The Dltty Case.

The hearing of Mrs. DittV, charged
with keeping disorderly house, took
place last night in the Jail Office, JUS
tice Geo. Arkle conducting the examin-
alton. Col. w. w. Arnett and j. ID.
EIson appeared IS counsel for the de-
PENDANT. A number OF people living
along Market street, and In Alley G.,
were summoned as witnesses, and
testified TO the character Of the
house, and to the general racket pro-
ceeding therefrom almost nightly. De-
PENDANT testified that she sprained her
ankle, and was unable to be out of bed
at the time witnesses claim to have seen
her. She also told Of other houses In
the vicinity, and women who rent rooms
there for immoral purposes. She blamed
the noise and disorder upon these
houses.
Counsel for Mrs. Ditty asked post
ponement of further hearing until two
O'Clock this afternoon, in order to sum-
mon other witnesses for defense, which
was granted.
The cases against FIVE inmates and
two loiterers In the house were then
called. COL Arnett moved to dismiss
the cases against the women, on the
ground that the bad character OF the
house was not proven. The motion was
overruled, when the women waived an
examination. and were held in the sum
of $50 each to await the action OF the
Grand Jury. The two men were also
held.

A SERIOUS ARRAY
Ar AEDERsONVIILB, MARSHALL COUNTY,
SUNDAY NIGHT.
James Evans Drained in Drunken Row-A. B
whitsOu Plead Guilty, and Got Two Years IN
the Psn-Dr. AshbrOOk's Case NOllisd.

Marshall county is again the scene OF
q probable murder-the fourth so far
this year.
The scene Of the latest crime was at
a little hamlet called Andersonville on
Hartes Run, about six miles from
Cameron, and the time was about Mae
o'clock Sunday night.
The ARRAY seems to have been sort
OF drunken melee between James
Evans. Wilson and Harvey Adams
brothers, and a man named Yoder.
Evans was the victim, his skull having
been crushed from behind by stone
thrown by one of the Adams, and was
also seriously cut with knife, also the
work of one of the Adam boys. Infor-
nation from Cameron last night stated
that the wounded man was alive, but
in q dangerous condition. He is aged
about thirty years, and has a wife and
four children.
The whole party is reported to have
been very much under the influence OF
LIQUOR at the time. The row is supposed
to be the sequel of one which occurred
between the TWO Adams men and Evans,
on their way home from Cameron, about
a month ago, in which Evans got much
the best OF it. Evans formerly held the
position of Waterman at yelling tunnel
on the B. q o., and was discharged
some time ago and the position given
IN Pete Adams. brother of Wilson and
Harvey, and this may have created bad
feeling. One Of the Adams boys was
arrested and other arrests will follow.

There is, perhaps, no subject of more gen
eral Importance than the education of III.
young, and it will be therefore gratifying tc
all interested in the welfare of our county tc
hear Of the satisfactory progress made by the
school at Bel Alton, under the superinlendance
ofMrs. VIM. NJ. Howard.
The number of pupils having largely in
creased it was fosnd necessary to add another
room to the school building for their accom-
mediation. This has now been completed
through the untiring energy of the School
Trustees adding greatly to the comfort and
well being of the scholars. There are now
sixty-eight pupils on the school roll, thirty of
whom are in the first grade-a proportion
hitherto unprecedented in the schools OF the
county.
The Trustees, Messrs p W. Rehy, c. F.
Hayden and F. H. Wills, have devoted much
time, care and labor, TO promote the improve
ment ami success of the school, and deserve
the thanks and praise Of all concerned for the
good work they have now accomplished
The satisfactory progress Of the scholars is
due to the unwe4rying efforts Of their able
tescher, Mrs. WIN. NJ. Howa ID, whose deep
interest on behalf of The school meets with
the kindly consideration and due appreciation
ofthe School Commissioners.

Anotber steamer Burned.

On. Sunday morning last The side-wheel
steamer, w. w. Colt, which had been used
duling the past summer for excursions, was
discovered to be on fire. The steamer was
living in the river of 18th street wharf
Washington, and before the alarm could ne
turned in the flames had enwrapped the whole
vessel. The flames burned until the water
line was reached. Then what was left ofthe
old hull rocked few times and sunk to the
bottom, few burning timbers floating down
the river. Only the watchman, James A.
Richardson, Yves aboard the vessel when the
conaagratiou broke out. Since the river ex-
cursious to Notify Hall were discontinued for
the season, the boa. has not been in service
except to take the place Of the Pilot Boy on
the ferry for few days while the latter was
undergoing repairs. When these few days Of
service we're over the crew WAS dismissed and
the boat tied up. The steamer Belonged 10

was insured for SIS. 600, which will cover all
losses. The Crit was an old boat, having
been built many years ago to run on Long

new and modern boats, she was placed on the

CoIonists in Maryland.

Mr.. YIN. McCracken writes to the Sun,
from Horton, Kan, to the effect that he is
forming colony Of old soldiers to settle in
Maryland. He says it is proposed to buy
tract of good land AMI build a Town, and asks
to be advised where good location could be
secured on the inlets of the Chesapeake BAY,
where small boats may land. Though he
proposes that the settlement shall be called a
soldiers colony, others will be invited to Join
the enterprise and al go into the business Of
truck farming. In reply we have to say thai
in nearly every Underwater county of Mary
land there are opportunities for settlers ia
families or colonies. Nc hetter plan could be
followed by new corners than that pursued b,
:he colony from Kansas, which has lust sell
tied on the Nantieoke, in Dorchester county,
and which has been reinforced By a second
contingent. They negotiated with a non
Speculative agency, through which land was
secured to be paid for at reasonable rates on
long time. Then they came, and have gone
to work to cut down trees, build houses and
get ready for tilling the soil next spring
This plan could be pursued to advantage in
any of the twenty-three counties Of the State
