The Washington House Visited and Famous Marye’s Heights—Counting Bullet Holes and Securing Relics. The excursion of the National Geograph- ic Society Saturday to Fredericksburg was a success, in spite of threatening weather. The tzasket picnic and the literary features found shelter in the opcra house, and were thoroughly enjoyed. The citizens of Fred- ericksburg and the ladies of the Mary Washington Menument Association were most ccrdial in their hospitality, and made the day one long to be remembered for its pleasures. The exercises in the opera house opened with a happy little speech by Mr. Gardiner Hubbard, president of the so- ciety. The party was welcomed to the town ty A. P. Rowe, mayor of Fredericks- burg. ‘There was an exceedingly felicitous address on the part of the state of Vir- ginia by Maj. Jed Hotchkiss of Staunton, while Mr. W. Seymour White spoke on the points of local interest. Prof. W. J. Mc- Gee of the bureau of ethnology spoke on the geography of the Rappahannock val- ley, and an interesting address, with many humorous touches, on Fredericksburg, past and present, was made by Rev. R. R. How- ison of Braehead. ‘There were many in the party who were In the battle of Fredericksburg, among them Gen. Gibbon, Col. Andrews, Gen. Batcheller, Gen. Greely and Maj. Hotch- kiss. Gen. Greely was in the nineteenth Massachusetts infantry, and of thirty-six men in his company he and five others were all who came through unhurt. The party visited the Mary Washington hcuse, where George Washington Spent his boyhocd, and the picturesqué height, where Mrs. Washington used to go so frequently that the monument to her memory is to be placed there. At Marye’s Heights the party were interested to see the place where the hardest fighting ever known in the history of the world took place. In one of the buildings they counted sixty-four bullet holes in a space ten feet square. The Sunk road, where Cobb’s and Ker- shaw’s brigades so often repulsed the Union troops, was a place of special inter- est..One of the speakers in the Opera House said that within a radius of eigh- teen miles of Fredericksburg more fighting had taken place and more loss of life had been known than in any other area of the same size on the face of the earth. Within that circle would be included the battle- fields of Chancellorsville, Wilderness, Spottsylvania and Fredericksburg. Some of the party were so lucky as to find some bullets on the battlefield, and many bought relics of the hosts of small boys everywhere abundant. At 6 o’clock the party returned to Washington, all well pleased with a most enjoyable outing. Among those who were in the party were: istant Secretary of Agriculture Dr. abney, Col. J. H. Haldeman, Paymaster . Dr. and Mrs. Miss Wilson and Mr. Dr. J. T. Sotheron, M. A. A. Patterson, Mrs. Pierce, Assistant mginieers F, H. Bailey, U. S. Dr. Griffith, U.

Emma Ford and her admirer, George Washington, were prisoners tn Judge Mil- ler’s court this morning, and the charge against them was using personal vio- lence toward Thomas Hanley, a member of the police force. The officer appeared in court to prosecute the case, and the several yards of cotton about his head gave the court an idea of the extent of the injurtes that had be2n inflicted. Emma Ford started the trouble which had such a painful ending, and fortunately for the ottiecr a “Bulldog” revolver in the hands of the man did not go off when the trigzer was pulled, and that was the only reason why the case was in court instead of be- fore the coroner. Emma Ford ts better known to the police of the third precinct than any other of her sex and her reputation is that of a “police fighter.” During the past eight years, so Sergt. Keefe said this morning, she has whipped almost every policeman in the precinct, and only once did an officer use his club on her. She was arrested last week, in company with another woman, and she succeeded in convincing the court that she was in the right and was discharged. Yesterday Emma had been drinking and was near her home in Green’s alley near 20th aud E streets, wnen Officer Harley ac alung and informed her that she would have to go to the station for dis- orderly conduct. Emma knew she had whi men during the past sev he thought she would hi no difficulty in administering this officer a thrashing. When she had informed the cflicer that she would not go with him she started to- ward her house. Reaching a vacant lot she turned and sai f you come up here —- —I'll kill you.

He pu the trigger several times, but there was oniy one cartridge in the weapon, and the filled chamber was not reached before he was relieved of tlie weapon. The officer attempted to fire a second shot, but his weapon missed fire. A large , but none of t to the officer’s assistance. When quiet was restored, the oificer left the place with his prisoners. His head had been badly battered by George Washing- ton, while Emma had scratched him and torn off his collar and part of his shirt. The woman’s head was injured and her dress was stained with blood. Officer Hanley, although badly used up, succeeded in holding itis prisoners and landing them in the station. Judge Miller heard the evidence of sev- eral witnesses and held the prisoners in $500 security for the action of the grand jury. J"the court did not dispose of the charge of disorderly conduct against the woman. eS Death of Col. James Young. Col. James Young of Middletown, Dau- Fhin county, Pa., died Saturday of injuries sustained by being thrown from a bugsy on Thursday evening. He was seventy- five years of age. Col. Youhg was one of the best-known and wealthiest farmers in Pennsylvania, and owned fourteen farms adjoining.

SOME DAY men may find a positive cure for Consumption, but it is a great thing to be able to prevent it, and in its early stages even to cure it. The only remedy yet known to prevent, as well as to cure in the early stages of the disease, is Scott's Emulsion of Cod-liver Oil with the Hypo- Pphosphites of Lime and Soda. It acts in two ways—as a medi- cine destroying the germs which cause the disease, and as a food stopping the wasting (the con- suming), and replacing the lost flesh and tissue.
