Wednesday night last a well-known man of the fourth ward got a little intoxicated, and preceeded to go to his home and clean out the house. When he arrived there he became very abusive to his wife and daugh- ter; so much so that they were compelled to get out in a hurry and go to the sta- tion house for a warrant for his arrest. Wher the case was called in the police covrt this morning the wife had become sorry fcr her part in the affair, and wished to withdraw the warrant, but this the mayor would nut allow. The case showed very plai@ly that this was not the first time the thirg had occurred, and the mayor was very bitter in the denunciation of a man who would ill-treat his wife, and said that but for the pleadings of his wife he would have fined him to the full extent of the law, and only wished that the law was such that he could be tied to a whipping post and given “nine-thirty,” as that was the only suitable punishment for such a case. The mayor imposed a tine of $5, and he had hardly gotten the words out of his mouth before the wife spoke up in an in- dignant manner and said: yell, that's the last $5 the corporation will ever get out of me; he can go to jail first.” She paid the fine, and they went away to- gether, The Police Court. Mayor Straues disposed of the following cases in the police court this morning: Two small colored boys, charged with throwing stones in the streets, were fined $1 each. Armstead Harris, colored, charg- ed with disorderly conduct and disturbing a church, wes fined $. A white man for drunk and disorderly conduct was fined $4. Columbin Fire Company. Some of the members of the Columbia Fire Company, being dissatisfied with the action of the company in declining the in- vitation to take part in the confederate memorial services on the 24th instant, have called another meeting for tonight, at which the matter will be reconsidered, and it is thought the invitation will be ac- cepted. Catcher Clark Improved. Edward Clark, the catcher for the Old Dominion Base Ball Club, who was so badly burt while playing base ball on Col- ross grounds Wednesday afternoon, is very much better this morning He has been suffering a great deal since the accident, but is now thought to be out of danger. Dr. Quackenbush thinks he will get out of bed. témorrow. : Hydraulian Firemen Exonerated.

Howard Falkener’s Parents Alarmed— Plensant Christian Endeavor Social. No word has b@en received from Howard Falkener, the boy who disappeared from his home here two weeks ago. His mother and father, in consequence, are nearly dis- tracted. It is known that Howard once had an offer to go with a horse racing man as attendant, or jockey, or assistant, and it is possible that the boy may be found on one of the race tracks. The police believe it to be a simple case of run away from home. The Y. P. S. C. E. of Peck Chapel gave another of its entertaining socials Thurs- day evening, in the public hall. A fine feature of the program was the exhibition of swordsmanship given by experts from Fort Myer. The contests were various and exciting, great skill and thorough training being shown. Miss Florence 1. Barringer sang “The Creole’s Love Song” charmingly. Mr. Wm. Seaman rendered an Irish love song, entitled “The Pride of Mayo.” The Rodger ‘groups’ were presented effectively. Mrs. A. B. Barringer, Mrs. Wm. Drum- mond and Mr. Ben Brown did the receiving, while Mrs. E. M. Lenz assisted at the re- freshment table. On Sundays hereafter there will be prayer meetings regularly.

CIVIL SERVICE TALK The District Reform Association Holds Its - Annual Meeting. Mr. Eckelw’ Stirring Speech—Ex-Com- missioner Dougtas: md Rev. Mackay Smith, The Civil Service Reform Association of the District of Columbia, sixty strong, with a hundred or more outsiders present, held fts annual meeting last evening in the assembly room of the Columbian Uni- versity. William B. Webb, ex-Commis- sioner of the District, presided. Secretary Julius Sterling Morton was expected to make an address, but owing to sickness was unable to be present, much to the evi- dent regret of the audience. In his absence, Mr. J. H. Eckels, con- troller of the currency, who had also been slated for a brief speech, extended his ef- fort somewhat with the generous hope of filling the gap. Mr. Eckels’ Speech. Mr. Eckels is not a fluent speaker, but he is earnest and honest, two qualities that go much farther with a civil service re- form audience than the first. He said the idea of good government had taken hold of the people and come to stay. It was shown in New York city, where the voter went to the polls asking himself, not what sordid advantage would come to him or to his party, but what candidates would give the public the best government. It was in obedience to this desire for gocd government that a republican mayor was elected in that stronghold of democ- racy. And while in New York this took place without definite issue by party action and without a distinct sponsorship on part of the reform associations, in Chicago the municipal civil service was directly the issue, and the Civil Service Reform Asso- ciation of that city was responsible for the overwhelming triumph that occurred. The sentiment that now lies behind the reform movement is so strong that it can only go forward to greater success. If submitted to the voters of the United States now there would be an overwhelm- ing majority in favor of civil service re- form. Mr. Eckels was applauded again and again as his clean-cut utterances came in rapid and logical succession. The Secretary’s Report. ‘The annual report of the secretary, Mr. Fred Siddons, was received with the beart- fest enthusiasm. His strictures on the Taylor incident were applauded loudly. He said: “At the direction of the executive committee of the association I inquired into the charges against Taylor and learned that most of them, if not all, were well founded, and I so reported to the commit- tee. Since then a revolting criminal action for libel instituted by Taylor ugainst the colored publisher of a local paper has been tried and the public of Washington thereby given convincing evidence of the evil re- sults following the application of the spoils system to.public places. The gross scan- dals that have arisen in connection with Taylor's appointment to the office of record- er of deeds are the legitimate offspring of the principles invoked in placing him in that position. “A committee of the association, in an interview with the President toward the close of the winter, urged immediate con- sideration of the report and recommenda- tions of the civil service commission ‘re- ferred to above, and which were made to him last Augu: So far as is known, however, the case has not yet been dis- posed of. “It is much to be regretted that in this ard other cases where charges of viola- tions of the civil scrvice law have been made by the officials who administer the law there has not followed an immediate consideration of them by the executive authority, and where sustained that swift Funishment has not been meted out to the offenders.”” The report expressed the gratitude of the association to the President for many extensions of the system during the year, and also to Secretaries Morton and ex- Postmaster General Bissell for many evi- dences of their sympathy with the move- ment. The character of Mr. Bissell’s suc- cessor promised all, said Mr. Siddons, that could be asked of any man in behalf of the civil service. Upon the motion of Mr. Edson the report was unanimously adopted. An Ex-Commissioner’s Idea of It. Ex-Commissioner Douglass was intro- duced and made a brief speech full of in- terest to the audience. More than any other thing, while Le was District Com- missioner, the question of offices annoyed and harassed the board. He decided early in his incumbency to refuse to put out democrats because they differed from him in politics, and he said-he would have been glad to see every office under the Commis- sioners put under the civil service rules. A Clergyman’s View. Rev. A. Mackay-Smith made a rousing speech, reviewing the excellent results of the reform, which, he said, were far in excess of all reasonable expectation ten years ago. Two things he especially urged. One was that the system of competitive examinations might not be the best, but it was the best available practical system. When anything better came along the civil Service people, he said, would drop the present way and take up the new one. The other thing he wanted. was to see the fourth-class post offices under the rules, So that these offices could not’ be used by politicians to bolster up their own misera- ble, selfish fortunes. With a hearty round of cheers for Mr. Mackay-Smith’s speech the meeting ad- journed, having been a most enjoyable and enthusiastic occasion, promising continued and zealous adherence to the cause of civil service reform. ———— es DISTRICT GOVERNMENT. 1 Police Force Changes.
