ROFULA, BILOOD be | | The First Day of the Johnson & Lut- trell Stock at the Busy Corner. We scale things here by a gian standard. And according to its measure the first four hours of this sale tell us of another great and glori- ous success, come to “The Busy Corner.” We were crowded within an hour after opening. By 10 o'clock the pressure was crushing. And now at noon tide progress—from department to department seems to be a matter of the most painful difficulty. With prescience gained by forty years’ battling in the business world—with the tact of true generalship, we have made the opening stroke our strongest one. There can be no lower prices than those of this—the start. We have reserved nothing. The Johnson & Luttrell stock was being replenished up to the last mo- ment. And goods as yet unpacked and stored away in the shipping room will share the same fate of reductior. that has befallen the rest of this stock. Our object was not at the start and is not now to realize a single penny’s gain on the MERCHANDISE. We want the BUILDING. And if prices, such as these, are not low enough to clear away Johnson & Luttrell’s stock in ten days we won't attempt to make any further reduc- tions, for that would be nigh impossible, but we will throw all goods that are left straight into the New York auction rooms to bring what they will and to go to whomsoever will take them.

Flower Bearers Will Attend Bride at Calvary Tonight — Re- the ceptions—Personal Notes. This morning at 9 o'clock at St. Patrick's Church, Miss Lillian M. Smith and Mr. William F. Moran were married by Rev. Father McGee, assistant pastor. The cere- mony was followed by a nuptial mass, and a large number of friends were in the church. Mr. Patrick O’Brien was best man and Miss Annie Smith, a sister of tne bride, was bridesmaid. After the ceremony the newly married couple repaired to the home of the bride's father, on 12th street, where a wedding breakfast was served. Later in the day Mr. and Mrs. Moran left for an out-of-town trip, which will last for several weeks. This evening at Calvary Baptist Church the marriage of Miss Lillie May Bowen, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. James G. Bowen, to Mar, Charles N. fairfax, will take place. Admission to the chureh Will be by card. ‘The briae will be attended by two little tiower bearers, Kosalie Waters and Minnie Stone, and Miss Mamie A. Spignul as maid of honor. Mr. Kicnard BE.

One of the features will be a fine musical program rendered before the ceremony, Mr. Murray presiding at the organ. Rev. Dr. Greene will officiate. The bride will wear white satin, and her tulle veil will be fastened by the groom's gift—a harvest moon in dia- monds. Her dress is trimmed with point lace, the gift of her grandmother, years ago, for this use. The Misses Dielman of New Windsor, N. J.; Miss Desher of New Brunswick, N. J. Mr. and Miss Koppelman and Miss Breed- love of Baltimore are house guests of Mr. and Mrs. Bowen. The reception which will follow the cere- mony is for the intimate friends of the family. The bride's presents are displayed in an upper room, aiid compuse many beau- tiful and useful articles from home and out of-town friends. The couple, after a trip north, will spend this winter with Mr. and Mrs. Bowen. A large gathering of friends witnessed the marriage last night of Miss Maud Amanda Thompson and Mr. Arno!d Vance Graves at the Sixth Presbyterian Church. Dr. Skellenger performed the ceremony, as- sisted by Dr. Muir. The ushers were Messrs. Walter Thompson, Eugene Logan, Howard Hodge and John Muir, U. S. The bride came in church with her brot! er, Mr. Ernest Thompson, and was a’ tended by her little niece, Virginia Ma: field, as flower girl. Mr. William Graves of Alabama, cousin of the groom, was best man. The bride was richly dressed in bro- ceded white satin, trimmed with mousse- line de soie and pearl passementerie. The church was decorated with palms, and at the house chrysanthemums and La France rcses were profusely used. The reception lasted from 8 to 11, when Mr. and Mrs. Graves left for a northern trip. Miss Amy Mahala Fletcher and Dr. Thomas Pinckney Chapman were married yesterday at the Mount Vernon Place Church. Messrs. R. R. Stratton, Arthur Orrison, William Smith and Edward B. Fletcher were ushers. The bride wore a traveling dress of dark-green cloth braid- ed in black, with a green velvet picture hat. Her bouquet of pink chrysanthemums gave a harmonizing touch of color.

William Martin, T. J. Downey and B. Murphy, grocers, were before the Police Court today charged with violating the pure food law. It was charged that they sold and exposed for sale a certain article of food, the same being an imitation of and scld under the name of another article. The article in question was lard. Orlando Kirg, a health office messenger, appeared as a witness in the cases, and said he call- ed at the stores and asked for a half-pound of lard. At each store he paid 3 cents for bis purchase. Prof. Hird, the chemist, who made the analysis, told the court there was no lard in the material. It was composed of beef tallow and cottonseed oil, he said. The defendants made their explanation. Mr. Murphy exhibited a circular showing that he had advertised to sell “lard com- pound,” and this, he said, he sold at 5 cents a pound, while the pure lard sold at a higher price. He said he sold both the lard and the compound. Both the other defendants admitted they kept in stock the pure lard and the “lard compound, and that they sold them for what they really were. It was their belief that they bad a right to do this. Under the proof Judge Scott said he would have to hold them gullty. The so- called “lard compound,” he recalled, has no lard in it, according to the proof, and therefore he ‘thought it was not properly named. He fined the defendants $15 each. em Released on Mother's Promise. Daniel Clark, colored, was arrested last night by Policeman Creagh for loitering about the corner of 3d and East Capitol streets. “1n plead guilty for him,” said his coun- sel in Judge Scott's court this morning, “and ask that his porsonal bonds be taken. He was standing on the corner, but he wasn’t doing any harm.” “That's: what they all say when they get arrested,” remarked the court. “Well, your honor,” said counsel, “I know his mother well, and she promises that he shall keep away from the corner.” “That's all I want,” the policeman said. The court thereupon released the young man. ———->——_ ritehsnie ck “ght tone’ avis bese ak tained through the want columns of The FINED FIFTY DOLLARS. Penalty Paid by a Boy Beanshooter, James Contee, colored, fourteen old, was given a trial in the Police yesterday afternoon on a charge of as. sault. William Brewer, also colored, about three years the defendant's junior, appear ed as the complainant. This ts the case in which a beanshooter was used with almost fatal results. Brewer was in an alley play- ing @ game of marbles with some little friends, while Contee was amusing himself with a beanshooter. A stone sent from the weapon struck the Brewer boy on the head and severely injured his skull The jury returned a verdict of gulity and counsel asked that his personal bx be taken on account of his age, but t Judge said he would impose a fine of $0 instead of a jail sentence. Commenting on the case, Judge Kimball said it is unlawful for boys to use bean- shooters, and he had fined a great many boys for using them. The mere use of such an instrument, the judge said, shows malicious intent, and he did not see how vis he could grant the request of counsel to take the boy’s personal bonds. aise es POLICEMAN FINED. | Was of Duty a. Ity of Unbecom- ing Conduct. The District Commissioners today proved a recommendation of Major Syl- Vester, the chief of police, ‘that Private G V. Johnson of the police force, recently found guilty by Trial Officer Pugh of con- duct unbecoming an officer and neglect of duty, be fined $10. In his report Major Sylvester says: “Af- ter reviewing the facts set forth tn this case I find that Private Johnson was off his beat obtaining a lunch, which he should have provided before going on duty; that he provoked trouble unnecessarily, but was, perhaps, ignorant that he had given offense, the second party being under the influence of liquor. Be that as it may, the interference was outside of his legitimate business. In short, he became a meddler. The penalty inflicted would be more severe if it were not that this is the first offense and he was commended October 17, 1888, for vigilance in watching premises at'a late hour, where a party had entered whom he ap- thought to be other than one entitled to do so. A repetition of the offense will work more serious consequence > Arriy ingto: »vett, Boston; D. H. New York; B. B. Dull, Newburg, L. Walds, Bridgeport, Conn. Ebbitt—w. Hutchinson, Rice, U. 8. A.; D.
