Thorzas O'Donnell, a young man, who is a tinner by trade, has a family to support, but he is by no means a prohibitionist, and the consequence is that he is constantly having domestic trouble. Annie O'Donnell, his wife, is afraid of him, and Mary Bar- rett, his sister-in-law, certainly has no good feeling for nim. A warrant for the hus- band’s arrest was sworn out, and Tom was called before Judge Miller today for threats. The wife appeared and told the court her side of the family troubles, and how her husbend had made threats. She told the court of her husband's over-indulgence in strong drink, which was the. cause of her trouble. Then the sister-in-law had her say. “Yes,” she said, “he is my brother-in-law, and I am ashamed to have to stand here and acknowledge it.” “What's his business?” inquired the court. “He's a tinner by trade,” she swered, “but he don’t work at it; he loafs. Tom then took the stand and told his version of the trouble, denying that he ever had any intention of harming his wife. “How long have you been on this spree?” Judge Miller asked him. “T° haven't been on @ spree,” he an- swered. “Do you drink?" “T take a glass of beer when I feel like DURING OUR SALE AT Bankrupt Prices. ‘These are made of Fine Dongola, with Patent Leather Tips and Trimmings.

The inauguration of the Alexander Island race track yesterday was, despite the pcor- est of raliroad accommodations and unfa- vorable weather, quite a success. Five well-contested races were run, and although there were no crack-a-jacks starting, the {contests proved to be no less serviceable as a medium for investments. The pretty ttle track was the objective point for about a thousand or twelve hundred local Tace-goers, and quite a number of ladies occupied seats in the grand stand. The de- termination of the association that improper characters should be excluded was faith- fully carried out, and not an intoxicated in- dividual was seen on the grounds. The in- field was occupied by a number of car- riages. The one great drawback of the day was the manner in which the public was treated by the rallroad company. Although it was advertised that a train would leave the sta- tion for the track at 1:15, it was almogt 2 before the train left, and then, instead of carrying the passengers to the track, they were deposited at Jackson City, compelling them to walk about a third of a mile. When the races were over the people not only had to walk back to Jackson City to catch the train for the city, but had to wait there for half an hour or more for it. The asso- ciation claimed that the railroad alone was to blame, and announced that hereafter there will be the best of railroad accommo- dations. As stated in yesterday's Star, six book- makers were in the ring, and they did a good business, in seg they perhaps got a shade the best of the talent. Two favorites won, and the others first catching the | judges’ eyes were well supported. Mars | Cassidy handled the flag, and did rather | well. He is painstaking, and, while he has much to learn in the matter of starting, ne demonstrated yesterday in his work that he will do. Mr. George M. Oyster, jr., was presiding judge and Mr. R. Vandergriff was his associate. Mr. C. D, McCoy held the watch. The sociation has been licensed by the National Jockey Club, which license pre- vents the conducting of foreign books. The track was in good shape, and the time made in the different events was fair. The following is a summary of the day's sport: | First race, | Of Daly), five furlongs—Key West, 1 f 7 to 1, first; Postmaster, 1 (Hogan), 10 to 1, second; Criterion, 122 | (Manlove), § to 1, third.

The other winners were Charity,Domingo, Flash, Rowena and Fore- man.

Jupiter Pluvius caused the postponement of the Washington-Boston, Philadelphia- Baltimore and New York-Brooklyn games yesterday afternoon. The Pittsburg club, accompanied by 500 admiring fans, visited Cleveland and took | the game from the leaders by a score of 6| to 5. The Spiders made four runs off Killen | in the first inning, but Ehret, who relieved | him, proved an enigma. The contest was close and exciting.

Four matches were played yesterday by the American Whist League at Philadel- phia for the Hamilton Club's trophy, three of the eight contestants being Philadelphia clubs. In the second round the Hamiltons of Philadelphia met and defeated Minneap- olis, the present holders of the cup. Eight games were commenced yesterday in the contest for the American Whist League trophies, but the players were still playing at midnight last night. During the evening two gentlemen fainted from the re- sult of the strain, but soon revived. The following games were played in the third round for the Hamilton Club trophy: Hamilton Club, 3 Philadelphia Club, 311. Chicago Club, 306; University Club, 818, Manufacturers’ Club, 320; Wayne Club, Baltimore Club, 313; Capital Bicycle Club of Washington, D. C., 311. Rochester's Race Meet. It has been decided by the directors of the Rochester Driving Park Association to add a day to the meet In that city, making five days of racing, instead of four, as formerly. Coming after the two weeks’ meeting at Buffalo, this change will be highly accept- able to horsemen. The racing will begin on Monday, instead of Tuesday.

A fire, which might have been attended with serious consequences, was discovered in the basement of Columbian University, corner of 15th and H streets, at 7:30 yester- day evening. A still alarm >rought the engine from No. 1 company to the scene and a few bucketfuls of water extinguished the fire. The hood in the chemival labor- atory had in some way become ignited, and as no one was in the room at the time, the first intimation the college authorities bad of the fire was the odor of burning wood and the clouds of dense smoke which rolled through the building. There were one or two hundred students in the college at the time, mostly law students, in the room just over the laboratory, but there was very lit- tle excitement. Fortunately the hood in the laboratory is somewhat tfsolated, and the flames only scorched the brick wall against which it is built. Had there been surround- ing woodwork, is likely that the fire it would have gainel quite a headway before its discovery, and the results might have been disastrous. —— Ladies of the @. a. R. The last regular semi-monthly meeting of U. 8. Grant Circle, No. 1, Ladies of the Grand Army of the Republic, was an un- usually interesting one.

The report says, further, that the duel was fought with pistols, and that Lieut. von Kummer shot his superior officer in the leg. for snooting his superior officer, but for taking part in a duel, in violation of the imperial edict. He was tried, and the ver- dict of the court was that he be imprisoned within a fortress for three months.

Money for the Civil Service Commis- sion Retained — Can Still “Dock” Members. It is one thing to abuse civil service re- form in committee of the whole, to vote against it viva voce, or by tellers, and to otherwise make a great demonstration in favor of “Old Hickory Democracy.” It is quite another thing, however, when it comes to a yea and nay vote in the House, to upon official record in the annals of Con- gress, where all future generagions may be- hold; ail of which was demonstrated in the House yesterday. In committee of the whole the legislative appropriation bill had been amended by service commission, This had been done after vigorous speeches had been male against civil service reform, and membe: had relieved themseives of accumulated i tation against the operation of the civil ser- vice law. Yesterday, however, when the bill was reported from the committee of tie whole, a separate vote was demande] on this amendment, and the previous action was reversed by a vote of 158 to 8), =o the eppropriation for the commission remains in the bill, A separate vote was demanded on Mr. Hayes’ amendment repealing the law pry viding for docking members for being ab- sent, and it was defeated by 127 to 104. Mr. Cooper's amendment equalizing the salaries of all House messengers at $1,100 each also defeated. The amendment of Mr. ¢ ruth to strike out the requirement that the clerks to be temporarily employed in briag- ing up business in arrears in the Treasury Department shall be taken from the classi- fied service was lost.
