SUBURBAN NEWS ANACOSTIA, The citizens of Aracostia are delighted at the prospect of getting rapid transit in the near future, and the announcement in last evening's Star concerning the progress that is beirg made in that direction was the al- mozt universal topie of conversation last night and today. It is understood that a committee of lead- ing business men and other citizens of the town will have an audience during the pres- ert week with Senator McMillan, who, it is generally understood, will be the chair- man of the Senate District committee, and explain to him the necessity for prompt action by Congr on the bill which was yesterday introduced in the Senate to allow the Capital Traction Company to extend its tracks from the present terminus at the ravy yard to Congress Heights via M and lith streets southeast, the Navy Yard bridge, Anacostia and Hillsdale. It is als» expected that an arrangement will be effected whereby Congress Heights will have a loop to connect it with the pro- posed electric railread, which it is contem- plated. to build from fast Washington Heights to the city proper. ‘The Junior Society of Christian Endeavor of Gorden Memorial Presbyterian Church will have their last social for 1895 in the lecture recm of the church, on Minne: avenue. Mrs. Sadie Eileen Poates is chair man of the committee of arrangements, end a fine program has been arranged by her and her colleagues.

Mudd of this town, and an old and much-respecied citizen of Charles county, Md., died his home in La Plata Sunday, at the advanced age of seventy-three years. For many years Mr. Mudd was a successful farmer, and only removed to La Plata about twi weeks ago, in order to occupy a new re: dence which he had recently completed. Mr. Mudd leaves a family of two sons and two daughters, all grown. One of the sons, Mr. John E. Mudd, is a merchant in La Plata. Extensive preparations are being made in all the Sunday schools of the town for the proper observance of Christm: and the most intense interest is manifested by the children who are to participate in the festivities John Wicks, an old colored man living near Benring, was walking Sunday night on the Baltimore and Ohio trestle bridge which crosses a branch of the Anacostia river, and had to jump into the water to avoid being struck by a freight train.

The Unsis of One of the Incidents in “Uncle Tom's Cabin.” From the Hartford Courant. The incidents which formed the basis for the story of the escape of Eliza, the slave mother, with her childgacross the Ohio river on the ice, which is familiar to readers of Mrs. Stowe's “Uncle Tom's Cabin,” were told by Rev. 8. G. W. Rankin in Hartford recently. The incidents came within the personal knowledge of Mr. Rankin, and he said that he gave them to Mrs. Stowe and that she used a younger woman, who es- caped at nearly the same time, to complete the picture and make it more attractive and dramati As Mr. Rankin tells the story, his father's family, living on the bluffs on the Ohio side of the river, were well known as in the bus- iness of helping runaway slaves, and slaves knew them as friends. It was one Christ- mas week that Eliza, a_stalw. Woman, came to the Rankin house in the night, having brought her husband across the river in a boat. He was covered with ice from the river, the night having been in- tensely cold, ad the man, who was not as bright as Mrs. Stowe's George Harris any means, had fallen into the water in get- ting out of the boat. Eliza was very re- ligtous and very determined, and had planned to send her husband ahead to Can- ada, intending to join him with her children afterward. The husband was sent dlong and Eliza crossed the river to Kentucky that same night, returning to her mother. She fixed a date—two months ahead—when she would again come to the Rankin house. True to the arrangements, she crosse: river one night in Februar: vhen the ri was in a treacherous condition, carrying her young child in a shawl strapped to her back. The ice was in broken floes, and she carried a board with a rope attached to It by which she passed from one cake to an other. She got across and was sent to Ca ada to join her husband. She still hid tive children in slavery and said to the Rankins that she was going back to Kentucky after them the following June. On the June day in question she in Mr. Rankin's garden, and guised as a man and sent acro the appeared he was dis- S the river, where she made her way to her former the master’s plantation and “hid beneatn currant bushes in his garden.

Learned and Eloquent Argaments in a Country Court of Justice. From the Louisville Courier-Journal. There was quite a gathering of people at the old post office building in Starville. There was going to be a trial. Old men and young men, all bringing their dogs, and the rear end of the room packed with all sizes of grinning darkies. “What is this trial about?” I asked as I itched my horse. A fellow with a long ctin and a squint in his eye came up and said: “Wy, you know, Lem Osborne ‘cuses Jess Hudnell uv stealin’ one uy his sheep. Jess sez he lidn’t, an’ they’re goin’ to law h A young lawyer from town is comin’ cut to ‘fend J an’ ole Bob Biddles is goin’ to persecute.” I went in. The sauire before whom the case was to be tried sat back of the letter boxes and stuck his fece out of the hole where they passed out the mail. They were waiting for the young lawyer. At last there came a shout frem the outside, and Jess Hudnell came in, wearing a big smile on his face and making room for the young lawyer, who vas a self-important looking little fellow, carrying two or three law books under his arm. ‘The cas2 was called, witnesses were sworn and examined, the young lawyer ask- ing a great many useless questions and old Bob Biddles, the native jack-legged lawyer, dropping in a question now and then. The bulk of the testimony seemed to prove that Jess Hudnell drove the s home and butchered it. When nesses had given in the testimony th said: “Like to argy the case, gents?” ”" said the young lawyer. “Whar ds TI will foller,” said old Bob. The young lawyer went at the case from all Foints, quoted Blackstone and amazed the court with his inexplicable technicalities, end as he came down to the finish he as- umed the “spread eagle’ tone, and said Jess Hudnell eal a sheep? Look at that calm and straighforward countenance, those eyes which flash forth truth as glo rious as the glimmer of the sunset sky. Ah, your honor, it was nothing but the ten- dern of a shepher(l's heart when Jess Hudnell found that lost and wandering sheep upon the highway and tenderly took it to his fold. The sheep strayed among the cold and barren hills, and today its bones lie bleaching in some dark recess of nature's realm. Steal a sheep?

I ask y and judgment to put u of this man’s life, ‘No. The audience seemed to be very much impressed and the squire nodded his ap- proval ef the speech through the mail hole. Old Bob Biddles teok the floor and said: “Your honor, from tne way that this young man talks sheep, I presume he has been to college and got’ his sheepskin, the same which I haven't; but while he war talkin’ I wur wonderin” what sort of fee he wur goin’ to git out of this case, an’ got to thinkin’ of the time when Joe Hanks and Tim Jackson wur layin’ claim to a mule.

From the Brooklyn Times. It was 11 o'clock on Central avenue. On one side cf the wide thoroughfare stood a lad with coat collar upturned, hands in trcusers’ pockets and feet shuffling in unison with the air he whistled. From the hallway across the street emerged a typi- cal specimen of the young woman with which that thickly settled locality abounds. She started up the avenue at a clinking pace. Suddenly the youth's hands were drawn out of his pockets, the shuffling and time ceased and he darted toward the girl. He overtook her cedily, and in a twink- lng had encircled her waist with a firm hold and showered kisses on her rather pretty face. She screamed, but he per- sisted in hi ter tions.
