The entertainment committee of the Co- lumbia Athletic Club has arranged for a sparring exhibition to be given at the club house on @ street near 18th street on Thursday evening, the 22d instant. It is said that the exhibition ts glven to meet the growing demand among admirers of athletics for first-class sparring bouts, with respectable surroundings.

TO EXTEND THE SCIENCES. A Bequest of Magnitude for the Smithsonian stitute. By the provisions of the will of the late Robert Stanton Avery, dated July 22, 1593, and filed here, the Smithsonian Institution is made residuary legatee of an estate es- timated to be worth from fifty to one hun- dred thousand dollars. ‘The deceased was a native of Connecticut, being born near Norwich in 1808. He was a graduate of Harvard, and for many years was chief of the tidal division of the coast survey office, resigning in 1885. He lived at 320 A street southeast, where he died the latter part of last September. The deceased appoir.ts his niece, Julia N. Avery, executrix of the estate, and in recognition of her care of him bequeeths her 32,000, and interest on $2,000 worth of bonds. Between the children of his brothers Isaac and Ulysses he gives $400, respectively, and to his sister Sarah and his brothers John and Erasmus he zives $400 each. The testator directs that $1,000 shall be equally divided between the sister and brothers of his deceased wife, and says: “These bequests are all made upon condi- tion that the legatees acquiesce in this will, and I hereby bequeath the share or shares of any disputing this will to the residuary legatee hereinafter named.” The deceased then directs that the re- mainder of the estate shall go to the Smith- sonian Institution and its successors for- ever, explaining that, as he had always a love for the sciences, and having most of his property while toiling in humble ca. pacities to extend and diffuse knowledge, he had concluded that that gift could best express his interest in sctence. He then expresses the desire that the income from the fund be applied to promoting publica- tions relating to phonetic type and print- ing. He also desires that part of the ‘n- come shall be applied to the publication of lectures and treatises upon and con- cerning those mechanical laws governing an ethereal medium. He suggests chat prizes might be given for essays on the phenomena of electricity, magnetism and light and heat. He also suggests that the fund shall be called “The Avery fund,” or “The fund contributed by Robert S. Avery and his wife, Lydia T. Avery, for the ex- tension of the science: ——_— LOCATION UNSUITABLE. Report of the Superintendent of the Municipal Lodging House. ‘The annual report of the superintendent of the municipal lodging house was sub- mitted to the Commissioners today. His report opens by calling attention to the need of a more suitable location for the lodging house, and says: “The experience of the past winter con- vinced me that a more unsuitable location for successfully carrying out the object for which this institution was established could searcely be found, and I beg to re- new my recommendation, and urge that the matter of a change of location be con- sidered upon and decided at the earllest moment consistent with the present finan- cial depression. “The house is cut up Into twenty-one rooms and six hallways; the ceilings low and the rooms dark, so much so as to require the lighting of gas by day. The only ventilation ts by way of windows, many of which open into narrow passage- | ways between this and adjoining build- ings. In these small and poorly ventilated ooms beds are crowded so closely together as to compel occupants to crawl from one to another In the matter of ingress or egress. It will be apparent to you that if the dormitory consisted of one large well-lighted, well-ventilated and cheery room, where a single attendant could, at a glance, see all the occupants it would be a decided improvement In many ways. An urgent necessity also exists for a more commodious room where the men can sit after their work has been done. The present one {s a small, dark, poorly ven- tilated, and used for dining purposes, and has a’ capacity for but fifteen persons. The wood yard also is a narrow and con- | tracted arrangement. By packing the men {as closely as possible about eighteen can work at one time, whereas the working capacity of the yard should be sufficient to accommodate at least fifty men. The stor- age capacity for wood is also limited, Twelve cords of sawed and split wood will block us completely up, and further | work must be suspended until the wood | Is removed. If the wood yard attached to | this institution had a capacity for storing | sixty cords I would guarantee to furnish | the District government with all the sawed and split wood it would require.

David Edmonds Seriously Injured by a Special Watchm Charles C. Herbert, a special watchman In the employ of the farmers who occupy the south side of B street, opposite the Center Market, shot a colored boy named David Edmonds, living #n Grant avenue, at about 9 o'clock this thorning. Edmonds, who is about eightedy years old, was taken to the Emergency Hospital, where his wound was examined. It is thought that the ball, which entered the left shoulder near the collar bone, did not make any serious injury in its passage, though a blood vessel may have been grazed, in which case it is Mable to give way later and so cause death. Accounts as to the coer vary some- what. Edmonds said to a Star reporter, through Dr. Beall, the house surgeon at the hospital, that another boy, named Shankey, made for him with a brick, threatening to hit him. He and Shankey had had some difficulty over some of Edmonds’ language, directed at Shankey, which hurt the lat- ter’s feelings. So Edmonds ran away, and was getting out of trouble as fast as he could. He ran, however, straight into the arms, or rather arm, for he bas but one, of Watchman Herbert, who had a pistol in his one hand. Herbert made a grab for the boy’s collar and the pistol went off. The watchman, who lives at 121 B street northeast, was taken to the 12th street station house, and from his cell he told the reporter his version of the affair. He aks in a slight German accent. heard some one cry cut,” he said, ‘from where I stood on the south side of B street, end lookirg over I saw this boy running as fast as he could toward me, with a great crowd after bim. People were yelling ‘Stop thief! and I supposed that the bov hed stolen something. I did not see any other boy behind him with a brick or anything of the kind. As he came toward me I saw a knife in his right hand, with the blade opered and pointed behind him. The crowd kept yelling, and I pulled my pistol, and whe. the hoy came up I ran out after him and grabbed at his coat collar. Just then the pistol went off, and ths bey was shot in the Réck. 1 did not mean to I was not sure he had done anything. T have but cne arm, as you se, and so I had to grab for the boy with the hand that held the pistol. I have been in the employ of the market farmers abcut three years, and I have never had any trouble like this be- fore. I have not sent for a lawyer.” At the market the.jeople who saw the shooting think that the watchman had no intenticn to shoot, but that he fired ac- eldentally In the rush. The boy has been seen around the market for some time. “Shankey” could not be found. ——_ H OF THE DISTRICT, —- A Material Decrease in the Number of Deaths Last Week. According to the reports received at the health department there was a material decrease in the number of deaths last week, as cc™pared with the previous re- port. There was a decrease of over 27 per cent, and the death rate fell from 22.8 to 16.8 Sickness among young children ap- peared to be at a minimum, while brain, heart and lung maladies were less than during the several weeks past. There were four new cases of diphtheria and two of scarlet fever reported, with one death from the latter. The dangerous contagious diseases, with the exception of smallpox, present no disposition to assume epidemic form. The few cases of smallpox now un- der treatment are receiving every possible attention, both to their cure and isolation, and nothing that science or human exper ence can suggest is being omitted to con- fine this disease to narrow limits and finally extinguish it. Otherwise, the general health HES of the city is in good condition, as indi- cated by the very low death rate.

A Ciroular Inviting Bids for §$50,000,- 000 5 Per Cent Ten-Year Bonds. As predicted in The Star, Secretary Car- isle, late yesterday afternoon, issued a circular inviting subscriptions for $50,000,- 000 5 per cent ten-year bonds, interest to be paid in coin, which is interpreted to mean gold. The only material changes made in the present call from that issued Januar? 14 last are the omission of the up- set or minimum price which would be ac- cepted and the notice that the proposals for the present issue must be sealed. It is confidently expected at the Treasury De- partment that an amount of gold will be realized considerably in excess of that re- ceived from the February issue. This ex- pectation is based upon the fact that there are exceptionally large amvunts of :noney now lying idle and seeking investment in the money centers of the covntry, and upon the further fact that the February issue is now quoted at $118.50, or about 2 per cent above the price which would yield 3 per cent. From the last issue there was realized 3$58,000,917.63, and of this amount $52,850,264. was in gold coin, $5,810,420 in gold certificates and $233.39 in other money, which the subtreasuries were compelled to take in making change. While these amounts were actually paid into the treasury in gold or its equivalent, @ very considerable amount of gold was withdrawn from the subtreasuries for the express purpose of using it again in pa: ing for the bonds. The exact amount th withdrawn cannot be ascertained, but the best judgment obtainable is that it approx- imated $15,000,000. With a view of a more exact estimate of the amounts which may be withdrawn between now and the settle- ment of all accounts under the call, the subtreasurer will from this date keep a record of all depostis of legal tenders made in exchange for gold «nd the names of the firms or persons making them. The fol- towing 1s the Secretary’s circular for bids. ‘The Secretary's Circular. TREASURY DEPARTMENT, Washington, D. C., November 13, 1894.
