Private Kelly Makes Hest’ Target Score and Private Beach Carries Off Honors in Drilling. Evening Star Bureau, No. 529 King Street. Bell Telephone No. 106. ALEXANDRIA, Va., June 17, 1897. The second annual excursion of the Alex- andria Light Infantry to River View yes- terday was largely attended, and all pres- ent enjoyed themselves to the fullest ex- tent, notwithstanding that during the even- ing a thunder storm came up, which drove everybody within doors for about an hour. About 600 persons went down on the first trip, but it remained for the 2:30 o'clock boat to take the bulk of the crowd. Upon this trip there were between 800 and 1,000 men, women and children. Siortly after 4 o'clock the shooting con- test, for the handsome gold medal, which has to be won three times in succession to become the property of any one, took pla The successful man wins the honor of wearing the medal until the next con- test. There were thirty-three members €n- tered, and each man was allowed five shots at a tafget 200 feet distant. The marks- manship this year was not as good as usual, owing to the fact that the soldier boys were unable to secure cartridges to practice with, although a requisition had been sent in for them. As will be seen by the score, only two bull’s-eyes were made, the first by Cor- poral Norris and the second by Private Muir. The judges were Privates Charles Stone and Tolbert, and J.

CASE In the cese of Sarah Rankin, the young girl now at the Bruen Home, who journey- ed from Baltimore to Washington over a week ago, and who claimed to have been brought to Baltimore las: fall by a colored soldier from her home near Fort Robinson, Neb., as publisied in The Star of the uth instant, several interesting developments have occurred, and officials in the War Department, as well as those of the Bruen Home, are quiet!y investigating the case. In response to a letter from the corre- sponding secretary of the Bruen Home, Major C. F. Humphrey, quartermaster of the United States army, states that W. H. Blake, the colored Idier who, it is charged, brought the girl to Baltimore last fali, had been furnished transportation to Fort Robiason, December 22 of last year, which indicates that he has re-enlisted. A clipping from Tie Star has becn sent to Fort Robinson, and it is stated tha: if Blake be there at the time tt is received he will be put in irons immediately. The day following the publication of this matter a color:d woman called at the Bruen Home, stating that she was going to Nebraska and offcring to accompany the girl on her way home. The authorities of the home, however, did not put credence in her statement, fearing that the woman was intriguing with the soldier's friends te get the girl in their possession. Fifteen dollars have already been raised toward sending Sarah to her home in Ne- braska. Contributions for this cause are being re-- ceived at the Bruen Home, 1185 9th street northwest. —_+__.

His Satchel Stolen by Colored Youths While He Lay Asleep. William E. King, an ex-soldier, was rob- bed yesterday morning of all his effects not far from Hyattsville. He was on his way afoot from Baltimore to Washington. About 6 o'clock in the morning King, who had been walking all night, lay down by the side of the Carleton mill race and fell asleep. When he awoke his satchel, con- taining all his clothing and some important papers, was gone. He immediately made his way to Hyattsville and reported his loss to the authorities. Constable R. H. Vincent and John Bowles soon learned that four colored youths, strangers in the locality, had been seen going in the direction of Ardwick Station, on the Baltimore and Potomac railroad. Late yesterday afternoon the fugitives were apprehended near Lanham Station and brought back to Bladensburg. Nearly all of King’s effects were found in the possession of the boys, and they were committed to Marlboro’ jail to await the action of the grand jury. The names of the prisoners are William Washington, Edward Ganton, Samuel Branch and Charles Williams, and their place of residence is Atlanta, Ga. Se $5.00 to New k and Return via B. and O. R. R.

THE IRR RESSIBLES, ¥ Threntens the Destrac- tion of the City. During the spring and summer seasons the police are constantly receiving com- plaints against the irrepressible small boy. Congregating on street corners, making loud noises and playing base ball are charges received almost daily, and these complaints give the police more trouble than do the more serious violations of law. Occasionally complaint is made of the smashing of a window, the tearing down of houses or of the threatened destruction of the city. Recently a communication was received which complaint was made that some boys in Southeast Washington were setting off fireworks in a vacant house Major Moore says that some of the com- plaints indicate the probable desiruction of the céy>-mNd one morning, when the question arose of what should be done to keep down the small boys, he asked: What are we to do with Young Ameri- ca?

Detective Carter, who went to New York with the requisition, has returned home. Next Tuesday he will agein go to New York with witnesses in the case, as ihe prisoner will then be given a hearing be- fore United States Commissioner Shields. Bond in the case was fixed at $3,000, and the prisoner, failing to give security, was ccmmitted to Ludlow street jail. ‘The arrest of Price was brought about after considerable trouble and expense on the part of the New York authoritles. When the detectives there had reason to believe that Price was in their city, they naturally enough concluded he would be in hiding in the house of a relative. The Widow Constant. He had a sister named Constant, the, widow of a policeman, who occupied a flat in Harlem. Instead of going there and making a raid on suspicion, and perhaps spoiling their game, they rented a room from the window of which they could see the apartments of Widow Constant. Four or five men were kept on guard, with spy glesses, and for several days they watched house, but saw no one but the widow moving from one apartment to another. Finally, after a long watch, the form of @ man appeared near the window in a room of the Harlem flat. “Can he be the man we want?” one de- tective rsked. “I think he is ‘Johnny’ Price,” came the response, “but I can’t see his face.” The curtain was partly drawn, and’ the man’s face could not be seen from across the street. For two hours or more the man moved about the room, and finally he took 4a seat near the window and began to read a paper. 3 The Officers Recognize Him. “He's the man we're after,” exclaimed one of the detectives. aided another, “he's ‘Johnny* The detectives left their hiding place and went over to Widow Constant’s flat.
