The New York Racing Law in the Dis
trict.
To the Editor Of The Evening Star:
Permit me to inform the people of Wash
ington that bill has already been ap-
proved by the District Commissioners and
both committees Of Congress on the Dis
trict, which is in effect the New York rae
ing law, Of which The Star said about two
weeks ago, after a full description Of the
trick: IAN sporting men know that the
system in New York Is as much gambling
as the open booking of bets and ii
shows in the eyes of the law guardians
what difference there is in bookmal<ing
between tweedledum and tweedledee."
Anthony Comstock and the New York anti
gambling amendment committee have writ
ten the reform bureau urging that this oil
should be killed. AS Monday Is District
day in the House. and this bill Is ready for
final vote, opponents of gambling will need
to protest swiftly and strongly. In place of
this bill the new Gillett bill, introduced yes
terday, to prohibit interstate gambling by
telegraph. should be asked for to prevent
the notification of virginia's new law, to
Washington's great injury, across the river.

Work Of the Choir.


The Lutheran churches probably pay
more attention to the celebration of Easter
than any other Protestant denomination.
unless 1t be the Episcopal, and while their
ch0irs are not so elaborate or high-priced
as those OF some other denominations,
good music is rendered. OF the churches of
this denomination the Church of the
Reformation. on Capitol Hill. probably has
the best music
One thing should be remembered. partic-
ularly in regard to the Catholic churches,
and that is. during the whole of Lent the
chcirs have been required to do more than
ordinary work. besides pract:cing for the
elaborate programs that have to be rem
dered at Easter. Nearly every Sunday
there has been some selection from Ros-
sini's "Stabat Mater" one of the most
beautiful compositions of sacred music and
filled with melod.ouS numbers. The duet
Cues Est Homo" the tenor solo "Cujas
Amman" the bass solo PRO Peccatis" and
the "Infiammatus,' with its splendid So
prano solo and grand chorus are all well
time by one or more of the cho.rs During
Holy Week there will be an additional tax
upon the choirs in the chanting of the ten
ebre and the special services that are
held on Good Friday.
Last year the most elaborate music was
at st. Matthews. when the Seven Last
Words" were given by the best soloists in
the city, large chorus and an organ and
that similar service will be rendered at
one or more of the Catholic churches the
coming Good Friday.
The life of a choir singer is not an easy
one under any circumstances, for attend
ance al two services Is expected regularly
every Sunday no matter what the weather
may be- and If absence is necessary a sub
stitute must be provided. One rehearsal a
week at least Is required, and when prepa-
ration for special occasion is being made
the number is increased. Then there are
many calls for service at church entertain
ments, &C.. and, take it all in all, 1t may
be concluded that choir singer, man or
woman. fully earns the salary. no matter

THEIR GOLDEN WEDDTNG.

Bridgeport, June 17.-Fifty years ago to-day, June II, 1S46, were united in marriage in Holbeach. Lincolnshire, England, in the City church, Charles Nicholson and Anna Heade.

THE COMMITTEE APPROVES.

In reference to the feasibility of con- structing a lake where the marshes now are at the base of East Rock the chamber of commerce special commit tee appointed on the subject and con- sisting of Eli Whitney, John Cran1nton and A. B. Hill have visited the scene of the proposed improvement. The com mittee will work in harmony with the park commissioners. One of the points which the committee has investigated is the cost of removing such portions of the marsh as will be necessary to deepen the bed of the proposed lakes. It was found that by the improved method of pumping the mud through a pipe it could be removed and forced to the higher land at cost of twelve cents a cubic yard. This, it is said, will place the cost of the proposed improvement on a very reasonable basis and consid- erable less than the committee expect ed at first.
 One of the suggestions favored by the committee is the planting of shrub bery on the little island in the center of Mill river after it has been enlarged and graded. The committee will have another meeting and report to the chamber at it's next meeting. They will favor the proposition unless something unexpected intervenes.

PRESIDENT wlcKorF IMPROVING.
semple. His Assuilant, Had Been in Money
 Difficulties.


 New York, June l7.-Thc condition of President George II. Wyckoft of the Bank of New Amsterdam, who was shot and dangerously wounded by the crank, George II, Semple, was much improved this morning, Mr. Wyckor's temperature was high last night, but toward morning 1t dropped back to la most normal The patient was able to- .day to take uourlshmcnt He is still lat the New York hospital.
 Arrangements for the removal of the body of Mir, Wyckor's assaiant from the hospital were made this morning by his widow, who yesterday identified him as George H. Semplc, a book can Vasser who had lived at IS West Eighty street,
 Whatever mystery there was sur rounding Semples life and his family relations has been cleared up by the police. He came of good family, Mem bers of his Wife's family are well to do.
 Semple was tWenty-nine years old. He was the son of George Edward Sem pie, formerly partner in the wholesale grocery firm of Francis II, Leggett & Co.,, in Franklin street. The elder Sem Iple became paralyzed five years ago and retired.
 The Semples lived at EngleWood, N. U. Next door lived the Tonges, con- sisting of Mrs. Tonge, her son Samuel and her daughter Lizzie Semple fell in love with Miss Tonge, and they were married four years ago. He was then employed in a wholesale grocery house in this city. Soon after his marriage Semple lost his place.
 After he left the grocery firm Semple became a book agent He made good wages, but was always out of money and in debt. His friends say that he was not incorporate nor did he gamble. How he spent his money no one knows. His wife was assisted by her mother Semple last worked for an encyclo- paedia concern. He drew his wages so far in advance that when he died yes Iterday he owed the firm $250.
 Semples financial condition, it is be. lieved, unbalanced his mind. He told a friend a few days ago that he thought of killing himself. But" he added, "why should I do that until I have taken chance to get money. If I don't get it then l shall kill myself"
 Semples home life was apparently a happy one. He was fond of his wife and child.

 Louis Fialkowski, the eminent Rus sian mimic who is heading this weeks bill at Poli's Wonderland theater, has remarkable history He is a Russian nobleman by birth, although by reason of his stage career and his own choice he is estranged from his noble fam fly. Fialkowski has no sympathy with Russian institutions, being a thorough democrat by nature and temperament. He speaks fiuently seven different lan- guages, being particularly adept in German, French and Italian. He is a skilled musician also, playing uncom monly well no less than tWenty-one diff |ferent musical instruments. Altogether he is most remarkable man, as inter- eSting and romantic off the stage as he is on. Among the artists who are sup porting him are many brilliantly clever ones, especially notable among them be- ing the two American Macs, the three Mahr sisters, MT. and Miss Silver, Miss Lillian Alderman, MT.

HORSE CHEWED i CfRTRTDGE.
It Exploded in the Animals Mouth, Broke
 Its Jaw and Cut Its Tongue.

It's Jaw and Cut It's Tongue.
 New York, June 17.-In front of the Mott street entrance to police head quarters this morning a big bay horse that works for brewing company shot himself by chewing a loaded cartridge
 The animal not only shot himself, but came near shooting a shop girl who was passing on her way to work. The horse belongs to the II. B Scharman Brewing company of Brooklyn. One of the firms customers has small lager beer saloon in Mott street next to po- lice headquarters. The horse and his mate drew wagon load of beer to the front of the store about o'clock this morning
 The driver carried several kegs of beer into the cellar of the saloon, leav- ing the horses unwatched. It was while the driver was in the cellar that the shooting occurred. It is supposed that the animal, while nosing in an ash barrel, got cartridge in his mouth and began to chew it, The cartridge ex- ploded in his mouth with such a con- cussion that the report could be heard in the police building.
 Those who arrived on the scene first saw the animals tongue hanging about six inches out of his mouth, from which a stream of blood was flowing. The tongue was badly lacerated, and the shot also broke the animals jaw The bullet that was discharged flew across the street from the animals mouth
 Otto, the man of all work at police headquarters, who was crossing the street at the time, says that it whizzed past his head and went through the balloon sleeve of a girl who was pass ing.
 A veterinary surgeon was called to attend the wounded animal. The horse was then taken to Brooklyn. It is be- lieved that the animal will not have to be killed, but he will probably lose his tongue as the result of the accident.

Coached by Bob Cook, Riding Bieyc

Coached by Bob Cook, Riding Bicycle. London, June 1.-The Yale universi- ters last night, and were astir at an early hour this morning, taking brisk walk before breakfast After break fast the men went out in their boat for practice. They were coached by Bob Cook, who rode a bicycle along the bank of the river. The practice of the men was of a desultory character. The Trinity hall crew were also out. There was a rather strong wind from the south and a drizzle of rain. The rig ging of the Yale boat having been re- adjusted, the crew worked very evenly. After making several short stretches the men came ashore and expressed themselves as feeling better.
