At Fairfax Court House Thursday after- noon the jury in the case of the common- wealth against Lovelace Brown, colored, who was charged with the murder of his son, brought in a verdict of murder in the second dsgree, and fixed the penalty at twelve years in the penitentiary. Inas- much as Brown is now sixty-seven years of age, this is practically a life sentenc>. Brown, it will be remembzred, shot and almost instantly killed his son,, Ulysses, near Mero Post Office, in Fairfax county, a few miles below this city, several months £go, an account of which appeared in The Star at the time. Brown then claimed that the killing was in zelf-defense; that his son had attempted to brain him with a wagon seat, and that he had been compel- led to shoot to save his life. This plea, how?2Vver, was not substantiated by the evi- dence, and while it could not be established that the murder was a premeditated one, the jury agreed that it was, to say the least, a case which justified a s2vere pen- alty. The verdict is generally regarded as just. Up to the time of this shooting Lovelace Brown had borne an excellent reputation. He was known as a reliable man, and was respected as such. His many friends re- gret deeply that a burst of temper should have brought him into such an unfurtunate predicament. Unless an appeal is taken Brown will be conv>yed to the state penitentiary at Rich- mond in a few days. —_—.—— FORFEITS HIS COLLATERAL. Result of an Arrest for Cruelty to Anima Frank M. Hains, superintendent of the Capital Railway Company, charged with cruelty to animals, forfeited $25 collateral in the Police Court. This is the cas2 in- volving a test made at the stables of the electric road after the alleged injury to the horse of Mr. Middleton on the tracks on M atre2t. For the purpose of making an experiment, it 1s said, a horse was bought for $2.50 and 550 volts of electricity were applied to it. The application was made a second time, and afterward the animal was shot. Agents Reiplinger and Rabbitt of ths Hu- mane Society made an investigation of the case and preferred charges against several persons, including two veterinary surgeons. Th> case was set for trial yesterday morn- ing, but Mr. Hains assumed responsibility in the matter and forfeited the collateral. Speaking to Prosecuting Attorney Pugh about the case, Mr. Hains said the electric- ity had no effect whatev2r on the animal. A similar amount of electricity, Mr, Hains said, had been applied to himself several times without injury. The shooting of the animal, he said, had no connection with the electrical experim:nt, and the animal was to have been sent anyhow to the bone yard to be killed, which was the reason is was selected. ———————— Wild Anima’ The Biological Society holds its regular meeting at 8 p.m. Saturday, April 23, at the Cosmos Club. Mr. Ernest Seton Thompson, the well-known illustrator of animals, will give a lantern lecture on the “Personality of Our Wild Animals.” Nu- merous drawings, sketches and photo- graphs from wild animals in their native haunts will be used as slides to illustrate the wild creatures at home. ———es LOCAL STOCK BOARD, General Public to Be Admitted to the Daily Meetings. Arrangements are being made in the rooms at 1335 F strect, occupied by. tha Washington Stock Exchange, so that the public can attend the daily meetings if it is s0 desired. It has been the custom up to the present time for only members of th> board to have access to the rooms, and when outsiders have been present they have done so as the invited guests of mem- bers. Now, however, it is proposed to have a place set apart for the use of all who may wish to be present and see how the quotations of local securities ar> made. For the present, at least, the general public and the members will be on the same floor level, but in the event th2 latter be- come as demonstrative as is the custom of members of similar organizations in other cities, then, perhaps, for the safety of the spectators, a gallery will b2 provided for their use. The Sa Order for Signal Pistols. Another order for one hundred signal pis- tols has been received at the navy yard, with instructions that the work on them be pushed as rapidly as possible. Work on @ rec2nt order is about finished. These piste! it 1s stated, cost the government about $35 each and can be made in much Jess time at the navy yard than at private stablishments. Work on the 5-inch and 6-inch guns for auxiliary cruisers is being rushed, as the demand for th2m at this time is very large. There are two shifts of men ut work in the yard, as heretofore published in The Star, sand tuaraeinted extra day force employed cn some of the more particular work that cannot w2ll be done by gas light. The forces of men at Fort Washington and Sheridan’s Point are working night and day, and it is stated that the mines in the river are now in good shape. Notice has been served on the local steamboat companies that no mor2 passen- Bers are to be landed at Sheridan's Point unless they are connected with the fortifi- cations or have a pass from Capt. Walker, the officer in charge. No such order con- cerning Fort Washington has bzen made. It is explained that passengers landed at Sheridan's Point are compelled to pass through the works in order to reach the country roads. At Fort Washington such is not the case. —— That valuable property 1416 I street porehwese will be sold at auction Monday 5 p.mt., by order of the executor.—Advt. > Ladies See Fatima. Fatima, the great $50,000 nude painting, which has been attracting large crowds for the past month, is spoken of highly by the art-loving public. Mr. Clover, the artist, has made a life-long study of this branch of art and has reached the highest pinnacle in reproducing life and nature to the ex- tent that it is deceptive to the eye. The ladies visiting Fatima find it doubly inter- esting as the artist's wife is there to re- ceive them.

Se Punishment Meted Out. Policemen Dennis O'Donoghue, F. P. Smith and G. 8, Cotts, tried March 26 for neglect of duty, have each been fined $2.50 by order of the District Commissioners. The Commissioners have dismissed the charge preferred against Policeman R. D. Herbert of neglect of duty. Private F. J.

Ticre are many of the season tick- ets in use which have not been paid for, and the board of control, at last night's meeting, issued a request urging all Masons who have not settled for such tickets to do so at once. It was also de- cided that tickets rot paid for would not be included in those among which the valuable prizes will be divided. The booth of De Molay Mounted Com- mandery is one of the most attractive at the Masonic fair. The floral branch is pre- sided over by Miss Bessie Slater as chatr- man, chaperoned by her mother, Mrs. Dr. W. B. Smith. Miss Bessie’s receipts for flowers have been more than satisfactory. By the bye, {t was through her fore- thought, prompted by her musical talent, that a fine march was written and dedi- cated to the commandery. Miss Slater has met with the same success at this fair that she did at the one given by the Co- lumbia Athletic Club, where her services were so highly appreciated.

Pohndorff states: When thirty odd years ago the Spanish army invaded Moroc- co, camping on swampy ground and drink- ing bad water,of course fever became ramp- ant. Two astringent beverages, strong cof- fee and red wine, ordered at once by the commissariat, soon cured and prevented malarial ills. The French army is cared for in the same sense. The Italians in Ab- yssinia carried abundant coffee and clarct among their field stores. What a boon would to our own army in campaign be good, dilutable claret! Without prejudice, I know mone better adapted than Chr, Xander's Virginia Clarets and Virginia Ports. He pressed them from our two noblest Ameri- can grapes, the Norton and Ives Virginia Seedlings. Their scant juice, free from potash, but of rich iron, phosphor and tan- nin proportions, renders their wines a ver- itable vinous essence that admits double or triple dilution. Rarely are such wines found as Chr. Xander's higher-priced Old Virginia Wines, defecated by his method during years of storage. They aid diges- tion. They renew watery blood. Va.
