the city. The Washington Light
Infantry is called the crack battalion
of the country south of Mason and
Dixon line, and many persons at a
distance, as well as citizens have been
munifcent in gifts to the fair, the
proceeds of which are for building an
armory for the organization. The
rink furnishes by far the largest floor
space available in the city, being $50
by 80 feet. The decorations are
beautiful and appropriate, banners
and military trophies being profusely
used. Six electric lights within and
one outside will illuminate the scene,
in addition to many gas-jets, and a
detachment of the Marine Band will
render choice selections of music
during each night that the fair will
continue. The scene at the rink is
one of varied and picturesque con-
fusion now, the floor being covered
by articles of every description, but
so many willing hands are bnsy with
the chaos that everything will be
ready for brilliant opening tonight.
Another attraction of the week will
be the Jersey Lily at Ford's Opera
House Verdicts upon the personal
attractions of the famous English
beauty, as well as upon her dramatic
abilities have been so conflicting that
Washingtonians will be glad to settle
the vexed question by deciding for
themselves if Mrs. Langtry is really
a beautiful woman and actress.
The Washington correspondent of
| the Boston AdUertiseT intimates that
the acknowledgement does not fully
approve of the manner in which
Frank Hatton, the first assistant, has
been running things. Upon receiv-
inc information that some changes
were contemplated, to provide for
which some dismissals would have to
be made, acknowledgement Ores
ham demurred at the proposed re-
movals, and was blandly informed
that it had already been determined
upon before Mr.. Howe went away,
and that these changes were to have
been ordered Immediately upon his
return. Judge Gresham then inquir-
ing further, and finding that the en-
ployes whom it was proposed to dis
charge were perfectly competent, he
informed Mr.. Hatton that under his
administration such classes were not
to be molested. He then indicated
that hereafter it is the postmaster
general who is to run the department
and he evidently intends that it shall
be done with some regard to proprie
ty. 1t has appeared for some time a

THE CzAR'S CORONATION.

In view OF the approaching corona
ton ceremonies at Moscow it is graf
flying to be assured on the authority
of the London Times that the Nihl-
list organization has unquestionably
been broken up; though it is not
easy to reconcile this assurance with
the reports which the later cable mes
sages bring that 1900 persons have
just been arrested in Moscow for
plotting against the life of the Gar,
that the secret police are making
numerous arrests IN st. Petersburg
on account of the arrival of NihiliSt
intrigues, and that ukase has been
issued ordering increased vigilance
to be observed on the frontier to pre-
vent suspicious persons from enter
ing the country. Whatever may be the
actual state of affairs, however, there
is no doubt that the government is
more calm and easy than it has been
for years. This is indicated in fact
by the greater gayety of the Russian
Court during the past winter, in
which the empress is said to have
made an unexpected favorable i'm
preston upon her subjects, and by
the freedom with which the Car
has shown himself in public. For
the first time since his fathers death
the people of ST. Petersburg have
had an opportunity to know from
personal observation that their EN-
peror is not myth. His appearance
has established not only a sense of
greater public security but a feeling
of warmer attachment TO himself,
which the cornoation ceremonies will
OPPORTUNITY serve to deepen.
In point of magnifcence it is not
likely that this celebration will be
surpassed by any public event of the
century. Money will be prodigally
spent, and the resources of Europe
drained to make it suitably imposing
in order to impress not only the rep
resentatives of the foreign power,
who will be there, but the people o.
Russia themselves, to whom the cor
onation signifies the investiture Of
the Car with paramount authorit,
and who have been unwilling to rec
ognize him as their supreme heat
until he should have received hol,
: JUNCTION. Indeed, whether Nihilisn
is suppressed or not, these ceremon
les could not be much longer delayed

: been already too far strained by thei
postponement. To adorn the specta

The will of Peter Cooper reveals
the fact that the philanthropist left
less than $2,OOO,OOO. Of this, after
deducting 500, 900 for Cooper Union,
and twice as much for smaller per-
sonal requests, the residue is divided
equally between his two children, ex-
Mayor Cooper and Mrs. Hewitt.
AS his son-in-law points out in an
interview, it is really surprising,
when one takes into account his
tireless benefactions, that Mr.. Coop
er left even so large an estate.
Probably not less than four millions
he gave away during his long life
time. He might have left ten mil
lions, instead of less than two, had
he been inspired, as Mr.. Jay Gould's
World properly says, by ''the ordina-
ry and vulgar ambition of rich men.

How many millions man should
accumulate before retiring from
active business is at last settled
by Jay Gould. By dint of great
economy and close shaving he has
sailed down millions. He now an
nounces that he will retire from ac-
tive labor and leave his speculative
mantle to his son. He will soon 90
abroad for two years on his superb
yacht, Atlanta, and although ostensi-
bly, out of business, it will not be
strange should he come back with his
pockets stuffed with the certificates
of stock of half the railroads and
telegraphs in Europe. If he will
only beat Bismarck at his game of
excluding the American hog, his
countrymen will forgive him much
and wish him safe return.

approved design for the new two
cent postage stamp. The stamp con-

of Washington similar to that on the
three-cent stamp. Surrounding the
profile is an oval band in the upper
part of which are the words, ''United

bottom of the tablet the words, ''two

testimony of the informer Carey was
strongly corroborated by others who
were in the park at the time. The
defence sought to prove an alibi, but
the effort was regarded as an inven-
ton to shield the accused. On Fri

A GOOD STORY OF SERGEANT
BAllANTYNE,

There is a rather good story told
about Sergeant Ballantyne and the
present Baron 1Iuddle stone, who,
after life of tuft-hrnting, was
raised into his seventh heaven by his
marriage with Lady Di. Beauclerc,
sister of the Duke of st. Adams.
The two were at Hombufg in the
days when cards were not prohibited.
IIuddlestone, as has been said, was
notorious for his tuft-hunting pro-
clivities. Wherever there was a
titled person he was sure to make
his way to that neighborhood. A
game was going on. A Duchess of
some German principality was busily
engaged in game of rouge-et-noir.
Exhausted by excitement, she sat
down upon the nearest knee, which
happened to belong to Sergeant
Ballnntyne. The Sergeant waited
until the end of the play, and then,
regardless of consequences, shouted
across the hall: ~ say, Huddlestone,
what will you give me for my
trousers? A real Duchess has been
sitting on them. IN. Y. Hour.
