Tailor Horn and Two Constables Play Hide-and-See Persons passing along F street between 6th and 7th streets northwest yester- day afternoon witnessed an amusing in- cident. At the time referred to a pair of constables, armed with an imposing legal document, entered the tailoring es- tablishment of A. Horn, 613 F street, and informed the proprietor that they were there for the purpose of carrying off cer- tain of the stock to satisfy a civil law judgment. Mr. Horn made an unintelligible reply, and while the eye of the law was being cast about to decide what articles should be confiscated, quietly slipped out and} secured the doors with a big padlock. The flank movement was a surprise, and the constables were immediately thrown into a state of consternation. A large crowd soon gathered in front of the building and enjoyed the situation thoroughly. Mr. Horn moved up and down with a self-satisfied smile on his countenance. Be- fcre many moments elapsed a policeman drew near to learn the cause of the mass- ing of so many people. Ap) ignorant as to the course to be pursued, for he hastened to headquarter: instructions from Major Moore. ordered that as the matter in dispute was a civil case the only duty required of the police was to prevent violence. Before long a compromise was agreed upon and the constables were allowed to leave the store in order to partake .of luncheon a neighboring cafe. At this point a brother of Mr. Horn removed the lock. As he did so a constable moved for- ward from the crowd and attempted to pass through the doorway, but the young man, perceiving the move, quickly snapped the lock through the kasp and politely inquired why the officer did not enter. The remark was enjoyed by the crowd. After locking and securely The latter olting the }eloors on the inside the padlock was finally removed. In the meantime the constables had moved away and the crewd slowly dispersed. The reason for the attempted seizure vas a judgment for rent, amounting to ecured against Mr. Horn, from A. S. Taylor, a justice of the peace. . Horn says he has offered to give his rote for the sum mentioned, but Mr. Emery refused to accept it. The constables, who declined to give their names, stated to a Star reporter that the only thing for them to do is to watch the establishment and take advantage of a favorable opportunity to carry off the stock desired. = Installation Garfield Council, No. 1, Order of Chosen Friends, enjoyed a very pleasant affair last evening.

If every reader of The Evening Star who can afford it would send but a single pound to The Star’s pound party it would go far toward feeding the hungry of the city. From 8 to 8—those are the hours. A big room on the 1lth street side of The Star. buildings—that is the place. A few thous- and pounds of groceries will start the work of the central relief committee with a boom.

AFFAIRS IN ALEXANDRIA Terrible Accide>t to Little Eddie Hayden Yesterday. Many Other Notes of a General and Local Interest’ \Concerntug len and ‘Things. Eddie, the little son of Mr. Thomas. Hay- den, met with a painful and more than likely serious accident }ésterday afternoon while playing at the home of his father. From what could be learned it appears that Eddie, with a little brother, was play- ing in the kitchen, when the younger child accidentally struck a kettle of boiling water which was sitting on the stove and over- turned it, spilling the entire contents on Eddie, scalding him to such an extent that his flesh was literally cooked and dropped from his bones. His head and shoulders presented a horrible sight. Dr. 't. Marshall Jores was hastily summoned and used every possible medical aid to relieve the suffering of the child. He is of the opinion, however, that the accident will prove fatal. Maud, the five-year-old daughter of Mr. Jacob ‘Brown, while playing yesterday afternoon with a pair of scissors, started to cross the room after her mother, when she slipped and fell, running the point of the scissors into her right eye. The shrieks of the little one were painful, and when the blade was pulled from her eye the blood gushed out in a stream. Dr. Klip- stein, who was summoned, dressed the in- jured optic, but is of the opinion that the Sight will be lost. An Official Visit. Grand Chancellor EB. P. Holce of Virginia will make an official visit to the Knights of Pythias of this city tomorrow night, on which occasion there will be a regular meeting of Mechanics: Lodge. The mem- bers of the other two lodges in this city, the Alexandria and the Oriental, will be present in a body. District Deputy Grand Chancellor B. Boyer of this city has been officially notified of the proposed visit and will meet Grand Chancellor Holce, who will arrive frem Richmond about noon to- morrow. Y. M. S. L. Entertained. Rey.

The Athletic Association of the Univer- sity of Pennsylvania has received a letter from the sporting authorities of Columbia Ccllege, New York, suggesting a four-mile boat race between the crews of the two colleges next summer, in view of the fail- ure of the Pennsylvanfa-Cornell project.

A special cable from London says: “Charley Mitchell has_‘challenged Peter Jackson to fight according to Queensbury or London prize ring rules for £1,000 a side, fight to take place next May or June. Pony Moore deposited £100 forfeit. Mitchell says if he defeats Jackson he will have a fur- ther claim for another match with Corbett, who, he asserts, owes him a return match. He further says that Corbett, even if he defeats Fitzsimmons, cannot honorably re- ee champion of the world before meeting him.’ A Possible Cup Defender. The New York World today says: “It was stated on good authority yesterday, in yachting circles, that an order had been placed with the Herreshoffs for a cup de- fender for the syndicate organized by Vice Commodore M. Brown. This report could not be verified, but it was learned that the formation of the syndicate had progressed so far that if the order had not been given it would today. The principal men in the syndicate are E. M. Brown, C. Oliver Ise- lin, George Gould and Cornelius Vander- hilt. As far as could be, learned, the new yacht will be a keel boat, 1nd will embody in her model many of the good points of the Britannia and Valkyrie Ii. C. Oliver Ise- lin will have charge of the boat. It is very likely that there will be another syndicate formed, but by whom it is not stated yet.” The Favorites Slaughtered. It was a slaughter of the favorites yes- terday at the Alexander Island course, all five first choices going down in succession. Jockey Johnson has been suspended, pend- ing an inquiry whether he is under con- tract to Judge McMahon. The latter claims the jockey has a verbal contract, which is denied by the boy.

Johnny, 10 to 1, won the third easily. Classic, 4 to 5, choice for the fourth, was easily beaten by Irene, 5 to 2. ‘The last race feil to McKeever, 10 to 1. The Southern League.
