against Mr.. Constant Ponnet, charging
him with assault. MIR. Adam claims
he entered Mr.. Ponnet's saloon, near
the local depot, last night and called
for class of beer, and that when about
to drink it the proprietor's son, his
father and hired man assaulted him
and threw him into the street. The de.
PENDANT, however, and the hired man
deposed that the complainant was in
an intoxicated condition and that it
was unsafe to sell him any more stimu-
lants; that there was no assault; that
Mr.. Adam was merely assisted out of
the saloon, and that the fact that he
found himself sprawling on the pave
ment was due to his dismembered con-
dition. The two men had been to
Washington together during the early
part of the night. Mr.. Adam claims
be had had no previous trouble with
Mr.. Ponnet, but the latter says some
friction occurred while they were to-
gether in Washington. The Mayor

TIE PYTHIANs.-A large percentage
Of the Knights of Pythias who are visit.
ing Washington came here during the
past three days and inspected the va,
rious points of interest. Many of them
were soldiers during the war, and such
were especially entertained in survey
ing old landmarks and places familiar
to them q third of a century ago. Inc
Marshall House, where Col. Ellsworth
was killed; the Braddock House, which
was at that time military hospital, the
different buildings in the city formerly
used as barracks and the site of Price,
Birch & Co.'S old slave pen (the Bastlle
of war times) attracted numbers. Mt.
Vernon drew thousands, and through
out to-day rolling stock of the electric
railway has been taxed for all it IS
worth in transporting visitors to and
from the tomb of Washington. Besides
the local traffic on the road has been
very large, especially after dark: Thou
sands went from this city to Washing.
to see the parade, and the trains and
boats were packed. When they ar
rived here the street cars were immedI-
ately filled to overfowing with passen-
gers who lived on and near the line OF
the road.

these passengers were smoking and
brakeman ordered them to desist. rs
there were ladies in the car: this oder

by two children, demanded seats, IN

elected, or else he would not surrender
the three tickets held by him. The
conductor refused to provide seats and
threatened to eject the gentleman.

Washington some time ago, and
who recently got into trouble by
being guilty of disorderly conduct
and then undertaking to play the crazy
dodge, was, by order of the Mayor, sent
back to Washington this morning. Gov
ington had been a member of the chain
gang, and yesterday, without any cause
whatever, he made an assault on an
other colored member Of the force with
hoe. He had day or two ago signi-
fed his desire to remain on the gang,
saying he would rather be employed
than in taking his chances of gaining
sustenance in the streets. His time
was nearly out, and yesterdays act is
supposed to have been committed in
order that he could winter at the city's
expense.
