In the language of one of the Boston Players, Washington has a “right good team of misfits,” but the latter put up an exhibition of gilt-edged ball playing yester- day afternoon which, should it be repeated daily, would surely land the hitherto tail- enders in the pesition at the head of the list occupied by the Bean-eaters last season. It was a beautiful contest, a game full of excitement and faultess playing from start to finish. Smiling Al Maul pitched for Manager Schmelz’s unknowns, and held the visitors down to four hits. He made three himself off Stivetts. Things looked gloomy for Washington at the start. Lowe hit to left for a base, Long waited for four bad balls, and then Duffy batted a little one that caught Lowe at third. McCarthy proved an easy out to Abbey, but Long stole third and scored when McGuire yw. to second, the ball being badly returned. In the second Tucker and Bannon walked to bases on balls, and Ganzel followed with a single, three runs being scored by reason of pitched ball passing McGuire, Selbach’s hesitancy in throwing a hard-hit grounder, and Abbey's failure to hold a fly from Long’s bat. Ciphers were drawn by the Bean-eaters during the remainder of the game. Washington was not at all disconcerted at this lead, but advanced to the plate in the second smilingly. McGuire and Hasa- maear made singles, and afte> two were out Maul knocked a double, scoring the two men on bases. That ended the tally- ing until the seventh, when Maul and Rad- ford hit for singles, Joyce sacrificed, and Abbey took first on balls. MeGuire then sent a difficult one to Long, who, in his eagerness to beat the runne; to first, threw too low and Maul scored. A moment later Radford and Hasamaear reached the plate on Hasamaear’s single. One more was added in the eighth on Cartwright’s double, Tebeau's sacrifice and a single by Maul. Whe fielding of both teams was brilliant, @.cajeh by Tebeau from McCarthy's bat beimg.of-the sensational order. The score Wassou: Wash'gton. R.H.O: H.O.A.E. |.4.E.; Boston.

A Young Amateur Pitches the Balti- mores to Victory. A young Baltimore amateur named Brown pitched for the Monumental City team yesterday, and held the Brooklyns down to seven hits. In the sixth inning he retired the side on three pitched balls. The work of Stage as umpire was the best seen in Baltimore this season. The bat- teries were Brown and Robinson, Stein and Kinslow.

McCarthy of the Bostons is working a new wrinkle quite successfully. With men on bases and a short fly is hit to left field, he purposely drops the ball and then quickly throws it to the infield for a double play. He worked the trick in the second Philadel- phia game and Umpire Hurst said there was nothing in the rules to prevent it. Irwin protested the game. Director W. B. Wheeler of the New York Base Ball Club has declared himself that until Roger Connor is laid off and Jack Doyle is placed on first base and Stafford takes Tiernan’s place in the field he will not visit the polo grounds and will have nothing more to do with the club's affairs.

Allentown Excited Over “King Kelly.” ‘When the news was fashed to Allentown, Pa., last evening that “King” Kelly's club had whitewashed their great rivals, Easton, the enthusiasts went wild with excitement, and the victory is the talk of the town. The “king” and his fellow-gladiators were given a royal welcome-home, and nothing was too good for them last night. They practically own the city. Today is a local holiday, and with good weather and this victory as a stimulant, the crowd promises to be as big as it was when the Bostonians were at Allentown. ——>___ PRESENTATION DAY At the Nat 1 Deaf Mute College— The presentation day and thirtieth an- niversary of the National Deaf Mute Col- lege was held yesterday in the chapel at Kendall Green. The exercises were opened by prayer from Rev. Edward B. Bagby, chaplain of the House of Representatives. This was followed by dissertations from the candidates for the bachelor degrees, as follows: Thomas Sheridan of Minnesota, on “The Power of Public Opinion; by Hanna 4H. Sehankweller of Missouri, on “Goethe;” by David Ryan, jr. of Iowa, on “The Future of Jupiter by John M. Kersh- ner of Pennsylvania, on “Agriculture in the United States,” and by Louis A. Di- vine of Nebraska, on “Education in the Middle Ages.” Lily Amabel Bicksler of Pennsylvania had an oration on “Fairy Mythology.” The degree of bachelor of science was conferred on David Ryan and Louis Divine and degree of bachelor of arts on the other four students mentione!. The degree of master of arts was conferred upon normal fellows as follows: Seth W. Gregory, B. A., Beloit, Wis., 1893; Harvey P. Grow, B. A., Western Maryland, 1893; Barton Sensenig, B. S., Haverford, Pa., 1893, and Marcus P. McClure, B. A., Par- sons, Iowa, 1893. Emma Pope of Mary- land was named as a normal student for 1893-1894.

President Welling, ember of the board of directors, announced that the board had lately received from the alumni of the col- lege a petition asking that the name of the founder of deaf-mute education in America be given to the college. Dr. Welling sald that, following the example of many of the larger and more important institutions in the country who gave the names of bene- factors to ents in such institutions, the board had decided to comply with the request of the alumni, and that after the [ere academic year the name of the col- legiate department of the institution would be Gallaudet College. Dr. Welling paid a glowing tribute to the character and public services of Thoinas Hopkins Gallaudet, who, among man; other philanthropic labors, founded, in isi, at Hartford, Conn., the first school for deaf mutes in America. He spoke of the beautiful bronze statue of Dr. Gallaudet placed on the grounds of the institution in 1889 by the deaf mutes of the whole country, and alluded in a feeling manner to eo Kendall, one name been given a few years since to the primary depart- ment of the institution. s) In closing, Dr. Welling called attention to the fact that the bestowal of these dis- tinguished names on the two principal de- partments of the institution made no change in its corporate and official title, which remained as originally given by Con- gress in 1857, the Columbia Institution for the Deaf and Dumb.

Deceived Her Parents as to Her Resi- dence at Minneapolis. The attempted murder of Miss Viva C: tle, stepdaughter of ex-Congressman J. N. Castle, at Minneapolis on Tuesday, an ac- count of which was telegraphed to The Star yesterday, has aroused considerable interest in this city, where she w: well known some years ago. She is a niece of Col. John R. Fellows of New York. The girl's proper ame is Lamb, but she has been known mce childhood by the name of her step- father, J. N. Castle, who is a lawyer of Minneapolis. The girl's friends tell this story: Miss Castle came to Minneapolis from Stillwater week ago to visit friends there. She was caught in a rain storm Tuesday afternoon and got very wet. She sought the shelter of the Postal Cafe, opposite the post office. The storm had disordered her hair and she asked for a hair dresser. Proprietor Blake, who is colored, sent for a barber and Miss Castle was taken to a barber chair on the second floor, where her hair was dressed. Miss Castle's friends say she suffered from headache, and, in seeking relief from it, often took medicine which put her to sleep. Ex-Congressman Castle corroborated this statement. At any rate, the girl's friends say she fell asleep in the barber chair, and when the barber had finished he left her sleeping there. Later, Blake remembered that Miss Castle was still upstairs and went to awaken her. He was leaning over the chair when his wife, who had stealthily fol- lowed him, ran up, revolver in hand, and shot the sleeping girl. Mrs. Blake attempted to shoot her hus- band, but the bullet buried itself in the wall. It has been learned that Miss Castle de- celved her parents in the statement that she was visiting an old school friend, Mrs. Churchill. She had not called upon that lady. Mrs. Churchill, when asked what bon she could throw upon the tragic affair, said: ‘Viva has not been here with me at all, and I know very little of her movements, but I knew that she had been in the city and was supposed to be here. I met her at the matinee on last Saturday afternoon and had quite a talk with her. She told me that she was at some boarding house on Henne- pin avenue near 9th street.” Detective Morrissey asserts that Viva Castle took breakfast at the Postal Cafe ‘Tuesday morning in company with a friend, a traveling man, whose name cannot be learned. She returned to dinner alone and loitered about the place for some time, finally leav- ing for a short time. About 4 o'clock in the afternoon she again returned, and then fol- lowed the hair dressing and the tragedy. see aa SOME GUN COTTON DIDN’T GO OFF. An Explosion in the Drying House at the Torpedo Station in Newport. There was another explosion at the tor- pedo station at Newport, R. IL, Tuesday. The very heavy report was heard in New- port and caused much excitement. It was followed by a fire which attracted attention from all parts of the bay. In what is called the “Ditch,” over to the western side of the island, was a small shed building about twenty feet square. It was of wood and its walls were merely boards nailed upon uprights. The building was known as a gun cotton drying house and was used for the drying of gun cotton to be used in the manufacture of smok-less powder. This gun cotton is in powder form, and when dry is easily carried upon the at- mosphere and lodges itself in crevices. The building is heated by steam to a tempera- ture of about 9) or 100 degrees, und the 90- degree mark of heat was reached and prob- ably existed at the time of the fire and ex- Plosion. Two boys, Enoch Nordling and James Lynch, who sift and dry the gun cotton were at their work in the building when they saw the fire about the floor. They ran for their lives and escaped. The fire soon afterward must have communicated to a bin containing about forty or fifty pounds of the gun cotton powder. Tne roof was lifted off, and the windows in a building near by were broken, but as the building was in an isolated pluce no serious damage was done beyond the is of the shed itself. The fire was due to spontaneous combustion in the gun cotton, and the explosion was due to the fire. This is the fourth explosion or serious ac- eident at the station within a year. By- standers say the roof was raised in one iece. As soon as the fire was observed the re alarm at the station was sounded, and the men quickly responded. In the ruins is some of the gun cotton, showing that it was not all consumed in the fire or explosion. AFFAIRS IN GEORGETOWN End of the Oareer of Mr. John G. Hedg- man Last Night, Am Interesting Lecture—Coal Miners Are Forming Themselves Into Unions—Other News. Mr. John G. Hedgman, who suffered a stroke of paralysis at an early hour yester- day morning while sitting in a chair at his home on the Ridge road, breathed his last at 11 o’clock lest night. He had been to- tally urconscious since 10 in the morning, passing away without recognizing his chil- dren, who were grouped about his bed. Mr. Hedgman was a nephew of Peter V. Dani: for some time associate justice of the United States. He married Miss Cecelia Ashton Stuart, niece of George M. Bibbs, Secretary of the Treasury under President Tyler. She died in 1870, and was buried in the Presbyterian graveyard in Georgetown in the lot with two of her infant children. Her body will be disinterred with that :of the children and reburied at Rock Creek cemetery with her husband’s. Mr. Hedg- man was a gentleman of wide acquaintance in the District and Virginia. He was a graduate of Columbian College, He was a prolific and wholesome reader, a splendid memory, and was consequently well versed in literature. At all times he was courteous, kind and considerate. He ‘was a member of the Baptist Church, and sircere in all he advocated and did. On the breaking out of the war he espoused the cause of the south, and all during the struggle fought under Gen. Lee. He leaves five children, Mrs. Frances Ball of Balti- a and Messrs. Travers, Noble, John Forming Unions. The miners in the region from which the Chesapeake and Ohio canal draws its coal trade have begun to organize themselves into unions, Meetings for that purpose will be held tonight and tomorrow. The miners believe they will accomplish more through union than by seeking higher wages through strikes. There appear to be men of reason and business sagacity advising the miners as to the course to pursue, and through thelr conservative actions it is probable that the mine owners will st many points in order to accede to the wants of the men. A Lecture. ° nfelt Losses” was the subject of a lec- ture delivered last night at the Gay Str2et Baptist Church by Mr. John L. McCreer; The subject was entertainingly dealt with and the delivery eloquent. Later, by special request, Mr. McCreery read his original poem, “After All,” to flattering apprect: tion. Other features of the evening were an instrumental duet by Miss Lulu Hay- cock and Prof. Archibald Olmstead, a plano solo by Mrs. Isaac Birch and a vocal duet by Miss Isaacs and Chaplain Isaacs of the United States navy. The entertainment was a big success artistically and financial- ly. Tonight the third of the series for the benefit of the church will take place. In Egypt. Mr. Henry Hurt, the recreating president of the Washington and Georgetown rail- read, is now in Egypt, having crossed the American continent, Pacific ocean, Asiatic continent and the greater part of the Euro- pean, on his pleasure trip around the world. He will “do” all the principal cities in northern Africa before he again enters Europe. Notes. The “Harlem Whitewashers” defeated the “Fillmore Ball Eaters’ at Olympic Park on Tuesday evening by a score of 11 to 10. The battery work of J. Ready and Belaski of the Hariems was the feat- ure of the game. This contest for supremacy on Tuesday sroused much interest among the amateur ball players of the West End, both teams being regarded as urusually strong ones. Miss Ada Brown of 2003 P street, in company with Mrs. W. R. Hodges of £4 street, Washington, have gone to Atlantic City for a stay of two weeks. James Elms, a well-known and highly respected citizen and an old resident of Georgetown,who carried on the millwright- ing business for a long time there, died suddenly at his sister's residence, Mrs. Nimrod Davis, in Montgomery county, Md. Monday, in the seventy-ffth year of hi age. His remains were brought to Wash- ington for interment. He leaves seven children—four daughters and three sons. The acoiytes of Trinity Church yesterday had their annual outing to Chapel Point. Rev. Father Scanlan, the pastor, paid all expenses. Yesterday the three-story building at the northeast corner of 3lst and M streets was sold at public auction for $13,200. Mr. John Leetch was the purchaser. ‘The coroner, in the case of Bernie Gant, yesterday rendered a verdict of accidental drowning. —— PLAYED WITH EDGED TOOLS. One Brown University Student Cuts Another verely in a Frolic. Walter L. Crosby, a student at Brown University, at Providence, R. L, cut Dallas L. Sharpe on Tuesday with a scalpel covered with the blood of a dog, and the injured man is at the hospital. Sharpe has been a very popular student at the college. Crosby is a heavy-weight boxer, and he is known in the university as a fine athlete. The two students were in an upper room of Rhode Island Hall Tuesday morning where in- struction in comparative physiology is giv- en. Each had scalpels in hand and were cutting up the body of a dog. They began to joke about the dog, and the play develop- ed into a frolic, the two making lunges at each other. Crosby became somewhat e: cited, and, in making a lunge at Sharpe, hit him in the abdomen. The wound was quite deep, and it is considered particularly da: | gerous because the dog’s blood Was on t! | point of the scalpel. ‘The affair was kept quiet, and Sharpe was laced in a secluded part of the building. ter, a physician in the neighborhood of the college was called, and he was followed in the afternoon by Dr. Frank L. Day, who thought Sharpe ought to be transferred to the hospital at once. The removal was de- layed until that night, when the ambulance went around tc the college and the sufferer was removed. It is feared that Sharpe may die from blood poisoning. —_—_ -+ e+ ____. To Repeal the State Bank Tax. Senator Walsh has introduced a bill for the repeal of the tax of 10 per cent on the circulation of state bunks. Senator Walsh said, in reply to a question, that the bill was intended to provide for unconditional repeal. “That is what we want,” he said. “We claim that the federal government has nothing to do with the regulations of our state banking institutions, and ask to have the state bank tax statute stricken from the books.” a Staunton Has a $100,000 Fire. The excitement over the Spiller murder trial at Staunton, Va., yesterday had hard- ly subsided when an alarm was turned in announcing what proved to be the biggest fire ever seen in Staunton. The bark ex- tract works and beet sugar plant of O. K. = & Company were destroyed, the inflammable character of the material in the building making it impossible to save anything. The loss is over $100,000.

R. Kirk of Cheyenne at the Riggs’ House last night. “A considerable herd of them ranges in the Red Desert in the western central part of Wyoming, and are occasionally seen at intervals near its borders. A bull buffalo, accompanied by three cows, was recently reported as having been observed by a sheep herder near Mud Lake, which is northwest of the big bend of the Muddy. Other herd- ers have frequently seen them in larger numbers, but they are very shy, and keep away from the haunts of men. It is simply inconceivable for @ man who went west thirty years ago to realize that the noblest of wild animals have been made almost ex- tinct. He knows they are gone, but is al- most unwilling to trust the evidences of his own senses. I was near the boundary be- tween Colorado and Wyoming once, or where the boundary is now, and saw the big herd going south. They covered the earth as far as one could see, and they kept going for over ten hours. The next day and the next, for over ten days, herds equally as large came steadily by. There vere millions and millions of them. Now it is hard for me to believe that none are left, except the few in captivity, the herd in the Yellowstone, one or two hermit bulis in the Bad Lands and the bunch in the Red Desert of Wyoming.” “I heard a conversation on a street car today that gave me food for much serious refiection,” said Robert 8. Littlefield of Pennsylvania at the Wormley this morn- ing. “Two men were engaged in deploring the way in which the democratic party had Geserted its henchmen in the distribution of offices. One was evidently from Maryland, and he was particularly bitter upon sundry prominent politiclans from that. state. ““Why,’ he exclaimed, ‘they not only won't et a good, honest, hard-working democrat an office, but won't even get one a place in the navy yard. Now,there was Billi Thomas of our town. There wasn't anybody worked harder than he did last campaign. He spent his own money, and when it came to elec- tion time he put fellows’ names on the registration list who hadn’t any right to be there, and scratched off a jot of others who had, only they were rotten black repub- licans, and did as much for the success of the party as any man in it, Why, he even perjured himself fifty or a hunared times, and what do you think he got? Nothing. ‘Pon my soul, the politiclans who know what he'd done, and gut him to do it, too, get him a job in the navy yard here. Now, who in the world can stick to a party when its workers get treated like that? “The Marylander's companion agreed in the opinion that Bill Thomas had been treated shamefully,” continued Mr. Liftie- field, and the worthy pair continued conver- sation in that strain until I left the car. I turned over my mental memorandum book, and was struck with the many instances it contained of my coming in contact with Just such persons; men of apparent intelli- gence and evident respectability, who did not know the meaning of the word purity when taken in connection with politics, and who devoutly believed that patronage should be distributed among the corrupt scoundrels who manipulated elections, and there were as many of one party in the lot as there were of the other. I tell you the cool man- ner in which political villainly is regarded in this country is enough to make the veriest optimist shudder at the future.” “My native city may be taken as an ob- ject lesson with commendable results by other municipalities in America,” said Hen- ry Lewis of Cleveland at the Arlington yes- terday. “It believes in beautifying what is already beautiful and thus increasing its attractiveness and consequently adding to its prosperity. Every one knows that Euclid avenue is the finest residence street in the world, or in this country, anyhow, and its suburban portion is to be still further im- proved. Under the provisions of a recent act of the legislature it will be widened to a hundred feet. In the center will be car tracks, with a broad grass plot planted with trees on each side separating them from the carriage road. These will be twenty feet wide and will be lined at convenient intervals with itching posts. Inside of these and running through a grass parking will be a bicycle path, three feet wide, end then will come the sidewalk. Each half of the street will be exactly the same. It ts a Pity all of our cities do not look ahead with a@ more sensible view of the future. Amer- icans are becoming great travelers in their own country, and when they leave a stuffy, ugly city, where they have spent their lives, and reach @ pretty one, they go back home and get disgusted, and in many instances pack up and immigrate to the more attract- ive place. This eity of Washington has not become the great city it is because the gov- ernment has its habitat here; it has become the central city of American culture and re- finement and wealth because of its beauty. I would like to see an epidemic of aestheti- cism spread through the Union and attack every city councilman and alderman in it. Make a city beautiful and prosperity and population will course.” follow as @ matter of “History of the cuisine fairly teems with i descriptions of costly meals,” remarked Louis Davies of Brooklyn at La Normandie last night. “We read how that profligate Heliogabalus, the Roman emperor, had a single dish on his table once that cost $200,- 900, and how another Roman, Aelin Verus, gave a supper to a dozen cronies that cost @ quarter of a million dollars. Then Viteili- us, still another Roman and an emperor, likewise entertained his brother at a little snack that used up a couple of hundred thousand; but these were ancient fellows, who had nightingales’ tongues and humming birds’ brains and similar marvelous dainties. Coming down to modern days and plain, ordinary, every-day ham and eggs, I ate a supper once, in this very town, that cost a friend of mine $1,400. A gentleman named Parker kept an establishment where your Press Club is, and devoted it to entertain- ing gentlemen at sundry games of chance. One night the friend I speak of and myself were killing an evening here togethe! we conceived the brilliant idea tha to Parker's would be just the thing. put it into execution at once. I have never gambled in my life, and my friend has not done it since. We went upsteirs and en- tered the room just as supper was an- nounced. My friend did not want to eat anything, but I was hungry, and when some plausible rascal of a dealer told me, that there was broiled Smithfield ham, flahked with pullets’ eggs as a sort of side issue to the otherwise gorgeous feast, I broke for the supper room despite my companion’s pleadings. Of course, he followed me, when he found his protestations were useless, and we enjoyed the feed immensely. When we came out my friend pulled out a $20 bill, and said he would play a turn or two to pay for our supper. I begged him in turn not to do it, but he was as obdurate as I had been. But why linger on the misery. He lost his $20 bill and tried to get it back. In two hours $1,400 were gone glimmering.

Kelley’s industrial army, now at Des Moines, made no visible progress toward the national capital yesterday, indulging, in- stead, in the national game, Kelley's indus- trial nine making its first appearance on the diamond, crossing bats with the Des Moines Stars. Twenty-five cents admission was | charged, and a gvod-sized crowd attended. Kelley stripped off his coat and shoulder- straps, and coached his men and pounded the elusive curves of the Des Moines pitcher in a manner highly satisfactory to his audience. The general showed himself a very fair player, and shouted, perspired and sprinted with all the energy of a profes- sional. The gate receipts were turned over to the industrials. The game terminated in favor of the Des Moines team, with a score of 6 to 5. “Bulgy” Clifford was behind the bat for the indus- trials, with “Hilarious” Hunter in the box. Gen. Kelley was at first base, “Coal Yard” Clark at second, Bill Hoyt at third, “Loco- motiv Sweeney in right field, “Broad Brimmed” Bailey in center field, and ““Mam- a’s Willie” Morton in left field, and “Sawed Off” Grayson as short stop. The Kelley men put up a good game, and the spectators enjoyed the sport hugely. Kelley was still indignant over Coxey’s clash with the Washington authorities, and placed all the blame with the commonweal- ers. He said Carl Browne was an ass, declared that Coxey showed no generalship, and as- serted that the industrial army would have no such trouble when it arrived in Wash- ington. The offer of the Great Western railroad to carry the men to Van Wert for $2 per head was withdrawn yesterday. A secret conference of labor leaders was held in Trades Assembly Hall, at which it was confidently stated that Kelley would secure transportation. The Industrials at New Haven. At last night's meeting at New Haven, “Gen.” Swift attacked Senator Hoar, pitched into Dean Wayland and Yale University faculty because the dean had branded the Coxeyites as “vermin-haunted vagabonds, who ought to be in states prison or in the graveyard;” calied Congress and the Massa- chusetts legislature imbeciles, and wound up by asking for a contribution for the army. While appealing for financial help, the proprietor of the hall created a sensation by Protesting against the collection, saying that the ten cents collected at the door from every person was intended for the army. The protest failed and the collection went o1 n. Yesterday all of Sweetiand’s forces march- ed to the newspaper offices and cheered the editors. Prof. Hadley of the political economy chair in Yale said to his class that the Coxeyites should not be taken too seriously. He thought they were affected with a disin- clination to work ani a certain desire for notoriety, and that, in all Probability, they did not know what they meant themselves and that it would be fruitiess to discuss Political economy with them. He hoped the students would indulge in no demonstration over them. Progress of Randall's Army. Randall's army of unemployed marched yesterday from Grand Crossing to Ham- mond, Ind. More recruits than deserters were reported, and the ranks contained 500 men when the march began. A com- pany of war “vets,” numbering ten men, was made up and placed at the head of the column. Orders were issued by Ran- dall to receive no more recruits unless they brought with them one day's rations.
