Report on the Affairs of the-Tenleytown Accidents From Reckless Driving, and a Lost Pocket Book. President Willson M. Offutt of the George- town and Tenleytown Railroad Company has issued a report showing the financial condition of the corporation, and Mr. John P. Ayres of Baltimore, an expert aceount- ant, formerly with the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal Company, has certified to its accu- racy. z ‘The gross receipts of the company from April 1, 1890, to December 31, 1892, were $99,378.62, and the expenditures during the same period, $96,069.69, leaving a surplus of $3,303.83. From January 1, 189, to August 31 the gross receipts were $28,240.11, and the outlay, $26,420.34, leaving a profit of $1,829.77. To this surplus the cost of certain material on hand is added and the amount is there- by increased to $4,329.77. Them is added the gain for the first thirty-three months,which makes the entire surplus during the road's existence $7,632.60. While we owe $5,000, says the president, in an annexed address, our road has cost us $265,045.23, and only $200,000 worth of stock was issued. He further asks the stockholders to notify the company at once as to the number of bonds in the new issue wanted. The re- cently expressed dissatisfaction of the stockholders brought forth the above.

John Conley has reported to the station that while “taking a little blackberry” in one of Rosslyn’s “speak easies” on Sun- day afternoon he laid down a pocketbook containing $17, and has not seen it since. He asked the assistance of the seventh precinct officers, but Rosslyn being out of their jurisdiction , all they could do was to refer him to Shefift Veitch. Many Accidents. Many complaints are being made about the fast dciving on the Conduit road. Scarcely a day passes without *he report of some accident in consequence thereof. To prevent further personal Injuries and collisions as far as possible the police have been ordered to keep the strictest lookout and arrest every man who drives his horse out of a usual pace. On Sunday last there were three bicycles, two vehicles and one man seriously injured. Shorter Paragraphs. Near the Pennsylvania avenue bridge yesterday, Washington side, a horse and cart rolled down an embankment s-venty- five feet high. All went into. the creek, but a hasty cutting of the harness relieved the horse and he scrambled out, after having been nearly drowned. A corps of hydraulic engineers on Satur- day last visited the Great Falls and care- fully inspected things about there. It is said by a gentleman who questioned them that a project s on foot to harness the falls. Most all the land in the vicinity belongs to the estate of the late Benj. F.

Pawnee Bill and His Trou Excellent Exh The Pawnee Bill Wild West Show began a three days’ engagement yesterday ufter- noon at the park at the corner of New York avenue and North Capitol street. ‘The threatening state of the weather and the lowering skies undoubtedly deterred many people from attending, but even as it was there was a crowd present that filled all the seats and enjoyed the show im- mensely from beginning to end. Pawnee Bill, who is otherwise known as Ma}. Lillie, and his interesting group of frontiersmen have been traveling through Canada and New England this summer, and have been received with the greatest enthusiasm. They are now working their way toward the south, and may possibly go as far as ‘Cuba. From beginning to end Pawnee Bill's per- formance is a genuine exposition of the manners, dangers and pleasures of life in the west in the days before through express trains made traveling across the prairies the comfort that it is today, when trappers and pathfinders led weary’ bands‘ of pio- neers across the trackless wastes and the wily Indian did his level best with bullet and scalping knife to keep them from com- ing. ‘Co show all these different phases of life requires a troupe that in point of num- bers goes a’ beyond an ordinary theatri- cal company. There are cowboys whose claim to the title is more than proved by the daring of their deeds on horseback ani with the pistol and the lariat; a band of more than a score of Indians, Mexican vequeros, lady experts with gun and sad- dle, wild Texas steers, buffalo and bucking bronchos, Among the dramatic features of the entertainment were an attack upon thi Deadwood coach, the burning of a settler's cabin and a graphic reproduction of the famous Mountain Meadow massacre. There is some very elever shooting by Pawnee Bill, Miss Lillie and Professor Covey. Oth- er faraous personages ure ‘Thomas Webb and Senor Francisco, the great ropers, and old Iodine, the veteran trapper who’ was with Kit Carson and Fremont in the early days of the west. The park in which the show {g given is large envush to allow of a big performance, and all the seats for spec- tators are under cover. eae Counter Charges of Cruelty. W. B, Dalrymple, who has charge of the stables of the National Sanitary Company, was in the Police Court today charged by Agent Paine of the Humane Society with cruelty to animals. Mr. Dairymple in turn charged Agent Paine with a similar offense. Some days ago Agent Paine found an al- leged disabled horse drawing a garbage cart, and he permitted the driver to con- tinue to the garbage plant before he had it taken from the cart. For permitting the alleged disabled ani- mal to draw the cart to the plant Mr. Dal- rymple charges Mr. Paine with cruelty. ‘The cases will be tried in the Police Court tomorrow.

In one case Emma Heynes, a Afteen-year-old girl, figured. She is an or- phan child, her mother having died about two months ago. Previous to that time the child was in the orphan asylum, and frem there she went in the country. Because of her complaint of ill treatment her mother took her home. Since her mother’s death the child has lived at the house of her aunt, Mrs. Isabella Rudd, but she seems dissatis- fied with her home, Mrs. Rudd thinks, be- cause of outside influence, and as she wants to do the best thing possible for the child she appealed to the court, in order to have the girl put in charge of @ legal guardian. Judge Alilier made an order turning the girl over to the board of children’s guar- dians, and it is likely that Agent Lewis will turn her ever to Mrs. Rudd. in the other case Agent Lewis asked the court to make an order turning over a four- months-old colored child named Lottie Scott. The child’s mother, the agent charg. ed, failed to properly provide for the child, and the court made the order asked. ise tora IMPORTANT vic DUTY.
