TATsiD CHAT.

An old Cou!cdprate soldier who
lives not far from Dawson, found
his way into the News sanctum a
few days ago. This old soldier
told good anecdote on himself.
One day il the sixties he was
drunk on the streets of Richmond
and met face to face Jefferson
Davis, whom he had never
seen before, but reco .niz"d from
his portrait on the Confederate
postage stamps. He stopped Mr..
Davis and said in silly, into::i,
Gated ma lnev: "Afe you MIR. Da-
vis?' Il a n, sir" was the digni,
fed reply. The President of the
Southern Confcderac,?" 81 have
that honor, sir" II thought %,
you look so much like a pos taee
stamp" The amount of cheek
that this gentleman carried with
him on that occasion he carries
with him now. It is always well
for one to keep his eye Oh hin.

in Maryland Saturday. Activity was especially
shown in the two congressional districts bord-
ering on the District. the 9th and sixth, rep
resented by Mr.. Mudd and Mr.. McComas, re-
spectively. It 10 practically conceded that
both these gentlemen will be renominated this
year, although in Mr.. Mudd's district there 10
some opposition to the young Congressman
from Charles county. No one has gained much

Thos. Clagett OF Prince George are spoken of
as available candidates There 10 no opposi-
ton to Barnes Compton as the democratic
standard bearer, and his nomination Will be
unanimous
In the sixth district the republican nomina-
ton is a wakover for Mr.. McComas. the only
possible available candidate against him being
disposed of when Mr.. Wellington of Allegheny
Was appointed subtreasurer. 1t is also pretty
near surety that Mayor McKaig Of Cumber-
land will be tho democratic candidate.

over the NTH district. except an the seventeenth
ward for delegates TO the county conventions

Death Of u Venerable Scientist.

Mr.. Chas. Louis Fleschmann, aged eighty
four years, died yesterdays at his rooms in Meyers
Hotel, where he has been living for the past
twenty years. Mr.. Fleischmann was promi-
nent some years ago as a scientific Investigator.
He was born in Bavaria and was connected with
the Patent Office as early as 1882 He assisted
Prot. Morse IN his early experiments with the
telegraph. and in l847 he was sent abroad by
the government to investigate the practical
bility Of improving the breed of sheep in this
country by importation. He held the position
OF consul at Stuttgart and in 1855 he was =
member OF the international jury of the Paris
exposition. He has published u number of ar
tices ON literary, economic and scientific sub
1ects. by many who are familiar with the HIS
tory OF the hrst experiments with telegraphy
MIR. Fleischman il credited with doing much
toward inducing Congress to take hold Of the
matter. 1t was his success in interesting emf
nent men IN Europe in the telegraph, 1t is said
that awoke people in this country to realiza-
ton OF the fact that q new and great engine of
civilization had been produced. Mr.. Fieisch-
man Is survived by only one member Of his
family, his daughter Amelie, who recently re-
turned from Europe. The funeral takes place
from Meyers Hotel at 4:30 o'clock today. The
remains will be buried in the Congressional
Cemetery.

MANY In THE POLICE COURT.
One Hundred and Thirty-Three Cases
Before Judge Mills Today.

There was the usual large number Of prison.
ers in the Police Court today and the docket
was probably the longest in the history Of the
court There were sixty-eight prisoners in the
dock and sxty-fve persons out on collateral,
making total Of 1873 cases. OF the prisoners
confined in the dock nineteen were women and
q large majority OF both sexes were colored
These cases are the result Of the work Of the
police during the forty-eight hours ending at
o'clock this morning. During that time the
officers arrested l74 persons, Of whom liz were
colored
While the number OF cases before the court
today was unusually large the number Of pris-
oners actually locked up in the dungeons was
not near SO great as on many former occasions.
There were something like one hundred and
twenty prisoners locked up in court the day
following Christmas year ago. The cool
weather this morning was the only thing that
prevented suffering among the ungortunates.
They were distributed in the two cells, in the
hallway and in the court room

The Bridge Regatta.

The question of regatta on the Eastern
Branch on the day of the bridge celebration
has received considerable attention from the
officers Of the local boat clubs, who seem as a
rule to favor 1t heartily. MIR. Hood. president
OF the Columbia Athletic Club. and Mr.. Finley,
president OF the PotorQacs, have held a number
OF consultations about the matter during the
last week. President Maddox was unable to
attend tine meetings of the regatta committee
as he has been out of town for some time past
Owing to the distance of the Eastern Branch
course from the different boat houses a regatta
would be attended with considerable difficulty
but the clubs are so much interested in the
opening CT the new Pennsylvania avenue bridge
and the proposed regatta that notwithstanding
this they viii probably row on the 26th of this
month.
