Yesterday evening Coroner Patterson
held an inquest at No. 315 Virginia avenue,
southwest, in the case of James ]. Phillips
the unfortunate little child that was run
over on the Baltimore & Potomac Railroad
opposite his home on last Tuesday, receiv-
ing injuries from which he died at mid
night. The evidence showed that the
boy had been crossing the railroad, and that
freight cars standing on the side truck pre-
vented him from, seeing the approaching
train until it was too late. The Jury
brought in the following verdict: "That
the said Joseph j. Phillips came to his
death about 1880 p. m, October 25th, 1881,
from injuries received by being run over by
a freight train of the Baltimore & Potomac
Railroad Company. The Jury attach no
blame to the employees of the company
but recommend that the cars usually left
on the track should be prohibited.

intervals acted and talked as sensibly as

convince anybody of their insanity.

The New secretary or tho Treasury.


Hon. Charles j. Folgcr was born in Nan
tuckct, Mass, April 10, 1918. When about
12 years of age his parents removed to
Geneva, Ontario County, N. ", where he
has since resided, except Mt intervals when
engaged in the study of law. He graduated
from Geneva College in 1896, and immcdi-
ately entered upon the study of law in the
office of Mark II. Sibley and Alvan Worlen,
in Canandaigua. In 1889 he was admitted
to practice ut the bar of the Supreme Court,
ut Albany, and in the following year en-
tered upon the practice Of his profession ut
Geneva. In 1914 he was appointed, under
the old Constitution, Judge of the Ontario
Court of Common Pleas; was also master
and examiner in chancery until the Chan
Gerry Court was abolished by the adoption
was elected County Judge of Ontario
County, and held that office for four years.
In 1861 he was elected Senator from that
district was reelected in 1863, in 1865, in
1867, and again in 1869. Mr.. Folger was n
Democrat until 1856, but has acted with
the Republican party from the period of its
organization. He was elected to the
State Senate In 1865, and at
every subsequent session was chosen
speaker pro tenn, and presided during the
absence Of the acknowledgement As o
public speaker there are but few men in the
Republican party in tho State who can
excel him. He is natural orator. and his
powers have been increased by thorough
education and discipline. During the ses-
sion of 1868 he broke with Gov. Fenton, and
was instrumental in preventing the con-
firmation Of all the appointments of the
governor that winter, with the exception
Of auditor of the canal department Mr..
Folger, shortly after his last election to the
State Senate, resigned his place to accept
the tender by President Grant of the Office
of Assistant Treasurer of the United States
in New York city, made vacant by the re-
tirement of Gen. Butterfield, who had been
so completely undone by the great "gold
conspiracy" of September, 1869. His SER
vices on the Judiciary Committee of the
Senate and in the Constitutional Conven-
tion Of 1867 caused his selection rs associate
judge of the Court of Appeals in 1870, and
he has ranked as one Of the ablest Of its
members. He was nominated for chief
justice by the Republican State Committee
in August, 1880, no State convention hav-
ing been called, and was elected on the
ticket with Garfield and Arthur by 10000
majority. He has always been classed as a
Stalwart Republican.

lWEs EAceHe ~
A fine audience assembled at the National
Theatre last evening to witness Mr.. Keene's
Characterization of "Hamlet." For the first
time during his engagement this gentleman
made universal hit. Hitherto, while
some have been satisfied with his represen-
tations, the general verdict has been dead
set against him. In Hamlet" however,
Mr.. Kecne Is very successful, and his pre-
sentation Of the piece marks him as an ac-
tor and student Of most excellent promise.
He Is much more quiet and subdued in this
performance than in any other In which we
have seen him, Is freer-in fact, almost
wholly freo-from rant, and plays the part
with ease and refined polish.
His support was better last evening than
on any previous occasion. As the awe of the
play is one of the largest ingredients of its
success, it is necessary that the spectral
character be well and strongly presented,
and the Ghost in last nights rendition was
enacted with more power than any ever
seen in Washington.

Mary Moriarty was arraigned this morn
ing in the Police Court for the larceny of
milk from Mr.. Oliver II. Thompson. The
evidence showed that Mr.. Thompson has
been in the habit of leaving milk pitcher
on the doorstep in the early morning for
the milkman to fill, and that by the time
the pitcher is taken in, 1t is evident that
more than half its contents have been
drank. This morning Mr.. Thompson
watched his pitcher, and as the day began
to dawn he observed Miss Moriarty creep
up the steps, and, after taking drink, go
down the steps. Judge Smell imposed a
sentence of thirty days in Jail.
