The death of Past Supreme Chancellor Shaw prevented the members of the Supreme Lodge from enjoying the oc- casion, but their absence, though regretted, did not detract from the success of the en- tertainment.

Edmund Collier Claims That Robert Downing Owes Him $1,980. Robert Downing, the actor, has been made the defendant in a suit filed by Edmund Collier, also a member of the dramatic pro- fession, who «laims $1,980, The plaintiff alleges that on the 11th of July of last year an agreement was entered into between him and the defendant, under which he was to erter Mr.eDowning’s company on the 4th of the following September. It was pro- vided that shculd the company be on the road twenty-five weeks Mr. Collier would receive $150 a week salary, and should it be on the road thirty-five weeks he would receive but $125 a week. A repertoire of plays was sent him, says the plaintiff, Mr. Downing writing that if he should see an article going the rounds to the effect that he (Collier) was receiving the largest salary paid in America, he should not deny it. Meeting the company at Hampton, Va., the plaintiff says that he went out with them, and, at Canton, Ohio, about six weeks later, consented to a modification of the agree- ment, by which he subsequently received but $110 instead of $150, Mr. Collier asserts that all went well until the 5th of the fol- lowing February, when there was a suspen- sion, and he explains that the suit is brought to recover the amount due him for the remainder of the season. ——— $1.25 to Baltimore a Return on all B. and O.

Third Auditor Samuel Black- well presided, Dr J. W. Murphy acting as secretary. General Manager Colquitt of Georgia explained that he was unable to Present a complete program, owing to the fact that responses aad not yet been re- cetved from all of those invited to-address the convention. Where there was a failure of an invited speaker to report, some one fully competent to take his place would be called upon. These substitutes had already been provided for, and, therefore, there would be no hitch in the program. Mr. Colquitt stated that among those who would attend and speak were Prof. Vinzenheller of Arkansas, Prof. D. T. Day of the United States geological survey, Col. Albert. Avery of Georgia, Col. Robert M. Douglas of North Carolina and Richard P. Clark of Alabama. Invitations had also been extended to Col. Essex and John M. Gracey of Arkansas, Capt: Edward Graham, ex-mayor of Mobile.

Quander, a colored man who pays the District $400 a year for the privilege of selling liquor in a little shanty on the com- mons not far from the jail and work house, was a prisoner in the Police Court today on a charge of assault. When Policeman Anderson arrested him at his saloon this morning he had been told that the saloon keeper's victim was dead. Investigation, however, showed that while his victim,- Tobe Perry, was painfully injured and was confined in the hospital, he will recover in a few days. Tobe has been in the habit of visiting the saloon and doing chores for liquor. He went to the saloon early last evening and called for a drink, but the proprietor hes- itated because he was not certain that Tobe had any money, “Yes, I have got the money,” said Tobe. “Give me the lHquor.” The liquo: put on the bar, and then Tobe said I've got the whisky, and —-— if I'm going to pay you.” The saloon keeper then clubbed him over the head, so it is charged. Tobe’s head is painfully cut, and he will have to remain in the hospital several days. Bond in the sum of $500 was given fer the appearance of Quander, and he was released. ——— Goo@ Templars, On Monday evening Washington Lodge, No. 4, held a large and enthusiastic session in their rooms, corner of 4 1-2 and Pennsyl- vania avenue, nearly ail the members of the lodge ard thirty-five visiting members of the order, beimg present, among whom were Knights of’ Pythias from Boston, Massachusetts, Lynchburg, Va., and also visitors from other distant cities.
