GIRLS FRIENDLY SOCIETY.
An Address Upon the Care of the
Eye.

Under the leadership Of Mrs. Henry c.
Bolton and her associates the Monday
evening meetings of the Epiphany branch
OF the Girls Friendly Society promise
this season to be of more than usual inter-
est. Monday evening last informal talk
on the Care of the Eyes was given by
DR.. Louis A. Green. After a few words
about the anatomical structure of the eye
describing by what marvellous means of
nerve and muscle the delicate organ Is en-
abled to do its Photographic work upon
the brain more perfectly and rapidly than
any camera of human device upon glass or
metal, he declared that, dependent as we
are upon eyesight for every kind of work
or enjoyment, the eye is the worst abused
organ of the body. People never rest their
eyes. On the contrary, eyes are constantly
strained, compelling certain muscles to
fairly bulge out and press upon the sensi-
tive network of nerves.
Reading in the train, while lying down,
before breakfast or In twilight was spe-
cially condemned, as also the use of cleo
trio light by means of the new burners
emitting so white light. The human eve
he said, requires light softened by some
degree of color. The light should fall over
the left shoulder upon book or work, and
preferably from the upper sash of the win
dow.
The speaker also gave hints for emer-
gency cases should lime or acid of any
kind be thrown into the eye.

CONCLUDES HIS TESTIMONY.
Sergeant McNeeIy's Statements in His
Own Behalf.

Sergt. Samuel A. McNeely, who has been
before Trial officer Pugh for several days
on charges of INSTRUMENTATION and bribery,
! finished his statement yesterday afternoon
after The Stars report closed. The prose-
cution called two witnesses in rebuttai and
the case was closed. Sergt. McNeely, after
telling of what occurred before the meet
ing on 1tth street northeast, as published
yesterday, said that he started home short
ly before o'clock. He got off the car at
the Baltimore and Ohio depot, intending to
stop at the police station. Lee was stand
ing near the depot. and the defendant in
stead of going to the station boarded the
next car and rode to 11th and East Capitol
streets
When he got off the car at Lincoln Park
ne said, he waited few minutes for Lee.
The latter finally came and defendant ex-
pected to get some information from him.
He told of the receipt of the letter purport-
ing to have been signed by Lee concerning
the meeting of man with $500 worth of
Jewelry. When he reached Lee he in
quired about the whereabouts of the man
with the jewelry, and Lee said he was over
in the park. Sergt. McNeely then told of
receiving the envelope from Lee He tore
open the end of 1t and Lee suggested that
he open 1t later. He then put his hand in
his pocket With the envelope in 1t. Later
he put the envelope in his trousers pocket
where he had number of bils-s69. When
he took the envelope from his pocket, he
said, the contents of it remained in his
pocket Then he took the slips OF paper
that had come out of the envelope and
the money from his pocket. The slips of
paper, he said, he threw away and the
money, including the two marked IS bills,
he turned over to the authorities at head
quarters. When Inspector Pearson ap-
peared, Sergt. McNeely said. he realized
what had been done by Lee and he became
crazy.
What followed. he declared, he did not
know. He said he desired to make public
apology for any discourtesy he had shown
Inspector Pearson and Sergt. Duvall.
Sam Cooper, theScolored man whose
name was mentioned many times during
the trial. denied that he had ever deliv-
cred Sergt. McNeely a message for Lee
William H. Lee denied that he wrote or
sent to Sergt. McNeely the letter that was
produced by the defense. He also said he
had never made a promise to furnish the
officer Information about bawdy houses or
speak-easies. Lee expressed the belief that
the sergeant was not excited when he re-
ceived the envelope.
This closed the case. The stenographer
will probably not get the testimony in shape
for transmission to the Commissioners for
several days. 1t is not known what effect
the Police Court charge will have on this
case. A hearing on the first named charge
in the Police Court will be had Saturday
morning, when argument on the demurrer
will be made. The Commissioners may not
dispose of the police charges until the case
before the court has been acted upon.
