Thomas Varrick Hawkins, the young negro messenger who robbed the safe of District Collector of Taxes Eldred G. Davis the 31st of last month and skipped to Can- ada with over $8,000, was indicted this afternoon for larceny. The indictment charges that Hawkins stole $3,320 from the District of Columbia, and sets forth in de- tail the kind and value of the money stolen. Of currency there were taken 1 $100 bill, 1 $50, 6 $20, 8 $10 and 5 $5; of silver certificates, 14 $100 bills, 5 $50, 150 pes $10, 82 $5, 20 $2 and 172 $1; of United ites notes, 2 $100 bills, 1 $50, 12 $20, 6 $10 and 2 $1, and of treasury notes, 3 $% bills, 1 $2 and 3 $1. The witnesses examined by the grand jury were Collector Davis, Cashier Chas. W. Collnis, Property Clerk Richard Syl- vester and Detective Frank M. Helan. It is expected that Hawkins will be ar- raigned in < few days—some time next week—when, it is understood, he will plead guilty. It is the intention of District At- torney Davis to ask the court to impose the extreme penalty on Hawkins, which is three years’ imprisonment in the penitentiary at hard labor. — NATIONAL GEOGKAPHIC SOCIETY. Interesting and Instructive Program Outlined for the Coming Season. The National Geographic Society will preface the inauguration of its regular lec- ture season for the coming winter with two very interesting special meetings. The first will consist of a gathering at Cabin John bridge next Saturday afternoon at 3 o’clock. In case of decidedly bad weather it will be held the next fair Saturdayp at the same hour. Cars will leave union. station, George- town, the terminus of the Metropolitan and Capital traction lines, via the Georgetown and Great Falls electric railway, at 1:40 and 2 p.m., Saturday, October 2, for Cabin Jokn bridge. Upon arrival, the party will cross the bridge to the hotel and assemble in the pavilion near by, where the field meeting will be called to order by Presi- dent Hubbard promptly at 3 pm. After a brief explanation of pro) plans, Mr. W. J. McGee will give a fifteen minutes’ talk on the “Development of the Geogruphy of the Region,” and a paper, prepared by Capt. D. D. Gaillard, corps of engineers, United States army, will be read, descri tive of Cabin John bridge and the Wasi ington aqueduct. The meeting will adjourn at 3:45 p.m., and opportunity be offered to inspect the bridge and the picturesque country sur- rounding it, under the expert guidance of gentlemen and ladies who have kindly con- sented to assist the committee. Return- ing, cars will start at 5:20 p.m., and arrive in Georgetown at 6 o'clock. A second preliminary event will be an evening reception to Dr. Fridtjof Nansen, the distinguished arctic explorer, at the Arlington Hotel, the evening of Tuesday, October 26, from 9 to 12 o'clock p.m. This will be the first public appearance of Dr. Nansen in America. The program of lectures to be given dur- Ing the coming winter under the auspices of the society will comprise three courses. The popular course will comprise four- teen 1ectures, In the First Congregational Church, 10th and G streets, by well-known speakers, special attention being paid, as usual, to lantern or other illustrations. The technical course, on Friday evenings, alter- nating with those of the popular course, will be held in the large hall of the Co- lumbian University. The illustrated Mon- day afternoon Lenten lectures, fourteen in nymber, will be held in the Columbia Thea- ter, on F street, and will be devoted to a graphic description of the physical and economic features and scenery of the United States, —_—_—_. WHY HE GAVE UP HOME. A Settler's Reasons for Giving Up His Claim. Some time ago the register of the States land office at Wa-Keeney, Kai ed upon a settler to show cause why his claim should not be forfeited. The settler had abandoned his homestead claim in Kansas and moved into Tennessee. His answer. is now preserved as a valuable relic among the archives of the general land of- fice here. It follows: “Answering your favor of the 3d instant, referring to my entry No. 19005, under the hemestead law, will say, that I have no cause to show within the prescribed thirty Gays (nor thirty weeks, nor months even) why my claim should not be forfeited to said piece of land in that arid region where rains are as scarce as the proverbial hens’ teeth and as far between as angels’ visits; where water is more precious than dia- monds; where the lean and hungry coyote barks ever to the majestic silence of the lonely and unpeopled prairies; where the festive jack rabbit wanders unmolested, lordly monarch of all he surveys, and mourns for his lost companions, the In- dian, buffalo and settler, who are not. “I voluntarily surrender all my rigit, title and interest in said land forever and irre- vecably to the eminent domain of our Uncle Sam. Blest be his magnanimous great heart for that beneficent homestead law, that plants the settler on his lonely claim, forty miles from nowhere, and out of God’s knowledge, to delve a fortune from the bosom of mother earth te the tune of blizzards, cyclones, grasshoprers and chinch begs, and after a few short and fitful years fcll of sorrow and hard work he seeks his last and only rest in the besom of that seme mother earth, his only companion in his isolation. “I congratulate his excellency, the Pres- ident, on this magnificent addition to the public domain. I thought it forfeited years agone.” ———_—_——_-e+—___ Order of the Golden Cross. At Goodwill Commandery’s citadel last night, Deputy Grand Commander Ashford, assisted by Department Past Grand Com- mander Conover and Department Grand Herald Allen, installed Miss Ada M. Lee as warder of the inner gate. Under good of the order, Mr. John Musson recited, Prof. Garland guve an organ solo and Grand Commander Fiegenbaum made a brief ad- dress. Messrs. Conover, Macaffee, Moore, Steer, Perry and Brown also spoke briefly. The fourth Monday night in October has been set apart by the commandery for an entertainment night. —_.—_—_ The Congregational “Y.” The preliminary business meeting and social of the Y. W. C. T. U. of the First Congregational Church was held last night at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Montague, the vice president, Miss Grace Ross pre- siding. The members spent a very enjoy- able evening, concluding with musig by Miss Tyson. At the next gathering of the “Y's” election of officers will be held and the plans for the coming winter dis- cussed. The Congregational Young Mei’s Union will hold its preliminary meeting this_evening. —_.___ Escape and Recapture. ; A soldier named Frank Kachelshi, who had been sent to Providence Hospital by the surgeon general of the United States army to await examination as to his san- ity, escaped from that institution about $30 p.m. yesterday by jumping from a first-story window. Being in his night clothes, he was discovered by the male at- tendant, who gave chase. Whea he came but Kachelshi was finally overpowered and returned to the hospital. He will be sent today to the asylum. —_— Down for Thirty Days. i : j Jennie i: ‘ i THE EVENING STAR, UNITED ORDER OF ODD FELLOWS. Committees of the Grand Lodge An- mounced by the Grand Master.

There may be an interesting trial in the Police Court tomorrow morning«of a case involving the alleged theft of an amethyst and diamond ring. The ring was reported stolen yesterday by John S. Wimsatt, who lives at 106 C street northeast, and his re- port stated that it was taken from his daughter's hand while the latter was stand- ing at the front door ‘of the house, as pub- lished in yesterday's Star. Now Miss Rose Wimsatt will have to appear jn court and telt Judge Kimball of the affair at the front door the other night when Harry Loeffler. is alleged to have gone away with her ring. That he had her ring he does not deny, but he also claims that he lost it. . Harry is seventeeen years old, about the age of the former wearer of the ring.. He was arrested this afternoon by Detective Weedon on complaint of Mr. Wimsatt, and when he reached headquarters he discussed the case freely, and said he cid not fear the outcome. According to his story he lives at Colonial Beach, and Miss Wimsatt boarded at his mother’s hotel all the summer. Dur- ing this time they became so well acquaint ed, he says, that each wore the other's rings. This was done several times, and when Miss Wimsatt returned home he call- ed at the house. He states that on the night mentioned in the warrant Miss Wim- satt let him wear her ring and he was told not to let her papa see him with it. He did as he was told, but he supposed the ring was missed from the girl's finger. Un- less bond is furnished for Harry he will spend the night behind the bars and will greet Miss Rose from the prisoner's dock in the morning. His relatives, he says, are all at Colonial Beach, and he fears no one wiil furnish bond for him. ————— MAJOR HARRIES’ METHOD. Plan for Making Appointments in High School Regiment. Major George H. Harries, who, as school trustee, has supervision over matters per- taining to military drill in »the public schools, has decided upon the following method for making appointments in the High School Cadet Regiment: First. Only such candidates shall be ex- amined for these positions as have full and regular standing in their respective schools. This is to be understood as ex- cluding all such as are pursuing spe partial courses, or are deficient, i.e ditioned,” in any branch. In the Central School the seven cadets ranking the high- est may undertake the examination, in the Eastern School the four ranking highest, in the Western School the three ranking highest. In computing scholarship rank all marks shall be included for the cntire time that the cadet has been a member of the school, it being understood that this necessitates three years’ membership of the school and three years’ service as a cadet in_the Washington High School Regiment. Second. The Business High School, heretofore, shall appoint an adjutant for the 2d Battali but is not to compete, on account of the two years’ course of the schcol, for the regimental positions. Third. The examination for these four- teen candidates shall be conducted orally by a board of military officers, of which the military instructor shall be chairman. Fourth. The competition for the inajority of the 1st Battalion shall lie with the can- didates of the Central School; for the ma- jority of the 2d Battalion, with the can- didates from the Eustern and Western Schools. Positions to be competed for in this man- ner shall be as follows: Colonel, lieutenant colonel, regimental adjutant, regimental quartermaster of 1st Battalion, major of 2d Battalion, six in all. es POLICE COURT SENSATION. Mrs, Kraemer’s Solicitude for Her Brother Causes a Scene. After a somewhat sensational scene to- day in the Police Court building, ‘the charge of larcery preferred against Rich- ard J. Toy, a young plasterer of Alexan- dria, by his brother-in-law, Harry Krae- mer, was nolle prossed. Kraemer, who is an actor, complained that Toy relieved him of $20 while on the stage at the Grand Opera House several days ago. Mrs. Hattie Kraemer, wife of the com- plainant, who is a sister of Toy, was very much wrought up by the arrest of her brother. It is said that she threatened to commit suicide if her husband did not withdraw the charge. While on a ferry boat coming from Alexandria to this city it is reported that she declared her inten- tion of jumping overboard, and iast even- ing announced her intention of cutting her throat with a razor. While ascending the stairway at the Po- lice Court building today Mrs. Kraemer, with a scream, suddenly sank to the floor. She was carried to the private office of Asistant District Attorney Pugh. At the request of Mr. Kraemer Assistant District Attorney Mullowny nolle prossed the charge against Toy, and the husband attempted to impart that information to his. wife, but the latter refused to listen. Finally a policeman spoke to Mrs. Krae- mer by no means gently, and promptly convinced her that the prosecution was at end. The woman was quieted,and, embrac- ing her brother, all the parties concerned left the building. ————.—_—_— The Cufew Will Not Ring. There will be no ringing of a curfew in Washington. That is the ultimatum of THE AIR MOTOR TRIALS. Assistant Ensginerr Meoults of the ly Trips. The report of Assistant’ Engineer Bailey, who was detailed to report upon the four- day schedule test of the, atr motor, was submitted to the Emgineer Commissioner late yesterday aftersioon? This report is practically the same as detailed daily from time to time in The Star’s account of the trials: vu oO After setting forth jhe fact that the tests were to include ‘five tripe per day for four consecutive days on“’ rdute running from the Eckington car house to 15th and G streets and return, he gives the number of stops and the amount of air used and then says: 7 On. the third trip, September 22, when the air motor car reached Florida avenue an electric car with forty passengers on board was held up by a breakage cf the the corner of 4th and'T streets. “The third trip'on September 23 was made durirg a violent rain storm. The tracks at Eckington place and Florida ave- nue were covered with water fully a foot deep when the car reached the point going west. The only delay occasioned was by a horse car which had been derailed by the heavy wash. “During the test the car ran with great regularity, being always ready at the ap- pointed times; the only impediment to rapid motion being the slow-moving horse cars running on the same track. The car starts and stops without shock or violence, responding promptly to the work and speed demanded, and runs with little olse or lateral vibration. “The present appliances for compressing and supplying air are crude and imperfect, but with a proper and cconomically ar- ranged plant there the successful operation of the system.” —— If you want anything, try an ad. in The Star. If anybody has what-you wish, you will get an answer. —_-—__ Yearly Feast. The yearly feast of Katzenjammer Mous- taika Tamale, as it is set down on the cards, will be celebrated for the third time next Saturday evening by the Hot Tamale Clubbe, a fun-loving organization composed mainly of students of Columbian Univer- sity. The affair will be celebrated at Reck- ewee’s banquet hail, 630 O street, directly opposite the Central High School, of which most of the Hot Tamales are alumni. The organization was formed three years ago, and has held annual meetings since. It numbers two of the members of the facul- ty of the Central High School as honorary members, and one of these, Prof. Harry English, will act as toastmaster at the coming banquet. Will A. Page, the Bursar of the society, and John W. Brawner, the Sapient Screecher, constitute the commit- charge of the arrangements.
