THE. EVENING STAR, MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 16, 189s-TWELVE PAGES. ————————————— SUBURBAN NEWS ANACOSTIA, It has generally been supposed for some Ways past by the citizens of Anacostia that there is already practically a vacancy in the office of justice of the peace for Ana- costia, Justice Carroll W. Smith, who holds the commission, now being an inmate of St. Elizabeth's Asylum, but a letter received from him yesterday by his wife indicates that he does not intend to give up the posi- tion. without a struggle. In his communtca- tion Justice Smith states that he is about well, and expects to be released in a day or two, when he fully expects to resume his ‘duties as a magistrate. It is sald that some of those who were largely instrumental in having Mr. Smith committed to the asy- lum are now taking an active part in seek- ing to prevent the revocation of his com- mission and the appointment of his suc- cessor. Notwithstanding this, the friends of Messrs. Albert L. Richardson and Wil- Mam W. Fisher, who are warm though friendly competitors for the anticipated va- ‘cancy, will not abate their energies in this direction, as they believe that it will be impossible for the present incumbent to hold on to the place long.

She is now held at the sub- Btatiun to await a disposition of her cas Two of the female attaches of St. Hliza- bate Asylum were unfortunate enough to lose their pocket books, containing #4 aud $2, respectively, while at a church on Cap: tol Hill Saturday evening. They had taken seats in one gf the pews, in which a white man, a little@ater, alsg took a seat. ‘After performing their devotions the ladies left the pew and went to another part of the church, where they remained for a Jittle while before missing thelr pocket books. Both at once returned to the pew they had occupied, but upon reaching there found that the man had gone and that their purses had likewise disappeared. Considerable alarm was for a while felt fn Anacostia last night by the discovery of & huge volume of smoke In the direction of Fort Stanton. An examination revealed that some boys had set fire to a large pile of brush, and that there was no danger to te anticipated. Mr. Willigm Stamp, a farmer living near Bilver Hill, Md., is in considerable trouble ‘over the purchase of a cow made by him 4m Virginia a few days ago. The animal was supposed to be good-natured, but is Gow said to be so unruly that no one can ‘enter the pasture where she is kept with- pat incurring great danger of being at- acked.

At the conclusion of the artistic portion of the program refresh- ments were partaki of. and the balance of the evening spent in dancing.

Brooks tried Bettie Stack Saturday on the charge of being a lunatic and a pauper. The woman's relatives were present in force at the trial, and swore that it was only about four weeks ago that she began to show indications of insanity, and they tried to do everything that was Possible to comfort her. It is said, siace her incarceration in the jail, that some of her relatives treated her most inhumaneiy. It is alleged that she was tied to a tree for several days in the woods like a dog. ince she has been in jail her actions indi- cate that she has been subjected to cruel treatment. At first, upon the approach of any of the officials of the jail, she would attempt to hide by crouching in a corner or crawling under her bed. When some of the ladies of Marlboro’ went to see her she became quiet. Now she shows no fear upon the approach of eny one, and begins to eat and drink something. The manner in which she has been abused will, it is understood, be investigated by the grand jury when it meets in October. When Goy. Frank Brown appoints an election supervisor fur this county to fill the vacancy made by the resignation of Mr. Benj. D. Stephens, who is on the demo- cratic ticket, he will have only one name presented to him to act upon, and that will be Mr. Jerry Berry pf Queen Anne dis- trict, as he is the man settled upon by the politicians. The September sitting of the fficers of registration began here today and continues for four days.
