LOCAL BREVITIES.

The Junior German German Club
will give hop at Odd Fellows Hall
tomorrow night.
Mr.. K. Kemper to-day received tele-
gram from Beverly, Mass, stating that
the mother of Mr.. Charles Woodbury.,
who is so we'll known in this city, died
there last night.
Last night at the Young Mems Ath-
letc Club at Jackson City, Pat Ready
met and defeated Jersey" Gordon, a
member of the fstic gentry hailing
from Newark, in six rounds of bloody
fighting. The fight was one of the
6ercest seen in this section in long
time.
Two colored men and a colored
woman were in the Police Court this
morning charged with being of the par
ty which threatened the railroad men
who ran Samuel Dudley, colored, the
railroad thief, on Wednesday. There
was no evidence to substantiate the
charge and the accused were dismissed.
Charles P. Stewart, cashier of the
Hotel Enrich, committed suicide in
Washington yesterday evening by
turning on illuminating gas at his
boarding house, 924 E street northwest.
His body was found by one of the in
mates of the house. Ill health, de-
spondeney and disappointment are said
to have been the cause.

ONLY Four CAsEs.-Oficer Fereu.
son yesterday called upon the city ply
sicians for the purpose of ascertaining
where scarlet fever existed in Alexan-
dria. 1t was found that the disease
was in hut four houses. The public
school teachers were given the names
of the patients, and, of course, children
living in those houses will not be allow
ed to attend the schools until all danger
shall have vanished. The superin-
tendents of the Sunday schools will
also be furnised with the proper infor-
nation iu order that they, too, may be
on the lookout. 1t is a great relief to
the community to know that the
much dreaded disease is not spreading,
but is at present on the decrease. In
fact at no time has there been any
more than an average number of cases
10 the city, the disease existing sporad-
ically nearly all the time and in every
community. 1t was nevertheless wise
in the authorities to proceed at once
and use all precautions to keep the
malady from spreading. The teachers
of the public schools to-day notified all
scholars to remain at home should any
members of their families become sick
from scarlet fever, diphtheria or any
other contagious disease.

DISMISSED WITH A REPRIMAND.-
The police this morning brought Jane
Marshall, colored, before the Mayor
and charged her with keeping a dis
orderly house in the alley running
through the square bounded by Pitt,
st. Asaph, King and Prince streets.
The house occupied by the accused has
been known as resort for the past
thirty years, and during all those years
complaints have been made by neigh
bors. OF late it was charged that OBJ
scene language had been used in and
about the house and that men are seen
emerging during the early morning
hours. Two young colored women
from Washington were found in the
house this morning. There being no
positive evidence against the proprie-
tress, she was dismissed with the posi-
tive assurance that should other COM
plants follow she would be sent on the
grand jury for keeping house of i'll
fame. The Washington women were
told to get out of the city or they would
be sent to the work house.

DEATH OF MRS. BALL.-A brief men,
ton was made yesterday of the death
in Richmond OF Mrs. Ellen Powell Ball,
formerly Of this city-a christian wo-
man whose rare beauty was but an in
dex of her lovely character-whose life
made many happy and whose death
has brought sorrow not only to the
home where she was so dearly loved,
but to the many who had known her
only TO be won by her beauty, grace
and gentle disposition. The Southern
Churchmaa, in recording her death,
says:
'Entered into rest, at s o'clock p. m.
on Saturday, January 11th, at her home
in Richmond, Ellen Lee, wife of James
N. Ball, and only daughter of the late
D. Lee Powell. They were very kind
10 her in her illness; they being the
many friends who called to see her as
long as she could receive u visit; they
The loving friends who supplied her
with beautiful flowers and the little
delcacies to tempt her appetite.
Thanks to them. But the Christ W g
the kind One, always with her, helping
her, comforting her; so that for weeks
she was looking death in the face with
out shudder. To Him many and low
ing thanks. Gone now, this dear one,
into the blessedness. Why mourn, save
for ourselves 2"

FIGHT IN A BAR RooM.-Mention
was made yesterday of fight which
occurred in a bar room on Gibbon
street kept by colored man named
Whiting. The parties in the affray-
Walter Posey, white, and William
Skinner. colored-were arrested by
Officer Deane. They both left collateral
for their appearance this morning. In
the examination of the case the evi.
dence showed that Posey and some of
his companions went into the saloon
where they drank once around, after
which Posey made another cali, but
refused to pay for the beer which he
ordered. Upon being told to do so he
cursed Skinner, who was attending bar,
and threw the beer glasses at him, one
of which struck him on the head and
made flesh wound. Skinner, at this
stage of the proceedings, threw glasses
at Posey and ne, too, received some
slight injuries. The Mayor fined Posey
$40 and dismissed Skinner.

Caroline county, which yesterday in-
vestigated the killing ola colored youth
named Chas. Obey by VIM. Cox, six
teen years old son of Mr.. John I. Cox,
of this city, decided that young Cox
acted in self.defense and he was ac-
quilted. Young Cox left here about
three weeks ago for his fathers farm in
Caroline county. On Tuesday, accord
ing to the testimony of Mrs. Anders n
and Florence, her daughter, and Julius
Loving, the colored boy was riding q
horse belonging to young Cox, and beat
ing it. Obey resented the interference
of Cox, and pursued him into Mrs. An-
derson's house, where he wss
boarding. Obey struck Cox with the
club, and Cox snatched q shotgun nesr
at hand fired point blank at the negro,
killing him almost instantly. The
coroner's jury decided that Obey came
to bis death by gun in the hands of
Cox, who used it in self-defense, and he
was honorably discharged. Mr.. Cox
and his sou returned to their home in
this CITY last night.

were much more numerous than they were
last week. Prices of Beef Cattle this week
ranged as follows:
The San Francisco call., 1896-04-05

Now company of infantry moving in
column of fours, the usual marching for
nation, takes up about thirty-three yards
of depth. A regiment of ten companies
would require $50 yards regiment of
twelve companies would require, with the
intervals between battalions, 420 yards. A
brigade of three regiments with usual in
tervals between regiments would require
1920 yards. A regiment of twelve COM
panies Of cavalry, marching two abreast,
will require 1872 yards, while battery of
artillery of six guns will need 240 yards.
Considering that all the baggage is at
the rear of the division or corps column,
we see next that division which con-
tains three brigades and four batteries,
besides ambulances, field hospital and
bearer companies, will take up 5O40 yards
of road or distance of three and three
fourths miles, without its baggage, while
an army corps of three divisions will take
three times this distance, and a great deal
more, since we have to add the cavalry di-
vision, the corps artillery, the signal corps,
the engineers and the trains.
Adding the exact amount of depth of
these other parts by giving fifteen yards as
the depth of each vehicle and its teams,
we viii have as the closest possible space
that the army corps can close up to on a
road 1852 yards. But this does not
allow for any OF the necessary intervals
between different organizations: and add
