Early last night there was some excite- ment caused in the park in front of the fifth precinct station, in Southeast Washington, when Mrs. Mary Russell of No. 325 Mechanics’ place met her hus- band, she claims, in company with a wo- man. Alfred P. Russell is the husband, and is a discharged employe of one of the railroad companies. The police say that when the wife met her husband with the weman she procecded to take him to task about his conduct, when, she charges, he assauited her. The wife’s screams attract- ed the attention of the police in the sta- .tion, and Policeman McKie, who was among those to respond, arrested the hus- band on a charge of assault. Just about that time the report of a pistol shot was heard and it was’rtmored that ‘a woman had been shot, but such was not the case. This morning when ‘Russell appeared in Judge Mills’ court he demanded a jury trial and the case went over. W. J. McNamara and Capitola McNam- ara, his wife, figured in a case of wife beating, the husband being behind the bars. They have been married just about twelve months and he has been arrested at least three times for abusing Capi- tola. “I have not lived with him since Mon- day, when he got out of jail,” the wife said, “and he’s been staying next door to my house.” She charged that he came in the house yesterday and assauiled her. “I didn't assault her,” the husband said, “and another thing, she’s been going down the river with a marricd man. She didn’t have the best name in the world when I married her, and then she was not satis- fled to do better when I gave her my name.” “He's been in jail before,” said the wife, “and he knows what he has said about me is not true.” “And she said she was going to send me to jail for a year,” said the man, assum- ing the role of a much-abused husband, “and it’s all spite work.” “I'm not going to send you away for a year,” the judge told him, “you are fined $10 or thirty days. ——__ Marriage Licenses.

END OF AN ACTIVE CAREER Prominent in the West and a Well- Known Washingtonian. A NATIVE OF SCOTLAND Judge Arthur MacArthur, formerly as- sociate justice of the District Supreme Court, died yesterday afternoon at Atlantic City, N. J., where he went three weeks ago for the benefit of his health. The news was received in this city last night, and was not entirely unexpected to the many friends and acquaintances of the deceased who were aware of the feeble condition of his health. Judge MacArthur had reached the advanced age of eighty-one, his birth- Judge Arthur MacArthur. day having occurred last January. He had, however, enjoyed vigorous health up to within a few years past. Last spring he had an at-ack of illness, from which he never fully rallied. His wife was with him at the time of his death. Judge MacAr- thur leaves one son, Col. Arthur M. Mac- Arthur of the United States army. During his long Pesidence in this city, occupy as he did an important judicial posi and endowed with social qualiti brought into contact with a large of people and made may warm fricnds acquainiances, who will hear, with sin regret, of bis death, He was a man fine presence, of genial of manner and of philanthropic impulses, and he occupied an important piace in the life of this sity eral Arrangements, The body is expecied to reach ‘his city at 3:30 this afternoon, and will be taken to the family residence, 120] N street. Col- onel MacArthur, the son of the deceased, who is in Texas, has been notitic it should be learned that he desires come on in time for the funeral the se ices will not be held probably until Sat- urday. A Native of Glangow. He was born in Glasgow, Scotland, Jan- uary 26, 1815, and came of an ancicat and distinguished family. His father died when he was an infant, and he was brought over to this country when a mere child. Me re- ceived his education at Amherst College and at the Wesleyan University in Middle- town, Conn., after which he studied law in New York, and was admitted to the bar in 1840, He practiced in that city and in Springfield, Mass., for some years with marked success. While residing in Spri field he was appolited public adminis:rator for Hampden county, and was judge advo- cate for the western military district of the state. In 1549 he went west and estublish- ed himself in Milwaukee, where Le at once became prominent and attained a high Standing at the bar. Two years later he was elected city attorne; In 15 he was elected lieutenant governor of Wisconsin, and served part of the time as goveraor during the vacancy caused by the cesigna- tien of Governor Barstow. Before his term of office as Meutenant governor expired, he was elected judge of the second judicial circuit—the most im- portant in the state—and in this position he became one of the most populir men in Wisconsin, filling the office with honor to himself and to the satisfaction of the peo- ple. He was re-elected for a second term, after the expiration of which he went to the Paris cxposition of 1867 as one of the United States commissioners. Appointed Judge. In 1870 he was appointed by President Grant an associate justice of the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia. From that time on Judge MacArthur was a con- spicuous character in Washington. Much of the time he presided in the Criminal Court, and it was generally supposed that his tender disposition and generous im- pulses somewhat influenced his d cisions and prevented his administration of vere sentences. The record does not sustain this impression, however, which was doubt- less created by his mild and gentle manner in the court room. In 1888 Judge MacArthur resicned his fosition on the bench, under the act of Congress which permits federal ju retire upon full pay after having the age of seventy years, and after served at least ten years. Judge MacArthur was seventy-three y, of age at the time he retired, and had served seventeen years upon the federal bench, which, tozether with the two terms he served on the cir cult bench in Wisconsin, gave him a judicial career of at least thirty years. it is owing to his industry that the cases decided in the courts of the District are reported in such a way as to be available for the profession. There had been no re- Ports of the decisions of the District Su- preme Court since 1840, and Judge Mao- Arthur, to supply this want, undertook the task of reporting the decisions of the court in bano, beginning in 1873. He has publish- ed four volumes of these decisions. This was a labor without compensation and was undertaken simply that the law as decided might be preserved and made known in permanent form. Ans a Literary Man. Judge MacArthur was singularly well in- formed in Mterary affairs and was a fre- quent contributor to the newspapers and magazines. He was the author of the fol- lowing works: “Education in R: fon to Manual Industry,” “A Biography of the English Language from the Earliest Times, With Notices vf Its Authors, Ancient and Modern;" “An Historical Study of Mary Stuart, Comronly Caled Mary, Queen of Scots, Recounting the Principal Events of Her Life and Illustrating the Injustice That Has Been Done Her Memory and Character;” “A Series of Twelve Lectures on the Law as Applicable to a Business Education” and “Addresses and Papers on Various Subjects.” During his entire career he showed great interest in the charitable and educational institutions of the community. For many years he was president of the Washington Hvmane Society and of the Associated Charities of the District. At the time of his death he was also chancellor of the National University and president of the board of regents of that institution. The regular meeting of Columbia Lodge, No. 1, Order Sons of Hermann, Wednesday night, was not only an interesting, but @ very important one. Articles of incorpora- ticn, as drafted by Mr. Bender, were read and adopted, and the trustees were ordered to file them with the proper authorities, A clause under business and objects of this society states, among others, the following purpose: “Assisting German immigrants in obtaining their naturalization papers” by instructing them, free of charge, in the rinciples of the Constitution of the United Rtates and in civil government. A commi! tee, consisting of Gustave Bender, B. Schubert and Wm. L. Elterich, was ap- pointed to carry out this purpose. As trus- tees for the first year were elected J A. Kaschka, T. L. Schmidt and Henry FB,
