To the Editor of The Evening Star: As one of the audience at Metzerott Hall last night I want to protest against the insufficiency of its entrance and exit. I was at least ten minutes after the performance had ended in getting to the door where the tickets were taken, and those who were seated fear to the stage were very nearly fifteen minutes in reach- ing the street. The whole plan of the entrance is wrong and ought not to have been passed by the building authori- ties. Tn the first placo the steps leading from the strect are so steep as to make them difficult to climb, while if there was a panic in the hail the people would be pushed from the top step to the sidewalk without touching any one of the steps. Then there is a short flight of stops from this to the upper landing, and theae are so concealed from view when oue is coming out of the hall that there is positive danger of falling. The entire arrangement is wretched, and it seems to me that the authorities had sufficient warning when this building was being erected to we that everything was made safe for the hundreds who would occupy the hall. The Commissioners and Senator McMillan ought to investigate and act at once. Crrizex, Taken to Maryland at Last. Detective John Lloyd of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad. with Officer Horne, took John Jones, a well-known colored man, to Ellicott City, Md., yesterday. Jones was arrested here some months ago on a bench warrant is- sued under the requisition of Goy. Brown of Maryland, based on @ charge of larceny of a watch at Irving Park near Annapolis Junction in July last, and being taken be- fore the chief Justice was ordered to be turned over to Mr. Lloyd. A writ of habeas corpus, sued out by Mr. Sillers, his counsel, prevented the officer from taking him, and from the order dismissing the writ an appeal to the General Term was taken and Jones gave bail. The General Term decided that the prisoner was properly ordered to the Custody of ‘tho Maryland officer, but” Jones then could not be found and fora couple of months the officers with a bail piece had been endeavoring to locate him. Last week Ofticers Ed Horne and J. J. Sullivan got a clue, and on Saturday, going over to Jackson City, found and took him into custody and brought'him to the city. Yestérday Mr. Lloyd came over and the prisoner was turned over to him. It is suid that there are four watch lifting cases pending in Maryland against him. eae Exguise line of onyx and gilt tables at Craig & Harding's, 13th and F streets.—Adot. — A Surprise for Mr. Justice Harlan. Monday evening being the occasion of Mr. Jus- tice Harlan’s last lecture to the Columbian law class before going to Europe, as United States commissioner on the Alaskan seal commission, the law students presented him with a fine gold-headed cane. Mr. Keller, on behalf of the school, made the preventation’ in a very well-chosen speech, in’ which he expressed the regret of the school in losing the lectures of the justice, but at the same time an appreciation of the distinguished honor conferred ‘upon him by the government in chosing him to represent it in so grave a matter betwoen two great nations, and closing it Voyage and safe being, next to his judicial, the most profitable and of his life. Ue paid a glowing tribu legal profession, and, thanking the The Public Ledger building, at the southwest corner of 6th and Chestnut streets, Philadel- phia, was badly damaged last evening by fire and water. The damage by fire was confined almost entirely to the composing room, situated on the top floor, but a torrent of water poured down through the building, flooding every floor in the structure. The building is cighty-eight feet front on | Chestaut street and 235 feet depth on 6th street, and is a five-story brown-stone building, | with a mansard roof. The business office is at the corner of 6th aad Chestnut streets. As the fire gained headway and promised to destroy the building, every one around the est ment, volunteers from other news- | papers and the police, turned in and began to carry all perishable articles out of the burni structure. The files of the paper were saved, and the many rare and costly articles in Mr. Childs’ private offices were all carried out. In the meantime a dozen streams of water had been turned on the fire in the cellar. and the flames there were soon extinguished. The flames in the composing room, however, had been creating great havoc, and at 7 o'clock the fire burst through the mansard roof and shot up ina great column toward the sky. Tt was just about this time that Mr. Childs and Anthony J. Drexell, the banker, arrived at the scone. Mr. Childs posted himself in the doorway of the court house, across the street from the burning building, and calmly re- signed himself to watch his building go up in flames. When invited to enter a neighboring office he declined and said that he liked to watch the fire. He assumed =e of his em- ployes and directed them what to do in the way of providing for the issuing of « paper today y 7:80 the firemen had gotten the flames under control, and all danger of the total de- struction of the building had passed While the firemen were at work they were spurred to greater efforts still by the announce- ment that Mr. Childs intended to distribute $5,000 among them for their prevention of the total destruction of his building. While the fire was still burning fiercely the work of getting out today’s paper was going on. The city department was removed to the board of" trade room in the Drexel building, and the reporters turned in their copy of the day's do- ings of a great city as usual.

CURED BY CUTICURA REMEDIES, My baby, when two months old, had a breaking out with what the doctor cailed eczema. Her head, arm: feet and hands were each one solid sore. I tried every- thing, but neither the doctors nor anything else did her any wood. We could get nu rest day or night with her. In my extremity I tried the CUTICURA REME- DIES, but I confess I had no fatth in them, for I had never seen themtried. To my great su@prise in one Week's time after beginning to use the CUTICURA REMEDIES the sores were well, but I continued to use the RESOLVENT for alittle while and now she is as fat a baby as you would like to ¥ee and us sound as adoliar. Ibelieve my baby would have diea if 1 had not tried CUTICURA REMEDIES. I write this that every mother with a baby like mine can feci confl- dent that there is a medicine that will cure the worst eczema, and that iyedicine is the CUTICURA REMEDIES, _ Mrs, BETTIE BIRKNER, Lockhart, Tex.

Don't mistake place. ate ssicot acamat Another Trick of the Trade. Peculiar methods are sometimes adopted by the furniture trade to move undesirable stock and asa last resort the pervices of the anc- tioneer are called in. Instancos are well au- thenticated of unsuccessful effort to dispose of “left overs” by extensive advertising at “cut” rates, but the “stickers” could not be budged, and rather than give them longer storage room they have been hustled to the anctioneer's and disposed of for anything offered. Constant repetition of this feature in business is bound to result in disaster. Were it possible to recon) auch losses by adding the difference to fresh sales the purchasing public would foot the bill; Dut the purchasing public is wary and is not Mkely to pay one houre $5.26 for an article that can obtained at my establishment for &5 on “time” payments. Marking up prices today £0 as to discount them tomorrow no longer de- ceives, but rather tends to create suspicion even where the reductions are genuine and legitimate. I want to hold the confidence of the community—and I believe I can do it by asking @ fajr profit on the cost of saleable Pur- niture. Joux Ruppex, The Accommodator, It 513 Beventh street northwest.
