Musical Entcrtninment ut Washington
School.

huSlCitl az
The splendid progress which the
pupils in the public schools OF this city
are making in the study OF music. was
again we'll illustrated yesterday afternoon
at tho Washington school. In response
to invitations from Superb ntcndent An.
derson and Miss Harper, the principal OF
the school, there were present members OF
the Board OF Education and others inter
ested in the work of the public schools,
together with large number OF the pat
rons Of Washington school. All were
we'll pleased with the entertainment af-
forded them in listening to the results
of the previous study and drill OF the
children under the general direction of
Miss Boasberg. From the lowest grade
up to and including the grammar room
evidences were shown of what good
move it was when the Board introduced
music in the schools. The gentlemen
of the Board OF Education are to be con-
graduated upon the wisdom shown in
thus giving opportunity to all to know
something of this grand science. They
deserve the thanks of the public, and
will receive the fitting reward of their
labor in the increasing appreciation
which will attend them.

THE ORDINANCE .COlii \. ! !. !. t. ;it..i

OF Council in Session Last Night Consiiefssi
a Number: of alters. IS
The Council Commit. ee on Ordinances
met last night with Messrs. Robinson,
Baily, SO'Kane and Chairman ollock
present. The first matter considered
was a resolution asking for an ordinance
regulating the speed of electric otors
and street cars The committee decided
to refer: it to the Solicitor with lnstruc-
tions to draft an ordinance prescribing
regulations for the street railway but
leaving blank the rates of speed. 1t was
further recommended that the same ordl-
nance provided a penalty for allowing
railroad trains to stand on streets in such
a way as to obstruct street crossings.
This matter is something of q chestnut
every Council for several years past hay-
ing taken one or more cracks at 1t. g! IL
may be that some day an ordinance such
as is supposed to be: wanted will be
framed and passed. .:is9}
The resolution. asking for an ordinance
requesting the electric light, telegraph
and telephone companies to put their
wires under ground was referred to the
Solicitor with the Recommendation that
blank space be left to insert the time
to be allowed the companies to comply
with the requirements of the ordinance.
A communication from the Board OF
Public Works to Council which that
body referred to the Ordinance Commit
tee, asking for an ordinance. requiring
street hose to be used with sprink lers
and not with the open nozzle was refer
red to the Solicitor with orders to draft
an ordinance such as asked for.
The resolution concerning the drafting
of an ordinance requiring the different
companies occupying the streets with
poles or natural gas escape pipes to paint
such poles and pipes in different colors,
and register those colors with the City
| Clerk, was referred to the Solicitor with
orders to comply, "a
The Solicitor presented an ordinance
requiring that when special Council
meetings are held at the instance of any
person, for the consideration of matters
of special interest to that person, such
l person calling the meeting shall stand
i all expense incurred in calling such
special meeting. 1t was referred to
| Council with the recommendation that
l it pass.
The committee instructed the Solicitor
to draft an ordinance providing for an
inspection OF milk, fish, meat, ETC., but
the part of the resolution from the
Health Committee, asking for an ordin-
ance regulating COW stables and the
hours during which cattle, hogs, ETC.,
may be driven through the streets, was
referred back with the endorsement
that the Ordinance Committee does not
deem such an ordinance expedient.

Changing Canaries, Color.

The following is flom the proceedings
of the Berlin Physiological Society:
Starting with the observed fact that cana
ries, fed with cayenne pepper, acquire a
ruddy plumage, DR.. Sauer1naln has based
upon it a scientific investigation of cana
ries, fowls, pigeons, and other birds.
suits: Feeding with pepper only produces
an effect when given to young birds bo-
fore they moult; the color of the feathers
of older birds cannot be affected. Moist.
ure facilitates the change of color to rud.
dy hue, which is again discharged under
the influence of sunlight and cold.
A portion of the constituents of cay
onne pepper is quite inactive, as, for
instance, piperin and several extractives;
similarly the red coloring matter alone of
the pepper has no effect on the color of
the feathers. II is rather the trlolein,
which occurs in the pepper in large guam
titles, together with the characteristic
pigment, which brings about the change
of color, by holding the red pigment Of
the pepper in solution. Glycerine may
be used instead of triolein 10 bring about
the same result
The same statement holds good with
regard to the feeding of birds with aniline
colors. The red pigment of the pepper
is also stored in the egg yelk as we'll as
in the feathers. The first appearance of
the pigment in the yelk may be observed
as a colored ring four days after the COM
mencement of feeding with the pigment
dissolved in fat. After further two
days feeding the whole yelk is colored.

COUNTERFEITERS CAUGHT.

Three showers of the Qneer Taken In:o
Camp by Secret-Service Officers.
Chief Brooks OF the secret service
division of New YORK has had his men
at work night ana day for months in the
effort TO unearth gang of expert counter
feiters who have been driving a thriving
trade in showing the queer in this city, but
it was only the other day that Mr.. Brooks
had the satisfaction of seeing three of the
sharpest members of the gang brought be-
fore Commissioner Shields, who held
them each in $1,000 bail for exam-
nation. Two of them were women
May McMullen and Lizzie Spears and
the third was Joseph McMullen. Mays
putative husband. Lizzie was caught In
a butcher shop, where she was purchasing
a few cents worth of bologna sausage for
which she gave bogus silver dollar in
payment. After close questioning she di-
vulged the name Of the party from whom
she obtained her supply of base coin,
which she afterward said was a lie. The
secret-service officers found only few of
the base coins on the women and they had
intended to keep the arrests secret in the
hope Of running the whole gang to cover.

LincOb's Half Hour as a Treasury
Watchman.

James Et:er, an old soldier who for over
twenty years has been one of the day
watchmen in the Winder Building, which
is occupied by the Bureau of the Second
Auditor of the Treasury, relates with
pride an interesting experience he had in
1868. AS he was alone in the building
one sultry July Sunday morning, tai,
clerical looking man entered fIom Seven
teenth street and politely asked him
whether Surgeon Barnes was in his Office.
He replied that Barnes had not been there
since the preceding day. The stranger
thanked him and retired, but returned
half an hour later with the same inquiry.
Again receiving reply in the negative,
he said:
Il am Mr.. Lincoln, the President. YoJ
allow me to take your place as wachman
while you go to Surgeon Barnes house
and tell him / want to see him. Let me
have your badge, and will sit right here
in your chair and carefully attend to your
duties till you come back.
The veteran, in relating the story, says
that for a moment he was speechless from
astonishment, but, quickly reco, ering
himself, he pinned his badge on the coat
of the President of the United States
and hurried off after DR.. Barnes, whom he
brought back with him.
Well, SAID the President, as ne re-
turned the badge to its rightful possess
sor, Il have proven true to my trust as
your substitute, and nothing has gone
wrong while You were away"
The old watchman feels proud to think
that he is the only policeman who was
ever relieved by the President. Surgeon
Barnes lived on Lafayette square, and it
took Etter half an hour to go there and
back; so for that space of time Abraham
Lincoln acted as watchman at the Treas
ury Department.

Abrupt Transitions.

1t was a justice of the high court to
whom, in former days, was attributed the
famous oxordium of charge to jury
in a case of larceny: For forty GEN.
turies the thunders of Sinai have echoed
through the world, Thou shalt not steal.
This is also a principle of the common
law and rule of equity" When Swift
and Pope made their celebrated excur-
sions into the art Of sinking into poetry
they never contriyed any batnos more
perfect or complete than this. Almost as
delightful, though expressed without the
same literary skill, is the sentence of a
president of a court martial: Prisoner,
not only have you committed murder,
but you have run a bayonet through the
breeches Of one of her Majestys uni
FORMS" Perhaps, however, the best
OF all such judicial utterances is that
ascribed to rural justice of the peace:
Prisoner, bountiful Providence has
endowed you with health and strength,
instead of which you go round the coun-
try stealing hens"

"OLD JACK" Is DEAD.

The Last Confederate War Horse Drops
Out of the Equine Ranks.
Lynchburg VA dispatch: The last
confederate war horse is suppose to have
died three days ago on the farm Of his
owner. Col. r. T. Craighill, near this city.
Stonewall jackson was his name, but he
was always called "Old Jack" for short.
He was 3a years old, was ridden in the
war from the spring of 1852 to the close,
and received three wounds in battle. His
owner intends to bury him where he died
and erect a monument to his memory.
From the autumn of 1888 to the close Of
the war "Old Jack" served as a riding
horse for Lieut. james B. Craighil of Col.
William Nelson's artillery battalion, now
the Rev. James b. Craighill of the diocese
of Maryland.
