The Academy of Music was a scene of rare beauty and lively interest last night on the occasion of the thirtieth annual commencement of the Columbian Univer- sity Law School. Every seat in the house was filled long before the time for opening the exercises of the evening, and at 8:30 there was hardly a foot of standing room to be had elther in the balcony or gallery. Mothers and sweethearts were there in force, and youth and beauty rose tler on tier from the fiddies to the dome. The floral decorations were plentiful and most artistic. Along the front of the stage was a bar of roses three or four feet deep, typical possibly of that less rosy bar to which the candidates for graduation will from now on address their talents and ac- cumulated learning. Suspended, not too high, but just high enough, above the center of the stage was a stack of law books, Blackstone forming the foundation rand Kent the topmost tome, with Judge c Cox's quiz occupying a conspicuous inter- mediate position. Around the whole vol- uminous pile was a bright laurel wreath made luminous by many little colored electric Hghts. Above this design was a huge pair of scales done in immortelles, and below, it all the illuminated letters On the stage sat the entire membership of the graduating class as near alike as a bushel of peas in their uniform dress suits, h a white carnation boutonniere on appropriate lapel. Keeping the class company in the ecstasies of the hour there sat on the stage with them Justice Har- an and Justice Brewer of the United States Supreme Court, Justice Bradley and Jus- tice Cox of the Supreme Court of the Dis- trict, Mr. William A. Maury, formerly as- sistant attorney general; William F. Mat- tingly, Henry E. Davis, Benjamin Butter- worth, William G. Johnson, Justice Cole of the District Supreme Court, J. Ormond Wilson, Senator John T. Morgan of Ala- bama and Holmes Conrad, solicitor general. Senator Morgan's Address. Dr. Samuel H. Greene, president of the university ad interim, presided during the evening, wearing the classic gown and mortar board. After prayer by Dr. Greene, Senator Jobn T. Morgan of Alabama was introduced as the orator of the occasion. His address was most cppropriate to the hour, abounding in good advice to the yeung men about to make trial of their attainments in the law, and rounded out with a most discerning and comprehen- sive review of the needs and opportunities of the times as related to those who follow the law as a life avocation.’ The unfolding experiment of our republican jurisprudence was compared with the Roman and the glish systems, and the declaration em- dignity of his calling de: y of the bench, the fidelity of our legisla- ive bodies, and tie integrity of our insti- tution. A belief in God and obedience to the rule cf conscience, together with a nse of brotherly obligations, were made the foundation traits of success In the law and the higher responsibilities of pub- ¢ life that so often follow honorable and able practice at the bar. Adverting to the international complications marking the Monroe doctrine, a strenuous defense and -xhortation w made in behaif of Amer- ‘can self-respect and domination on this continent. In conciusion the Senator said “To our country all America is looking for ease from the thraldom of kingeraft and rinuing despotism. Absolute and oppres- i BLY; can and does rule in the United Congress refuses to sbey the wil mM of the people.” Bachelors of Law.

Ehret Pitched ,fér the Browns and Was Easy fer the Senators. | There was a gdth’ played on the field at National Park yést@rday afternoon, and it was alleged to be @ base ball game, but fair-minded gritids. dver that it was noth- ing of the sort. If Monday’s game was base ball, then yeStefday’s affair was some- thing like old-faskioned shinny. There were few folks Who expected that a game would be attempéed, owing to the showers that fell during the Sfternoon. The marvel now is that ninejinhings were ever finish- ed. The home téam -won by virtue of su- rerior batting, but ‘ifs field work was much ore mildewed than that of the visitors. Neither side would have carried off a prize for effectiveness in stopping clocks, much less ground balls, with the field in such a condition. The chief trouble with the locals was that Joyce was laying off for a day: and three different men essayed to play third. Oblivion was their sole suc- cess. Boyd was the first victim, and he secured one out of four chances in three irnings. Mercer relieved him and took the only one that came his way. Then Stocks- dale, who, after doing brilliant work for five innings, had made one of his notable exhibiticng of weakness in the sixth, was removed from the game and Mercer suc- ceeded him in the box, Danny Coogan goirg to third and playing out the game there with two chances taken out of three presented. Washington's batting was fierce and con- secutive. The best hits came when there were senatorial caucuses being held on the bases. In the second inning Hassamer drove three men in with a smash to the left fence for two bases. The score tells the tale better than words, save that the base running must be explained by a word as to the condition of the ground, which was so soggy that men had difficulty at times in making bases on clean, safe hits. Hits that ordinarily would have been home runs were pulled down to doubles, thanks to the spongy paths. Score: WASHINGTOD ST. LOUIS, R-H.O.A. t.H.0.A.E.

Three favorites, a second choice and two outsiders won at Alexander Island yester- day, and it was therefore about an even thing between the talent and the eleven bookmakers who weighed in. The attend- ance was large and the racing on the whole rather interesting, the finishes in the first, ‘ond and fifth events being head affairs. The winners were: Grand Prix, 1 to 2; Mac Hunt, 7 to 1; Chateau, 2 to 1; Kazan, 10 to 1; Tammany Hail, 8 to 5; and West Side, 2 to 1. Midgets Defeated Stadents. What the Georgetown Juntors didn’t know about the national game was taught them on their own campus Monday after- neon when the “Tyros” of Gonzaga Col- lege defeated them to the tune of 29 to 1. Although the Tyros appeared as mid- gets against their big rivals, still they suc- ceeded by clever fielding and perfect team work in defeating the ‘varsity beys. game was very interesting throughout. Young Vogt of the Tyros pitched fine ball, only four hits being made off his puzzling aclivery. Foy, who pitched for George- tcwn for the first three innings, was so badly trounced by the midgets that he gave way to Willlams, who was batted hard at times. YALE’S STRONG Her ’Varsity Crew Will Be a Power- ful One Thix Year. idence of The Evening Star. NEW HAVEN, June 10, 1895. The ‘Varsity crew leave New Haven this year with the make-up entirely settled. Robert J. Cook’s visit ended all specula- tions. Owing to his trip to Europe, he had not seen the crew this spring, and his opin- ion was anxiously awaited. He had the crew out in the morning and afternoon, and when through with the day’s work ex- pressed himself as well pleased. Contrary to the other coaches, he did not express alarm at the great weight of the crew. This caused surprise, as he was considered to be strongly opposed to beefy oarsmen. It was expected that Cross, who still weighs 195 pounds, would be removed and Bailey, a sub., put in his place. But Cross is row- ing a graceful and effective oar, and now his place is assured. For Langford, the’ freshman stroke, Mr. Cook expressed great admiration. He said he was remarkably strong for a new man and had great piuck, showed good judg- ment in time, but his weakest point was his blade work. A little coaching will rem- edy this, and, with more expertence, he should develop into the best stroke Yale has had in years. As for the rest of the men, their places were pretty weil settled early in the spring. The great fault with the whole crew is its strong tendency to jose its snap and dash. Rumors of some very fast time are afloat, and, after several stretches, Capt. Arm- strong’s face has been wreathed in smiles, but he refused to giye out the time made. On the long stretches there appears a fault that will prove dangerovs unless checked in time—the men rely too much on sheer strength, lose their form and, although they do not tire themselves in their efforts, they impede the specd of the boat rather than increase it. Regular Work of the Crew. EST EIGHT. Special Corre: The crew have missed but three days’ work since starting in training, on January 10, and that was given them during the spring recess. For two hours every after- noon they have rowed up and down the Quinnipiac river and out into the harbor and lived on training table diet since March 15. This training has shown itself already. The present crew is undoubtedly the strongest that ever represented the uni- versity, if not the most skillful. But the need of graduate coaches to instill more skill into the men is strongly felt. To meet this need Robert J. Cook will be at New London during most of the stay. Sherwood B. Ives and Percy Bolton will be his chief assistants, while George Adee, John Rog- ers, Josh Hartwell and other prominent ex-oarsmen will be on hand at different times to give advice. Quarters at Gale’s Ferry. The same arrangements have been made as last year for the quartering of the crew at Gale’s ferry. The observation train will be run, as usual. The greatest care will be taken not to have the change affect the men. Several casks of New Haven water, special cook and trainer have been taken along, and, in the way of medical attendance, they will have three physicians among the coaches. The following is the age, height and weight of the men: e. Height. een Bow, armsttons, (capt), z= 5 ft. 8% lcomb. No. 2, H 5 ft. ito No. 3, : 175 No. 4, 195 No. 3, 187 No. 178 173 170 v7 It will be noticed that the averege weight of the crew was reduced during that warm spell but two pounds. From this it looks as if the crew could not possibly get be- low 175 pounds for the race on the 2Sth of June. The stroke has been gradually rais- ed, until now they are rowing at 33 or 34. A Novel Race for $10,000. Forty vehicles propelled by petroleum started from- Paris yesterday to race to Bordeaux and back. Fifty thousand francs will be given to the vehicle showing the best result. All kinds of vehicles, from bi- cycles up to omnibuses, are included in the competition. A large number of bicycle riders prepared to accompany the new machines en route, and preparations were made to recount the history of the race at each stage along the whole distance. The Grand Trotting Cirenit. The stewards of the Grand Circuit met at Ontario Beach, N. ¥., yesterday. The .as- sociations represented were: Saginaw, Mich.; Detroit, Cleveland, Buffalo, Hart- ford, New York and Rochester. The dates arranged were as follows: Saginaw, July 15 to 20; Detroit, July 22 to 27; Cleveland, July 29 to August 2; Buffalo, August 6 to 16; Rochester, August 20 to 23; New York, August to 31; Hartford, September 2 to 6. The purses agreed upon were as fol- lows: Saginaw, $25,000; Detro‘t, $60,000; Cleveland, $45,000; Buffalo, $70,000; Roches- ter, $20,000; New York, $40,000; Hartford, $50,000. Aggregate, $310,000. Crack Cyclists at Rochester. Six thousand persons: saw nearly all of the crack bicyclists of the country com- pete in all kinds of contests at the annual meet of the Lakeview Wheelmen yesterday afternoon at the Rochester, N. Y., Driving Park. They saw F. J. Titus, paced by a tandem, ride a mile in 2:02, lowering the state record; saw Dirnberger, better known ‘3 “King Michael,” cover the same course in 2:04 » and Arthur Zimmerman ride an exhibition mile in the slow time of 2:14 1-5. The meeting of Mike Dirnberger and Eddie Bald in the mile open, class B, was the first time this season that the two Buffalo m2n had come together, and there Was a great deal of interest to see whether Dirnberger, who early in the spring took the mile competition record from Bald, would be able to prove in a race that he is the superior. In the final heat Bald, McDonald and Cabanne finished ahead of Dirnberger in the good time of 2:08 3-5, Intercollegiate Athletic: A meeting of the executive committee of the Intercollegiate Athletic Association was held last night at New York. The charges of professionalism brought against Mr. John V. Crum of Iowa State University were dismissed and he was declared to be an amateur in good and regular standing. Another resolution that was passed unani- mously was: “That we deem it extremely unfortunate that the universities of Great Britain have seen tit to decline the chal- lenge of this association, and be it hereby resolved, that the executive committee ex- presses its thanks to its members for their kindness in contributing to the big success of i twentieth games of the I. C. A. A. Mr. Kendrick of the University of Penn- sylvania said: “There could be nothing clearer than that we, the representatives of the Intercollegiate Athletes of Ame! in our challenge to the Englishmen absolutely tendered a challenge to the athletes cf Great Britain, and these athletes to be chosen ‘by the representatives of Oxford and Cambridge Universities. Their answer to us by cahle is enigmatic, as they say that they prefer a contest between their colleges and those of Yale and Harvard. Our idea was to have an international in- tercollegiate contest, but, as the English- men have promised us that an explanatory letter is on its way, probably we may be better informed toward the end of the week.” - Base Ball Notes, Pitcher Mark Baldwin has received an offer to sign with Rochester of the Eastern League, and the Pottsville club has granted him his release after today’s game. The Washington management has been justly complaining of those persons who have tried to stir up disaffection in the club. The most notable case of the kind is the persistent and conspicuous hostility shown toward Joyce. No opportunity has been lost to discredit him with the public. Joyce was unable to play yesterday, the damp weather affecting his leg. Thereupon the report was circulated that he was afraid to face the pitching of the left-handed twirlér, Breitenstein. As a matter of fact, Joyce knew at 11 o’clock in the morning that Breitenstein would not pitch. Few be- lieve that Scrappy is afraid of any pitcher. Washington has lost good players before by the nagging of unfriendly critics. Frank Ward was rendered almost useless to the Washingtons last year by the same cause. He was charged with errors unjustly and Toasted at every opportunity. Donovan was driven away in 1892 in the same way. He was not deemed good enough, but was made captain when he went to Pittsburg. Mr. Wagner let him go with regret, but recognized that his useful- ness here was gone. Campbeil hesitated about returning to the umpire’s staff, knowing how he was likely to be roasted by defeated clubs, but Presi- dent Young told him to go ahead and he would keep the place for him, for he has confidence in his judgment. President Robison of the Cleveland club said last night that he had just refused an offer of $10,000 in cash for the releases of Pitcher Young and Second Baseman eae He said dee the chicas club had ECZEMA fri: of this disease.

The Shamrocks defeated the Blakes Mcnday in an exciting extra-inning game by 15 to 12, at Capitol Park, in the pres- ence of a large crowd. The features of the game were the battery work of Moran and Powell and the fielding of Hughes and Dougherty. The, Credentials defeated the Census base ball team by 14 to 12.

Stevens House on Capitol Hill Now Being Demolished. One of the historic old houses of Capitol Hill is now being demolished to make way for a handsome modern residence, which is to be erected upon the site. Peo- ple passing along B street between Ist street and New Jersey avenue southeast have noticed for years an ancient resi- dence on the south side of the street, which has been one of the landmarks. The oldest inhabitant when asked about it would say it was formerly the home of Thad. Stevens, and thereupon the house assumed renewed interest in the eyes of many. In later years it was the residence of Mrs. Coyle. A project was on foot at one time to pur- chase the house with money contributed by colored people and to make it a memorial to the regard which the colored race enter- tains for the memory of Thad. Stevens. Ex-Senator Bruce and other colored men of note were interested in the proposition, but the scheme was finally abandoned. The property was recently purchased by Dr. T, F. Mallon, who will build upon the lot when the old house is removed. Lardepsia would be a more ap- propriate name for that common cause of suf- fering—dyspepsia—be- cause most cases of dys- pepsia can be traced to food cooked with lard.
