The first bench show of the Maryland kennel
club was successfully begun yesterday in the
Baltimore natatorium. Many prominent so.
ciety people were present The dogs are by
far the best lot that has ever been exhibited in
Baltimore. There are all sorts and conditions
of blue blooded dogs The benches are ranged
of the hall, and the .'big fellows" occupy an
entire section in the first row to the left at the
upper end Of the hall Plinlimmon, Jr., is ill
and his owner, Mr.. Sears, is sorely tried.
There are 31l dogs, and all save the unhappy
Plinlimmon were in the best of spirits. There
is but one dog muzzled in the entire lot. There
is nice lot OF Gordon settlers and big field OF
Chesapeake bay dogs. The display of spaniel:
is small but select. The display Of pugs is
fairly good. The judges are Mr.. James +. Pier.
son, Chesapeakes; Hon. John s. Wise of Vir.
ginia. pointers; H. Malcolm of Baltimore, Cor.
don settlers; Chas. ID. Cugel of Baltimore, bull
dogs; Jas. Mortimoer OF New York, all other
classes.
Judging was begun promptly At 10 o'clock.
The greatest interest was manifested in the
Chesapeake bay and Gordon setter dogs, the
former on account Of the dog fanciers who
have been looking forward to this show in
order to get some idea of what genuine Ches-
apeake bay dog is, the latter because of the
much agitated question Of superiority between
Little Bay" and Beaumont. Under the
judgment Of Mr.. Malcom Little Bay beat Beau
mont. In the bull dog class, judged by Mr.
Charles d. Cuge, Harper" beat "POrtsword
Tiger" a winner of many prizes MARY
won in the Chesapeake bay class. She il
owned by Mr.. ]. d. Mallory, well-known bust.
"Pomery Sec," and "Hesser," the SIS, 900 dog,
also captured first prizes Baltimore is well
pleased with the success Of this first show OF
the Maryland kennel club.

THE BUILDERS EXCHANGE.
They Purchase the First Baptist Church
Property on 18th Street.

Negotiations have been completed by the
builders exchange for the purchase Of the
property on the east side Of 18th street between
G and 81 streets formerly occupied by the
First Baptist church. The property was pur-
chased few weeks ago by MIR. Thomas J..
King for $4,000 and he transferred it to the
exchange for the same price. Mr.. King is the
secretary Of the exchange and he purchased
the property with the view of giving the ex-
change an opportunity to buy it. The propo-
sition was favorably acted upon and the money
was raised by the issue Of certificates of MEM
bership purchased by the members Of the cor
porate class in the exchange. The fund thus Sc
cured will be sufficient to pay for the property
and also to carry out the improvements which
are contemplated to make the building suitable
for the use of the exchange. The property
has frontage Of IS feet ON 18th street and ex-
tends back to a depth of l55 feet. 1t is
proposed to remove the present front
and extend the building to the building
line. The new front will be of stone. An ex-
hibit OF building material Is to be given a
prominent place in the new building, the whole
of the first floor, containing 5000 square feet,
being given up to that purpose. On the Sec
ond floor will be the rooms of the exchange
The work Of remodeling the building will be
begun at once and it is expected that the eX-
change will be in their new quarters by the LIST
Of August

Once a Noted Corresnondent


NJ. p Handy in Philadelphia North American
veteran newspaper man whose good work
in days gone by gave him place in the front
rank of Washington correspondents now lies
at the point of death in this city. When Andrew
johnson was President Of the United States the
dispatches Of "Data" in the PHILADELPHIA
Ledger and the Baltimore Sun, wallace" in the
Richmond Dispatch, 'Zeta" in the New Orleans
Times, and "DIbon" in several other leading
newspapers, were looked for with the utmost
eagerness from day to day as conveying the
most trustworthy news as to the Presidents
policy and the general course OF politics from
the Johnsonian point Of view. VIM. Wallace
Warden was the correspondent writing under
these sever al pen names, and his work yielded
him perhaps the largest income ever enjoyed
by Washington correspondent Warden came
to Washington from Cincinnati in 1862 as a cor
respondent Of the Cincinnati Enquirer. Before
that he had been a drug clerk, a lawyer, an
editor, publisher and musical and dramatic
critic. He published the first literary maya
zine ever issued from press west Of the Allie
ghenies. 1t was called Pen and Pencil" and
among its contributors we're N. P. Willis, Lyt-
tie, the author Of II am dying, Egypt, dying,
and many other popular writer's of the day.
MIR: Warden also edited Q Sunday newspaper,
and was favorite writer for the daily and
weekly press Of Cincinnati over the nom de
plume Of ubiquitous Allabout"
When he came to Washington Andy johnson
took great fancy to him and made him his
confidential secretary; SO that to the publishers
OF the papers for which he corresponded, il not
to the readers, all that he wrote had the stamp
OF semi-oficial sanction. With the succession
Of Grant to the presidency Warden's CORES
pondence lost this element Of value, but he con-
tinued in the field for some years and did good
work whenever he put his pen to paper. Later
he resumed the practice Of law and had fol-
lowed 1t with success until o few weeks ago,
when he had paralytic stroke. His son, Cliff
Warden, adopted his fathers profession and IL
now the efficient superintendent Of the press
gallery Of the Senate.

WOULD HAVE KILLED STEELE.
Wild Thought He Could Get Justice In
Civil Court.

After hearing Private Wilde directtestimony
yesterday in the Steele trial at Chicago the de-
Tense examined him and attempted to prove
that he had frequently expressed the wish that
he had killed Steele In reply to question a.
| to the truth Of this statement Wild replied: II
refuse to answer that question; it amt got
nothing to do with this case; amt on trial
here" He finally admitted that he had said
that he would rather have killed Steele than to
have struck him. because" he said, ~ could
get Justice in the United States court, but I
can't get no justice in q military court"
''Did you ever serve in the United States
army under the name Of E. P. WardY" asked
the counsel for the defense.
~ object" said the judge advocate, "on the
ground that this Ia irrelevant to this case"
position taken by the judge advocate. After
| the attorneys argued the point the court re-
| tired to an ante room to consider the question.
They returned after several minutes absence
and sustained the objection.
Lieut. Crowder then asked permission to
bring into court one McComas, who had known
Wild under the alias Of Ward. The court again
| retired to the counsel chamber and this time
ruled in favor Of the defendant.
McComas was then called in, and in his pres
ence Wild was asked if McComas was not his
CWild's) sergeant in the fifteenth infantry. The
question was not answered, as the judge advo-
cate objected to the question and the objec-
ton was sustained.
Corporal Hiram Scott, who had charge Of
Wild after his arrest, testified that he took
Wild back to Steele's house to obtain the miss
ing cap.
"What was the prisoners demeanor at the
timer" asked the judge advocate.
He appeared very angry"
The witness was then dismissed, but was
called back by the judge advocate, who in
CURED: ITO whom did Won refer vhen Won

Il referred to Lieut. Steele. Wild seemed
nervous. That was all noticed"
The audience again took occasion to applaud
showing their sympathy with the private.
The prosecution here rested the case and the
defense asked for more time in which to pre-
pare for the presentation of their case. The
court was accordingly adjourned until today,
