Kinney of the White House squad testified that Kramer, who is a city guide, had made himself an intolerable nuisance about the White House grounds, insulting ladies and begging from visitors to the Executive Mansion. The officer said the man was of a very respectable family, but that he was a con- firmed nkard. and bad made himself so objectionable in the neighborhood of the White ‘House that several citizens had threatened to take the law in their own hands unless the man was punished. Kramer stated that drink was the cause of his trouble, but denied insulting | ladies.

Tweater—The Daly Com- pany appeared at the New National Theater last night and met with the hearty applacse of its audience. Some satirical comment has been made on tbe loftiuess of Mr.Daly’s pretentions, but when the intelligent and earnest effort he makes to live up to them is considered these comments mus" © honest admiration. “Love in Tandem” was the play last evening, and its presentation was distinguished by the Gaceful finish that is impossible without long study by expable people and by the close ad- herence to legitimate lines, which is expected ina Daly production. Miss Ada Reban has and received the confident esteem of the play-loving public. She is one of the ex- traordinary women who combine with per- souai charim a graceful manner, an intelligent perception as to the reading of her part and a | refined appreciation of what is humorous. The great requirement in legitimate comedy is a well-balanced east, and this is necessarily foand in Daly's present company. It is an organiza- tion that can be relied on for splendid presen- tations of some of the most delightful pla; known to the American stage. Hannis’ Buov Turater. of the season attended the Bijou last night to Witness the initial performance of **U and I” as given by those well-known comedians, Murphy and Flynn. The play is a satire on New York apartment houses. There is no plot, but the author bas drawn some clever «itua- tions, which, in the hands of a good company, provoke roars of laughter. The play is re- plete with songs and dances and is well worth seeing. ‘The company is good threughout. Miss Lara Thorn, the daughter of the late Owen Thorn, publisher of the Evening Ex-| press of this city, does some good work and evinces the possession of considerable dramatic ability. Kenway’s Lrcecw Turater.—This is the clo-ing week of the regular season at Kernan’s, and the management bus provided a clever en tertainment in the London Gaiety Giris combi- nation. The performance opened last evening with a musical melange entitled “The Dress Kebearsal,” in which a bevy of pretty faces ap- peared in gorgeous costumes and sang and danced. Mabel Arnold proved herselt quite a musician, Keating aud Flynn were good in an Irish sketch and La Salle and Vedder. the Span- ish dancers, were excellent. ‘Those aerial won- ders lately with Barnam & Bailey, the Clark Razillians, gave an exciting performance, and @ musical burlesque entitied “A King for a Day’ closed the entertainment.

James Ryan was before Judge Kimball yes terday charged with disorderly conduct. Mr. H. Strausburger of 404 7th street northwest and | his son complained that Ryan, who is employed by a firm just opposite, cried his goods in such a loud and penetrating voice that they. their help and customers were greatly annoyed and disturbed. They had but one motive in prosecuting Mr. Ryan, and that was the com- fort and peace of their customers and them- selves. The defendant denied that his cries disturbed any one, and contended that the prosecution was inaugurated with the sole purpose of pre- venting him from engaging in his business. Mr. ‘Shillington, representing Mr. Ryan, | claimed that the charge was not one of disor- derly conduct, and denied that the law applied | in such a case. “Bowery methods cannot prevail in Washing- ton, Mr. Shiliington.” said Jadge Kimball. “If all otaer merehants in the methods the people woul: be up in arms. However, ax this is the man’s first offense, I | will impose fine of $10 and suspend the sen- tence.” — Officers Elected.

Order of Commander W. H. Michael of the Union Veterans’ Union. Gen. W. H.

General Orders, No. 5. 1, The commander-in-chief calls attention of comrades in general orders to the beautiful custom of remembering our fallen comrades on Memorialday by appropriate ceremonies. He pertinently reminds us that our ranks are being thinned at the rate of about 15,000 annually, nd recommends that such commands as ate unable to meet on cemetery grounds todecorate &raves meet in their respective hulls end bold j such services as will properly commemorate the gallant dead. The departmen : commander urges every comrade to take part if possible in memorial exercises on the 30th of May. 2. The national president of the Woman's Veteran Kelief Union in general orders says: “The brave women, the mothers, the wives, danguters, who fought the hard battles at home during those awful years of darkness and de- epair. will honor their beloved dead so long as they have the strength to totter to their graves and garland them with flowers.” With the pa- triotic, loving women of the land let us join in strewing flowers upon the graves of the Union dead, and in the ceremonies commemorative of the heroes who sealed their devotion to their country’s cause with their death. We who re- muin owe to these a debt of gratitude,such as he owes to him who saves for him life, liberty, home and friends. Had these not died the cause of human liberty would have well nigh perished from thoearth. ‘The Union destroyed would have lett the enthralied milions of ihe world helpless, like the mariner from whose gaze the north star bad perished forever. 8.

The work of the health officer in looking into the question of poor or adulterated milk is still being conducted ina manner that is calculated to make additional business for the Police Court. Prof. Hird, the chemist, has enough milk on hand every day to supply a dairy lunch room, and many of the samples procured by Inspector Ott show that the mi:k is not at all what it should be according to the standard set by Prof. Hird, and in the near future some of the denlers will have to answer for their busi- neésé transactions, DINT IN THE MILK. Prof. Hird has been kept busy examining the milk to ascertain its degree of purity, aud now there 18 a new phase put upon the work. In re- cent investigations he discovered that not only did many of the samples show that th-y bad undergone skimming, coloring or adulteration, but some of them -howed the presence of an ex- tremely large amount of stable manure and filth, showing, the inspector save, improper care n milking and straining The producers, he says, are to blame for this stute of affairs, and of them have been notitied to be more | careful in tne future. Now that this fact bas been made kaown, some of the locai dealers are using strainers after they receive the milk, and. inn case where two ten-gallon cans of the fluid were strained, Prof. Hird says a large handful of such dirt was found. THE AMOUNT OF CREAM VARIABLE. In Prof. Hird’s laboratory yesterday @ num- ing milk from as many different dairies rested on the table, and the amount of cream on the surface was nothing uniform. On one sample there was more an inch of cream, while ouly one-eighth of an inch was to be found on another, Some of the samples showed an apparent dis- coloration that seemed to indicate the presence of anatto, but Prof. Hird said that the color was the result of the food and uot of artificial coloring matter. The cows, he thought, had probably bee ‘turned out’ ina rye or wheat field, as such food, he said, would give the milk'an extremely rich color. A GREAT IMPROVEMENT SHOWN. ‘The milk, said the inspector, shows a great improvement over what it was when the work was commenced a few weeks ago, although he saysit is not yet what it should be, When the lk shows 3.5 per cent of fats, said the chem- the quality is at least fair. With care and selection of stock, however, difficult to geta higher percentage thin stated. One dealer. he said, is endeavoring to procure milk that will showat least 4 per cent of fat. He is having ananalyeix made of the milk received, and when the fats show 4 per cent or more he will pay 20 cents a gallon for it, an advance of 4 cents, Speaking of different cattle, snid Prof. ; the Jerseys give milk as rich as any other herd of cattle, and they give as much milk during the course of the eur as any other. Farmers, however, do not like to keep them with other stock, for the reason that they are reputed fighters, and it iv not an unusual thing for them to break the horns of other cattle and otherwise injure them. He also spoke of the Holstein cattle. Last week, he said, he bad oc- casion to analyze milk from an’ “advanced registered” He i cent of fats, wi cin showed 3.3. ‘Yhe same dav he ana lyzed a sample of the fluid from a Jersey cow anc it contained 4.3 per cent of fats.
