ALEXANDRIA AFFAIRS Personal, Local and General Notes of Inter- est to All A Little Girl Burned in a Lamp Acci- dent—Base Ball Games Being Arranged. Dr. Lawrence Stabler has returned from the Sweet Chalybeate Springs. His family will return the first of September. Mr. Louis Green, who has been on a visit to friends in Charlottesville, has returned to his home in this city. A large crowd of’'Alexandrians went to River View last night @n the excursion of the Marine Engineers’ Association. The markets this, morning were fairly well attended by country folk, and produce was plentiful. Prices were a little higher than last Saturday. There will be the usual services in the various churches tomorrow. Hite Peckham, the. Alexandria lightweight who is out in a challenge to meet any one hundred and thirty-eight-pound man in America, is expected to return to this city on the first of September. While away he has .arranged for matches with several prominent men throughout the north, and the coming boxing season in this city will be particularly interesting. A good many Alexandrians who have been summering at Colonial Beach have re- turned to their homes in this city. The regular weekly meeting of Potomac Tent, No. 39, Independent Order of Recha- bites, was held last night. Five applications for membership were received and several candidates were initiated into the mysterics of the order. A poem by Wat Langley, a recitation by Will Brawner und speeches by George Stearns, B. R. Foley, A. J. Davis and L. D. Devaughn enlivened the gather- ing. This tent will give a grand fair the latter part of September. Mr. Rhoda Finks shot a Jog in West End yesterday afternoon, which was suppcsed tu have been mad. The animal created a great deal of excitement as it ran through the village. It is caid to have bitten two other dogs and a small colored child. The Robert Portner Brewing Company are having another large water tank placed on the top of thei: brewery in this city, so as to increase the water supply. The tank, when completed, will bold 600 gallons and can be pumped full every seven minutes. Notwithstanding the hard times of the past few months the business of the brewery has held its own and another season will see ee additions to this already mammoth plant. Miss Minnie Brengle, who was so badly burned on Thursday by the explosion of a lamp, as mentioned in The Star, and her mother, who was paralyzed by the shock, are very much improved today, and it Is now thought that both are out of danger. The narrow escape of Miss Brengle is con- sidered miraculous. Miss Leo Walsh of Burgundy is on a visit to friends in Washington. The Fredericksburg base ball team will come to this city on Monday, and play the return games with the Old Dominions at New Alexandria on Monday and Tuesday afternoons. These teams are well matched, and two good games’ may be expected. Manager MocClearen’s pets are in shape, and are sald to be the best nine got- ten together in this city for several years. They have won a majority of the games played this season, and have crossed bats with some of the best teams in this vicin- ity. O’Brien and Beach will be the battery for the home team in Mon@ay’s game. It has not been decided who will do the twirl- ing in the game on Tuesday. About 8 o'clock last night the little ten- year-old daughter of Mr. Charles Foley was quite badly burned at his home on South Washington street. It seems that the little girl was playing with a Japanese lantern, when she dropped it in a trunk, setting fire to the contents. In her endeavors to ex- tinguish the fire her clothing caught. Her cries attracted the attention of two gentle- men, who were passing, and they succeeded in putting out the flames before the fire had done her a serious damage. The funeral of the late Eugene Sisson took place front St. Mary's Church yester- day afternoon and was attended by a large number of his young friends. Rev. Father Cutler conducted the services. The case of abduction and seduction’ against Henry Simmons, which was tried in the mayor's court last night, was dismissed. Mr.John Sutton swore out a warrant against Simmons, charging him with having ab- ducted his (Sutton’s) daughter)for immoral purpoees. The charges cotld not be sub- stantlated, however. It seems that Sutton’s ughter disappeared fram home about the time that Sisson sailed down the river, and Sutton thought they had gone together, but it could not be shown that such was the case. ! The police authorities hmve been requested to be on the lookout fora horse and buggy, stolen from Eugene Sprigelior at Frederick, Owing to the fact that the steamer Co- lumbia of the ferry line was laid up yester- day no_ teams could be*sent to W: hing- ton by that line, but had to be driven over the road. This line now has but one boat that can carry teams and when that boat is laid off it is a great inconvenience to the patrons. Dr. Bedford Brown has gone to Atlantic City. . Frank Curtin and Dainger- field Brooks are spending ten days at At- lantie City. Mrs. Marion Chalkley of Richmond is visiting her mother, Mrs. B. F. Brice, on Columbus street. —_—_~—_— A JURY DRAWN.

War Department Guards Enjoying the Sea Breeses. of The Evening Star. WAR DEPARTMENT GUARDS’ CAMP, 7 August 24, 1804. There was no rifle practice by the ‘War Department Guards this morning, as Capt: Wilson, Lieut. Fairly and Sergt. Maj. Watson were surveying the 500 and 600- yard ranges. This work was somewhat tedious on account of the heat, but was done in as short time as possible. The company is now engaged on these ranges and thus far the scores are very satisfac- tory. Quite a delegation from amorg the mem- ber of the company ure on leave of absence, spending the day at Atlantic City, where many of the boys have friends sojourning for the summer. Capt. Barker and Sergi. Symons went to Cape Mey, aud were in high spirits over the jolly time they expected to have. Still another party under the very able lead>rship of Corporal Smyth and ex-First Sergt. Clark took the 7 o'clock train for the inlet, where a boat had been engaged for a fishing expedition. The boys remain- ing in camp can only hope Messrs. Clark and Smyth and their party will return with . ee” for the “colonel,” our genial 108 For a wonder the command was slimly represented at the dance last night, but those who were there enjoyed a hearty welcome. The girls were’ there in force, and of course brass buttons did the rest. The company has about decided to start heme Sunday night, reaching there Monday morning, though under the provisions of ie order a longer stay would be permiss- able. Most of the guardsmen zemaining in camp today took advantage of the delightful con- dition of the surf this morning and en- joyed a bath in the breakers of the great Atlantic. “Old Glory” is again at the mast and no misplacement of the ropes and pulley oc- curred when she was raised this morning, as some were inclined to anticipate. Drills on the beach were inaugurated last evening, and, notwithstanding the heavi- ness of the sand in some places, they will be continued. The principal reason for this lies in the fact that the commanding gen- eral of the Jersey “skeeters” army keeps a stronger line everywhere than on the sandy slope of the water's edge. The command of the company was turn- ed over to Lieut. Fairly during the drill yesterday, and Capt. Wilson’s popular right- hand man showed great skill in handling = men. ring the march, Acting First Sergt. Feaster distinguished himself by the step with which he led the campward march. The men unanimously agree that the tall sergeant is a “hustler from Hustlersville.” Mr. Harper displayed his ability to do police duty yesterday, so much so, indeed, that some of his comrades have been so cruelly unkind as to suggest that he se- cure an able-bodied assistant from the out- elde to help him twine the laurels "bout hi Stately brow. At ary rate, the duty wa: well done. Everything is dull around the canvas vil- lage today on account of the few remain- ing at home, and the boys were for the most part indulging in peaceful “naps.” ——__ RESOURCES OF THE SOUTH. Representative Men From That Sec- tion Grow Eloquent on the Subject. There was another meeting of the con- fererce committee of resident southern men at Willa:d’s Hotel last evening, called for the purpose of mating arrangements for the holding here next week of a south- ern development convention. Quite a large number were present, and, as on the pre- vious evening, there was a general exchange of views respecting the resources of the different states of the south. In fact, a de- tailing of those resources by representatives from the respective states was really the only business done at the meeting. Third Auditor Samuel Blackwell of Ala- tama, the president of the association, pre- ided and pictured the resources of his state. The climate, he said, was unsur- passed, and its society ranks second to no other state. The’ commercial and manufac- turing interests of the state were equal to — of any a —_ if not in excess of Le of the coal tnd: > Mr. Blackwell said that the Warrior coal ‘clas contain not less than 108,394,000,000 tons of available coal. This coal, it was said, would be worth at the mouth of the mines $150,000,000,000, or about one thousand times as much as the whole property of Alabama was worth in 1880. The field contains about three-fourths as much coal as all Europe. The iron interests, explained Mr. Black- well, were on the same immense scale, and in Alabama the iron ore, the coal and the Mmestone necessary to the manufacture of iron have been laid over against each other by nature. The timber ‘resources of the state were about inexhaustible. Mr. E. L. Berry described the resources of Arkansas, referring principally to the taineral resources. The zinc, he said, was found in large quantities at the very roots of the grass, and he expected that it would eventually become a great resource of reve- nue. Cotton of a superior quality was grown in Arkansas, and great forests of timber adaptable to ali kinds of manu- facture were found in the northwestern portion of the state. The mineral springs of the state were known the world over for their famous medicinal qualities. Mr. Frank Thenholm spoke of the rice crop of South Carolina, which, he said, was a great source of revenue. The sturgeon fishery is rapidly becoming a great industry. Mr. A. D. Anderson responded on behalf of the District of Columbia. The District had very few natural resources, but it had a gold mine not a thousand miles from the treasury, which put it on a par with other sections of the country in int of attrac- tions. The resources of North Carolina were pictured by Mr. G. W. Sanderlin, who stated that the state was so full of in- exhaustible and natural resources it was simply impossible to filly describe it. The most practicable speech"of the even- tng was made by Mr. Claude Bennett of the Interior Department. He spoke of the versified industries in Georgia. He sald that in southern Georgia one man a few years ago made a peach crop whose gro: receipt was $65,000 and that the Georgia peach was quoted in New York like stocks and bonds. He referred to the Georgia water melcn, noted throughout the Union, and stated that many small fortunes had been made in southern Georgia on peaches and water melons and in other truck farm- ing. He showed that in general agricultural products the state ranked high; that Georgia produces much more cotton every year than she can sell at decent rates; that many cotton mills in several cities of the state produce enormous outputs; that none of them failed during the recent panic. when spindles in nearly every section of the Union were stopped; that the water power of the state is sufficient to manufac- ture into cloth, within a few miles of the place of production, every pound of cotton in the state. He stated that in a short Cistance of Atlanta there were inexhausti- ble mountains of granite; that public butld- ings in Cincinnati and several other north- ern cities are built out of this granite, and that Georgia granite is now being shipped all over the Union. He stated that in northern Georgia there are vast quantities of marble of every color of the rainbow and of hardness and fineness of finish un- excelled by the best products of the famous Carrara mines. He briefly referred to Georgia's other minerals, showing that the hills of the state contain nearly every min- eral except silver, drawing the conclusion that whether the investor wishes to engage in any kind of agricultural project or in any kind of manufacture. in any kind of mining, he can get in Georgia exactly what he warts. Other members of the committee briefly spoke, and after an informal discussion of plans for the coming convention, the meet- ing adjourned te meet next Tuesday even- ing at 7:30 at the same place. Ror Sse THE DRYDEN MANDAMUS. Cole Will Give His Decision Next Monday. . Judge Cole stated to a Star reporter that he would give his decision in the case of Lyttleton T. Dryden against the Secretary of the Treasury at 10 o'clock next Monday morning. The case, as heretofore stated in The Star, is an application of Mr. Dryden for a writ of mandamus compelling Secre- tary Carlisle to re.nstate him to the position of shipping commissioner of the port of Baltimore, Md. Mr. Dryden compleined that he had been removed without cause, simply to n.ake rcom for the appointment of a democrat; a course, he contended, con- trary to law. Judge ——— Gov.

To the Editor of The Evening Star: I have always had a grudge against peo- ple who parade their complaints in the col- umns of The Star, wondering that you made room for the “croakers,” as I dubbed them, but I find the surest way to call at- tention to a fact is to put it where all may see, therefore I selected your paper. I am a stranger in a strange land, so I expect my words to be more forcible. Your city I find charming in almost every respect; es- pecially do I admire the courtesy with which any information is extended by old and young, rich end poor; but my one chief objection lies just where a woman generally desires to find pleasure unalloyed, viz, in the attractive stores of a large city. Now I know the Washingtonians are not only “up to date,” but way past it with regard to all modern conveniences, newest inventions, &c., but for the life of me I cannot tell why your stores 1d ornamented with wooden figures instead of real live employes, Let me tell you how green I was. I wanted some lace, and going to the counter I ex- amined the quality of a pretty piece. Look- ing up to the figure before me I sweetly asked: “What is the price of this?” The black eyes stared blankly at my hat, the rosebud mouth moved not a muscle—nothing indicated life. “Pardon,” I repeated; “what is the price of this?” but, to my astonish- ment, no answer. I passed out, thinking it queer to employ a mute. Several squares iurtber I entered another well-known es- tablishmeat, and again I stopped at a iace counter; picking up a piece, 1 inquired of the ultra-looking person behird the counter: “How do you sell this?” thinking “What is the price of this?” might in this advanced town be an untransiatable idiom, Imagine my bewilderment when the figure suddenly jerked its jeweled fingers up and down the counter as if on a piano, and, tossing its little head (with hair parted) from side to side, sweetly and with spright- liness hummed the gay “Liberty Bell,” but with that monotonous wound-up manner which indicates Mrs. Jarley’s wax works. In sore perplexity I gave up the lace, and in a state of uncertainty approached an object strongly resembling a man and timidly inquired for a certain article, but hardly had I uttered the lest syllable than a button must have been pressed, for out came tumbling this remarkable sentence in a weird monotone: “Nodressgoodsthirdfloor- taketheelevator. But did 1? No, I fied, vowing that I would make one more at- tempt, and if I found another automaton I would wait on myself, and that most liberally. After a brisk walk—almost a run—I found myself in another large and popular store. When I recovered sufficient breath I cautiously advanced to the counter and inquired if I could get a handkerchief. A neatly dressed person, with gentle voice, responded: “Oh, yes, here is a pretty one, and this is @ very fine one. So you will take this? very well, here is your change; thank you,” and then I rode home 1d went to bed; this last proved too great a shock. My friends insist that the figures (except the last mentioned) were in reality wooden figures, and were invented merely to amuse customers, but I will confide in you what they will learn only from this communication, {. e., I have since observed that when some gentlemen came to those same figures to be waited upon the blank stare became a tender glance, the rigid lips curved and dimpled with each caressing re- ply. In fine, I concluded that those same were figures of the most laudable dis- crimination. Can it be that it is customary to “tip” the store ladies? Then I welcome “free trade,” for it will surely correct this N. T. abuse. THE COURTS. Equity Court—Judge Cok Adriaans agt. Lyons; time to take testi- mony limited. Slater agt.
