Present and Innocent. A little woman named Mamie Henson was called to answer a charge of vagrancy. “I'm here,” she said, “and I’m inno- cent.” Policeman Hollidge, who had arrested her, was called, but he failed to answer. “Dismissed for want of prosecution,” said the judge, and Mamie was given her free- dom. An elderly nolly, who man named Terrence I. Con- S arrested last night for hav- ing violated District ordinance, pleaded ignorance.

AMUSEMEN Two fines musical come * with Anna Held in the title role, having rounded out a run of near pacity houses” in a brief season Monday night at the Colum- bia. This y it may be recalled, was presented in this city the first week of its formative stage. It i at it has been shorn of its eruditie to that pioneer and was risque in been ruthlessly eliminated. 2 periencing quite “a rning the matter of and it is a noticeable fac leading this reform hav heartily commended this entertainment for its freedom from objectionable material. Miss Held has happily deserted the doubt- ful estate of chanteuse, and succeeded in winning critical ‘commendation for her work as medienne. As “the in- © and Theo have all active service of the stage, there is a fine opportunity for current suc in musical comedy. Charles A.

Marcia Van ding contralto, has a most sretta, the daughter of roy—and is entrusted with several charming ballads.

Mr. Barnabee, Mr. MacDonald, Mr. Froth- ingham, Mis tlett and Mr. Rushworth are said to shine to advantage in this latest composition, as weil as others who have long been identified with the Eos- tonians. “The Viceroy” will be presented here under the personal direction of Victor Herbert, who leaves his duties- as director of the Pittsburg Symphony Orchestra to conduct during the week. “The Viceroy” will be heard for. the entire week, with the on of Friday night, when “The Sere- will be revived with “Robin Hood” the bill for Saturday night and at the popu- lar priced matinee Wednesday. Seats go on sale Thursday. “A BLACK SHEEP."—The evolution of the “hot stuff” of the plains to the “hot stuff Broadway, so delightfully traced in the bright dialogue and clever situations i incidents of Playwright Hoyt, will again nterest Washingtonians at the Academy next week, for the first time in a space of over three years. “A Black Sheep” Is in some respects the best of the Hoyt farces, and the several character sketches therein contained are prototypes of persons seen in the locales thereby represented. With the presenting company is “Big Bill” De- ver the “tramp poet of the west,” and the original creator of the role of Mr. Gun- the western editor. For the first time full scope is given the powers of Mr. Devere, and many who have witnessed the performance say it is brighter, breezier and more up-to-date than ever before. “A Black Sheep” has many new kinks in its wool In the form of specialties of recent creation. and from interest already excited it would seem that the engagement would be a very profitable one. THE NEW GRAND.—The advent of an all-star polite vaudeville bill next week at the New Grand is announced by Manager Chase. Best-known of all are Mr. and Mrs. Edwin M. Royle, who present dramatic sketches. Mr. Royle is an actor of wide note. Mrs. Royle was formerly Selina Fet- ter, who distinguished herself in the lead- ing support of the best-known stars. So- laret, the “queen of light.” in spectacular drapery dances, is a foreign novelty that has had phenomenal success in this coun- try, and her act is described as containing bewilderingly beautiful color combinations and light effects. It is called “The Spirit of the Clock.” Another attraction is Little Elsie, who is sald to be the only genuine rival of Cissie Loftus. Louise Gunning con- stitutes the fourth attraction, and her Scotch ballad singing is wonderfully sweet and impressive. Next {s the Bachelors’ Club, a quintet of bright singers and ac- tors, in a musical comedy fancy. Mary Madden, the monologist, will be found tm- nmensely entertaining, and Hanson and Nel- son, all will agree, are the handsomest and most talented dancing soubrettes. “THE JOLLY GRASS WIDOWS. “The Jolly Grass Widows,’ which comes to the Lyceum next week, should prove a treat for the theater-goimg public. This attrac- tion has earned the highest pralses of both press and public wherever it has appeared and Managers Miaco & Fulton claim th support of the public for having eliminated anything savoring of indecency from the program, and at the same time presenting a show full of wit and humor of the raciest kind. The opening piece is entitled “Th> Widow's Wedding Night,” in which Miss Carrie Fulton has the leading boy role. Mile. Dika appears as the ‘‘widow’’ in an elaborate wedding dress made of over 150 yards of old V2netian lace. Three troupes of pretty girls, “The Jolly Coster Girls, “The Gay Grisettes'’ and “The Oriental Pearls," do some clever dancing in the piece. The olio is an all-star one and com- prises Reynolds and Page, eccentric fun- makers; Wilson and Halpin, in a mirth-pro- voking Irish sketch, “Casey and the Tramp;"’ Pat and Mattie Rooney, children of the late Pat Rooney, and others. MAY HOWARD'S BURLESQUERS.— May Howard's Extravaganza Company will be the attraction at the Bijou Theater next week. The company has already played one engagement in this city with great success and retains the features which then made it so popular. Ther2 are nine big acts in the olio. ELBERT HUBBARD TONIGHT AT THE RIFLES’ HALL —Elbert Hubbard, chief of “The Roycrofters,"” editor of the ‘Philis- author and lecturer, talks on “The Roycrofters and Their Work’ at the Rifles’ Hall tonight at 8:15. Mr. Hubbard has be- come a prominent figure in the Iiterary world, and his admirers who have read his stories and those who are interested in the novel magazine that he edits will avail themselves of the opportunity to see and hear the man who has created no end of talk. Crowds have greeted Mr. Hubbard in the cities in which he has appeared. LAFAYETTE COLLEGE CLUBS.—The concert of the Lafayette College Musical Clubs next Saturday evening at Rifles’ Hall has been engaging the interest of the friends of the coilege to an unusual extent. The fact that the boys made such an ex- cellent showing in their first concert of the season at Easton, Pa., has led all to expect a program of high merit, and it is safe to say those who will go to hear the concert will not be disappointed. The clubs have attained a degree of excellence which gives them undisputed place among the leading clubs of the country, and in their present tour they have excelled their record of former years. The Columbla Athletic Club of the city has extended an invitation to the clubs to make {ts club house their home while here, and immediately after the con- cert Saturday night a reception in their honor has been arranged by the board of governors, which promises to be quite an event, The clubs are touring now, and have met with even more pronounced suc- cesses than ever. DR. TALMAGE’S LECTURE.—Dr. Tal- mage will deliver his new lecture, “The Bright Side of Things.” at the Eastern Presbyterian Church, 6th street and Mary- land avenue northeast, next Tuesday even- ing, April 3. This announcement will un- doubtedly be enough to draw together an audience that will tax the capacity of the large auditorium of the church. Washing- ton people have listened to Dr. Talmage’s sermons, and have noted the great crowds that are attraacted on such occasions, but they have not had an opportunity for some years to hear him in a lighter vein, upon which the lecture treats. Hlis extensive travel and perso! acquaintance with most of the great men and women of this age, as well as his personal magnetism, places him in a position to interest and amuse an au- dience probably beyond the power of any one man. OPENING OF “WILDWOOD."—An im- petus will be given to summer amusements when Wildwood, the new and picturesque resort, is opened on Friday evening, March 30. This already popular place, formerly Glen Sligo, has undergone extensive altera- tions and the surroundings will be in k ing with the high character of th noveltie: to be offered during the heated term. A dance, with Tansill’s concert band, will in- augurate the season on the date above named. <A vigorous new management has taken hold and special factlities are offered on the Brightwood line from the bound- ary to Wildwood 1 return. —- +—_ ASSIST THE SIGHTLES To S. Work of Association Outlined at Mect- ing Held Last Evening. The work which is destred to be done more fully in this District to help the blind to become self-supporting was explained at a meeting which was held last evening in the First Congregational Church, 10th and G streets northwest. There was only a small attendance, but a program was given, mostly by people who are blind, which was very interesting. The program consisted of cornet solos, Mr. Edward H. Northrop; vocal duet, Miss A. C. D. Mur- ray and Miss E. Louise Patterson; roading, Miss Adelaide C. Nowak; contralto solo, Miss Patterson; piano solos, Mr. Henry R. W. Miles; reading, Mr. T. Alsobrook Har- rison; soprano solo, Miss Murray. An address was made by Rev. Dr. H. N. Couden, the blind chaplain of the House of Representatives, who advocated th> edu- cation of the blind to enable them to sup- port themselves. Mr. F. E. Cleaveland spoke of what js being accomplished through the workshop for the blind, now in operation hore. He said there was a need for tools and materials and spoke of a bill soon to be introduced in Congress provid- ing an appropriation for this purpose. Subscription blanks were passed around the audience and pledges of money were secured for this obj2ct. IN HASTE TO SERVE WARRANT. Officiousness Alleged and Court Asks Policeman to Explain. Policeman Hollidge of the second precinct was the prosecuting witness in the Police Court in the case of William J. Cook, a grocery merchant, who does business at No. 1014 Ist street northwest. The charge against the grocer was that he left goods on the pavement in front of his store for a longer period than the law allows. Mr. Cook admitted that he had violated the law, but complained against the con- duct of the policeman. It was shown that the officer went to the merchant's house Sunday night to serve the warrant; but Mr. Cook, who answered the door bell by look- ing out the window, refused to leave his home and accompany the officer until Mon- day. The defendant was arraigned to an- swer the charge in the Police Court this morning. He was on time in court this morning, and when the policeman appeared he promptly placed him in the dock, where there was a line of tramps and disorderlies who had been arrested yesterday. Then the officer wanted to require him to leave $10 collateral, but the prosecuting attorney was satisfied with one-half the amount. When the case was heard Judge Scott in- quired of the officer what excuse he had for his conduct, and suggested that he should select some time other than Sunday night to serve’ warrants on merchants. The judge could find no excuse for putting Mr. Cook in the dock this morning. Sentence in the case was suspended. —_.—— In Divorce Court. Proceedings for divorce were instituted today by Martha Jones against John Jones. Desertion on the part of the latter is al- leged. In connection with the proceedings for dl- vorce instituted by Hyland C. Kirk against Mabel D. Kirk the latter today filed an- swer. The allegation of desertion is de- nied, and in reply it is asserted that the petitioner abandoned the respondent. —_—_——_ Five States in Five Hours.

At a-regular meeting of the Pro Re Nata Society resolutions were passed reciting that the Senate committee on investigation of the public schools of the District of Co- lumbia, in recommending thé appointment by the President of a board of school trus- tees, to be paid a certain salary, is advocat- ing a measure the adoption of which will bring the schools within the domain of po- liuical influence, such as has operated to the disadvantage of the schools in cities where the influence prevails, and declaring that Pro Re Nata takes the initiative in recording @ protest against the passage of the meas- ure. The resolutions state at some lengths the possible evils of such a change in the system. The District Federation of Wo- men’s Clubs is urged to co-operate with Pro Re Nata in an effort to defeat the mee PULMONARY 4DISEASES. — Principal Cause’ of Mortality in Dis- trict the Past Week. There were 153 ‘deaths in the District during the past week. Of these 76 were of white persons and 77 colored. The principal causes of mortality were those diseases affecting the ‘pulmonary organs. There were 25 deaths ftom consumption, as against 13 in the week before, and 33 from acute lung attacks, as compared with 23 by the last report,of which 26 were cases of pneumonia: Of: the contagious infec- tious class of diseases: there were 7 fatal cases of grip, 3 of whooping cough, 3 of measles, 1 of typh@id fever and 4 of diph- theria. At the close of last report there were 30 eases of diphtheria in quarantine. During the week 13 new cases developed and 14 were discharged, leaving 29 cases under ob- servation, in twenty-six premises. Of scarlet fever there were 67 cases in quarantine at the close of last report. Dur- ing the week 14 new cases occurred and 15 were disctarged, leaving 66 cases in isola- tion, in fifty-three premises. The mean weather conditions prevailing during the week were: Temperature of the atmosphere, 42 degrees, relat: humidity, 55, and barometric pressure, 29.98.The rain- fall was one-tenth of an inch, with south- erly winds averaging ten miles per hour. ‘The highest temperature was 68 degrees on the 23d, and the lowest 13 degrees on the 18th. ——.__ INSANE SOLDIERS ARRIVE. Alleged That Proper Notice Was Not Given the Hospital. Eight insane soldiers from the Philip- pines, who arrived recenily at San Francisco from Manila, have just been conveyed to the Government Hospital for the Insane. The arrival of these makes the total num- ber at St. Elizabeth's of members of the army and navy on service at the Philip- pines since Dewey's victory at Manila bay about sixty. The new arrivals are not vio- lent, and but one fs ill enough to be placed in bed. The chances for their recovery and subsequent discharge from St. Elizabeth's are considered good. As a rule, it is said, the cases so far re- ceived at the institution since the begin- ning of war operations before Manila have not proved stubborn ones, and while, as stated, about sixty have entered the asylum from the Philippine station, some have been discharged as cured, and more are expected to follow in the course of time. A day or so ago two were sent away per- fectly well, and a third is about to leave. ‘The arrival of the military insane at St. Elizabeth's has been without Proper notifi cation to the hospital officers, it is asserted. While the adjutant general's office is al- Ways informed by telegraph of the time the party is due at the railroad station, and while conveyances are sent to bring the members to the asylum, the hospital o: cials, as it has been done in the past, have known nothing of the matter until the Wagons draw up at the doors of the insti- tution. Prompt accommodations are con- sequently not to be given, and necessarily some confusion and delay ensues hile if wny patients in the party are ill, as is fre- quently the case, all this should be avoided. —_.—_—_ Travel a Luxury.
