The mecting Saturday evening of the In- terstate Democratic Association at River View was one of the most successful af- fairs of the kind ever held in this vicinity. It was estimated that nut less than 38,000 and perhaps 4,000 persons were preseat, among them being voters from nearly every state in the country. ‘The announcement in The Star that the meeting would be addressed by Maj. Mc- Kinley’s old-time antagonist, ex-Governor James E. Campbell of Ohio, and that the latter would have something to say that would be of interest not only in Washing- ten, but throughout the United States, helped to swell the crowd to the immense proportions it assumed. mmittee, composed of Vice President Gall of the association, as chairman, and Messrs. Lawrence Gardner and James L. Norris, conducted Mr. Campbell from the Arlington, where he was stopping, to the 7th street wharf, where those named and Commissioner of Pensions D. I. Mur- phy, Beriah Wilkins, Mr. C. G. Conn and cthers boarded Mr. ‘Conn’s private yacht and went to River View. ‘The meeting was called for 8 p.m., pre- vcous to which Mr. Campbell, after being entertained at dinner, held an informa’ tion, and hundreds of those present spects to him. romptly at the heur appointed Mr. D. Gall, who was selected by President ford of the Interstate Asso- ion in his absence to call the meeting to order, rose to do so, but before he could accomplish it, Mr. W. M. Oldham, a resi- dent of Texas and a veteran democrat, pressed forward and presented Mr. Camp- bell with a handsome bouquet of flowers, saying, as he did so, “I present these flow- ers as the token of the true democracy of the state of Texas, which will give to Gov- ernor Campbell 250,000 democratic votes in November.” Immense cheering greeted Mr. Gall as he proceeded to call the assemblage to order named Mr. Murphy as chairman, and ene presented was a beautiful one. The handsomely decorated and brilliantly illuminated pavilion, which was filled wi:h leading democrats, many of whom were accompanied by lady members of their tamily, while outside of the building hun- dreds of men were packed, and who yelled themselves hoarse in announcing "their preference for Mr. Campbell as the demo- cratic nominee for the presidency of the United States against Mr. McKinlcy. Mr. Gall, who spoke briefly, prefaced his remarks by reading a telegram from Pres!- Gent Hosford, regretting his inability to be present. "After extending the hearty greetings of the members of the Interstate Democratic Association to those present for their attendance, he urged that it would be the duty of every democrat, no matter whether he now was a gold man or favored the free and unlimited coinage of silver, to indorse the nominee of the Chicago conven- tion, no matter who he may be. In concluding his speech, Mr. Gall intro- duced Mr. Campbell, who, as he took his place on the front of the platform, was greeted with the most enthusiastic ap- plause, and it was several minutes before the cheering subsided sufficiently to give him an opportunity to proceed.

He spoke of the silver question as one of ecenomics, and one on which democrats could well differ and still stay inside the party. He drew a strongly adverse pieture of the St. Louts convention, and said that with proper concessions and harmony the democrats would be successful this year. Other Exercises. The speech was heard with the most marked interest on the part of every one in the vast throng, and was ftequently punctuated with applause. : Among those on the platform, besides those named, were United States Treas- urer D.

Gets Into the Police Court and is Sent Down. Johanna Quill is still living a life of single blessedness, but this is perhaps not her fault, for she cannot keep out of the work house long enough to make the necessary preparations, nor can she keep sober long enough to understand just when to say “I will.” When she was in the toils two weeks ago her prospective husband, George Sauls- bury, also got in trouble. This was because he persisted in making an effort to get Jchanna out of trouble, and because of his drunkenness he was arrested by Police- man Flynn. “You certainly do look sweet this morn- ing,” she said to the big policeman, when she entered the temple of justice, “but I can’t hug you any more, for you're too big.” he had been arrested yesterday morning because of her bad conduct, Policeman Ehlers having found her about 1 o'clock cursing at the moon. When the Capitol Hill policeman warned her to keep quiet she only became worse, and when he placed her under arrest she said: “If you don't have to carry me I'll—” Sure enough, she fell upon the sidewalk, and, as there is no all-night patrol service in the precinct, the policeman had to sum- mon assistance .and carry the drunken wo- man all the way to the station. “I just got out of the work house Satur- day,” she said this morning, “and George was there to meet ma He got a pint of good whisky, but it was too good, and I don't want any more.”” “When are you going to get married?” Johanna was asked. to break the engagement,” she because George is too slow. But, as I was saying, the whisky was too much for me, and how I ever got from Mis- souri avenue to Capitol Hill I don't know. Me and George went out to dinner, and then we had the whisky, but how I got lost from him I don’t know.”” Johanna entertained the prisoners dnd officers until Judge Kimball arrived, and then she led the procession of prisoners. She was the first one called for trial when court opened, and her case was disposed of without any trouble, for she merely said guilty and went back, because she did not have $5. There were fifty-eight prisoners in the toils, only eight of whom were not colored. Included.in this number were several fe- maies. ““fhe crowd does not represent a ratio of 16 to 1,” remarked a colored lawyer, “but it's decidedly against white metal “It's 16 to 1 in favor of coal,” remarked a policeman, When the case of the prospective bride had been disposed of the others were called, one at a time, and tried for violations of the municipal ordinances. Liquor drinking was the cause of most of the trouble, and the prisoners whose heads were by no means ® normal condition did the best they could xplain away t a axon apa tway the charges preferred George Tyler was one of this number. He is a heavy colored man, who spent some of his week's earnings for rum Saturday ntght, and when he had more liquor aboard than he coufd stand he made himself comfortable on the sidewalk on M street. “When I found him Saturday night,” said the officer, “he was stretched across the ney ment, so that pedestrians couldn't pas I had only taken two or three drink said Tyler, “and 1 wasn't powerful drunk: “That's a new expression,” said the court. “The proof shows you were not powerful, but that you were powerless.”” ‘And I never harmed anybody in my life.”” That may be true, but this sort of con- duct cannot be overlooked, and you will have to pay a fine of $5. Other victims of strong drink were sim- ilarly treated, and a number of disorderly bersons and vagrants were also sent down. to the Union. To the Editer of The Evening Star: The Star is always so fair to all classes of its readers that I ask you without hesi- tation to give space to this communication. I am a Catholic. I am hkewise a loyal citizen of this republic, and proudly ac- knowledge the stars and stripes as the flag to which I owe allegiance. Yet, if the organization known as the P. A. were in control I would be so surely cut out from all exercise of the rights of Ameri- can citizenship as if I had forfeited those rights by acts of treason. The basis of this organization is the allegation that the communicants of the Roman Catholic Church are not loyal to the United States of America. Of course, this is a state- ment that no fair-minded person believes. The thousands of graves of Union dead who died in the Catholic faith give it the lie. The host of Catholic ex-Union sol- diers who today bear the scars of battle refutes it. And yet it is reiterated day by day. Surely this Is not right. Liberty of conscience, tolerance of religious beliefs ot whatever kinds, have ever been jewels in the diadem that encircles fair Colum- bia’s brow. Why do noi all fair-minded men and women combine to frown down these slanders on the millions cf loyal cit- izens whose only sin is that they worship in the faith of their fathers? The slur is undeserved. It is a wrong and an insult altogether uncalled for. Our dally lives refute the’cruel charge. We raise our chil- dren, not only in the faith we profess, but in the love of country as well. Only on Thursday night, at the commencement of Immaculate Conception school, we gave proof of it. The hall was draped with fiegs at every point, but the only flag you Saw was the standard of the republic. Every sentiment uttered was love and de- votion, not only to our church, but to our country. This is the reason why we ask you to give room to this protest against slurs and undeserved insite that hurt’ the feelings of every Catholic man and woman. A LOVER OF HIS COUNTRY. —_—_._—_ The Moseley Delayed. The big steamer Jane Moseley, which runs from here to Colonial Beach, went aground at the dock at the beach yester- day afternoon just before the hour to re- turn to the city with a throng of excur- slonists. An unexpected fall in the tide caused the mishap. Efforts were made to release the Moseley, the steamer Harry Randall breaking several lines in her at- tempts, but nothing could be done until the tide started in, when the Moseley float- ed off. A delay of about an hour and a half was caused, and the steamer got to the city at 12:20 o'clock, just In time for all to catch the last car for their homes. General Agent Moore was on board, and he and the other officers did everything to make the passengers comfortable during the short wait before the boat left the beach. The crowd was good-humored and good-natured, and did no kicking. There were over 500 Washingtonians on the Mose- ley, and they enjoyed the trip thoroughly. ————__ Life of Christ. A series of twelve illustrated sermons on the life of Christ was begun last night at the Metropolitan M. E. Church by Rev. Dr. Hugh Johnston, pastor of that church. The lectures are to be illustrated by means of the stereopticon, and the opening one dealt with the life of Christ, from the miracle at Cana to the miracle of the fish- es. The pictures which illustrate the ser- mens are taken from different historical pictures, or from life, and those put upon the screen back of the pulpit last evening were exceptionaliy good. Foilowing the sermon, Mrs. Gibson sang an illustrated hymn, and this will be a feature of each one of the sermons. The sermons will be delivered every Sunday night, —_—__ Children’s Day. Children’s day exercises were held last evening in the new M. E. Church, corner 15th and R streets, under the direction of Mr. Harry Fanner, superintendent of the Sunday school. The exercises were of an interesting nature, and were well attended The Sunday school is divided into small bands, each one of which has a distinctive name, and each took some separate part in the exercises last evening. Mr. Harpar led the responsive reading, and made a short address on temperance. The bene- diction was by Rev. W. W. Van Arsdale, pastor of the church, - For Deaf Mutes.

Local Notes of interesting Halppen- ings in the Courts and Among Citizens feM Briefly. + Saturday afternoon, about 4 o'clock, there came very near beingia fatal accident at the corner of Fayette and Princess streets. The through traim: on the Washington, Southern railway, which was about ten minutes late, was running at a high rate of speed, and at the intersection of the street named struck a wagon belonging to Mr. I. M. Kell. Charles Bell, colored, was driving, and seated upon the seat with him was Amanda Williams, also colored. There are no gates or flagman at the intersection of these streets, and Bell attempted to drive over the track, not seeing the approaching train. The pilot of the engine struck the wagon, throwing it a distance of about twenty-five feet. The horse escaped with a few brutses, although the harness was torn completely off him. Bell was considerably bruised, but the woman was picked up in an unconscious condition, and carried to her home on West street_and Dr. T. Mar- shall Jones summoned. She was found to be injured internally, and it was thought that her injuries would prove fatal. Today, however, her condition is somewhat im- proved, although she is not as yet entirely out of danger. Police Court. Mayor Thompson this morning had the usual number of Saturday night and Sun- day “drunks” and misdemeanors to dispose of. The first case called was that of Rich- ard Toy, who Saturday evening filled up on bad whisky and proceeded to clean out the saloon of Mr. H. Kalitski, on King street, but was interrupted by the appearance of Officer Ticer, who took him to the station house. He was fined $12.25. William Fountain, colored, was arrested by Officer Goods; charge, disorderly con- duct; he was taxed $5. L. 'H. Kill also imbibed too freely of the intoxicating bowl Saturday night, and was very disorderly when picked Up by Officer Bettis. He was also fined $5. W. C. Capp, William Hammell and John Houton, arrested by Special Officer Loven; charge, trespassing on the property of the Southern railway; fined $3 each.

Dallas Benzett,arrested by Officer Young; charge, shooting a rifle within the city limits; ‘fined $1. Geretta Miller, colored, arrested by Offi- cer Goods; charge, disorderly conduct; dis- missed, the complainant failing to appear. A Thief Becomes Conscience Stricken Several days ago Mr. Raw Davis, who runs a saloon at the corner of Duke and Henry streets, reported to Officer Roberts that some one had broken into his place and stolen a gold watch valued at $80, sev- eral boxes of cigars and $4 in cash. Mr. Davis at first took the matter as a joke, as several times before he has been the vic- tim of just such a proceeding, and his goots have always been returued; but as the days passed and the articles were not returriéd, ‘the case became more serious, and Officer Roberts, who had been at work upon the case, was about to arrest veral parties whom he suspected. He was told by Mr. Davis yesterday, Fowever, that dur- ing Saturday night the party had returned the watch, cigars and money. The arti- cles were found in an empty cracker box. Brutally Assmulted Hix Father. Yesterday ‘afternoon a colored woman made a complaint to Officer Davis that Joseph Level, colorefl, was taking posses- ston of his father’s House on South Colum- bus street. The officer proceeded to the house and placed Level under arrest. This morning he was brought before the mayor, and the eviderce showed that he had a saulted his old father, Iseac Level, and his sisters in a most brutal manner, after which he proceeded to demolish the furni- ture and china ware about the house. ‘The old man is a cripple, and was, therefore, unable to defend himself. The mayor fined him $10, in default of which he will go to jail, subject to the chain gang, for thirty Painfully Injured. Phillip, son of Mr. James Tenneson, met with a painful accident while playing at the ship yard yesterday afternoon. The young boy with a number of companions was jumping from one pile of lumber to ancther, when he slipped and fel], strik- ing both his ankles, cutting a deep gash in each one. He. was carried to his home close by, and Dr. T. Marshall Jones sum- moned. Upon examination it was found necessary to take several stitches in each leg. The boy is resting easily this morn- ing, although he is unable to walk about. Notes. The children’s meeting at the Union Mis- sion tent, on North Washington street, yes- terday afternoon, was largely attended and the exercises very interesting. +4 Alexandria Councit, No. 627, will celebrate Royal Arcanum day, or the anniversary of the crganizdion of the order, tomorrow evening. After the regular meeting re- freshments will be served, and a general good time indulged in. A farge class of children received their first communion at the 7 o'clock mass, in St. Mary’s Catholic Church, yesterday morning. —— Death of Chas. H. Ruoff. Mr. Charles H. Ruoff, one of the best known of Washington's young business men, died Saturday afternoon at his home, 151 8 street northwest, after an illness of about three months. He was a young man of fine business ability and was on the way to prosperity when overtaken by his fatal illness. He has for several years been treasurer of Calvary Baptist Church, having closely identified himself with the affairs of that church. He was thirty-five years old, and leaves a wife and two chiidren.

Work of the Pupils of thé Manual Training School. ‘The annual exhibition of the work of the pupils of the Manual Training School, on O street between 6th and 7th streets north- west, which began Tuesday, closed Friday afternoon. While the display was open to the pub- lic.many prominent persons called at the rooms, and most of them were very com- plimentary in their allusions to the work accomplished. Among the leading persons who visited the rooms were Judge Hagner, Capt. Howe, U.S.A., who is on duty at the Arsenal; District Commissioners Ross, Truesdell and Powell, the members of the board of school trustees (except Dr. Witmer, who is absent in Europe), Messrs. James W. Whelpley, J. J. Darlington, Dr. D. H. Hazen, Jesse H. Wilson, Dr. F. J. Shadd, B. K. Bruce, L. A. Cornish, Maj. George H. Harries, Mrs. L. R. Stowell and Mrs. M. C. Terrell, many of the trustees of the high schools and of the public schools, as well as most of the parents and friends of the pupils. The engine and dynamo, both made in the school by pupils, and by the latter of which the school building is lighted at night with electricity, were operated yes- terday, and worked to the satisfaction of all interested. It was the general opinion of the visitors that while the work shown was along the same lines followed in pre- vious years, there was no doubt that much more skill was shown by the pupils during the year just closed than ever before. Some of the products of the metal de- partment of the Central High School were displayed on the first floor, and they show- ed excellent pract.cal as well as theoretical knowledge of the construction of mechan- ical appliances. The display of wood work was on the second floor. and some fine in- laid work on checker boards, stools and tables and novelties in blacking box con- struction were shown. The staff of the school consists of Mr. J. A. Chamberlain, who has general charge: Messrs. Harry White and P. L. O'Brien, teachers of woodwork: Roy B. Hayes, teacher in turning, and F. E. Skinner, teacher in forging. 5 ——_—>—__ Dissolution of Partnership. Clarendon Smith has filed a bill in equity against Elijah E.

The agitation committee. which is gaged in a war on the brewers, met tas evening and, after the adjournment, it was announced that a number of replies had been received to the circular sent to saloon keepers in reference to the withholding of trade from the brewers, and that the former in most instances declared their intention to comply with the request if the war is not soon settled. At the headquarters of the brewers bine it was today stated that there h: no change in the beer troubles for w eeks past, and that the only way in which the boycott can be settled is by the Federation of Labor and District Assembly No. 66, K. of L., conceding to the brewery employes the right to act for themselves in the mat- ter of joining a unio: — A Boundary Dixpute Settled. The question of the division line between St. Matthew's and Zion Episcopal parishes in Prince George's county, Md., has been decided.

The '96 graduating class of the Business High School spent an enjoyable afternoon and evening on the river Thursday. The steamer Bartholdi, gayly decked with B. H. S. colors, started at o'clock and slow- ily wended its way down the Potomac to Coates’ Point, where varicus games were indulged in until the call for dinner was sounded. Coming back the boat stopped at Marshall Hall, where the exercises of the U. V. L. were enjoyed. As the boat left the wharf the class woke the echoes with the B. H. S. yell. The captain was re- quested by the president, Mr. Kelly, to go slower, as it was more conducive to so- clability, and so the class did t reach the city until midnight. The party was chaperoned by four of the teachers, Misses Throckmorton, Cul- ver, Gibson and North, who managed to maintain dignity and order in the class to the satisfaction of all. Some of those in the party were Misses Mudd, Cramer, Dexter, Gresham, Hiatt, King, Kneessi, Loeffler, Manning, Payne, O'Gorman, Scrivener Simonds and Waugh and Messrs. Archibald, Blanchard, Collins, Duvall, Felter, Grimes, Harper, Hays, Kelly ‘the Kitchin brothers, Littlepage, Pitts, Ross, Shoemaker, Simonds, Somer- ‘yell, Stephen, Stone, Stringer, Walsmith and Clift. ‘The class intends to have another excur- sion to the same place some time in the future. — oo Sunday School Officers Chosen. ‘The newly elected officers of Immanuel Presbyterian Sabbath school for the coming year are as follows: Superintendent, Rev.
