The GAs-coAL CoNTRAcT.-Ths imbroglio
over the gas-coal contract is still unsettled the
committee on light not having cleared it away
at its last meeting. The committee on light on
the 22d ultimo advertised for proposals to be
received at the city gas works for furnishing
1,5Oo tons, more or less, of gas coal, to be de-
livered at the sheds of the works, requiring
that in the proposals the yield per ton and
candle power should be stated. The proposals
were required to be in by the LIST of August
On the evening of that day the committee met
and two proposals were Opened-one from j.
Z. Agnew d Co. to furnish Tryconnel coal at
%. 30 per ton and the other from W. 4. Smoot
Co., by g. S. French, to furnish coal at a
higher rate than that named in the Agnew bid.
The contract was thereupon awarded to Messrs.
j. Z. Agnew & Co. at 90. 80. in accordance with
the terms OF the bid. The award has, however,
not yet been carried out, Messrs. W. A. Smoot
Co. having entereda protest. Messrs. Smoot
d Co. contend that they were the only bidders
who complied with the terms of the advertise
ment and that their bid. considering the yield
of light from the COAL was lower than that of
Messrs. Agnew & Co. The matter is still IN
settled and may lead to a suit.

ATHLETICS AT VASSAR.
A New Gymnasium With Eighty-seven
Dressing Rooms and Colossal Tank.

A Poughkeepsie special to the New York Sun
their Poughkeepsie campus they will find not
far from good old Maria Mitchell's observatory
a new building, which will probably be the
scene Of more interesting work than the OBJ
servatory, the laboratory, the music hall, or
any of the corridors in the "Catacombs," that
underground series of halls whence so much
Vassar romance has sprung. This new build
ing will be the gymnasium. 1t is Of rough
brick and stands 100 feet long and so feet
wide, with height of 40 feet. There
will be one big room for general ex-
ercise, and there will be lots of smaller
apartments for social purposes, to say nothing
OF big tank holding 1900 gallons of water,
and not far away series of 81 dressing rooms.
What fun there will be when that tank is full
of girls only the girls will ever know. Every
Vassar girl doesn't know how to swim, but
there are some Of them who could. if neces-
sary, take a swim OF a mile or two without get
ting tired, and it may be predicted that by next
year this number of experts in the water will
be largely increased Besides the tank there
are a score of baths both needle and shower
That is more than there are in any of the
public baths here in town.
The gymnasium will be ready in the fall.
The college has had sort of gymnasium, but
it wasn't large. What with this new one and
the tennis and the walks about the country an d
the rowing on the college pond and the occa-
sional horse exercise, and, above all, the pa
rental care and professional skill with which
the women physicians and gymnastc directors
look after the girls at Vassar, it is pretty safe
to say that the young woman who goes to vassar
or to Wellesley or to Smith, where there are
some what similar arrangements, will at the end
Of her four-years' course be a well-developed
unit of anatomy. And she will be a scholar,
too, for the girls who like athletics don't forget
that they go to college primarily for the culture
OF their intellectual nature

Dangerous for Outsiders to In terfere.

DhuSSfouS IOF outSiuerS 10 0IofIor6s
The fact that it is dangerous for an outsider to
interfere in any trouble between man and wife
came near being demonstrated in a tragical way
last night in southeast Washington. Policemen
Krsemer and Proctor were near the Baltimore
and Potomac freight yard on New Jersey
avenue about 8 o'clock, when q young man
named Dan Callahan came to them and COM
planned that an old man living about q square
OF had threatened to shoot him. He explained
that the old man and his wife were engaged in
a row and he (Csllahan) went to take the wife's
part, as he was afraid she might be injured and
perhaps killed. He said that the husband got
pistol and followed him from the house,
threatening to shoot him. Presently the old
man appeared. He proved to be Hezekiah B.
Hensley, park Waterman and special police
nan. The officers placed him under arrest and
found on him a loaded revolver. He was in
tOxlcated at the time.
This morning when the case was on trial in
the Police Court the defendant told Judge
Mills that he was seventy-five years old.
The court commented on the fact of the old
mans leaving the house with loaded revolver
and took his personal bonds. The pistol will
be returned to the owner when he calls for it.
