PARTS WITH HIS CASH.
Victor Victoria Gives Up SLIT to Con-
fidence Man.

Victor Victoria, Italian scissors
grinder, called upon the police yesterday
afternoon and reported that he had given
up $177 to two alleged swinders. The young
man was unable to speak English. and 1t
was necessary to call upon Policeman ORR
ami to act interpreter. Through him
Victoria related his story of how he had
parted with his money. He was led to be-
lieve, he said, that he was to be given a
larger sum in return from an Italian who
had accosted him on the street.
The scissors grinder said he was near 14th
and Corcoran streets about O'Clock yes
terday morning. when he was accosted by
one of his countrymen. who invited him to
take a drink. He accepted the invitation
and went with him to saloon near 18th
and L streets. When they reached the
saloon he stated, he met another Italian
The third man told him he had been left
10000 by his brother to distribute among
the working Italians in this city.
Victoria said he was shown a roll of
money and was afterward asked to act as
custodian of it. The sum of 700, as he
supposed, was wrapped in a handkerchief
and turned over to him. Then he was
asked If he had any money in bank, the
owner of the supposed $4,000 saying he
Victoria was willing to accommodate the
man who had intrusted him with SO much
money, and he went to the bank and drew
sl77-all he had He turned the money over
to the confidence man and arranged to meet
him at hotel and have dinner with him
later in the day.
Some time after receiving the package
Victoria became suspicious and opened the
handkerchief to see the money. He was
surprised to learn that it contained only
500 confederate note. Then he hurried to
police headquarters to notify the police He
had the big handkerchief and the worthless
hill to show the detectives.

New National.

From the rising of the curtain last even
ing at the New National it was evident
that the Aborn Opera Company was COM
and before the close of the first act the big
audience was completely won.
Miss Edith Bradford, as the hungry. viva
cious daughter of the poverty-stricken
countess, made the hit of the evening, and
the audience demanded that the curtain
rise three times In order to see her kick
the drumhead.
Miss Tillie Sallnger, Miss Beatrice Goldie
and Miss Trixie Cadiz were the new men,
for the role of Gen. Ollendorf and provided
some excellent comedy entertainment
Miss Goldie made a good impression with
a voice of quality and fieXibility, though she
introduced an almost concert atmosphere
into moments of her singing.
Harry Luckstone sang the role of the beg
gar student Symonovitz very well, and,
with the versatile Phil Branson as En-
terich, gave the performance variety and
added quality. With LuckS.one and Miss
Godie for music and the trio of Miss
radford, Leet and Branson for spice and
snappy fun, the performance of the opera,
which Is unsteady and from the stand
point of definite plot of a high order, was
distinctly entertaining and moved with true
conception to the plot.
The Aborn company continues to delight
our music-lovers with its splendid interpre-
tations despite warm weather and counter
attractions of outdoor allurements. The
management is certainly worthy of the ex-
celent patronage that continues to follow
with each recurring bill.

of 9TH and l. streets northwest, opposite

poses and are rented. For some time no

One of the structures on 18th street is the
Tally building. which was erected in 1878.
and is now used a store and office build
Ing. The other two buildings on this street

ALLEGED CRUELTY.
Huma-e Officers Cause Prosecutions Of
Market Dealers.

A crusade has been begun by officers of
the Humane Society against the crowding
of calves into small crates for shipment.
and upon a recent visit of officers to the
Center Market and produce stores on
Louisiana avenue northwest, it is declared
the agents produced evidence against deal
ers which will be used to prosecute some
of them for cruelty. Close attention is
being given to the handling of calves by
the commission merchants and the agents
of the society declared that any cruelty
will be a matter for prosecution.
The first case of the kind to be brought
into the Police Court in the present crusade
came up today. when John B. Abel. a
merchant at $40 Louisiana avenue, was
arraigned on a charge of causing two
calves to suffer" He pleaded not guilty
and demanded a jury trial. Judge KIM
ball required him to put up $40 collateral
for his appearance when required.
The evidence against Mr.. Abel, it is de-
clared was obtained by a visit to the mar
ket by c. A. Snow, president of the HUI
name Society. and w. H. Haynes one of
the agents. When passing in front of Mr..
Abel's store. it is declared. they found two
calves crowded into small crates. In one
case the calf did not have room enough
to stand at full length inside the crate and
its head stuck out between two boards
on one side and was held down by a board
nailed just above the animals head. The
animal. it is declared. was unable to lie
down and was compelled to stand up all
the time.
On the day of the visit to the market
line, it is stated. the officers found several
calves in crates without food or water, and
they procured water for most of the ami
mails. Many of them were found to be
standing in the hot sun, cramped in their
small quarters and unable to lie down,
and it was this discovery which led to the
crusade against cruelty Of this kind

WATER SERVICE EXTENSION.
Section East of Anacostia River to Be
Benefited

The District water service is to be ex-
tended to that section of the city east of
the Anacostia river, including Anacostia,
Congress Heights, East Washington
Heights, Garfield. Hillsdale and Randle
Heights. request for this extension was
made by representatives of these sections
several weeks ago, and Capt. Jay J. Nor
row, Engineer Commissioner, has approved
the plan.
The extension will not be made for at
least a year. it will be necessary to Sc
cure an appropriation of considerable pro-
portion. as the laying of the necessary wa
ter mains incident to this extension will
cost $4,000 and the erection of a small
pumping station will cost $4,000. 1t would
be impossible to appropriate this amount
of money from the funds of the District
water department.
The extension of the water service was
the subject of a recent public hearing be-
fore the Board of Commissioners to the
residents of these localities.
