NEW BUILDINGS THAT ARE NEEDED Mach Work of Repair and Im- provement by the Boys. ——__—. LEGISLATION ASKED The Attorney General has received the report of the board of trustees of the re- form school of the District of Columbia for the fiscal year ended June 30 last. At the beginning of the last fiscal year there were in the school 201 boys; there were received during the year 112, a total of 313, as against for the previous year. Of those reteived, 53 were committed by the Police Court and 16 by the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia; 22 by United States courts outside of the Distric and 21 by the president of the board of trustees. i There were discharged during the year 6S by order of the trustees; 9 by expiration of sentence (United States courts), 6 by order of court, change of sentence, h by pardon, and 8 escaped, and are still absent, leaving In the school 221. There were no deaths during the year, and the general health of the inmates was and is good. Estimates for Next Year. The report is accompanied by the esti- mates of appropriations for the next fiscal year. The amount appropriated for sala- ries for the present fiscal year was $15,1)2. The amount of the present estimate for salaries is $18,102, the difference being due to a readjustment of certain of the salaries by the board of trustees, submitted to and approved by the Attorney General, and also to the placing on the regular roll of cer- tain emplo: of the box factory, whose salaries, aggregating $1,350, were hereto fore pald from the receipts of the factory, The report s “Putting these employe: on the roll does not, however, increase the expenses of the school, as the box factory, relieved of the payment of their salaries, will have that amount addftional to turn into the treasury. The amount estimated as nec y for the support of inmates is the same number of y ‘s . although the number of boys has con- stantly increased.

A prope! pumping engine has been erected, and the distributing tanks at the summit of a tower in the rear of the main building are kept con- stantly full. These tanks hav of 30,000 gallons, and from th situation can, through the syst and fire plugs, for which pr nozzies are kept in constant readines the force of gravity alone throw streams of water over almost any the various buildings throughout grounds. “A great deal of work in the way of im- provements and repairs has been done dur- ing the y , UNL d tion of the nd his assista 1t bly the A Water main, the ex nd improvement of the gas supply 1 changes in the steam service repainting in- je and out where necded and repairing tin roofing on the older building: have been built also during the der the direction of the board,one corn crib, a slaughter pre nt acti r buildings have also been pu up for the protection of the fire hose, re« ladders and other equipments, all of wh apparatus has been approved by the of the fire department and is fitted 7 ice with the District system.

A Pistol Figures in Row. Four colored men—Samuel Davis, William Hall, Ambrose Dyer and Frank Taylor— hired a team yesterday and drove down in Maryland to one of the so-called “wine houses” on the Walker road, and when they returned they showed plainly the effects of having indulged in something stronger than Water. The liquor in which they had in- dulged was of the fighting kind, and before they entered the District they got in trouble with some men whom they met on the road. During this trouble one of the party tore boards from a farmer's fence and for a while it appeared as if they would have serious trouble, but they managed to get through -without any serious ending, and another art for home was made. Soon after they crossed the line and got within the Distric limits they got out of the vehicle and started a fight among themselves. William Hall, it is alleged, had a pistol, which he turned over to his brother-in-law, Ambrose Davis, and the latter had the ‘weapon in his overcoat pocket when he got in_a fight with Dyer. ‘The overcoat with the pistol in the pocket was handed over to Taylor, and while Davis and Dyer were rolling in the mud, Taylor, it is charged, took the pistol and shot at them. Dyer caught the bullet in his arm. Policemen Marr and Green, who heard of the trouble, went out and found the four men, whom they placed under arrest. Tay- lor, for the alleged use of the weapon, was charged with a murderous assault, while his companions were charged with disorder- ly conduct. This morning the quartet reach- ed the Police Court and answered the charges. The men were all charged with disorderly conduct, and on this charge they were each fined $5. Taylor, for the alleged murderous assault, was held in $1,000 security for the grand jury. a Sanday A Popular Member of the Police Force Passes Away. Policeman Thomas Helsey of the first pre- cinct, who was one of the tallest men on the police force, 6s well as among the heaviest, died Saturday night at Garfield Hospital. after a month's suffering from typhoid- Pneumonia. The officer stood nearly si feet six inches in his stocking feet and weighed about 260 pounds. Less than fiv years ago he was appointed a member of th police force and was assigned to duty in the first precinct. He had come to this country from Germany several years ago, and had served in the navy, being at one time an in- structor of gunners.

The Star's notice ofithe appearance here in several places of ccurterfeit five-dollar bills has put merchants on the watch. The spuriovs greenbacks, or at least the. one passed on Mr. H. W. Offutt, purports to be of the “department series of 1886." The face of Grant is very bad, the head being very scrubby and in places indistinct. The marginal engraving is also poor. Probably, though, the most noticeable defect in the bill is the absence of the silken thread. An attentive touch easily discloses the poor quality of the paper. The number is also of faded appearance, the blue ink showing up badly. The number borne is B, 59045227. W. S. Rosecrans'and N. H. Nebeker appear on the note as register and treasurer, re- spectively. An M street shoe dealer was also a vic- tim of the “shover. The receiving teller of the Farmers and Mechanics’ Bank, Mr. Auld, has had occa- sion in the last day or two to turn down a spurious five-dollar note containing the de- fects noted. Made a Mistake. Jacob Knapp, an old German,was, brought to the station on Saturday on the report of two ‘young men, who claimed that he was violently insane and was torturing himself by pulling out his hair and beard by -the handfyl and otherwise acting in a de- mented manner. The patrol was sent to the Chain bridge, where the man was satd to be. There the officers found the German and thought he was a Iittle “flighty.” There were ro evi- dences of personal violence. The man was without hair or beard, but the departure had not taken place recently or violently. As the old fellow could give no good account of himself though, and as he appeared to be without a home, the of- ficer brought him back and entered “va- grancy” opposite his name on the police records. He speaks but a few words of English. He says he from Pennsylvania, where he has worke pork butcher. His family are in Germany been bald headed and compara- Dumbarton Church.

The members of the Independent Order of Good Templars turned out in force last evening, when the thirtieth anniversary of the order in this city was celebrated by an anniversary sermon, at the Metropolitan M. E. Church, by the pastor, Rev. Hugh Johnston, D. D. The sermon was a review of the work and aims of the Good Templars and the good it had accomplished as a tem- perance organization. Dr. Johnston took as his text, “Love the Brotherhood.” After speaking of the wide spread of the broth- erhood, which was founded in 1851, and now has 12,000 lodges over the country, he said that more than 8,000,000 people have taken the pledge from the altars of the order. It had the same object as the W. C. T. U., and its principles register the highest water-mark ever yet reached by any tem- perance organization, He could not see, Dr. Johnston said, that he who believes in God can be blind to the evils of the liquor traffic. But if al! would not join in the work against the drink evil, it was the duty of all to at least refrain from oppos- ing it. . ——— Death of Isnac P. Childs. Mr. Isaac P.
