Mrs. Lamont and her daughters are al- ready domiciled in their pretty cottage overlooking the bay at Sorrento, Me. Sec- retary Lamont is expected to make them frequent visits. With Mr. Whitney and family at Bar Harbor, the Lamont family are feeling particularly happy over their lo- cation for the summer. Mr, and Mrs. Robert Pendleton Bowler and Mr. and Mrs. Townsend gave dinners last night at Bar Harbor. Mr. Le Ghait, Mavroyeni Bey, Mr. Rodgers, Miss Belknap and Miss Wallack were among the guests. The four or five stalwart members of the British embassy, who are taking care of her majesty’s interests in the United States at thelr summer quarters in Newport, are really doing a great work for the lelsure- loving classes there. They are so much in demand as dinner guests they have already been dubbed “The Hungry Brigade.” Where all the men of wealth and letsure belonging to the Newport families are, it is hard to say, but that they are not there is very evident, and the appearance of a new man, an eligible, {s enough to throw all of Belle- vue avenue in hysterics of delight. Dr. and Mrs. G. C. Samson are visiting Rev. F. F. Samson of Portland, Me. Mr. Royal Phelps Carroll has received news of the sudden death in Scotland on Monday of his brother, Mr. John Lee Car- roll, jr., son of ex-Gov. Carroll of Mary- land. Mr. and Mrs. Carroll, who had just arrived for the season, left at once for Ellicott City and the family residence, Dougheran Manor. The Carrolls had ar- ranged for a very enjoyable season at Newport and they were to give many social entertainments. Mr. Carroll's crack sloop yacht Navahoe will presumably not be entered for the seuson’s races on account of the family affliction. Prof. and Mrs. H. L. Hodgkins and their little boys are spending the early sum- mer in the mountains of Virginia. Dr. A. G. Wilkinson and daughter, Miss Lucille Wilkinson, and Prof. Montague and family are on the Maine coast. Mrs. E. Rosenthal and daughter, Mrs. J. Oettinger of Wilson, N. C., are at Takoma Park for the summer. Miss Maggie Kline of Columbus, Ohio, is visiting her uncle and aunt, ex-Representa- live Richards and wife, 125 B street south- east. Miss Rose Lusby has gone to York, Pa., to spend the summer. Mrs. M. D. Breneman is at Cape May. Mr. Rufus Saxten is now at Pittsfield, Mass. Mrs. N. H. Bowman is at Atlantic. City. Controller Bowler has been the guest of Assistant Secretary Hamiin the past week, at Marion, Mass. Mrs. Margaret E. Baher of Washington is at Catoumas, on the beach below Gray Gables. About fifty members of Hamline M. E. Church surprised their pastor, Rev. E. 8. Todd, D.D., by calling upon him last night at his summer home, the Eckington Hotel. Refreshments, music and addresses—all on the lawn—contributed to a very pleasant evening. Miss Therese Mildred Slicer left this morning for Pittsburg, where she will be the guest of her aunt, Miss Jennie Ralston. Mrs. Cornelius T. Beit is at Atlantic City with a party of friends. Mr. Belt will join his wife the early part of August, when they will -go-rorth on an extended trip. Mrs. Beit will not return home until the Tate. fall. Mrs. M. Blumenfeld and son Raymond are in Chicago, and will later on visit Mil- waukee and Watertown, Wis. Mrs. J. D. Stein and son of Marshall, Texas, are visiting her mother, Mrs. B. Hechinger, at No. 1328 7th street north- west, where she will be pleased to see her friends. Mrs. W. C. O'Meara and daughter, Miss Clara O'Meara, are at Colton-on-the-Poto- mac. Mr. and Mrs. W. E. Dougherty, Miss Rosalie A. Healy, Miss Carrie H. Dough- erty and Mr. E. Plowden Dougherty are at Blue Mountain, Md. Mrs. Wm. M. Offutt of Brooklyn, N. Y., is spending a few days with Miss Gilbert of 30th street northwest. Mrs. A. Y. Gra; and little daughter Ruth will spend several weeks in Pleasant Val- ley, Washington county, Ma. Mr. and Mrs. Howison, Miss Davis, Miss- es Goodchild, Miss Marion and Miss Bos- well, and Messrs. Bright, Handy and Steve Howison left Saturday for a two weeks’ stay at Shellfield-on-the-Potomac. Miss Emilie C. Moreii of Carlin’s Springs, Va., ts visiting the family of Wm, A. Whit- son at their home in Mt. Pleasant. On Tuesday evening the residence of Miss Mollie Flynn, 211 10th street north- east, was the scene of a gay and festive gathering, given in honor of her guest, Miss Edith Hope of Baltimore. The man- sior and spacious grounds were literally hidden beneath massive palms and huge vases of cut flowers, while the gleam of in- numerable Chinese lanterns, lighted by minute incandescent lamps, lent an added attraction to the scene. The guests were pleasantly entertained during the evening by vocal numbers by Miss Donelly, Miss Agnes Flynn and Mr. Johnson; recitations by Mr. Kauffman, and instrumental music by Mr. Rob Weaver, Mr. Fred. Weaver, Mr. Otto DeMoll and Miss Flynn. Refresh- ments were served in a mammoth pavilion, erected on the lawn, which had the ap- pearance of a miniature orange grove, small trees filled with the golden fruit be- ing on all sides. Among those present were Mr. and Mrs. Flynn, Mr. and Mrs. Thomas, Misses Edith Hope, Mollie Flynn, Crecks, Donelly, Kernan, Hutchinson, Morris, Agnes Flynn and Bertha Yoder, Messrs. Rob Weaver, Fred. Weaver, James Smith, Charles Morris, Ed. Hutchinson, Otto DeMoll, James ‘Johnson, © Herbert Kauffman and Ray Riordan. ——__ Shot in Self-Defense. John Collins, the negro on trial for the murder of Frederick Ohl, the Princeton College stvdent, and the shooting with murderous intent of Garret Cochran, went on the witness stand yesterday. Accord- ing to his version of the affair, he was desperately assaulted by the students be- fore he fired at them. They grabbed him by the ears and choked him and beat him with palings. He was on the floor and being choked when he fired the second and third times. He was falling when he fired first, and the man who was shot then was pulling him backward at the time. The cross-examination failed to shake his tes- timony. — Almost Escaped. The body of Laura Thomas, who was murdered near Raleigh and thrown from a boat while fishing, by her husband, last Friday, has been recovered. The woman's neck was broken and her head and face horribly vrulsed and cut. Gabriel Thomas was arrested soon after the commission of the crime, and shortly after he was lodged in jail. It has been found that he and two burglars confined with him had secured a file and had almost cut through the bars of their call when discovered. The police are confident they can find the person who fur- nished the prisoners with the file. All the parties implicated are colored. ———~+0e+___ Powerful Electric Freight Motor. All possible question of the ability of electric locomotive No. 1 of the Baltimore and Ohio road to pull the heaviest trains through tae belt line tunnel at Baltimore was disposed of yesterday. With the tre- mendous Ivad of twenty-six freight cars, all laden to their utmost, and two large lo- comotives, the electric monster pulled through the tunnel with not nearly ail power on.

Most of the When tho procession moved toward the prison rail in the Police Court this morning Arthur Brooks, the young sport from New Yerk, was arraigned as a suspicious person. He told the court that the races had ac- complished his downfall. “I have been here about two weeks,” he said, ‘‘and my parents don’t know where I am.” When questioned, he told of his visits to the race tracks, where he bet his money. He got hard up and then made out the worthless check and attempted to pass it on Mr. Bear, one of the proprietors of the Nationai Hotel. Detectives Carter and Quinlan were in court to tell of the arrest, and Mr. Bear was there to tell of the presentation of the check “I'm afraid the races are responsible for yeur conduct,” said the judge. “You will have to give bond in the sum of 3200 or gO down for ninety days.” Back Again. Thos. Smith, a colored dealer in rags, bones and old iron, was in the procession yestery day, and he appeared again today. Tom is about thirty-five years old, and his trouble resulted from an overdose of spirits, such @s are poured from bottles in cheap drink- ing places. When he was in court yester- day he was not held, but there were 80 many bailiffs watching him, as he sup- posed, that he faced the whole crowd, and Proved that somebody was not paying strict attention to duty. He had been arrested Tuesday night near ith and N streets, where Policeman Car- son found him sleeping on the sidewalk. The pavement was a little hard for him, but then that made no difference in the world to him, for he was in a condition that made him care for nothing. “Smith,” said the .clerk to the prisoner, “you are charged with obstructing the side- walk with your person. Are you guilty or not guilty?” “Guilty,” he answered. “The court fines you $5,” sald the clerk to him. Like the Last. John McMullin came next in the proces- sion, and the charge against him was sim- ilar to that against Tom Smith. He fol- lowed Smith's example by pleading guilty, and the usual fine was imposed. Policeman Carson also figured in this case, but he did not care to have John sent down, “He was only lying on the sidewalk,” said the policeman, “and I wish your honor would let him go. “Personal bonds,” said the court, and the man was released. John Brown, a pensioner, was zccused of frofanity, and William Cable, his (riend, Was an important witness against him. “We've been keeping bachelors’ hall to- ee ee Brown, “and he swears more o" “Had you been drinking?” “I don’t say I was drunk,” Brown an- swered, “but I bad taken a glass of beer.” ”” the judge told him, Eugene Kelly, whose appearance an4 con- duct indicated that his aim in life is not very high, was a member of the procession. He said he had been going from one place to another, but had never harmed any one. “I found him loafing about the streets late last night,” said an officer, “and ar- rested him. He has no home hi nor has he any visible means of support. “I don’t see why an American citizen going along peaceably should be arrested and locked up,” said Kelly. “If I had done anything wrong I would not complain.” “Do yeu intend to remain here?” ¢he judge asked him. “No, sir.” He was discharged. She Was Noisy. Alice Brown, a colored woman, who went dowa the river yesterday, was noisy on the boat when the wharf was reached and a policeman arrested her. “If I was noisy, I couldn't help it,” said Alice. “I was sick at my stomach, and somebody gave me a drink of whisky. What happened afterward I don’t know.” “Usual fine.” Patrick Conners was in trouble because he had been drinking. He was given thirty days in which to get sober. Acolored girl named Annie Brown was in court for cruelty to animals. She was not in the procession, because she had de- posited $5 collateral for her appearance. “This girl came out of the house yester- day and tossed a dog in the air,” said an officer. “When the dog struck the pavement its hip was broken or dislocated.” “It was nothing but an old tramp cur,"* said the girl's counsel, “and she had been ordered by her mistress to throw it out of the house.” ‘The girl had to pay a fine of $5 for the cruelty.
