Burden, who is a graduate of the National and Froebel Normal Kin- dergarten Institutes of Mrs. and Miss Pol- lock of this city. This work is beautifully arranged in five folding albums. ——— Clock Run Down. A case was tried in the Police Court this wcrning which had fts origin last May. Josiah L. Kendrick was the defendant, on @ charge of larceny, and the testimony shcwed thet last spring he purchased a cleck and cr-ament from Robert Scowler, who makes a business of selling such ar- ticles on the instalment plan... ‘The clack and the ornament were worth abcut $i4, and Kendtick paid 50 cents down. Ho gave.Scqnler an,assumed name and a fictitious address, and told him to call once a menth fcr the balance, to be paid piecemeal. Scowler called at the ad- dress given, but failed to find his man un- til quite recently. Then it was found that the clock had been pawned a few days after It was bought. Kendrick was arrest- ed as soon as he could be located. In court tcday he put vp a very lame defense, and Judge Kimball lost little time in sending him down for three months. —— His Mental Condition. ‘Wednesday evening Detective Lacey ar- rested a young colored man, William WIIll- fams, employed at the Harrison Flats, on the charge of stealing a revolver, a pocket- book and a number of other afticles from, people in the house. Williams was locked up and held until the detective could recover some ofthe: lost: articles. When he is ar- raigned In the Police Court ke will probably be committed for an examination into his mental condition. Since kis arrest Williams has shown a tendency to epilepsy and has had several fits. The physician who attended him said that the medical-authoritles recognize epi- lepry as a defense in such cases, but, while he had read of hundreds of such cases among white men, this was the first time he had heard of epilepsy playing a part in the defense of a colored man. “That simply shows," said Detective La- cey, who is himself a colored man, “what progress our rac2 is making along all lines.” ——_—_ The Garbage Furnace Question. To the Eslitor of The Evening Star: The question of the destruction of gar- bege in th's city during these hot Sep- tember days !s a very vital one, and the article in Wednesday's Star from an eye- witness at Atlantic City {Is not reassuring to people who do not want ill odors to be multiplied among them.I learn that the gar- bage contractor is negotiating for the pur- chzse of ground on Rock creek, within two squares of Pennsylvania avenue. I write to ask whether there is any protection possl- ble for property owners in this thickly set- tled neighborhood? I: is surmised that a water front is necessary in case the crema- tcry falls to do the work expected of it properly, in which case the ground will be used for a dumping ground for garbage and dead animals—in which event the place will become an Intolerable nuisance. The place selected is doubtless very convenient for the garbage contractor, but surely other considerations should outweigh this in the mirds of our honorable Commissioners of the District. My neighbors and I have pro- tested against their approving this site for such a nuisance. If no satisfactory place can be found within the city limits, where there are few residents, the crematories should be located outs‘de those limits,where houses are not built up so closely,and where the lives of men, women and more particu- Jarly the numerous children in the neigh- borhood, will not be endangered.

The senatorial convention of the four- teenth senatorial district, composed of Alexandria city and county and Fairfax and Prince William counties, was called to order in the opera house shortly after ncon yesterday by Mr. J. M. Love, ckair- man of the democratic committee of Fair- fax county. In’ a few appropriate re- marks he nominated Mr. J. B. T. Thornton of Prince William for chairman, and Mr. Jas. E. Clements of Alexandria county for secretary. Mr. Leonard W. Marbury of this city then placed Capt. Geo. A. Mush- bach In nomination, referring to his past record as a legislator, a man and a citi- zen. He was followed by Mr. A. A. Lips- ecmb of Alexandria county, who seconded the nomination, not only for his high char- acter and undoubted ability, but also be- cause Capt. Mushbach had announced that he was in favor of Mr. John W. Daniel for the United States Senate. Mr. H. M. Owens of Prince William and Mr. F. W. Richardson of Fairfax also seconded the nomination, and moved that it be made by acclamation and a committee be appointed to wait upon Capt. Mushbach and notify him of his nomination. The committee re- turned in a few minutes, accompanied by the captain, who was greeted with ap- pleause. He thanked the convention for the corfidence they had reposed in him, and said it showed that the 50,000 people of this istrict were able to manage their own af- fairs without the aid of so-called news- pepers of foreign or domestic manuC:c- tyre, who indulged in sensational attacks upon people for the purpose of inflating ther circulation above the normal averige of 100, He had been asked why he nad not re- plied to the attacks made upon him by a Washington paper, and by a" domestic one, whose editor was not even a resident of this district. His vindication was the as- semblage of gentlemen who had just re- rfominated him for the state senate. He stated that to avoid any misunderstanding he would state that he intended voting for John W. Daniel for United States Senator. The convention then adjourned. ‘The renomination of Capt. Mushbach was a foregone conclusion, and but little inter- est was taken in the convention, not over a hundred spectators being in ihe opera house during the three-quarters of an hour which the session lasted. Farmers and Mechanie: The suit instituted against L. W. Estes, L. G. Estes, P. Bruce Anderson, Marlin F. Hatch, Thos. B. Keough, Alexander Gar- den, C. F. Manderson, Chas. C. Bedloe, Jo- seph R. Hawley, M. D. Birge and Wm. E. Judkins, reputed stockholders in the Farm- erg and Mechanics’ Fire Insurance Com- pany, will come up in the circuit court Mon- day. It is probable that Judge Nicol will enter a decree referring the matter to a commissioner to ascertain the amount of the indebtedness of the company. It is esti- mated that it will aniount to about 350,000, cn which judgments for $20,000 have been secured. The object of the chancery suit is to hold the alleged stockholders, named above, liable. The offer of a compromise made recently by the company was refused. Receiver E. B. Taylor will file his report, showing the amount of property turned over to him. The office furniture is about all there is in sight. A High Old Time. Two well-dressed young women came here from Washington last night and proceeded to fill up to the neck. About 10 o'clock they had gotten a sufficient quantity on board to induce them to give a free exhibition of themselves on Royal street, and, lifting their skirts they went through the “détible shuffle” and “high kick” for the edification of a curious crowd, which had collectad. Officer Arrington thought they ought to have hired a hall, so he locked them: up. They gave their names as Katie Hawiey and Bettie Patterson, and in the police court this morning they acknowledged they had taken more toddy than they intended, but had no recollection of what occurred last night. His honor taxed Katle $10 for her share in the performance, and Bettie got off with $5. Mr. Ben im Will Run. Mr.Charles Bendheim yesterday afternoon announced himself a candidate for re- ncmination for the house of delegates. This will make a three-cornered fight, Messrs. Louis C. Barley and Wm. H. May having already entered the. field. The fight will doubtless be a hot one, and the result is ,. -hard to predict: Mayor's Court. Mayor Thompson disposed of the follow- ing cases this morning: Katie Hawley and Bettie Patterson,white, charged with being drunk on the street, usirg profane language and indecent con- duct, were fined $10 and $5, respectively. Geo. McIntire, white, was fined $8 for being drunk, hugging Bettie Lucas, colored, on the street, and grossly insulting her. Emanuel Pines, an old colored man, was fined $2 for maintaining a nuisance. Notes. Mr. Frank Ballenger is confined to his home in West End by sickness. Officer Young of the police force contin- ues quite sick with malaria. Miss Evelyn Morgan has returned from a visit to relatives in Baltimore. Mr. Isaac Fields left last_n! lanta to attend the exposition, The vestry of Christ Church have ex- tended a call to Rev. W. Meade Clarke of St. George’s Church, Fredericksburg, succeed the late Dr. Henderson Suter. ‘The case of William Hayden, who was clarged with stealing $1 from, Mr. J. D. Brookes and also with defacing the steam yacht came up before Mayor Thompson last night and was dismissed, no one appearing agalust him. =e At Columbian College. The new president of Columbian Univers- ity, Dr. B. L. Whitman, has arrived in the city ready for the opening of the new college year, next Monday. Dr. Whitman does not come as a stranger this time, as he made a number of acquaintances during his previous visit to the city after his election as presi- dent of the university. The committee authorized to fill the va- eancy caused by the retirement of Dr. Sam- uel M. Shute at a meeting last evening de- cided not to make a perinanent appointment at this time. They appointed Prof. George J. Smith, formerly of the Central High School, instructor in English for the coming year. Prof. Smith is well known in this city, as he filled the position of instructor in En- glish in the Central High School for several years. Today examinations are being held in the university building for admission to the freshman class of the college, and they will be continued tomorrow. Graduates of the High School of last session are being ex- amined at the same time for the three va- cant scholarships given by the university trustees. it for At- to ——.__. Cora Was Fined. The only female prisoner in the dock at the Police Court this morning was a col- cred girl named Cora Lane, who said she “never done it” when she was charged with assaulting an erstwhile friend of hers who sported the elegant name of Rebecca Poin- dexter. Becky was a sight. She is naturally “dark-complected,” but one of her eyes was blacker than it reatly ought to be. Cora had also hit her a couple of times on the head with a poker, so that she had her head beund up ip a great white cloth, that look- ed for all Mie world like a big turban. There has been trouble between the two girls for some time, and last night Becky went to Cora’s mother and told her that Cora had better quit her nonsense, or she would hit her once for luck. When the two girls met there was a renewal of hostilities. Cora said Becky hit her with a brick. Becky sald she didn’t, and that Cora hit her with a poker. Cora said Becky hit her first and she only used her fists. Becky said that if che did throw a brick it was not until after Cora had swiped her with the poker. So it went. Both talked at the same time, but-the judge got them quiet long enough to Impose a fine of $10 on Cora. ee City of Richmond to Fortress Monroe and Norfolk Saturday at 6 p.m. See advt. ° MASS MEETING TONIGHT.

The Cashier of the National Capital Bank Passes Away. W. B. Baldwin, the cashier of the National Capital Bank, died at 6 o'clock this morning at his residence, 603 North Carolina ave- nue. This announcement will be received with sincere regret by 2 large circle who admired and loved the deceased. Mr. Bald- win was a victim of consumption. He had not been well since an attack of pneumonia which he had two years ago. In March last he went to Florida in the hope of benefiting his health, and in June last he tried the climate in the mountains of Tennessee. He returned to the city lust Tuesday and con- tinued to sink rapidly until his death this morning.- Mr. Baldwin was a young man of great promise, and it may be said that he had only fairly entered upon his career. He had always been identified with the hanking business, having begun as a runner for the Bank of the Republic, his faithful services and ability being recognized by successive promotions, until he reached the position cf teller. He accepted the position of teller in the Columbia Bank, and shortly afterward, when the National Capital Bank was organ- ized, he was made cashier, which position he held at the time of his death. He was a member of the board of trade and one cf the original members of the Columbia Boat Club. The deceased was the grandson of Wm. W. His brother, Mr. brent Baldwin, the cashier of the Traders’ National Bank. He leaves a wife, but no children. Funeral services will be held at his late residence Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock. Rev. Dr. Addison, the rector of Trinity Church, will officiate. The interment will be made at Roek Creek cemetery. —_—__ BANQUETED BY BOOKBINDERS. Pleasant Compliment to Internatio: President Boden. President Benjamin Boden of the Book- binders’ International Unton was given a banquet at the Buena Vista Club by a num- ber of the members of the local branch of the organization. A very pleasant evening was enjoyed, and the guests were interested with an excellent speech by Mr. Boden, who was Introduced by Mr. W. B. Hyde, presi- dent of the Washington union. Others also made addresses. Among those present were C. W. Nelson, P. Whitelaw, C. C. Covert, H. C. Easby, Thomas Callaghan, James Ruther- ford, H. F. Ashion, Mr. Ducatel, H. F. Spel- ker, E.

The fast-flying steamer Samuel J. Pentz will be utilized for the outing, leaving her wharf at 9:45 a.m. and returning about 10 o'clock in tht evening. The boat will leave Alexandria at 10: m. The fare for the round trip is twerty-five cents, and it is expected that a large crowd will make the last trip of the year to this delightful spot. Tourists and pleasure seekers who visit this beautiful city will find the ride to Norfolk and Fortress Monroe on the Nor- folk and Washington Steamboat Com- pany’s boats one of the most delightful means of seeing the corntry surrounding the national capital and of breaking the monotony of continual railroad travel. The “Norfolk,” the’*Washington" and the “New- port News” are all new boats, superbiy fitted up with every convenience for the comfort and safety -of passengers, which run on this line, making connections at Norfolk with every steamboat and rail- road line running out of that city. Those going to the Atlanta exposition or the win- ter resorts of Florida will find this a de- tghtful means of starting the trip in a pleasant manner. —_— >. Chased the Chickens. Edward Jackson, colored, told Judge Kimball this morning that he was not guilty, but a number of witnesses said he was. The charge was vagrancy, but it was used to cover several offenses which could not have been so easily proved. Two small boys testified that they saw him in a neighbor's yard Monday and that he was amusing himself chasing chickens. There was no proof that he stole any of the minister's pets, for it was in a dom- inie’s back yard, where he had a score of en: legged beauties fattening for th ‘apdward admitted that he was very drunk on that and various other occasions. He might have done it, but he wasn't sure, Just as the judge was about to pronounce sentence a colored lawyer rushed into court and entered a plea of not guilty for Jackson. Everybody smiled, but the law- yer wanted the case reopened, so that he might have the evidence, but the judge sald nay. The lawyer said that he had been back in the dock to speak to Jackson, and that the bailiffs might have known that he was engaged for the defense. “I don’t know about that,” sald Deputy Marshal Darr. “These lawyers are always talking to the prisoners, and if they don’t happen to have any money the lawyers don't defend them.” Then everybody smiled excepting Jack- son and his late lawyer, and the court said that Jackson would have to furnish bonds or go to the workhouse for fifteen days. —_——._—_ Causes of Typhoid Fever.

Justin McCarthy, a Washington contrac- tor, was locked up atthe station last night on two charges—reckiess driving and as- sault and battery. While driving down M street near 30th yesterday evening he gave his horse’s head a jerk and, it is alleged, started across the readway. A moment later thé shaft and wheel of the vehicle struck A. G. Borghausen, a young man, be- tween twenty-three and twenty-four, who was waiting for a car. The shock knocked him down, and before he could arise a baker's wagon ran over the victim's legs. He was quite seriously hurt. McCarthy was taken in by the police, and later re- leated on collateral. ‘Dover Relensed. Geo. Dover, who violently attack2d Na- than Ridout with a base ball bat on a col- ored excursion. down the Potomac some days ago and was arrested here on_the charge of assault and battery with intent to kill, had his case nolle prossed yester- day, the District courts not having juris- diction. Ridout is in a bad way. He is seriously hurt, it is reported, and may die. Dover has had court experiences before. Two or three months ago. he got in a razor fight oppysite the “Twenty Build- ings," and received some horrible. facia) gashes. One of the jabs of his antagonist Brought the weapon so heavily against bis jawbone that the blade was snapped in two. Surgical attention and time brought him around, however. Tagging Dogs. Three owncrs of unlicensed dogs were yesterday “brought to the scratch” by Q ficer Heide. Much trouble has been expe- rienccd this year by the police in seeing this tagging law observed. Nearly half the owners of animals here have lingered, deferred and. quarreled over the procurement of the medals that give carines liberty. ‘There seem: to be unurtal apposition to the payment of the tax, and it fs reported that the best off in*this world’s goods are the greatest kickers. The majority of those who own dogs and who really feel the parsing away of $2 yearly are the earliest applicarts for licenses. There are severel wealthy county resi- dents who own eight and nine dogs apiece (mostly hounds) who are at present en- gaged in a semi-legal fight against the payr ent of mcre then one license for the ertire ‘number. If immediate compliance with the existing law, though, is not made the police will have the parties before the ecerts. Here they will only be required to ex- hibit licenses, which they may purchase after a summcns has reached them. Here, the pulice ray, exists a big defect in the law. Non-compliance should be made punishable. As things are, there is always a possibility of worming out of the puyment of the $2 per dog, and a discovery of an attempt to elude the law meets with no substantial rebuke. It ts the cwners’ knowledge of this that mrskes the collection of the dog tax a most- unpleasant and slowly.accomplished task. Controt- of Streets, « The Gecrgetown people are still talking ef the $25,000 item in thei improvement sched- ule to be spent on the, regrading and re- paving of M treet, made necessary through the Washingtcn and Georgetown Railroad Company's track extension, and the report- ers and papers are being congratulated on the early publication ofthe intention. The people here claim that.the Commissioners have no right whatever, nor has Congress, to interfere with the grades or streets in Georgetown without the permission of the Property owners, as they say that the title to the streets is still vested in the pron- erty holders and not in the United States government, as in Washington. The articles of conveyance of this section from Maryland to the. United States ex- pressly stipulate that the:control of the streets was to remain forever as. then exist- ed for the benefits. of the citizens living therein. Notes.

At the meeting last night of the Protec- tive Street Railway Union it was practi- cally decided that there would be no strike on the Metropolitan road. This was what was foreshadowed in yesterday’s Star. The interview had with a Star reporter by pecsiees Rep i, the railway company, and published in The Star of yesterday, had much to do, it is said, with bringing about a peaceful solution of difficulties. Railway men, after reading what the pres- ident had to say on the matter, were al- Most unanimously of the opinion that as the agreement in reference to the present schedule, which was made for sixty days, about six weeks ago, has not yet expired, nothing hasty ought to be done by the employes, and that President ought to be given full opportunity to in- stitute the reforms wanted by his men if he is disposed to 4o so. The meetings yesterday afternoon and last night were well attended, the latter especially so. President Lawrence occu- pied the chair. The president announced that he had during the day called on President Phillips of the Metropolitan company for the purpose of denying a published report that the men were get- ting ready to strike today. In the course of the conversation with Mr. Phillips Mr. Lawrence told the railway president that it was the desire of the men to work on a ten-hour schedule, and from what Mr. Phil- lips had said Mr. Lawrence felt sure that this would be conceded in a short time. It was also announced that under a new schedule, which went into effect last Wed- nesday, many, of the difficulties under which the gwingmen labored have. been remedied. Several of those present stated that the course of the new supervisor, Mr. Thomas, who was appointed to succeed Mr. Elliott, has so far been very satisfactory to the mien, on Confederate Veterans, At a meeting of the Confederate Veterans’ Association last evening it was unanimous- ly decided not to receive the tendered resig- nation of Second Vice President B.
