Her Musical Attire.

VES When the British bluejackets landed
after the bombardment of the palace at
Zanzibar, the wife of the late sultan
discovered, to her annoyance, that she
had lost her veil in her excitement. 1t
would never do to face the infidel with
out veil The agitated sultana did not
hesitate, and when the bluejaokets
found her she was discreetly dressed in
a musical box, which was the only tot
let she could find

Chauncey Dcpc's's Admirers Discover
New Isistiucfion of His.
Chaunccy Depew has attained new
distinction. II has been discovered that
in certain of his platform attitudes ne
bears striking facial resemblance TO
the Grand Old Man q England. The
resemblance was noted particularly by
the audience that listened to his speech
at the Lcnox Lycoum in New York re-
Gently. Mr. Depcw stood at little
desk on the stage, high above the seated
audience.
"How much he looks like Gladstone"
was the whispered commept made by
scores who sat near the edge OF the plat
form and were looking mp at him as
they caught q thrce-quarter view of the
earnest face OF the orator. ' rEf
The resemblance was so remarkable,
in fact tina. it could not have escaped
attention. Mr. Dcpew wore high
standing collar, and the onlookers could
trace the Englisbman' counterfeit pre-
sentiment in the contour of the forehead,
the similarity in the shape of the nose,
and particularly in the firm shape of
the mouth and chin. The resemblance
was further startlinGly emphasized by
the style in which the orators gray side
whiskers were trimmed. He looked ex-
actly like the portraits of Gladstone that
are best known in America, represent
ing him at the time he was leading the
battle for concession of home rule to
Ireland some years ago. All tho report
ers at this particular meeting were i'm
pressed by the incident. New York

A Murderer at Seven.

jeff Thompson, aged z, will have to
go ON record as the youngest murderer
in Louisiana. Thompson lived with his
parents in the Fourth ward OF Iberville
parish, short distance from Plaque
mine. He had childish quarrel with n
girl playmate named Lily Coleman. An
older boy gave him penknife, and JEFF
stabbed the little girl repeatedly, the
wounds resulting in her death last night
The authorities do not know what to do
with the child.

Charles II. CrIsp.

The suggestion that Charles r. Crisp
be elected to fill his fathers unexpired
term in congress is one which we hope
to see carried out. Mr.. Crisp is young,
but he is possessed of unusual ability
and has been close student of con-
gressional legislation. 1t would be a
graceful act on the part of the Third
district Democracy ID give him a unani-
nous nomination AID an overwhelming
election for the urIexpired term. At

Babies In Arms Attacked by an Eagle.

The other afternoon, while Mrs. r.
Corrother and Mrs A. Stewart were
walking with two little babies near st.
Joseph river, three miles from Benton
Harbor, Mich, they were attacked by
an enormous bald eagle. The bird was
evidently in search of prey, and when
il saw the infants decided to seize one.
The women were attracted by the noise
of the wings and saw the bird when it
was within few feet of them. Getting
near each other, the women yelled and
threw clods Of earth and clubs at him.
Thus discouraged, he retreated. flying
the while in circles and making darts
repeatedly at them. The women con-
tinued their yelling and throwing till
the bird finally scared away.

Law Violated in the District.

There Is an excellent opportunity to test
the law, barely, a week old. W whicb makes
prize fighting in the District of Columbia
a felony aud imposes scTere penalties upon
principals, seconds ard everybody present
or in any wa concerned in il. The law was
passed with a rush to stop n glove fight a
thousand miles from the capital, which
proved but tame affair; but 1t has been
violated right uIdcr the shadow of the
Capitol by men WHO fought desperately
with bare fists and whose encounter was
savage and bloody. Moreover. the affair
was not SO secret but that 4 hundred or
more persons witnessed it. Worst of all.
the slugging match took place on the Lords
Day. and thus those that engaged in and
witnessed it broke both divine and human
law.
The police knew nothing of it, although -
the detective bureau espcciaily-ttey are
generally thought to Keep themselves posted
as to the movements about town o! men
who are patrons OF such brutal exhtbi-
tions as prize fights, dog fights and cock
fights. It remains now to be seen what

Even Congress will have some difficulty
In devising an efficacious remedy against
the dumping OF paupers and lunatics from
Virginia and Maryland in the District.
Nevertheless there can be no harm in max
ing the effort, because the evil has as
sumcd unusually large proportions. 1t is
probably the experience of every State
that now and then one of these classes OF
unfortunates strays across the tordcrs OF
an adjacent State and has to Re cared for,
but no such regular transfers are practiced
anywhere as are continually made from
the near counties of our two neigbbor
States to our domain.
This trouble is not of recent origin. 1t
has plagued us more or less always, and
especially within the last twent y or twenty
five years. The municipal authorities have
tried In vain to check it. 1t probably never
will be stopped altogether, buttbe nuisance
can perhaps be diminished by the right sort
of legislation. At any rate, 1t is n Prob
lem with which Congress, in Justice to
the taxpayers of the District, should grap-
pie with the least possible delay. 1t is
imposing a burden upon them which. with
theutmost strctchingofcharity,t they should
not be called upon to carry.

THEIR SHIP WENT DOWN.
But the Captain. His Wife and the
Crew Were Saved.

hut the Captain, His Wife and the
Crew Were Saved.
New York, Feb. 24.-The Mallory line
steamer Lampasas, Capt. Burrows, which
arrived here this morning from Galveston.
brought in Capt. s r. Gardiner. Mrs. Gar
diner, Mate d. B. Campbell, Cook ]. Lui-
rose and four seamen OF the schooner Her
man B. Ogden, who were picked up from
two small boats on Saturday morning off
Cape Lookout.
Can't Gardiner reports that he sailed from
Lambert'sPoint on February 20 for Charles
ton, s. c., with $50 tons of coal. On the
following day strong northeast winds were
encountered. which increased to hur-
ricanc. and the schooner was run under bare
poles for five or six hours. On the 22d
the weather moderated somewhat, and
Cane Lookout was made at p. M, when
the vessel struck a shoai. The wind vcered
to north northwest, and making sail, an
effort was made to get the vessel clear.
At a. m. she was free, and the pumps
on being sounded, II was found that there
were eleven feet of water in the hold, and
the vessel began to settle by the head.
Soundings were made which showed that
the schooner was in sixteen fathons or
water. At n. m. two boats were low
cred and the vessel was abandoned.
The boats were kept by the schooner
until 1t was feared that she would go down
and swamp them, when they were hauled
away. The Ogden's forward deck was then
under water. At 6 O'Clock in the morn
ing a mast was rigged UP on each boat
and sail made, when the steamer Lampasas
was sighted.

Good Drinking Water.

advanced by DIR. Drown is the presentation
of few plain facts relating to the city
OF Lawrence. Mass. UP to September, 1893.
that city had the highest Typhoid rate
Of all the cities in the State. The average
number of deaths from typhoid fever for
many years from October to May had been
forty-three. After the sand filter had been
introduced that number gradually decreased
until last year there were only six deaths
from the cause named, giving rate OF
LIZ per 10000 Inhabitants for 1895, as
against IL prior to 1898. While It is true
that the water of the Potomac is not
polluted in the degree that many other cities
are. because the river does not flow past
large towns. yet 1t would be made Infinitely
better by filtration, and 1t Is quite Ger
of drinking and washin in mud a number
Of months every year.
As was shown in the reports OF Capt
Gaillard and Col. Elliot the cost OF a
sand filter for Washington would be less
than n million dollars. a comparatively
small expense for the great advantages
gained. Our hoard OF trade. the District
Commissioners and citizens gen orally can
do nothing better than urge Con gress TO
make provision for SO desirable an inn
provement.
The evening times., 1896-02-24

Instead OF pa ying attention to the various
attempts OF President woodward. and the
ring to secure bond issue to carry out the
street extension scheme. the Board Of
Trade should lend Its influence TO promote
Improvements to benefit the general public.
Washington needs purer water and more of
1t; cheaper and better gas. both for public
and private consumption; more adequate
facilities to educate the many children now
roaming at large; better fire protection;
a memorial bridge connecting the city with
Arlington; an abolition OF the grade-cross-
ing nuisance: larger appropriations to inn
prove our public parks; the blotting out of
the Division disgrace; cheaper car fares and
a system of general ransfersihroughout the
District. and change in the law regulating
the number and appointment OF our Board
of Commissioners. This latter reform is
especially needed. ami is a subject which
The Times will take up later.
The question of cheaper street car fare
is enc that demands public attent ion. Since
the adoption of rapid transit by street car
companies. the expense of operating lines
has materially decreased, and while the
conveDicnces afforded have also greatly
added to their revenues, no correspond
ing reduction has been made in fares.
Those best Informed are firmly con-
