Dear Sir—It is my duty to inform you of the death of James R. Moulton, near. this city. During iis sickness he requested that, in case of death, you should be informed, and that his personal property, including a sealed package of documents, should be sent to you. Before I was informed of ‘his death, the undertaker secured possession of this prop- erty, to secure the balance due for Mr. Moul- ton’s funeral. He has refused to deliver this property, without an order from you, and payment of the balance. This amounts, in United States money, to $24. You will, therefore, please sign and send to me an order, in English, directing the undertaker to turn the property over to me. You have the right to sign this order. I inclose a clipping in which the man ad- vertises the goods for sale. I want to make it hot for this party, if possible. The most valuable articles are: One gold watch and chain; one emerald scarf pin; one diamond ring; three diamond: shirt studs, and two Smith and Wesson revolvers; also, two trunks containing clothing,photographs and papers. It is the general opinion that Moulton ‘was an assumed name. I am informed that his ranch is worth from $8,000 to $12,000. I must learn as soon as possible who are Moulton’s heirs. When you examine the sealed package you will, without question, learn Moulton’s true name, then please send their names to me. If you wish you can send the $24 to me, and I will redeem the property, and at once, ship it to you; or you can send the money to Gongales. Should the property be sold, there will be mahy heavy government fees and the bal- ance Hable to be claimed by bogus credi- tors, besides the certainty of the sacrifice of a forced sale. Do not send a draft, or an order, as the banks at present will not accept them. The cheapest and most convenient way is to mail the currency, In an envelope directed exactly as per inclosed. It would be weil for the time to send some person here with a power of attorney, in or- der to sell the ranch. Prompt and explicit observance by you of these suggestions will assist me greatly in this matter.

Numerous objections and complaints have been raised, during recent years, against Chartered by special act of Congress the absence, in the regular course of high Jan., 1867, and acts of Oct., 1890, and Febd., 180% exercise for young men. A number of years ago, steps were taken to bring about such an addition to the course, but the pro- moters of the project were unable to ac- complish their end, and since then the only exercise provided for the boys is that af- forded by the afternoon military drills, which occur twice a week, and which are only open to those boys who desire to con- form with military requirements. The young ladies are provided for in this re- spect, and each week receive excellent in- struction in calisthenics, but those boys outside of the regiment have not been con- sidered. Mr. E. W.

After once entering, a withdrawal will not be allowed. The periods of instruction will be confined to the study hours of the pupils, will be a half hour in length, and will be so arranged that each boy will take the exercise at least two times and not more than five times a week. Until more apparatus can be purchased, the exercises will be confined to the horizontal bars and dumb-bells. Ac- tion was taken Friday in the Eastern, pre- paratory to forming the regular classes and making out the athletic programs for each week. If all of the arangements can be arranged by Monday, it is expected that the first lessons will be given then. There are now about a hundred boys who have hand- ed in their names for enrollment, and it is probable that as soon as the system has been in effect about a week, and the ex- cellent and worthy object of the project is apparent to all, the remainder of the boys will be only too desirous of entering. Mr. Williams will be the instructor of the classes, and will do everything in his power to make the scheme a success, and have it instituted in the regular course at the other high schools before the termination of the school year. As far as the Eastern is con- cerned, it will be considered on the same level with the recitations, and the same at- tention and interest will be required from those entering. ————.——_ Real Estate Matters.

What They Think of the Results of the New Assessment. The results of the new assessments, as shown in the table printed in The Star, were examined with some care by property own- ers. While the percentage of increase ts Somewhat higher than it was supposed that the revised assessment would show, still every one knows that it is not so high as it would have been if the first assessment had been allowed to stand. After all, the average citizen is interested first in the amount of the asssessment on his individ- ual ownings and then whether a fair ratio exists between what he has to pay and what his neighbor pays. The inequality of taxation rather than the amount consti- tutes the main bulk of the complaints that are heard in regard to an assessment of taxes. Citizens as a rule have not had time to examine in detail the new figures, and therefore it {s not common to heay much talk on the subject. —_——— Saved the Boy’s Life, ‘To the Baitor of The Evening Star: While a passenger on car No. ST of the Columbia line this morning at 9:45 I wit- nessed an act of heroism that should not go unnoticed.
