Police Authorities Refuse to Grant a Permit for a Parade. Contrary to their desire and expectation the commonwealers will not escort Messrs. Coxey, Browne and Jones from jail tomor- Yow when they are released from confine- ™ent. The reason for this is that Capt. Austin would not issue a permit allowing the Coxeyites to parade the city streets on and, learning of this refusal, Carl rescinded his order directing the to assemble at the jail and an- that Coxey and himself would go quietly to the National Hotel morning and go out to the camp at High- lands in the afternoon. The men at the Coxey camp are pursuing their usually file course, and seem to be | @verse to doing any kind of work, having refused many offers of it that have been ex- tended to them.

A Continuous Ride te the Heart of the City for Suburban Residents— Clearing House System. A weil attended meeting of the Brightwooa Avenue Citizens’ Association of Brightwood was held last night in Brightwood Hall. | The meeting was called to order at 8 o'clock, with Wm. A. Gatley, president, in the chair, and A. L. Keene as secretary. The proposed amendment to the constitu- tion to abolish all standing committees, and that special committees should be appointed whenever needed, after some discussion was tnanimously carried. The old officers were re-elected as follows: President, Wm. A. Gatley; vice president, Capt. T. A. Lay; secretary, A. L. Keene; treasurer, A. G. Osborne. The special committee appointed at the last meeting to appear before the District Commissioners and Congress in the interest of the fire, police and rail questions was increased by the addition of two new members, and is now composed of the fol- lowing: Capt. Thos. N. Lay, A. L. Keene, Major L. P. Williams, N. E., Robinson, E. T. Bates and W. Cox. b On motion of C Lay the secretary was requested to ask the chief of police to leave a key of the police telephone, in Bright- wood, at Mr. Mattingly’s store, for the use of the citizens in case of fire or police ser- vice. Railroad Facts From Other Cities. Mr. A. L. Keene, the secretary, who has been at work for some three months in gathering statistics relative to suburban street railroads, ard has received personal letters from seventy-five mayors of the leading cities in the country, submitted the draft of a memorial to the District Commis- sioners and to both houses of Congress on this subject, which, after debate, was, with a few amendments, adopted. The memorial is as follows: “After communicating with the mayors of eighty-five cities in the: United States, the appended statistics were recelved from sev- enty-five of them. Twenty-two cities have forty-seven wholly suburban street roads, of which twenty-six enter the hearts of the cities on their extended tracks, four enter on other roads and thirteen transfer to city roads. Of the thirteen that transfer with city roads, five do so without additional charge, and six charge an additional fare of five cents. The tracks of 121 city roads have been extended into the suburbs. Of this number thirty-three charge an addi- tional fare. In the majority of ‘cases the additional charge is when the roads extend into the suburbs eight, ten and fifteen miles. “Six cities have belt roads, three of them being steam and three electric. Memphis has a clearing house system, whereby all roads, except two, enter a unlon station in the heart of the city, where a transfer is given, which entitles the holder to a con- Unuous ride-to any portion of the city or suburbs without additional charge. Only a few’ cities have the antiquated horse or mule car. From the above it will be seen that the District, the capital of the nation, is behind other cities In a great many par- ticulars. < “In the majority of the cities in all sec- tion of the country suburban street rail- way facilities are enjoyed, and of that num- ber a majority enter the heart of the city without additional cost, twenty-six entering on their own tracks. “The people living alohg the Brightwood street railroad are dropped at Florida ave- nue, and are required to pay an additional fare to any portion of the elty, or else walk, while the Eckington road carries her pas- sengers to the business portions of the city on its tracks, and even to Georgetown by transfer. It can be readily seen by a casual observer, or by referring to the com- pany’s annual report of 18%, that this sec- tion justly claims better treatment, as its passenger resources from Florida avenue to and beyond the District line are greater than those of any other section. “We therefore respectfully urge that the Brightwood Railroad Company be permitted to extend its tracks to the center of the city; and to accomplish that object that the plan of the Traction Railroad Company and its bill before Congress may receive your sanction, together with the proposed branch of the Brightwood Railroad Company down New Jersey avenue to the Capitol. We also most respectfully urge that all new roads end all roads changing their systems of traction be required to adopt such a system of underground electric propulsion as can be used by suburban. trolley roads. As cit- izens of the suburbs we feel that we have a right to claim passage to the heart of the city of Washington by a continuous ride for one fare. “We would recommend to your careful con- sideration the clearing house system now in vogue in Memphis, which we consider the best solution of the transfer question. The universal transfer system is eminently un- just, and would mean death to all small city roads or to suburban roads, especially to the Brightwood road. “Hoping that you will act favorably upon our petition, whereby a large suburban pop- ulation may be enabled to reach their offices and places of business, and avoid the pres- ent unjust discrimination or tax, we will ever pray, &c.” —_——-— THREE YEARS AT HARD LABOR. The Sentence Imposed by Judge Me- Comas on Police Office Terry. Judge McComas yesterday afterpoon sen- tenced Policeman Charles By. 'Tatry, who last November shot Willis Washington, a yeung colored man, to three years in the Albany penitentiary at hard labor. Terry was convicted in the Criminal Court several @ays ago upon an indictment charging him with assault with intent to kill. Motion for a new trial was entered by his counsel, and that motion was briefly argued yester- day afternoon. The motion was overruled by Judge McComas, who stated that Terry had received a fair and impartial trial, the jury rendering a verdict which, epinion of the court, was a pre-eminently proper one. In reaching their verdict the jury had seen fit to disregard Terry's. con- tentton that the shooting was accidental, and in doing so they had exercised a right pecullarly their own. Judge MeComas took occasion to remak that he would always uphold ofhcers of the law in the legitimate and proper exercise of their duties, but emphasized the fact that such officers must themselves at all times act kawfully and wholly within the law. When they went beyond the law they would Be held to a strict accountability. When the judge asked Terry if he had anything to say why the sentence of the law should not be pronounced upon him, the miserable man vainly attempted to’ say something, but was unable to, control his emotions. Handing the judge a written statement, he threw himseif down in a chair, and, covering his face in his hands, wept like’ a child. After reading Terry's statement, Judge McComas told Terry that he had carefully considered everything in connection with the circumstances of the case and felt that the sentence should not be less than three years in the penitentiary, which sentence he imposed. Judge McComas was even more merciful than Terry anticipated, for he directed that the sentence should run from the day of instead of commencing, as is vsual, upon the day of the convict’s arrival at the penitentiary. An appeal was noted by Terry's counsel to the Court of Appeals, and as that court cannot dispose of the case much earlier than October next, Terry will remain in jail here until then. Should | the Court of Appeals sustain the conviction, as it is generally anticipated it will do, ‘Terry would then have but ‘about two years to serve in the penitentiary, the time spent in jail pending the appeal and the good time reduction reducing the three-year sen- tence to about that length of time. “A Woman's Cutting Remark” ts what Pastor E.

Albaugh’s.—On Monday night the Stra- kosch Comic Opera Company will present Johann Stravss’ melodious composition, en- titled “The Gipsy Baron.” This opera has not been heard here for two years and it will be heartily welcomed. ‘he manage- ment has had new scenery painted and new costumes ordered trom New York. The cast is an unusually strong one and will do justice to the noted Gerinan composer's beautiful music. 1t comprises Miss Laura Millard as Saffe, Miss Mamie Gilroy as Ottakar, Miss Louisa Moore as Arsena, Miss Alice Hosmer as Czipra, Madam Moore as Mirabella, Charles Bigelow as Kalman Zsupan, Fred Huntley a3 Sandar Barinkay, J. K. Adams as Peter Homonay, Maurice Hageman as Count Carmero, Mr. Fisher as Joszi, Jchn Lawes «s Pali. The argument of the “Gipsy Baron” is a pleasing one, with a thread of more than ordinary intelligence. While it 18 eastly followed, it affords bright situations and gives opportunity for the charming melody for which Strauss is neted. The action of the piece takes place in the River ‘Temes near Vienna. The story is simple in plot. Count Carnero has re- turned with Sandar Barinkay, a gipsy by birth, and who ts the rightful owner of the estates inhabited by a tribe of gipsies, con- trolled principally by Czipra. Barinkay in regaining the estates, robs the pig dealer Zsupan, and by his comical scheme en- deavors to wed Barinkay to his daughter Arsena, so as to keep the estate in the family. This is agreed to by the commissioner of morals, but to the great distress of Ot- takar, son of Mirabelle, who is in love with Arsena. Being informed of her intended marriage, an engagement made solely by her father, she objects and demands that when her father marries her it will be to a baron. Anything less she refuses to ac- cept. In the meantime Barinkay has met the gipsy hag, Czipra, who, in reading his hand, informs him of a buried treasure in the ruins of the castle on his own estate. Barinkay, anxious to proceed at once jn search of the wealth, calls upon Saffe to escort him in the night to the place of hid- Ing. The treasure is found, but then is in- troduced Strauss’ greatest number, the Jewel Waltz. Barinkay, overcome by the beauty of Saffe, renounces his love for Ar- sena and bestows his heart upon Saffe. In the midst of this, recruits are wanted for war. Count Homonay succeeds in _recrait- ing Barinkay, Zsupan, Ottakar and all the peasants, gipsies, etc. In the service for his country Barinkay receives the title of baron and has become fabulously wealthy, and on his return marries Saffe, the gipsy | girl. Arsena is given her own choice, Ot- takar. All are rried happily and the opera closes in a grand reunion. af New National Theater.—‘My Awful Dad, which made such a big hit last season, will be the attraction at the New National Theater next week, which will be the third week of the comedy season. Kernan’s Lyceum Theater.—The opening night of the sparring tournament for the colored championship of the District wi very successful in point of attendance an as an exhibition of the “manly art of self- deferse.” Kernan’s Theater was crowded from pit to dome, and the audience were kept in a constant state of enthusiasm by the clever work of the sparrers. A tele- graph operaior in the audience became so excited during one of the bouts that he undertook to ciean out the house. He was badly handled by the crowd, in addition to which he was hustled out by the police and locked up in the first precinct station. He gave his name as Breen. There were eleven bouts on the stage in the different classes, and the victors will meet tonight in the finals. Tony Brown and Joe Ranks opened the exhibition with an exceedingly clever bout. They are feather-weights. Banks had a shade the best of It and received the de- cision. Mason won easily from Small in the same class, and Howard, middle-weight, beat Adams without much trouble. Cole- man and Johnson, middle-weights, Tted a bout, but were called off the stage for “faking.” The best fight. of the evening followed, between Holcomb and Robinson, middle-weight rivals of long standing. They were very evenly matched and fought for keeps. “The bouts were of three rounds, but it took five’to tell which had the best of this engagement. Referee McCoy decided.m favor of Holcomb and was loudiy jeered by the audience. The next bout did not last-long. It was between Jaynie and Jackson, middle- weights. The former hit the latter on the jaw and he curled up on the floor, Robin- gon took “his place, but he was too tired from his previous efforts to stand the fast pace that Jaynie cut out for him. Jaynie is @ very clever sparrer and will probably take the prize in his class. There was but one veal bout In the heavy-weight class, that between Jennings and Phillips, in whieh the former was outclassed and permitted Phil- Ups to pummel ‘him unmercifully, Jackson got the decisfon in his bout with Smith in the feather-weight class by the narrowest kind of a margin. Then a white boy named Jackson undertook to fight a colored boy named Johnson, and was so badly punished in the first round that the police stopped the fight. Woody, a tall negro, bested Hal! in the heav¥-weight class, simply because the latter could not reach up to his head. The entertainment closed with a vicious fight between two white boys named Grean and Harris. They came together Yor five rounds, Harris having a trifle the best of It, They were both pretty well banged up and Green could hardly stand. The referee said he could not pick the winner and ordered another round. Thereupon Poliee Lieuten- | ant Amiss entered the ring and stopped the | fight, and the curtain fell. Tonight the finals will take place, and Jack Dougherty | will spar with Billy Yeung. . oe EXCURSIONS, ‘Tomorrow will be one of those rare days | at beautiful River View that a great crowd | will delight in; at every breath of country | air ls sweetness and purity, and at every turn pleasure awaits you.

An Opera by Washington Talent to Be Presented at Albaugh'’s—Pro- posed “Three Dukes” Tour. A French scientist has asserted that the odor of flowers is injurious to the voice, an it 1s said that several singers in Paris have refused to have flowers about them. If this idea could only UW adopted here what a sav- ing of money it would be for the admirers | of fair vocalists, who feel that on every oc- | casion when their favorites are heard they | must send up big bunches of flowers or | elaborately filled baskets over the footlights. | But then the thought comes as to what the | substitute tribute for flowers should be. It might bea box of candy; but then candy | is, bad for the voice, too. It might be a/ piece of jewelry, but that would be more expensive than the flowers. It is hardly likely that the practice of overwhelming a pretty or popular singer with flowers will Bo out of date in this country or in this city very soon. A tribute of flowers is as flattering to a female vocalist as is the ap- plause of the audience,and she will probably continue to exact it notwithstanding the warning of the eminent French savant. t seems that the contract for the organ | Convention Hall has not yet been | signed. A committee of. musicians consid- | ered the subject carefully at the request of | the hall management and prepared a plan | for an organ that would be suitable either for,solo work or for the support of a large chérus. The plan was accepted and bids on it Were asked of and received from several Standard organ builders. These bids were turned over to the committee, who recom- mended the acceptance of one or two— either the proposal of Odell or of Hook & Hastings. Both these builders are well known and the committee felt that the work of either would be satisfactory. The report was accepted, and it was believed that the lower of the two bids would cer. tainly be accepted. Under the impression that this would be the case the Choral So- clety commenced to formulate its plans for the next two years. It seems now,however, that the hall management is endeavoring to secure a second-hand organ at a greatly reduced price. When this is rebuilt and placed in Convention Hall it may prove sultable or it may not. In the meantime, the Choral Society is at a standstill and cannot go on with its plans on the lines it had marked out until something definite is krown as to the organ. What the result will be cannot be predicted at this time. The recent plaro and vocal recital by the pupils of Miss Hattie M. Ritchie, held at the Builders’ Exchange, was an enjoyabie gecasion. The pupils who took part were Miss Olive W. Greene, Miss Irene Sherwood, Miss Bertha Ritter, Miss Emily Dugan, Miss Louise M. Seward, Miss Katie Bacon, Miss Mamie P. Wolfe,’Miss Anna J. Bap. Usta, Miss May Devereux, Miss Grace Con- | Holly, Miss Kate Halloran, Mrs. F. A. Ste- phens, Miss Bertie M. Clark, Miss Fannie O'Hare, Miss Mollie Daly, Annie Miller, Miss Mamie L. Jordan, Mr. R. Wile Mam Devereux, Mr. T. J. Duffy, Mr. Ber- nard Atchison and Master Morgan Sher- wood. Miss Ritchie herseif sang the well- known cavatina from “Ernani,” and she was assisted by the Capital Mandolin and | Banjo Club, Mr, Edward Schwartz, violin- ist, and Miss Nannie Kearon, accompanisi. Last night Metzerbtt's Hall was well filled with the friends of Miss Katie Wilson and her pupils, and the program presented was enjoyable in every respect. The program included chorus and solo work,.the choruses being selected from the cantata “Kin Rene's Daughter,” which was so success- fully presented during the winter under Miss Wilson’s direction. All the numbers Were well received, particularly those by Miss Wilson herself and Miss Thompson. Miss Bertha Lucas played a violin obligato | to Miss Wilson's Si Saran Rose, by Arditi, | and Mr. Henry Jaeger performed the sams service on the flute for Miss Thompgon, who sang Wallace's “Happy Birdling.” The others who participated in the program were Misses Thompson, Hodgkin-Colller, Brown, Nye, Pillsbury, Weedop, Ray, Bis- coe, Mrs. W.

The year of the comic opera, “Vuur Bril, or The Evil Eye,” at Albaugh’s will bring to the front Washington talent, and the opera is expected to make a hit.

Closing Contest of the Columbian Uni- versity Law School Society. For many years the debating society at Columbian University Law School has brought the work of the term to a close with a prize debate, in which members rep- resenting the various classes of the school strive for the mastery. A two-fold decision is rendered by the judges—first, as to the merit of the debate of the two opposing forces, and, second, as to the individual merit of the arguments. The second de- cision is the basis for the award of the prize, a sum of money, offered by the de- bating society. Last evening the annual contest took place in the hall of the university. The judges were Senator Geo. C. Perkins, Li- brarian A. R. Spofford and Mr. Calderon Cerlisile. The question under consideration was: “Resolved, That the relations existing between the legislative and executive branches of the English government are better adapted to American conditions than those existing in this country.” The affirmative of the question received the support of Messrs. James M. Gray, J. H. Thomas and Adolphe Monell Sayre; the negative was upheld by Messrs. Albert D. Spangler, J. Walter Barbour and Walter T. Colquitt. These speakers, together with the judges, President Welling of the university and Vice President Stuart of the debating society, were seated upon the platform. A very appreciative audience of friends was present, and the interest and enthusiasm of the speakers found a ready response in TETTER FOR FIFTEEN YEARS ON FACE AND SCALP, PHYSICIANS PKESCRIP- TIONS AND REMEDIES FAIL.

ONE For more than fifteen years I was affected with Turning Tetter on my face and scalp. Various pre- scriptions and many rewedics were furnished, be- ing afterward treated by many physicians, avd all to no avail. I bad lost all hope of ever being cur- ed, and concluded that I was disfigured for life. A friend persuaded me to give the CUTICURA REMEDIES u trial, which I did in this way: Tak- ing the CUTICURA RESOLVENT two teaspoon- fuls after each meal, bathed the affected parts tn warm water with CUTICURA SOAP, and applied the CUTICURA freely until the crusts were ail re- | moved. In one month my face and scalp were perfectly smooth. I give this cheerful testimony for the benefit of all who are thus affected. T. J.

The Debate Opened. The exercises of the evening opened with a selection by the Columbian University Banjo and Guitar Clubs. Mr. Julius W. Stuart, vice president of the society, wel- ecmed the audience in a few well-chosen ard fitly spoken words. He then introduced Mr. James M. Gray of the senior class, who opened the debate for the affirmative. Mr. Gray held that the English government was a higher development of seme of the same principles which are embodied in our own | Constitution; that England had enjoyed the benefit of many mere years of experience, ard the system of government that there been evolved would naturaliy be of a higher order than cur own, He claimed that the veto power was a useless restriction upon legislation, and one which the English government had done away with, Mr. Albert D. Spangler, in opening the debate for the negative, said thai the bur- den of proof lay upon his adversaries. He said that even though the affirmative should prove that the system of England was beneficial to that country, they had yet to prove its adaptability to the changed conditions here. He further contended that the progress and development of this coun- try was due in large measure to our sys- tem of government, and that the present mode of government was the most practical which could be adopted. A strong argument for the affirmative was delivered by Mr. J. H. Thomas. Mr. J. Walter Barbour, the second speaker on the negative, contended that the present was the only practicable system of government for this country. Mr. Adolphe Monell Sayre made a most eloquent and able argument in support of the affirmative of the question. Mr. Walter T. Colquitt next spoke upon the negative. He held that the British form of government was not applicable to this country on account of the vastness of our territory. The Affirmative Won. The debate was closed for the negative and affirmative sides by Messrs. Spangler and Gray, who carefully summed up the ar- guments as presented. The judges then withdrew, and while they were formulating their detision the Columbian Banjo and Guitar clubs rendered two selections in a charming manner. The decision of the Judges was then rendered by Mr. Spofford, who said that the affirmative had won by the excellence of their arguments. The de- cision as to which speaker shall have the prize will be announced at the commence- ment next Tuesday evening. The committee in charge of the arrange- ments for the prize debate was as follows: Brainard Avery, chairman; Geo. F. Will- | jams, Elias Nathan Butts, Lee Mason Jor- dan, Frank Kyselka, Franklin EB. Barrett, Chas. A, Brown. —-—-._——. FOR THE SHARPLESS CUP.
