A SAD-EYED SWINDLER.
He Orders a Burial Casket for His Dead
Sister and Effects u Small Loan.

Probably the meanest case Of obtaining
money by false pretenses ever attempted in
this city was worked here last night, but the
cunning sharper only got 80 cents by his scheme,
which was intended no doubt to secure for him
self a larger amount About $50 O'Clock pm.
a sad-eyed man bearing the appearance Of a
wel-to-do mechanic in distress entered the I'M
dertaking establishment Of Mr.. Richard F..
Harvey, 928 Pennsylvania avenue, and intro
duced himself as Mr.. Sullivan of Rutland,
VT He said his sister had just died near the
corner Of II and 21st streets northwest; that he
was a stranger in the city, having come here on
account of a telegram he had received from
Father O'Sullivan Of st. Peters Church, stat
ing that his sister was at the point Of death
with consumption. He said he left his work as
a stone cutter and without any preparation
took the next train for this city, and sincs his
arrival here he had been continu Justly at her
| bedside. He referred to Father O'Sulliva..,
ex-Gov. Proctor, Judge Bsbee and Others as to
his responsibility. These references were
deemed satisfactory and he went on to say that
he would like to have his sisters body en-
balmed, and he then selected a white casket
and ordered a silver plate engraved to 60 Oh it.
The amount OF the bill made at the UNDER
takers was SI05 for which the man gave a
check on the Kellington National Bank at Rut-
ldnu, W., signing tne name W. y. SULLIVAN
The plate ordered for the casket was engraved
Mary E. Sullivan, died April 8, 1880, aged
twenty-five years.
The certificate of death was filled up as fol-
lows: MARY Elizabeth Sullivan, female, aged
twenty-five years and eleven months; color,
white; occupation, milliner; birthplace, Rut-
land, VT; duration OF residence, three weeks;
nativity of father and mother, Ireland; place
of DEATH 2l40 II street northwest"
He stated that he desired to leave with the
body on train this morning and was careful
to ask that all arrangements be made that he
should not be delayed. just rs he was leaving
he placed his hand in his pocket, remarking:
Il haven't bit of change and have some few
purchases to make, and asked one OF the attend
ants if he would assist him. Luckily the young
man had only 30 cents. This Mr. Sullivan took
and left the store, stating that he would meet
them at the house where his sister died. DR..
Mclaughlin was called on to fill up the certifi-
cate OF death in order to obtain the burial per-
nit, but he could ind no person of the name
of Sullivan at the number given, and the EN-
balmer could not find a corpse there.
Mr.. Sullivan is described rs u rather good
looking, sandy-haired man Of about thirty-ive
years of age and nearly six feet tall

DISTRICT GOVERNMENT.
TO EXTEND POTOMAC AVENUE.

TO EXTEND POTOMAC AVENUE.
Recently the Commissioners received a pc
titiOp from j. H. Smoot and Others praying for
the opening of Potomac avenue, in George
town, from to P streets The matter was
referred to Capt. Rosseli for report. Today he
submitted a tracing Of the ground with the
statement that nothing could be done to open
this street except by q special appropriation
from Congress. He says it seems desirable
thing to do could an appropriation be obtained
for the condemnation of the land, and thinks
II would be well to do il.
TO WIDEN STREET.
At a meeting of the Citizens Association OF
East Washington last January resolution was
passed requesting the Commissioners to ask
Congress to pass an act increasing the width oil
south B street between LIST and "a streets east
TO the additional extent Of so feet. Capt Ros.
sell, in his report to the Commissioners re-
Gently, says that to widen this street 1t will be
necessary to take a portion of the lot on which
the new library building is now being con-
structed. He says he understands that ii is
proposed to widen this street so feet, and that
this cannot be done unless legislation is OBJ
tanned from Congress. In conclusion he says
he thinks the Commissioners should ask for the
legislation to widen the street. The Commits
sioners have approved his recommendation.
GUIDE STONES FOR STREET EXTENSIONS.
The subject Of setting guide stones for extern
sion Of the city beyond its present limits and
along the District line has been before the Com
missioners for some time. Superintendent Men,
denhall of the Coast aud Geodetic Survey re-
piled to letter of Col Robert today on the
suit ject He says that after careful eIamins-
ton he finds that the stones will cost about S25
apiece. The location Of these stones, he says.
in accordance with q plan based upon true
north and south line passing through the CEN
ter Of the Capitol building and system OF
rectangular co-ordinates referred to. so that
north and south and east and west streets shall
be parallel instead Of arcs OF great and small
circles, will cost about $50 per stone, making
the stone when in position cost about s55 each
He says he does not think ii practicable to e.
tablish these stones out Of the current appro-
pristion, because he thinks it most advisable to
complete the Typographical survey according to
the assurance already given the appropriation
committee. The Commissioners think that the
above plan is the best that can be adopted and
an effort will be made to secure the appropria-
ton therefor.

They Won the Prizes,

When the sixty-ninth New York regiment
offered valuable prizes for the two best-drilled
men in the Nationa! Guard Of the United
States it did no. suppose that any one outside
of the sixty-ninth would capture them. Two
Washington soldiers went up there, however,
and when the contest came off yesterday they
had the trophies. The winner OF the first prize
was Sergeant Charles ]. Harlow of the Emmett
Guards OF this city, and the second place was
secured by Corporal David W. NeliRan Of the
same organization. There were about thirty
five men competing. Harlow and Neligan ar
rived home today, bringing their trophies with
them.

A WEATHER FLAG.

And they are likewise true;
The spring snow storms are very White
And all the wind is Blue.

Shortfellow sends in this which he calls:

When the clocks were striking the hour,
The result Of beastly mixture
OF beer with whisky sour.
And think how many thousands
OF beer encountered men,
Each bearing his burden of sorrow,
Have crossed the jag since then.
But now it has fallen from me,
1t is buried in the sea,
And only the jaglets Of others
Throw their shadows over me-
The weather and the interior towns appear
to have come to blows.
