Now, which will you have?” This is the way in which justice is dis- pensed in the Desplaines street police court. A dicker is made, if possible, with the pris- oner in the dock, much on the same prin- ciple as goods are sold on the bargain eoun- ter of a Cheap John store. Last night Thomas Gibbons, a teamster, bought a chicken sandwich from a peddler the corner of Desplaines and Meridian streets, and, after eating the same, re- fused to pay for it. Officer Ulimacher felt called upon to arrest him, and he was ar- raigned before Justice Doyle in the De- splaines street court this morning. After telling all the details of the transaction the officer said: “And when he was searched at the sta- tion he had two your honor.” At this remark Justice Doyle brightened up. and, grasping his . said: “Is that so? Did Gibbons pleaded guilty to the charge of having an unusual amount of money for a Desplaines street prisoner and the court continued : “Well, I'll make it $ if you want to pay, but if not the fime will be $10. Which will you have?” “If I have been guilty of any wrong- doing I am willing to pay, but—” “That will do. Take $, Mr. Cierk.” “But I don’t think I am guilty, and I don’t propose to pay a fine,” remarked the prisoner. “Oh, very well,” said Justice Doyle. “You can make it $10, Mr. Clerk. Take him down stairs,” and the prisoner was | away to await the arrival of the bridewell "bus. see, Why It Failed.

AMID SMILES AND FLOWERS —_>—__—_ The National Fencibies left last night for Little Rock, Ark., where they take part in the prize drill. “Fall in!” shouted First Ser- g@eant R. C. Rice; “Right face; forward, march,” commanded Capt. C. 8. Domer, and tramp! tramp! tramp! with rythmic tread, the soldier boys marched away. Out from the drill hall they moved in twos, along the market house Rialto and duwn the avenue by fours, without the throb of drum, the song of bugle or the shriek of fife, but with a martial step that seemed to say “prize,” “prize,” “prize,” as the Fencibles strode along.

Cheering “The Cup.” in volleys under the trucks of the coaches and some one pulled off his hat and yelled “Three cheers for the National Fencibles,” and the great throng that packed and jam- med the depot turned loose its pent-up en- thusiasm. Ss Although the time scheduled for assembly was 9:30, yet the boys—for it is in this parental style that Washingtonians love to tell of them—were very early on the ground. There was a high degree of hustle and busy scenes were being enacted by the soldiers before the city lights began to burn. Trunks ‘were packed and expressed to the depot by 6 o'clock. Besides the things common to all trunks, these particular trunks contained five sets of uniform for each man. This ty ete “On to Little Rock.” Berry Wall outfit consisted of company full- dress uniform of green and gold bullion, com, y white duck uniform, company black fatigue uniform, government fatigue and government full-dress uniforms. The new Springfields, which the men will carry at inspection, were also shipped from the armory early in the evening. Center of Admiring Eyes. At 9:30 the Fencibles adjourned to the drill room and toed the line. They carried the weapons with which they hope to win the prize ih clean new fleece-lined canvas cases, had their knapsacks strapped on, and, in many instances, @ valise harnessed over their shoulder. The crowd surged into the hall, and representatives of the follow- want) ay “De Ossifer’s M ing companies testified to the business-like appearance of the drillers by applause and cheers: Campbell Light Infantry, Colurn- bian Zouaves, Ordway Rifles, Fifth Bat- talion, Troop A, Morton Cadets, Corcoran Treasury Guards, Government commanding first regiment, D. x Maj.

Smoking kerosene torches that blazed on clam carts furnished the only il- lumination not provided by the street lamps and shop windows. The Fencibles were hap- | pily stowed away in two sleepers, whose | names were covered up by canvas strips ex- tending the full length of the coaches and bearing the legend, in big black and ied letters, “National Fencibles, Washington, Dc.” Prophecies of victory were freely made, and some of the admirers of the company a Campbell | Wardwell, C.

The Emmet Guards Have Gone. ‘The Emmet Guards left Washington on a Norfolk and Western train at 2:30 o'clock this afternoon, and will reach Little Rock in time to participate in the interstate drill for the cup emblematic of the championship of the United States, and a cash prize of $2,500. It was late last night when the members of the command were notified that the funds requisite for the actual expenses of the journey had been secured, and they were much elated at the news, in spite of the knowledge that they would be compell- ed to rough it considerably on the trip, «& it was decided to fo! the comforts of sleeping cars because of the limited money at their disposal. They were pretty conti- dent of coming back in a palace c: even if they went away in day coaches, as they expressed themselves of the opinion that they had a fair fighting chance for winning the contest. A large number of their friends assembled at the armory and went with the guards to the train, which was started off with general cheering and good wishes. ———- +e IT AROUSED fHE COMMONS. Mr. Hardie, M. P., Scores Royalty an@ Creates a Sensation. There was an unexampled scene in the British house of commpns Thursday evening when Sir William Vernon Harcourt, sup- ported by Mr. Balfour, moved an address of congratulation to the queen upon the birth of an heir to the Duke of York. The motion was about to be put when, amid exclematicns of surprise from all parts of the house, James Keir Hardie, a democrat and a socialist, and probably the most prominent of the labor members of parliament, arose and said: “I owe allegiance to no hereditary ruler. (Cries of ‘Oh! Oh!) The motion proposes to raise the tmportance of an event of everyday occurrence. I am delighted to learn that the child is fairly healthy. (More cries of ‘Oh! Oh!’) I shall be pleased to join in the ordinary congratulations if I meet the child's parents. But when the house of commons, representing the nation, is asked to join in congratulations, then, in the interests of the dignity of the house, 4 protest. “There is one aspect of the question which concerns the hoyse of commons, a cabinet minister was required to be preaent upon this interesting occasion. I submit that such a proceeding is not calculated to enhance the dignity of this house in the eyes of the nation. (Vehement interruption and cries of ‘Order!’ ‘Rot!’) “You may say ‘rot,’ ’ continued Mr. Mar- die, “‘but if you mixed with those you rep- resent you would find that the people view this paatiee ace different manner. It ems to me that some protest ought to be made in this connection. It is a matter of small concern to me whether the future ruler of this country is a genuine article or @ spurious one. The motion was mad because the child was born in the roy: family, and the house has a right to ask what particular blessing the royal family has conferred upon the nation that it par- take in these proceedings. We are told that the queen has ruled for haif a century. I beg to correct this by saying that her majesty has reigned and not ruled. There is the Prince of Wales. What special bless- ing has he conferred upon the nation that we cep haan with him?” Colonel underson, the great Orange leader, here interposed, amid scene Of great excitement in the house, and moved tha the honorable member for West Hampshire (Mr. Hardie) be no longer heard. (Loud cheers). Sir Wm. Harcourt said that he hoped Col. Saunderson would not press his motion, and Mr. Hardie was allowed to continue. He added: “I know nothing in the career of his royal highness which commends itself especially to me. (Loud interruption: “We are told that a fierce light bea: the throne, but sometim upon we catch glimp- ses of his royal highness on the race course. G.; (Loud ‘Oh’s’ and cries of ‘Question. “We know one thing, and that is that as the Duke of Cornwall he draws £60,000 yearly from property in London.” The speaker here arose and said that the honorable member must confine himself to discussing the resolution, Mr. Hardie thereupon resumed, saying: “The house is asked to rejoice because a child is born, but up to the present there are no means of knowing his qualifications to reign over this great empire. It is strange that people who have so much to say about the hereditary element in another place should be so willing now to indorse it in this particular instance. He is the same in both cases. This child will be surfounded by sycophants and flatterers and will be taught to belleve himself superior to creation. due course of time he will tour the world, with rumors of morganatic marriages in his train. (Vociferous cries of dissent.) “As the house has not found time to vote condolence with the widows, orphans and others who are suffering from the terrible co calamity in Wales I protest against the present mummery.” The motion wag then put, Mr.Hardie alone iesting, and it was adopted amid loud sed cheering. get discussion was then resumed. ‘True to Monarchy. Lord Rosebery,in the house of lords Thurs- | day, in moving en address of congratula- tion to the queen upon the birth of an heir to the Duke of York, said that there was no absolute guarantee in this world against evil. But the most important guarantee of | the performance of the actual form of gov- ernment was the fact that the queen had no fewer than three direct heirs. The pre- mier added that the monarchy, by the lapse of centuries, had assumed functions rather social than political. ‘The Marquis of Salisbury said that he would supplement Lord Rosebery’s remarks by stating that the present form of govern- ment was the only one possible in order to rally the numerous races and creeds which were under the queen's sway. The motion was adopted. ——_— +04 — Tit for Tat. From Puck.

ANDREWS Corner Stone of the Church to Be Laid Tomorrow. A FRIVING AND GROWING PARISH Handsome Plan for the Latest Ad- dition to Episcopal Worship. THE PARISH HISTORY Tomorrow the corner stone of the new St. Andrew's Protestant Episcopal Church, cor- ner of 14th and Corcoran streets northwest, ‘will be laid, and from then on till the date of completion, the new edifice will be rapid- ly pushed. The extension of this church, following closely that of the St. Thomas Church at Dupont circle, will be an im- portant step for the Episcopalians in that part of the city in their church work, as well as a notable addition to the city from an architectural point of view. The new church structure will combine, in a re- markable degree, both beauty and conven- fence, and in fts construction neither is to be sacrificed to the other. As can be seen from the perspective view accompanying, the lines of the building are externally simple and pleasing, being Goth- gables afford a magnificent opportunity for the display of stained glass, appropriate de- signs for which are under consideration. The tints of the glass and interior decora- tion will be sapphire tones—St. Andrew's breenisertl el parr unmet oo sce about the new structure. Both and electric light is wided for building will bo ware ther by steam or hot water. The General Plan. At the floor line the plan of the building forms @ parallelogram 72 by 120 feet. The principal entrance will be from Corcoran street through sheltered double doors into & spacious vestibule. At the west end of this vestibule will be located an entrance from 14th street, and at the east end is lo- cated the stairs leading to a gallery which extends over the central portion of the vestibule. In the south end of the butiding the chancel and altar are p! On the west of and communicating with the chan- cel is the robing room, and over the robin; room is the rector’s study. To the east of the chancel and opening on to it and on to the main body of the church through large arched openings is the organ with a large space in front of it for the accommodation of a choir of sixteen or more. The west wall of the old structure will form the east wall of the new building and will be cut away so as to form a communi- cation between the old and new edifices, which will be shut off by meang of glass paneled doors when extra space is not required. The floor will be sloped from the vestibule to the chancel, and the only thing to intercept the view will be the pillars leading to the lantern, The new church will seat about 1,000 persons. The pews are to be divided by a center and two side isles. The architects of the new church are Charles W. Murdock and Clarence L. Harding, and the builder is J. A. Rodbird. St. Andrew’s Parish. St. Andrew's perish was established in 1857. Mr, Caleb Cushing donated the square at the corner of 14th street and Thomas circle, where the Luther Memorial Church now stands, upon certain conditions to be fulfilled by the congregation. The founda- tion of a handsome building was laid, but the war coming on the congregation was scattered, and the conditions of Mr. Cush- ing’s gift being unfulfilled, the property re- turned to the donor. Several clergymen were sent by the bishop of Maryland, who conducted services in private houses until the Rey. Mr. Harris gave his services to the parish. A small room on P street near the Riggs market was secured, where the minister, acting not ofily as a priest, but doing the work of a sexton also, with un- swerving fidelity kept the congregation to- gether until 1881, when, through the as- sistance of a number of churchmen of neighboring parishes, the present lot was purchased and a small chapel was erected. Mr. Harris was elected rector. Rev. Josiah B, Perry was called as rector from St.Paul’s parish. Prince George's coun- ty, Md., in 1867. The first Easter offering in this chapel was over. $4,000. The chapel was twice enlarged, its seating capacity being increased to 700, but this proving insufficient for the large Episcopal population the offi- cers felt that they could no longer delay the erection of the main building. There are over 500 communicants connected with the parish and nearly 1,200 members, among Whom are many prominent citizens. [he Sunday school is large and flourishing under its superintendent, Mr. Fulton Lewis, The charity work is carried on by a parochial society consisting of 150 members, divided into five chapters, members of which may be often seen in the cottages of the poor, in the hospitals and other places. Within ‘the past few months over $1,000 has been ex- | pended in this kind of work. St. Andrew's Brotherhood is alive to the work of young men and the Young Ladies’ Rector’s Aid has earned hundreds of dollars for the edu- cation of young men for the ministry, be- sides working tor the furniture of the new church. The income of the church is derived from pew rents, which are kept as low as possi- ble, so that persons of moderate means may not be excluded, and the regular offerings at services. The congregation is not to be called upon with subscription lists, and the finances of the church are conducted upon strictly business principles, the income for the year just ended beiag over $10,0u0. Parish Bounds, The parish is bounded on the east by 12th street, on the south by K street, on the west by 19th street as far as P street, and with the exception of the square on which stands the St. Thomas’ Church, by 18th street from P street, and on the north by Florida avenue. The lot owned by the church has a frontage of 120 feet on 14th street and 103 feet on Corcoran street, all of which will be covered by the church and parish hall. When the church and the parish halls are thrown into each other 1,500 persons can be seated. The music at the church is notably good, and is furnish- ed by a choir containing a number of fine voices. St. Andrew's parish excited the especial interest of Bishop Pinkney, and it was through his personal solicitation that the resent réctor, whom he ordained at the ipiphany Church, in this city, assumed charge in 1887, having had but one ih before coming here, that of St. ul's, Prince George's county, Md. officers of the church are as follows: Rector, Rev.

Its Owner Says He is All Ready f the Sandy Waste to Become a Sea. From the San Cant, “One of the queerest and most surpris- ing sights I ever saw in all my wanderings over the wilds of this country,” said K. C. Traver, @ well-known prospector and civil engineer, a few days ago, “was a newly constructed brig lying on the floor of Death Valley. An@ it is there yet, so that any- body can see it. “When I first saw it I was almost para- lyzed. I could not believe my eyes, and thought I must have passed through some mental laps® and was not in Death Valley atall. But, after gazing at the strange ob- ject a few minutes, and then looking around me and seeing the wastes of burn- ing sands and feeling the hot breath of the desert wind, I knew that everything about me was most realistically real. “It was by the merest chance that I ran across the vessel,” said Mr. Traver, “be- had I been a few feet further south ould never have seen it. You see, I had in sight and sound of the sea. A Pretty Girl From Washington.

Of course, I at once concluded that he knew something about the brig. I was right, and in a few moments he explained the whole thing to me, and also showed to what ends'a foolish idea will drive a man. “He said ‘that his name was Frederick Evans, thdt-he was a shipbuilder by trade, and one‘ ofthe Callfornia pioneers of "4.

It was then that he got it into his head that the water would eventu- ally reach that locality, and he was deter- maaet Sere the first vessel to float in the new'sea. Evans was not a poor man, but had enough’ money to hire a couple of men to hélp him lay the keel of the vessel, put in the masts, and do the other heavy work, At'first the work was pushed rapid- ly, but when the water commenced to re- ced took things easy and did all the work himself, because he thought the water Would hot come again for a year. He has been disappointed every year since, but still thinks that Death Valley will be- come a sea and he is ready for it. “I was weil treated by Evans,” said Mr. ‘Traver, in eancluding. “He took me to his abode, which was a deep cave a few feet from the brig, with a delightful tempera- ture. I stayed with him two days and found him a well-educated man and very interesting, but when I left him his last words were, ‘When the water rises I will be ready for it.’ ———+e.

Are women, dear Lady Betty, angels in disguise or angels in disgrace? This ap- pears to be @ perpetual problem. Let me then submit a few observations which may assist to solve it. A woman's day should begin at night. Women are always wishing that men were true; men are always wishing that women were new, A woman generally makes the worst of a | good husband; a man generally makes the | best of a bad wife. | Any man with a heart fs attracted toward | those who suffer; any woman with a heart is attracted toward those who prosper, 1f you want to know woman, marry her. Many a womag can make every home happy but her own. ‘ell a child that he is good, a man that he is great, and a woman that she is beau- uful. Vanity is woman's conscience. Women are very good to eat, but very bad to digest. A woman is strongest when she ts weak- est; a man is weakest when he is strongest, A woman's love is boldering, till you get it; then it’s embarrassing.
