The meeting of the board of directors of
the Choral Society Wednesday night was
lar gely attended, and the work for the
Eeason was mapped out. The discussion
quite general, and the decision ar
rived at was harmonious. 1t was regretted
that the president, Mr.. VIM. H. Daniel,
was unable to attend, but the vice presi-
dent, DIR. Frank T. Howe, occupied the
chair. Mr.. D. G. Pfeiffer, chairman of the
finance committee. submitted several i'm
portant recommendations, all of which
were adopted. The program, has teen
stated in The Star. will include the Mes

These performances will be given in Con-

hall has promised that there shall be no
repetition of the unfortunate incident of
last year. There will be changes made in
the stage for the protection of the singers
against the cold. ard the heating appliances
will be rearranged so to make the hall
comfortable for the audience. 1t is a mat

a New Schedule for the 11th Street
Curs--The Belt Line Conditions.
A new schedule will go into effect on the
18th street line of the Belt line railroad
Monday morning. The time between ears
will be reduced to two and one-half minutes
between am. and pm, and after that
hour and until the cars cease running the
intervals will be three minutes. Star
reporter inquired of Superintendent Todd
this morning when the full operation of
the Belt line would begin.
I'VE would have commenced reoperating
the Belt under the system formerly in vogue
two weeks ago If it had not been for
very disappointing delay in getting the
necessary horses" said Mr.. Todd. Eve
had arranged with a dealer to supply US
with 100 first-class animals, and he had
agreed to deliver them, but at the last
moment he was unable to do so. Conse-
uuently we had to look elsewhere. We
have already secured and have at the
stables eighty of the horses needed under
the Forthcoming new condition of affairs
ard the other two carloads containing forty
are expected today.
you know it takes some little time for
horse to get fit for car pulling after 1t Is
shipped from a distant place" continued
Mr.. Todd THE horses have what is ger
orally termed shipping fever. which is re-
ally due to the change in food and climate
They have to become acclimated, as 1t
were. before they can stand the strain of
heavy work The new horses come mainly
from Maryland and Virginia, with q few
from the west. They are a fine lot of AMI
mails, too"
The temporary frame stable for which
the Commits soners issued building permit
some time ego is nearly completed, and
makes a considerable addition to the com
pany's conveniences at 18th and boundary
streets. 1t contains forty stalls and Will be
ready for occupancy early next week.

New York and Pittsburs figured in a
scrappy game yesterday. which the Goth
antics won after a hard fight in the ninth
inning, making three hits after Herman
went cut. The visitors tried to provoke
Umpire O'Day, who took it all good-na-

gan to use vile language O'19ay promptly
fined Mack 500 and ordered him from the
field: Mack refused to go. and remained
on the bench until escorted from the
grounds by two policemen. O'Day was
loudly cheered for his action. --
Frank De Hass Robson of the Cleveland
club saw the game at the Polo grounds
yesterday, and after he had seen O'Day
fine Mack 500, he said: "At the next meet
ing Of the League am going to introduce
a resolution to the effect that all fines in
fiicted upon players this year shall be re-
mitted. and I'll bet $500 that the league
will vote with me. The only way to stop
kicking is to remove the player from the
in vogue next year."

neral in the virgin wilds, except the

rolled over on the wild lawn and

When Carigan's mind cleared up
he begged, implored, pressed all
hands to say nothing about it, and
Judges Eakin and Williams promised
! if he could induce Gen, Royston to
let up, to be silent; but the general
was obdurate, wanted to open up
old scores and would not promise.
The outing came to an end in
eight or ten days, and all started
home-Gen. Royston and Carigan
in the same conveyance. After
they had proceeded several miles,
Roysion complained of the insects
which had fastened themselves all
over his body from the crown of his
head to the soles of his feet, and
proposed near a turn in the road
to stop until he stripped cap pie
even to his hose and shoes, so he
could get rid of the insects, large
and small which were tormenting
him. The carriage stopped, he dis
mounted and weighed two and one
half net The woods had been
burnt off, leaving the underground
with only its outer branches burned
off, and it was three hundred yards
to forest tree large enough to
hide oue-half of the generals
rotund person, a contingency he
had neither shought of nor provid.
ed for, AS soon as he became en-
crossed in the business in hand,
Carigan drove up few PAGES, and
with a clear, pleasing voice greeted
pCNSldl WClIhuOWu ldulCS Will ~
hearty salutation, and asked if they
were going to the springs, and in.
formed them that he and Gen. Roy
ston were just returning from a
pleasant sojourn there.
The general was always a modest
and gallant gentleman in the pres
ence of ladies. He was horrifed,
picked up his clothes, and started
west through the burnt woods like
a fat quarter horse, when his wind
failed him, squatted behind pine
tree, which only protected a part of
his pereon. STOPPING low he peeped
out toward the road and carriage
for ten minutes, saw no one but
Carigan; then he realized that he
had been badly sold, that Carrigan
had not seen any ladies,
His baywindow was badly torn up,
blood was there. Slowly he came
back, picking up garment here
and there his body bloody and
black, When he got to the car
riage he told Carrigan that it was
beastly and shameful to treat an
old man that way, and that he
must fight, regardless of conse-
quences. BY this time Judges
Eakin and Williams drove up and
patched up a truce, the terms of
which were, they were to regard
jokes as even for six months; but
the little village OF Washington
soon had it all, and to this day the
ancient, "Athens Of the State" has

John Hallums DIARY of an Old
Lawyer.
In the good old days of Arkansas,
when whisky was pure and cheap
everybody had plenty of money
members Of the bar sometimes "un-
bent the bow and took John Bar
leyCorn into their confidence. Rob
ert Carigan and Gen, Grandson D.
Royston, eminent lawyers living at
Washington, in the grand old coun-
ty of Hampstead, never let up when
they could get good joke on
friend,
Hon. John r. Eakin, one of the
ablest and most scholarly iurists
who ever adorned the Supreme
bench of Arkansas, and Judge A. B.
Williams, another very able lawyer
and jurist, lived in the same town.
Gen Royston weighed two and
half hundred, He came from Car
ter county, Tenn, in 1882 was
president of one Of the constitution
al conventions, often in her legisla-
tive councils, and prominent fac
tor in the history of the state, as
well as Judge Eakin, who came
from ShelbyyilIe, Tenn,
All of them were eminent in the
history of the state, Gen Royston
had an eye to business and grew
wealthy His domain included Roys-
ton Springs, in Pike county, where
this quartet Of brothers often re-
paired, like Highland chiefs, to re.
create and enthuse the inner man.
Carigan was a noted criminal law
yer and had client living near
the Springs, who was always brew
eted on the criminal register of the
court of promotion to honors lie did
not much like and for ample cash
fees Carigan saved him often--in
fact, these oft-repeated acquittals
got to be monotonous with the peo
pie of Pike, and to save any further
trouble or expense to the state,
they swung the fat client to a pine
tree, there being no sour apple
tree in the vicinity OF the Springs,
A barbecued pig, roast turkey,
boiled ham, and all that the culi-
nary art and good larders could
provide, negroes, teams and car
riages, with the best and strongest
of Burgundy and the Rhine vintage
was provided by these gentlemen
for an outing at the Springs, and
to the favorite resort they repair
ed,
Kings may be blessed, but they we're
victorious;
Der a the the ills Of life victorious.
Carigan wanted to see, must see
the tree from which his client de-
parted this life for the good of the
commonwealth, and all had to go
with him to the hangmans tree,
He was mellow, and grew eloquent
and indignant by turns, He pro-
nounced a panegyrlc over the lost,
then poured out vials of wrath on
the wretches who FASTENED his de.
parture to the spirit world then he
became pathetic, and all stood with !
heads uncovered for some time, the
tobacco juice unconsciously creep
ing down the furrowed rivulets of
mouth But he could
not hold in or bear up long, and all
