HILARIOUS Fun, worlds fair.-Adrt.
She Thinks She is Wealthy.

This morning in the Police Court a colored
woman answering the name Maria Brown was
charged with threatening the life of Mrs. John
son of No. 5O7 18th street, at whose house she
has been employed as a servant Mrs. johnson
told of Maria's peculiar conduct and OF her
violent and threatening language. On one &C.
casion, she said, Maria, threw a hot pan at her
and at another time she struck her on her arm.
Maria was questioned by the court and il ap-
peared that her delusiOn was that she was a
wealthy property owner and among other
houses she claimed she owned the one in which
Mrs johnson, her employer, resides. When
asked how she came TO buy the house she said
that she had 100000, but that her property
holder had charge Of her affairs and she did
not care 10 talk about them in court. Her only
delusion seemed to be that she owned property.
and when any one did not believe what she told
them she became violent. The court commit
ted her in order that she might be examined as
70 her mental condition.

DISTRICT GOVERNMENT
MrsT ERECT A GATE.


Several DAYS ago the Commissioners SUBJ
mitted to the attorney for opinion the papers
received by them relative to the dangerous rail-
road crossing at Ivy City. The assistant attor-
ney, Mr.. S. I. Thomas, rendered the opinion,
in which he says: The condition of the law is
such in regard to your right to compel the
railroad company to place a gate at this point
that deemed it advisable to confer with the
attorneys Of the company OH the subject, the
result Of which was they advised their clients
to erect the gate. 1 am assured thls crossing
will be at once attended to-"
The Commissioners will wait few days be-
fore proceeding further.
WILL NOT GRANT THE PERMIT.
On April %. 1880, Nicolai Bros. applied to
the Commissioners to lay an iron pipe line I'M
derground from the freight yard of the Balti-
more and Potomac Railroad Company on South
Capitol street across l street southeast, into
square 6s6, or from the freight yard along l
street. South Capitol street thence into south
west, thence to Half street, into square 645 At
present there exists pipe line belonging to the
Washington Gas Light Company parallel to
this latter route. The attorney for the District
recommended that the Commissioners adhere
to the opinion of ex-Attorney Riddle and re-
fuse the permit. Subsequent to this the assist
ant attorney for the District said in an opinion
that he knew of no law that would prevent the
commissioners from granting the permit, pro-
vided the work was done under their direction.
As there seemed to be a disagreement in the
two opinions above referred to the Commits
sioners requested the attorney to advise them
whether or not he desired to modify the opin-
ion. The attorney says that his opinion Of Au-
gust 81, 1890, was intended to overrule any
other opinion given on the subject. The opin-
ion he says, which differed from the one sub
mitted by him. was submitted without consul
tation with the attorney. The Commissioners
will refuse to grant the permit.
NAMES FOR THE NEW SCHOOL BUILDINGS.
In response to q request from the Commits
sioners asking that names be given for the two
new eight-room public colored school build
ings for the seventh and eighth divisions
Trustees Cronish and Bruce have recon-
mended that the one on street between 9th
and 2Sth be named Phillips, in honor of Wen
dell Phillips, the great advocate for human
rights, and the one on T street near NORTH
Capitol street Slater in honor of Slater, who
was SO very muniticent in the devotion of his
means for the education OF colored youth.
The Commissioners have approved the names.
