1T Is A PUBLIC THOROUGHFARE.
Attorney Thomas Opinion as to the
Status of Central Avenue

Attorney Thomas Opinion as to the
status of Central Avenue.
The assistant attorney for the District
has rendered an important opinion rela-
tive to whether Central avenue from 4th
street to Brookland Is a public thorough
fare.
Mr.. Thomas says:
II have carefully examined this matter
The history of Central avenue dates as far
back as 1856. 1t was laid out and dedicated
to the District as a public highway by
Thomas w. Berry and John A. Middleton,
trustees, in the chancery suit of John A.
Middleton ct al. VS.. Eliza T. Berry ct al.
Equity cause No. 500. Supreme Court of the
District of Colurnbia), the same being a bill
for partition, by sale, Of a tract of 315 acres
of land belonging to the estate of Washing
ton Berry, deceased. In the course of the
proceedings in that cause the trustees rec
commended a sale OF the property by sub
division, and the court authorized a subdi-
vision. The trustees made a subdivision
ana reported the same to the court, with a
plat showing Central avenue as a highway,
ana the same was approved and ordered re-
corded, and was thereafter recorded in the
surveyors office OF this District in Llper
Gov shepherd. folio IL, showing Central
avenue to be 80 feet wide. Aside from this
IL appears from the report or Mr. Beale
that Central avenue was improved by the
late board of public works from Lincoln
avenue TO the Washington branch OF the
Baltimore and OHIO railroad; that the Dis
trict has from time to time kept IL in repair
and constructed culverts over water courses
which cross II, and that II has always been
considered public road between the two
points named.
The law section 246. Revised Statutes of
the United States, relating to the District
or Columbia) in regard to roads declares
that all public roads within said District
and outside the limits of Washington and
Georgetown which have been laid out and
duly recorded as such are public highways"
For these reasons l am clearly OF opinion
that Central avenue between 4th street
east extended and the Washington brar CHI
OF the Baltimore and Ohio railroad, or in
other words, so far as 1t was laid out
through Washington Berry's land, is a pub
lie thoroughfare
lnasmuch as L understand my opinion is
desired in this case with view to LAYING
a water main in Central avenue and that
the proposed main. IL laid, will pass be-
tween the two cemeteries, Glenwood and
Prospect HILL will add that it is doubtful
whether assessments to defray the cost of
laying the proposed main can be levied
against so much of the lands Of those two
cemeteries as has been appropriated or sold
on for burial purposes"

A Disgrace to Journalism.-On several
occasions during the past year we have
made mention of the critter down the street
whom journalistic decency compels us to
refer to as our esteemed contemporary. He
can neither write, shoot, play poker, nor
ride a bucklng bronco. On Wednesday af-
ternoon last We met the critter at the post
office, and had some words with him. He
at once challenged US to fight a duel, and
the affair came off in the rear Of the engine
house at o'clock. We arrived on the
ground without weapons, while he had a
navy revolver and twenty spare cartridges.
We allowed him to name the distance, ten
PAGES, and We then took our station thirty
feet away, back to him. and requested him
to blaze away until he got tired. He
promptly responded. We stood with our
hands under our coat tails and our face to
bill board with circus pictures on 1t. The
critter shot and yelled and whooped and
shot, and nobody interfered with him till
his last bullet was gone. Then some of the
boys who objected to the noise hauled him
off and steered him in the direction of his
carpet rag foundry, and the duel was de-
ciared over. The best shot he made didn' t
come within a foot of US. and most OF
them We're five or six feet wide of the tar

In the name of western Journalism we
protest against this man ontinuing to call
himself an editor, and ride about the coun-
try on free passes. The idea of a REPTILE
who can't do better shooting than that
coming into this territory to publish a paper
and seeking to mold public opinion is a
positive insult even to the coyotes and lack
ass rabbits. His case should be brought be-
fore the next meeting of the Press Associa-
ton for action, and unless we are greatly
mistaken in the makeup of that BODY.
there will be resolution adopted outlawing

and civilization.

Explosion of a Magazine.
About 5 in the afternoon of October 25
the Aquidaban began moving toward the
entrance to the harbor, and when in posi-
ton began firing on Santa Cruz and LACE
In about half an hour the firing became
lively, and the effect Of the discharges very
fine as it grew darker. Suddenly, while
the fighting was going on,a violent, deafen-
irg explosion was heard. Looking in it's
direction could be seen a beautifully grand
sight A heavy column of smoke was shot
high in the air, through the base Of which
and close to the water was a mighty flame
long and high. 1t was then dark enough to
heishten the effect. When the smoke had
risen and the flame nearly died out, was to
be seen the ruins of building used by
Mello as a powder magazine over on one
OF the Islands on the Nictheroy side.
1t will be remembered. the announcement
OF this catastrophe at the time, and the I'M
fortunate killing of several foreign officers
and men who were near.

ton of the sinking of the monitor Javary,

report. however, still lacks confirmation.

fifteen years than when he was hero in
Washington and his hair was grizzly gray
and his long beard was several kinds Of
yellow. He was called a singed cat and
his looks certainly stopped a long way
short of keeping company with the mans
natural ability. You could hardly get him
to talk that night. He spoke always in
hard, husky monosyllables and was disin-
clined TO say q word about himself or his
defeat. But he laid everything to Price

who had voted against him and remark ed
that he would be on the turf good while
yet,and somebody else might have a chance

a used-up man, that he would go back to
his farm up in bleak. barren Vernon county
