At the meeting of the Confederate Veter- ans’ Association held last night it was ar- ranged to give an excursion to Marshall Hall on the steamer Macalester July 2. An interesting communication was received from Gen. John B. Gordon, commander of the United Confederate Veterans, which was in the shape of a general order, calling attention to the importance of the fifth an- nual meeting and reunion of the associa- tion at Houston, Texas, in May. It was cited that many questions of vital interest would be discussed there, including the proposition for the erection of a monument to Jefferson Davis. The order announced that 577 camps are now enrolled in the United Confederate Veterans, while appli- cations were pending on 100 more, and each camp was urged to send a delegate to Houston. ———.—_—_.

Mrs. Wright was a frequent vis- iter at the Wanamaker home during the last administration, and Miss Wanamaker was to have been a bridesmaid at the wed- ding, but the recent death of the step- father of the bride changed the elaborate plans made for the event.

Judge Miller heard a case today in which race track touts and jockeys were inter- ested, and the followers of the races re- ceived no encouragement whatever. Sey- mour Butler, the Pinkerton detective, and Patsey Brannigan, a jockey, fourteen years old, who owns 4 thirty-six-dollar race horse named “Equator,” were the inter- ested parties in the case tried, and during the hearing of the case the judge took occa- sion to remind the followers of the races that they are not wanted here. So much interest was taken in the case that Inspec- ter Hollinberger and a number of officers were present at the hearing. The detectives were anxious to see the court sustain the detective, while more than one policeman in uniform was anxious to have the Pinker- ton officer get the worst of the trial. So deeply interested in the matter were they that one of them prompted’ Lawyer Moss, who represented the boy. Detective Butler has been employed on the race tracks in different parts of the country for a number of years, and the po- lice here say he knows most of the promi- nent crooks in the country, and more espe- clally those who follow the races. om time to time he has put off the track a number of touts, jockeys and others, and it was because he drove Brannigan away from the track yesterday that there was trouble last night on Pennsylvania avenue near 6th street. The young jockey accosted the detective and wanted to know why he had been kept off the track, at the same time using in- sulting and profane language, so the officer says. Detective Butler endeavored to get rid of the boy, but could not do so, and when the boy began kicking him he had to slap tim or hold him off. Charles Hill, a saloon- keeper, who witnessed part of the affair, took a hand in it, and he and the detective came together. No one was hurt, but the police arrested the trio. A number of wit- esses were examined in the case, includ- ing a nineteen-year-old boy, wno admitted that he was a tout, and had been put off the track. Lawyer Moss questioned Detective Butler closely concerning the ways and means about the race track, and the officer said to him: “I put you out of the reporters’ ring at the track one day and you are mad about it.” When the boy was questioned he said he bought the horse for $36, at had not yet run_him. “Where do you belong?” the court asked him. “fm from Philadelphia.” “Where's your father?” “There he is," answered the boy. “I had a little money the other day and I brought him over here.” Judge Miller remarked that it is a la- mentable sight to see these little boys fol- lowing race tracks and hanging about saloons, pool rooms and other places, and he thought they ought to be Sent out of town. “That’s just what we want to do with them,” said Inspector Hollinberger, “We would like to get rid of all of them, and the race tracks, too.”” ‘The boy’s father was then questioned and he said that his boy would go home as soon as he sold the horse. “That’s what you had better do with him,” the judge said. “It’s about time that all such chaps were sent home. If such children are found with these immoral surroundings,hanging about the race tracks and bar rooms the court will take a hand in the matter and take them from their parents. Then they will be turned over to the board of children’s guardians as hay- ing no home.” Inspector Hcllinberger said he was glad to hear the court make these remarks, and said he would see that his officers did their duty in the matter. The charges against the three defendants were dismissed. en Ladies’ Day. The last ladies’ day of the season was given yesterday at the Columbia Athletic Club and was, like all its predecessors, an immense success. During the hours from 4 to 6 o’clock the club house, which was profusely decorated forthe occasion, was thronged with fair guests, wives, sisters and friends of the members of this popular organization. Upward of 500 enjoyed the hospitalities of the club and lingered among the charming rooms, making the best of their opportunity to see the inside of a building whose doors are usu- ally closed to them. The members of the house and amusemegt committees played the part of hosts and looked after the pleasure and comfort of their guests most successfully. During the afternoon an ath- letic exhibition was given in the gymnasi- um, under the direction of the club’s pro- fessor of gymnastics. Afterward the fioor was cleared and the remainder of the after- noon was spent in dancing. , ——— Letters of Administration. The Probate Court has been requested by Helen M. Saule, Mary E. Carrolls and Kate M. J. Benty, children of Catherine B. Bayliss, who died here January 20, 1895, to grant letters of administration to the National Safe Deposit, Savings and Trust Company of this city. The estate is said to be worth about $15,000, and the petition- ers state that their mother left no will. My Baby was a living skeleton; the doc- tor said he was dying of Maras- mus and Indigestion.

O'Hare, called up- cn the Commissioners this morning to urge scme minor improvements on the roads there. They Protest. An unexpected protest was made by a number of property holders on H street rortheast’ against the proposition of the Ccmmissioners to lay cement sidewalks and relay curb along the line of that street be- tween 2d and 15th, under the assessment eystem. Thece protests, together with those sub- mitted on other streets, will be considered by the Commissioners before action is taken. Bids Opened. The Commissioners this morning opened bids for laying asphalt pavements. The bidders were Thomas H. Thomas, Cranford Paving Company and Washington Asphalt Block and Tile Company, and the bids as follows: Thomas H. Thomas, six-inch base, $2.21; four-inch base, $1.97; surface, 98 cents; binder, $12, and bituminous base, $3.50. Cranford Paving Company, six-inch base, $2.19; four-inch base, $1.94; surface, $1.18; binder, $7.20, and bituminous base, $3. Washington Asphalt Block and‘ Tile Com- Pany, on gravel base, $1.84; on concrete base, . From a glance at these figures it will be seen at once that the competition in laying asphalt pavements appears to be at an end. ———— Narrow Escape. Capt. J. A. Howell, commandant of the navy yard, was thrown from the platform of a cable car near the gates of the navy yard yesterday afternoon and narrowly escaped serious injury. His head missed being hit by the truck by about three inch- es. Although a very close call, the captain sustained no injuries beyond a bruise or two and a tr damage to his trousers.
