An Important Question. A nicely dressed woman visited the de- tective office yesterday afternoon seeking information. She met Detective Boardman, who rides @ bicycle; and asked: “Is it necessary to get a permit to wear bloomers in Washington?” “There is no law on the subject,” the detective answered, “and it is your priv- liege to wear them or not, as you please.” She will probably appear on a wheel in bloomers, although she did not say any- thing about riding a bicycle. para acsiaat Mr. Jefferson's Art Talk. The social life of the capital was well represented at Metzerott Hall yesterday afternoon, on the occasion of the talk on art by Mr. Joseph Jefferson, the popular comedian, who is only less clever with the brush than he is behind the footlights. Mrs. Cleveland occupied a box, and many other people who are prominent in society and the art world were in the hall. Mr. Jefferson's “lecture” was really an_in- formal talk on the kindred subjects of art on the stage and art on canvas, with more attention paid to the former. It was a delightful mingling of observation, per- sonal opinion and anecdote that charmed his hearers. At the conclusion of his talk Mr. Jefferson was the recipient of a hand- some fioral testimonial from the Art Students’ League, under whose auspices the lecture was given. —-_-- Its Twenty-Fifth Anniversary.

ITHE DISTRICT JAIL Facts From the Annual Report of Warden Leonard. SANITARY CONDITION NEARLY PERFECT The Physician Reports Some of the Food Furnished Bad. THE SMALLPOX SCARE The Attorney General has received the annual report of John R. Leonard, warden of the United States jail in this city, for the year ending October 31 last. The nuin- ber of prisoners November 1, 189%, was 23; received during the year, 2,516; dis- charged during the year, 2, number re- maining November 1, 1804, 337, The largest number of prisoners on any one day was 357, and the smallest number was 251. The average daily number of prisoners during 1804 was 295, and the average during the preceding year was 201. Of the 387 prison- ers November 1 last, 54 were white males, 257 were coldred males, and 26 colored fe- males. There were no white female prison- era. During thé year 183, prisoners were conveyed to the Albany penitentiary under sentences imposed by the Supreme Court of the District, being 54 more than in 1893, and 59 more than in 1892. During the year 12 persons were sent to the District reform school by order of the various courts of the District. Six prisoners were pardoned by the President; 9 were sent to the insane asylum; 33 were discharged by United States commissioners; 1 was executed by hanging, and 3 died. During the year 14 persons were committed to the jail charged with murder; of these 6 are white, and 8 are colored, and all are males, ‘Sanitary Condition Good. The warden says that the sanitary con- dition of the jail is as nearly perfect as could be expected. During the year experi- ments were made with several kinds of disinfectants, both powder and liquid, and the one now in use gives entire satisfac- tion. Several improvements have been made in and around the jail. One that was much needed, says the warden, was the repair of the roof, which, he adds, will answer until permanent repairs can be made. The warden says he ts much in- debted to the Department of Justice, to th Judggs of the Supreme Court of the District and Yo the United States district attorney for their assistance, ani also for their — in disposing of vases awaiting The Physician’s Report. Dr. Shute, the physician of the jail, in his annual report, says that there were three deaths at the jail during the past year, one from consumption, one from pneumonia and one the result of an acci- dent. During the months of September and October a large number of the pris- oners and several of the officers of the Jail suffered severely with malarial fever, due, in the physician’s opinion, to the close proximity of the jail to the marshes of the Eastern branch. The cases yielded read- fly to treatment. Apart from those pris- oners, whose lives had been of such a character as to induce disease in any lo- cality, and apart from the malarial cases, Dr. Shute says the health of the prison- ers has been remarkably yood. Proximity of the Smallpox Hospital. “On several occasions," he says, “the bread, meat and fish furnished the jail were found to be of such inferior quality that it was necessary to condemn them; since then the food furnished the prisoners by the contractors has been entirely sat- isfactory. I desire specially to mention the fact that the close proximity of the contagious disease hospital to the jail is a constant source of danger to the large number of inmates, officers and prisoners, who are datly in the jail. During the pre: ent prevalence of smallpox in the city and at the contagious disease hospital we have taken every precaution to prevent the disease getting among the officers or pri: oners of the jail. All the officers and pri oners have been vaccinated and all pris- oners coming to the jail every day are immediately vaccinated. There is no case of smallpox in the jail nor has any case occurred here during the past year. As a further precaution against the possible en- trance of smalipox into the jail during the presence of the disease in the city, the friends of the prisoners are prohibited from visiting them.” Warden Leonard says he indorses the views of the jail physician in regard to the contagious disease hospital, which he believes, in case of an epidemic, to be too close to the jatl. ——>_—_ HOME FOR INCURABLES. The Luncheon on Tuesday Next and Where Donations Can Be Sent. There is a great deal of interest mani- fested in the efforts which are being made by the managers o¢ that deserving charity, the Home for Incurables, to replenish the treasury, which is practically empty. As the home receives no aid from Congress, entire dependence is placed upon the gen- erosity of the friends of the institution. A luncheon is to be given at St. John’s Hall on ‘Tuesday next, when an oppor- tunity will be presented to contribute to this worthy object. Donations of money, clothing or supplies of any kind will be thankfully received either by Mrs. Archi- bald Hopkins, 1826 Massachusetts avenue, or at the hall on the day of the luncheon, and will be officially acknowledged Ly Mr: Hopkins, the acting vice president. — DAMAGES AWARDED. A Railroad Track Depreciated Prop- erty on Maryland Avenue. In expressing the opinion of the Court of Appeals in the suit for an injunction instituted by Mr. J. Harrison Johnson egainst the Baltimore ond Potomac rail- road, as reported in yesterday's Star, Mr. Justise Morris suggested that a suit at law for damages was the proper proceeding. Such a proceeding wes concluded before Chief Justice Bingham, in Cireult Court No. 2, late yesterday afternoon, when a verdict for $5,000 damages was returned against the Baltimore and Potomac Rail- road Company. The case was one institut- ed by John H. and George H. Taylor, by their next friend, George Neitzey, in 189), and grew cut of the alleged unlawful lay- ing by the ccmpany of a side track to the main track on Maryland avenue. It was alleged that the track ran within a few inches of the curbing near the building be- longing to the plaintiffs on the corner of 13 1-2 street and Maryland avenue, and was laid in 1874. It was also alleged that because of the annoyance occasioned by passing trains the rent of the building de- teriorated from $50 to $10 a month, lo —_s__. The Youthful Incendiary. Wiliam Sanders, the fifteen-year-old col- ored toy who was arrested cn a charge of arson, in setting fire to a pile of wood and a shed at Johnson's cual yard, on 7th street, a few days ago, as published in yester- day's Star, was given a hearing in Judge Miller's court this morning. Among the witnesses for the prosecution were several little boys, companions of the youthful in- cendiary, and one of them said that San- ders told him Sunday afternoon that he was going to set the place on fire. Precinct Detective Barnes and Officer Hayhurst also gave evidence, and the court held the boy for the action of the grand jury. He was committed in default of bond. a A Cure That Cures Is the kind most people desire.

Albaugh’s Grand Opera House.—Herr- mann was not prevented by unpropittous circumstances from appearing last night at Albaugh’s, where he will fill out the rest of the week’s engagement originally an- nounced. It could not have been otherwise. Where would rest the advantage of being the prince of hanky-panky men if a mere law suit were to slip in between him and the admiring public? The delay in his com- ing cannot do otherwise than redound to his credit in the popular estimation, as it was highly respectful and considerate in the wizard to awalt the conventionalitles surrounding the courts instead of setting up his vanishing lady apparatus and get- ting into it himself. He has new tricks, or rather, old ones that seem like new, us he always has, besides the reliable stock of legerdemain tricks, which never grow tire- some. His eye to the picturesque assists amazingly in making his feats interesting and attractive. He fully appreciates the force which a little embellishment, either in the way of wit or scenic accompani- ment, lends. It is easier to decejve the eye when the senses are soothed, and Herr- mann takes advantage of the fact very thoroughly. “Noah's ark after the flood” is a_new device, presenting a miniature ark first empty, then half full of water, the effects of the voyage,and lastly full of living creatures, all without giving the audience any clue as to where the livestock or the moisture comes from. “The artist's dream” is a very pretty and effective illusion, with @ materialization of Madame Herrmann within a seemingly empty picture as the central idea, and some neat incidental pantomime. Mme. Herrmann’s skirt danc- ing was one of the enjoyable features of the performance. Mezerott Hall.—Fifty-three people, by actual count, were present at Metzerott Hall last evening, drawn thither by the ad- vertisement of u testimonial concert to Nina Bértini-Humphre)s. There was no Bertini-Humphreys at Metzerott Hall, the explanation given being that she had signed with the Tavery Opéra Company and had received a dispatch to at once go to Chi- cago. But there were an excellent quartet, t piano soloiste and a harpist, who fur- nished an extremely attractive program and performed their parts with as much conscientiousness as if the hall had been’ crowded. The quartet consisted of Miss Hettie Bradly, sopranojgMrs. Alec Irving, contralto; Mr. Chas. Stuart Phillips, tenor, and Mr. Frederick Reddale, bass, and they styled themselves the English Glee Club, Each is a good soloist, and their concerted work of madrigals’ folk song, «nd Sulli- van’s Lullaby, “Oh, Hush Thee, My Baby,” was excellently done. The pianists were Mr. Emanuel Wad and Mi: 4 gem the former of whom has an reputation, which he fully sustained, and the latter made a favorable impression by her earnestness, and gave promise of much to come. Miss Camile Toulnim, the harpist, proved herself an artist, and pleased by the finish of her performance, Maud Powell.—Tonight, at Metzerott’s Hall, Miss Maud Powell, who stands in the very first rank of violinists, will be heard at the head of a string quartet, the other members of which are Josef Kovarik, sec- ond violin; Frank P. Kaltenborn, viola, und Paul Miersch, violoncello. The well-known ability of Miss Powell d Mr. Miersch fs @ guarantee that their associates are fully up to the required standard, and a program of the finest quartet music ever acard here may be anticip@led. Solos from the differ- ent members will be given, and Mrs. Katherine Wadsworth, a soprano soloist, said to be of a high order of merit, will also assist. Miss Powell has many friends in this city, and they should fill Metzerott Hali tonight, in order to show that her talent is appreciated. The price of seats has been fixed so that all can be accommo- dated and listen to a first-class concert, without the expenditure of much money. “The New South."—The beautiful Ameri- can play, “The New South,” by Clay M. Greene and Joseph Grismer, that comes to Albaugh’s Opera House next Monday, has been seen at the Broadway Theater, New York city, for 100 nights. “The New South" ts not a “war play.” Its story is ingentously founded upon the frugal custom of the state of Georgia of saving the board and lodging of offenders against its laws by the econcmical expedient of leasing them to citizens under contract for labor- ers. It is a melodrama, pure and simple, concerning itself very little with the trath- ful illustration of manners, the manufac- ture of literature, or the delineation of character. It nevertheless incidentaliy presente a very interesting picture of so- cial and political matters in the recon- structed south. It introduces, among other novelties incidental to its scene and period, to a new phase of the colcred man, who ap- pears in the character of Samson, for the first time as a very serious, not to say se@undrelly, dramatic type. Mr. Grismer, one of the authors, sustains the leading role, and Phoebe Davies enacts the heroine, and Manager Brady has selected a splendid company in connection with: the stars. Sampson and a Star Specialty Company—- C. A. Sampson, the strongest man on earth, will return to Kernan’s Lyceum Theater next week, in conjunction with Fred Wald- mann's Star Specialty Company. Sampson has added many new and sensational feats, of strength to his already marvelous per- formance, which exhibits his almost mir- aculous strengt! This remarkable man breaks silver dimes and quarters between his fingers, and pulls asunder iron chains tested to hold the weight of 3,000 pounds. The Waldmann company is an aggrega- tion of superior vaudeville artists. They come direct fron: Waldmann’s Theater, Newark. The organization includes Mlle. Ottille, the French comique, from the Fol: Mes Bergerc, Paris; the Olympic Quartet, late of Evans and Hoey’s Parlor Match Company; Crimins and Magee, the up-to- date comedians,and the Patterson Brothers, acrobats. The Philharmonic Club's Concert.—The program of the Philharmonic Club’s con- cert tomorrow night is of particular inter- est by reason of the relation it bears to Franz Liszt. Besides some other brilliant pieces, Mrs. Lent will play the “Love Dream,” one of this master’s attractive compositions for the piano. The grand trio op. 97, by Beethoven, the opening number of the concert, was one of Liszt's favorite pieces. At the age of eleven, when intro- duced to Beethoven, he played it by heart with such effect that the old master was moved to tears. Anton Schott was ve! much admired by Liszt and repeatedly pro- nounced by him the greatest dramatic tenor living. He will sing the Graal song from Lohengrin, and the love song from the Valkyrie, by Wagner, Liszt's son-in- law and most devoted friend. It is not saying too much, that in the rendition of these two songs and Schumann’s “Grena- diers,” which is also on the program, Schott stands uneaualed. He will also render two songs by Peter Cornelius. Messrs. Lent und Rakemann, and last but not least, Miss Dora Valesca Becker, a charming young lady violinist of great di tinction, will complete the program, which certainly is one of the most interesting given in this city. A full house is expected at Metzerott’s on this occasion. The C. C. Course.—Will Carleton, the household poet, whose first attempt at verse making resulted in that now fa- mous poem, “Betsy and I Are Out,” will visit Washington this winter and give one of the evenings of the C. C. course. His lecture is entitled “The Chain of Success,” and during the course of the evening he recites many of his own popular ballads, After Fevers SARCAPARILLA RESTORES FULL HBALTH AND STRENGTH. HOOD'S After the grip, pneumonia, diphtheria, typhoid fever, and other wasting diseases, Hood's Sarsa- parilla is exactly adapted to build up the system and restore the wasted strength. The following is @ case in point: ‘My son had the grip, which left him very weak. His stomach and lungs were also affected. He could not eat or sleep. I got him a bottle of Hood's Sarsaparilla, and when he bad taken but few doses I saw A CHANGE FOR THE BETTER. One bottle was all he needed before he was better than he had been for years. He had always been sickly, but Hood’s Sarsaparilla cured him. I also gave it to my Mttle girl, aged nine years, Bbe Hood’s Sarsaparilla Cures was 80 poorly I had to keep her home from school.
