A Crimi Comes Back a Gives Imself Up—He Saw a Sheriff Shoot at a Mark. There was a highway robbery of the dime-novel style last night on the Aqueduct bridge. The lawless participants were John “Red Bil,” and James Bun- is the most noted desperado in these parts. He has run through nearly every crime in the criminal category but murder. He has been arrested in all sec- tions of the District, and has served terms in all classes of prisens, from the ot lock-up to the penitentt Bundy is one of his “side partners,” and in consequence also has a record. At 11:30 o'clock last night these men sta- tioned themselves on the bridge near the Virginia end, with both drawn pistols and clubs. When William Jones and Frank Tkcemas, two colered men, came along they were commanded to halt and throw up their hands. They disregarded the com- mand at first, but were brought to a reall- zation of the earnestness ot it when the highwaymen came up close to them, and in a threatening manner ran the end of the pistols’ cold barrels up into their faces. Thoroughly frightened then, they remained passive and allowed their pockets to be turned out. The highwaymen were but pcorly rewarded for their daring act, as but 2.25 was found on Jones and but some small change on Thomas. The case was clear a one of highway robbery, though, as if a thousand dollars had been taken. Jones is a waiter in a Water street restau- rant and Thomas is employed in a Wash- irgton eating house. The men ceme back to Georgetown at once and reported the affair to the police. Nelson Robertson, a coal-heaver for the Meredith, Winship Company, complained a little later that he had been held up just previous to the double robbery, though the highwaymen had secured nothing. At 2 o'clock this morning, after the of- ficers of the fore part of the night had un- successfully attempted to find the men, Sergt. Haney @etatled Officers Trussell and Birkight to work on the case. After some searching the men were located in a culvert near the causeway connecting the mainland with Analestan Island. They were in the company of several women. Their arrest followed. Jackson is a small, muscularly- built yellow fellow, and ts looked upon with awe by the colored people. His age is about twenty-eight. He has never done legitimate labor, but has posed vlways as a man to be feared. The greater part of his life, since twelve years of age, has been spent in prison. His parents are very reputable. Gave Himself Cp. Albert Fletcher, the young negro who attempted to shoot Mr. Richard Mann on Saturday afternoon, because he had been discharged from his employ, gave himself up yesterday to the police. Inmediately after having tried to seek the life of his former employer and on the epproach of Policeman Berryman he fied toward the southern end of the town, where he finally succeeded in eluding his pursuers by making his way through old, unoccu- pled houses and unfrequented alleys. When night fell he made his way to Rockville, where once before he sought refuge after having severely hacked a companion with a knife. The next day, according to his own story, he .was going along a road when he saw a sheriff practicing with his pistol. A small coin was fixed upon .a fence and aimed at. Every time it was struck. The aim of the man was so perfect that the boy realizing the danger he would be in if he lingered around “Kockville;' was found out and attempted to escape, came quietly back to Georgetown and gate himself up. He went with Officer Bradley to “Cherry Hill,” between 32d, Potomac, Water and Grace, and pointed to the pistol he had used lying in a pile of rock: It proved to be a thirty-eight-caliber wea- pon and contained still several loaded cart- ridges. Fletcher has been engaged in many unlawful affairs during his short life. He is about twenty-one years of age. Real Estate. John T. Marcey, Laura 8. Cruit et vir. Richard S., Emma Reynolds et vir.

It com- bines every element of success, the plot is strong and the story interesting, while the mounting {is on a scale elaborate and beautiful. The cast is made up of over twenty speaking characters, all being strong end effective.

Kernan’s Lyceum Theater.—The attrac- tion at the Lyceum next week will be Al- bin!’s London Empire Entertainers—a truly high-class vaudeville organization, com- posed of Europe and America’s brightest stars. Manager Albini has brought direct from Berlin, Germany, Charles Unthan, the armiess wonder of the world. He performs on many musical instruments with his feet.

She recently gave an entertainment for the benefit. of the World's sick baby fund, which netted a handsome sum. On this’ occasion Mt Vockey read the letter scene from “Ma beth,"" several scenes from “As You Like It,” the curse scene from “Leah” and other Selections, in all of which she was very effective, and her efforts elicited much Entertainment. The three nights’ entertainment and camptire cn the grounds about Dr. Jame- son's residence in Mount Pleasant closed last evening. The success of the affair has been gratifying, both in a social and finan- cial way.

A campfire repre- senting scenes of army life was the feature of the entertainment last evening, the G. A. R. Musical Union rendering a number of patriotic songs. Thomas Shea,Prof.Poesche and Hub T.

The Union Veterans’ Union is an organi- zation of battlefield soldiers, no one being allowed to join the order who during his army service was not at least six months at the front. The order has grown quite rapidly in some of states, particularly in Ohio and in New d, and now con- tains some of the most prominent of the ex-Union soldiers. Last year its naitonal encampment was held in this city at the same time as that of the Grand Army of the Republic, for most of the members of the Union Veterans’ Union are also con- nected with the G. A. R. This year the encampment will be held at Rochester, N. Y., on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday of next week. The delega- tion to go from this city will not be large, for the Department of the Potomac has not increased In membership as rapidly as some other departments. It is claimed by officers of the order that the present condition of things in this city is not favorable to the joining of ex-Union soldier organizations, and that for that reason recruits do not come in; but they assert that before the next presidential election there will be plenty of men eager to identify themselves with some reputable soldier order. The dele- gation from here will leave for Rochester on the 7:30 a.m. train next Monday over the Pennsylvania railroad. The round-trip fare has been fixed at $10.48, ——_ A Pleasant Surprise.

The jewel is of pure gold, blue enameled, and is a@ beautiful and artistic piece of workman- ship. On one side is a crown with the let- ters V. M. G., 1105, and on the other side sppears the following: “Presented to Fred. Rogerson by joint commitiee Royal Arca- num, celebration for valuable services, August 16, 1894. The presentation was re- spended to by Mr. Rogerson in a very neat little speach, evincing much feeling and appreciation of the honor bestowed up- on him. Mr. Regerson has been a mem- ber of Oriental Council, R. A., for about three years, and has always been ready to respond to the call of duty, and do every- thing in his power to promote the interests and welfare of the council, which on this cccasion hes so kindly remembered him. A delightful collation was served, and a mest enjoyable evening spent, long to be remembered by those who had the pleasure of participating in it. —_—_.__. Marine Band Concert.

The fact that Waiter had been convicted once before or the charge of larceny and had a bad Teputation, anyhow, had its effect with the Judge in imposing the sentence, for he sent the boy to jail for a couple of months. —— Released on Ball.

Trouser: The Police Court has decided an important question, though the decision ts likely to prove unsatisfactory to a good many peo- ple. In an information made out in the case of a colored man who was charged with larceny this morning use was made of the term “a pair of pants’—not trousers, breeches nor even pantaioons. ‘The defendant in the case was Max Abra- ham, who, notwithstanding his name, is a big, burly colored man, darker than the unmentionables which he was charged with having stolen. The owner of the aforesaid “pants” swore that they cost him $5, which weakened the force of the accepted defini- tion that pants are trousers that cost $3 or less, while trousers are pants that cost more than $8. The charge against Max was dismissed by Judge Mills. It was hoped by some of the people in the audience that the judge, who is a careful man in matters of dress, had taken this action on account of the defect in the information contained in the descrip- tion of the stolén property. Unfortunately for the “trouser element,” however, the case was dismissed solely because there was not evidence to bring about a conviction. la Saturday and Sunday Excursions to Baltimore, The Baltimore and Ohio R.R.

Moore and Officer Helan for having a gallon catsup jug full of whisky. They gave a number of unsatisfactory explanations, or rather Gerland did, for there was very little to ccnnect Jackson with the case beyond one of Garland’s various confessions, An investigation by the police discovered the fact that the jug had been stolen from the store rogm of the ifotel Johnson, ana the whisky drawn from a barrel in the cel- jar of the same hostelry by m-ans of a rub- ber tube. The liquor was being saved by Garland for a big colored picaic down the river next week. When the case was tried in the Police Court this morning there was every reason to think that Garland was guilty, but there was nothing against Jackson, a well-dressed end rather decent-looking young colored boy, and Judge Mills let him go without any suspicion of guilt attaching to him. Garland’s offense, howéver, was aggravated by his efforts to implicate an innocent com- pani and he was sent to jail for sixty days without the option of paying a fine. —_——.__—_.
