Some months ago Annie E. Northcutt, who was known here as Stella Horton, died at the corner of 13th and D streets northwest, leaving an estate, real and per- sonal, valued at $10.0 or more. She left Mrs. Dugan, and nieces her personal prop- erty and to J. H. McCann her real estate. This will was filed for probate by Mr. Joseph Shillington, as counsel. Subse- quently another will, purporting to have been executed in Brookiyn some months subsequent, was filed by Mz. L. A. Bailey, by which the deceased left her estate to her brothers and sisters and named John | McGrain as executor. The last named filed @ caveat to the first will, and issues being framed thereon, a jury sustained the Du- gan-McCann instrument. Notwithstanding Mr. McGrain presented the second will, and publication was made for the parties | at Interest to appear. Some months since @ young man. George H. Northcutt, living in Maryland, iearned that a will of a party | of his name was being contested, and he came over and made some inquiry, and | finally became satisfied that it was his | mother’s will. Yesterday he made his ap- | ance in the Probate Court, through D. W. Glassie, and filed ‘a protest | inst the probate of the will and an an- | swer to the rule to show cause why It should not be probated. ‘He states that he ts about twenty-three years of age, and about 1877 he was turned over by his ‘mother to the Henry Watson Home in Baltimore, and in a few months | was bound out toa farmer in Harford | county, Maryland, his mother having stip- | ulated that until he was eighteen years of age the mother would not communicate with or try to find his address, and he States that the beneficiaries in both wills represented to his mother that he was dead. r. —_——- THE CAUSE OF MISSIONS Remembered at the Washington Gro Camp Meeting.

SATURDAY. AUGUST 19, 1893—SIXTEEN PAGES. —60e—0€08—@Q0SSSSSSa Nes PRACTICAL FIELD WORK. Which Was the Feature of Company Cs, Engineer Corps, Encampment. The encampment of company C, engineer corps, District National Guard, at Harper's Ferry was the first event of the kind in the history of the organization. Now that it ts over, and the officers and privates can look back over the record of the work ac- complished, they realize that it is one to be proud of. A great deal of signaling practice was had, the company being provided with he- liographs and flash lanterns, and aided by Capt. Ireland and Sergt. Lichty of com- pany B. The men became familiar with the Morse alphabet, and acquired consid- erable freedom and ease of movement in handling the instruments. Four gabions Were constructed under the direction of Lieut. Middleton. The squads went to the woods and procured their own materials, getting practice in that, as well as in the actual construction of the gabions. Grape- vines were used instead ot willow, which could not be obtained. A magnificent flag pole was felled, brought to camp, painted, erected, and now stands as a monument to the industry and ability of company C. The telegraph wire reel, which was designed by Capt. Averill and’ Private Freeman, and of which so much was expected, was un- fortunately broken in transit to Harper's Ferry. It was not repaired until the day before the camp broke up, when it was used with perfect satisfaction. A Charlo- wois non-insulated telephone was carried up to be experimented with, and it was used with such entire success that once, when a young lady was at one end of the line, she requested Private Freeman, who was at the other, not to stand so close to the "phone, as his mustache tickled her. Another story about the telephone is that |a farmer tried to roll up the wire to take home with him, but was discovered in time to save the wire. Barometer readings were made by Sergt. Chandler for several elevations around Harper's Ferry, and their heights will be computed hereafter. The topography @f three points was taken by Corp. Steward with transit, level and plane table, and will be used as a test of the plottings of those same points from photographs. The re- sults of these experiments are awaited with great interest, as photography may revolutionize surveying. Private Stevens gave instruction in swim- ming and the art of resuscitation, and the boys Improved thelr opportunities to de- velop and increase their swimming powers. Private Tegethoff taught the company how to tle ropes. Only about a half dozen of the most common knots were taught, as they will answer all the ordinary pur- The company was provided with 1,000 ball cartridges, and considerable practice was had with revolvers. The last two or three days were given up to this practice. Severai of the company went out at dif- ferent times with the students of the Cor- coran Scientific School for practice in rall- road surveying. Four curves of the pro- Une were staked out and notes taken, m which the topography of that section will be plotted. And, in addition, the new tunnel of the B. and O. was inspected by the company, and through the kindness of the chief ‘engineer they Inspected. also the plans of the {mprovements to the tracks, the new bridge and the new de- pot. Lieut. Holt, adjutant of the corps, and Sergt. Chandler, with a squad detailed to assist them, made a night survey of about elghty acres, while being hunted for by a sq under Sergt. Dennison. The map made was very good. giving even the points = oad ison's flash lanterns were stationed. A new feature of the report of this en- campment to the general commanding will be photographs of the men at the various kinds of work, taken by Capt. Averill with his snap-shot camera. In addition to the engineering work the company has conformed more or less to the manual of guard duty, and has im- proved wonderfully in its drill, as might be expected from two drills each day. ‘The adoption of the white duck pantaloons proved itself a most happy idea. The company hasn't the dress uniform as yet, but it makes a fine appearance in white ducks, not to mention the comfort of them. pope ale WORKINGMEN'S DEMONSTRATION. m Army of the Unemployed Said to Be Coming to Washington. A St. Louis special says that, beginning today, committees of the unemployed in the various labor associations will take up their station at the Union depot and the freight yards of the various roads running into St. Louis from the west, meet all per- sons looking for work, explain the sttua- tion and ask the traveler to proceed to Washington to make a demonstration be- fore Congress. Socialistic circulars urging this action have been scattered broadcast, not only in St. Louls, but in every large railroad town in the west. In every city to which the cir- cular has been sent some one person has been put In charge of the work. Besides the western movement, the lead- ers claim that New York, Philadelphia, Brooklyn and Boston will send numbers to Washington to make an appeal to Con- gress. It is expected, says the dispatch, Yhat 6000 men will be gathered at the cap- ———— AMUSEMENTS.

Argument Ended and Adjournment ‘Taken to Rest the Jurorn. After The Star's report of the Shenn murder trial at Trenton closed yesterday ex-Senator Vanderbilt held that Mrs. Shann’s conduct was perfectly natural when the three strangers came and di: emboweled her son. Woman-like, she knew nothing about autopsies or postmortem ex- aminations, and having been chided by her physician for having already refused to al- iow one insurance agent to see the body, it was natural,imagining that these strangers were from the company, for her to allow them to ascend her stairs without erying out. She did not know that the company could not perform the autopsy itself. She knew {t was an unseemly hour, and she demurred, but finding she was helpless, rhe made no further objection. Counsel finished his argument with a per- oration, and was followed by Judge Chaun- cey H. Beasley. Judge Beasley fintshed his address at 1 o'clock, and court adjourned for an hour and a quarter. Judge Abbett then announced thet he would defer to the wishes of the jury, an deliver the charge this morning. eral of the jurors said they were quite ex- hausted, and wanted rest. sais —— No Yellow Fever at Pensacola. ‘The representatives of the health depart- ment of the state of Florida have an. nounced that after a thorough and careful inspection of Pensacola they have failed to find the existence of any case of yellow fever or of any infectious or contagious disease whatever.

In the British house of commons vester- day Mr. Thomas G. Bowles, conservative, member for Lynn, asked the governjaent whether the award of the Bering sea tri- bunal of arbitration imposed upon Great Britain the obligation to forbid pelagic seal- ing by British subjects at any time what- ever within a sixty-mile zone around the Pribyloff Islands. He also desired to be in- formed whether the award of the tribunal forbade British sealers to use firearms, nets or explosives in their vocation, and whether it established c close season to be observed by pelagic sealers and further restraints upon British sealers, while it imposed no obligation on the United States to restrict Sealing on land at any time. Further, Mr. Bowles said he desired to be informed ‘whether the effect of the award would not be to give a practical monopoly to the sealing industry to the Americans and deprive British subjects of any share in_that industry. Sir Edwin Grey, parliamentary secretary of the foreign office, replying to the ques- tions put by Mr. Bowles, said it was not considered that the effect of the award would be to give the Americans a monupoly of the industry. True, he added, the use of firearms in the capture of seals had been forbidden, a close season had been estab- Ushed and only sailing, vessels would be al- wed to engage in sealing. The award, however, imposed certain ob- ligations upon the United States as well as upon Great Britain, and he could not ad- mit that these obligations would act to the rejudice of British interests, as Mr. Bowles Rad sugyested by his questions. So SHE WAS OF NOBLE BLOOD. A New York Suicide a Daughter of Baron von Stelzberg of Vienna. No one has claimed the body of Josephine Stelzberg, who on Tuesday morning com- mitted suicide by shooting herself in Cen- tral Park, says the New York World. Her death was the end of a romantic life. She was the daughter of Baron von Stelz- berg of Vienna, at whose behest she mar- ried an Austrian officer whom she did not love. Previous to that she had become fascinated with another man, a citizen of Vienna. Eighteen months ago she left her husband and came to this country, resum- ing the use of her maiden name. Ten months later she hired three rooms on a top floor in Brooklyn. She was’ employed by Henry Opper, trimming manufacturer of No. % Spring ‘street, doing considerable work in the evening at her home. Six months ago she received $260 from her grandmother in Vienna. She put it in a savings bank and added $200 to it by dint of hard economy. Five months ago a strange man began to visit her. It appears that he was the love of her youth, for whose sake she had left her husband, and who had followed her from Vienna. He visited her twice a week for about two months, and then ceased to come. He had disappeared, taking with him the $450 belonging to Miss von Stelzberg, which she had intended to use in furnishing a home which they could eccupy together. His desertion and scoun- drelism broke her heart. She kept almost entirely within her room after that. Work failed her. She was unable to pay her rent and was without money to buy food. She left a pitiful note for her landlord, in Fitch she begged him not to disclose the fact that she owed him money, as it would disgrace her, a ———_-e+_____ BROUGHT DISGRACE ON GOTHAM. Aa Allentown Fireman Who Went to New York and Became Drank. Peter McGee of Allentown, Pa., was fined 30 by Justice Martin in the Tombs po- lice court in New York yesterday for being drunk and disorderly, Patrolman Belz of the Church street squad found McGee crazy drunk on West street late Thursday night, and when he tried to bring him to the station rouse Me- Gee fought like an Indian and tore the officer's uniform. When arraigned in court McGee, who is @ respectable looking man, said: “Your honor, I belong to the Hibernian Hook and Ladder Company of Allentown, Pa., and I was at the Coney Island con- vention. I missed the train that the other members of my company went home on, and I drank a good deal and don’t remem: ber what occurred. I have a milk route home, and I'll lose my customers if I don’ wet back to it.” “I have a good mind to send you to the island for a month,” sald Justice Martin, sternly. “You came here on a visit, and you have taken advantage of any courtesy extended to you. You bring disgrace on this city, and other people think that New Yorkers ‘commit these offenses, shen, in reelity, they are committed by sti gers. T'll let'you off easily and fine you $10.” McGee did not have the money and he was locked up in the Tombs. BABY 4 SOLID SORE TRIED EVERYTHING WITHOUT RELIEF. REST NIGHT OR DAY.
