Stars and Stripes were carried in
the line, consisting of five divi-

JULIA BANKS, nee Cunningham, of Grand
Bay, Ala.
The time was so short when ruthless
death again invaded the home circle, and
one more link was broken from tho chain
on earth, TO be added to the chain in
heaven. On the Sth of January she Left

months from that day loving hands laid
her away in the silent home of the dead
Only five months a happy wife, and life
seemed to her so bright and fair that she
longed to live yet when the summons
came she was ready to go the faith OF
her childhood sustained her in death, and
she passed away, trusting fully in her
S2vior's love.
To the husband who loved her so well
to the sOrrO wing family, whose hearts are
smitten afresh by this blow, sc would
offer our sympathy, but words fail, and
we can only say "rrust in God" bcliev-
ing that "All things work together for

AN NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. BILL.
The Measure Which Mr.. McComas Is
Now Preparing.

MIR. McComas is preparing bill for the re-
publicans of the House to taks the place of the
Wickham bill to prevent gerrymandering by
the democrats in Ohio. Mr.. McComas' bill
will be more in the character of a permanent
provision to prevent gerrymandering in gen.
eral and for all time. 1t will provide that the
members of the Fifty-second Congress shall be
elected from the same districts as the members
of the Fifty-first Congress, and that after that
the reapportionment shall be made in the states
in accordance with the eleventh census, such
reapportonment to hold good until the twelfth
census. 1t provides also that the certificates of
the election of members shall be made to the
clerk of the House by the state canyassing
boards
This last clause would apply to the probable
situation at the next election in Ohio. Ii the
democrats of Ohio elect in the new districts of
their own making and the republicans refuse
to recognize the new districts but run in the
old it would give two full delegations of
twenty-oae members one delegation republic
can and the other democratic.
The governor, being a democrat. would prob
ably certify to the election of the democrats
and. as it now is, the clerk of the House would
have to make up his roll upon these certiti-
Gates. the republicans having to stand as con-
ties tants.
With this new provision, however, the Attor-
ney General and Secretary OF State who with
the governor constitute the canvassing board
being both republicans, the republicans might
be certified

SHE LEAPED TO DEATH.
A Woman Killed In a Runaway Acct
dent This Afternoon.

fatal runaway accident occurred this after
noon shortly before o'clock. horse attached
to a wagon driven by Mrs. Ann Hessler ran
away from some place not far from the o street
market. Mrs. Hessler leaped from the vehicle
at 9Th and 4 streets and was almost instantly
killed.
The runaway horse came down the 9th street
hill, just south of NJ street, at a three-minute
gait and came near colliding with several other
vehicles. Mrs. Hessler, who is an elderly
woman, held the reins and did her best, but
she was unable to manage the frightened
horse.
When the corner Of K street was reached the
horse attempted to turn the corner and 60 to
the street market, but the wagon overturned.
The upsetting of the vehicle threw the horse
to the ground and it was then that the old lady
thought she would jump and save herself, but
she made her last leap for life.
DR.. Stockstili was called at once, but his
services were useless; she was dead. There
was a bad fracture of the skull in the front
portion Of her head, which evidently caused
death.
Policeman Trainor. who saw the accident,
sent for the patrol wagon and removed the re-
mains Of the dead woman to the morgue. Mrs.
Hessler's husband is a cripple and has
truck garden on the Brentwood road. Mrs
Hessler had been at the y street market and
not having sold all her produce, was on her
way to the h street market, where she expected
to dispose of il. The horses left leg was broken

TRlCKED BY A WOMAN.
An Alleged ImpOstor Arrested-UsiDs
Mrs. HarrisOn's Name.

81 want to see Mrs. Harrison" said colored
woman who called at the White House yesrer-
day. She was a good looking and nicely
dressed woman. Her name is Annie Coleman
and she lives at No. 103 Sd street, opposite the
botanical gardens. In a short time it was
ascer tained that the woman honestly expected
to become one of Mrs. Harrson's walters at
grand reception she had been told was to &C.
cur st. Patrick's pight.
The door keeper at the White House soon dis
covered that the woman was the victim of some
sort of Misrepresentation and he telephoned to
police headquar tiers for an officer.
Detectives Horne and Mahon responded and
heard the colored womans statement. She
said that white woman called at her house
SEINE days ago and said she was looking for
colOred women to act as maids and mattresses
at the St. Patricks night reception at the
White House. Mrs. Coleman was ready and
anxious to accept the position, and the alleged
agent of Mrs. Harrison made the necessary ar
rangements for the performance OF her duty.
SHE GAVE HER MONEY
Mrs. Coleman gave her So as the first INSTALL
ment toward the purchase of the costume said
to be required; then she gave her 81 on two
occasions and then SIS, making in all S32. The
white woman in return furnished Mrs. Coleman
some fancy dress goods, but not of an expen-
sive character.
Mrs. Coleman was to have paid another 81
today, but she became suspicious OF the white
woman's actions and went to the White House.
yesterday to see if her suspicious were we'll
founded.
A WOMAN ARRESTED.
The officers looked into the case last night
and this morning they arrested woman Civ
ing her name as Cordelia X. Clements. She is

Mrs. Clements also claims to be canvasser
They have been travelling from one city to
another. When arrested Mrs. Clements adj
mitted to the officers that she received some
money from the colored woman, but said she
intended to return it to her later.
The woman was locked up at the first pre-
cinct station and will probably be given hear
ing Monday morning

A BIG BUILDING WANTED.
Steps Taken Last Evening I'm the Interest
of the Central Union Mission.

The house of B. II. Warner was the scene last
evening of a large and enthusiastic meeting in
the interest of the Central Union mission,
which has apparently outgrown its present
quarters. According TO the reports submitted
last night this mission, which is the work OF
the churches of all denominations among
the non-church-going classes, has been
during the past five years of its ex-
istence an astonishingly effective instrument
in reaching the dissipated and the vicious, and
in many cases working complete transforma-
ton in their lives and bringing them back to
usefulness and virtue and introducing them
into the organized churches of the city. Their
present quarters at the main hall OIL Pennsvl-
vania avenue have become too contracted to
hold the people who desire to attend and hun
dreds are turned away weekly.
The lease to the present quarters
will soon expire and the management
desire large and permanent quarters. Such
was the report presented by the board of direc-
tors at the meeting at Mr.. Warmers last night:
and after words of Endorsement and encourage
ment from a large number of clergymen and
laymen. including DR.. Hamlin of the Church
OF the Covenant DIR. Corey of the Metropoli-
tan NJ. E. church, DIR. Newman of the Con-
gregational church, DR.. Steele of St Marks
Episcopal church and DIR. Greene of Calvary
Baptist church, Justice Strong sugges-
ted that two resolutions were in
order: 1st That there is pressing
need OF n permanent building for the Central
Union mission. ID That committee of three
persons be appointed to ascertain a suitable
location ana price of same and report at
future meeting-and on motion of DIR. Baldwin
of the Rynald NE. church and Mr.. Leighton
of Waugh NJ. Z. church these resolutions were
unanimously adopted. The following commit
tee was appointed: Messrs. B. +. Leighton,
/. A. Harding and l. G.. Kimball

THE CONVENTION ADJOURNS.
Closing Session of the Woman Suffrage
Association.

The largest crowd that has attended any of
the meetings this week was in Lincoln hall last
night for the closing session of the National
American woman suffrage convention. The
exercises were begun by vocal duet by Miss
johnson and Mrs. Laura Ormiston Chant en-
titled GOOD Night"
The burden of the address on the subject
"A whole humanity" by Mrs. Zerelda G.
Wallace, was an argument to prove that
womans freedom did not mean competition
but cooperation in the work of the world.
Rev. Olympia Brown of Wisconsin discussed
the question, Where is the mistake?" and Rev.
Annie H. Shaw of Illinois spoke on .'Our un-
conscious allies"
Miss Anthony delivered the presidents clos
ing address, In which she referred to the work
Of the convention and the appeals that had
been made for aid. She said that this was the
twenty-second year that they had been striving
to obtain justice, and still they had not reached
the longed-for aid. She urged them ali, how
ever, not to cease their labors until their Just
demands have been granted After some
musical selections the convention of 1890 was
declared finally adjourned.

The Pioneer of Efficient Journalism at
Washington.

From the New Haven Register.
The Washington EVENING STAR felicitates
itself justly upon its growth and present
position in the world of newspaperdom. IL
has every reason to do SO. The STAR was the
pioneer of efficient journalism in the capital
city. Previous to Its appearance Washington
newspapers were of little account and enjoyed
but little influence. But The STAR threw itself
into the field with trained energy and YOUTH
full enthusiasm and soon made itself an inn
portant factor in political and social life. We
congratulate our esteemed contemporary.
May Its popularity and influence increase in
proportion to its deserts.

SELLING THE NEW STAMPS.
A Few OF the 1890 Issue Were Put Out
Today From the Post Office.

= The new style Of postage stamps were placed
on sale today at the city post Office, but there
was no particular run on the bargain counter
at the city post Office where that commodity is
disposed of. To the majority of purchasers the
old style sickly green were given, and only the
few curious ones who asked for the dark car
mine twos succeeded in getting them.
The Postmaster Generals order calls upon
all offices to get rid of their old stamps before
the new ones are put on sale generally. There
are still lots Of green ones in the safes at the
city post Office, but fortunately they can all be
disposed Of in a few days and then the new
style will appear in force and red will once
more be the prevailing color in letter decora-
ton.

Special Rates to Theatrical Companies
Declared Illegal.

decision Of the interstate commerce com
mission in the case Of the Pittsburg, Cincinnati
and St. Louis railway company against the
Baltimore and Ohio railroad company has been
announced. The opinion was written by Com
missioner veazey. The complaint alleges that
the Baltimore and Ohio railroad company has
adopted and has in operation party rates." So
called. whereby parties of ten or more persons
travelling together on one ticketare transported
at 2 cents per mile, which is less than the reg
uiar rate for single person. and that said COM
pany also sells round "trip excursion tickets
without publicly posting the rates at which
said tickets are sold. In this case counsel APP
peared not only for the respondent, but also in
behalf of the managers of theatrical companies,
who are claimed to be specially interested in
maintaining these so-called party rates. BY
the decision of the commission the Baltimore
and Ohio railroad company is therefore re-
quired to Immediately cease and desist from
the sale OF party rate tickets and ordered to
print and post excursion rates.
