THE LATE MRS. AvERY.-The re
mains of Mrs. R. w. Avery, who died
at the Hotel Bancroft, in Washington,
on Sunday night last, were brought
here yesterday evening for interment.
The funeral will take place tomorrow
afternoon from the residence OF her
sister, Miss Annie S. Henderson, No.
200 south Patrick street. The inter
ment will be private. MISS Avery's
death was directly attributable to heart
disease. About five weeks ago she
contracted a severe cold which de-
veloped into an aggravated case OF
grip. This, together with the existing
organic trouble, fastened her death.
All of her family were with her when
the end came and accompanied the re-
mains to this city. Mrs. Avery was the
daughter OF the late Mr.. John Hender-
son, who for many years was one of the
leading and most highly respected mer.
chants of this city. Her husband, Mr..
Richard Avery, who succeeded his
father.in.law in business, enjoys the re-
spect of the entire community. Mr..
Avery resided here until five years ago,
when he removed with his family to
Washington, where he has since lived.
Mrs. Avery was we'll and favorably
known here and host of friends sadly
mourn her demise.

Row IN A CHoIR.-Some excitement
was caused at the extreme southern
end of Lee street last Sunday night after
the congregation of Little Zion Church
had been dismissed, by the disorderly
behaviour of young colored woman
named Sarah Wanzer. 1t seems that
the latter, with Lee Level, his wife and
another colored woman, named Geor-
giana Wanzer, compose the choir, and
on Sunday night Sarah Wanzer said
she detected the fumes OF whisky which,
she intimated, came from Level also,
that he was stingy in drinking it all
himself This precipitated row BE-
tween her and Levels wife. Upon
reaching the street the Wanzer woman
wanted to fight, and it took the robust
strength of one of the brothers to hold
her. She WAS arrested this morning
and fined 50.

ASSAULTED BY TRAMrs.-Special
Officer John Loyen of the Southern
Railway had q thrilling experience be-
tween ten and eleven o'clock last night
in the company's yards. He saw three
tramps, enc of whom was on
crutches, prowling among the cars
and accosted them. The trio de-
fed his authority when he order
ed them off the company's proper
ty and became as ressve. They final
ly made an attack upon the officer.
The latter was knocked down by stick
in the hands Of one of the tramps and
he was being numerically beaten, when
he succeeded in getting his pistol from
his pocket and fired it at the man who
was on top OF him. The officers assail-
ant arose and attempted to make his
escape, but was caught by Mr.. Duncan
aud Special Officer Turner, who had
been attracted to the scene. The man
on crutches made his escape, but the
other man who was in the party was
captured. They were taken to the
station house later by Sergeant
Goods and Officer Arlington, where
name as Daniel Crimmins and his
companion that of D. NJ. Curly. This
morning he said his name was James.
Mahoney. Crimmins was taken to
the Infrmary, WHARF it was found that
the ball from Mr.. Loven's pistol had
struck him on the abdomen and had
ploughed its way upward, making only
superficial wound, and this morning
he was taken back to the station house.
Al the trial it was shown that the three
men attacked Mr. Loven and that he
was compelled to shoot in selfdefense
while PROSTATE on the ground. The
special officer had some ugly cuts on
his head, while Crimmins's Uranium
also bore marks from the scuiile. The
Mavor fined Crimmins $50, and when ne
shall recover sufficiently he will be put
on the chain gang in default of pay
ment. Mahoney was given ninety

MISSIONARY SUNDAY.-The annual
missionary celebration by the Sunday
school of Trinity NJ. E. Church took
place on last Sunday night, the Su-
perintendent, Mr.. 0. T. Baggett, in
charge. Miss Hattie Crane gave an
appropriate recitation. Mr.. Chas. Pier
point gave an interesting reading. The
music was very good, solo and quar-
tette deserving special mention. Then
came the spiritual and intellectual treat
of the evening-the missionary address
of Mrs. Amy G. Weech. Many had
heard this gifted lady before, but were
net prepared to for such an intellectual
feast. The map, made by her, giving
the numbers and spiritual condition Of
the different nations, showed great re-
search and her familiarity with the sub
ject. The beauty of the address was
its simplicity and the rhetoric and cru
dition was grand. The elevated plain
on which the soldier of the Cross
must stand cannot be described
in this brief notice. Suffice it to say
that it was q spiritual Gem" The
following officers have been elect
ed for the Sunday school missionary
society for the year: President, Mrs.
DIR. Bechtel; Vice President, Miss EN-
ma Williams; Secretary, Mrs. Amy G.
Weech; Treasurer, Miss Laura Holcom;
