AN open oonfession h good for the

tie tardy in getting around. The Col

papers which has been quite energetic
In denounceing Chief Justice Owen for
his opinion In the Cincinnati election
cases, now gracefully acknowledge the
corn, and saysthe following good words
for the Chief Justice:
Judge OVENS panning out bet
ter judicial mind than good many
people were disposed to credit him
with, when he first appeared in Column
bus, at q Democratic State Convention,
as O Northwestern Ohio candidate for
Supreme Judge.
The Dispafch entered an exception to
one Of the opinions Of q majority Of the
Court, handed down by Judge Owen, in
!, Q Cincinnati election case, on the
ground that II 1t were not within the
province Of the courts to aid the peo-
pie securing justice at the polls. why
are We building expensive court houses?
The substance Of that opinion was that
the courts were powerless to change the
returns, that prerogative belonging
solely to the respective houses of the
General Assembly. Whether or not
this opinion is sustained by the wisdom
OF the ages, our purpose is to admit that
1t looks more reasonable nosc than u did
then, and to note the fact that Judge
Owen In other decisions involving
questions that are difficult to eliminate
from partisan feeling, is working In .
judicial channel that is giving general
sdtigd action to all men sOho are endedvor-
ing to be fair minded.
HE pronunced as being unconstitu-
tional law providing for an extraord;-
nary method of reorganizing this ely
for purely partisan purposes. He con-
Cured with the majority ofthe Judges,
who were of another political complex
ion, in supporting Governor Foraker in
ousting the late Board of Police Com
missioners of Cincinnati. He joined in
the unanimous opinion of the. Court In
sustaining Jndge Wylie's decision that
the house has the right to send for per-
sons and official papers, to be- brought
from any part Of the State, and to Inn
prison In cases Of contempt.

ST. MARKS CHURCH BENEFIT,

The Ladies' Building Fund Association of ST.
Marks Church, Capitol Hill, gave a very enjoyable
entertainment at the residence OF Mr.. L. A. Wood
Thursday evening last The programme began with
piano solo by Miss Maide, which was finely
rendered; next an Italian song, entitled "Awake my
Lute,' by Miss Katie Scott, who as an encore sang
"Margery Daw' In a most bewitching manner.
Ball, who convulsed the audience with "Kentucky
Philosophy Afterward Miss Maide played 'Pass.
ing Clouds" an original composition, which showed
the talent and Skill OF the performer. Miss Scott
sang, by request Bonnie sweet Bessie the Maid of
Dundee as only Miss Scott can sing It, Miss Ball
playing the Accomplishments. The last number was
recitation by Mrs Lockwood-"Battery B"--which
was pathetic in the extreme. Being encored, she
gave "School.grl Science" and was SO heartily ap
plauded that she obliged to return ana reclted
"The Elevator" which was the very thing the
audience wanted, for Mrs. lockwood is SO ident-
fed with the piece that if her name is men,
TONED at any time smile goes round
and somebody says in an inquirng tone,
"Take an elevator?n The programme being
finished, the diningroom was thrown open for those
who wished TO enjoy ice cream and cake, and
beautifully adorned table, ornamented with nowers
and fruit, was visible through the porttereS. The
room was Immediately filled and presented an ami.
mated scene. There were number of aprons do
mated which met with ready sale, and caused those
who were dsposing OF them TO look rejoced at their
success. But the most satisfied locking person there
was the doorkeeper who as he dropped the quarters
into his pocket, seemed to be saying 10 himself,

DEPARTMENT MUSICIANS.
Base Ball,

TO Ing EDITOR--St'; The regular musicians OF
Washington have Just cause for complaint that a
number OF clerks IN the Departments should be
soliciting contracts 10 MI engagements and taking
the bread out Of their mouths. We, who arc mu-
slclans by profession, have no other means Of sup-
port. Some OF onr rivals are drawing an assured
competence OF 400 and II 600 year from the Gov
ernment We think that II IL hardly Just that Gov
eminent employees should be allowed TO compete
with US in the matter OF furnishing music 70 balls,
parties, hOlels, etc. We desire 10 appeal 10 a fair.
minded public against such practices, and we trust
the subject Will be brought 70 the attention OF the

THE WEST END MINSTREL ENTERTAINMENT.

BY far the best entertainment ever given by the
West End Minstrel Company was that on Friday
evening at Curtis Hall, Georgetown, before a large
and interested audience. The features Of the ollo
were the clever performances of the end men,
Messrs. Smith and Stewart, and the solo "White
Wings" by Mr.. Mofatt, who has q voice OF rare
power. The Tournament at Langley" by the en-
tire company was very laughable and reached rf-
ling climax IN browning the "Queen OF Beauty Mr..
Hubbard Smith, whose makeup could not have been
improved. The banjo quarte,te was exceedingly
fine, and compared most favorably with similar pro-
fesslonal performances. Messrs. Coolidge, Burr,
Wilson, and Brttoes should not allow their talents
10 wsne IN this respect. Mr.. Ferguson's stump
speech brought down the house. and his clever Jokes
were greatly appreciated. Mr.. Byram, the profes.
slonal skater tnmbled around with frantic gesture

MI. Chew and his co.workers and corkers deserve
great credit for Their Efforts, which certainly should
insure good reward for their labors and net a
handsome sum for the benefit OF the town hall al

posed by the participants, and the arrangement OF
the "sweetly original" Mikado was the clever work
Of Mr.. Hubbard Smith. The audience were highly
pleased with the entertainment, and there were

lis Residents Want Representation in the City
Government.
The citizens OF East Washington have held several
meetings and appointed committee OF three. con-
ssting of Messrs Cragn, Clark, and Dodge, 10 draw
up memorial TO be presented TO Congress exhibit
ing their grievances. They complain that for many
years the eastern section Of the District-drawng
north and south line through the Capitol, and stsl.
ing all that part of the District east OF such line East
Washington-has been Disseminated against IN the
matter of all improvements, whether for water,
streets. sewers, school-houses, or country roads.
This arises they claim from the fact that District
commissioners and the engineer oicers under
them have always been selected from those citizens
residing and having interests in the northwestern
section Of the city. They say that the present Com
mssoners and the subordinate engineers under
them all live in the northwestern section In limited
circle, with radius of less than 600 yards Despair
ing of correcting what they claim to have been the
great injustice done the eastern section In the way
Of mpro, emens under the present system they pro.
pose as remedy that the District should be subdi-
vided into sections. and that residents from each
section shall be appointed, in lieu Of the present
Commissioners and with like powers Under such q
system OF representation they claim that justice
would be done TO all sections alike. The memorial
when ratified by the general committee OF citizens
TO be held next Monday evening will be submitted 10
