excitement, and. for the time at least
was bereft af all reason. DIR. Hollister,
who was called, pronounced it case OF
over-indulgence in alcohol. The woman
had evidently seen better days, and
had been fitted for a better life than
the one to which she had sunk.
After some medicine from the doctor,
she WAS taken to the city Jail, where she
made an interesting night for the iailer
and prisoners. This morning, as she
felt better, her freedom was given her.

the river. One of the reasons assigned
| is that there is an unusual amount of
| alkali in the river, waahings from the
deposits along the shore, which were
left by the high water OF last season.
It ie the first season the fishermen have
tailed so badly, and they ara not used to

Mrs. Julia Obarr, proprietress of the

The complaint, after setting forth alle-
cations of the city's incorporation, and
the like, goes on to say that during the
late smallpox quarantine the city au-
thorities appropriated her hotel, and all
that it contained. The articles which
were destroyed on this account were
one white blanket, one quilt, eight
towels, forty five chickens, fifty feet of
garden hose, one ladder, five lard buck
cts, one watch chain, groceries and cord
wood, all to the value of $76. Besides
this, she was ont rent and electric
lights. The whole bill thus itemized
comes to $154. Mrs. Obarr claims that
in addition her business was damaged in
the extent of $1,000, for which sum she
prays judgment against the city. J. G.

CLUBS AND LICENSES.
Attorney Thomas on the Recent Legal
Decision.

The attorney for the District, g. T.
Thomas has examined a letter of Mr..
James l.. Ewin of the Anti-Saloon League
to the Commissioners. under date of the
nth instant, protesting against the decision
of Judge Miller of the Police Court in the
case of the District against the Capital
Press Club for selling liquor without q
license which was referred to him for
opinion.
The question before the Police Court In
the case of tho Capital Press Club. says
Mr. Thomas. was whether duly incorporat-
ed clubs are required to take out liquor
licenses IL they dispense liquors. Section
of the act of March 3. 1883, regulating the
sale of intoxicating liquors in this District,
declares that no person shall sell, offer for
sale or traffic In, barter or exchange for
goods in the District of Columbia any in
toXicating liquors, etc. 1t Is debatable
question. according to the attorney. wheth-
err clubs incorporated in good faith for So
ciai and literary purposes. who dispense
liquors to themselves and invited guests,
can be said to be trafficking in liquors. To
traffic in an article Is to make 1t the SUBJ
ject OF commercial exchange; to exchange
goods. wares of merchandise between in
dividuals. communities and countries. 1t IS
contepded that clubs do not traffic in
liquors.. Whether they do or not Is quite
"a nice question. from which much can be
said uDon both sides.
II Judge AIiller's decision Is correct, and
Attorney Thomas states that he Is not
prepared TO say that 1t Is or Is not. IL will
ka nece Ssary to have the law amended in
order to require Incorporated clubs to take
1T HGuOr licenses.

THE BLAINE HOUSE SITE
A Proposition From the Government to
Buy the Land
What Senator Gray Says Who In
tF0duced the Amendment to the
Sundry Civil Bill.

Senator Gray today introduced an amend
ment to the sundry civil appropriation bill
directing the Secretary Of the Treasury to
buy the lot formerly occupied by the house
owned by the late James G. Blaine on La
fayette Square. The property Is described
in the amendment as lot and part Of lot
8, in square 221. This Is the property that
has recently been leased by a Chicago
theatrical firm as site for new theater
building, and the old Blaine house is even
now being torn down, in preparation for
the erection OF the theater structure.
Senator Gray said this afternoon to
Star reporter that this amendment is for
the purpose of acquiring for the United
States the title to this lot. which is part
of the corner owned by the government.
1T Is perfectly obvious" he said, that
the government will have to have this
property sooner or later, the land adj
joining the Department of Justice, known
as the freedman's bureau lot. Is now
thought of quite seriously as the site for
public building.
1T would be absurd. at any rate, for the
government to allow a f1imsy structure like
a theater building of highly inflammable
character to be located so near a great
public edif1ce like the Department of JUS
tice Especially would this be inappropri-
ate and dangerous If this corner WIS ever
to be built upon by the government"
1T Is certainly good business for the
u Duy tfiS duultlOHdl property
now, which constitutes a small corner of
the rectangle, before it has been improved
by the lease holders. l hope that the
amendment will be passed. 1 certainly in
tend to urge 1t myself"
Should this amendment be adopted, there
would be absolutely no way for the theater
company to continue operations, as the
amendment is mandatory upon the Secre-
tary to secure the property and gives him
authority to acquire possession by the con-
domination process set forth in the law
providing for the purchase of the new
post office site.
No sum is mentioned in the amendment,
which merely appropriates "a sufficient
amount to carry into effect the provisions
of this paragraph The amendment was
referred to the committee on appropria-
