An Example should Be Made.

A communication received at the health Office
some time in July complained of the action of
a colored undertaken named Edwards 1t ap-
peared that colcred girl named Maud Myers
died of diphtheria at the home of her par
ents in St. Mary's court near oath and II
streets, and it was reported that the
undertaken threw the ice and water from The
ice chest into the alley. 1t was stated that
some children in the alley ate some of the ice
and later ON two more deaths occurred. Id
dertaker Edwards called to account and h.
produced an affidavit making a denial of the
charge. as well as u certificate of his own good
character.
DR.. Osmun the sanitary inspector, was de
tailed to Investigate the case. but he f,iiled Ia
accomplish anything. Yesterday morning
Health Officer Hammett visited St. Mary's
court and he reports that the place is in good
sanitary condition.
He learned that Policeman Gouchcr had
sworn out u warrant charging the undertaken
with violating the health ordinance, but that
the latter had not been seen since the warran,
was procured. DR.. Hammett said that the
child said to hay. eaten the ice was not made
sick.
He said he hoped the police would find the
undertaken and prosecute him, ~ he thought al
example should be made of him.

Correspondence Of The Evening Star
LAUREL, Nd, September 26, 1892.
There is noticeable lack Of interest in polit-
ical circles, not only in this particular portion
of the fifth congressional district. but in the
county generally. SO far as can be learned. The
cholera scare and the reunion Of the Grand
Army of the Republic at Washington will prob
ably, in a measure, explain this lack of enthu-
siasm.
The exodus Of Grand Army folks from this
town, where they have been the guests of some
of our people during the encampment is tax
ing place and they are leaving on every train.
Their stay has been an enjoyable one, and all
Laurel has done every thing in its power to
make them comfortable and happy.
Town Treasurer b. G. Pritchard has an
nounced that all city taxes are due and in ar
rears October l, 1892, and will be charged in
terest from that date.
The question rs to whether the local trustees
for the public schools are bound to take the
oath of Office prescribed by the constitution has
been a source of some difference of opinion
among those having to do with the matter, and
it has been submitted to Attorney General Poe
of the state. who has submitted the following
opinion addressed to the state board of educa-
ton, which reads as follows: l see no reason
why district school trustees should be excused
from taking the oath Of Office prescribed by the
constitution. They are undoubtedly officers ap-
pointed under alaw made pursuant to the con-
stitution and the general regulation requiring
'every person hereafter elected or appointed
to office in this state to take the oath of office
plainly includes them. Section 10 of article n
of the code as amended and re-enacted by the
act of 1892. chapter $50, does not provide by
whom the oath shall be administered to them.
nor repeal, either in express terms or by
implication, Sections and 7 OF ar
tice II Of the code, title official
oaths. and accordingly 1 am of the opinion
that the district school trustees should take
and subscribe the oath of Office before the clerk
of the circuit courts Of the several counties AZ
provided by section 6 of that article. The
school board of Prince Georges county will
take offciai cognizanee Of this question at their
next meeting.

An Upward Movement, With Reading the
Exception.

ENceptfOn.
NEW YORK, Sept 26-The liquidation in
Reading for both sides Of the account seemed
to have been completed this morning and that
stock sank into a secondary position in the mar
ket. while the movement against the shorts
was apparently transferred to Northern

dictionary temper of Saturday was seen. and
opening advances over Saturdays final figures
further functional gains in almost everything
but Reading. The market was narrow, but the
strength displayed was positive and extended
To all portions of the list, but while
Northern Pacific preferred was pushed up y
Manhattan and distillers each per cent and
burlington, Texas Pacific and others large
fractions, the gains in the general list
were more moderate and the upward move
ment resulted in the development of
no further special feature. The strength of
the mirket remained unimpaired, however, and
at ii o'clock it was fairly active at the best
prices reached

while the gains were confined to small fractions
in most cases, Louisville and Nashville at

As a rule the same stocks were prominent

HIS STARTING POINT.
Mrs. Logan Gave Mr.. Hanford His First
Cue.

Mrs. Logan Gave Mr.. Hanford His First
Cue.
Mr.. Charles Hanford, the young actor who
makes his first appearance before Washing
ton audience this evening as a star at the Acad-
envy of Music in fine production of julius
Caesar, was given his first announcement to
60 upon the stage by Mrs. Gen. John A.
Logan.
at happened this way" said Mr. Hanford to
a STAR reporter this morning. at was in 1879,
at the graduating exercises of the High School.
had given recitation as my part OF the pro-
gram which seemed to have met with some
degree of favor from the audience.
'.Atthe close of the exercises was introduced
to Mrs. Logan by Prof. Paul In her good
motherly way she asked if my mother was liv-
ing. / told her she was dead. She continued
by saying that she had asked me the question
because she did not want to give me any nd
vice without first knowing whether it would
meet with my mothers approval.
''She then questioned me as to whether had
ever thought Of going upon the stage. l told
her that had never thought much about it,
To which she replied: II you were my son
would most certainly desire to have you enter
the dramatic profession
eff you will take my advice would suggest
that you go upon the stage, and if you do
am sure you will become prominent and bril-
liant actor.
Mrs. Logan's manner was so kind and full
Of sympathy that it made o most lasting i'm
preston upon my mind. 1t gave me also that
genuine encouragement which does young men
so much good, that at once
resolved to take her advice. She said to me as
well that could not hope to accomplish much
without industry.
"A young boy never had more cheering
words than those given me by Mrs. Logan and
what am in the dramatic profession may say
owe it oil to her. l now look back to the High
School commencement day as the starting
point in my career and Mrs. Logan gave me my
first cue."
