16 SUBURBAN NEWS. ALEXANDRIA. ‘The city commfftee on poor are now con- sidering a plan to reform the method of eity alms giving. There is here, besides the poor house, which last year cost $2,000, a provision for supplying what is called the outdoor poor with provisions, wood, medi- eine, coffins and graves, costing last year neariy $3,000. The distribution of dutdoor aims is intrusted to a superintendent of the outdoor poor, and a recent explanation of the methods pursued astonished brs mmon council. It appears that contrac are made with one store in each ward, by hich flour is to be furnished for a cent @ pound, fish for three cents a dozen, tea for one cent an ounce, &c. The common orders are for the value of one dollar, but the orders do not specify what shall be given for the dollar, and as a rule the con- tractor gives the person holding the alms ticket a dollar’s worth of any kind of pro- visions asked for. The looseness of this method of proceeding has attracted atten- tion, and some plan will be devised and re- ported at the next meeting of the city coun- ci) by which the benevolent work of the city may be more effectively done. Margaret Alexander has bought for $300 @ lot on the west side of Columbus street between Montgomery and Custis streets. L. Marbury has bought for $250 a lot on the east side of Alfred street between Prin- cess and Oronoko streets. The Alexandria Light Infantry is making arrangements to go to Richmond and take part in the military demonstration at the inauguration of Governor O’Ferrall on New Year's day. Mrs. M. S. Parker has made a deed to B. H. Mullins to put in liquidation her book and stationery business on King street for the benefit of her creditors. Mrs. Sitz of Seren & * preferred creditor of the extent of $3,000. The corporation court has granted a charter to the Debenture Stock Company of Wash! Mrs. Ewing's school rendered “The Sleep- ing Beauty” quite effectively at an enter- tainment for their friends a few evenings since. The Odd Fellows’ Joint Stock Company have declared a dividend of 21 cents a share. Mayor Strauss has postponed until Mon- Gay next the trial of the woman cl with passing a fifty-dollar confederate note upon a street dealer in payment for fifteen cents’ worth of fruit. ——__ ANACOSTIA, ‘The erection of a hotel on the corner of Monroe and Jackson streets having a ca- pacity of about twenty-five rooms is among the probabilities in the near future. Yesterday morning about 10 o'clock a colt belonging to Mr. John Brooks of Congress Heights, while standing before the store of | Mr. J.T. D. Pyles, took fright and ran down Monroe street. Turning the corner of Harrison street the buggy to which the colt was attached came in contact with the pole of Messrs. Talbert & McCauley’s gro- cery wagon, which pierced the top of the vehicle and overturned it, checking the Might of the animal and enabling a by- stander to secure him. The horse escaped uninjured. John A. Logan Post, No. 13, Grand Army of the Republic, elected officers last night as follows: . H. Armstrong, command- er; W. H. Eno, senior vice commander; Adolph Gertman, junior vice commander: Rev. Willard G. Davenport, chaplain; J. T. Harshman, officer of the day; John Skid- more, officer of the guard; T. J. Putnam, Quartermaster; delegates to department en- poor agg Messrs. Frisbie, Lee, Eno; alter- Bates to department encampment, Marcel- lus Dony, Adolph Gertman. —>__ HYATTSVILLE. At a recent meeting of the Masonic Lodge of Beltsville, held in its hall at that Place, the following officers were elected: Dr. C. A. Fox, worshipful master; R. V. Hail, senior warden; J. D. Cassard, junior war- den; L. C. Beall, secretary; Samuel «. Mulloy, treasurer; S. J. Hopkins, tiler. ‘This lodge has a large membership. At a meetMig held at Mechanics’ Hall, in this village last night, a debating society was temporarily organized, and the ques- tion selected for debate for the next meet- ing, which will take place on Wednesday evening, the 20th instant, was: Resolved, “That a Debating Society is Beneficial to the Community.” The best plan for man- aging the society will also be discussed at this meeting, and an effort will be made to permanently organize it. A number of People are expected to be present on this occasion, and the committee appointed by Golden Rule Lodge, I. O. M., to conduct this society entertains great hopes of its success. ‘The public meeting of the citizens of this for the purpose of deciding vpon certain amendments to the town charter to go before the legislature for action will be called some evening next week. A num- ber of citizens seem to be in favor of bond- ing the town for a sufficient sum to pro- vide for better lights and sidewalks. A member of the board of commissioners in- formed The Star reporter that the town ought to be bonded for $15,000 to make these improvements. He expressed him- self in favor of a sewerage system, but said it could only be accomplished by de- grees. He did not think that the neces- sary improvements in the shape of water works and sewers would cost as much as $75,000, but believed it would be a good idea to have a main sewer on Pike avenue, with a nymber of smaller sewers leading from it, when the town was able to bear the expense. The Hyattsville Progressive Euchre Club met last night at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. R. G. Whiting. The following players were present: Mr. and Mrs. Chas. H. Welsh, Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Robinson, Dr. and Mrs. J. R. Owens, Mr. and Mrs. R. E. White, Mr. and Mrs. L. H. Campbell, Mr. and Mrs. H. C. Dobbs, Mr. and Mrs. R. G. Whiting, Mrs. L. F. Holden, Miss Lolo Tricou, Dr. Chas. A. Wells, Mr. John Holden and Mr. Clarence Wilson. The first and second prizes for being the best Players among the ladies were awarded to Mrs. Whiting and Mrs. White, and the first and second prizes for winning the highest number of games among the gen- tlemen players were won by Mr. Robinson and Mr. White. A tempting supper was after the games were played. —_——>—_—_ FREDERICK CITY. A case of attempted assassination occur- Fed in Frederick on Tuesday night that has caused a good deal of excitement. Allen Gosiin, a laboring man, who lives on West South street, had been to visit his mother, in another part of the city, and on his way home passed the McMurray factory. At a spot near there he was suddenly halted by @ man whom he failed to identify. The stranger had a pistol in his hand, which he fired at Goslin, aiming at his head. The ball passed through his hat, knocking it off, and then fell back on his arm. By the time Goslin recovered from his consternation the man was fleeing across an adjoining mead- ow and has not yet been apprehended. Gos- lin has been the victim of serious domestic troubles recently and thinks the shooting Was an attempt upon the part of his ene- mies to kill him. In the mountains, five miles west of Frederick, near the little village of Rocky Springs, two fox hunters the other day suddenly came across a grave in the woods on a section burnt over during the past summer by a fire. It had an air of mys- tery about it and they say that upon mak- an examin tion it was found to contain ® headless body. They fled in alarm, and, having failed to note their direction, lost trail of the spot. A large party of moun- taineers, fearing foul play had been done, organized a party on Sunday to search for the grave and unravel the mystery, but | failed in finding the lone burial mound in the woods. re one has been missed from rhood, but the body may have Been taken there and buried in that mys- terious manner to hide the tracks of a crime of some kind. Another search for the grave is to be made this week. The Frederick Council of the Royal Arca- mum has elected the following officers for the ensuing term: W. Irving Parsons, re- gent; Wm. G. Zimmerman, vice regent: Chas. M. Miller, orator; W! Nash Young. secretary; Clarence C. Carty, coliector; Wm. H. Hinks, teasurer; Abraham Rorenour, | chaplain; Wm. H. Griffin, guide; Henry E. Heffner, warden; Edward Herwig, secre. tary; Daniel T. Orieman, representative to | grand council; Thomas H. Haller, Geo. H. Zimmerman, C. V. S. Levy, trustees. Mr. John U. Markell, cashier of the Far- mers and Mechanics’ National Bank, who, | with Mr. Arthur Trail, recently bought out | @ coal yard here, has resigned his position | im the bank, and Tuesday the directors | elected Wilbur Duvall, the assistant cash- | fer, to Ail it. Mr. Duvall's former place was filled by the election of Mr. Chas. B. F. Hendrickson of the Frederick County Bank. | While Upton Groiswickle was attending | services in the German Bap’ Church | near Ellerton, this county, Tuesday night, THE EVENING STAR, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 14, 1893-SIXTEEN PAGES. some one stole his horse, a valuable animal, which he had hitched on the outside. ‘The tax payers of Frederick county are in bad humor to hear that the famous Hoff- man-Secrist wood case is to come up again in the court here on the 2nd of next Jan- uary. This is a case growing out of a dis- ite over the location of a wood near Wal- erville, this county. It has been in course of litigation for the past twelve years, and has cost the tax payers thousands of dol- Jars, but like the ghost of Banquo, it will not down, putting in its appearance at nearly every term of court. Mrs. Dr. Nelson, a native of the Eastern Shore of Maryland, and a lady widely known, was stricken with paralysis a few days ago at the home of her son-in-law, Dr. J. D. Werdemur at Walkerville, this coun- ty, and is in a serious condition. Handsome Trinity Reformed Church at Adamstown, this county, just completed, will be dedicated with appropriate services on Sunday next. ——__ ROCKVILLE. In the circuit court yesterday, in the case of the state vs. Nancy Baker, colored, charged with violation of the local option law, the accused plead guilty in four cases, and a fine of $150 was imposed in one case and $60 fine in each of the other three. The fines not being paid Nancy was ic- commodated with a room in the county jail. State vs. Wm. Busey, selling intoxi- cating liquors; guilty; not yet sentenced. John Dorsey was found guiity of break- ing into the store of Isaiah Coar, at Kd. nor; sentence deferred.

In the orphans’ court yesterday the tfol- lowing business was transacted: Wm. H. Laird, guardian to Wm. H. Laird, jr., and others, filed an additional bond of $3,000. Millard H. Rice, administrator of Wm. H. Rice, |, passed his first and final account, and Tuesday, the 2d of January next, was assigned him to distribute the assets in his hands among the creditors ef said deceased. Chas. A.

Chess players, with a turn for the history of their strategic amusement, will be in- terested to iearn that all the hypotheses as to the origin of the game have suddenly been “mated” by a recent extraordinary discovery in Egypt. It was generally as- sumed until now that the ancient Indians had invented chess; that it was introduced from India to Persia in the sixth century, and that by the Arabs; and in consequence of the crusades, it spread from east to west. It is true the Chinese—who invented many things in times long gone, but which had afterward to be reinvented in Europe —assert that they can trace chess in their own country to about two hundred years before our era. Now, there can cer- tainly be no doubt that in the character of the figures at present used, and in some of the words connected with the game—such as “schach” (shah) and matt, or “mate”. an Indian, Persian and Arabic influence is traceable. But here comes news of the lat- est excavations on the pyramid fields of Sakkara, which have brought to light a wall painting, on which a high official is represented as playing chess with a partner at the time of the government of King Teta, who belonged to the sixth dynasty. Profes- sor Brugsch,correcting this chronology, puts it back to still greater antiquity, namely, to the year 3300 B. C. So that chess would have been known in the once mysterious land of the Mizraim something like 5,200 years ago. it was north of the pyramid of King Teta, or Teti, that two grave-chambers have been discovered which were erected for two high officials of that ruler. Their names were Kabin and Meruka, called Mera. The grave- chamber (“‘mastaba”) of the former consists of five rooms, built up with limestone. Its walls are covered with exceedingly well-pre- served bas-reliefs and pictures representing various scenes. The other grave-chamber, that of Mera, is the most valuable. Until now, no less than twenty-seven halls and corridors have been uncovered. There are beautiful grave-columns; in the chief room there is, in a nicht, a tinted statue of the departed, about seven feet high, with a sac- rificial table of alabaster before it. Among the many wall paintings in this and other rooms, hunting and fishing scenes, a group of female mourners, the three seasons, Mera and his sons holding each other by the hand, and Mera playing chess, are to be seen. So grand is the impression this grave- chamber makes upon the beholder that the Arabs engaged in the work would not call it a “mastaba,” but a “kilissa” (temple or church). Various valuable sarcophagi have also been discovered. A structure of colos- sal dimensions, situated at the western end of the necropolis, is being laid bare; the la- bors connected with it will probably extend over several years. Its direction is, like that of all the buildings of Old Egypt, from north to south. In Abu-Sir also several tombs have been excavated. One of the grave-chambers be- longing to a certain Ptah-Chepses,who lived under the fifth dynasty, has already yielded important results, although only two rooms have as yet been opened. From inscrip- tions it seems that pilgrims had come there for centuries. They are so-called “lotus col- umns,”” the capitals of which imitate the lotus flower. They are said to surpass in beauty of execution, as weil as in antiquity, those of Beni Hasan, of Luxor, and Meda- mut. Three large statues which have been found are broken. The remnants of one of them show {t to have been seven and a half feet high. TIMES THAT TRY HIS NERVE. Stormy Nights, When the Cowboy's Lot is Hardly a Happy One. From the Chicago Tribune. In the windy, bleak nights, when the rain falls in torrents or the snow, flying in clouds, seems to cut assunder all that comes before it, the cowboy has the great- est obstacles to overcome. These are the nights wher a sudden stampede might de- stroy all the rounding-up work of weeks preceding. Mounted on his best broncho the cowboy rides out to his post on the outskirts of the gathered herd, miles away, perhaps, from the camp. As the wind whistles in hoarse cadence along the surface of the ground and through the sage brush his dull chant floats over to the uneasy herd. A few steers made restless by the cold start to wander away from the gathering place, and through the blackness of the | night the cowboy sees their moving forms. Without ceasing the song he moves gently past them, and they are turned back to the thousands they have attempted to leave. Once in awhile a steer escapes, to return again at break of day, but the general stampede seldom happens. But when a stampede does occur the cow- boy's nerve is tried to the utmost. “Mill- ing” a stampede is one of the most danger- ous operations that a cowboy has to en- dure. To mill the cattle is to get them going in a circle and letting them run them- selves down. A frightened herd of several thousand will run over a train or anything. The only way to stop them is for some bold fellow to mount a horse and ride around the herd, and by constant cuts of the lariat or quirt get the leaders turned. He must follow close after the leaders and not mind those in the rear. They will fol- low. - But it is certain death if he is unhorsed or his pony stumbles. The frightened herd would trample him to death in a moment. A cowboy once told me that he was try- ing to mill a stampede one very dark night. He was almost at the leaders when his horse stopped. He had raised his spurs to plunge them into his ponys flanks, when a flash of light- ning showed him that he was on the verge of a pice some 200 feet high. He said to the camp sick, and it was a week before he could take to the saddle. soe — Wm. Lering has purchased of A. R. Browne and W. E. Edmonston, trustees for $44,114.58 the west half of lk square 233-27 feet 81-2 by 113 feet 81-2 inches on the north side of F between 13th and 14th streets northwest. HUNTING WITH FALCONS. To See Just How It Shou! Be Done One Must Go to Persia. From the St. James Gazette. To see hawking in perfection we must go where it is still an every-day art, not as with us a mere survival. To know how to catch and train a hawk is, in this country, an accomplishment, an amusement, a trial of skill, but in many parts of the east a knowledge of falconry is indispensable. Any one going on a journey—which does not mean reclining on cushions in a railway carriage with refreshment rooms at suit- able intervals—but riding on a horse or aj G! camel sometimes for days together, over sand and rocks, with nothing to eat but dry bread, which in texture and flavor is more like brown paper than anything else-any one, if he can catch a hawk, or, still better, bring one with him, has fresn meat pro- vided for him from day to day. True, ga- zelle is insipid food, but it jis better than nothing, and even in the driest desert birds are to be met with. Falconry still flcur- ishes in Persia, and here it was that to us, as strangers and travelers, a day's quail- hawking was offered as an amusement. On a glorious September morning—and the autumn of northern Persia is a thing never to be forgotten—we started from the great city of Urmi in company with our host, two falconers, each with a hawk, and two dogs. The latter were a mongrel-looking lot, but did their work—that of finding and tlush- ing birds—admirably. One w2s a pointer, more or less, the other a kind of a spani with a long tail and a wavy blavk ccat, which had been shaved in various piaces so as to give him the air of a dissipated poodle. We rode out of the court yard, tnrough the streets and bazaar to the prin- cipal gate of the city. The hawks—sparrow- hawks they were—sat quietly on the han without attempting to move or “bate. They were both haggards, that is to say, wild hawks, caught, not taken from the nest, and seemed much tamer than Mugilish hawks. I suppose this may be accounted for by the fact that British and European hawks in general have been for so mary years persecuted and harried that they take @ long time to get over their fear uf mun, whereas in the east hawks are sellom if ever molested. The falcoacr told us that he could catch a wild hawk and teach it to fly from the hand in five days. This may have been an oriental exaggeration, tor in England it takes considerably longer. The city of Urmi ies in the great plain of the same name, and the district is one of the most fertile in Persia. The Nazi river, at this season almost dried up, waters it, and in addition water is brought down frei the mountains by a series of small canals which, when they enter the plain, are car- ried under ground. Everywhere are vine- yards, fields of clover, lucerne and whea along the river grow poplars and willows, while the gardens of the villagers are full of all kinds of fruit trees. The extraordi- nary richness of the scene is heightened by the desolation of its surroundings. On the west and south are the mountains of Kurdistan, bare, black and so steep that snow will scarce lie on them. On the east is the great lake of Urmi, as salt as the Dead sea, surrounded by a broad marsh which gives off under a hot sun perpetual exhalations of sulphuretted hydrogen. If, however, there are no fish in the lake, the marsh, despite its sulphur, teems with ani- mal life—all kinds of water fowl swarm, among which the rosy flamingo and the pelican are the most noticeable, while over- head soar many a falcon and occasionally an eagle. To return to our sport; we rode for about two miles across the plain and turned into a field of lucerne. The dogs were put in, but the crop was very high, up to the horses’ bellies, in fact, and we could only tell their whereabouts by the shaking and an occa- sional glimpse of the spaniel’s long tail. The first field we drew blank, but‘in the second the spaniel’s tail. stopped and began to wiggle. The head falconer rode up to the point, and we were all anxiously wait- ing for the birds to rise, when the horse suddenly apparently sank into the earth along with his rider and the hawk. There was a prolonged struggle, a great deal of yelling, without which no oriental can exert himself, and the three reappeared. On in- quiry we found that the roof of one of the underground water courses had given way and let them in. However, no harm was done except for a few cuts and scratches. As for for the hawk, she was perfectly unmoved, gazing with her beautiful yellow eyes at the spaniel’s tail, now, alas, quite still, This meant that the quail had moved n. Oriental birds apparently partake of the pathy of the country, for any European covey would have been miles away now, but in this case it was not so. We rode cautiously on another point; up got four or five quail. Standing up in his stirrups, the falconer stretched his arm (the right one, according to the invariable oriental custom, with the hawk on it) as far as pos- sible, then bringing it forward and down like a bolder he launched the hawk at the! quarry, and away she went with the jessies streaming behind her. The quail, however, Was a good one, and they flew nearly fifty yards before the hawk struck, which she did with tremendous vigor, a cloud of feathers flying out, and down they came. On riding up to the place we found the hawk “mant- ling” with conscious pride, and the quail quite dead in her foot. Being rewarded with the brains, she was taken up again. This was much the better-trained bird of the two. The second hawk was flown at the next lot, and struck her bird very quickly, but instead of dropping with it carried it off to a tree, from which she was only lured after a great deal of trouble. All this time a large number of wild hawks had assembled overhead. They seem- ed to know perfectly well what we were doing, but, disdaining to stoop at a quail, waited patiently. Presently a partridge got up, of which our hawk took not the small- est notice. Away he went, making for some rough, rocky grounds about half a mile off. He had gone about 100 yards when, swish! dowr: like a stone from a sling came a wild hawk, struck the partridge full and fair, ind, recovering himself directly, sailed off with it in his talons toward the mountains, We had many other flights, but they were all similar to the first, and at the end of the day we had twenty quail and a landrail. Other game is hawked in Persia—hares and rabbits with the goshawk, gazelle with the saker and the greyhounds, and the little bustard with the peregrine. The last is said to be the finest branch of falconry, but we were not fortunate enough to see any of it. Official Vote of New York. The state board of canvassers met at Al- bany, N.
