A Good Boys Beck.

There Is no such literary gormand as your
good healthy boy. When he tackles q
hook he wants adventure: and no wants
plenty Of It. He Is no stickler for the nice
tiee Of style. but he likes what is perhaps
hest described by contemporary dialec-
ticians as something doing. Hence We
think Il probable that he will like Pearl
Island' CHarpers) by Andrew Caster. Here
he will find the story OF two boys and an
estimable and encyclopedia sailorman
who are wrecked on an uncharted island
in the Indian Ocean. To say that they
have adventures ts to put the matter mildly.
Earthquakes. volcanic eruptions, Malay
pirates. sharks, tigers. serpents-to say
nothing Of fearsome beast here described
as the Vampire Of the Sea-keep them
continually busy. The adventurers dive
for pearls and secure a goodly store: they
live in cave that has all the comforts
OF homo, and they fare sumptuously upon
turtle soup. oysters, snipe. quail. bread
fruit and bananas, with many other succu-
lent and satisfying forms Of food.
II the youthful reader for whom this book
is written does not consider that he has had
his moneys worth. We shall be surprised.

WHITES AND BLACKS WAR.
Negro Meeting Broken Up by Mob In
= Indianapolis.

dispatch from Indianapolis to the New
York World says: Indianapolis is filling up
so rapidly with southern negroes that the
white population begins to grow FESTIVE and
outbreaks are not infrequent. Last night
seventy-flve or one hundred white boys and
young men attacked the Southside Calvary
Baptist Church, in which a lot of negroes
were holding some kind Of social enter
tainment.
The whites were supplied with stones
which they hurled at the church, and when
the negroes came out clubs were used and
many on both sides suffered broken heads
and other kinds of injuries.
The prompt action of the Rev. w. c.
Williams of the church prevented the
whites from making a second attack and
probably injurng some Of the cOlored
party The police were summoned, but no
arrests were made.
After the social at the church some Of
the negroes walked to where a dance was
in progress in Phoenix Hall. Several whites
followed, and soon they had recruited
enough white boys in their lines to make
an attack The negroes at first stood their
ground, and pitched battle with stones
and clubs was fought. The negroes were
bv this time outnumbered by the additional
forces and put to rout. No one was ia
tally injured.

BOWLING AS AN ART.
Even When It is Bore It Gives
Pleasure.

From the Philadelphia Public Ledger.
II am tired of this fashion of bowling to
every one that you have ever met, said
the girl who had just returned from long
walk. It's a nuisance and farce. 1t
means nothing and becomes fearfully mo-
notonous. Bowling to your friends Is all
right, but constantly Jerking your head to
the slightest acquaintance Is very firing.
Take for instance the acquaintance with
whom you have not exchanged word
since your primary school days. You know
& would be snobbish and hateful not to
give the nod of recognition when you meet
them but as they have not the glimmer of
an interest iE you and you haven't an atom
OF an interest in them, it seems farcical 10
give the expected nod.
Then there is the acquaintance whom
you have met once. and with whom your
conversation has been limited to the con-
ventional words at introduction, Glad to
meet you. You must go on bobbing at him
through q lifetime II you live in the same
town with him. He wishes you would stop
bowling and you wish you could. You dare
not cease the performance for fear he will
think you snob, and he, of course, can
do nothing but return your salute.
ITO "a certain type of woman, however, /
suppose there is a certain delight in bow
ing. 1t is like a game to her. She takes as
much pleasure In II as she does in an ex-
tensive wardrobe. She has a naughty bow
for the fresh man, and the minute after

Marshal P. Wilder Married.

New York dispatch announces the mar
rage in mat city yesterday of Marshal p.
Wilder, the monologuist and Miss Sophie
Hanks of Brooklyn.
---f. Wilder has been before the public for
twenty years as an entertainer, and he has
TESTED before royalty and In the drawing
rooms of American society. Originally a
court stenographer, he turned his talent for
mimicry to such account that he became
well known. He is familiar figure at first
night performances on the Rialto. Occa-
sionally he makes the rounds of the vaude-
vile houses and music halls, where he APP
pears in monologues
Those who know Mr. Wilder well believed
that he a confirmed bachelor for he
had for forty-three years remained in
state of single blessedness. He took none
into his confidence yesterday with the ex-
ception of one of his friends from each OF
the newspapers of the city and few of his
associates in the theatrical world.
To the members of both families the we'd
ding seems to have been a surprise Dr.
Wilder, the father of the bridegroom with
whom the humorist has lived in the Alpine
apartment house for many years. said he
knew nothing about the wedding until ii
had taken place and referred all inquirers
to Colonel Marceau. The father of the
bride could not be seen, but at his office it
was said that nothing was heard Of the
wedding until nearly 8 o'clock.

Executive Avenue"
To the Editor Of The Evening Star:


1t has been proposed to change the name
of 10Th street above Columbia road, and I
understand that the name Mt Pleasant
avenue" has been proposed, but for one
reason or another has not been accepted
by the Commissioners. This name, of
course. would please the people of that
section generally. But 1t seems to me
that a more appropriate thing to do. and
something that would probably please
everybody. would be to accept a sugges-
ton OF The Star. made as long ago, 1 be-
lieve. the second administration of Pres
ident Grant, that the extension then pro-
posed, and which has now become a GER
tainty, should be called Executive ave-
nue." This would render 1t unnecessary
to change the name of 10th street and
would avoid the confusion and trouble
which must inevitably result from chang
ing the present name.
1 believe The Star expressed the senti-
ments of the community, in fact, of the
country at large at that time, in the sug-
gestion that this thoroughfare to be opened
as an extension of 10th street beyond CO.
lumbia road be called Executive avenue.
A little agitation of this subject in the
columns of The Star might bring about
the adoption of this name, which l believe
would be appreciated by a large majority
of the people of the District of Columbia
and elsewhere JULIA c. DOWELL-

meets some one she considers above her in
the social scale, she bows slowly looking
directly into the persons eye If it is a wo-

all. When she meets the man she likes

Personal Bonds Taken,

James w. Shelton was arraigned before
Judge Scott In the Police Court this morn
ing on a charge Of making threats of per-
sonal violence against Nellie Shelton, his
wife. Shelton told the court that he had
been having considerable trouble lately and
had tried to drown it in the flowing bowl.
He denied however that he had made
threats against his wife, but the court con-
sidered that in the face of his admission
that he was intoxicated Shelton was not
competent to judge as to his words or ac-
tons at the time.
Mrs. Shelton interceded with the court
to be lenient with her husband and take his
personal bonds. The judge consented, but
in doing so admonished Shelton that he
ought to keep sober when in trouble, for
getting drunk only multiplied his difficult
ties.
