ACID AS A WEAPON.
Lena Weaver's Method of Redressfng
Alleged WONG.


Lena Weaver, colored, was today sent to
jail for six months by Judge Mills fer
throwing carbolic acid in the face of
Archie Valentine. also colored, and badly
disfiguring him. The accused admitted her
guilt. Valentine said that last Thursday
evening Lena called at his place of en-
ployment and asked him If he would take
back something which she claimed he had
said against her character Valentine re-
fused. saying he had not made the remark.
''All right, them she is said to have re-
piled. IF you won't do as 1 asked you 1
viii fix YOU
Lena then went away and the next even
ing again went to see Valentine. She found
him at work, and addressing him, said
Are you going to take those words pack?'
NC" answered Valentine, at The same
time looking toward the woman.
Then take this" and suiting The sction
to the word, she dashed a cupful of acid
into Valentines face, which was horribly
disfigured as the result, while his left eye
was seriously burned. For a time the sight
was threatened, but DR.. ]. H. MunieH be-
lieves he will be able to prevent its loss.
Lena told Judge Mills that Valentine had
said very bad things to a female friend
about her. The court said that was no JUS
t;fcation for an assault, especially oLe of
the kind proved, and that 1t was only be-
cause the prisoner pleaded guilty and had
no police record that he made the penalty
as light as he did.

THE PROBLEMS OF PEACE.
What Influenced British Journals
Say-Cubn and the Philippines.

what Influenced British Journals
Say-Cubn and the Philippines.
From the London Times
Unfortunately, the position both in Cuba
and in the Philippines presents eonsidera-
tions of another kind. In both countries
there is a large insurgent population whose
future will have to be taken into account.
Probably the best thing for the world at
large and for these populations themselves
would be that America should boldly as
some of the burden of giving them strong
and honest government through her own
officials. But the burden is very heavy,
and it is of a kind which she has not
been accustomed to bear in the past and
which she is not perhaps equipped to bear
in the immediate future. In Cuba she viii
almost certainly have to undertake it In
one shape or another. The question of the
fitness of the Cubans for self-government
has unhappily become entangled with the
party politics of the United States. But re-
cent incidents in the neighborhood of San
tiago appear to have gone far to convince
the most instructed opinion in America that
the immediate grant OF autonomy or any
thing resembling autonomy to men like
Garcia and his associates would be a cruel
kindness, which must be followed by an
archy and eventuate in a fresh American
Intervention. In Cuba, at all events, the
problem of the future administration rests
solely between the Americans and the ma
tives. 1t Is out of the question that the
Spaniards should claim to have any voice
in its solution.
In the Philippines. on the other hand,
the situation Is complicated by the possi-
bility that Spain may wish. however un-
wisely in her permanent interests, to reas-
sumo her position as sovereign power II
she were strong enough to do so without
civil war, such an arrangement might not
be unacceptable to the United States. pro-

Gunboat Hawks Exploit.

Sergeant Montgomery of the 5th police
precinct has received a letter from a WASH
ington boy who is sailor on the auxiliary
gunboat Hawk. The letter was written at
Santiago, July %, and the writer tells
something of the movements of the gun
boat in Cuban waters.
I'VE have done a great deal of chasing
since we reached here" says the writer.
He then tells of the capture of a prize, and
says they lost the best prize of all by the
burning of the Alphonso XII.
There were large number of Washing

the exciting capture occurred. among them

ii Spain were recognized by America as
mistress of the Philippines she would have
TO engage in war of reconqueSt which
might be attended by the most serious con-
sequences to American and other inter-

ously with the American forces.

Special Correspondence of The Evening Star


ALEXANDRIA. Va, August 3. 1898.
Early this morning news was received at
the police station that the body of a dead
or wounded man had been found in front
of Downey's school house in Fairfax coun-
ty about two and one-half miles from
town.
When discovered the man was lying
across the road with a CHASTITY bullet wound
in his right ear. A few PAGES off on the
steps of the school house was a large pool
of clotted blood. About the steps the
ground was torn and disturbed though
the scene of fierce struggle. A 3S-caliber
double-action pistol, with two empty car
tridges lay on the steps. Scattered around
in confusion were the contents of two
satchels, clothing stained with blood, books
papers, toilet articles, patent models and
tools of different descriptions. The papers
showed that the mans name was James
Hoffman of New York. There We're found
a patent for undercoat sleeve holders,
granted in 1894; receipt for making soap
and several letters from soap manufac
turers.
Apparently the unfortunate was Ger
man about forty years of age. He was in
telligent-looking, of medium stature, with
bearded face. Al 10 o'clock this morning
he was still showing signs of life, but was
unconscious
The man wsss seen yesterday about noon
on Hunting Creek bridge, and later on in
the neighborhood of the school house. Dur
ing the rain last night an old cOored man,
living near the scene of the shooting, heard
two pistol shots at an interval of twenty or
thirty minutes. The consensus of opinion
is that the stranger shot himself, but the
condition of his satchels~ points to an at
tempted robbery. Every article had been
taken from both satchels and scattered far
and wide. The 81 ound for ten feet around
showed signs of Il scuffie, and the lonely
sequestered spot adds to the suspicion of
murderous assault.
Whether the lone traveller, sitting on the
steps and exposed te the pelting rain and
winds of q stormy night, determined to
end existence by his own nand or whether
some one was tempted to commit a foul
deed through hope of plunder, is a question
not yet decided. There seemed to be no
possible hope of saving his life. but a pny-
sician was sent for and a wagon to carry
the body to Alexand Infirmary.
