Wortman’s Discovery in Wyoming and Its Value to Science. From the New York Herald. Dr. J. L. Wortman of the Museum of Xatural History, Central Park, New York, goes home with what {s probably regarded as the greatest trophy that scientist ever gathered. He claims to have the missing link that establishes the development of man from the Simian ancestry to the pres- ent noble status of humanity. The doctor talked at length about his find. “Probably some misapprehension exist: he explained, “with regard to the relation of this monkey frcm Wyoming to the genus homo. It cannot be properly claimed that the Wyoming discovery furnishes a link in the immediate ancestry of the human fam- jiy. When the paleontologist wishes to de- cipher the complete history of any of the great strains of the mammal it Is neces- sary for him to have proper beginnings, and ore of the greatest difficulties has been in the study of the paleontological history of the order of primates, or quadrumana, to discover a close and intimate connection Between what are familiarly known as lemurs, or half apes, and the tye monkeys. “For many years remains have been tak- en from these Wyoming lake deposits that we have never been able to determine with exactness with reference to whether they were true monkeys or lemurs. Of all the true monkeys that now exist those which inhabit South America are the most primi- tive, and It has been a question for many years whether or not these monkey forms that are found in Wyoming depos were not the ancestors of the South Amer: ean species living today. “Upon this question the Wyoming find fs all important, and, if tt ultimately turns out that such Is the case, which is now very strongly suspected, then we have no ana- tomieal difficulty in tracing the line of the human ancestry back to that remarkable primitive beginning which we now find in the living lemurs.”” = ts Beecham’s Pills for con= stipation, toc. and 25c¢ Get the book at your drug- gist’s and go by it.

ENCOURAGEMENT FOR THE CHORCH Charleston Chosen for the Next Year's Meeting. DETAILS OF THE DAY —————— The conference of workers of the Epis- copal Church among the colored people continued their session today at St. Luke’s Church, on 15th street. Devoticnal exer- cises, in charge of Rey. Mr. Waller of Philadelphia, preceded the business ses- sion. During the day there was a great deal of friction, and at times the main object of the gathering was wholly lost sight of in fierce parliamentary controver- sles, evolving nothing more than personal advantage. The first feature of the proceedings was the pregentation of Bishop Ferguson of Western Africa, who was introduced to the convention and made a brief address, con- gratulating those present on the effective organization for work among the negro race. He spoke but-casually of work in Africa. He said he had never urged any of his people to go to Africa. America, the land of the free, must be the home of the great majority of tHe race, and for them the work looking to their advance- ment and rellef must go on. President Waller said it was certainly providential that the convention was per- mitted unexpectedly to sce Bishop Fergu- son and hear him speak. The workers had been longing for a bishop of their own race, and here was one who was a bishop with a fixed jurisdiction. His was not a roving commission; he was among his peo- ple their guide and counsellor. New Committee Upon the motion of Rev. Henry L. Phil- lips, the convention voted to appoint 4 stated committee on the state of the church. This proposition was an out- growth of the feeling of unrest apparent throughout the deliberations of the con- vention. It was explained that the pro- posed committee should, In a measure, take the place of the bureau of informa- tion, which was to go out of existence this year. The object and work of the new committee, it was set forth, was to get in correspondence with all negro churches end obtain reports as to their spiritual and financial wellbeing. Beyond this, it would also have it in its power to accomplish what was much needed—write the history of the regro church of America. Mr. Phillips also suggested a committee of five on Christian education and divinity schools. He urged that not many schools, but one leading, strong, well endowed and strongly equipped institution. Rev. J. H. M. Pollard of South Carolina indorsed the suggestion, urging that the Raleigh School be accepted as the leading general school for the Christian education of colored young men and women, énd if there was to be a leading divinity school, he wanted to see it in the south, where the great share of work for the race must be done. Further, he said it was time to stop telling the defects of the church to the world. The church was the mother of workers, and progress within the church should be the watchword. After general discussion, the proposition was adopted. ‘At this point the discussion of the topic left over from last evening was taken up. This question was: “What shall we ask of the general convention?” A Question of Representation. Mr. Mars of New York, a layman, spoke of the tore of dissatisfaction with regard to the commission. He advised moderation. First ask, if advisable, that a man of color be placed on the commission, and after that is refused ty the general convention it would be time for violence of speech, if there must be such an event of the matter. After tome discussion, on motion of Mr. Avant, it was decided to appoint a cOm- mittee of five to present to the convention a carefully digested plan for the request to be made of the general convention. At various times during the morning session there appeared some considerable asperity on the part of certain delegates toward the president of the convention, who was charged with partiality in recognition of members. Mr. Duty of Georgia moved to adjourn sine die. The president refused to ertertain the motion. Rev, Mr. Johnson of Richmond then brought forward a reso- lution providing a different method of electing officers than by the means of a committee on nominations. By a standing vote of 14 to 12 the resolution was lost. Mr. Johnson said the object of the resolu- ticn was to give the men of the south their share in the work of the convention. To them the choice of the officers of the ecrvention by committee seemed a star- chamber preceeding. Mr. Avant followed with the expression of a desire that there weuld be no separation or feeling between the north and the south in the convention. Next Meeting at Charleston. President Waller said he was unpleasant- ly placed in the midst of the fray. He did Lot wish to be president. He should have been glad to have had a presiding officer from the south—far south. Rev. Mr. Bragg moved the appointment of a committee on place of meeting next year. Rey. J. H. M. Pollard interjected a mo- tion that the convention meet next year in Charleston, S. C. Mr. Mars of New York urged that the place of meeting go south, where the main part of the work was. Rev. M. Tunnell said that, while he was enthusiastically in favor of going to Charleston, he would vote against the sub- stitute, so cs to give all places a chance to be heard before a committee and present their invitations. Rev. Mr. Cain of Texas moved that nomi- tations for the place of meeting be in or- der, and the motion was promptly adopted, and the convention plunged into a series of speeches on the different citles of the south that want the convention next year. Invi- tations were presented from Charleston, S. C., Wilmington, N. C., and Boston, and the convention yoted unanimously to meet in Charleston. Progress Made. ‘fhe question, “What grounds have we for encouragement in the work among the colored race?’ was taken up. Rey. W. V. Tunnell of King Hall spoke of the work in Washington, with its 90,000 colored. No better field for work presented itself any- where. The tendency to pick flaws, find fault and tell of the ugliness of the church seemed to stand in the way of effective work. The convention certainly had ground for encouragement. A comparison with the work done by other denomina- tions showed that the conditions and draw- backs were common to all. The thing to do was, find encouragement and go on in the work. Mr. Pollard said that in’ 1878 the number of colored pastors in the church could be counted on the fingers of one hand. Now there are forty-five priests of the church and over thirty deacons. The speaker al- luded to his recollections of the simple be- ginnings of St. Luke’s and St. Mary's churches in Washington. In the south all was new, in the primitive conditions of a beginning. The leading colored parish, St. Mary's ef Charleston, had established sev- eral missions, and was making steadfast progress, with a membership of over 800. Mr. Pollard spoke of the discouraging out- look in 1878 in the southern diocese of Vir- ginla, where he had been the first of his race to receive orders. Consoling Comparisons. Rey. Mr. Cain spoke of the effort of the Roman Catholic Church thirty years ago to afford a place for the negro in that church. With all the force of the pope’s decree in all that time the prejudice stand- ing in the way of the colored man was still before him, and there were but two Cath- olic priests of color in the United States. It was not so in the Protestant Episcopal Church. In this sign of progress there was ground for encouragement. Rev. Mr. Avant poured oil on the troubled waters resulting from the speeches of last evening. He sald the lashings of criticism should be received in a patient and submis- sive spirit and courage be taken from the opportunity and the’ means for doing good. Mr. Bragg spoke of the work done for the THE OFFICIAL WEATHER MAP¥ EXPLANATORY NOTE: Observations taken at 8 a.m., 75th meridian time.

He said the colored man would cling to the church. The bishops might treat him unjustly, but the spirit of the church was rignt. The colored man would persist in his faith patiently to the end. Father Field interposed a practical sug- gestion that hereafter the delegates bring to the annual convention photographs of their churches to show what is being ac- complished among colored people. Rey. Mr. Allston of Charlotte, N. C., said this was better than to trifle away time, as was too much the rule in the convention. Instead of shutting one’s eyes and striking the wind, the church was doing a great work. In this town the colored Episcopal workers have forced all the other denomina- tions to have good churches and chapels for the colored people. There was ample. ground for encouragement. The Afternoon. After the morning sessicn there were noonday prayers for missions, participated in by all the clergymen present. A recess was then taken for lunch, provided by the ladies of St. Luke's in the parish hall. At the afternoon session the question, “What Can Be Done to Promote the Work Among the Colored People?” was taken up, and a paper was presented by Rev. Joseph G. Bryant of Maryland, and speeches were made by Rev. E. N. Hollings of South Caro- lina, by Mr. R. H. Gleaves of Washington and others. —_.-— AFFAIRS IN GEORGETOWN. A Big Row and Fight Breaks Up an Entertainment. A big row, that came near ending in two tragedies, closed the entertainment last night of the Sons and Daughters of Moses, a colored fraternal society, at Fort Reno, Tenleytown. The principals were Washing- torians living in and near Steep's court, in the first ward. A dispute started a wordy war, which de- veloped into a physical combat in the house where the entertainment was held. In this John, alias Jack, Washington ripped out a pistol. He threatened its effective use, and things quieted down. Later the temporarily mute volcanoes of anger burst forth with renewed vigor. Then there were cursing and slugging—in fact, a general fierce combat. During the thickest of it John Washington handed Charles Coleman his pistol, and the latter pulled the trigger on George Wash- ington, John’s brother. The ball caught him in the hand and dismissed him from the affair. Then Will Nelson was struck a bloody blow in the head with a brick or stone. He hung on, though, and got for his perseverance another blow—this time with a bottle. It crashed against his forehead and left a sickening imprint. Still he fought, though his head, both back and front, needed the attention of a surgeon and his body was weak from lcss of blood and continual vio- lent exertion. Charles Coleman then once more brought his pistol into use, aiming it at Nelson. It had not been determined up to 8 o'clock this morning whether the bullet had hit its mark or not. At any rate, Nelson dropped out of the fight shortly after. Coleman escaped from the police as far down as the Tenley- town Railroad Ccmpany's power house. There Officers C. H. Bradley and H. R. Loh- man arrested a man on suspicion, who later proved to be the fellow they wanted. George Washington and John Washington were also arrested, the former for engaging in the row, the latter as an accomplice to the shoot- ing. Nelson was allowed to be taken home, where he could obtain surgical attendance. Officer Murphy telephoned the particulars to the station last night, implicating the ar- rested parties, Interest in the Canal. The state of Maryland has advertised for sale her interest in the Chesapeake and Ohio canal. This action is being taken under authority of the law passed by the general assembly in 1892 authorizing the board of public works to sell any and all of the state’s interest in works of internal improvement except $550,000 In the Wash- ington branch of the B. and O. railroad. Sealed proposals are asked. Canal affairs are so ccmplicated that it is not believed here the state will be able to get rid of her interest in the old enterprise for any sort of a consideration. ‘The 1878 bondholders have the first claim on the canal. It amounts, with interest, to nearly $800,000. Then the bondholders of '44 come in for nearly 36,000,000. This money is secured by the canal revenves. It is claimed by these ’44 bondholders that if the waterway is sold their claim becomes immediately se- cured by the canal real estate—the corpus. Judge Alvey, though, in 18%), said that in no case would the corpus become re- sponsible for this debt. No formal decision, however, was made, and the purchaser of Maryland's interest must take all risks. The canal at present is in charge of the courts and is being operated under their supervision by the trustees of the bond- holders of 1844. Proposals for the purchase of the state's interest will be opened on Oc- tober 11. The capital stock of the Chesapeake and Ohio canal is $3,851,593.67. Of this the Uni- ted States owns $1,000,000 and the state of Maryland the greater part of the re- mainder. Then the state holds two mort- gages, one for $4,875,000 and another for $2,000,000. Then the state claims unpaid guaranteed dividends for fifty-six years, amounting to $14,689,000, and interest for sixty years, amounting to $7,200,000. These, with other claims, bring the state’s inter- est in the canal to over $29,000,000. And this is what is offered for sale, FOR SCHOOL TRUSTEES Commissioners Hear Arguments in Behalf of Various Gentlémén, > 10 Sections of the City; Representea— East Washington Agks for Re- districting—Other Names. ‘The Commissioners set aside today to hear the arguments of citizens in the in- terest of certain applicants for tte posi- tion of school trustees. i ‘The board met at half-past,11, and first heard Mr. Ellis Dalrymple, who appeared ss the representative af the Northeast Washingtan . Citizens’ Aggggiation. With Maj. Burke, he had been appointed a mem- ber of a special committee to draft sult- able resolutions upon the school question, which he read. In addition, he said the association, representing between 40,000 and 5,000 citizens, thought a resident trustee should be appointed, one who would take interest in the schools. That was not being done now, he said. Maj. Burke supplemented what Mr. Dal- rymple had said by remarking that the management of the schools was looked after by the teachers, and he believed they were deficient in this regard. The children were crowded with their studies. A new trustee, he thought, would remedy this. The association had ‘refrained from naming a man because there was such a large amount of valuable material in the northeast. Mr. Altgate suggested the names of Maj. J. B. Burks, Evan H. Tucker and Jacob Frech. The name of Mr. Ellis Dalrymple was also mentioned. The German Interest. Mr. A. H. T. Holstein presented the case of Prof. Hugo Kuerschner for trustee. He was an able man, he said, and had been engaged in teaching for a number of years. Prof. Kuerschner was a scholar. All of the Germans in the city favored a trustee of that nationality on the school board. A large percentage of the pupils ef the schools are Germans. Again, the German langtage is taught in the schools, and he thought it highly proper that one of the trustees should have a thorough knowledge of the language. Commissioner Ross added that there were a number of letters on file favoring the ap- pointment of Pref. Kuerschner. For Colored Trusteé. William D. Jarvis presented the name of Dr. C. W. Childs as the colored trustee in the southwest. He was eminently fitted for the position and close to the people in that section. East Washington. Messrs. M. I. Weller and Tracy L. Jef- fords presented the following declaration, adopted by the executive committee of the East Washington Citizens’ Association: “The executive committee of the East Washington Citizens’ Association upon careful consideration believe that the time has arrived for the redivision of the Dis- trict of Columbia into school districts, so that the representation on the board of trustees may be more fairly proportioned to the present population; and we there- fore respectfully request the Commissioners of the District of Columbia to make such a redistricting, so that that portion of the city known as East Washington may have two trusteés, one of them an actual resi- dent of the northeast, and the other of the southeast quarter of the cit Mount Pleasant. A delegation from the:Mownt Pleasant Citizens’ Association calléd ahd presented the name of W. L. Cole for the position of schcol trustee. He was, they said, a man fully capable, and, if appointed, would be @ credit to the city. The committee con- sisted of Messrs. F. L. Campbell, B. P. Davis, J. B. Sleeman, LS, Emery and G. W.

Last evening Inspector Hollinberger re- celved a message from Baltimore asking if three young white boys had been arrest- ed here, and if so, to send particulars of their arrest. They bad not been arrested, but were seen here on Maryland avenue this worning by Policeman Frank Baur, who learned of an attempt having been made by the boys to dispose of some ar- ticles. Wher the boys saw the officer they Tan, and he succeeded in capturing only one of them. This cne gave his name as Victor Paul, and his address as 3208 Co- lumbia avenue, Philadelphia. He had run away from home, and had in his possession two pistols, a breastpin, 2 watch chain and pair of opera glasses, 2nd the officer thinks tkat his companions probably had some other goods. The boy said that the three of them had come here cn a freight train together, and were on their way to Rich- mond. One of the pistois, he said, he bexght, while the other one he found, and the other articles he said he tock from home. The officer took h'm directly to the Police Court, where he was arraigned on a charge of concculed weapons. This charge was entered against him for the purpose of holding him. Judge Miller heard the boy’s statement and sent for Inspector Hollinberger, who also questioned him, Judge Miller committed the bey for a further hearing, end Inspector Hollinberg2r bas sent word of his arrest to Lis parents. About noon todzy Inspector Hollinberz2r received a letter from Paul’s father, Mr. P. P. Paul, No. Arch street, Philadel- pkia, making Inquiries about the boy. His father was notified of nis arrest and will probably come here for him. ————__ An Engineer Beard. The Secretary of War has ordered a board of engineer officers, consisting of Col. P. C.
