With all the"big crowd on Pennsylvania avenue last evening there was no trouble other than that experienced by the griymen trying to get their cars from one street to another without a fatal accident. The police were on duty, and they preserved the peace as well as they did during the Py- thian parade the day before. So well be- haved was the crowd that the arrests were no more numerous than on ordinary occa- sions, and this morning there were only twenty-one prisoners in the Police Court cells. Several of them were women, and in the lot there were no strangers, end most of them were arrested for offenses not of a serious character. When Judge Taylor ap- peared in court there was a small proces- sion to greet him. Henry Chariton, who had given his name a; William, was the first to appear, and the charge against him was obstructing the en- trance to a house on E street. “He was helplessly drunk last night when I found him,” said Policeman Boyce, “and lying across the entranc? to a hovse.”” ‘I would like to ask the officer a question,” id the prisoner. Vhat is it?” “Was I disorderly in any way?” the pris- oner then asked the officer. “No, sir.” “What was my condition?” “Helplessly drunk.” “Judge, your honor,” sald the prisoner, “I have beea in Baltimore some time, and I just came over yesterday. I did get drunk, but if you will iet me yo, I'll return to Bal- timore.” “Five dollars.” Maria Barrt.es, a colored woman from Van street in South Washington, came next, and she went down for fifteen days in default of fine. An Old Soldier Sent Down. Michael Gleason, a tall man from the Soldiers’ Home, fololwed next in line, an1 the charge against him was vagrancy. He came from the home on a pass and his leave expires today. Michael was very anx- jous about his leave and he feared that a sentence in the workhouse would rob him of his home. According to the statement of Policeman King, Mike, who was under the influence of liquor, went into a drug store and got some soda, for which he refused to pay. He did this a second time, and then the drug- gist made complaint. “I followed him down the avenue,” said the officer, “and saw him ask a number of persons for a cigar.”" The prisoner said that liquor caused him to do what he did, although he had no recoltection of begging. He made an earn- est plea for liberty, but the judge said he thought the District would care for htm for fifteen days. William Arnold and Samuel Green, col- ered men, were too old to go down town and get in the crowd last night, but_they went out as far as 7th and M streets, There they met and stood near a tree to watch the sing crowd. Policeman Laurence- on objected to the men standing there and arrested them on a charge of “obstructing the sidewalk.” The men had made an ef- fort to get out of the way, and the police- man told the court that they were stand- ing near the tree. It was clearly shown that the mén were perfectly sober, and they are hard-working men. “ft have spoken abcut this matter several times,” the judge said, “about persons standing on the sidewalk, and have advised them to stand near the trees and curb- stones, where they cause no obstruction. This case is dismissed.” Didn’t Believe Them. George Johnson and Abner Newman said “Not guilty.” They are young colored men, and lest night they viewed the procession from the street. Not only did they look at the wagons, but their conduct was such as to cause complaint. They were standing near the car track, with sticks, and did their best to pull flags and lanterns from the wagons. “We didn’t have no sticks,” said one of the boys, and the other boy said the same. “And do you want me to believe you?” the judge asked. “Yes, sir.” “Well, I don’t, and you are fined $10 each.” John McCrystal says he lives in George- town. Last night he crossed the creek, in- tending to witness the parade, but he in- dulged in some liquid refreshments, and then hired a cab and started for home. But he got hilarious, and then did not have money to pay his fare. “Can you pay your fare this morning?” the judge asked him. s¥es, sir,” he answered. “How much is “Two dollars,” said the cabman. John wanted to go and get the money, but Pay Faas told him he would have to send for it. Belle Gaines and Norma Cameron, colored residents of the “Division,” were sent down for thirty days each in default of bonds. e Fred Austin was fined $5 for being disor- erly. ‘When Mary Brooks, a colored girl, was called, on a charge of disorderly conduct, Charles Davis, the prosecuting witness, started toward the witness stand to testify, but Mary said “guilty,” and then laughed because she had fooled him. Her conduct in court resulted in her getting forty-eight hours additional. —_- THE BALL AND CONCERT.

This was by the fact that the audi- ence last night was a remarkably good ene, considering the fact that the indus- trial parade outside was a strong counter attraction. Mr. Downing played the part of Damon with his customary force and power and his efforts were greeted with great applause. Mies Eugenie Blair was a beautiful and effective Calanthe, and the supporting compary was fully competent. In obedience to the wishes of many knights who were unable to be present, “Damon and Pythias” will be eee tonight, in- stead of the “The Gladiat Convention Hall.—The ate hour at which the parade closed Tuesday militated against the attendance at all places of amuse- ment Tuesday night. Still there was an au- dierce at Ccnvertion Hall that in any theater would have been considered large, but which looked small in that vast audi- torium. All present enjoyed an excellent ccneert by the United States Marine Band, every number on the program being loudly applauded and many being encored. The band was assisted by Signor Liberati, cor- net soloist, who played with remarkable finish and expression. His numbers were “Souvenir of Switzerland,” which gave an opportunity to aisplay his wonderful tech- nique, and the solo in the “Inflam from Rossini’s “Stabat Mater,” which pre- sented full and sustained tones of power and sweetness. He is thoroughly artistic in all his work and fully deserved the en- tote applause with which he was ‘The concert will be repeated to- Signe with a complete change of program. The Passing Show.—Beginning on Mon- day evening next at Albaugh’s Grand Opera House, Canary & Lederer’s supreme production, “The Passing Show," will be seen for one week. The organization comes direct from a long run at the New York Casino, and is compoeed of over 100 people. The play is built upon lines calculated to amuse and not to tire one, and consists of material which is utilized to good advan- tage for humorous purposes. It is modeled to a great extent to resemble the yearly Parisian revue, in which the popular suc- cesses of the season are imitated and bur- lesqued. But “The Passing Show” differs in its construction and presentation from the ‘foreign conception very materially, as it not only presents travesties on the popu- lar successes, but embellishes the action with hor ores original music, a large chorus and ballet, and last, but not least, a m tiplicity of clever specialty acts. The a . thors and managers of “The Passing Show’ have succeeded in furnishing an entertain- ment which is calculated to amuse. One of the many n features incorporated is the ballet of “L’Enfant Prodigue,” in which four Phrynettes and Pierrots who partici- pate in the dance are especially conspicu- ous for the particularly novel design of their costumes, which for uniqueness of style and handsomeness of material have never been equaled. The cast includes Jno. E. Henshaw, Charles J. Ross (late Ross & Fenton), George A. Schiller, Gus Pixley, William Cameren, Harry Standish, Sey- mour Hess, Lucy Daly, Jessie Carlisle, Katharine B. Howe, Mabel Stephenson, Madge Lessing, Sylvia Thorne, Maude Daul- ton, Venie Burroughs and otners. The City Club Burlesque Co.—Manager Kernan’s attraction for next week will be The City Club Big Burlesque and Specialty Co. Manager Miaco this season has se- cured a number of European and Ameri- can artists of exceptional merit. The bur- lesque is new, novel and catchy. It abounds in witty sayings, new music and dances. It has been entitled The Old Homestead. Liv- ing Pictures have become a craze through- out the country, and the City Club Com- pany next week will astonish the patrons ef the Lyceum by presenting a new and original series of pictures. The specialty portion of the program will be in line with the originality displayed in the balance of the performance. Among the members of this big organization are such well-known people as Fannie Everett, the queen of bur- lesque; Carrie Fulton, Ruby Marion, Nellie Hanley, Lillian Nelson, Allie Atherton, Edith Worth, Annie Peters, Lillie Wilson, May Johnson, Marie Davis, Harry Bryant, Jas. Lowry, Tom Nolan, Chas. Bryant, Gus Saville, Al. Mansfield, Arthur Wilson and Edward Cook.

Carnahan and members ef his staff an in- vitation to visit Mount’ Vernon on the steamer Macalester. ‘The invitation is also extended to includesthe gentlemen com- posing the several citizens’ committees who have been engaged fer weeks in preparing for the reception of the sir knights. General Carnahan has accepted. Colonel McKibbin’s invitation, and determined to avail himself of the courtesy on Saturday afternoon at 2 o’clock. Col. McKibbin said today that he did not think that the visit to Washington of the Knights would be complete without a trip to Mt. Vernon, and he had determined that Gen. Carnahan and the officials should have an opportunity of standing by the tomb of the father of his country. His plan is to issue about 200 invitations, and these will probably represent double that number of individuals. If, aa is now prob- able, the excursion shall take place on Sat- urday afternoon, the trip will be an ex- cesdingly pleasant one, for Col. McKibbin is one of the most royal of hosts and he will do all in his power to promote the comfort and enjoyment of his guests. —__~—_—_ ABOUT GEORGETOWN.

A Proposed Regufatéon Concern! Elevators in Unfiaished Structure Mr. S, T. Thomas, attorney for the Dis- trict, has forwarded te the Commissioners a draft of an amendment to the building regu- lations, regulating elevators in buildings in Process of construction. The new regula- tion Was suggested by sa.communication to the Commissioners from Joseph K. Potter, secretary of the Federation of Labor of the District of Columbia, requesting them to enforce the laws regulating elevators in buildings in course of erection. Mr. Thomas has drafted the following amendment, which he thinks will meet the case. and re- guests that it be added to the orders of the Commissioners, as that is the most appro- priate place for it: ‘That in all buildings in the District of Columbia in course of con- struction it shall be unlawful to use hoists or ele’ rs for hoisting building material, &c., in any such building or buildings, un- j.less the well holes or openings for such elevaters or hoists on each and every flocr of the building shall be closed with tempor- ary guard ralls composed of boards placed six inches apart to a height of five feet, with a gate or door swinging outward, and such other fafety appliances as the in- spector of buildings may determine to be necessary for the protection of life and limb.” Distress in the Stomach “I bad trouble with my stomach for a long time and could not anything that would do me any good.
