Wine, ter Postmaster. Post Office, Washington, D. nee Charged With Perjury. Lincoln S. Forrest has been arrested by Detectives Carter and Gellaher on a charge of perjury preferred against him by his brother-in-law, Abraham Kendig, and the case, which has been set for trial in the Police Court for next Wednesday, promises to be an interesting one, involving as it does questions of domestic relations and the effects of spiritualism on Mrs. Forrest. Some time ago Forrest sued Kendig for al- leged alienation of his wife's affections, and got a judgment of $1. It is claimed on Forrest's side that Kendig and others who believe jn spiritualism are responsible for his wife’s conversion to that faith, and this, he claims, is what led to their final separa- tion. Divorce proceedings are now pending. During the trial of the civil case it is charged that Forrest committed perjury in swearing to an alleged conversation be- tween his (Forrest's) wife and Kendig, her brother, which he heard through a key- hole. {When the case was called in the Police Court this morning Forrest, who was represented by Lawyer Clephane, was re- leased on his personal bonds for his ap- pearance. ——.__ Real Estate at Auction.

Subscribers to Have the Option of ‘Two Systems of Payment. The Chesapeake and Potomac Telephone Company, through its officers, announced at recent hearings before committzes at the pitol their purpose of establishing in Washington what is known in telephone circles as a “measured set'vice,” after July 1. A measured service is ‘ohe based upon the number of messages tfafismitted. This announcement has brought’ ‘out consider- able opposition from telephone subscribers whose instruments are in use a great deal, and figure that under such & system their rentals will be vastly incgeased. This cp- position, the officers of the: qompany cla’m, is due to a misunderstanding of what the company proposes. From thé beginning it was proposed that it should”be wholly op- tional with the subscriber*Whether he pay the existing flat rates for unlfmited service, or have his service measured according to the new system. In othe® words, sub- scriptions to the measured 'service are to be voluntary and not compulsory. The object of introducing the measured service, the officers of the company say, is to meet public requirements for a flexible eervice, and to place the telephone within reach of the small user. The rates which are being considered, but which may be changed before being finally adopted, pro- vide for a charge of $60 per annum, limited to 600 messages, and a charge of S$ cents for cach additional message. From this rate the charges are graduated up to 3100, which entitles a user to 1,4) messages a year, a charge of 5 cents being made for each additional message. For more than 1,500 messages per annum the rate of ad- vance will be $4 per hundred, with 5 cents cach for additional messages. — Marriage a Failure. On Half street southwest near the Wash- ington barracks lives a young man named Daniel Kendrick, who works in the gov- ernment printing office. When he went in search of a better half he found one whom he thought was an angel by nature as well as by name. Cora Angel was the name of the young woman whom he s lected as his life’s partner, and he married her against the protests of his relatives. If he married in haste he is now repent- ing at leisure, and last nignt when he found himself behind the bars on his wife's mother’s complaint he wished ie had never seen an angel. Threats of personal violence was the charge against him, and he had the sympathy of the police. Daniel has been working at night, and during his ab- sence, he claims, his wife has entertained a sold‘er at the barracks. This military friend, the police say, was injured a short time ago, and Mrs. Kendrick, they-say, has been visiting him. The husband thought his marriage had been a failure, and because of what he is alleged to have said to his wife he was arrested and lock- ed up. When Judge Miller heard the case today he thought the young man had done no harm, and was not dangerous. He therefore dismissed the charge against him. Se Transfers of Real Estate. Daniel A.

The remains of Mr. ChascIy Ireland, man- ager of the Mergenthaler Linotype Com- pany in Manchester, England, whe died unexpectedly April 29, were placed aboard ship last Tuesday, bound for this country, where they will be interred in Greenwood cemetery, Brooklyn. Mr. Ireland, who was but twenty-six years of age, was a son of Mr. John B.: Ireland, a well-known sculp- tor. His sudden death was a great shock to his many friends in this city. ——_— Struck by a Car. Edward Colston, a colored man about thirty years of age, was struck by grip car No. 24 of the 7th street line just below R street last night and seriously injured. He was removed to Freedmen’s Hospital. John Young, the gripman, and Edward Dolivan, the conductor, were questioned by the po- lice, but the accident, seemed to be due to Colston’s carelessness, and they were not arrested. 2 FORGED CHECK, A Man Who Nas Given Much Trouble Arrested, Alphonso Boswell, brother of the late col- lector of taxes of that name, is under ar- rest, because of a successful effort he has made to live without performing any manual labor, It is true that he had to exert him- self enough to fill out checks and forge names of prominent citizens to them, and then he had no trouble to get them cashed. His checks were all for small amounts, none of them being for more than $5. He forged the names of such people as Thos. E. Wag- gaman, Thomas J. Fisher and B. H. Warner, and made the checks payable to himself. After banking hours he would go to places, principally saloons and lodging houses, and had no trouble in getting the checks cashed, because of the small amount for which they called. Boswell had been arrested several years ago by Detective Helan on a charge of forgery, and had been released on his gcod behavior. Since then he has been arrested for petty thefts. When complaints about these small checks came in the police knew that Boswell was passing them, and for three weeks all the detectives have been looking for him. Yesterday another com- plaint came in, and then the detectives start- event to renew their search. etective Boyd and Precinct Detective Hartigan soon learned of his probable whereabouts, and about 7 o'clock they found him near Pennsylvania avenue and 3d strest In his pockets he had a number of blank checks, as well as one for $5, purporting to bear the signature of Thos. J. Fisher, and made payable to “Forney Boswell ‘ fe admitted his guilt, and attributed hi: wrong-doing to the result of liquor drink. Ing. | In addition to passing the forged checks, it is alleged that he sold his family lot in a cemetery, to which he did not hold the title. He will by pg ties e taken to court Monday —-—__. Ladies Play Golf. The ladics’ tournament, which has been going on for some days past on the links of the Washington Golf Club at Rosslyn, came to an end yesterday afternoon, and was won by Miss Ruth Simpkins. As a Te- sult of her skill she takes the ttle of champion of the District and the trophy, a handsome silver loving cup, donated by Assistant Secretary William E. Curtis. Yes- terday Miss Simpkins defeated the two young ladies who were running close for first place. In the morning she won from her sister, Miss Mabel Simpkins. In the afternoon the final game was played. Her opponent was Miss Batchelder, who was given a handicap of seven strokes. Miss Simpkins won handily by five, with three to play. The players were followed around the links by a large number of spectators, who watched every play with the greatest interest. After the game tea was serv. the club house. ae _— Gambling Across the Potomac. At a meeting of the directors of the board of trade yesterday considerable routine business was transacted. The attention of the bcard was called by Mr. Moore to the fact that the gambling houses along the river opposite Georgetown had been opened and that, with the exception of Sunday, they were resorted to each day. The sub- ject gave rise to considerable discussion, and it was finally concluded that it was not in the province of the board of trade to take the initiative in the matter. It was, how- ever, thought that if a public meeting was called to consider the situation the mem- bers of the board as individuals would take an active interest. Mr. Moore will notify Gov. Q’Ferrall of the condition of affairs as reported to the board of trade directors, WoT S TES TSTS TTT S SSS SOC OO ESS A SUNLIGHT EFFECT.
