Two Men Held Up by Six.

Two Italians were held up on the
Bladensburg road yesterday afternoon
about $50 o'clock, and at the conclusion of
the struggle for supremacy the two had
numerous bruises on their faces. The
parties assaulted were Giloromo Bonoduco
and Toney Peleno. Policeman Peterson of
the ninth precinct, CARAT of the eighth
precinct and Vermllion of the first pre-
cinct arrested Percy Murdoch, William
Carter and Honey Lee. all colored, charged
with participation in the assault. Three
others, also colored, are still at large Lee
put up $40 collateral for his appearance
in the Police Court this morning to answer
to the charge, but he failed to appear and
the money was declared to be forfeited.
Murdoch and Carter, however, We're tried,
and Judge Mullowny concluded to place
them In custody for period of six months
each.
Bonoduco and Peleno were on their way
from Trinidad, where they are employed on
railroad work. and were riding wheels. AS
they came near the crowd of colored men
the latter pulled them off their wheels and
soon stones and sticks were put into play
as weapons and the two laborers received
several blows about the head and body
which drew blood. Finally, however they
made their escape and reported the trouble
to the police The three bicycle officers
started in pursuit and after a chose of

THE TIL EAT E R.
New National.

A host Of George M. Cohan's friends
turned out last night to welcome him to
Washington in the role Of George Wash
ington, jr. The National Theater was
crowded to the doors with most enthu-
siastic audience. and before the final cur
tain fell the bright, particular star had
been persuaded to prance out in front,
where he begged his friends not to take
him seriously, but, II they pleased, just to
be amused. He was taken literally on that
proposition.
1t would be violation Of Mr.. Cohan's in
junction to speak Of the plot, which Is not
sufficiently involved to make any one take
unaccustomed mental exercise. Such a
thread as there is becomes frequently OBJ
secured, but works its way again when
there Is need for 1t.
One Of the best things that can be said
about George Washington, Jr.," is that
there Is not a single slow moment In It
the production having the real George
Cohan hustle. There are some clever songs
a whirlwind pony ballet and enough pa
triotism to start another war. Jerry j.
Cohan, as James Belgrave, United States
senator; John A. Boone. as William Hop
kins, another of the same; G. Harrison
Hunter, as Lord Rothburt; Helen F. Cohan,
as Mrs Stebbins; Leona Anderson, as Lord
Rothburts daughter, and Vinie Daily, as
Dolly Johnson, were excellent. George
Conan, as Senator Belgraves son, was
fresh and Cohanesque. Willis p. Sweat
nam, as Eaton Ham Of Alexandra, was
very clever indeed. The costumes and
scenic effects were all that could be de-
sired.

Proposes Electrocution of Germs.

The Commissioners have received COM
mum alton. signed e S. NJ" in which
the writer suggested the purifying of milk
with electricity. His method is 10 electro
cute the germs, and he argues that this can
easily bc accomplished by applying pow
erful electric voltage to a bottle containing
milk.
'No matter how big and strong the germs
may be. or how many in number" the
writer declared. the shock from the cleo
tric volts would be sufficient TO cause in
slant death. Cooking and scalding the
germs only causes them TO mix with the
milk. and many persons contend that these
methods spoil the taste. The germs when
killed ny electricity would come to the sur
face. and could be SKINNED before being
served to the consumer"
In his letter explaining this scheme for
the pGrifcation of milk Mr.. II. S. NJ"
Stated its application cannot help but be
successful, and he hoped the Com
missioners OF the District will advocate
Its adoDtion. When the matter was referred
TO the health officer OF the District he
smiled at the novel plan in his usual skep-
teal manner. and said that he doubted very
much If such a method is practicable. In
the first place. he said. the voltage might
cause the milk to curdle. and the electricity
would probably affect the can or utensil in
which the milk is contained when treated
in this manner"

which affirmed THAT the publication of the
details of obscene and sensational crimi-
nal trials in newspapers is against public

"Texas' at the Majestic.

The popularity of Texas" comedy
drama of the southwest, with dash of
the melodrama in it, was again fully at
tested at the Majestic last night by an au-
dience that crowded the house. The play
is stirring representation Of the life of
the plainsman in that country and was
given by a ell-balanced company.
Mr.. Charles D. Coburn as Jack Dallam.
the cowboy hero, delineated the role with
fidelity, avoiding the usual buster of the
stage westerner. He shared the honors
with Miss Ivah Wills in the stellar role OF
Texas" The latter gave to her part
modest and engaging Interpretation that
harmonized most acceptably with Mr. Co
burns work.
Mr.. Edward Archer's portrayal of the
role of "Pasquale." the half-breed villain,
was a clever piece of character work.
Miss Monica Lee as the bewitching widow.
Miss Edna Faron as Lady Cecil Trevor
and Miss Abigail Marshall as Lady Fran
ces Mackenzie were good.
Messrs F. E. Duff as Lord Angus Ire
vor," Louis Thiel, Howard Messimer and
Charles E. Graham as cowboys showed
natural proficiency for character work.
