thought that these gentlemen were endeavoring to thereby further their own interests, leading the subscribers to believe that their _subscrip- tions were being placed to the credit of the Dis- trict advisory committee. Mr. Jas. L. Norris ‘was requested to ask from the national com- mittee a list of all subscriptions received from | the District. Mr. R. 8. Davis was placed at the | head of a committee appointed to interview | the members who had not returned their sub- scription books to the local advitory committee and ack them for the same. It was reported that while all the subscriptions had not yet been id those received amounted to’ several thousand doliare. The Jackson Democratic Aprociation had raised their original sabscrip- tion of €300 to 8500, and the Young Men's Democratic Club had also materially increased their subscription. It was stated that Mr. A. J. Joyce would pay the expenses of five of his Taken to their homes to vote for Cleveland and their salaries during their absence. Mr. Killeen of the nineteenth district, assert- {ing that men had been appointed on the com- mittee who had assisted the republican party, named Dennis Connell as one who had worked for the Fepubheans in 1872. After Mr. Norris bad stated that he would carry the funds raised to New York today the committee adjourned until next Saturday evening. ——— ARRESTED ON SUSPICION. A Colored Boy Charged With Attempted Axsault. There is considerableexcitement in the neigh- borheod of Harmon's and Stony Run stations, on the B. and P. railroad, growing out of an assault ona young married Indy, Mrs. Grace O'Neil, by « colored boy of nineteen or twenty years on Saturday afternoon. Mrs. O'Neil had been to Elkridge and wus walking along the road on her return, when the boy approached her with a gun and dog and called to her to halt. Thinking that he meant to rob her she offered not want either, but wanted her. At this point, fortunately, © young man ramed Watts ap- peared in sight and she called to him, when the colored boy made off. Yesterday afternoon Constable Harmon, who had received a descrip- tion of the man, arrested a colored boy living not far from the place as the party, and be will have a preliminary hearing today.

The favor’ with whith the “Fencing Master has been received elsewhere was found to be fully justified by the excellence of the work and its admirab! presentation, numbers, exhibiting Mr. de Koven's power and skill a8 a song writer, while in some of the con- certed passages ahigher order of constructive ability than he hud heretofore been credited with is manifest. This ix notably so in the | finele to the second act, which ix worked up toa remarkably successful’ and effective climax. The whole character of the score, however, marks an advance in Mr. de Koven’s ly gratifying to those who are pating distinctively Ameriean school of opera. The solo parte are intrusted to thoroughly competent people, the chief of whom is Miss Marte Tempest. hore | pleasing voice and excellent method find | scope in the role of Francesco. includes Misses Grace Golden and Bestie Cleve- |land, Mra. Pemberton Hincks, Messrs. Miche- lina, Hubert Wilke, Wm. Broderick, Charles Hopper and Jerome Sykes. On the last two | full the burden of the fun making, and thoy are found fully equal to the task. The book of the opera, by Mr. Harry Smith, is good, and is fully up to the standard of the best work of this librettist. The opera is splendidly put upon the stage, the scenery and costumes being of the richest description. The chorus is large in numbers, attractive in appearance and effective in singing and action. There is an enlarged orchestra, which is thoroughly effi- cient. “The Fencing Master" will be given every night daring the week and Wednesday | and Saturdsy afternoons. ‘Tar, NattonaL.—“A Texas Steer” was turned loose for the fourth time in Washington | last night and a big, roystering, laughing crowd was on hand to watch it. Very many of those ‘The cast also resent had been there” many a time fore, but that hasn't anything to do with it, This “Texas Steer” is one that never grows old and it ranks as veal every time the doors are open. ‘The cast of the play is changed but slightly, and that for the better, and the people are as vivacious andas interest ing in their parts as when they first began. Tim Marphy was called on for a speech and was equal to the occasion, and then followed calls | for Author Hoyt, and be eame bofore the cu tain and made a few remarks also. It wi gala night all around and the ‘Texas Steer” has the road. Harris’ Bisov TaeaTer.—A good dramatiza- tion of “Mr. Potter of Texas” was seen at the | Bijou last night. Almost every American reader is familiar with the story, and the genial character of the Hon. Samson Potter is remem- bered with a good deal of pleasure. Last night Mr. Harry Bradley assumed this role and be did it ina pleasing manner, handling the dif- ficult lines with # degree of force and natural- ness that was refreshing. Miss J ine Loam: as Lady Sarah Annerley made a decided hit. The rest of the company was good and the per- formance was even and consistent in all points. This was especially so regarding the scenery.
