USED IN SECURING voTEs-TAX RECEIPTS
 NOT GOOD.
 INDIANA, Pa., Jan. 23.-Today's pro- ceedings in the Blair White election con test were enliyened by testimony to degree more sensational than that heretofore given. A number of witnesses testified to the usual offer made on election day that ii they would vote for White they could have a day's pay. Others testified to being of- fered money and whisky for their votes for White, and dog ,ns who voted at the eiec- ton confessed that their tax receipts were imperfect.
 The sensation of the morning came with the evidence of Walter Myers of Cherry hill, who said that when in town on Sat urday preceding the election Judge White promised him S5 for his vote. The judge told Myers to go to Watt, cashier of the Deposit banx, aud get the money. Watt gave Myers four silver dollars. Judge White is principal owner of the Deposit bank. t
 Myers said he would not have voted for White if he had not come down with the money. Wit Niewouger overheard the con- versation and corroborated Myers. O. her witnesses stated they had received tenders of money in various sums for their votes for White, but had declined.

Powell Wn. A..nnlted.

Joseph Powell, plumber, who enjoys a
drink Of liquor as much as any victim Of
King Alcohol, was a regular visitor at the
Police Court for several years, but during
the past year or more he has SO conducted
himself that the police have had but little
trouble with him, except to arrest persons
for assaulting him. Freddy" O'Day, the
special policeman, assaulted him and seri-
ously injured him several months ago, and
Saturday afternoon several colored men
followed the example The trouble started
in Carley's saloon, Goth and L streets, and
ended on the sidewalk. Powell was struck
on the back of the head with brick, and
so seriously injured that the police found
1t necessary to send him to the Emergency
Hospital for treatment. Following this
trouble one of the colored men in the party
took a knife from his pocket and wanted
another of the men to use it. Charles
Owen started the fight and used the brick.
He claimed that he had worked for Powell,
and that the latter owed him so cents. 1t
was when he asked Powell for the money
that the trouble started.
II had seen him spend money in saloons"
said Owen to Judge Miller this morning,
land thought he ought to pay me-"
Elijah Chapman, his companion, who had
also taken part in the fight, was tried with
him. Owen was given six months in Jail,
and Chapman was fined $25 or sixty days.
They were also fined s. each for disorderly
conduct.

No one unacquainted with the handling
of large French plate glass can possibly
realize the nervous strain and danger in
cdent thereto. Should one of the handlers
falter or lose his nerve an instant, the

or four OF them seriously or fatally-not
counting the loss of a 500 plate. The

Will Stand Trial.

One day this week a Police Court jury
will have to hear a case involving charges
of assault and keeping a bawdy house
against a woman known in the division
as Ida Drury. Lola Worthington, resi-
dent of the same vicinity, is the Individual
who caused the arrest 1t appears that
these houses are permitted to exist in vio-
lation of law until there is reason for COM
plant and then the police are awakened
to a sense of duty and make a raid. Such
was the case with this woman. 1t appears
that Ida had been drinking and when she
called at another alleged disreputable
house and heard Lola Worthington sneeze
she imagined the sneeze was intended as
an insult to her and she resented 1t by
slapping the young woman's face. Lola re-
sented the assault and now Ida has pair
of black eyes and a bruised face. Seven
girls, alleged inmates of her house, were
in court today as witnesses, but as jury
trials were demanded the case went over.

To the Editor CT The Evening Star:
In Friday evenings issue of your valua-
BILE paper noticed that L gentleman gave
an unfavorable criticism of the wonan's
rights movement, giving as a reason for
his disapproval his experience Of the tu-
multuous scenes in the congress Of the
Daughters of the Revolution. This is 1.-THE
land of the Free and the gentleman has
a perfect right to his opinion, but would
like information In answer to one or two
questions. Did the gentleman observe any
elderly lady, with gray hair and flushed
face. making frantic lunges at another
ladies held on to the first TO keep her from
doing bodily harm to the second? Does the
description remind anybody of anything Of
recent occurrence among the sons Of our
republic? The gentleman says the dangh-
tiers paid no attention to the gavel. Has he
ever read of a mace being carried down a
congressional aisle and producing about as
much effect as jumping jack would have
done? Men never get excited In debate;
they never let their angry passions rise"
With them as models of conduct in legis-
lative halls, women cannot go far from
right; and only give US a chance, perhaps
we could learn to be as patient, as for
bearing, as tolerant and as calm as men
are. 1 repeat, only give us chance and
who knows but that we may not only be
able to "act as pretty as men do, but
even to improve on the model?

Hyde's comedians, playing at Kernan's
Theater last week. proved to be an attrac-
ton great enough to induce Peter H. Moore
of No. 4S Grant street. Anacostia, to leave
his home Saturday and attend the show
Before leaving his home he put $3.50 In his
pocket. and now he is just that much
poorer that he was before he enjoyed the
laughable comedy. While at the theater'
he saws. he had occasion to take the money
from his pocket to get bill changed, and
he supposed that some thief who saw the
money exposed watched him and picked
his pocket. When he discovered his loss,
Mr.. Moore and friends made a thorougn
search of the theater, but nothing in the
shape of bills was found, except the thea
ter programs. Later the police were in
formed of the loss of the money, and they
are now endeavoring to locate the ther
and recover 1t.

TRIBUTES TO DOUGLASS.
What His Death Accomplished for His
Pe0pIe.

fe0pIe.
Rev. s. Geriah Lamkinsp at Salem Bap-
fist Church yesterday, preached an elo-
quent sermon on the life. of Frederick
Douglass. taking as his = text. Hebrews,
ri %: by faith Joseph, when he died, made
mention of the departing of the children of
Israel and gave commandment concerning
his bones" He dweat especially on what
Mr.. Douglass deathehad accomplished for
his race. Among other things Mr.. Lam
kins said: I'VE had hoped that the re-
mains Of Frederick Douglass would have
been buried here at,Ithe national capital
under the shadow ofsthe dorae, within sight
of the Goddess OF Liberty, but ere his
death, like Joseph of old, he gave COM
mandmsnt concerning his bones; It wa. was
his wish to be buried in the land OF free
dom, of equality before the law, where
man is not judged by the color of his skin,
but by his manhood and by his merit. The
honor, done to his remains by distinguished
citizens of Rochester justify the wisdom OF
his choice.
New York in honoring Douglass honored
herself. So did the nation; so did the world.
He was listened to in his lifetime as no
other negro was. His death has touched
the American conscience as the death OF
no other negro could. He has made the
road smoother and easier for those who are
to follow him, and when the illustrious
dead of all nations shall stand in the pres
ence Of God and the roll of earth's great
men shall have been called, prominent
among them will be the name of Fred
erick Douglass

ris, Rev. L. c. Moore and w. e. Reed.
At Mount Olive Sunday school lyceum
last evening an able address was delivered
by Mr.. George Murray, in which he paid a
glowing tribute to Douglass. Rev. B. NJ.
Brown also spoke of the value Of Mr..
Douglass. services to his people
T. J. Edmondson. president of the ly-
ceum, brought forward the suggestion that
the colored people should buy the Douglass
homestead on ,Anacostia Heights and open
there national park. making the house a
national museum They should also erect
monument to Mr.. Douglass. These sug-
gestions were received with applause by
the large audience present.

An Accident.

Yesterday morning about o'clock Po-
liceman John Brennan of the sixth precinct
met with a painful accident near 9Th and
F streets. He stepped in an open coal
shute in the sidewalk, and so painfully in
jured his foot and leg that he had to be
carried home in the patrol wagon. Several
similar accidents have happened lately. In
some instances the tops were left off the
openings to the coal vaults, and in others
they had been put on so carelesSly that
they turned without much effort on the
part of the victim.

The Proposed Belt Line Changes.

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
Referring to the proposed change Of
route on the Belt line of street cars. men,
toned in The STAR allow me to sug-
gest that, in my opinion, the abol-
ton of the ''round-trip'' privilege, COM
planned of by the company, will prove to
be an expensive experiment to the COM
pany, for l think it safe to assert that at
least three-fourths of its receipts from G
to 10 o'clock pm. during the heated. term
have been from round-trip patrons residing
on or adjacent to that line, seeking some
little relief from the oppressive heat dur
ing those hours.
No doubt the privilege has been abused
by some. but 1 believe that to be the ex-
ception and not the rule-as seems to be
intimated in the article referred to- Be-
sides. many persons;who have been using
this line in going to and from their bust
ness down town without change of cars,
should they now be, compelled to trans
fer, will patronize the more rapid
transit" Of It'll or 9th streets, as the case
may be. PATRON.
