FIsHTowN.-The authorities on Sat-
urday used every posi- BILE means to
abate the nuisance at Fishtown. Extra
wagons were employed all day in re-
moving the fish offal and the work was
continued until twelve o'clock at night,
At that time four barrels of lime were
spread upon what remained. 1t was
reported that two bugeyes loaded with
spoiled fish were casting their cargoes
into the river opposite the canal basin,
and Lieutenant Smith proceeded to the
vicinity and ordered them to desist un.
der pain of being arrested. Later the
Mayor requested the Washington au
thorities, who have jurisdiction over
tie river front, to order the patrol boat
Joe Blackburn to proceed down the
river and lookout for those who were
likely to cast fish into the river. The
Washington Office responded that they
would look after the matter. Yester-
day Lieutenant Smith kept lookout
on the river front, but saw no one at
tempt to throw cargoes in the water.

A PERNIcIoUs PRAoTIoE.-Bicyclists
complain that people living in certain
parts of the city wantonly cast broken
bottles in the streets for the purpose of
cutting the tires of their wheels; also
that others place bale wire in certain
thoroughfares which is equally dam
aging to bicycle as it winds about the
axle causing injury and trouble. There
is plain law against casting any such
things in the street, and those owning
wheels are determined to have exam
Piles made of some of the offenders.
The matter has heen reported to the
Mayor and the police have been in
structed to keep shar lookout for per-
sons guilty of the offense alluded to.

and when the glistening badge of the
officer was seen an attempt was made
TO close the door, but the officer got
one arm in, and after having his hand
soueezed forced an entrance. Those in
the saloon attempted to "bolt," but
thew were stopped and their names
procured as witnesses, while McNichol
was told to prepare to 60 to the station
house. This morning McNichol was
brought before the Mayor. He was
represented by Mr.. Charles Bendheim,
and it was urged by the defence that
McNichol was merely the dispenser
for the Potomac Association" a club.
Il was shown, however, that the club
was myth, that nobody belonging to
il Maid dues, the treasurer knew moth
ing of the receipts or the expenditures,
in short nothing was produced to veri.
fy the standpoint taken by the defense.
The facts were established that the Sc
loon was kept open on Sundays, that
the same prices were charged for
drinks as in other saloons and that
any one could procure checks whether
he were q member of the club or not.
McNichol was fined $27, and if he fails
to pay the assessment he will be sent
to jail subject to the chain gang. An
appeal was denied in the case. Bird
well was dismissed, with the assurance
that should he fail to betake himself to
some honest employment he will be
made to keep company with McNichol

YEsTERDAY.-The temperature of
yesterday was that of midsummer, the
mercury running up to go. The day
was beautiful one, however, and the
green grass and the opening leaves and
blossoms of the trees added to the
beauty of a spring Sunday. The per-
fume from the fruit trees and the early
flowers was refreshing, and in the even
ing when the light shower fell accom-
panied by lightning and thunder and a
delightful breeze, typical summer day
was ended. Despite the warm tenn
perature the churches were all well at
tended, and in the evening many per-
sons were on the streets. The usual
number of Sunday visitors from Wash
ington were in the city, while many
Alexandrians spent the day in the sur
rounding country or in Washington.
