DISTRICT GOVERNMENT.

THE NORMAL SCHOOL QUESTION.
The Commissioners this morning received
another letter from ex-Trustee James H. Smith,
relative to the appointment of school teachers
to the colored public schools not graduates from
the Normal school. He refers TO the late dis
cussion of the subject by the school board as q
superficial discussion. and says that there is no
disputing the facts that Prof. Gregory made
three appointments, neither of which were
graduates of the Normal school. He saws that
inasmuch as the facts have been admitted the
question before the Commissioners is whether
or not the law authorizes the action on the part
of these trustees. He then goes into the law Of
the subject and gives a history of the Normal
school; Of how the pupil entering the school IN
question was obliged to sign contract that she
would devote herself to the work Of teaching
for period Of two years after completing tho
prescribed course of study. There is, he
claims, an implied contract on the part of the
District to give employment TO the graduate.
He says further that he hopes the Commis-
sioners will look into the subject thoroughly,
the colored schools of the District are badly
managed, and a great many persons are
anxiously waiting and hoping that the present
Board Of Commissioners will afford them some
relief.

day, il was claimed, for the purpose of commit
ting homicide. He was armed with duel
ing pistol, but did not use il. When Police
man Gibson entered the house West had placed
the pistol on chair. He claimed that he did
not intend to shoot the woman and that he car
ried the weapon because he often had about
him large sums of money for his employers,
and also because he often delivers goods in the
country and does not return ,h until late at night

The Law as to Sale Of Liquor to Minors.
This morning in the Police court a case was
called to the attention of Judge Miller in
which James Sullivan appeared as defendant.
He was charged with selling liquor to minors.
Mr.. Cahill said that he would admit the facts
in the case and claimed that under the law his
client was not responsible. Counsel argued
upon the following state Of facts:
small colored boy named William Walker
was sent to the defendants saloon near 4th and
H streets, sometime ago with note from his
guardian for 'growler" Of beer. His
guardian afterwards told Mr.. Sullivan to let
the boy have beer when he (the guardian)
sent for it. Yesterday the boy was in Sullivans
saloon and when he came out he was seen by
Policeman Fenton, who took charge Of the
'growler" and brought the case to the stten-
ton of the court
Judge Miller, referring to former decision,
said that case presenting such . state of
facts was not violation of law. He said that
where boy went to a saloon and bought beer
under the pretext that it was for his father,
when it fact it was for himself, the saloon
keeper would be guilty of violating the law,
but it was not violation Of law where the boy
bought the beer for his father and delivered it
to him. The case was dismissed.

A Lutheran Congregation Organized.

"A AulhcTdh congregation OrSanlZeO.
During the past two years Lutheran Sum-
day school has been in successful operation in
Southwest Washington. The indications were
favorable to the possible success of congrega-
ton in that section of the city, and at meet
ing held in Potomac hall last night a new
Lutheran congregation was organized, to be
known as st. Marks. The following were
chosen as a church council for the new congre-
cation: N. e. Seitz, ]. H. Kuehling, VIM. Bull
and c. r. Botsfordas elders. John Holman,
George A. Simmons, W. A. Liphard, and Benz.
Kuehling as deacons. These officers will be
regularly installed at the services on Sunday
night. BY the unanimous request of the meet
ing the council was instructed to extend a call
to Rev. W. Fl. Gotwald, d. D., as the pastor of
the new congregation. DIR. Gotwald was in at
tendance at the meeting, and will accept the
call to the pastorate when formally made by
the church council. The outlook for the sue
cess of this new congregation is very encourage
Ing; already some sixty persons have expressed
a willingness to unite, with possible increase
from the young people through confirmation.
Prompt efforts will now be made to secure a
suitable place Of worship.

been heard from lately, and is doubtless
bordering over the facts revealed by the
scientific researches of Helen Gardener,
our doughty champion, who, after months
OF careful study with the best authorities,
made these discoveries: ~ That the
brains Of infants show no difference in the
sexes. e. That there is no such marked
difference between the brains OF the sexes
as between the brains OF the individuals OF
the same sex. (3.) That while the
brains Of the most distinguished men,
the Cromwells, the Cuviers, the Byrons
and the Spurzheims have been weighed
TO help the average for man, there has
never been examined the brain of a
great woman. Our sex has been ticketed
to fit the hospital patient and the tramp.
"A. That while il is claimed by the best
authorities that the specific gravity of wo-
mans brain is less than mans il is also
conceded by the same best authorities
that the specific gravity OF brains increases
in old age and insanity. (5.) That, after
all, the difference in male and female
brains is so slight as TO be not easily
recognizable. Based on this last assertion
Miss Gardener offered to furnish DR.. Ham
mond twenty well preserved adult brains
OF both sexes ticketed in cipher and
threw down the challenge to him that he
would not be able to tell which was which.
Unless DR.. Hammond accepts this
challenge we want to hear nothing more
from him on the subject of woman's in
ferority, like Mark Twain's Irishman,
"but silence, and mighty little OF that.
