CHOIR DISCORDS.
a Very Pleasant Evening Spent at
the Home of j. E. Beavis.

This was the heading OF the place
cards which the members of the Pres
byterian Choir and their guests saw
as they were finding their seats at the
table in the home of J. Il. Beavis on
Tuesday at z p. m.
The officials of the church were Civ
ing banquet for the choir and instead
OF discords the whole evening was one
OF the most harmonious pleasure. But
the place cards did not refer to the peo-
pie themselves but the manner in
which their names could be mixed up
and brought out in the shape of the
popular and craft daffydills with which
the card was filled, to the great hilarity
OF the twenty guests who almost forgot
they were there to eat. in the absorbed
enjoyment OF this feature.
However the delicious four course
dinner found extraordinarily good ap.
petites and plenty of praise was be-
slowed upon the cooks. several of the
ladies from the l.. b. S. having taken
the serving OF the banquet upon them
selves
Afterwards in the parlors a musical
program in the shape Of appropriate
games, contests and songs was given
iOl iilt anu llOJ a. uuii
moment was experienced. Just before
parting, Mr.. Beavis, in behalf of the
officials, presented Mrs. Palmer, the
pianist and choir leader, with a beau
tiful cut glass fruit bowl, in token Of
the appreciation of the church OF her
uptiring services. BY 1870 all good
nights had been said and this good
time passed into the past with other
pleasant memories.

R|XEY CASE GOES
|. IN FEDERAL COURT
HAHEAs CORPUS PETITION is DE.
MED. BUT AN APPEAL is
GRANTED.

Application was made Saturday by
G. Jnoes htNey, Jr.. son OF the preEl-
dent of the detunCt Virginia safe De-
post and Trust Company of Alexail-
drs, TO Judge Edmund " addill in the
United Statese District Court for
Eastern Virginia for a writ of habeas
corpus to prevent the removal OF
Hixey, Sr.. who was declared insane
by a commission of lunncy following
the wrecking Of the bank Of which he
was head from the Yves ern State
Hospital at stanton to the Marion
Hospital for the CriminaiIv Insane. The
application was made through Attor-
ueys John l.. Jeffries, OF Norfolk and
James II. Cation. OF Alexandria. on
the ground lhat-the-G commitment OF
Rixey to the Marion hospital was in
violation of the Constitution of the
United States.
Judge Waddil denied the writ, but
allowed an appeal direct TO the SUI
preme Court Of the United States. and
issued an order preventing the trans
fer of Rixey until the highest tribunal
in the country had decided the CON
stitutionalty of the transfer.
Prior to the time set for RiXey's
trial in tho Corporation Court of Alex
andria. Rixey was adjudsed insane by
& lunacy commission, and sent To the
hospital at Staunton. judge j. {. Bar
ley disregarded the decision of the
commiss ion and ordered Rixey trans
ferred TO the Hospital for the Grim
inal insane at Marion. The defense
claims that committing a person TO
an asylum for criminal insane before
trial, liz in violation Of the Constitution,
and on these grounds the application
for the habeas corpus writ was made.
Before applying to the Federal Court
an attempt was made to get the case
before the Supreme Court of Appeals
of Virginia. but each Of the judges
decided that the point raised was not
material and refused To interfere.
