Captain Horton is the solicitor general of Alliance of the United the Pro-Amerfcan States. a Mr. Hoffman, who is also well known in 4 this city, graduated from the Columbian | Academy in 1892, where he took two med- | als, and later became a student at the Co- lumbian University. He was for a time connected with an Armenian bulletin pyb- lished here. Mr. Hoffman is the author of several historical papers on Armenia and the Armeniars, and the house of Lu- signan, and more recently on Miss Clara Barton's labors in Armenia, all of which vere published in some of the leading jour- Ss.

DURLING'S E AND SCHOOL OF SHORT- AND TYPEWRITING COLORED PEOPLE'S’ HOME The Project Oovered by the Bill Introduced by Senator Thurston, 7 The Subject Has Heen Before Con- gress for Some Years and Has Been Favorably Acted i by the House. The report made to the Senate Thursday afternoon by Mr. Perkins, from the com- mittee on education and labor, on a bill introduced in the Sehate by Mr. Thurston by request at the end 6f the last session of Congress, to provide a home for aged and infirm colored people tm the District of Co- lumbDia, revives a subject that has been agi- tated with a good deal of activity in the last two Congresses. ‘Mr. Thurston's bili provides for an appropriation of $100,000 out of all arrears of pay and bounty which are due the estates of deceased colored soldiers who served in the late war to be used for the purpose of erecting a national memorial home for aged and infirm colored People, and to maintain the same tn the District of Columbia upon the land owned by the association, known as “The Home for Aged and Infirm Colored Persons.” The Lill provides that the plans and specifica- tions for the buildings to be erected under this act shall be approved by the Secretary of War. In the last Congress a bill was introduced in the House for this same purpose, was reported favorably by the committee on military affairs, was passed by the House and received a favorable report from a committee in the Senate. When the bill came up for consideration, objection was raised to it whick resulted in killing it in the Fifty-third Congress. In the House of Representatives Mr. Skin- ner introduced a bill providing that the money remaining in the United States treasury, being unpaid bounty and pay to colored soldiers who served in the late war, be distributed among the states of Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas, Arkansas, ‘Tennessee, Missouri and Kentucky, in proportion to the colored Population of each of these states, to be applied by the states for the establishment of a home or homes for the care of aged ard indigent colored people and colored orphans in such manner as the legislatures of these states may provide. This bill was introduced on December 16, 1595, and was referred to the committee on education of the House, but no further action has been taken. he money which is now In the hands o the Secretary of the Treasury and unclalne ed due the estates of deceased colored sol- ders on July 27, 1804, amounted to $230,- 018.84. The law governing the proper ad- judication of claims for this money requires that the heirs of the deceased soldiers shall prove their lawful marriage relations by record evidence. As there was no marriage record of slaves, the money claimed cannot be paid out to individual claimants, and there Is a general disposition in Congress to use it for some purpose which will bene- fit the colored people of the nation at large. It Is argued that the money clearly belongs to the colored people, and numerous plans for distributing it for their benefit have been laid before Congress. The plan pro- posed by Mr. Skinner in the House does not Beem to be as generally acceptable as that outlined in Mr. Thurston's pill in the Sen- ate, because it Is believed the sum to be distributed ts not large enough to produce Practical good effects if divided among so many states as Mr. Skfhyer's plan contem- plates. Shyer p Mr. Thurston's plan, ig practically that which secured the approtal of the House of Representatives and the committee on the District of Columbia, in the last Con- gress. In 1803 a number of cotored men in the District of Columbia formed a corporation for the purpose of eStablishing and main- taining a home for aged and infirm col- ored people throughout! the country, and by private subscription have acquired a tract of land in the District sufficient in area for the erection’of a suitable hdme, and since that time the “promoters of this project have constantly ‘urged upon Con- gress the propriety of appropriating money for that purpose frome the fund belonging to the estates of colored ex-Union sol- diers. When the matter was agitated in the last Congress it ras argued that there were at that time only ten colored people permitted admittance: in. the charitable in- stitutions of the District of Columbia ‘on account of a lack of accommodations, and those were provided for in the basement of the Children’s Asylum on 8th street. if the $100,000 were set aside for this purpose It would erect in-the District_a commodious home and endow it with sufficient funds to maintain in comfort a large number of indigent colored people. Now that Mr. Thurston’s bill is before the Senate it Is believed its passage is practi- cally assured, and as the House of Repre- sentatives In the last Congress indorsed a similar measure, {it {s also thought that it can be passed in that body before the end of the session. PASSE! ERS +e. TOSSED ABOUT. The Steamer Germanic Had a Rough ~ Passage ‘The White Star liner Germanic arrived at her dock yesterday in New York after a particulerly rough passage. The log shows that Wednesday she ran into “a whole gale’ from the northeast. No damage was sustained by the steamer, but the passen- gers were badly shaken up. H. Thorpe was thrown violently out of bed, and sustained a slight injury to his spine. D. S. Taylor, while walking across the smoking room, was thrown with great force against the wainscoting and was badly cut over the right eye. Miss L. B. Sare of London, On- tario, and a writing desk at which she was seated were sent flying across the room. The young lady was severely injured by striking against the desk. She was hysteri- cal for several hours after the incident. Among the passengers on board the stcamer was Winfield Smith of Milwaukee, fermerly attorney general of Wisconsin, and law partner of the late United States Senator Matt. H. Carpenter. Before 9 o'clock ten steamships, coasters and transatlantic liners passed Sandy Hook and steamed up to their piers. All of them bad encountered rough weather, and their captains told of fatiguing fights against Peavy winds and high seas. None of them was damaged in the conflict with the ele- ments, hut all were more or less behind the schedule time. For twenty-two hours the steamship Phil- adelphia, which came from Spanish Ameri- can ports, was unable to make any head- way against the northwest gale which the vessel met Wednesday morning. Similar stories of the storm were related by the masters of the Norge, Yucatan and St. Helena. ——— - +e<______ POISON IN THE COFFEE. Several Children Died—Pareyts Out of Danger. Joseph, the three-year-old son of Joseph and Frances Novak of ,Syracuse, N.

The parenis are out of danger and one other of the children, who was also poisoned, is on theeway to recovery. Stanislaus Wesloski and his wife, who were arrested, charged with tht embezzlement of Mr. Novak's bank account, are still in con- finement.

Chilean advices state that Sunday, No- vember 17, the steamer Chantery, belonging to Lamport & Hill of Valparaiso, went on the rocks at Horcon 4bolt 1,000 feet from the spot where the ‘Kosmos company’s steamer Pentaur was wrecked last Jui: The passengers and crew took to the boats and: were safely landed. The Chantery had a cargo of 1,359 tons at the time of the acci- dent, a part that had been stowed forward being saved. This comprised 756 sacks of coffee and cocoa from Guayaquil, 310 sacks of coffee, 1,657 sacks of ore and 51 hides. Delicately Stated. Frem the New Yyrk Herald, : She—“Your brother dead?
