(SS - THE EVENING STAR, MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 9, 1895—TWELVE PAGES. SUBURBAN NEWS ANACOSTIA. The corner stone of the Campbell Me- morial (Baptist) Chapel at Fort Foote, Md., which is to be under the superintendence of Rev. H. T. Stever-son, pastor of the Ana- costia Baptist Church, was laid yesterday with appropriate ceremonies. The chapel, which is to be a very neat structure, has ‘been named in honor of Miss Campbell of Fort Foote, a devoted young Christian ‘worker, who lost her life by drowning while on a mission of mercy something over eighteen months ago. A collision between one of the Anacostia street cars and a train of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company was last night only averted at the Monroe street crossing by the presence of mind of the driver of the former, William Adams. There has been for a long time past an electric bell at this point, which begins ringing when a train is about half a mile east of the crossing and does not cease until the train is about as far ‘west; but most people in Anacostia seem to have become used to the ringing and pay tut Httle attention to it. About 9 o'clock the car Mr. Adams was driving approached the crossing quite rapidly while the train ‘was standing there, but, fortunately, the driver noticed it and succeeded in stopping his car before any damage had been in- filcted either on the car or any of his pas- sengers. It is understood that the Citizens’ Association will be asked at its next meet- ing to discuss the advisability of asking the B. and O. to place a watchman at this point. A iarge number of owners of dogs in Ana- costia and Hillsdale have been netified that -further neglect to take out a license for their pets will result in their being brought before the Police Court.

When the agricultural fair closed it-was supposed that racing in this section would close for the season, but Saturday the:-cit-. izens of the town and vicinity were treated to a trial of speed that laid in the shade anything seen at the exhibition. About two weeks ago a man who registered as Joseph Kirby took rooms at the Corcoran Hotel, and though apparently a little short of cash, proceeded to make himself yery agreeable to guests and visitors. About the dining hour Saturday Mr. Washington Danenhower, proprietor of the Fredonia Hotel at Washington, called at the Cor- coran for dinner, and at once recognized in Mr. Kirby a person who had for some time been a guest at his hotel, and who had sud- denly left without paying his bill. He im- mediately called on Mr. Kirby fora set- tlement, which was promised at a future time, but this did not sult Mr. Danenhower, and he threatened to have Kirby arrested, leaving the dining room for the purpose. As he passed out in the office Kirby sud- denly left by a side door, and, mounting a bicycle, which constituted the buik of his baggage, made a dash for the suburbs, going in the direction of the 7th street pike. A horse and buggy were hastily pro- cured, and in this the clerk of the hotel and a friend went in pursuit of the fugi- tive, who by this time had quite a start of them. The road taken by the wheelman was over the hills and valleys of Rock creek, aad persons living along the route state that certainly no such :ime was ever made before in that locality as ‘vas exhib- ited by the flying wheelman. His speed was so great that he was not overtaken until he had reached the District limits and was in the hands of the police. Mr. Danenhower, learning the course he had taken, boarded a train, leaving here at 2 p.m., and reached the city in time to in- form the officers, and be able to give Mr. Kirby a suitable reception upon his ar- rival. He stated that Kirby registered at the Fredonia as H. igsley. During his stay here Kirby made Himself very agree- able to several young gentlemen of the town, and had received @ promise ‘rom a number of them to spend the coming win- ter with him upon his cotton plantation in the far south. Saturday evening the invited guests for the winter came to the conclu- sion that it would be inconvenient for them to make the southern irip, —>___. CARLIN SPRINGS.

R. encampment at Louisville and reg- imental reunion in Iowa. Miss Jarvis of Washington, who has been spending the past few days with her friend, Mrs. Schaff, has returned home. The first walk of the newly organized pe- destrian club, which took place Saturday evening, attracted considerable attention, especially on account of the “reform” garb of the members—knickerbockers for the men and abbreviated skirts for the fairer sex. The destination—Munson’s Hill, about one and a half miles distant—was easily reuched and the return trip made without mishap. The evening was much enjoyed.

Dove, which was broken into and robbed of $500 Friday, was the same one on which an un- successful attempt was made several weeks ago. This is the third time in the past two years that Sheriff Dove has had his store robbed. A colored man is now serving his time in the penitentiary for the first of- fense. The scene of this robbery is at Leeland, a station on the P., W. and B. railroad, a few, miles below where two weeks ago two stores were robbed, as stated in The Star at the time. Sheriff Dove's residence is about 100 yards above the store, on a little hill, but he did not hear the nolse made by the explosion of the safe. The thieves first broke into a black- smith shop nearby and got tools sufli- cient to effect the entfance into the store, and the indications are that after ransack- ing the store and post office attached they concluded to blow open the safe. This was done with gunpowder. The report that was in circulation that the thieves had a wagon and carried it away loaded with merchan- dise is untrue. There were no goods stolen at all. Frequent robberies have occurred along the line of this railroad here lately and are supposed to be the work of an organized gang of thieves. This has been the largest haul they lave made yet. Sher- iff Dove is making every effort to appre- hend the thieves, as he is both’ personally and officially interested in their arrest. The county commissioners had a busy day at their last: meeting, as a good many of the public-spirited citizens were on hand to receive thelr little cash due them for services rendered to the welfare of Prince George’s coun: The following persons went home happy: W.

As to Baggage From Infected Ports and ns to Imported Animals. The Treasury Department has issued a clr- cular to medical officers of the marine hos- pital service, consular officers, collectors of customs, state and local quarantine officers, steamship companies and others concerned, stating that, on account of the officially reported prevalence of cholera in China and Japan, and in Honolulu, it is ordered “that all unlabeled baggage of steerage passen- gers, including hand baggage, and all labeled baggage of sald passengers, which, in the opinion of the quarantine officers, should be disinfected or redisinfected,” shall be disinfected as provided in the quarantine regulations, before being landed. This regulation will also apply to any other baggage which the quarantine offi- cers may suspect of beirfg infected. The acting secretary of the treasury has issued instructions to customs officials that hereafter no antmals shall be permitted to be entered at any port of the United States without the deposit by the importer, owner, consignee or agent of a sum sufficient to defray the expenses incident to their quar- antine, or the filing with the collector by the quarantine officers of a certificate to the effect that satisfactory arrangements have been made for the keeping of the ani- mals during the ninety days’ quarantine peried. Heretofore the department has ad- mitted cattle to entry, and much annoy- ance has resulted from there having been no provision made for their maintenance. Hereafter the animals will not be entered until such provision has been made. AUCTION SALES. THIS AFTERNOON. RATCLIFVE, SUTTON & CO., Aucts. TRUSTEES’ SALE OF LUABLE_ BUILDING LOT GN E.
