A BROKEN ENGAGEMENT.A Young Washlngtonlan Charged With
Duping His Affianced In Chicago.About two years ago a young nan named
Bayard Norv.l is said to bare left this city,where he is well connected, and started out totry his fortune in the city of world's fairs. InChicago he accured employment and wasthought to be doing well. At 280gden avenue,where Norval boarded, was also a young ladyfrom Boston. Mis* Era B. Soekett, who wasstudying at the Conservatory of Music. Norvalhad given out that he was in the employ ofJanes It Walker and his story was believed.According to the Chicago papers the youngroan and Miss Soekett bocamo intimate andfinally engaged. Tbo day was set for tho wed¬ding and San Francisco settled upon for thewedding trip. A few weeks before the wed¬ding day Norval. it is charged, succeeded ingetting iOO twice from his affianced by a state¬ment that there was a delay in receiving hissalary. Juit before the wedding day, it is as¬serted. he obtained another loau for the pur¬pose of buying the tickets to San Francisco,the paymaster again having failed to turn up.From this time Norval disappeared for a week.Tho police were asked to drag the river for hisbody. The police, however, thought theywould drag the city first, and about 4 o'clockdiscovered young Norval at a pool room andtook him before a justice. Miss Eva was sentfor and Norval calmly lufonned her that hewag very sorry, bnt he had put her money onthe wrong horse and that also he had been dis¬charged from Mr. Walker's. Miss Soekett atlirst refused to forgive the young man, butliually relented, and the prosecution wasbto) ped. The engagement, however, is said tohave been shattered beyond mending.An Insult to the President aud People.To tliA Kdilorof Ire Kvksiso Stab:
I desire to call nttcntion to a very remark¬able provision in tho present District bill up-proved August C. Under the head of charitiesprovision is made for tho appointment by thel'residcnt of a commissioner of charities at a
salary of 13,000 a year, but who, the act says,shall not be a resident of the Tiistnot. Inns-much as most of the charitable institutions ofthe District have been established by the vol¬untary efforts of the citizens of the District,and as by far the larger portion of their sup¬port is furnished by the voluntary contribu¬tions of citizens, and as one-half of what Con¬gress does appropriate for these institutionscomes out of tlie tuxee of the citizens of theDistrict, it would seem that th'e appointeeshould be a resident of the District. Whatoutsider can bo supposed to have the knowl¬edge of these various institutions, their rela¬tive importance to tho community, their con¬dition and needs, or which of theiu can best beconsolidated that a resident wouid have? Sup¬pose such a thing should be attempted iu ref¬erence to New York, Philadelphia. Boston orChicago by their respective state gov¬ernments what would be thought ofit? Then, too. why should not thePresident be at liberty to appoint a residentof the District in case he coulu lind one whomhe thought best qualified for the position? Isit to be supposed that among the 230,000 inhab¬itants no one can be found qualified for theposition? Or, was it presumed that the Presi¬dent would improperly use the authority ifleft free to select a person from the wholecountry, the District included? It would seemso. else why this provision limiting linn to aselection from outside of the District. It mayhave been to provide a place for some politicalor needy friend of some Senator, as the Dis¬trict seems to be the final resort for such. Ifso. I sincerely hope the 1'resident will appointsome one of the able and experienced womenof national reputation, whose names I knowhave been suggested to him.Whatever may have been the reason I cannot
view it otherwise than as an iusult to tho 1'resi-dent and the people of the DistrictAugust 30, 1S1W.

The Washington and Cumberland.A dispatch from Baltimore to the New York
TrUturw says: President Davis of the West Vir¬ginia Central Railway Company and othercapitalists interested in the new Washingtonand Cumberland railroad propose to begin theconstruction of the line as soon as possible,having been delayed awaiting the action of thecourts in the receivership of the Chesapeakeand Ghio canal along, which the compauv pro¬pose to construct the new railroad. The closeconnection of the banking house of John A.Humbleton A Co. of Biltimore with the enter¬prise and their loug-standing interest iu theWestern Maryland make it probable that theWashington and Cumberland railroad will oiilvcome down the canal to a point nbove tho1 oint of uocks and then cross the country fora connection with the Western Marvland'rail-road. i he new road will be a strong rival ofthe laltimore aud Ohio ig the coal trade.

The promise of a cloee and ex¬citing contest for over <70.00( is not an everyday attraction on the racing program, and asthe day was fair an enormous crowd was on thegrounds to cheer the winner. Futurity day hasheretofore attracted from 20.(>00 to 35,000 per¬son* to the beautiful grounds of the ConeyIsland Jockey Clnb. Saturday there were fully25,000 there.Potomac was a favorite from the start, open¬
ing at to 1 and closing at 2 to 1, while, ofthe others. Ambulance, Bey del Bey, Montana,Esperanza and Masher were the most fancied.Notwithstanding the fact that Bergen had themount on Masher aud that the colt was reputedto be but a few pounds behind Potomac,the oddsagainst him gradually lengthened, and at tbeclose 20 to 1 could be had.

The earthfairly trembles beneath the thundering stridesof the cavalcade as they tear down the slightincline aud run through tbe dip by the woods.Busscll. notwithstanding his crushing weight,is leading, his hooded head, shapely neck,and strong shoulders showing in front ofEsperr.nza. who is but a head before Ambu¬lant* in turn, a head before (.'leopatra. Strath*meath. Kildeer and Potomac. The brightjackets of the jockeys aro constantly chang¬ing positions, and those in the grand standaro wild with excitement, it being almostimpossible to say which will pass the post inthe van. Apparently a dozen have a chanceto win. so close is the conflict. When theypass the half-mile pole, the Brighton Beachiilly, Nelly Biy. is half a length in the van,closely pursued by Potomac, who is now leav¬ing the ruck with giant strides, followed byMontana, who has come through next to tberail, Strathmeath, Ambulance. Bussell, Masherand Amulet, tho most prominent of the others."Baldwin's beaten," shouts an excited indi¬vidual, as Barnes draws his whip aud goes towork on Ksperanza. who is fast losing ground..'Belmont will win.there's nothing in it butPotomac," is the cry, as when well straightenedout for home Hamiltou gives the big chestnutIns head Mid he is on even terms with NellyBiy in an instant. Two strides more aud hepasses her as easily as tho Chicago limitedwould sail past a milk train, and a hoarse cheerarises from every part of the staud. In vainduos Garrison on Montana. Fitzpatrick onStrathmeath. I.amblcy on Nelly Biy uui Lit-tlefield on Ambulance whip and spur. Potomacis invincible, ar.d drawing away at every strideHamilton win* the prize for Mr. Belmont withridiculous ease. Potomac galloping underthe finishing line three lengths in front ofthe field. When opposite the lower endof the grand stand it looked as thoughStrathmeath would be second, but suddenlya bay colt, whose jockey had lost hiscap shoots from the ruck aud mows down inshorses with almost as great a flight of speed asPotomac showed, and before the public couldrealize it Masher (for it was the second stringto Mr. Belmont's bow. with Bergen up) is atStriftbnicath s tnddle. Fitzpatrick endeavorsto rally the tired Strathmeath. lie rides as onlythe dare-devil can ride, with teeth clenched,and miug whip and spur he tries to force thegelding home in second place. Bergen..how-evor. has a marked advantage, as Masher iscarrying 16 pounds less weight than his oppo¬nent, «tud whe u the finishing liuo is rcachcdMr. Belmont lias run first and second iu therichest stake of the year, Masher securing theplace by a short tuck.
tin the outside of tho track a no less furiousbattle is being contested. Bey Del Beyhaving run very strong and fast from the lastfurlong and nailed Montana. But it is a duelbetween Oarridon and Martin, mid Martin hasto succumb. Montana beating the California!!out a short head. Then comes Nelly Biy. Am¬bulance. Kildeer. Amulet Ksperanza. Bussell.Cleopatra. Long Fortune, Betty Prattler andMonterey in the order named.The w inner is a chestnut colt, sixteen hands
high, by St. Blaise, out of Susquehanna. Hehas a few grhy hairs in the flank and quarteraud three of his legs are white. He is stronglymade, but is remarkable for the developmentof his quarters, winch would do credit to anythree-year-old Masher I* a solid bay, 15.3hands high, and is a businesslike looking fellowthat will more than pay his way in the future.To the San reporter Mr. Belmout said: "Iknew Potomac was a good colt and thoughtthat ho Would win, but it was indeed a sur¬prise to run first aud secoud for the Futurity,ilamiltou rode a good race and so did Bergen."The race was worth to Mr. Belmont, in roundnumbers, about $05,000, and it was certainlywell worth his remaining on the turf to win.
