Several Fe to Be Suffering From the Disease—Scientists Display Great Interest. Tuberculosis in cattle occupies a very Prominent place in the public mind just now, for it is identtcal with consomption in snan, and it has been proven beyond any question of doubt that the disease may be transmitted from the fermer to the latter by means of the milk of cows which may be afflicted with the malady. As consump- tion is responsible, according to statistics, for the death of fufly one-seventh of the may be realized. For many years investi- gation has been directed toward determin- ing the extent to which the milk of /tuber- culous cows is affected with the baccill of the disease, and how far these germs may be transferred through such medium to the systems of the human beings who use it. The result bas been that all sanitarians Rew agree that the use of such milk is Pesitively dangerous. A great obstacle which has confrontel the scientists enzag- ed in the work of this Investigation has been the difficulty of correctly diagnosing the disease, except where animals are plainly affected. : In a herd of forty cattle,’ for example, three or four may he unquestionably af- fected; four or five others may have. sus- piclous symptoms, while all the rest’ may not show any signs of the sickness what- ever, and yet be afflicted with it. It is evi- dent that under such circumstances it would be necessary to destroy the whole herd, or leave some affected animals to Propagate the contagion. Discovert the Disease. The discovery, however, that inoculation with Koch's tuberculine will show the Presence of the disease in any animal which may ‘be affected with it, notwithstanding how well it oiftwardly appears, has pre- vented the general slaughter of herds con- taining diseased animals, and now it is comparatively easy for dairy farmers to pick out, by means of this method, the cows whose milk would be dangerous for their customers, and dispcse of them by death. About two weeks ago Mr. Christian Heur- ich, who owns the Bellevue dairy farm in the country north of Washington, deter- mined to apply the test to his herd of milk cows, which is composed of registered Jer- seys and Holsteins. Veterinary Surgeon D. E. Buckingham of Washington conducted the test, and of the ninety cattie inocu- lated, several were found to be afilicted with tuberculosis. Yesterday five of these animals were slaughtered to make a scientific holiday. The miserable rain prevented the larger part of those who had been invited to wit- ness the interesting operation from making the long trip out to the farm, and the mem- bers of the House committee on agriculture, who were very desirous of being present, were among the stay-at-homes. A dis- Unguished party, however, attended the post mortem, and among the spectators were Dr. Salmon, chief of the bureau of animal industry of the Agricultural Depart- ment; Dr. William Gray and Dr. D. 8. Lamb of the Army Medical Museum, and Drs. Schroder, Robinson, Ford and Ache- son. The Disease Hereditary. Five cows were killed, and upon exam- ination of their lu:.gs; the presence of tu- berculosis was plainly determined, afd por- tions of the diseased parts were set aside for future scientific examination. A calf, which was the offspring of one of the af- flicted cows, was also kiUed, and tubercles were found in its lungs, thus proving the disease to be hereditary beyond question. Several other cows in Mr. Heurich’s herd, in which the inoculation with tuberculine developed the existence of the disease, have been isolated at Front Royal, Va., for the purpose of being experimented upon, with a view of determining the curative quality of Koch's consumptive lymph. Mr. Heur- ich’s experiment was as expensive to him as {t was praiseworthy. The animals kill- ed represented a money value of over $1,000, and at the commencement of the test he arncunced his determination of slaughter- ing his entire valuable herd if it was found that such a course would be necessary to prevent the milk from his farm from exer- cising a dangerous effect upon those who used it. —_.>_—_ Got Drupk and Strack a Woman. Frank R. West, a conductor on the Belt line railroad, was a prisoner in Judge Mil- ler’s court this morning on a charge of as- sault and battery. The prosecuting witness im the case was Miss Olivia Van Liew, who is employed in the government printing of- fice. Lawyer Shillington appeared for the prisoner, and entered a plea of guilty, re- serving his right to make a statement. In view of this plea Judge Miller heard the statement of the prosecuting witness. ‘The prosecuting witness stated that she boards at No. 715 Ist street northwest, and the defendant, who is her cousin, called at the house yesterday under the influence of liquor and struck her. She said he lived at the house more than a year ago, but had been told to keep away from there, es- pecially when under the jnfluence of liquor. Her evidence was corroborated by other wiinesses. The prisoner admitted that he truck her, and seid his conduct was the It of intoxication. ‘Why in che world did you ever go there this frail woman?" the judge Because I was drunk.” he fesponded. “Did you ever strike a man?” “I would if he insulted me.” I'l warrant you,” sald the judge, “that ou never struck a man in your life. You re like all other men of your kind; get drunk, and then go and assault a woman, when you would not dare put your finger on a man, and you will have to go to jail.” A sentence of sixty days was imposed. pane Bs. Adams Schoo! Entertainment. Last evening a pretty entertainment, under the auspices of the teachers of the Adams school, took place in that school for the benefit of the Teachers’ Annuity and Aid Association of this city. A stage had been provided in one of the class rooms of the building, which, together with the halls, were tastefully decorated with American flags and bunting. Chinese lanterns, which strung around in the win- dows of the respective school rooms, also added mach attractiveness to the rooms. The rooms and halls were crowded to their greatest extent, many not being able to obtain admission to the entertainment. The program rendered, in which great enthusiasm was displayed, consisted of | dancing, singing, recitations, violin solos, choruses and vocal solos. The Peake fam- ily, whica wound up the program, received hearty applause. After the entertainment dancing occupied the remainder of the even- ing. In the class rooms on the lower floor charming: young ladies in an array of cos- tumes were serving refreshments. The en- tertainment will be repeated this evening. ——— Californin State Meeting.

A White Reporter and = Negro Eleva- tor Boy the Participants, ‘The e flats, near 10th and E streets, Was the scene of a bloody encounter be- tween a white and colored man last evening about 7 o'clock, and while the negro was painfully wounded, his wounds are not con- sidered dangerous. James E. Evans, who is employed in the capacity of a reporter on the Washington Times, and Overton Wood- fork, the colored elevator boy, ‘were the par- ticipants. Evans, it is stated, was under the influence of liquor, and when he got in the elevator tc. go up to his room he imag- ined the elevator boy was too slow, and so told. him. Woodfork only laughed at the man, who seemed anxious to pick a quarrel, and then Evans, so it was charged, applied an in- sulting epithet toward his colored friend. “Don't talk that way,” said the colored boy, and then they separated. The negro thought Evans had gone to his room, and he therefore anticipated no further trouble. But Evans soon appeared and renewed the trouble, so Woodfork charges, and slashed him across the chest with a knife. Wood- fork then struck him, so he says, and a friend of Evans attempted to separate them. In doing so he pulled the colored boy away, and before he was far enough away to get out of danger Evans made another slash at Wocdfork, and cut his throat. Evans was arrested by Policeman Carllson, and the wounded participant went to the Emergency Hospital and had his wounds dressed. . An effort was made to secure the release of the reporter deprived of his Hberty, and he was finally permitted to deposit $25 col- lateral, the amount of fine imposed upon Congressman Champ Clark when he com- mitted a somewhat similar assault on Mar- cellus West. When the defendant went to the Police Court this morning and saw the prosecuting attorney he asked for a continuance, in order to have time to summon kis witnesses, During the conversation he made use of language calculated to show his ili-feeling against the negro, because, as he said, the latter used bad language toward him. He claims that he acted in self-defense, Woodfork swore out a warrant this morn- ing, charging assault with intent to kill, and the defendant will have to give real estate bond for his appearance. —_—_. ABOLT GEORGETOWN. A Pretty Wedding, the Linthicum In- stitute Exercises and Other Matters. In the presence of a large assemblage last evening one of the prettiest weddings Georgetown has ever seen took place at the Congress Street M. P. Church. The high contracting parties were Miss Lucy G. Jarboe, daughter of Mr. Horace Jarboe of Washington, D. C., and Mr. Norman H. Price of Baltimore, Md. The maid of honor was Miss Minnie Jar- boe, sister of the bride, and the best man, Mr. Walter Larry of Baltimore. The brides- maids were Miss Catherine Bulloch, Miss Maria Loughborough, Miss Elizabeth Rey- nolds, cousin of the bride, and Miss Nellie Butcher. The bride approached the min- ister on the arm of her father. She was at- tired in a handsome costume of white satin, trimmed in Duchesse lace, and wore in her yell a magnificent dagger, studded with diamonds and rubies, the gift of the groom. Behind her walked two exquisitely costum- ed little flower girls, Miss Mollie Mohler of Baltimore and Miss Lucile Butcher of Washington. The ceremony was performed by the Rev. Dr. Bates, a former pastor of Congress Street Chureh. He came over from Baltimore, the city of his present pas- torate, at the request of the bride. Dr. Bates was assisted by the Rev. Walter R. Graham, the present pastor. When the ceremony was concluded, the couple were driven to the home of the bride’s parents, 1940 15th street, where a reception was given the bridesmaids and others connected with the wedding. Later Mr. and Mrs, Price left by way of the Pennsylvania road for Baltimore, from which place they will go to Boston. They will be at home to their friends after the 15th instant.

A Committee Appointed to Prepare a Plan of Organization — Librarian Spofford and Copy: it Books. There was quite a gathering of local librarians at the Columbian University building at half-past four yesterday after- noon, the meeting resulting from a call is- sued a few days ago, which had for its ob- ject the formation of an association of the Ubrarians of the District, It was explained that the purpose of the proposed associa- tion would be the promotion of social and business relations between its members. As a result of the meeting yesterday a com- mittee of five was selected and authorized to draf. the necessary rules and regulations to govern the association, with directions to report the same to a meeting to be called by the chairman of the committee. The meeting was called to order by Dr. Cyrus Adler of the Smithsonian Institution, who briefly explained the object of the call. He stated that he had no suggestions to make, but would be glad to have a free ex- change of views upon the subject by those present. Upon the motion of Mr. Edward Farqu- har of the patent office, Dr. Adler was chosen temporary chairman, and Mr. 0. L. Fassig of the weather bureau selected as Secretary. Messrs, Chas, C, Darwin of the geological survey, W. P. Cutler of the Agri- cultural Department, ami Farquhar then gave thelr views as to the best means of proceeding in the formation of the associa- tion, it being explained that while most of those responding to the call were govern- meht lbrarlans, it was the desire of the Projectors of the movement that the asso- ciation should be composed of librarians from all the libraries of the District, both in and out of the government service. “In pur- | suance of such a desire a cordial invitation ‘© all librarians in the District was ex- tended. | Mr. Spofford and the Copyright Law. | Librarian A. R.Spofford of the Cong-es- sional Library was called upon to address | the, meeting, but, in accepting the invitation, | explained that he had no suggestions to | make except that the association should be @ practical one, systematic and simple in its affairs. The purpose of the association, he | thought, was an excellent one, and he’ as- sured the meeting that he could be depended upon to do all in his power to aid and assist it. Speaking of the great lbrary over which he presided, Mr. Spotford stated that it was | most impeded by that which enriched it most—the copyright law. That law entailed the care of a large mass of unmitigated trash, he remarked, although It was a very | necessary law. Mr. Spofford stated that the Rev. Dr. Orban of the Catholic University had requested him to state to the meeting that he was in full sympathy with the ob- Jects of the meeting, and that he would gladly and willingly assist it in every way | possible. The committee of five, Messrs. A. R. Spof- ford, O. L. Fassig, W. P. Cutler and H. L. Hodgkin of the Columbian University and | Mrs. H. L. McL. Kimball of the Treasury | Department, were selected, and Mr. Spof- ford, as chairman of the committee, request- | ed the committee to meet at his residence, 1621 Massachusetts avenue, next Monday evening.

The other two little maids were Misses Florence Grigg and Mamie Mayer. The Katishe was Mrs. Emma 0. Green, whose majestic presence fitted the part. The male characters were L. F. Randolph, Nanki-Poo; Chas. W. Moore, the Mikado; Ed. 3B. Fox, Pooh-Bah; George O'Connor, Ko-Ko, and Frank Coleman, Pish ‘usb. | All did well, and the chorus was effective. ‘The orchestra was hardly in sympathy | with the singers, however, although Direc- tor MacLeod tried hard to pull them to- gether, but this will be remedied at the performance tonight. There will be two irore performances, one tonight and a mati- nee tomorrow afternoon. It is expected | that there will be a large attendance to- night, as it is known that many tickets have been sold to Pythians which were not presented last night. At the matinee to- tmorrow popular prices will prevail, and as the “Mikado” is a popular opera there should be a big crowd of ladies and chil- | dren. Kernan’s Lyceum Summer Garden.—The | ladies who are to compete in the seventy- | | two-hour walking coatest at the Lyceum |Summer Garden, commencing Monday, | June 11, have arrived in the city, and are | |in daily training for the big race, which is for the championship of the world. Miss Aggie Harvey, the present champion, whose seventy-two-hour recom is 372 miles, is confident of retaining the honors. She will try to make her record 400 miles. Consid- erable rivalry exists among the contestants, | who says she was never in better form for a hard race, and when the finish draws near she will Be among the leaders. Miss Clara Bell of Cleveland, Ohio, whose sev- enty-two-hour record is 350 miles, is, haps, the most enthusiastic. She says: feel like I could go a mile a minute, and if | the championship don’t fall to me it will | rot be because I dort try. I am confi- | dent of 406 miles in this race." The others, Misses Moilie Harvey, Rose Tremont and Mamie Hewitt, have all made good records, and seem to be in perfect training, in fact, they are all so full of energy, confidence | and vigor that it is quite impossible te pick the winner. Prof. Hoagland, the champion heel-and-tce walker of the world, under whose direction the race will be, will also give daily exhibitions. He offers #100 to any one whom he fails to beat. Conditions at the Coxey Camp. Sweetland, at the head of twelve New Englanders, arrived at Camp Bastile about 6 o'clock last evening. The men carried Coxey banners and American flags and wore badges with a hand grasping a ham- mer, and also green sashes with the words, ‘Keep off the grass” inscribed upon them. Their banners bore the inscriptions of ‘Spirit of '76," “Peace on Earth, Good | Will to Men’ and “Sons of Connecticut.” Sweetland addressed the commonwealers last night and said that he and his men would fight it out at Camp Bastile if It took all the summer and half the fall. His men spent the night in ihe barn. The Galvinites received quite a supply of pro- visions yesterday in the shape of bread, meat, beans, flour and coffee. “Gen.” Gal- vin called cn “Gen.” Frye at his rooms at Stegmaier’s Hotel last evening and it is just possible that the interview may re- sult in the two opposing armies coming to some agreement. eee Sener $1.25 To Baltimore and Retarn $1.25 Tickets to Baltimore and return will be sold by the Pennsylvania railroad June 9 and 10, good to return until the 11th, at $1.25.
