12 THE EVENING STAR, FRIDAY, JANUARY 19, 1894—TWELVE PAGES. | ne SUBURBAN NEWS. ALEXANDRIA. Alexandria today celebrated the birthday of Gen. Robert E. Lee. It is a legal holiday in Virginia, the public schools are closed, the banks do no business, and there are no transactions on ‘change. Flags are hoisted at some points, but otherwise business pro- ceeds as usual, the special celebrations be- | ing preserved for tonight, when, as hereto- fore reported to The Star, a birthnight ball and a banquet of Lee Camp Confederate Veterans will make the special celebration of the occasion. There will also be some private parties and a general spirit of hilar- ity will prevail tonight. Jefferson Phillips, who killed George 8S. Smith with a pistol at the corner of Royal and Cameron streets July 22, 181, is now to | have a third trial for that offense. He has been twice convicted—once of murder, and sentenced to be hung, and once of man- slaughter, and sentenced to eight years in the penitentiary. Both these trials have been set aside by the court of appeals on exceptions made to the rulings of Judge Norton in the corporation court. The last | decision was made by the court of appeals in Richmond yesterday. The formal order setting aside the trial not yet arrived here, and, of course, no time has been fixed for the third trial. It is generally believed, however, that the third trial will not take place until late in the spring, and it may be that the case will be removed to some of the neighboring corporation courts. Should the trial take place here, the jury will be undoubtedly summoned from a part of the State other than Alexandria. Mr. Edward Hughes, the contractor for extending streets across Yeaton’s marsh, has given bond in $3,000, acceptable to the street committee, and will begin the work next week. A number of Washington Masons at- tended the meeting of Alexandria Andrew Jackson Lodge, F. A. A. M., last night. The bread boxes in front of several stores have recently been broken open and the theft being traced to Lawrence and Leary Bright, two young lads, they have been put on the chain gang for thirty days. At the birthnight ball tonight Cabt. Web- ster will be chairman of the committee, Lieut. Smith master of ceremonies and Messrs. Samuel Jenkins, R. M. Latham and James T. Smith flocr managers. A council of the Brotherhood of St. An- drew will be formed here next month by | the chapters of that organization in this | $20. neighborhood. | ‘The democratic caucus at Richmond has | nominated J. K. M. Norton for re-election | as judge of the corporation court of this city, and the nomination is equivalent to an election. — ANACOSTIA.

The community is shocked to learn of the death, at his home in Virginia, of Mr. Wm. Strobert, sr., who recently resided near the corner of Michigan avenue and Sargent road. Mr. Strobert was very highly respect- ed in this neighborhood by all who knew him. He leaves two sons in this vicinity, Walter, who resides on the Bates road, and William, who lives near Ivy City. Brookland people are beginning to appre- clate the opportunity for culture which = right at their doors in the lectures at the Catholic University, and many were in the large and appreciative audience which as- sembled to enjoy the illustrated lecture by Rev. Daniel Quinn on the “Ornamentation and Symbolism of Doric Temples.” As the Dorie style of architecture is profusely used in many of the handsome public build- ings of Washington, an added interest is given to the ancient models of Athens and Corinth. The hospitable ‘“‘Tower House,” the home of Col. and Mrs. Juan Lewis, was thrown open last evening to the Brookland Card Club and some of their friends. After the usual games were finished and refreshments | served, an enjoyable musicale was held. Miss Edna Frazee of Washington gave piano solos and Miss Mary H. Howe of University Heights sang.

A small company of friends was pleas- antly entertained Wednesday evening at the residence of Mr. and Mrs.J.A.‘Truesdell. Miss | Marjorie Warner, Mrs. Truesdell’s niece, a | graduate of the Boston Normal School of Swedish gymnastics, in a short talk gave | a delightful explanation of the Swedish or Ling system of gymnastics, which is com- ing Into general vogue in gymnasiums for ladies, both in this country and Europe. This ‘exposition of the principles of the} new system of gymnastics was heightened in interest and charm by an exhibition of | the leading movements and exercises em- | braced in a “day's order” at the gymna- sium. The prompt rhythmical and exceed- sible in the pretty and appropriate suit adopted by the Ling schools for ladies were especially pleasing. There were present Professor and Mrs. Ridgeway, Miss Belle | Perkins, Mr. and Mrs. McCormick, Mrs. T. ©. Carmack, Dr. and Mrs. Stejneggr, Mrs. | D. Marean, Miss Francine areal Miss Mary L. Marean, and Mrs. C. | ae field, Mrs. Harry Miss Ella Reese rton, > — i “Senator Rice. Henry M. Rice. ex-United States Senator} from Minnesota, died at San Antonio, | Texas, on Wednesday.

Description of Affairs at Carrara and Vicinity. The press correspondent returned yester- day to Rome from Carrara and Massa di Carrara, where the state of siege has been proclaimed owing to the attempts of anar- chists to start a revolution in the district. He found both towns somewhat more ani- mated than usual, although trade has been resumed and public confidence seems to have been restored. Cavalrymen ride inces- santly through the towns and infantry with fixed bayonets patrol the streets. All sol- diers on duty in the towns have orders to prevent groups from gathering in the streets. The recent outbreaks in several parts of the country were due undoubtedly to an- archist propaganda, as Premier Crispi said. The anarchists selected Carrara and Mas- sa di Carrara for their most comprehensive plot because there they found the most ad- vantageous conditions. The workers in the marble quarries are the most abandoned lot of laborers in Italy. A host of them are ex-convicts or fugitives from justice, who give false names and whose identities could be established in but few cases. . The Quarrelsome Quarryme: They earn fair wages, but their work is so hard that applicants at the quarries are few and the overseers must take whom they can get without discrimination concerning any- thing except muscle and endurance. Many of the quarrymen camp in almost inacces- sible spots above the quarries and go to town only during the fetes. They are so quarrelsome that fatal fights frequently oc- cur in their camps. It has been found almost impossible to discover the identity of any murderer among them, as every man knows that vengeance will be sure if he betray a comrade. In the case of such a general agitation as prevails at present the identification of the guilty would be still more difficult than usual. Even when the criminals among the quar- rymen are known it is difficult to arrest them, as watchers on the high rocks near the camp give warning of the approach of the gendarmes and the fugitives can hide themselves beyond chance of discovery in the forests or the labyrinthine galleries of the works. The quarries are very old and for a long time it was customary to keep @ battalion from the garrison in view of the men, as their recklessness and brutality constantly threatened outbreaks. The inclination of the workers to rebellion had long been proverbial, yet, some ten years ago, the troops garrisoned near the quarries were reduced greatly. The anarch- ists began at once to scatter their propa- ganda among the laborers. First Anarchist Group in Italy. In 1885 several violent revolutionists who had been expelled from Belgium and Switz- erland went to Avenza, near Carrara, and founded the first anarchist group in Italy. The district in which the quarries are situ- ated was consequently the original hotbed of anarchism in Italy. The new movement spread rapidly. In the last months the leaders had collected money and arms, es- tablished an understanding with the work- men of Piza, Spezzie and other ‘centers of workingmen’s interests, and finally planned to start revolutions simultaneously in sev- eral provinces. They were to plunder the houses of the rich, set fire to the public buildings, open the prisons and rally to the cause of revolt every man who should show himself ready to pillage and fight against the authorities. The outbreak near Carrara on last Satur- day evening was the initial move, but the further execution of the plot was thwarted by the swift action of the authorities, It i: known that the anarchists killed on Satui day night between Carrara and Massa and on Tuesday at the Fassola bridge were much more numerous than the troops thought. The anarchists were eager to con- ceal their losses and carried most of the dead bodies off with them. More than 2,000 anarchists of the Carrara district have tak- en refuge in the mountain: Strong bodies of troops are following and surrounding | them. The fugitives are in need of food; many of them are without sufficient cloth- ing. The cold is so intense that with many of the revolutionists it soon will be a choice between surrender and death from exposure. Most of them are expected to yield soon to the police. : The country round the Carrara and Massa district is tranquil. The rural population of Tuscany and Liguira is especially hostile to the anarchists. POOR PAY FOR GENIU! Six Dollars a Month the Best a Novel Writer Can Do in Japan. A leading Japanese newspaper, as quoted by the Japan Mail of Yokohama, discusses the current rates of remuneration in that country for artists and writers. 1t appears that even in the feudal days, when the pat- ronage of the nobles was often muniticent, genius, whether literary or artistic, earned but a poor reward. Great romance writers got from $6 to $7 a month, and an immortal painter like Hokusai led from first to last a hand-to-mouth existence. Things have not materially improved at the present tme. ‘The highest monthly emoluments earned by writers of fiction amount to about $6v, and only two or three get this much. Moreover, this is not reached until the prime of lite has been passed and long years of hardship and indigence have been endured. Next to these “rare kings of their craft” come wri- ters still in their prime, who earn from $35 to $50 a month, but even these number only four or five, while the condition of tryse who devote themselves to ephemeral litera ture is even wo! ‘The highest sum paid to a contributor of serials to a newspaper or periodical is $2.25 for each installment in a daily paper and $4 to 36.50 for a single in- stallment in a pertodical. This rate, how- ever, is earned only by one famous writer, and the figures go down as low as fifteen cents to twenty-five cents a chapter, which is the price for an obscure writer on a local) per. pavith painters matters are said to be even worse. There are in the Japanese capital three or four artists in oils of such caliber that they would make their mark even in direct competition with foreign painters, but so little does the public appreciate their ef-| forts that they are barely able to earn enough to exist. Pictures of merit fail to find purchasers, or they bring little to the painter, the greater part of the price going into the pockets of the middlemen. ‘Thus, though the condition of the literary class has somewhat improved since feudai times, | painters were never before in such evil | plight. Years must pass before Japanese artists in oils can find a market abroad,and they cannot hope to find one at home until the conditions of Japanese life are radically changed, for the Japanese picture, the scroll, is perfectly sulted to the style of kabitation, while the oll painting ts wholly incongruous with the interior decoration and furniture of Japanese residences. ‘The peogle seem to attach value only to the masterpieces of bygone eras, and to be persuaded that the modern artist produces nothing worth buying. The experts in other arts seem to be more fortunate. The best carvers and workers in| occasionally when it happens they are sub- lacquer find in art schools and museums emoluments greater than any they had in former days, and the foreign market af- fords them almost unlimited opportunities. After all, however, points of the Japanese artist is his willing- ness to work for remuneration that would be utterly despised by Europeans or Ameri- cans of corresponding skill. So soon as he begins to insist upon higher rates of re- ward the conditions of competition will be- come much less favorable for him. - — Translation of Don Quixote. From Notes and Queries. Of the bock it may be said, saving only the Bible, it has been translated oftener and into more languages than any other. A recent Spanish editor, Don Lopez de Fabra, enumerates 150 editions of the Spanish masterpiece in foreign languages. Tat computation is certainly short of the truth. Not only are there more translations in English of “Don Quixote” than in any other language, but it is England which, from the first, has done more honor to the author's work than any other country. The first critical edition of “Don Quixote” in Spanish, with the first life of Cervantes, by Mayzpsay Siscar, was published in London in 1738, more than forty years before the Spaniards had aroused themselves to do honor to their greatest writer. This edition, in four handsome volumes, was printed sumptuously, in all the glory of the Tonson press, under the auspices of Lord Carteret, at an age when “Don Quix- ote” was still appearing in hi® native coun- try on filthy ballad paper in execrable type, uncorrected and unadorned. That which is perhaps still the best annotated edition of “Don Quixote” in Spanish was the work off the learned and painful John Bowle, a canon of Salisbury, which ap- peared in 1781, Iteis sald to have been the rumor of this undertaking, in which Bowle nt fourteen years of his life, which made Spanish Academy hurry with their great edition of 1780. - see xposition, page 5.—Advt.

A Pacifie Coast Newsboy Who Did the Worl Fair Thoroughly and Cheaply Jimmy Egan, a Seattle newsboy, who, in company with Red Gleason, left for the world’s fair at Chicago six months ago, re- turned home last evening, says the Seattle Post-Intelligencer, having made the round trip without paying out a cent and without riding on passes. The boys left Seattle on July 27, neither of them having any money, and they got as far as La Grande, Ore., when Jimmy was arrested and Red contin- ued the journey alone. Red returned home last month and told a thrilling story of his trip to and from the fair, but Jimmy is in- clined to doubt his friend's veracity, for he said last evening: “Red only got as far as Denver; the cons were too tough for him, and he never saw Chicago at all. When I arrived in Chicago I got a letter from Red dated Denver, and he said he was going home. Now, I'm dead next to him; he did not get to Chicago. I was there over three months and made lots of stuff, but I had a tough time getting through. In La Grande Red and I got ina box car and were jumping the town when the marshal pinched me and kept me three weeks. He sent me home, but when I got back to Portland I took the first chance to ship east again. At La Grande I sneaked around, afraid the marshal would see me and pull me again, and when the passenger pulled through I made a run and got the hind coach. A big crowd was at the depot. I knew ‘em all. The marshal was there,and I ran to within five feet of him without me seeing him or him seeing me. He yelled at me: ‘Come here, you d—n little rascal!’ “He grabbed at me, but I was too quick for him and got on the car steps. The train pulled out and I turned around and put my firgers to my nose and grinned at him. You ought to have heard the crowd yell. I rode the brakebeam al! the way, and at some of the towns I got off and shined boots. I made $8 at Pocatello, Idaho, in one night. When I got to Kansas City I made one jump to Chicago on the Rock Island Route vorked it slick, you bet. I got into Chica- fo on September 7, and I wasn't broke, either. I sold papers, souvenirs, and hustled and made enough money to buy a new suit of clothes and-had a way-up time. “The night that Carter Harrison was killed vy Prendergast, I made a killin’. You know ne was murdered about 9:3u at night, and a Chicage paper got out an extra edition. I tad $4, and with it bought papers. It made a dickens of a big stock, and I hired an ex- pressman for $1.50 to drive me to the fair grounds. I kept a stiff upper lip, and the fellow thought I had a pocketful of stuff; he didn’t know he was doin’ the haulin’ on jawbone. He drove me down Wabash ave- | nue, and I stood up in the wagon and be- gan to yell like the mischief: “ ‘Extra! Extra! All about the horrible ination of Carter Harrison!’ ‘ou ought to have seen the people buy ’em. I got as high as twenty-five cents a paper. We arrived at the Stony Island avenue and 63d street entrance to the grounds at 11:30 o'clock, just as the people | were coming out, and I hollered like every- thing about the extras. Well, I say, if I had had 1,000 more papers 1 could have sold them. I was done up, though. I had yelled so much that I was awful hoarse and could not talk. I gave the expressman $4 and then blew in some. That night when I went to bed and counted up I had $37. I gave some of it to the kids who had helped me out, and bought myself and another kid some new underclothes and other stuff, and | then paid a month's board ahead. Then I took the rest of the dough, went to the fair | grounds and sported. I went into the fair sixty times and never paid my way but once. I saw everything—Tiffany’s exhibit, the big Canadian cheese, the Krupp gun ex- hibit, the Mayflower, Santa Maria and Nina; that old Norse battle ship, the great | 112-mile locomotive, 999; had two rides in} the Ferris wheel, and took in the Midway | Plaisance. I won't tell you what I dtd! | there, but I did everything and saw every- thing. I left Chicago last Saturday and came right through on the same train, get- ting home about an hour ago. You see, some fellers hid me in the seats when the) cons came around, and I got through all) right. Oh, I did ‘em all up. Red wasn’t in it at all. But he can tell a whopper when he’s a mind to.” a es WOMANLY THOUGH AN EMPRESS. Proofs That the First Lady in Japan Possesses a Warm Heart. The Empress of Japan has upon many oc- casions openly evinced her interest in chil- dren, giving freely to all institutions that exist to benefit them in any way, even prac- ticing all sorts of little economies that she may be able to swell her contributions to certain charities that most interest her. ‘The conduct of this woman upon a certain sad cccasion her devoted subjects are never weary of describing, says Harper's azar. Prince Iwakura, a fearless Japanese leader in the momentous days of the crisis—trom which the lovely archipelago is still tremb- lng in its subsidence to what seems assured stability—lay dying in his yashikl. The em- press announced her intention of paying Iwakura a visit in person. The poor prince, weak and about to die, was thrown into a dangerous state of excitement upon receiv- ing the news, but he managed to borrow from some hidden nervous force sufficient strength to grasp his writing box and brush- es and to paint her an urgent but most respectful request not to think of coming to him. He forced upon her as excuse for de- clining so great an honor the fact of his rapidly approaching death, and his conse- quent inability to acknowledge her visit with even a sixteenth part of the homage it demanded. He begged her to deign to kindly consider how {ll he must be when it remained an impossibility to throw off the malady even for, her entertainment. In reply, winged with speed, came a niissive whose import was as follows: “I come not as your empress, but as the daughter of your fond well-wisher and co- adjutor and as your own anxious Shorn of all ostentation and display, the empress arrived and remained beside her grateful subject until his final summons, Some years ago, when the imperial palace | was burned, the unselfish empress, amid all | the excitement and discomfort she was for the nonce called upon to endure in a hasty flight to a comfortless old yashiki, thinking first of her subjects’ natural concern for ker | comfort, sat down and wrote them a dainty little rhyme, which proclaimed as erroneous | the report that she had changed her resi- | dence. It coyly asserted that her home had always been in the hearts of her people and that stie sincerely hoped that neither by flame nor by cold could she be driven from that dear abode. ———-+ e+ GAVE HER A NEW NOSE. The Remarkable Operation Perform- ed Upon a Sufferer From Catarrhal Disease. The public generally knows very little of the marvelous progress being made in dentistry; only individuals obtain a hint jects of operation. A reporter for the Knox- ville Journal recently witnessed a remark- able and successful operation performed by a specialist in the matter of constructing: artificial gums, jaws, noses, etc. The case in question was that of a handsome, mid- dle-aged lady, whom the doctor had been operating on for a couple of weeks. She belongs to an excellent family in New York city. Her case is what is. termed as sep- tum, or falling in of the nose, due to ca- tarrhal treatment. The bone had entirely | disappeared and left only a flabby piece of skin sunken in, and of course her personal | appearance had become offensive and had | furnished her untold distress. To look at | her no one would suppose that she had ever been troubled that way, and it requir-| ed close personal inspection to discover | the false makeup of her nose. She is nat- urally a handsome-looking lady, and her personal appearance must be infinitely im- proved. The point of the nose and the nostrils, however, will not dilate on breath- ing. It is made of porcelain instead of rub- ber-—-the usual substance. It has a trans- lucent, flesh tint of remarkable naturalness | in color, and the lady was ever so proud of it, and’ she was warm in praise of the operation. The doctor briefly explained to the reporter that it was now common to the profession to build noses. They insert a tube and inflate the nasal skin to the normal size of the nose and insert springs, which keep it distended, and take a plaster model. The method fs ‘simple enough, but to do a successful job requires skill and in- genuity. The old rubber nose loses color and soon becomes discernible as a false nose across a room. The vorcelain nose for this lady he had a great difficulty in bring- ing to a proper tint to suit her complexion, and {t required a series of several experi- wMents.
