and the "WeiI KnOwns" Didn't
Get II Taste.

There We're .'thirstys" of every kind,
size and degree in evidence last evening at
the reception tendercd the general pubic
by Mr.. Heurich at his great new brewery,
on Twent y-siAth street. The contents nI
keg after keg of ioaInlnG beer was Dealt
out with unSparing hand by corps ur
white -aproned attendants, and IT was no
wonder, therefore, that the great crowd
became hilar arious. But it was good naturrd
congregation tnat worshipIed At the shrine
OF bacchus, and hut few cases Of disorder
inarred the occuson.
AS u cautl0nary measure, Acting Lieutcn-
ant Keerc had the Third precinct reserves
at the big brewery to preserve order ana
keep the great crowd under control. The
services oil the blueCoats, however, w1rc
only required IN few instances, where minor
disorders resulted from an ovcTindulgrnee
in the amber fluid.
1T the entrance gate Lieut.. Kecfe placed

motley crowd, white and cOlorcd, and all
thirsty, thronged the gateway from the
opening hour, o'clock, until the buildings
were cleared, about three and Il hair hours
later, They pushed and scrambled tu gain
aduittance. but in a majority OF instances
were refused and remained without the
walls, listening to the ciinkiny glasses With
in and inhaIing the udor OF the lager.
Police headquarters was represented IN
the surging multitude by Detectives 'Hrter,
Gallaher and Rhodes, who were sent by
Inspector EGllinLeTger TO lookout for any
ofIhelight fingered gentry who might have
gained Ambulance by hook or crook. These
fly cops mingled with the crowds III
all the buildings, but did not catch any
sneak thieves. That class Of criminals ~ ere

and none Of the guests were touched Tor
their pOcketbooks or vaiuables.
Several rounders- Possessed OF a wholesale
thirst, managed 70 get INTO the main build
ing with the delegations of Gram; Army
men, organized labor and regular soldiers
and marines, Tut they were quickly spotted
by the police and elected.
1t was estimated that about 4 4:4o O'Clock
there were 1000 people in the big banquet
hall partaking OF Mr. Heuricb's liheraiity
in food and drink. Long rows of kegSwere
on tap, and the sound OF clinking glasses,
laughter, jest, and conversation made the
scene an animated one.
Men OF means touched elbows with round
ers in faded clothes, private soldiers Jos

the press for more beer and q bite OF
lunch. The gay uniforms or cavalrymen,
the bright scarlet trimmings of UncIc

Capt. J. E. Kenyon, the veteran sail
maker, has nearly completed the rigging
Of the schooner Waunita, now being built
by Mr.. Dean at Alexandria She will Ire
brought here in about a week TO receive
her sails and rigging.
The sloop yacht ScabelIe is on the stocks
al Rennctt's shipyard, foot OF Eleventh
street.
The schooner Bay Queen is dischargins
cargo at Sherifr's wharf, foot OF Sixth
street.
Capt. Dinger of the schooner Water Lily
says there are more oyster dredgers in the
Potomac and Chesapeake Bay this year
than has ever been known in previous
seasons.
The following schooners arrived at the
oyster wharf last night and THIS morning,
loaded with Potomac river oysters:
George B. Faunce. Capt. F. Chiseldine;
Ne,tie May, Capt. Chesser; Lucille West
ern. Capt. Thorpe: Horn Point, Capt j.
Chiseldine; VIM. Williams, Capt, Dodson,
and stephen A. Douglas, Capt. James CHS
eldine:
force of men are cleaning Water street
by hand today. 1t needed it badly.
The following schooners cleared today
for points down the Potomac:
Martin Wagner. Capt. Henderson; Will
sell, Capt. R. Chesser; Lily of the West,
Capt Linderman, and Isaac Solomon, Capt
Clarke.
Oysters are not so plentiful today, but
those arriving are of prime quality, and
find ready sale at 40 to 60 cents bushel
bushel.
The two-masted schooner Mary s. Ewing.
Capt. W. r. Clark, arrived at Sheriffs
wharflate yesterday afternoon, loaded with
plaster from Chester, Pa.
The officers Of the police boat, Joe Black
burn, report that they found no evidences
of illegal fishing within the District in
their Investigations OF yesterday.
The steamer Norfolk, from Norfolk, Va,
and Fort Monroe, was two hours late in

Many prominent Washington epicures
may be seen every morning at the oyster
wharf, tin pail in hand. They buy the pick
of the luscious bivalves by the buShel, and
have them shucked on the wharf.
The three-masted Schooner Horatio l.
Baker, Capt. Atkins, has finished unloading
her cargo of SEQ tons of ice at the wharf
of the National Capital Ice Company, and
will sail shortly in ballast for New Orleans,
La, where she will load with sugar for
Northern ports. The Baker is a schooner of
700 tons. and is provided with all the labor
saving devices now employed on modern
sailing srafts. She carries besides her Of
ficers, a crew of nine men and an engineer.
That seafaring men in Washington are
scarce is evidenced from the fact that
Capt Atkins was obliged to go to Balti-
more in order to fill his crew, which was
four men short. Two of the men shipped
in Baltimore are colored, and the rest of the
crew, who are Germans and Scandinavia
ans, do not appreciate their new shipmates.
The mate of the Baker says 1t is impos.
sible to ship competent seamen in this city.
