Soifthe country is governed well, the people have the credit and the blessing. If the country is illy governed, the people have the censure and the curse of bad laws.

HORN, THE TAILOR. | | Michael O’Day was _ convinced that | Horn the tailor could do just what he said. If Michael O’Day thought so} last week, he failedtoexpressit. Yes, he got Horn to make him one of those $15 suits to order after the persuasion of his wife. Mrs. O’Day is more than pleased. She is satisfied that Horn the tailor can make an ugly man look handsome. If the patrons of THE BEE will look onthe picture that was | in last week’s BEE and the one in the| above cut, they can readily see that Horr the tailor gives you no bluff. The above cut represents a quick transformation from the rediculous to the sublime. Mr. Horn does not ask All he asks is to give hima call and be convinced for yourselves. If you are not satisfied with his $10 and $15 suits of clothes he will refund | your money. What more can you ex- pect? Can you get the same induce- ment from any other clothing house in the city? Can you have your clothes made from imported goods at the low price that Horn the tailor offers you? You must first be convinced before you go elsewhere that Horn cannot Bive you satisfaction people will give you imitation goods, out they will not guarantee them. If | Horn’s goods are not as he represent | them to be, he is willing to forfeit $50 You can call for a sample of his goods and carry them to your own tailor, and if he can prove what Horn says is in- correct, you can demand $50 in gold. Are you in need of a summer suit? Do you want a first-class flannel suit cheaper than any house in the city can If you do, why go n. W., and have your measure taken. You can select any kind of suit you want samples. New samples are received daily. This is the only up to-date house in the city. | His samples are as fresh as daily laid | eggs If you want a full dress suit, Horn is the man you should have to make it. Give him atrial, if nothing more. If you don’t believe that the people have gone crazy on Horn, just read the next weeks issue of THE BEE. Michael O’Leary is sojealous of John O’Day’s suit that he is about to but- out his brains. Horn knows how to please. This is the reason other merchants as well as some people want to butt their brains ont, because he knows how to please the eye as well as the taste of people. His number is 637 F street, n. w.

Jones DEFENDS HIS Suit. THE DEFENSE FORCES THE PROSECUTING OFFICER TO SPEAK. Henry Brunhaus, a white man who keeps an eating saloon at the corner of 6th and La. avenue, n. w., was arrest- ed some time ago and was placed on : trial in the Police Court, before Judge Kimball, on last Wednesday for vio- lating the Act of June to, 1873, in re- } fusing to accommodate Mr. '. L. Jones a colored attorney with something to eat, in his dining saloon. | Brunhaus demande@ a jury trial which was tried in the upper branch of the Police Court on last Wesdnes-! day. Mr. Jones testified that on the | morning ot May 5 he entered the eat- ing saloon kept by Brunhaus and seat- ed himseif at a table and called for a cup of tea and sandwich. A waiter looked indignantly at him and told him that he could be served in the kitcken. Mr. Jones asked if he was refused accommodation where he was sitting, and was again told to go in the kitchen. He walked to the kitchen and found it was too dirty to go in and refused to eat there. Later I returned with Mr. J. B. O'Neal,” continued Mr. Jones, *‘and we seated ourselves in the din- ing room. The waitress informed Mr. O’Neal that he could be served, but if I wanted anything I would have to go tothe kitchen. There was a lively tilt between at- torney Riley and lawyer Jones. An attempt was made to show that law- yer Jones was a suspicious person, which was the reason that he was re- fused. This caused a smile to go over the the lips of the audience. Lawyer Jones gave attorney Riley to understand that he was a gentleman. Mr. Brunhaus took the stand and denied that he refused Mr. Jones on account of his color. Attorney Cook asked defendant if he knew Mr. Jones. Hesaid no. He subsequently endeav- ored to make the _ witness state that he had read of Mr. Jones through the newspapers. Judge Kimball ruled this out, by saying how could he recognize Mr. Jones through the newspapers when he had testifed that he did not know | him? Col. Cook took exceptions to the Court rulings. Judge Kimball said it | was immaterial to him what he took | exception to, but he wanted counsel to | understand that he woutd not allow |a man to testify to a circumstance that he did not know anything about The exception was withdrawn. Both attorneys testified that O’Neal said he was drunk when he went to Brunhaus with Jones. Lawyer O’Neal stated that he told both attorneys fairy tales. | They had summoned Mr. O'Neal, but |he fooled them when he took the stand. The case was resumed Thursday | morning and District Attorney Jas. L. | Pugh opened the case for the govern- ment. He made a most_ brilliant eech, full of eloquence, logic and sarcasm. Judge Kimball’s rulings were fair and in keeping with the law Brunhaus was acquitted by the fol- William S. Crown, 1027 e.; Henry B. Meyers, | 2919 M street, n. w. ; George W.

Anderson, who has just graduated in law from the Kent ‘College, Chicago, Ill. and who has made such a brilliant record, is one of our fellow townsmen. His father, Mr. Moses Anderson, who has for a num- ber of years, been connected with the Bureau of Engraving and Printing is stil] here, and has a very interesting family. He has always enjoyed the ompliments of being a man of bril- jant attainments and we are glad that his son took an example from his much respected and venerable father The Chicago Conservator has the following to say: s “The commencement exercises at Association Hall was of special inter- est at the Chicago College of Law, to the colored people, because in the graduating class was one colored man whose splendid work earned for him honorable mention in all the daily newspapers. Mr, Anderson was em- ployed with the law firm of Prussing and McCulloch and by his kind and en- couraging employers given every Op- pertunity to make a thorough study of his chosen profession. : The result was most flattering. Mr. Anderson soon became recognized as one of the most careful, industrious members of his class. His theoretical workin school was supplemented by the |large practice of his employers. He | was in court every day and long before > take his deploma he was recognized as a capable and re- | liable practictioner before the bar. Few | colored men have had so excellent ar | opportunity and it is most gratifying to |his friends and employers that he has | improved the opportunity so well.”” Mr. Anderson will practice in Chic- ago, Ill. { | | lowing jury : 4th street, n. | | GRAND EXCURSION. | | | First Grand Excursion of the season to Glymont by Washington Pleasure Club, on Sunday, June 6th, 1897, on the Palatial Steamer Kent.
