The return in question deals with the performances of one hundred and one ships of all types, from battle ships to sunboats, and furnishes a record of the number of hits made by each vessel when carrying out what is known in the navy as prize firing. This is an annual competition, for the purposes of which special targets are util- ized, and only actual hits are recorded in favor of the inarksmen. These targets are tionary, and the ships steam round m at bout eight knots speed, the range ying considerably, but easilyeto be de- ined by shots from the smaller quick- tring: gun: It must be confessed that the firing was extremely inaccurate in some of the British nips, and more especially with the guns { large caliber. One battle ship fired sev- en rounds from her 12-inch gun with- scoring a hit, another sixteen rounds h similar result, while the worst case s that of a battle ship which scored only teo hits out of seventy-three rounds from s of all types. ‘m the other hand, the Barfleur made ty-five per cent of hits with her 10-inch ns, and the Imperieuse (the best ship of fleet for the year) scored 81 per cent of 3 with her large guns and 62 per cent th her Ginch guns. eee Singing Among the Greeks. Drom Lippincott’s. Our present system of instruction is not so modern as some would have us believe. Sparta had her state superintendeat, who— if distant report 1s to be trusted—was an al despot. But while he wielded walking stick freely during official its, and encouraged his subordinates to the rod on all occasions, he was as igent a promoter of music as is any hu- ne and progressive educator of our era. As a result, the little Lacedaemonians sang Lithely, no matter what torment was go- ing on under their tunics. And all over sreece, im those dim days, were schools, ranging from infant grades instructed un- «r Arcadian hedges to university exten- nm schemes harbored in buildings unique- termed “places of leisure.” The infants re drilled in their alpha-beta-gammas: the older boys were taught poetry and xymnastics, with something of arithmetic, seometry and drawing: and adults spent their leisure with rhetoricians and sophists, paying handsomely for the privilege. But music was a sine qua non of Grecian life, in school and in sport, in battle and in vurtal. The epic and elegiac chanting at restivalg, the calm speculations of Pytha- Soras as to the music of the spheres, the choral outburst of “the great fifth cen- tury,"the martial odes of Tyrtacus and Pin- dar, all show the national love for melody of voice as well as for high and harmonious thoughts. An old-time Greek set down emid the strident, metallic voices of our ceeidental world would feel that the Furies bad seized either upon him or the continent ne was visiting. ee hae It matters little what it is that you want vhether a situation or a servant—a “want” ad. in The Star will reach the berson who can fill your need. educatic his ply « price—just as we promised.

Condition of John Campbell, Shot by Jail Guard, Reported as Improv- ing—General and Personal. Evening Star Bureau, No. 529 King S:., Bell Telephone No. 106. ALEXANDRIA, Va., August 5, 1897. In the police court this morning a young man named James Cook was fined $10 and sentenced to thirty days in jaii for stealing a bicycle from William McCuen. From the evidence it appears that young Cook lifted the wheel from the residence of Mr. J. H. Cook yesterday afternoon and tceok it down to Mr., Hugh Strider’s junk skop, where he offered it for sale. Not being willing to pay the price, Mr. Strider asked a young man to purchase it, which he is said to have done, paying $20 therefor. When it was learned that the wheel had been stolen Cook was arrested. A small part of the money, between $4 and $5, is understood to have been found on him. The result of the investigation was his commitment and the return of the bicycle to the owner. - John Campbell's Condition. The condition of Mr. John Campbell, who was shot by Guard McCuen during an ai- leged attempt of the former to break jail Tuesday night, is said to be improved to- day. C. N. King, assistant superintendent of the Maryland house of correction, eame here yesterday afternoon to take Campbell back, but upon the advice of the jail physi- cian, it was deemed wise to wait a few days. It is also said that Campbell will re- fuse to return without requisition papers. The story told by Campbell of bad treat- ment while in the Maryland house of cor- rection is said by Mr. King to be utterly false. There is a vast difference of opinion as to the propriety of shocting Campbell by Guard McCuen without first warning him to-desist in his alleged attempt to break Jail. Some believe he did right, in view of the fact that Campbell had attempted to escape from Sheriff Palmer, and proved himself to have been a desperate man, while cthers claim that McCuen should have used persuasive methods, and adopt- ed the shcoting as a last resort. The jail officials are of the opinion that McCven did perfectly right. Complaint Against Night Police. Lieut Smith claims that for the Past severa: nights, in making his rounds, the men on duty failed to respond to whistles. The men were reported te the mayor, who, after thorough investigation, exonerated them from blame, they having given sat- isfactory excuses, which were corroborated. Examinations of Teachers. The examination of applicants for posi- tions as teachers in the colored public schools was begun by Superintendent K. Kemper this morning, and will be contin- ued tomorrow. The examinations of white applicants were concluded yesterday. George Cleveland's Condition. George Cleveland, who was so seriously wounded by a bullet from a pistol in the hands of Mr. F. W. Browner, last week, in an alleged attempt to hold him up, was reported as “just about the same” at the Alexandria Infirmary this morning. The matron states that he fs “holding his own nicely.” It is believed he will recover. bs Mrs. Riley Dead. Mrs. Mary E. Riley, an aged and well- known resident, died at her home in West End yesterday afternoon about 4 o'clock. The funeral services will be held from her late home tomorrow afternoon, at 4:30 o'clock. Overcome by Heat. Mr. Frank Deeton of this city, who was at work painting a building in West End yesterday, was overcome by heat in the afternoon. He was brought to his honte in this city in an unconscious condition, where medical attention was rendered, und today he is much improved. Again Disappointed. The members of the 3d Regiment, Vir- ginia Volunteer Field Band, are again a disappointed, disgruntled set of men. They had expected by this time to be snugly in camp at Chapel Point, but the tents to be used have so far failed to arrive from headquarters, although a letter has been received stating that they had been ship- ped. They have hopes of receiving them in time to leave next Tuesday morning. Fell From a Car. Ralph Roach, trolleyman on the electric train which left this city at 11 o'clock last night, fell from the car while it was round- ing Hooff’s run curve, and was not missed until the train reached the power house. The ¢onductor of a passing train was no- titled to look out for him, and he was found at the run. He was considerably bruised, but, fortunately, not seriously injured. He was taken to Mr. Crook’s house, where ‘he necessary medical attention was rendered. Brevities. Mr. D. R. Stansbury, clerk of the com- ™mon council, with his three children, Edith, Herbert and Blanche, are spending the summer at Yale cottage, Bglivar Heigh‘s, Harper's Ferry, W. Va.

District Engineer Department Making Needed Repairs. Arrest of a Tramp in Ballston for Alleged Attempt at Assauit— Real Estate Matters. The District repair brigade is making a number of minor improvements. A force of laborers commenced yesterday to pave the alley in the square between 31st and 32d streets, opening into the south side of Dumbarton avenue. Vitrified brick is used as a paving material. A number of old lamp posts on M street ard 32d street, rendered useless by the introduction of electric lights, are being removed and taken to other sections of the city. Cement sidewalks will be laid in front of premises 3350, 3352 and 3354 M street, un- der the permit system, at an estimated cost of $166. Quietly Married. A quiet wedding was solemnized at 12 o'clock today at the residence of Justice Oliver P. Johnson of No. $227 N street, the contracting persons being his only daughter, Miss Olia F. Johnson, and the grcom Mr. James W. Hummer, formerly of Virginia. The ceremony was perform- ed by Rev. J. W. Beall, and was wit- messed by only a few persons. After the ceremony the young couple started for a short wedding trip. Attempted Assault. A tramp, whose name was not given, is reported to have been arrested yesterday in Ballston, Va., near the Aqueduct bridge, on the charge of attempting a criminal assault upon the nine-year-old daughter of G. J. Pollins, a merchant there. Speedy trial was given the accused before Mag- istrate Hall, and while the charge was not fully sustained there was sufficient evidence in the case, in the estimation of the justice, to warrant his commitment, and he accordingly sent the man to the Alexandria county jail for a term of ninety days. The circumstances related of the alleged crime are that the child was playing in the grounds adjoining the Presbyterian Church. The tramp emerged from a clump of bushes adjacent and endeavored to take hold of her, wien she ran ecreaming to the street and aroused the neighborhood. A crowd pursued and caught the hobo, and a speedy trial resulted. The fellow protested bis innocence. He said he had merely call- ed to the little girl, but had no intention whatever of molesting her. Accused of Playing Policy. Abraham Johnson and James W. Thomp- son, colored, were arrested yesterday after- noon by Policeman Watson, who is detail- ed to act on policy cases, and locked up at the seventh precinct police station. The two were arrested on suspicion of being runners for the policy concerns over in Rosslyn, though both strenuously denied their guilt. When searched at the station some policy drawings were found on Johnu- scn, but nothing discovered to incriminate Thompson, a deck of greasy cards being the only stuff taken from him. Both men were held, however, and were taken to Police Court this morning. ‘ Real Estate Transfers. There were two transfers of real: estate yesterday in the American University Park subdivision. John’D. Croissant and David D. Stone, trustees, sold to James L. Giles lots ene) piece 28, for $1,200. The same Parties sold to N. W. Chappell lots 23 and 24, of block 34, for $1,000. eee Heat Overcame Him. Elijah Churchill, colored, while at work in Johnson’s wood and coal yard on K Street, was taken suddenly ill yesterday afternoon, caused by the heat. He was removed to his home at 2716 Poplar street in the patrol wagon. Complain of the Tracks. The citizens of the neighborhood desire The Star to call the attention of the proper authorities to the wretched, manner in which the car track is laid on Prospect avenue between 36th and 37th streets. The rails are six inches above the roadway, rendering it almost impossible for any vehicle to cross the street. - ee Women in Sleeping Cars. From the San Francisco Call. “The first thing a woman does on enter- ing a sleeper is to count the number of wemen and children present and make her plans accordingly. There is a difference of opinion as to whether it is better to de- scend to the toilet room early or late. Thers are disadvantages about both plans. It is simply impossible to get ahead of the woman who is always there first. She is @ disagreeable person, who takes possession at some uncanny hour and locks herself in and others out.

The Senators will take a rest today, no game veing scheduled for them at Brook- lyn until tomorrow, when King or McJames will try the throwing down act once more. Poor Jack Gilroy, the Washington boy, who has been playing with the Nor- folk club of the Virginia League this sea- son, died last night at St. Vincent's Hos- pital in that city, after a month’s illness. He had had several operations performed for appendicitis, but without relief. His mother was with him during the past week or two. Gilroy was bought from the Wash- ington club last year, and was a very suc- cessful and popular player. He started Playing professionally with the Staunton club of the Virginia League in 1895. Pre- vious to that time he was a bright particu- lar star in the Departmental League, being able to play any position on the diamond, and play it well. Pugnacious Tim. Hurst went a little too far with his scrappy inclination yesterday at Cincinnati, and as a result he was placed under arrest and had to be bailed out by an official of the local club. After making a bad decision for the home club, an unknown spectator threw a beer glass at Hurst, the missile rolling at his feet. Timothy grabbed it on the instant and fired it back, missing the right man, of course, and striking an innocent onlooker in the forehead, inflicting a deep gash. The mob made a rush for the umpire, but the police escorted him off the field and later placed him under arrest. This incident will about close Hurst's career as an umpire. It is reported that Boston is hot after Pitchers Kennedy of the Brooklyns and McJames of the Washingtons, and that the Beaneaters stand ready to give $10,000 for the former and $7,000 for the latter. Mr. Wagner has emphatically declared that he will sell no more players, and the Wash- ington enthusiasts can rest assured that the pitching physician wiH remain a Sena- tor. The Colonels made a good trade yester- Gay when they secured Pitcher Dad Clarke for Right Fielder McCreary. The latter was dissatisfied with his berth in Louis- ville and the former had few friends in the New York team, principally on account of winning their money at poker, it is said. This ceal would take a humorous turn now, if the Bostons would make some sort of trade that would land Clarke in their ranks. The New Yorks kept Clarke away from Boston for fear of strengthening that team. .Capt. Joyce now has Wilmot, Holmes and McCreary to guard his outfield in case Tiernan or Van Haltren should fall down. Bill, evidently, has an eye out for some of that Temple Cup money. Pitcher Amole, who has been farmed out to the Reading team by the Baltimores all this season, has been recalled by Hanlon and will join the Orioles at once, pitching his first game at Providence next Sunday. Manager Long of the Readings wanted Maul or Horton in exchange, but Hanion couldn’t see it that way. Pitcher Kitson of the Burlington club of the Western Association has been signed by the Heston club and will undoubtedly strengthen the pitching corps of that club. Kitson hss been “tipped off” as a coming pitcher for several months past, but the money to buy him could only be raised by the Bostons. True sporting blood over there. With Sheridan, Hurst and Emslie off the umpire staff, President Nick Young will have ‘to do considerable hustling to fill the ‘oid. The loss is felt more in the west than in the east, but Fred Pfeffer will probably be secured for a permanent posi- tion, and Tim Keefe given another chance in the big league. The bleacherites in Boston don’t like First Baseran Tenney. They roast him on every possible occasion. His way of con- ducting himself on the field, which they seem to think shows conceit, is the cause of his unpopularity. A good umpire is worth as much as the best player in the league, and he is more important to the prosperity of the game. Gcod ball players receive a salary of about $2,500 per season; umpires receive half that amount. Any wonder we do not have bet- ter umpires ?—Philadelphia Ledger. The dervishes who have been claiming all aiong that Joyce is “sore” on Mike Sulll- van, who, together with Dad Clarke and Seymour, will be “traded,” will be sur- prised to learn that Joyce says he would not let any of his pitchers go for big mon- ey. “If I had let Dad Clarke go to the Bostons,” said Scrappy yesterday, “he would now be pitching winning bail and the Bestons would be strengthening their lead.” Joyce has treated his men with the utmost fairness, so all the players say.— New York Sun. The Cincinnati club has engaged dressing rooms outside of but in the neighborhood of the Polo Grounds, New York. It is sup- posed that Freedman will not allow the Reds to dress in the club house, and Man- ager Joyce said recently to a Sun reporter that the Reds would not be admitted until thirty minutes before the game, and then would be allowed fifteen minutes’ practice and no more, either before or after the game. Joyce declared that he was justified by the alleged “shabby” treatment of the New Yorks while in Cincinnati by Manager Ewing. All of which is very small and dis- gusting and unworthy of the national game. —Baltimore Sun, v paaieats EVERHARD BESTS SPIDER KELLY. Clubs. Beston. . Baltimore. Cincinnati. Pas byntane New Yor! .

Dunn was on the rubber for the home club, and he had the visitors guessing throughout the contest. Several times the Washingtons would have runners on first or second, but the necessary hit to advance them toward home was not forthcoming. But six safe hits were secured by the Sena- tors, Capt. Tom Brown getting two of these, one being a two-bagger. Mercer was on the rubber and pitched a better game than the score indicates, the eleven singles secured by the Brooklyns being widely Scattered, and except in the eleventh inn- ing, amounted to nothing. Neither side got a runner across the home plate in the first four innings, but in the fifth the Trolley Dodgers broke the ice, one tally being placed to their credit. Catcher Grim hit into left for two bases and went to third on Wrigley’s fumble of a hard hit grounder, and then home when “Germany” Smith hammered a nice single into center. Neither sidé scored in the sixth, but in the lucky seventh the Washingtons tied the score. De Montreville opened up well with a single to left, but was forced by Farrell at second. Tommy Tucker then pasted a slow one into right field for two bases, chasing Farrell to third. The latter then scored the tying run on O'Brien's out to Jones on a fly in right. Four innings went by for the Senators without a run being made, and three for the Brooklyns, when the latter came up for their last turn at the bat in the elev- enth.

In the second centest the Spiders played without life, and the Colonels walked away with the game by the score of 7 to 4. Burkett had to be taken from the second game by two policemen.

Larned ts pretty sure of beating Eaves, and Bob Wrenn is thought to be able to beat Mahony. If either should fail, however, George Wrenn may save the team by defeating Nisbet. Those who saw both play téday believe that he can do so. The heat yesterday was certainly a han- dicap in favor of the American team, and the Britishers did not like it a little bit. Mahony remarked after the match: “Well, that’s just like playing in a hothouse. I don’t mind the sun so much, but the hot air is simply awful. I couldn't get my breath at all.” Should tomorrow's weather prove as stifling as yesterday afternoon the home talent is pretty sure of success, but with’ cooler weather it will be any- body’s victory. ne Eaves and Wrenn Matched.

It took Eaves longer to beat young Wrenn than either Larned to beat Mahony or Bob Wrenn to beat Nisbet. Eaves won the toss, and began to serve, with’ the sun at his back. He won the first game to thirty, but lost the second. Games then alternated up to two-all, when Eaves got three games in succession, and then took the set, after losing the eighth game. The second set was much like the first, Eaves running five straight games, after Wrenn had got 2—1 in his favor. In the third set, however, the play was much closer, and Wrenn began to pull up stead- ily atter 3—1 had been scored against him. He took three straight games and then the set, after. Eaves had won the ninth. Eaves seemed to be much bothered by the heat. He chewed cracked ice most of the time and drank mineral waters to keep cool.

The young Englishman was making a fight against the inevitable de- feat much like that of George Wrenn on the next court, although with hardly as much success. The first and second sets were both easy for the American, but after getting a icad of 4-1 in the third Wrenn seemed to slack off a little, just as Haves had done, and Nisbet crawled up to four all. A long deuce struggle followed, which was finally won by the American player only after sixteen games had been played. Wrenn had the vantage game every time, and finally won the last game to thirty. ‘The heat seemed to affect Nisbet also, and he complained of ii after the match. Score: FIRST SET. While the other two matches were in progress, the big crowd had surged around Larned’s court, and the way he was beat- ing the Irish expert just tickled them. The applause for the American’s brilliant strokes was almost continuous, and when he pulled out of the second set, making the last point on a most brflliant pass from the base line by Mahony at the not, the round of cheers that greeted the American showed more enthusiasm than any of the other matches had produced. Larne@ Bests Mahony. Throughout the first set, the American kept just one game ahead of Mahony, and he seemed to hold him safe from the start. The awkward but effective style of the visitor excited much comment, and more than one of the spectators laughed when he made one of his ungainly back- hand side-line passes, but when they saw it strike the line and the white dust fly up, they opened their mouths in surprise and did not laugh again. Over and over again, the Irishman curved the ball in from out- side of the. edge of the court, and it just landed of Larned’s side-line after passing him safely at the net. But the American’s persistent net tactics ‘were too much for the visitor, and he made many glever smashes of apparently safe returns. It was pretty tennis all the way througa, and as scientific as any seen kereabouts for many years. After Larned bad taken the first set, Mahony made a-| spirited brace-and soon scored a lead in the second of four games to two. As usual, Larned was equal to the occasion, however, and he pulled himself together and took the next two games after deuce had been called in each. Then the foreigner got 5—4, but again the American came back and tied the score once more, and ran out the set with the next two games, giving him two sets to love. : The last set was shorter than either of these preceding. Larned led off with a lead of 4—1, and Mahony seemed to have deciding match of the day, and Larned’s svecess gave the victory to the American team -by two matches to one, and offset Tuesda’ defeat.
