This morning the detectives received a letter
from the Philadelphia authorities giving the
information that the prisoner's wife?Mary De
Hughes?is now living in Anberry Place. She
was married to the prisoner in 1968. This the
officers think is wife No. 1. A woman in Nash
ville they think is wife No. 2. Rud the Indianap
olis woman they think is his latest wedded wife.
1 roni information received the officers now
believe that the prisoner's right name is Dallas
11. De Hughes, and that Sinclair and Newman
are his assumed names. Last evening a resi
dent of this city, who formerly lived m Phila- I
delphia, visited police headquarters and iden
tic d a picture of the prisoner as being that of
Dallas M. De Hughes, formerly of the Quaker
city. To make sure this gentleman gave a
sample of handwriting which he said would
correspond w ith that of the prisoner. The lat- 1
tei- s sermons and letters were produced, and
the similarity of the handwriting was clearly
established. The citizen mentioned further
stated that the prisoner was in his employ in
Philadelphia in 1870. but he knew him long be
fore that time. He gave from his recollection
the following
BRIEF HISTORT OF THE PRISONER:
"Do Hughes was married in Philadelphia
about 1868 or 1869. In 1870 he lived at No. 713
Webb street. In the latter part of the same
year he went west, but did not take his wife
with him. lie returned to Philadelphia and
November 6. 1871, he went to work as a brake- j
mun on the Chestnut Hill freight line, and was
then boardiug at No. 711 Wood street. His
wife was not then living with him. but was sew
ing at the Soldiers' Orphans' Home, on 22d
street above Brown. She worked there until
July. 1871. when she returned to her mother in
Beading. Pa. In June, 1871, she visited No.
713 Webb Btreet. her former home, and then
stated that her hnsband was studying law."
AS A TREACHER.
"About 1874 De Hughes entered the Maine
M. E. conference. Three years later he entered
the New Jersey conference by transfer from
the Maine conference. At the conference held
in 1880 De Hughes represented that his wife
was a?invalid and needed medical attendance, 1
nnd requested that he be stationed near l'hila- ;
delphia. He was then (in 1880) appointed to j
the church at Cinnaininson, Burlington county.
New Jersey, near Camden. One year later lie
was reappointed to the same church. In
August of that year he left Cinnaininson, aban
d.A<l the woman who was then his wife, and
ran off with another woman. On the boat
going from Camden to Philadelphia lie pre
tended that he jumped overboard, and caused
a report that he had committed suicide to be
extensively circulated. March 10. 1882. he was
expelled from the New Jersey conference."
itev. Dr. Perry, of New Jersev. who is now
in the city, also remembers De Hughes as hav
ing been connected with the New Jersey con
ference.
Thieves in a Stationery Store.
THEIR BtSOUSO ATTEMPT TO OPES A SAFE.
Sometime during Tuesday night the sta
tionery store of Miller & Herbert, No. 1417
Pennsylvania avenue northwest, was entered
by thieves aud robbed of about *3 in small
change and a couple of handkerchiefs which
had been left in the store by a customer. The
entrance was effected from the rear by the
thief climbing through a narrow transom.
After getting in the store he opened the rear
door. The drawers about the store were
searched, but no money was secured except a
small amount from the cash drawer. Two
handkerchiefs were taken from a satchel. Dis
appointed at his small hanl the thief seems to
have gone to work in a bungling manner to
break open the safe by blows on the door with
the iron rod which fastens it. The only result
was that paint was scratched from the safe
door and several slight dents made. The safe
is in the rear of the store, behind a partition.
The gas in that part of the store was lighted,
but in the trout portion of the store there was
no light.
About four weeki^ ago the store of Abram
Minster, dealer in gents' furnishings, adjoin
ing Miller 4 Herbert s book store, was entered
by removing a shutter from the rear door and
then reaching through a broken pane of glass
to the leek and bolt. The store was ransacked,
and f2.8l taken foom tfie cash drawer. It is
supposed that both robberies were committed
bv the same person or persons. Thcv were
evidently not the work of professional thieves,
but most likely of boys. There were many
articles of value in both stores, but nothing
was missing from either except money,

At tbe National Guard headquarters last
night a number of the officers met to hear read
the letters which had been sent in by some of
them fh answer to tho problems submitted to
them some time since by Gen. Ordway regard
ing the suppression of riots and defense of the
Treasury Department and of the property of
tbe Baltimore and Potomac railroad, in case
of an attack by a mob.
There was a diagram of the B. and P. depot
and its surroundings sketched upon the black
board by Gen. Ordway, who referred to it by
way of explanation during the reading of the
letter*.
SK1XAL COUPS SCOOESTIOS9.
The flr?t paper read was that of the signal
corps. It did not relate to any of the problems
submitted, but contained suggestions of how
communications could be established between
different telegraph sections of the city in case
of the cutting of telegraph and telephone wires
by a mob. The paper proposed to establish a
central signal station at the State, War and
Navy departments, with relays in different
sections of the city. The paper also proposed
that several tried and trnsty men be detailed
from the corps to go armed, in citizens'clothes,
among the rioters and learn their strength, in
tentions and other important matters and com
municate them by the waving of a Hag. a hat
or a coat.
DEFENSE or THE BALTIMORE AND POTOMAC RAIL
ROAD.
One of Gen. Ordway's problems was:
?'In cose of public tumult or riot, it being
deemed advisable to guard the property of the
Baltimore and Potomac railroad company, and
being ordered to perform that duty", what
would you do? Describe what you would do
in each of the following rases to provide for
defense against an apprehended attempt by a
mob: 1. To destroy or render impossaolo tho
railroad bridge across tho Eastern branch.
U. To destroy the navv-yard tunnel. 3. 'lip de
stroy the round-house and locomotives at the
corner of (ith street and Virginia avenue. 4. To
destroy tho freight depot on Maryland avenue.
5. To destroy or render impassable tho Long
bridge."
A good many answers to this problem were
received from National Guard officers, which
were discussed and commented upon at some
lenglh.
DEFENSE OF THE TREASfBV.
Another problem was the defense of the
Treasury building in case of an attack by a
mob. But few answers were received to this.
The papers read last night were compli
mented by Gen. Ordway. The names of the
authors in etery ease were withheld.
It is the intention of Gen. Ordway to con
tinue tho reading of tho answers to "the prob
lems as they are received. They will then be i
discussed among the officers until an agree
ment is reachcd as to the best plan.
The next meeting of the school of officers
will be held on the 2Sth instant, when the dis
cussion will be resumed. At this meeting Cwl.
Bigelow will deliver a lecture.

So Awfully Kiinny.
From the Boston Transcript.
Look at that drunken man! Isn't it awfully
funny to see him reeling along the street, now
on this side and now on the othe'r? There he
goes kerslam against that lamp-post! It's
enough to make one die of laughter! Hello!
he has fallen flat into the gutter! See him
wallow in the mud! Isn't it excruciatingly
diverting?
Hear him talking parrot-like, unmeaning non
sense! It's as good as a play! What exquisite
humor iu his thick, incoherent utterance! Did
you ever hear anything half so funny?
Just watch his eyes ! How wild they look !
If one did not know he was only drunk, one
might think him u madman. Great fun, isn't
it?
Wonder if he's going home! His wife is
probably waiting for him. What fun to see
her when ho tumbles into th?- house! How
laughable to see the tears fall from litr
streaming eyes! How diverting to scan her
iiinehtd face, with Its look of anguish and
long suffering. Perhaps she thinks, as she
sees him to-niglit, of the bright, clean and
handsome young mau who won her heart not
so many vears ago! And now look at the con
trast! That sodden face, those torn and soiled
clothes, that meaningless jargon, this wreck of
a man! Isn't it jolly?
Look at the scant supper that is spread upon
the table! The woman and her little ones aro
evidently suffering from want of proper food!
The money which should succor them goes into
the rum-dealer's till; the money which Hhouhl
buy them decent and comfortable clothing is
offered up to the demon drink! It's enough to
split one's sides. It's too funny for anything!
And see his little children! How they hide
a way in corners and behind anything that
offers to escape his observation! Ah! he sees
little Tommy now! See him chasing the little
fellow around the room! Will he hit him with
that bottle? Yes?no! his wife has caught hold
of his coat tails! I{;u ha! Ho is dragging her
along after him! See! he has turned upon her!
He hit* her with the bottle! See how the
blood flows from that gash on her forehead!
How still she lies! he has killed lier!
See the children as tlicy gather about their
dead mother! Look at their scared faces! Hear
their moans and sobs! And look at him, their
father! S?e his dazed, idiotic stare! Hark!
Somebody's at the door! It is the police. They
drag him off to the jail! Think of the morrow
when lie comes to himself! Think of the or
phaned children! Oh, yes, there is nothing
m this world half so funny as a drunken man.
No wonder we laugh at him as he pitches along
the street! ?

Is a complaint which affects nearly every body, mora or
less. It originates in a cold, or succession of colds,
combined with Impure blood. Dismrrotable flow from
the nose, tickling in the throat, offensive breath, pain
over and between the eyes, riutfiDf and bursting noises
in the ears, are the more common symptoms. Catarrh
is cured by Hood's Sarsaparilla, which strikes directly
at its cause by removing all impurities front thu blood,
building up the diseased tissues and giving healthy
tone to the whole system.
STUFFED-CP FEELING.
"For several years I hav# been troubled with that
terribly di?lgrve?ble disease, catarrh. I took Hood's
Sarsupanlla with the very best results. It cured mo of
that continual dropping in uiy throat, and stufled-up
feeling. It has also hcl|<ed my mother, who has taken
it for run down state of health and kidney troubls. I
recommend Hood's Harsararilla to all as a rood medi
cine." MRS. S. D. HEATH, 1'utuaui, Conn.
FOR 20 YEAES.
"For'J.I years I have beeu troubled with catarrh in
the head, indigestion, and treueral debility. 1 con

me so much (rood that I continued its uso till I have
taken live bottles. My health has greatly improved,
and I feel like a different woman." MRS. J. B. ADAMS,
