-SUBURBAN NEWS ANACOSTIA. Some of the most enterprising of the ‘Yitizens of Anacostie have renewed the "agitation, which was started about a year ‘ego by the Citizens’ Association, but which Was allowed to die out, to secure free de- lvery for the citizens of the town. On the wevious occasion the proper officials of the ost Office Department expressed a will- {ngness to do all they could in that direc- tion to comply with the request of the people of Anacostia, as expressed through ® committee of leading men who called upon them, but after an additional mail to and from the city each week day was established by the department, no further Steps toward getting the free delivery were taken. Since Postmaster General Wilson has been at.the head of postal affairs he has frequently expressed the opinion that the @reai majority of fourth-class offices, such as Anacostia, ought not to exist as such, but that they should be attached to the nearest large post office, as, for example, Washington, and the person in charge, who weuld be designated as a superintendent, report to and transact his business through the postmaster of the large offi instead of the department having to deal with the fourth-class office. Postmaster General Wilson's plan has recently been put in Practice at Baltimore and vicinity, where all the post offices within a radius of some twenty miies nave been put in charge of Postmaster Warfield, and the scheme has worked well, for, while a number of per- sons lost their positions as postmasters, they were in most cases at once appointed superintendents of the stations established in place of the offices, and the people throughout the entire section were im- mediately given the advantages coming from free delivery. Postmaster General Wilson is reported to hhave also said that the same system ought not only to be extended to Washington, but ought to be arranged to apply to every large city and its vicinity throughout the United States, and that it was his inten- tion to do all in his power to have the plan carried out. The store of Mr. David I. Bowen in Mary- land, a few miles below the District line, was broken into by thieves the latter part of last week and a large quantity of goods stolen. Mr. Bowen carried a large stcck of general merchandise, but the principal rticles stolen consisted of boots and shoes. t is believed that entrance to the stor was effected with tools which had been se- eured from a blacksmith shop near by. On the night before the robbery at Mr. ven's the corn house on the farm of Mr. has. H. Anderson, in the same neighbor- hood, was forced open and several barrels of corn carried away. An interesting case is pending before Judge Brooke at Upper Marlboro’, and many people are awaiting the decision with as much patience as they possess. Mr. Geo. Roland, a young widower, sued his father- in-law, Mr. John J. Selver, for the posses- gion of his three children, who have been taken care of by their grandparents since the death of Mrs. Roland. The evidence was heard Monday and the children were Present. One of them caused considerable amusement to the spectators by running gbout the court room until taken away by his grandmother. Several prominent citizens of Prince George's county, living near Suitland, who went to Baltimore to attend the annual meeting of the Maryland Society for the Protection of Animals, have returned home. The reports submitted stated that the so- clety was in good condition, but that more money could be used to excellent advan- tage. During the past year 1,425 cases were investigated, of which 1,369 were remedied without prosecution, while 56 arrests were made. Tnere were 35 convictions and 21 were acquitted. Eighteen animals were hu- mately killed to put them out of misery. > BROOKLAND. Mr. David C. Bangs, the well-known Yeader, gave a series of selections at the Brookland M. E. Church last night for the benefit of the Methodist congregation here. The audience was large and enth astic. The heart was moved with pity at the “Idiot Boy,” the rocm was filled with Jaughter at “The Champion Snorer” and “The Serenader,” while tears almost came to the eyes when the tender stories of “Lasca” and “Somebody’s Mother” were told. Mr. Bangs’ impersonations of negro and Yankee dialect, which have won for A prominence, were met with ause. The appreciation of the audience was shown in the number ef encores to which he was obliged to re- spond. Between Mr. Bangs’ selections ‘e vocal numbers by -Miss Knigat Anna Chapman, both of whom were loudly applaud: The entertainment was quite a success, and many people from the city, as well as from Brookland and its vieinity, were pre ‘The Episcopal Sewing Gutld is holding a pleasant meeting this afternoon in the guild room. Owners of property and real estate agents have been annoyed recently by persons cutting down trees in groves and uncleared lots without authority.-It is hoped that this matter will be looked after by the Officers in this precinc asa LINDEN. The Irving Literary and Social Club held @ meeting for the purpose of reorganization at I Hall Friday evening last, and elected following officers: Oscar Wood- ward, president; Mrs. G. H. Wright, vice president; Frederick Benjamin, secretary and treasurer; Major Fox, editor, and Mrs. Frederick Benjamin, assistant editor. It Was decided to hold meetings on the third Friday in each month at Irving Hall, and on the first Friday in each month at the Tesidence of some one of the members of the club. Owing to the severe weather, the Juve- nile Templars of Linden have decided to postpone further meetings until the spring. Master Vafentine Wilson, who is on a visit to his aunt, Mrs. Fred.’ A. Bickford, at Brooklyn, N. Y., has recovered from a se- Were attack of pneumonia. —__ ROCKVILLE. The January term of the circuit court for this county commenced here Monday, Judges Lynch and Henderson on the bench. In the case of the corporation of Gaithers- burg agt. Frank J. Carlisle a decision was rendered. It enjoins the prosecution of Proceedings to impose upon and collect a fine for an alleged violation of an ordinance of the corporation, which prohibits proper- ty owners from building on their lands hearer the streets than the building lines, which are twenty feet from the public Streets. The court declined to act upon the plea of counsel that the legislature had no Tight to delegate power to the town com- sioners to lay such restrictions without ecmpensation to property owners for any injury which might result therefrom, deem- ing it unnecessary, inasmuch as the town authorities had failed to establish any bvilding lines whatever under the ordi- nance, and having failed to do so the prosecution was unwarranted. On Tuesday Charles Kohlhoss was brought before the ccurt under an attachment for contempt in not paying the alimony to Mabel Kohlhoss ag heretofore directed by the court, and after a severe reprimand was given until the third Monday in March to comply or show cause of inability. In the orphans’ court Tuesday the fol- lowing business was transacted: The last will and testament of Robert R. Moore, deceased, was filed and admitted to pro- bate and record and letters testamentary 3 the personal estate were granted to joseph T. Moore and Wm. W.

Appli-, ¢Btions for administrations were filed by Carolina M. Magruder on the personal es- fate of Zadoe Magruder, deceased, and Al- Pert F. Meem, on the personal estate of Martha A. Meem, deceased. A well-attended meeting of the county wimissioners took place yesterday, at & considerable ainount of business ‘ted. A number of bills for coun- work and supplies were presented, and @ following passed and ordered to be paid: ict—George W. Shaw, work on ; Thomas Bowie, pauper, $3.

Almoney (postmas- ter), envelopes, $10.80. ~ Samuel Stewart, colored, charged with criminal assault on Lulie Magruder, a col- ored girl eleven years old, had a preliminary hearing Monday before Justice Stonestreet at this place. The evidence was quite con- tradictory, but not sufficiently strong to hold the accused, and he was released. The case of the Washington, Forest Glen and Woodside Railway Company against the Union Turnpike Company, in which a verdict for $2,300 was rendered for the turn- pike company by a condemnation jury, which met here last week, has been appeal- ed to the circuit court, the amount being deemed insufficient. The annual meeting of Ridgely Brown Camp of Confederate Veterans will take place in Rockville Saturday, February 1. Camp will be called to order at 10 a.m. At the conclusion of the business of the meet- ing a dinner will be provided. A large at- tendance of members is expected. Mr. John A. Jones, a prominent and wealthy citizen of this county, died on Fri- day at his home near Dickerson, aged sev- enty-six years. His funeral took place on Sunday, with interment at Beallsville cem- etery. Mrs. A. B. Ritenour, a well-known lady residing near Boyd’s station, suffered a stroke of paralysis a few days ago, and is now in a critical condition, with little hope of her recovery. The excitement attendant upon the arrest and threatened lynching of Wm. Chandler, cclored, charged with attempted criminal assault upon Mrs. Reul Poole, near Be- thesda, Friday last, has atmost entirely dis- appeared, and no apprehension is now enter- tained but that the law will be allowed to take its course. —_—_ HERNDO) The six or seven young men or boys charged by Thomas Tramble with threat- ening to burn his house, &c., were, on a criminal warrant sworn out by Mr. Tram- ble, arrested last week by Deputy Sheriff Williams of this town and taken before Justice J. R. Taylor at Fairfax Court House. It appeared in evidence that the boys had no malicious intent, but they car- ried their fun to an extreme, among other things, firing a package of crackers on the porch after the family had retired for the night. Trambie fired his gun twice, using matches to ignite the powder, as he was destitute of caps. Mr. Tramble was represented by Lawyer Kieth and the boys by Joseph H. Powell, esq. They were fined Bx . each with costs, amounting to $5.14 each. The reception given Friday by Mrs. Stephenson and daughter Hellen Grace was an occasion of much enjoyment. A larze rumber of friends called, among whom were many from Floris and Sterling. Music, vocal and instrumental, was frequenily heard and much enjoyed by the guests. Refreshments were served to all. The vil- lage was well represented. The time was from 3 to 10 p.m., and the general verdict was “A very enjoyable time.” A card party was given Saturday evening by Miss Margaret Russell. Among those present were Dr. Ellis and Dr. Townsend of Washington, Miss Annie Robey, Miss Nyman, Messrs, W. F. Middleton, Clarence Walker, W. I. Robey, jr., and Frank Van Deusen. Mr. B. C. Garrett has moved his saw- mill to the tract on which the timber was recently purchased by Mr. Siegel Brown of Mr. W. A. Van Deusen, where he will convert the timber into lumber for Mr. Brown. Mrs. H. H. Garrett is slowly re- covering from her recent severe illness. Mr. E. L. Howard has opengd a school of vecal music in Sterling. —— COLLEGE PARK. The “model farmers’ institute,” held at Annapolis Tuesday last, argues well for the continuance of such conventions. - The court house was crowded at all of the yes- sions and the closest attention was mant- fested throughout. Nearly every county in the state sent its qugta of visitors. The college and experiment station were well represented on the list of speakers. Tne recent dance given by the Rossbourg Club of the collége was one of the most successful of the season. A pleasant feature was the presence of many of the alumni who are pursuing professional or post-graduate work in other colleges. St. Andrew's Chapel has entered upon its second year of usefulness in this vicinity. Its many friends will be pleased to learn that it is in a vigorous condition and that the average attendance has been very en- couraging. Miss Champlin of Washington has been visiting Miss Elizabeth Johnson. Miss Peters of Rockville, who has been visiting Dr. and Mrs. McDonnell, has re- turned home. Miss Estelle Hall has been the guest of Dr. and Mrs. W. O. Eversfield. Messrs.Sothoron Key and Rusell Manning were recent visitors at the home of Mr. Chas. B. Calvert. < Poin LAUREL. = eae ey The condition of Newton Willis, the ten- year-old son of Mr. Charles S. Willis, secre- tary of the District of Coluittla branch of the American Legion of Honor, who received a charge of dynamite in hig right leg below the knee Saturday evening, is improving. The doctors have probed’ the youngster’s leg and most of the powder and pieces of brass frcm the dynamite, cartridge have been removed. Young Willis received the charge of dyna- mite in his leg last Saturday evening in front of the store of Mr. Montgomery Armstrong, dealer in newspapers and periodicais. He was in company with nis six-year-old-broth- er, Stanley Willis, and Hatton Rogers, the eleven-year-old son of Mr. Frank Rogers, an employe in the Department of Justice. The young boys were on an errand, when they stopped at this point to see Howell Armstrong, the fourteen-year-old son of Mr. Montgomery Armstrong, cut a dynamite cartridge in two, in order to secure the wire inside for his small electric battery. Arm- strong was holding the cartridge out at arm's length and hammering on it when it exploded. The cartridge was pointing in the direction of young Willis, who just be- fore the explosion started to move off, and most of the contents of the cartridge took effect in his leg. Armstrong’s hand was badly burned and pieces of the brass cap entered portions of his body. These, how- ever, were removed by Dr. Byerly. A part of the cartridge also hit little Stanley Wilils on the left side, over the heart, but did not enter deeply into the flesh, and was easily remov A number of grains lodged in Rogers’ face, but these were also removed. Young Willis sustained the severest injuries of all, and is now confined to his house, be- ing unable to use his right leg. One of the arteries in the leg, it is believed, was cut by the dynamite. ‘Your g Armstrong secured the cartridge on the electric railway work, which is now going on here. All of the youngsters, with the exception of Newton Willis, are out and seem all right. Armstrong is carrying one of his arms in a sling. ———>—_—_ FALLS CHURCH. —= The members of the M. E.
