Closing Exercises of the Theological Semianary—Cases Before the Police Court — Other Notes. oldest and best-known citizens, died at his home at the Alexandria House yesterday afternoon. Mr. McKenzie had been ill with a complication of disemses for some weeks past. Mr. McKenzie was in the eighty- fifth year of his age, and, being a fiative Alexandrian, has always been very promi- netly identified with its history. He serv- ed in the Congress of the United States in 1869, and during the war was a Unionist. He ran for state senate in 1875, but was defeated by H O. Claughton, now a promi- nent member of the Washington bar. He was at one time prominently spoken of as a Postmaster General under the Garfleld administration, and was a personal friend of the late James G. Blaine. About fifteen years ago Mr. McKenzie was postmaster of Alexandria. He was also the organizer of the Loudcun and Hampshire railroad, now the W. and O. division of the Southern railway, and was president of the road for a number of years. He leaves no near relatives, but it is said he left a will, in which all of his property will go to the chil- dren ef the Rev. Mr. Judkin, who resides in Danville, Va. Mr. Judkin married a niece, and he will be here today to make arrangements for the funeral services. Of late years he had taken no active interest in politics, but, it is said, voted the demo- cratic ticket in the last municipal election. The familiar form of “Mr. Mc.," as he was popularly known, will be missed by Alex- andrians young and old, and particularly the youngsters, of whom he was very fond. Cases in Court. "Squire Thompson officiated in the mayor's court this morning in the absence of Mayor Strauss and disposed of the following cases: Charles Lee, charged with drunk and dis- orderly conduct, was fined $1. Ida Free- man,charged with escaping from the work house, was sent back. Aaron Jackson, charged with burglarizing the store of M. S. Lee,was sent on to the grand jury. Alice Kitts, charged with maintaining a nuisance, was dismissed. Jordan Carter, charged with stealing money from Elizabeth Car- ter, was sent to jail for thirty days. Sent to the Grand Jury. Tuesday night last the Store of Mr. M. S. Lee, on North Pitt street, was entered by thieves and a lot of plunder taken off. Two small colored boys were arrested for the theft, and on information secured from them Officers Young and Beach searched the house of Aaron Jackson yesterday af- ternoon and found a lot of flour, meal, meat, cigars, tobacco, cigarettes,’ honey, Jelly, etc., which Mr. Lee identified as his property. Jackson was sent on to the grand jury for trial. e The Bundle of Bloody Clothes. Scme sensational writers in the local Papers have been reporting for the past few days that the body cf an unknown woman was in all probability resting in the bottom of the reservoir from which Alex- endria draws its water supply. This morn- ing a colored woman*named Martha Wash- ington was brought to the station house and, though shag ctused to claim the bun- dle of clothes fund on Shuter's Hill, the police have every reason to believe that they are her property. Ready to Preach. The ordination exercises which close the firals of the session of 1894-95 of the Vir- ginia Theological Seminary took place in the chapel on Seminary Hill at 11 o'clock yesterday morning and were conducted by Bishops Whittle, Randolph Newton and Peterkin, and were most impressive. The following men were ordained to priests’ orders: Rev. Robert Karr, Rev. Wilson P. Chrisman, Rev. Robert S. Coupland, Rey. Edward W. Cowling, Rev. Andrew G, Grin- nan, Rev. John D. La Mothe, Rey. Thomas Semmes, Rev. H. S. Simmerman. The fol- lowing received deacons’ orders: Messrs. Archer Boogher, Mortimer G. Cassell, Clay- ton A. Chrisman, Charles S. Davidson, James J. D. Hall, Henry F. Gilman, Hugh McDonald Martin, Howard Otis Lead, Rob- ert W. Patton, John G. Scott, Mason W. Stanton, Edward A. Temple. The chapel was filied to overflowing with the relatives and friends of the young mea who are now starting out in the world. The beautiful service of the Protestant Episco- pul Church was read in a most impressive manner, and the Rev. Mr. Goodwin of Rich- mond preached the ordination sermon, which was an eloquent effort, making a deep and lasting impression on his hearers, as he told them of the world and the work that they would have to encounter. He directed them very fully as to the manner in which they should proceed; that they should let their lives show the word of God as much as their teaching. The holy com- munion was administered to the newly or- dained priests and deacons, and the bless- ing was pronounced by Right Rev. F. M. Whittle of the diocese of Virginia. Most of the students will leave for their homes and fields of labor tonight and tomorrow. Notes. Capt. P. B. Hooe, who has been qulta sick, 1s some little better.

These gen- tlemen are all connected with the Virginia Glass Works, which will close down this evening for the summer.

Lewis McKenzie, one of Alexandria's THE EVENING STAR, WHOLESALE PRODUCE MARKET. Generally Lower Prices and Abund- mtly Supplied Market. Throughout the local wholesale produce market there is today a general shrinkage in prices. This is due not to any decrease in the demand, but entirely to the in- creasing yield of the various products. Hence, the slight decline in prices is but one naturally to be expected at this time. The market is abundantly well supplied, and an active demand throughout gives it a firmness as encouraging as it is profita- ble. In beef and other meats prices are about as quoted a week ago today. Butter is dull, with no noticeable change in prices, and eggs are not only dull, but also of in- ferior stock. Vegetables and fruits are ar- riving in rapidly increasing quantities, and the quality of the products are indicative of a great yield and unusually fine stock. There is quite a shrinkage noticed in fine butter, due to the long dry, hot spell in the producing districts in the west. The qual- ity shows more irregularity, and imitations are unusually dull and weak. In fact, the trade is dull throughout, although prices are well sustained. Dealers have been hold- ing off, anticipating lower prices, but they now appear to realize that they have mis- calculated. There is no radical change in prices, although it is not improbable that they will rise after the first of the month, unless’the drought in the west is broken. Today 19% cents a pound are asked for fancy Elgin creamery and other western extras. Choice, 18; firsts, 17; seconds, 15; fancy creamery print, 23 to 25; dairy print, 16 to 18, and Maryland and Virginia print, 14 to 16; western dairy, best, 12 to 13, and good, 9 to 10; Maryland and Virginia cream- ery, 16 to 17, and good to prime, 11 to 13; bakers’ stock, 12% to 14. Cheese is much firmer this week, large being quoted at 10 cents a pound; flats, 10%, and ponys, from 10 to 11. Eggs a week ago foday were 13% cents adozen. Today they are just a cent lower. ‘They are dull and weak, badly heated and of poor quality. Poultry is lower generally today. The demand Is still large, and the supply, while not extraordinarily large, is amply suffi- clent. Live winter chickens are quoted at from 12 to 15; spring stock, 15 to 18; old stock, 5 to 9; ducks, 3 to 10, and geese, 6 to 8. A noticeable increase in the yleld of voze- tables and fruits is responsible today for generally lower prices. Cucumbers, 50 cents $1.25 a box; kale, 20 to 35 cents a_ barrel; peas, $1.5 to $2 a barrel; beans, 75 cents to $1 a box; as- paragus, 50 cents to $1 a dozen; lettuce, $1.50 to $2 a barrel; new Irish potatoes, $1.50 to $3.75 a barrel; Florida tomatoes, $1 to $1.50 a crate; cabbage, 50 cents to $1 a bar- rel; beets, $1_to $2.50 per 100 bunches, tur- nips, 60 to 65 cents a barrel; apples, $2 to $6 a barrel; California oranges, $3.50 to $4; eerery $3 to $4 a box, and Valencia, H 0 $4.50 a case; strawberries, 5 to 7 cenis = quart; whortleberries, 6 to cherries, 4 to 6; raspberries, red, 10 to 12; black, ¢ to 8; blackberries, 10 to 15; watermelons, $15 to $20 per 100; peaches, $2 to $3 a box, and 75 cents to $1_a basket. Beef and other meats are practically as last quoted, 2% to 5% cenis a pound for live cattle; sheep, 3 to 3'3; lambs, 33% to 4, and spring lambs, 6 to cows with calves, $20 to $40 each; calves, 3 to 6 cents a pound; dressed calves, 5 to 9; sheep, 4 to 6; country sugar- cured hams, 9 to 11. ——._—_ .

Safe-Blowing Case Ready for Defense Testimony. The trial of Charles Auffort and Edward Desmond, the alleged safe blowers, was adjourned yesterday afternoon until Mon- day morning, when the defense will call their witnesses to the stand. In explaining the theory of the defense to the jury yes- terday afternoon, Mr. Lipscomb stated that they would expect to show that Billy Wil- Hams was really the head of a gang of crooks, who made their headquarters at Jackson City, and that Dempsey and Jack Bolan, the pugilists, were his pals. The defense would not deny that the office of the Washington Steamboat Company had been robbed at the time and in the manner described by the government, nor would they deny that Willlams was present and participated in the robbery. But they would deny most emphatically that either Auffort or Desmond participated in the robbery. Williams’ confessions, said Mr. Lipscomb, were the result of an artful dodge concocted by Williams in the quiet- ude of the jail to save himself from the penitentiary.

Mr. Geo. W. Choate today met with an accident? which may prove serious. Mr. Choate was about entering the elevator on the third floor of the Kellogg building and the elevator boy started downward just as he was stepping in, causing him to pitch forward in such manner as to almost break his left leg. Mr. Choate managed to reach his place of business, but later the leg caused such pain that he was conveyed to his home, 310 Indiana avenue. —— Funeral of Col. Denver. The funeral of the late Col.

You can buy a “Baby Grand’”’ Graphophone for $75 The first I noticed that my baby had anything the matter with her was that whenever the nurse would change her she would cry. After the nurse left I noticed how very red she was. I spoke of it to the doctor, and he told me to use zinc ojnt- ment, but it did not do her any good. In a short time Eczema broke out on her head, spread to her eyebrows, breast and back, but the doctor's reme- dies did not seem to have any effect. I thought I would try your CUTICURA REMEDIES, as I had lost one child with the Eczema before I had heard of them. I am glad to say your CUTICURA REM- EDIES worked wonders with my baby. Three days after I commenced using them I saw a change. The doctor was surprised. I then told him what I was using. She was only three weeks old when Eczema broke out, and when she was eight weeks old she was entirely cured by CUTICURA. She ts now fifteen months old and has a perfect skin; portrait inclosed.

He says: “I had two severe attacks of inflamma- tory rheumatism. I tried three of our home physicians, but realized scarcely any relief. I took medicines faithfully, but was unable to see any improvement. I then visited a specialist, paid him $50, but he did me no good. I was then ad- vised to take Hood's Sarsaparilla. I did so and before I stopped I had taken 15 bot- tles, a bottle Just lasting me one month, as I tock it very regularly, three times a day at meal times. Ever since I took Hood's Sarsaparilla I have been entirely free from rheumatism.” Hood’s Sarsaparilla Is the Only True Blood Purifier This is why it cures even when all other medicines fall.
