The Marine Band to Be Heard in * Popular Sclections—What the wers Will Do. It is understood that the firemen and po- lice, who have the distribution of the tick- ets for the concert that {= to be given at the Academy of Music tomorrow night for the bereft of the families of the firemen who were killed in the recent disastrous fire, are meeting with good success, and there is every indication of a large attendance. The sale of reserved seats commenced to- day at the box office of the Academy, and for these the regular prices of that house will obtain. Prof. Fanciulli, the conductor of the band, has prepared a good program, and the people who attend the concert will hear this splendid organization in some of its best work. The numbers are generally popular selections, none of them being heavy or too classical. The band numbers awill be as follows: “The Evening Star March,” by Fanciulli; overture to “William Tell,” Rossini; selection from the opera of “Tabasco,” Chadwick; descriptive fantasia, “The Night Alarm,” Reeves; medley, “The Metropolis by Night,” De Witt; comic tatoo, and the “Coxey Army Patrol,” by Orth. The vocalists who vili participate in the Program will be Miss Dorothy Byrde Rogers, Miss Mary Helen Howe, Mrs. John Seagur, Mr. T. Williams-Pearman, Mr. Homer Lind and Signor Mariano Maina. | Miss Rogers will sing the grand aria from “Der Freischutz,” Miss Howe will sing a duet with Signor Maina from Donezetti's opera, “L’Elisir @'Amour;” Mrs. Seagur will also sing a duet with Signor Maina from ‘Don Pasquale; Mr. Lind, who is well re- membered in this city as Louis Lindheimer, will sing a monologue, “Heilige Nach from the opera of “Aemnechen Von Thara, by Heinrich Hoffmann. Mr. Willlams-Pear- man will sing a tenor solo, and those who have heard his voice assert that it is far beyond the ordinary, both in sweetness of tone and in compass. The accompanists will be Prof. Harry Wheaton Howard, Prof. William Waldecker and Miss Batley. The generous manner in which the public bas respond-d to the call made upon its sympathy by the sad accident in which these firemen lost their lives. is sufficient evidence that they will turn out in full numbers to listen to the excellent program which wiil be Presented tomorrow night. It is rare that such a combination of talent is presented in cne entertainment, and the prompt manner in. which a!l volunteered their services shows their deep sympathy with the afflicted fam- flies. The Commissioners generously al- lowed the police an firemen to dispose of the tickets, and although the firemen had but a short time before appealed to the pub- He in behalf of th> general relief fund, they have undertaken this special work with an earnestness that showed that they appreci- ate the tragic death of their late comrades and are willing to do all in their power to assist the bereaved familles. The returns are not all in from the Saturday night per- fermance at Albaugh’s, but Manager Allen bas already made a partial return. Additional Subscriptions.

PROVISIONAL REGIMENT IN CAMP Drilling in Earnest and Enjoying Themselves Also. SOMECAMPNOTES Military scisnce and tactics continue to Prevail as the most prominent feature of Camp Blake, at Marshall Hall. But al- though the men composing the provisional regiment of the District of Columbia Na- tional Guard are leading a strictly military life when withir camp bounds, each of them is equally as diligent in originating schemes to thoroughly enjoy himself when off duty. The latter is made comparatively easy by the presence of scores of beautiful girls who dally visit the boys in cemp. Daneing, bowling, bathing, horseback riding and base ball are among the pastimes indulged in. The men had but Ittle time to themselves yesterday, however, for Maj. Suess aroused them at daylight and kept them constantly moving until afte> dress parade in the even- ing. Guard mount in the morning was an immense improvement over the ceremony of the day befor2, Then for an hour the com- panies maneuvered about the drill field and attained an eppareat improvement in each ipstance during that short time. ‘The drum corps is not at Camp Flake sclely to look pretty and furnish music, but it also put in sixty minutes of hurd work in marchias and turning. Afterward, pzactice dre: parade was gone through with sever: tires. After breakfast the first sergeants were summoned to the quarters of the pest sur- geon and listened to a necessary lecture on the proper manner of preparing sick r ports, A feature of the dav was voluntal practice on the rifle range, a large number of the men taking adva se of the oppor- tunity to better their zim and their scores.

A great featur? with a majority of .the campers was the dinner served shortly be- | fore 1 o'clock. Capt. Myers had prepared a collation of pea soup, pork and beans, roast beef, potatoes, bread, butter and coffee, and from the manner in which the well-cooked | fcod disappeared one’ would think that the District of Columbia National Guardsmen were in a starving condition. The orderly bugler at headquarters was directed by*Maj. Suess to sound officers’ “call shortly after 4 o'clock, and when his subordinates had gathered, the command- ant requested them to don fatigue uniform, side arms and gloves, in order to be pho- tographed. Dr. Weaver posed the group and suet ully made an attractive pictur> of the scene. Mess cal for supper was next in order, and the men responded with alacrity. ‘Th were marched to the mess tent, and fot awaiting them a layout of brea d bread duff was a novelty to of the men, but they took to and could not obtain a s Sliced bread, fried in ith’ sirup as ing, is bread and the brave soldiers went for it like ravenously bun- NS gry wolves.

The ambu- lance corps will also be in attendance, but as Maj. Suess will order the men rot to fire at a closer range to one another than thirty paces, it is likely that the services of the “saw-bones” will not be required. Some Camp Notes. Maj. Suess received a visit from a lady yesterday, who desired to sell him a quanti- ty of toflet soap and perfumery. For a few minutes the gallant commander of the forces at Camp Blake was breathless, but finally recovered and faintly dismissed the visitor with the remark that he was not a dude officer, and it would be equal to com- mitting suicide for the men to learn that their commanding officer indulged in such extravagant and purely civilian luxuries as the articles mentioned. As an evidence that the hospital service of the camp ts doing business it was neces- sary to pay out $4.85 yesterday for medi- cines in addition to those provided by the government. Who is the umpire of the day?” asked a visiting young man of Adjt. Swigart. The base ball crank was told that Capt.

Hamilton called the meeting to order, and Uria Lawson of Urbana district, an ex. county commissioner of Frederick county was the chairman. Dr, Lloyd T.

At that time I was clerk at the supply store of the reservation in southern Colorado. Life was very dull out there and cne day, when a chief, accompanied by about twenty war- riers, came to the post, I thought I would get up a little boxing match just to break the monotony. I had a pair of boxing gloves, and after explaining their use the chicf, asked him to put them on with me. He at once agreed and we two went into a vacant room in the rear of the store just to spar a few rounds for points. It seems that the Indian had not fully under- stood my explanation in regard to the use of the gloves. , “After adjusting the gloves I told him how to stand and guard Iimself. Then I told tim to hit me if he could. Indians, you Ynow, never strike with their hands in con- flict, and the attempts he made to hit me were awkward in the extreme. All at once I struck out with my right, and, catching Mr. Chief under the ear, landed him in a heap on the floor. That was enough for him. Springing to his feet, he tore the gloves from his hands,and jerking his knife from his belt, he made for me to wipe out what he considered an irreparable insult. Taking in the situation In a moment I whipped out my revolver and, leveling it at his head, I told him if he moved another step I would blow his brains out. He halted and I proceeded to explain to him how it all came about and that-no offense was meant. He was loath to believe it, however, and it took him some time to cool down. At last, on my making him a present of a botile of whisky, he promised to renounce all hostile intentions, and on leaving the rcom called his companions and started at once for home.

Several years | THE EVENING STAR, TUESDAY, JULY 81, 1894-TWELVE PAGES. s THEY HAVE RETURNED Corcoran Cadets Back From a Highly Suo- cessful Camp. All Are Well. Promptly at 7 o'clock this morning the Corcoran Cadets landed safely at home once more and marched to their armory, where they-were dismissed. The last days in camp were eminently a success, Sunday night be- ing a jolly one, and none were allowed to sleep, the first man caught in the act being tossed on the blanket ané given a general lesson of fun in military camp. A large campfire was built upon the briny shore, followed by a war dance—something not seen there since the late bloody war. A ship far out at sea evidently thought that one of her number was the blaze and sent a rocket sky high as a signal, which, of course, failed to. be answered. Secretary Gardner of the Ocean View Company also enjoyed the fun, afterward tendering the boys a feast, which was ap- preciated very much indeed vy the com- rand, The boys were up bright and early Mon- day morning, and the camp resembled a bee- hive, each man being busily engaged pack- ing trunks, chests, &c., after which break- fast.was had, each man also doing justice to himself in this line. At 9.30 each man took his place at his tent, and when the shrill rotes of Corporal Gibson's bugle sounded every tent fell as one, and Camp Jos. W. Anderson was no more. Bathing was then indulged in until dinner, after which the company were marched on the hotel lawn, where they gave their last exhibition drill. Capt. Edwards then made a short speech, | in which he thanked Mr. D. W. Pratt, the |manager of the Ocean View Hotel,’ and | his many assis: their hospitality | shown the boy: the train was boarded and amid much cheering and handshaking, to which the boys responded | by firing a salute, the start was made for Norfolk, where the company was met by | Col.

Vaughn, with a company of volunteers, all of the fourth regiment, Virginia volunteers, led by the naval drum corps, and escorted to their elegant armory, where a banquet | Was tendered the command, followed by a speech by the commander of the escort on | behalf of the Norfolk soldiers and respond- ed to by Capt.

The boys were then shown around the principal parts of the city, visiting the fire depart- ment, jail, court house and some other placcs of interest. At ) a shrill note from Corporal Gibson's bugle called the boys together and they were escorted to the beat, where they were sent off witha wel- come that certainly touched the heart of | every Corecran. Many ladies were also on j — who bade the boys a cheering good bye. | On leaving the View Mr. Royce of Rich- mond, on behalf of the guests of Ocean Vie hishly commented upon the always | gentlemanly eppearance of Capt.

The Guests This Resort and Some of the Amusements, Correspondence of The Evening Star, DEER PARK, July 29, 1894. One of the events of the week of interest was the phantom dance of Thursday night by the guests of the Oakland. It was attended by a dozen couples, arrayed in sheets and pillow cases, with masks of every known design and shade of color. Precisely at 9:30 p.m. the lights in the ball room wete turned out, with the exception of a large green electric globe, suspended from the center, which shed a weird and ghostly glow upon the dancers, appropriate to the occasion. The phantoms entered two by two to the music of the Aanapolis Band, now staying at the hotel, and after a series of solemn circuits of the rocm whirled giddily away, like veri- table nineteenth century mortals, in Von Weber's waltz. At 11 of the clock a general unmasking disclosed the identity of the spirits, Under the supervision of Mr. C. P. McDermott, local manager, the affair went of most successfull; ‘The annual cake walk by the waiters of the hotel came off on Friday evening, under most favorable conditions. The occasion proved par excellence the event of the season, and the number of those participat- ing outranked any previous year. The long ball room of the hotel when chalk-lined for the walk proved all too small to accommo- date the throng of “white folk” who came over from the village and Deer Park for the event. Shortly before 10 o'clock the rcom was cleared of dancers, and a double row of onlockers lined the wall. The open windows and sloping hillside beyond pre- sented an animated picture in white and back, the spectators crowding to catch a view of the scene. The resident musicians, compose] of a portion of the Annapolis Land, stationed within an alcove, struck up an inspiring atr, and the contestants en- tered, some fifteen or twenty in ali, each couple designated by a big white card with corre: ding number upon his or her breast. Solemniy imbued with the import- ence of the occasion, the walkers marched in a dignifiel file round the spaee, only pausing an instant to mark step at the cross corners, while the music Kept up a varied beating of time, rather disconcerting to a steady tread, and the peeple loudly ap- plauded. The bearing of the men and tollets of their ladies were marked by a due regard to the preservation of dignity. A waltz followed, at the close of which the Judges, grouped in the center of the room, announced their decision, and the distribu- tion of the prizes elicited fresh outbursts of applause. There were first, second and third prizes fcr the men and an equal number for their with two booby prizes for the uceful couple. The prizes were a micce, a silk hat, $ in greenbacks, gola dagger pins, &c. Much merriment was | created over the presentation of the booby a long tin oyster horn for the man and a big tee-cold watermelon for the lady. Judce Wilson's big, good-natured-looking coach- a proved the winner of the Lorn and Dr. Goldstcrough’s fat cook carried off the m in triump A huge iced pound ke—a regular “douvle decker”—was borne ms and those failing to win prizes ~ Vited to cut for the buried gold ring. n, second head waiter of the es- tablishment, who has for several succeeding years carried off the first prize, was pro- pounced unanimously to be deserving of the honor, owing to his previous successes in the tie was cut by g®&ing him d, and he is now the happy pos- cr of @ handsome new silk hat.

She was taken to court in the Black Maria with a negress and a white woman, both convicted felons, going to be sentenced. She was kept in the pen waiting for her case to be calied, expored to the impudent gaze of the horde of court room loafers. “When her case was called the court ap- pointed a lawyer to defend her, as she wag penniless. The prosecuting witness and her father told the story of the finding of t missing ring. The presumption that the ae cured had placed it there was more or legs strong until the lawyer began to cross-eg. amine the owner of the ring. Guessing at the truth, by adroit questioning he drew from the unwilling witness the fact that she had often pried into the desk and dressing case drawers of the governess, and ti she had been so engarced an hour or so be- fore she missed her ring, and the further fact that the ring fitted loosely.
