Cc. M. Loef- fler, who removed from the city, and the present action is meeting the approval of every one connected with the Light In- fantry Corps. Mr. Sloan has been an offi- cer of the corps, and as such was extreme- ly popular in the past, and if he accepts the tender of the captaincy of the company it will be a matter ef gratification to the whole command. Another Bottle Case. In the case of Merrmann & Son against Wm. H. Brinkley,an Anacostia groceryman, in which damages in the sum of $50 were claimed because of an alleged retention of bottles claimed by the plaintiffs, the jury was unable to agree and was discharged. The case was tried before Justice of the Peace O'Donnell, having been transferred from Justice Smith of Anacostia. Mr. Brinkley insisted that he had received the bottles in exchange for others belonging to him, and that such exchange was the cus- tom when he exchanged them, about three years ago. The case will probably be tried again in a few days. ee $5.00 Weekly Seashore Excur- 85.00 sions via Pennsylvanin Railroad.

CECILIA'S : ACADEMY |AFFAIRS IN ALEXANDRIA Interesting Concert Day Exercises and Dis: tribution of Preminms ‘Little Folks Acquit Themselves Credit- ably—An Exhibition of School Work. The annual commencement of St. Cecilia’s Academy will not take place until next Tuesday, but the closing exercises of the junior and minim department were held at St. Peter’s lecture hall last evening at 4 o'clock. Although none but the younger pupils participated in the performance, they acquitted themselves so creditably that the program was very entertaining. The lead- ing numbers were the pantomime by the intermediate class, representing a ‘Letter scene,” which was really panoramic in ef- fect; the “Ring Drill” by twenty-five pretty little juniors, clad in red and gold, and b ing rings of the same colors, and the rhythmic “Fan Drill” by twenty-six little cnes, who flourished their tiny fans and ex- ecuted numberless evolutions with wonder- ful grace and precision. The remainder of j the program was as follows: “Le Chant du Bivouac” (Berg), Misses M. Madigan, K. Eckloff, L. Gloyd and L. Habercom; choruses by the minim and junior vocal classes; a quartet, “La Gazelle,” by Misses B. Rogers,D. Diggins, M. Nesline, J. Rostet- ter; a trio, “The Wanderer’s Night Song” (Rubenstein), by Misses L. Habercom, E. Anderson and M. Watson; “Grand March” (Wallenhaupt), by Misses H. Sargent, M. Watson, K. Eckloff and L. Slattery; “La Filense” (Lasse), by Misses J. Robertson, M. Gaul, Y. Pope, L. Vanriswick, D. Wil- liams and M. Watson; “Galop” (Streabog), by Misses M. Perrott, M. Maloney, K. Cook, E. Moran, B. Hazen and A. Agnew. Others who took part in the musical pro- gram were Misses L. Heil, A. Beuchert, F. Touhey, S. Tiffany, S. McDonald, E. Hazen and M. Morgan.

Exhibition of School Work. There is in the academy pariors, 601 East Capitol street, a fine display of paint- ings, drawings, sewing and class work, which will be on exhibition until June 20. Among the specimens of plain sewing are several dresses, skirts, waists, neat darns and patches and numberless aprons, all made entirely by the nimble fingers of lit- tle girls of the junior and intermediate departments. Work of special excellence was done by Misses F. Touhey, M. Blaine, H. McKenna, M. McCormick, C. Donohoe, G. Higgins, K. Maley, M. Mullen, R. Cum- mins, Tola and Esther Fitzgerald. Misses M. McCormick and M. Eckloff deserve special mention in map drawing. On entering the large parlor the first object that meets the eye is a beautiful olf painting of St. Cecilia, who, with her fingers pressing the mystic keys of her crgan, seems to fill the room with un- heard melodies. Two crayons—“The Chris- tian Graces,” by M‘ss Loreto Jennings, and “The Sacred Heart,” by Miss Mary R. MeCormick—deservedly occupy a prominent position, Noteworthy among the oil exhibits are a long panel of violets by Miss Edith Hutchinson, a landscape by Miss Frances England, a cluster of roses by Miss Mary R. MeCormick, a marine scene by Miss E. Habercom and a panel. picture of storks by Miss M. Miller. Misses M. Hazen and M. Miller have several well-executed stud- ies in water colors. Miss Katie Ahern’s numerous specimens of Le Croix china painting prove that to far more than ordi- tary talent she has added the still rarer gift of persevering devotedness to art. On several other pieces of beautifully decorated china are the names of Misses C. Smith, R. Repetti, R. McDonald and M. Miller. One entire wall is covered with pencilings, showing varied degrees of talent and skill. The best work of this kind bears the names Lena Gloyd, Ollie Greene, Susie McDonald, Mary S| and Margaret Keane. Examination. An examination for the position of junior assistant surgeon at the Emergency Hos pital will be held at the hospital June 1 ‘The vacancy will be vccasioned by the ex- piration of the term of Chief Surgeon Church, which wil occur June 30.

THE EVENING STAR, THURSDAY, JUNE 13, 189s-TWELVE PAGES. ‘Many Local Notes of Interest to Residents and Others. A Cake Walk Last Night—Cases Be- fore the Mayor—A Tramp Injured. About three hundred people went to Ar- mory Hall last night to witness an old- fashioned cake walk, under the auspices of the Fern Leaf Club, the leading colored organization of the city. It was given solely for the amusement of the white pop- ulation and was much enjoyed. The first prize, a pyramid cake, was awarded to Charles Harsh and Edna Phillips; the sec- ond, a cane, to Howard Skelton, and um- brella to Matilda Lucas; third, a $5 gold piece, to William Dogan and Roberta Cook. The walking of the couples was particu- larly interesting and amusing. Police Court. There were but two cases, and they of minor importance, before Mayor Strauss in the police court this morning. Samuel Ten- nyson, charged with being drunk in the street, was fined $5 or fifteen days in jail. Harry Day, a small calored boy, charged with being disorderly in the market build- ing, was dismissed with a reprimand. Slightly Injured. Frank Baker, a tramp, was slightly hurt in the Southern railway freight yards last night by being struck by a passing freight train. He was taken to the Alexandria In- firmary, where his wounds received medical attention, and today he was all right again and able to proceed on his way. Off for the Penitentiary. Sheriff W.T. Summers of Loudoun county passed through this city this morning with a negro prisoner named Dennis Clark, who had been sentenced by the Loudoun county court to serve two years and six months in the penitentiary at Richmond for break- ing into the store of F. M. Fadeley at Farmwell, Va. Daughters of the Confederacy. The Mary C. Lee Division of the National Daughters of the Confederacy held a meet- ing last night at the residence of Mrs. G. Wm. Ramsay, but owing to the fact that there was not a quorum present no bus- iness could be transacted. Notes. E. D. Bailey delivered an address on home missions at the Second Presbyterian Church last night to a fairly large audi- ence. The Alexandria Union Mission will, it is said, purchase a large tent and hold “tent meetings” during the summer. The closing exercises of Mrs. Ewing's school will be held tonight at 8 o'clock. Dr. W. K. Millhollen has gone to Upper- ville, Va., for the summer. Three hundred and sixty dog licenses had been issued by the auditor up to last night. The building committee of the M. E. Churth will have a meeting Monday night to discuss the “new church” question. A large number of Masons from Wash- ington attended the meeting of Andrew Jackson Lodge of Masons last night. After the meeting refreshments were served. The Mite Society of Trinity M. E. Church held an interesting meeting last night. A program of music and recitations was rendered and refreshments were served. ee POLICE PROMOTIONS. Much Interest in the Changes to Be Made. Under the appropriation which will be- eome available July 1 the police force will be entitled to eleven new officers, includ- ing one inspector and ten privates, five of each class. This will necessitate the pro- motion of a number of the present mem- bers of the force, and many of them are paying so much attention to this matter that they hardly have time to do police duty. Among the sergeants there is some lively wire pulling going on, for one of them is to be promoted to the inspector- ship, as none of the lieutenants are anxious or even desirous of getting the increase. Under the law promotions have to be made frem the ranks, and each lieutenant has been required to make a report upon the efficiency of his sergeants. This has been done, and rumor has it that Michael Byines, the popular sergeant of the sixth precinct, is to get the plum. Although this rumor has been in circulation a number of days and it is generally regarded as hav- ing some foundation, the other sergeants who are interested in the promotion are still doing their best to get the desirable position. The promotion of a sergeant to the in- spectorship means a promotion from the ranks to fill the vacancy, and this, to- gether with the five new second-class places, will leave six promotions from the first to the second class, and in these pro- rctions merit as well as length of service is considered. ———— Daugerous Darkness. ~ To the Editor of The Evening Star: Permit me to call attention through your columns to a dangerous cond'tion of things that I chanced to discover last evening while using New Jersey averue northwest as a thoroughfare. It was, as all are aware, a very dark night, owing to the heavy clouds and the falling rain, and I was amazed to find myself suddenly in perfect blackness, in a neighborhood, which, from the character of some of its residents, very much needed illumination. A little investi- gation showed that there was not a street lamp lighted from R street to Florida ave- nue and from 4th street to 7th. This lef: an area of nine blocks entirely unprotect- ed. It may have heen a measure of econ- omy or it may have been due to the unre- liability of the lamplighter, but from what- ever cause it was a most decided nuisance on aright when every possible ray of light was needed to enable a pedestrian to travel without needing a life preserver. Perhaps the gas company or the Commissioners can {Illuminate the matter if they can’t illuminate the streets. LIGHT. —-—__ Anniversary Celebration. Union Tent, No. 87, Independent Order of Rechabites, held an-open meeting at their hall, 314 Sth street northwest, last evening, the occasion being the sixteenth anni- versary of the tent.

There was an exciting scene in the “Di- vision” last night about 11:30 o'clock, when two men were seen on the house of a woman named Lewis, on C street. They made an effort te force open the trap door, and It is suppesed that they were bent upon robber: The proprietress of the house, it is said, keeps her jewelry and yaluables on the top floor, and this was probably known to the burglars. The police responded to the distress call, but the men escaped. —————— Steamer Macalester to Marshall Hall and Indian Head, Friday and Saturday even- Ings, at 6:30 o’elock.—Advt. TWO RAILROADS SOLD The Philadelphia Syuitidate Disposes of Its Belt and Eokington Stock. Both Lines Are Experted to Be Used in Connection Witly the Proposed Electric Line to Baltimore. The Philadelphia street railway syndi- cate, composed of W. L.eEIkins, P. A. B. Widener and Thomas Dolan and others, which bought the controlling interests in the Belt line and the Eckington and Sol- diers’ Heme railroads here in 1898, have sold out their holdings in the roads to the Baltimore capitalists whose former sub- stantial interests in the properties have been represented by President Newbold. The latter gentlemen are said to be largely interested in the building of the proposed Boulevard electric line between this city and Baltimore, for whieh contracts for its complete construction before June 1, 189%, are about to be awarded, and it is stated that they bought the controlling stock of the Belt and Eckington companies in order to provide plentiful means of communica- tion with every part of Washington when the Boulevard road is finished. It is said that the Philadelphia syndicate received something over a million dollars for the stock disposed of, but it is believed in well-informed circles that no actual money changed hands, as it is well under- stood that Messrs. Widener, Dolan and Elkins are largely interested in the Boule- vard enterprise. This ts all the more ap- parent, from the fact that Mr. W. Kesley Schoepf, who has represented the Phila- delphia interests as vice president and general manager of the Eckington and Belt systems, holds the same important positions with the Washington and Mary- land Railroad Company, which is about to construct the Boulevard electric line to Baltimore. ————— BILLY WILLIAMS’ CONFESSION. He Will Soon Repeat It on the Wit- Mess Stand. As soon as the sugar trust cases are disposed of in the Criminal Court the case of the men under arrest for the safe-blow- ing job at the Alexandria Ferry Com- pany’s wharf will be called, and then “Billy” Williams will be put on the stand and given an opportunity to tell the court and jury the facts related in his confes- sion. Charles, alias “Buck,” Auffort and Eddie Desmond will be placed on trial, while the fugitive known as Jack Dempsey will probably read the evidence in the newspapers, but will not be here to héar what is said unless there is some good detective work done, Until a few days ago “Jack” Dempsey’s Identity was not known, and then Detective Horne got from the Grannon detective agency in Cincinnati a picture, which was identified by “Billy” Williams as a photo- graph of the much-wanted fugitive. “Jack” Dempsey was the name given the man by the local police, in order to get an indict- ment against him. The man is known age Charles Rodgers, alias Connolly, alias Coleman and a score of other names. He .ds about forty-five years old and is known: as an all-around burglar and thief. In 1883 he served a term in Tennessee for-burglary, and eight years later he was sent'to prison in Ohio. Upon receipt of this information the po- lice communicated with the police of other places and requested *the arrest of the fugitive. The most interesting develop- ment in the case recently is the informa- tion from near Orange, Va., to the effect that “Buck” Auffort, sone of the alleged safe blowers, had charged several -gold pieces in that section soon after the safe was blown and robbediof several hundred dollars, including some gold coin. When the case is tried severalywitnesses will be brought from Virginia. So far as. is known, the police have done nothing whatever im regard to that part of “Billy” Williams’. confession relating to the plot to assassinate Sergt. Daley. — EXCURSIONS.
