THE Ex-sEA CAPTAIN.

The ex-sea captain who now guides the
journal, and who once made voyage to
the Samoan Islands, reioloes in the fact
that Robert Louis Stevenson, the eminent
man OF letters who lives there, now has
become recognized as political factor.
"He's English, y'know."
But the "literary feler" who is Presi-
dent OF Brown University is not tit for
the Senate, according to theex-sea captain.

neither should he, IL he intends to per-
form his duty faithfully and honestly, be
restrained from enforcing law by any
official no matter how high his authority
may be. The eyes OF the people are centered
upon Chief Perry and they want to see
him rise to the occasion as 1t presents It's
self.
His motto should be, "Hew to the line,
let the chips fall where they will" In
other words, enforce the law as he finds
it and let those responsible for the an

at the proper time.

DRAWBACK CERTIFICATES.
A Conference Between the Commissioners,
the Attorney and the Collector.


The Commissioners have had under con-
sideration the construction of the law of May
%. 1892, relative to the receipt of drawback
certificates issued under the act of June 2. 1890.
Assistant Attorney Thomas and Collector of
Taxes Davis were present at conference held
yesterday. The act of May % referred to pro-
vides that only one-half OF the drawback GER
tfcates outstanding at that date shall be re-
ceived during the current fiscal year and the
other half to be receivable for current taxes Of
and during the next fiscal year. The amount
outstanding was $50, 694.s6. 1t was con-
tended by certain parties interested in settling
tax accounts that the meaning of this law was
that one-half of the amount of drawback GER
tifcates outstanding should be receivable for
the current general taxes OF this year and the
remainder for like taxes of next year. The at
torney gave it as his opinion that "a the law
made these drawbacks receivable for all general
taxes il meant both arrears and current general
taxes. and that the collector could only receive.
Of taxes. during the current fiscal year. one
half of the sum of the certificates outstanding
May 25 or Sal, S47.43. The Commissioners de-
cided to sustain the attorney III his view. As
.he collector has already received for arrears
S2S. 700 of these drawbacks there will be but
3.l41.43 receivable for current taxes during
the present Year. The Commissioners also de-
cided that the drawback certificates issued since
May 25. 1892 shall be receivable at any time
for arrears OF general taxes.

To the Fdi OF of The Evening Star:
In the interest of public health wish to call
attention to the system of alleged inspection
fish were purchased from a market dealer which
were so decomposed that their presence in the
house was uncomfortable after cooking. Thinking
it possibly an unintentional mistake. the dealer
was politely askeG to replace the fish. He did
so. but his clerk claimed that the fish were per
fectly sound and demanded pay for the second
bunch. which was OF course refused. Two days
ago some fish were again purchased from him.
which were likewise spoiled. This time the in
spector sent for. but he never came. He
was again notified. but instead of examining the
fish either he the Waterman informed the
dealer that a charge against him had been made.
The latter came to the house, asked the servant
girl TO let him see the fish, seized them and
walked off, saying they belonged to him. He
subsequently returned the money paid for
them.
Now wish to know what right the inspector
or the Waterman had to say ANYTHING whatever
to the dealer until after the fish had been cx-
amined. As l understand it, it is the duty of
vent any spoiled provisions from being sold.
What the inspector actually does is not only to
allow the sale of provisions in any stage of de-
composition. but to ignore all complaints. ex-
cept far to warn dealers in cases where
complaint il made. that they can by m
lawful means destroy the evidences of their dis
honesty.
There are many other dealers beside the one
referred to who guilty. Six persons in
this one house can testify to the truth of what
is here charged. Z. p. L.

Rescuing Victims Of the Roumania.

Conflicting statements are made bv the Las
cars saved from the steamer Roumania, wrecked
of the Portuguese coast One, who was on the
bridge at the time of the disaster, saws: 1.-The
steamer grated on the rocks more than once
and she began leaking before she struck the
last time. The captain, on perceiving that the
steamer was lost and seeing the ships boat
swamped, jumped into the sea and was drowned.
One officer, conspicuous for his GOODNESS, ex-
horted the passengers to be calm, saying they
might be saved. but his words were not needed
Another officer urged the passengers to remain
in the cabins. there being he said. no cause for
alarm. Another Lascar declared that the cap
tain OF the steamer was in bed at the time of
the disaster.
As the police are unable to prevent the fish
ermen from robbing bodies washed ashore the
coast is now ceaselessly patroled by military
guards. Even the body of a negress that was
washed ashore was plundered. a belt around
the waist. containing gold and silver. being
stolen and the earrings being taken from the
ears.
The Portuguese military authorities are do
ing their best to assist the survivors. The
chief officers have personally visited Capt.
Hamilton to express their sympathy Capt
Hamilton is distracted over the loss Of his wife.
to whom he was married only three months
ago, and with whom he was returning to his
post in the Indian staff corps. He declares
that he will not leave Penilche until her body is
found.

THE TENLEYS AND THEIR TOWN.
An Old Document which Settles a Dispute
About the Name.


There is in the possession of Mr.. VIM Britt,
who resides on the Tenleytown road Just where
the Rockville turnpike and the River road Join,
the last will and testament of Sarah the eldest of
the three who composed the now much
talked-of Tenley family, after whom the thriv-
ing place to the north of Georgetown was
named. The Tenley family, as it existed when
the town was named" said Mrs. Britt, con-
neetion of the Tenleys, to a STAR reporter,
consisted of two sisters, Sarah and Elizabeth,
and their brother John. The three originally
came from Charles county. Nd. and, buying
the property on part of which our house now
stands lived there until their death. None of the
three ever married, but lived happily together
John working rs n blacksmith and the two girls
a. weavers. In 1895. a few houses having been
erected in the neighborhood and the residents
desiring TO be definitely located by correspond
ents. they decided to give a name to their
locality. As the Tenleys had always been highly
thought OF and as tradition SAYS many dispute
had been satisfactorily settled by the head of
the Tenlev family. and as 'Tenleys' among the
surrounding people had begun to mean the
country III the near vicinity of that family, it
was agreed that thereafter the country around
the Tenley homestead should be known as
Ienleytown. As to the spelling of the name
there can now be no dispute. as in characters
steady and legible the last of the three signed
her name to the will-Sarah Tenlev-and is so
recorded in the Office of the register of Wills
John Tenley, Mrs. Britt says. died compare
lively young. and did not live to ripe old age.
as has been stated.

INDIAN EDUCATION.
Status OF. the Various Religious Denomina-
lions in Relation to 1t.


lions in Relation to 1t.
The present status of the various religious de-
nominations Of the country in relation to Indian
education Is stated at the Indian office to be as
follows:
The Baptists, who have never received any
help from the government, are prosecuting a
work successfully principally among the five
civilized tribes Of the Indian territory.
The Methodists. who have heretofore received
aid from the government. formally withdrew
by the action of the general conference. which
met In Omaha last summer. and hereafter will
decline to accept anything from the public
treasury.
The general assembly OF the Presbyterian
Churcn, Mt Its meeting in Portland. Ore. last
summer, took similar action. and at the close of
aid.
Inc Episcopalians. in their recent convention
In Baltimore. followed the example of the
other religious bodies above named, and will
educational work.
Thursday last at Hartford. Conn. the Ameri-
can Missionary Association. representing the
congregational denomination, voted almost
unanimously that hereafter they will decline to
accept government subsidies.
ine other religious denominations now re-
ceivlng assistance from the government are the
roman Catholics, Luthcrans Friends and
Mennonites. 1t is said TO be probable that
during the next fiscal year some of these con-
tract schools conducted by the denominations
which have lately withdrawn will be carried on
by means OF largely increased contributions
from the churches. Others will be turned over
to the government, while in some cases the
pupils now taught in contract schools will be
provided in the new government schools now
approaching completion. Before the close Of
the present fiscal year there will be in successful
operation twenty more reservation training
schools like those at Carlisle. Pa, Lawrence,
Kan. and Genoa, Neb., with an aggregate
capacity for 5000 pupils In addition to those
several new reservation schools arc rapidly ap-
preaching completion.
