AFFAIRS IN GEORGETOWN An Expert’s Opinion of the Aqueduct Pier Oracks. Many Items of General and Special Interest to Residents Across the Rock Creek. A gentleman who has had much ex- perience in the construction of bridges, piers, &c., in speaking of the crack that has appeared in the fourth support of the Aqueduct bridge, says that its appearance is due to the uneyen manner in which the weight of the bridge 1s distributed. In- stead of having the bridge’s supports rest- ing squarely in the center of the pier the strain has been brought upon the two ex- treme ends, which, bearing them down, weakened the middle, causing the structure to take the first steps toward parting in two. The crack in the bridge is widest at the top and gets narrower as the water is approached, finally disappearing within six inches of the element. e entire dif- ficulty, this gentleman says, relative to the strength of the structure can be overcome by the equalization of the weight on the piers. Used a Mallet. Washington Columbus Hurdle of Tenley- town was in court yesterday for making threats against the peaceful existence of his brother-in-law, William Linder. He was released, though, on his personal recogniz- ance. Instead of going home and resolving te act in a scriptural manner, even when smote upon the cheek, he made up his mind to retaliate when occasion called for it. ‘When Lindner, therefore, angry at the easy manner the court had let off his kinsman, accosted him on the subject, there followed a reciprocative deluge of forcible utterances that brought on blows from Linder. Said blows were given through the assistance of a mallet. As soon as Washington Columbus Hurdle got the chance he seized that in- strument, with which his head had been pecked, and began to maitreat his antago- nist. The maltreatment was so intense that the mallet went to splinters. When Linder re- covered sufficiently he went to the police station and sued out a warrant for his rela- tive. Last night Washington Columbus again slept in a cell. Some Notes. The lawn party at the Grant mansion, the home of Col. John A. Joyce, last evening, from 4 until 8, for the benefit of the teach- ers’ annuity fund, was a splendid success. The attendance was large and the various stands lured all to patronize. The strikers in the Cumberland coal region are now more thoroughly organizing for the purpose of unitedly bending their energies to cause a suspension of work in the mines of the Consolidated Coal Com- pany. What is known among farmers as the army worm has made his appearance with countless companions among the wheat fields in several sections of Maryland. No serious damage is apprehended, though. “Wheat has gone crazy,” commission men say, it having now dropped to 58 and 59 cents—a startlingly low figure. Corn is bring- ing from 47 to 481-2 cents, Usually wheat brings about twice the figure that corn does. Yesterday 7,000 bushels of wheat and 900 bushels of corn came into town for Geo. T. Dunlop. + —_—>__ CHRISTIAN ENDEAVORERS. Pleasant Muss Meeting Held at 19th Street Baptist Church. The Nineteenth Street Baptist Church was beautifully decorated last evening to receive the Christian Endeavorers of the District, and a very enjoyable mass meeting was held. The meeting opened with the usual song service, after which Mr. William Walker, the president of the society of the Nineteenth Street Church, read the Scrip- tures and offered prayer. After the singing of another hymn. Mr. Charles Lemos, pres- ident of the board of trustees of the church, spoke a few words of welcome. Mr. W. H. H. Smith gave a report of the progress of the work of the preliminary committee of 96. By request Mr. Smith repeated the object lesson of welcoming members into Christian Endeavor society, as given by him at a meeting some weeks ago. Dr. J. G. Butler then addressed the meet- ing upon “The Church of Tomorrow.” Dr. Butler said that such a meeting as the one of the evening could not aave been held some years ago. The church of today was far different from the church of yesterday. The church of tomorzow will be larger numerically, of xreater intelligence, and possessed of more of the spirit ef unity. The speaker thought that we would hardiy hear of so many heresy trials in the church of tomorrow. At rhe conclusion of Dr. Butler's address Mr. William Walker gave a most interesting historical sketch of the work of the Young People’s Society of Christian Endeavor of the Nineteenth Street Baptist Church. This society, which h: only been organized a year and three months, numbers 260 .nembers, and is en- gaged actively in all branches of Christian Endeavor work. Miss Gibbs sang a solo in a pleasing man. ner, and then President McArthur intro- duced Mr. George F. Willlams, who spoke upon the topic “The Individual Endeavor- er.” His remarks were brief and very much to the point. During the collection the choir sang “W ington "9%." The meeting closed with the singing of “God Be With You Till We Meet Again,” and the benediction was Pronounced by Dr. Butler, —.>-_— POLICE RELIEF FUND. Congress Asked to Aid the Dwindl: Principal. The police relief fund, as heretofore stated, is in a bad way. Unless something is done at once it won't be long before the fund is entirely exhausted. That the Com- missioners are anxious to put this fund on @ permanent footing is shown by the fol- lowing letter, which they sent to Congress today: “The Commissioners have the honor to recommend the enactment of the inclosed draft of a bill making permanent provision for the police fund of the District of Co- lumbia. The present source of revenue for the police fund is $1 per month deducted from the pay of each member of the metro- politan police force, and such contribu- tions as may be made to that fugd by the generosity of private donors, or collected through the personal efforts of the mem- bers of the force as admission fees to en- tertainments, excursions and the like given by them or in their behalf. All of these means are utterly inadequate to meet the demands made upon the fund. The month- ly tax upon the members of the force can- not be increased without entailing hard- ship, and is wrong in principle as a means The practice of solic- iting money from private sources for said | tund is also objectionable, as incompatible with the discipline and dignity of the force. The Commissioners hope that it will be the pleasure of Congress to take immediate action op this measure, as the usefulness of the relief fund is already in jeopardy by its depleted condition.”” The bill provides that there be set aside and retained, each fiscal year $30,000, or so much thereof as may be necessary, of the moneys received for municipal licenses is- sued for the sale of intoxicating liquors in the District. The bill provides that such relief shall not exceed for any one police- man or his family the sum of $30 per month and shall not be paid to a widow who re- t | marries, and a sum not exceeding $75 may be allowed srom said fund to defray the funeral expenses of any policeman dying in the service of the District. POSEY RE 35-2 Stealing Papers. Early this morning William A. Foy, one of the route agents of The Evening Star, while passing along B street between Ist and 2d streets southeast, espied a colored | boy stealing papers from the doorways of | several of the residences along the square. | The boy ran on being discovered, but Mr. Foy overtook him in the Capitol grounds and carried him to the station house, where four copies of the Post, two of the Balti- more Sun and one of the Times were found in his possession. In the Police Court the thief gave his name as Daniel Jeffries, and his age as fifteen years. He pleaded guilty to the charge and was fined $5.

Albaugh’s.—Monday night next will mark the commencement of the fourth week of the summer opera season at Albaugh’s Grand Opera House, with a magnificent revival of Gilbert and Sullivan's popular and tuneful opera, “Pinafore.” This composition is be- ing given in response to numerous requests from the public for a production of this opera. Every week Mr. Strakosch has added new singers to his company, and this week will be no exception. Also a large. amount of money has been expended in the way of new scenery and costumes, the lat- ter having been especially ordered from New York. Entirely new scenery has been undergoing preparation for the past two weeks, without regazd to cost, following closely upon the plan of the original pro- duction in London a number of yoere: Say A noticeable feature of this production w: be the fact that all the voices are pecoliarly adapted to the respective parts. The cast will be of unusual strength, including the familiar faces, and one new, that of Willet Seamen, who has been especially engaged. Mr. Seamen will sing the role of Captain Corcoran. Ever-popular Charles A: Bige- low will fill the part of Sir Joseph. Fred Huntley will assume the role of Ralph. Mr. George H. Broderick, who has cap- tured the music-loving public of Washing- ton with. his fine bass voice, will sing the |. re. well-known character of Dick Miss Laura Millard will sing Josephine. and there is no doubt that she will de it in a thoroughly artistic and becoming manner. Miss Mamie Gilroy, who was taken sick re- cently, but who has now entirely recovered, will play the part of Hebe. Miss Alice Hos- mer will sing the role of Buttercup. 4, ox. lass drill by sailors of the United’ Stat navy will prove of an interesting and novel character. As a result of Mr. Strakosch’s efforts to respond to the wishes of the pub- Me in an entirely finished manne:, an aut mented chorus and orchestra will be, a noticeable feature, and Mberal patronage should be the public’s way of showing their appreciation of the same. Mr. Strakosch invites the public to express their prefer. ence for either of the two operas, “Pau! Jones” or “Gypsy Baron,” to follow “Oli- Communications may be sent to Albaugh’s Theater. Mr. Strakosch Bas be- come the owner of all properties, scenery and costumes of ‘Paul. Jones.” want: New National Theater.—The sumfffer sea- son of comedy will commence at the New National Theater on Monday night. The company is largely composed of thdge\ who did such good work here last sumi » ond the new members have been selected with a view to strengthening the organization. Pe opening comedy will be “The Three jats.”” 4 Academy of Music.—“The Three Dukes,’ the new and sparkling opera by the Harris brothers of this city, has been in active re- hearsal for several months past, and°will be produced at the Academy nexts.W commencing with a matinee on Decoration day and continuing during the remainder ef the week. The presentation of the, 5 promises to be a success in every par! lar. The cast embraces some of Wash- ington's best known vocal talent, the prin- cipals being Miss Dorothy Byrde Rogers, Miss Bertha D. Lincoln, Miss Cecélla Sul- livan, Miss Willie E. Barton, Mr. W. H. Harris, Mr. Renj. Judson, Mr. Felix Ma- hony, Mr. Hans F. Roberts, Mr.) Arthur Gardner, Mr. W. Webster Cullison, Mr. Samuel Bruckheimer and Mr. R. T: Oliver. A large and exceptionally efficient chorus, numbering over fifty young and fresh voices, selected from the different choirs of the .city, has been doing such good work at the rehearsals as to elicit very high praise. The music of the opera is’ ¢atchy and contains many very pretty’ musical gems, likely to become popular. A‘ grand ballet is one of the features of the opera, and with the principals and chorus the number of people employed in its protuc- tion will be close on to eighty, with an or- chestra of twenty-two pieces, the whole under the direction of the musical com- poser, Mr. Arthur Percy Harris. Judging from the sale of seats already recorded, large audiences will be present at each per- formance. . “The Jewess.""—The Hinrichs’ Opera Com- Pany continued its triumphs at the Academy of Music last night, when “The Jewess” was given, with Koert-Kronold, Bertini- Humphreys, Guille, Viviani and Michelena in the The opera is one of the most striking examples of magnificent melan- el that grand opera, with all its wealth ot wich material, Whe offer. It 1s’ on the productions w! are the more i able because they have not been le familiar by too it repetition. Its musica] ex! les are severe, and this fact ical exigenci may account for its not being presented as often ag the appreciation it finds with music lovers would seem to demand. Guille was @ favorite, ag usual, and more than justified the esteem in which he is held. Koert- Krorold acted and sang with a fervor which made the role of Rachel intensely human, as well as thoroughly artistic. The audience expressed its approval in a wealth of testi- monials, which included both flowers and applause. Tonight's performance will close the engagement with “Cavalleria Rustica- na” and “Il Trovatore.”* : Julia Marlowe.—Julla Marlowe played Vio- la in “Twelfth Night” at the New National Theater last night in a manner which fully sustained the reputation which she enjoys as an interpreter of the gentler roles in the Shakesperean drama. Not only cid her own efforts command admiring attention from the audience, but the supporting company } acquitted itself with credit in the spirited comedy so abundant in the play. Tonight she will appear as Parthenia in “Ingomar.” The Marteau Farewell.—The musical event of the week will be the farewell concert of Henri Marteau, the great French violinist, at Metzerott Hall, on Monday night. Mar- teau surprised and delighted his audience on his first appearance here, and he will doubtless draw a large house. His support is Sig. Guiseppe Campanari, the phenomenal baritone, whose magnificent voice has been heard here before, and Amie Lachaume, pianist. The program includes Lacombe’s Sonata in F, vieux temps concerto No. 5, a cavatina by Raff, mazurka by Wient- awski and a “Faust” fantasia, all’ by M. Marteau; two piano solos by M. Lachaume and two vocal numbers by Cambait ri. Kernan’s Lyceum Theater.—The regular season of the Lyceum closes next’ week with the London Specialty Company. ‘Man- ager Kernan put forth every effort to se- cure the very best attractions obtainable. During the season he has introduced many new, novel and startling features to his patrons, and to close the eventful record he will present next week the London Specialty Company, an organization ¢om- posed of eminent artists, numbering in its ranks such well-known people as Lew Haw- kins, the inimitable mimic and ¢omedian; the Acme Four, in their laughing absurdity, entitled “Tubb’s Visit; the Belle Sisters, vocalists, instrumentalists and dancers; the Garnella Brothers, in their original Chi- Now is the Time When your bodily condition must have careful..at- tention.

Immediately following the close of the regular season is Manager Eugene Ker- nan’s testimonial benefit, which is an- nounced for Monday evening, June 4. Already the sale of tickets indicates an overflowing house. The program, which will be decidedly extravagant, will contain several special features, including an old- time cake walk, under the direction of Walter Tate of this city, and introducing James Jackson of Baltimore, champion classic Iker of Maryland. Charles Hol- comb, who stood four rounds against Joe|- Wolcott, will appear with some local as- pirant in a four-round scientific contest for. points. Every effort is being exercised to make it tne most successful event ever tendered the genial manager of the home of vaudeville. The sale of reserved seats opens at. the Lyceum box office Monday next. Willard Hall.—“I Am Engaged,” the new comecy by Mrs. Emma Poesche, to be pre- sented at Willard Hall next Monday and Tuesday evenings, is in active rehearsal and receiving the finishing touches under the rsonal supervision of Mrs. Poesche and elena Hartnett Mitchell, who will see that even the smallest detail will receive special attention. Besides Helena Hartnett Mitchell, who is itaging” the play, also playing one of the leading rts, the company consists of such well-known people as Mr. Asa L. Gil- bert, a clever amateur; Wm. H. Conley, who is too well known to need any introduction to Washingtonians; Wilbert R. Melville, late of the Jean Voorhees Company; W. R. Benham, last season with Digby Bell Opera Company; Victor L. Poesche, a monologue entertainer; Miss Louise Forrest, the capti- vating little soubrette, who will delight everybody, and Miss Rosa Poesche, a prom- inent member of several dramatic clubs of the city, who have been rehearsing for several weeks, and will no doubt present the play in a very agreeable manner. Sacred Concert.—A sacred concert will be given at the National Rifies’ Hall tomorrow evening for the benefit of the Adas Israel congregation. The following talent has volunteered: The Tuxedo Club, A. E. Allen, Joe Cullen, R. T. Buhler, T. Pullizzi, Mr. A. Stern, M, L. Mayer, I. Goodman, W. Stetson, Leo Wheat, Dave C. Bangs, Co- lumbia Club, Carl Goundlact, Miss Good- man, Miss Cora Frank, Miss 8.
