Basil Lockwood, a colored waiter, was
given a preliminary hearing in the Police
Court yesterday on a charge OF attempted
murder Mr.. Edward Flick, who keeps a
saloon and dining room on 10th street.was
present as the colored mans intended
victim. Monday night while at work
Lockwood seems to have given several
orders for whisky and soda on his own
responsibility, and then charged them to
customer The latter made known his OBJ
lection to the proprietor, and after he had
gone the colored waiter was questioned
He then demanded his money tS2), and
during the conversation called Mr.. Flick
Mr.. Flick told Judge Miller he would not
take that from any man, and in this par
ticular instance he resented it with a
blow
Following this there was a further dis
pute and the colored man got Mr.. Flick
on the floor and was about to use a large
carving knife on him when Mrs. Flick
came to her husbands rescue and saved
him.
Mrs. Flick was also in court as a wit
ness.
Judge Miller committed Lockwood in de-
fault of 5000 bali for the action of the
grand jury.

Injustice to the Armeninus.

Late advices from Constantinople report
recent trials of Armenians at Yoozgat
Paschalic of Sivas, Asia Minor, and say that
many of the prisoners were condemned
without being permitted to give evidence
In their own behalf. In one case, however
a prominent Armenian was convicted, al
though he proved that he was in prison
at the time his alleged offense was COM
mtted. There were many similar cases,
the trials being a complete farce. Armen-
ians are being swept into prison by the
wholesale, tortured, and money extorted
from them to crafty private spite. AT
Sivas twenty children We're imprisoned for
two months. their offense being the for
nation of a society to raise subscriptions
for the assistance of poorer children
Many Armenians have been thrown into
prison for having in their possession Bibles
ard other books that did not bear the
stamp of the censor

The action taken by a trolley company
in Chicago in ordering several postal cars
will be followed in other cities as soon as
the street car COMPANIES manifest a dis
position to cooperate with the depart
ment. In the Chicago case part of each
car Is to be reserved as a smoking COM
partment, and the company is taking the
step practically on it's own risk. as no
agreement as to compensation has yet
been made by the Chicago post office. Pos
tai officials hope to have the scheme in
operation In all the large cities of the
country within few years, but the street
companies. as a rule, have not shown a
disposition TO give material progress to
the movement. Boston is expected to be
one of the first cities where the scheme is
to be operated and in Brooklyn it is al
ready in vogue to some extent. The Post
ONCE Department expects to have gen.
eral extension of the movement so as to
include the principal cities but material
advance in this direction will not be ac-
oomplished for considerable length Of
time

Several Small Fires,

Three alarms of fire We're sounded last
night between 10 o'clock and midnight, but
not much damage was done. The first
alarm was for fire in the cigar store of E.
Hartshall, on 9th street, where the blaze
caused loss Of about $50. Then there was
a false alarm turned in. and about mid
night there was slight blaze under Wales
e Melons cigar store at 18th and F
streets, caused by hot ashes being empted
in a barrel. The slippery pavement caused
an accident to No = engine on Its way
home from the fire. and Engineer Robin
sons arm was painfully scalded by the
escaping steam. The Emergency Hospi. al
physicians dressed the Scalded arm. About
1920 o'clock the fire department was again
called out. This time the flames We're in
Louis Schmidts saloon, No. 100 I'd street.
The flames We're confined to the second
story, where the damage to the furniture
amounted to $500. The building was
damaged to the extent of $500.

MAY BE SOLD.
Property Left to Be Repaired and Not
Called For.

Mr.. S. T. Thomas. attorney for the Dis
trict today rendered an opinion to the
Commissioners with reference to the COM
munlcation of Mr.. G. A. Emme, gun and
locksmith, Of Cos 18th street southwest,
inqufring whether he has the right to sell
guns and locks which have been left at his
shop for repairs and not called for, which
was referred to him for his opinion.
Mr.. Thomas says that whenever a work.
man or artisan by his labor or skill in
creases the value of personal property
placed in his possession to be improved he
has a lien upon it for his proper charges I'M
til paid. Section Ill Of the Revised Statutes
or the United States relating to the Dis
trlct OF Columbia gives any person having
possession of the same, who shall make,
alter, repair or bestow any labor on any
OF the owner or lawful possessor thereof,
lien on such property so made. altered
or repaired, or upon which labor has been
bestowed, for his just and reasonable
charges for the labor he has performed
ana the materials he has furnished and
such person may hold and retain possess
sion OF the same until such costs and rea-
scnable charges shall be paid, &c
But, continues Mr.. Thomas, as the stat
ute does not confer power upon mechanics
and artisans to sell personal property on
Whlch they have performed services for
their charges after the owner has neglected

SIX months, the mechanic CT artisan NAV
sell such personal property after notice to
the owner and publication of the sale in

Hard names and bitter denunciations
created an exciting scene at a meeting OF
the board OF freehoders at San Francisco
the other afternoon. Mayor Adolphus
Sutro addressed the board, claiming the
setting aside of certain streets as boule-
wards was a part of the Southern Pacific's
plan to block the construction of his road
to the Cliff House. While he was speaking
Irving NJ. Scott, head of the Union Iron
Works, and chairman of the freeholders'
committee, which represented the case, en-
tered. Sutro denounced him. Scott re-
sporided that Sutro was really in league
with the Southern Pacific himself, although
ostersbly opposed.
You are hireling of the Southern Pa
cifc" shouted Sutro. anglily. Scott
shouted: You are q liar" to which the
mayor replied at the top of his voice: You
are a lying dog and a Southern Pacific
hireliag."
And you are a miserable fiunky your
SELF" shouted Scott, shaking his fist under
the nose of the mayor of San Francisco.
The men Sprang at each other. All was
wild confusion and the two elderly gentle
men were with difficulty kept apart After
long struggle they We're quoted and

MICHIGAN POPULISTS
Favor More Grecnbacks and Fewer
Bonds and Bank Notes.

Michigan populists held their state con-
vention at Greenville yesterday and nom
mated the first Of the candidates for SUI
preme court justices and regents of the
university, who are to be voted upon at
the spring election. R. B. Taylor of Bay
City, was nominated for justice of the
supreme court, and George H. Smith Of
Menzie and V. ]. Bower Of Macomb as
university regents.
Resolutions We're adopted commencing
the course OF President Debs ct al of the
A. r. u, urging workingnen to unite
with the populists' side. deprecating gov
eminent bond issues and the enlargement
of the privileges and powers of banking
corporations and condemning the alleged
attempts in Congress to outlaw silver.
The attitude of the administration upon
financial questions was denounced as SUBJ
versive Of free government. The resolu-
tions declare that no hope can be placed
by the people in either the democratic or
republican parties. AS remedy the reso-
buttons advocate unrestricted coinage Of
gold and silver and the issuance OF an ade-
quate volume of paper money without the
intervention of banks of issue, and prohib-
iting any further issue of bonds bank
paper.

Robbed the Congressman.

Isaiah Chapman, young colored man
who lives in South Washington, stood be-
fore Judge Miller today in the Police Court
on charge of having appropriated to his
own use S. bill, the property Of Congress
man Strauss of New York. Isaiah was in
the Capitol few days ago. as he pre-
ferred the warmth of the building to the
cold weather outside, and he made him.
self perfectly at home that the Con-
gresham thought he was one of the labor
ers employed there. Acting under this be-
lief, he gave to Isaiah the note to get
changed for him. Isaiah took the note,
and II he got it changed the Congressman
does not know it,
The New Yorker was very much sur
prised when he learned that he had been
defrauded in this way. and he determined
to get the thief and money If he had to
send to his home for some of Inspector
ByrneS detectives.
But this did not prove necessary, for a
precinct policeman caught Isaiah, but did
not recover the morey.
Judge Miller gave the prisoner three
months in Jail.

The Death Rate.

Notwithstanding the severe winter
weather for the last week, condition of
coed health prevailed throughout the Dis
trict AS shown by the returns Of mortal
ity to the health department. there was
one less death than in the previous report.
The death rate for the whole population
fell to as low a figure as 1896, as COM
pared with 20.43 for the corresponding
week of last year. There was slight in
crease in the number of fatal cases of
chronic affections, accompanied by a rela-
tive decrease in acute lung attacks. There
seem to be no malignant fevers prevalent,
and mortality among the aged over sixty
years and children under five years is at
a minimum and below the average. The
effort to limit and eradicate smallpox is
apparently proving successful. The total
deaths were IS, being violent; 60 We're
white and Is colored; II deaths resulted
from consun + ton.

MODERN BIBLICAL DISCOVERY
Bishop Hurst's Lecture on Recent Re-
searches and Advances,
He Thinks Science is Pushing Skep-
t1cism to the Wall-The Last
Forty Years.

The second in the series of Bible lectures
under the auspices of the American So
ciety of Religious Education was delivered
last evening by Bishop John F. Hurst in
Calvary NJ. E. Church. Despite the IN
clement weather there was a large audi
ence, completely filling the auditorium.
Rev. j. E. Rankin, D. D., vice president OF
the society, made some announcements,
after which Representative w. NJ. Springer
Of Illinois introduced the speaker of the
evening, referring pleasantly to the ex-
tended scholarship and travels Of the
bishop, who was an authority on the sub
ject to be presented.
On coming forward the bishop announced
as his theme, 1.-THE Bible and Modern Dis
covery," or, the Triumph of the Spade
and the Camera" as witnesses TO the
Scripture. He spoke for full hour, and
was heard with closest attention through
out. He showed that recent excavations
have done much to demonstrate the ac-
curacy of the Bible so far as 1t relates TO
history and geography. The ruins IN the
east pointed to the truth of the Bible The
bishop said that in the last forty years
matters of greater import had come to
light through resurrected tombs and tenn
ples from the sands and the mounds of
the east, than had been accomplished
within the preceding thousand years.
These great discoveries are wiping out,
said Bishop Hurst, apparent difficulties
existing.
The speaker reviewed some of the myths
and legends of which the writers of an
cient Greece and Rome had told, but which
We're disbelieved during the early part of
this century; yet Schlemann's discoveries
had revealed that the story of Troy in the
Illiad of Homer was true. Greek culture
was shown to be fact. These discoveries
We're being perpetuated by the camera and
the printing press. The bishop spoke at
length Of the magnificent results attend
ing the finding Of the rosetta stone, which
was the key that unlocked the monuments
of old Egypt. These have corroborated in
most remarkable Mariner the Bible mar
rative. Bishop Hurst spoke at length on
the subject of the monkish novel which
Mrs Lewis and Mrs. Gibson were reading
when they discerned that there was writ
ing underneath the manuscript which they
We're reading. This well-nigh obliterated
manuscript had been photograp hed by Prof
Harris and was proved to be part of the
gospels of the fourth century. The bishop
expected even greater results in the future
from Investigations than have been accom-
plished in the past. The skeptic, he said.
was being pushed inch by inch to the wall

ton. Under what is known as the VIM
