The Famous Evangelist Expected to Hold a Series of Meetings in Wash- ington. From the present prospects it is expected that Washington will have an opportunity of hearing the well-known evangelist, Mr. Moody, some time this winter. For quite a while the matter has been agitated among our ministers and mission workers, and the second meeting held in the board room of the Central Union Mission was most en- couraging. Various ministers and others interested were present, Rev. Dr. Power of the Vermont Avenue Christian Church presiding, and Rev. Mr. Alexander acting as secretary. The matter was talked over from ali standpoints, and the opinion was unani- mous in favor of inviting Mr. Moody, if sufficient funds can be secured. Pledges were made amounting to nearly $1,500,which is estimated at about one-half of the money needed. The expenses will be large, as a theater or large hall wiil have to be rented for a few weeks.Dr. Philip Williams of Bal- timore, who has twice before helped to se- cure Mr. Moody's services, advised that the financial matter be pressed no further than to secure sufficient funds to inaugu- rate the movement. In Baltimore it was estimated that $3,000 would be needed, and although only $1,000 was raised beforehand over $4,000 was secured before the close of the meeting. Dr. Williams said there would be no troubie about the money after Mr. Moody had arrived. A resolution has been adopted for circu- lation and signature among the pastors, providing: “That we, pastors of the churches of Washington. D. C., unite in inviting Mr. Dwight L. Moody to hold a series of meet- ings in this city, of not less than four weeks’ duration, and we pledge him our cordial support and co-operation.” A committee of seven laymen, represent- ing seven denominations, has been ap- pointed to secure the signatures of the pas- tors of each denomination, respectively, and to call another meeting when their work is done. The committee is as follows: William R. Woodward, Percy S. Foster, A. S. Caywood, oO. B. Brown, E. L. Bugbee, Henry E. Pel- lew, A. G. Johnson and George Ryneai, jr. The committee was authorized to add mem- bers of other denominations and fill any vacancies’ which might occur in their number. The work has already been act- ively begun. > GUILTY OF ASSAULT. Edward Norrell, Who Shot a Compan- fon, Sentenced Today. On Saturday morning, the 16th of last September, Edward Norrell, alias Edward Norris, a colored boy about seventeen years old, invited another colored boy, James Jackson, aged fourteen, to go bird hunting with him. Jackson accepted the invita- tion, and they started for the neighborhood of 17th and C streets northwest. Norrell had a small rifle with him and on the way amused himself by firing it at some boys. He then turned it upon his companion, firing at him several times, the last shot striking Jackson in the corner of the left eye and lodging at the base of the brain, where, in the opinion of the attending phy- sician, it will remain until death. Yesterday afternoon Norrell’s trial was begun before Judge Cole in Criminal Court No. 2 upon the charge of assault with in- tent to kill. The Jackson boy testified that Norrell asked him if he would give him leave to fire at him, and when he replied “No, I isn’t ready to die yet," Norrell re- marked, “God —— you, I'll do it«leave or no leave.” Another witness testified that he heard one of the shots, saw Jackson running away, bleeding, and heard him erying “My God, he’s shot me.” When asked why he had shot Jackson Norrell replied: “You can’t do anything with me, mister. He giv’ me leave to shoot him, an’ I did it.” Then he ran away and was given up two weeks later by Patrol Driver Shields of the third precinct, who, it was testified, had known all that time of Norrell’s hiding place, and who, it was also testified, only surrendered him after being threatened with being reported to the police depart- ment in not doing so. Shields, it was stat- ed, was discharged a short time later for his connection with the matter. Norrell was placed on the stand and his counsel left his examination to the court, y was of unsound contending that the mind. Judge Cole subjected him to a lengthy examination and while Norrell ap- peared stupid and indifferent answered the judge's inquiries in an intelligent manner. This morning two former employers of Norrell testified that while he was not par- ticularly bright he performed his duties in- telligently. The jury took but a very few minutes to decide that Norrell was guilty only of assault. In giving the boy the full penalty for assault, 11 months and 29 days in fail, Judge Cole remarked that the jury had given him all the mercy he deserved. Had the matter, said the court, beengleft to his determination he would have had no hesi- tancy in finding the boy guilty of assault with intent to kill, for, in the court’s opin- fon. he possessed intelligence enough to make him aware that he was doing wrong. “This sentiment which seeks to excuse such persons,” concluded Judge Cole, “is not only wrong, but it is also dangerous to the community, and had this defendant been found guilty as indicted I would have felt no reluctance in sending him to the penitentiary.” —_—>__. AMUSEMENTS, “Twelfth Night.”—Last night Miss Julia Marlowe was seen as Viola in “Twelfth Night,” and by her graceful impersonation satisfied a large audience at the Academy of Music. Her work was not dif- ferent from that done in the same part heretofore, showing the same care- ful attention both to text and action that has caused her Viola to be so highly praised. The company was seen to good advantage. Professor Ewell's Lectures.—Professor J. L. Ewell will deliver a series of three {l- lustrated lectures at the First Baptist Church, corner of 16th and O streets west, the first taking place tomorrow even- ing, when he will speak upon “Jerusale and Its Neighborhood.” The other subjects will be: “Egypt--he Pyramids to the Red Sea,” on Friday, November 10, and “Greece” on the following evening. Professor Ewell is an interesting lecturer, speaking from personal experience and travel in the countries of which he treats, and his illustrations are graphic and al tractive. Martyn College—Tonight the advanced pupils in elocution will be heard in recita- tions, dramatic and comedy sietches, and Professor Webster Edgerly will give a les- son in impersonation, There will also be vocal and instrumental music. The enter- tainment will be held in the hall of the college, 1223 G street northwest. Miss Janet Richards wil) next Tuesday evening deliver a lecture on the World's Fair at the Universalist Church. She calls her lecture “The White City of the Lake,” and it will be fully illustrated by stereop- ticon views. ——_—_. A Divorce Case. The case of Thos. W.

Ashes in Brooklyn. In reply to the Commissioners’ inquiry concerning the collection of ashes by the municipality, the secretary of the depart- ment of city works of Brooklyn, N. Y., writes to the Commissioners today, stating that the collection of ashes is under muni- cipal control, and contracts for same are made for three years at a time. The ashes are required to be placed by househo! ders and others in prcper receptacles at the curb of the street on street cleaning days and thence removed by the contractor, — Cruelty to Animals, Agent Blick of the Humane Society had two cases of alleged cruelty to animals in the Police Court today. In one case W. C. Boteler, in charge of the stables of the Columbia street car line, was defendant. The animal in question was taken from a car near the stable, and instead of allow- ing the alleged suffering beast to go direct- ly to the stable the agent led it off to the ninth precinct station, causing it to walk a distarfce of about fourteen squares before reaching the stable. it was claimed that the animal's ankle was disabled, and a witness said that the horse had the scratches. On behalf of the defense it was asserted that there was no cruelty, and Judge Kim- ball so found from the proof. The case was thereupon dismissed. In the other case Jefferson C. Newton of the Anacostia railroad was defendant. It was shown that the horse's sore leg was [personal bonds were taken. }article out into the aisl DOCTORS VINDICATED. Charges Brought Against Members of the Medical Association Investigated. There was a largely attended meeting of the Medical Association last evening and the principal business was the hearing of the report of the standing committee. As has been stated m The Star, charges had been brought against several members of the association relative to alleged viola- tions of the ethics of the profession, and in accordance with the rules the charges were referred to the standing committee for in- vestigation. The report of the committee was complete, showing that they had thoroughly sifted the charges, and the as- sociation indorsed thelg work by the unan- imous adoption of the report. In the case of two doctors charged with practicing homeopathy the committee learned that one of the doctors had gone into other business and that fact itself placed him outside of the association. While in the other case the accused doctor claimed that he had sent in his resignation as a member of the association some time ago and supposed that it had been received. In this case the committee simply reported in favor of granting his request and dropping his name from the rolls. The charge preferred against Dr. Hyatt, alleging unprofessional advertisement of himself, was thoroughly disapproved and the committee so reported. As to the charge that Dr. Hammond was making money from a patented medicine of his own inven- tion, the committee, after hearing the evi- dence on both sides, found that the charge was not sustained. The adoption of the re- port by the association disposed of all the cases that have been brought to the atten- tion of the association and of the committee. It is said that the matter will not end here. The charges were not only un- founded, it is asserted, but publicity was at once given to the matter. It is stated that the proceedings were irregular from the start. According to the rules of the association charges affecting the conduct of members are to be made in writing and submitted to the standing committee. In this case it is said that the charges were originally made at a meeting of the asso- ciation by the president, Dr. L. Elliot, who jeft the chair for this purpose. It is further stated that, contrary to the rules, and on the very next day, the charges were made public in the newspapers, before an opportunity was had to have any investi- gation into their truth. It is asserted as very likely that charges will be brought against the president, and that another in- vestigation will be had. y enioee ae THE SALVATION ARMY. Interesting Meetings to Be Held To- morrow Night and Sunday. Staff Captain and Mrs. Parker of the Salvation Army, who were in charge of its work in the district comprising Maryland, Virginia and the District of Columbia, were recently transferred to Cleveland, and Ad- jutant and Mrs. Dunham were ordered from Connecticut to take charge of the district. They are coming over from their headquar- ters at Baltimore to make their first visit to the Washington corps tomorrow. They will have charge of the meeting at the hall, D street near 7th, Saturday evening at 8 o'clock, and also of the meetings on Sunday at 7 and 11 in the morning, at 3 in the after- noon and at 8 in the evening. They will be assisted by the officers who have lately taken charge of the local corps, Capt. Mc- Fetridge and Lieut. Taylor. The meeting tomorrow night will be made especially in- teresting by the presentation of an Amert- can flag to the local corps by some of its friends. Adjutant and Mrs. Dunham are admirable types of the American officers of the Salvation Army, Adjutant Dunham be- ing a native of New Hampshire and his wife a native of Ohio. They have seen much hard service and have many interest- ing experiences to tell and ua very effective Way of telling them. Adjutant and Mrs. Dunham will find the local corps in fine condition and will be most heartily wel- comed. i DONT LIKE CUSPIDORS. Representative Curtis Has No Possi- ble Use for the Article. Before the House of Representatives was called to order a few days ago there was heard a little racket over in the southwest- ern corner of the chamber. Slammety bang! Something went flying out into the aisle! Congressman N. M. Curtis of New York is an immensely tall and fierce-looking man, with a very long and savage beard, and he had just come into the historic chamber of the lower house to take his seat, when he glanced down to the floor under his desk, and his horrified eyes saw a cuspidor—a gpittoon. He didn’t stop to inquire why it ‘as there, but with a “Buck” Kilgore “kick” in miniature he sent the offensive He only looked after it long enough to see it was safely deposited, when he contentedly settled down to work, only looking up to say to John Chancey, the. flag hoister who has been around the House so many years, “Cap- tain, there will be two or three of those things missing here if this {s kept up; I have spoken about this several times, and still every morning there is a spittoon care- fully placed under my desk. I tell you IT Would rather have a rattlesnake put there.” Leopold Fielder, the pensioner arrested in Baltimore two days ago and brought here by Detective Carter on a charge of making a false claim for back pay and bounty, as heretofore published in The Star, plead guilty in the Police Court today, and was committed to jail in default of $1,000 bail. nee ATES Applied for Starter. “Jack” Sheehan, the well-known New York turfman, has applied for the position of starter at the coming meeting of the Washington Jockey Club, which commences on the 23d instant, and has offered to serve without pay until he has demonstrated his fitness to handle the flag. pe WASHINGTON NEWSPAPERS, Two That Are Notnbly Prasperous and Successful. From the Fall River Globe. It has long been a proverb in the news- paper world that Washington is a news- paper mausoleum. Don’t you believe it. The success of The Evening Star, which has long been an institution of the national capital, and the abounding prosperity of the Washington Post, sufficiently demonstrates the untruthfulness of the old saying. The trouble heretofore has been, I suspect, that managers did not know so well as the dis- criminating and appreciative public what a newspaper really was; hence they were un- successful in their efforts to maintain more or less “cowardly makeshift: ee ——___ The Leading News Agency of the World. From Daily America, November 2.

At the Central yesterday afternoon the regimental and company officers were fur- nished with swords. Owing to the fact that the cadets have not yet been supplied with arms and encouterments, some think it strange that the officers should have been permitted to wear their swords in the drill yesterday. Major Ross conducted the drill at the Central yesterday afternoon, Col. Reichel- derfer at the Business and Col. Skinner at the Eastern. The foot ball games to be played tomor- Tow are Central vs. Western at Y. M. C. A. Park; Eastern (second term) vs. Laurel at Laurel, Md., and Business vs. St. John’s Academy of Alexandria at Capitol Park. Manager Prince claims that he sent sev- eral notices to Croisant of the Eastern in reference to last Tuesday’s game, and he failed to send an answer. There having been no preparations as to selecting a place for the game up to the day before, Prince sent the notice stating he would play under No consideration. A definite arrangement was made yesterday afternoon, whereby the two teams will meet at Y. M. C. A. Park on the 14th instant, the scheduled date for the second game. d The Balance Sheet made its second ap- pearance this morning and ts somewhat of an improvement over the first issue.
