The announcement of the engagement of Miss Lylly Barrett, daughter of Mrs. Al- exander Barrett, who has a handsome country establishment at Newport, to Sar- seant Prentiss Knut, formerly of Natchez, Miss. and now of Washington, D.

Last night about 9 o'clock Policeman Murphy ef the first precinct saw four well- dressed young men engaged in a fight on the sidewalk at the corner of {th and D streets, and he put all members of the quartet under arrest. Two of them proved to be strangers in the city, Walter and Frank Chatterton, brothers, who live in Cleveland, Ohio, and the others were Fred. Stewart and Bernard Harding. The police- man knew nothing of the origin of the trouble, and so he required each of them to leave $ collateral for his appearance. Stewart and Harding failed to appear in court this morning, and their collaterals were forfeited. The Chattertons appeared and defended the charge of affray entered against them. It appeared, from their evidence, that one of them had engaged in a contest at a game of pool with Stewart for $10, and Harding held the money. They had trov- ble with Stewart in the pool room, and rather than engage in a tight they left the place and forfeited their money. When they got outside, Harding, they said, struck one of them, and this precipi- tated the fight, in which they all figured. Judge Miller thought that as Harding had started the fight and was assisted by Stewart, the Chattertons had a right to defend themselves, and the charge against them was dismissed. —_—__-____— A Supposed Suicide. The body of Otto Heunzch, a shoemaker, was found in the Susquehanna river op- posite Havre de Grace by two colored men early yesterday morning. Mr. Heunzch moved to Havre de Grace from Baltimore, with his family, consisting of a wife and two daughters, about six years ago to work in a shoe factory. Some time last year, on account of slack work at the factory, he moved to this city. Not finding sufficient werk here he returned to Havre de Grace about six Weeks ago, leaving his family in this city. Monday morning he was in company with Mr. A. Bode and other friends until near noon, when ne intimated very strongly that he was tired of the kind of living which he had been subjected to for the past severel months. After parting with his friends he was not seen again until about 5 o’clock in the afternoon, when he was seen directing his steps toward the river at a very rapid gait. He was about fifty years of age. A jury of inquest rendered a verdict of death from drowning, been premeditated. ——>__. Rapid Assembly. The fourth battalion, District of Columbia National Guard, had practice in rapid as- sembly last evening. The commanding of- ficer, Maj. E. R.

Canter, Sec- retary Armstrong read the plan which had Leen vubmitted for the relief of the Wes- lcyan Female Institute by the special co: mittee. Its provisions were explained by Mr. Canter and some of them were dis- cussed at length, particularly that which provided for the rental of the property by the proposed stock company at a figure not exceeding $1,000 a year. The figure was finally struck out, leaving the amount of rental to be fixed by the new board of directors to be elected. Then the plan was adopted. A tele has been received by Mr. Hamili from Methodists of Staunton, showing the in the future of the school and in th which was originally proposed by Hamill, by offering to take $00 worth of stock, just half of the amount propose be issued. This started the I shares subscribed, and the members of the conference rapidly subscribed for the re- maining 100 shares. This action is garded as saving the life of the bool. The subscribers of the held a incet- ing soon after the conference vu and elected Messrs. Robert Mag Baltimore, T. T. Fishburne of Roanoke, and Rev. Isaac W. Canter of Washington directors.
