One objec- tion urged is that the seats and desks would have to be removed from the rooms used. THE GRAND MARSHAL. Already gossip has had several different dis- tinguished men chosen for the post of grand marshal of the inaugural parade. Gov. Beaver, of Pennsylvania, is mentioned for the place. He has been suggested by a number of per- sons who have written to the committee. As ennsylvania contributes so largely to the augural pageant it is urged that it would be fitting to select the chief marshal from that state. One of the members of the executive committee speaking to a Star reporter to-day said he'thought the choice of Gen. Beaver would be a good one. Anothermember of the committee spoke of the especial fitness of Gen, Sherman for the office. . Schofield is also spoken of. The executive committee has not yet considered the matter. COL. SWORDS AS SECRETARY, Chairman Britton to-day received a telegram from Col. H. L. Swords, at Des Moines, saying, “T accept the secretaryship you kindly tender me through Gen. Dudley. When shall I re- port?” Mr. Britton sent a reply requesting Col, Swords to report immediately. Col. Swords was sergeant-at-arms of the na- tional republican committee during the last campaign. THE FLOOR AND PROMENADE COMMITTEE. Chairman Britton to-day appointed Dr. M. L. Ruth, of the navy, as chairman of the floor and promenade committee. This is the last chairmanship to be filled.

No single disease has entailed more suffering or hast- ened the breaking up of the constitution than Catarrh. ‘The sense of sinell. of taste, of sight, of hearing, the human voice, the mind—one or more, and sometimes ali, yield to its destructive influence. The poison it distributes throughout the system attacks every vital force, and breaks up the most robust of constitutions. Ignored, because but little understood, by most phys- icians, impotently assailed by quacks and charlatans, those suffering from it have little hope to be relieved of it this side of the grave. It is time, then, that the popular treatment of this terrible disease by remedies ‘within the reach of all passed into hands at once com- petent and trustworthy. The new and hitherto un- tried method adopted by Dr. Sanford in the prepara- tion of his Kaprcat, Cure has won the hearty ap- proval of thousands. It is instantaneous in affording Felief in all head colds, sneezing, snuffiing and ob- structed breathing, and rapidly removes the most op- pressive symptoms, clearing the head, sweetening the breath, restoring the senses of smell, taste and hear- ing. and neutralizing the constitutional tendency of the disease toward the lungs, liver and kidneys.

Anold English merchant, giving business “points” to his young successor, among other things, says. “The first utility of frequent and regular advertising consists in this: there is at all timesa large class of persons, both in country and town, who have no fixed place for the purchase of certain necessary articles, and are ready to be swayed and drawn towards any particular place which is earnestly brought under their notice. Indifferent to all, they Yield without hesitation to the first who asks. Then a considerable number of persons who wish a supply of the article advertised and do not know of any particular plice where it is to be got, being thus furnished with the address of a person who can supply them, naturall: open a communication with that address whic! perhaps leads to much ulterior business. People are also liable to be favorably impressed by a frequent sight of a name in the newspapers, The advertising party acquires distinction in their eyes, and thus they are lead, in making a choice, to prefer him. “But by far the most important effect of ad- vertising is one of an indirect nature. It con- veys the impression that the party—pretending or not pretending, quackish or not quackish— is anxious for business. One who is anxious for business is unavoidably supposed to be an industrious, attentive, civil person who keeps the best of articles at the cheapest rate, does everything én the neatest and most tradesman- like manner, and in general uses every expe- dient to gratify and attach customers. “People like to purchase under those circumstances, and the system of adverti that such circumstances exist at this shop, they select it accordingly.” ———__ 00 He Got the Best of Bismarck. From the New York Sun. An incident of Gen. Sheridan's visit to Europe during the Franco-Prussian war is perhaps omitted from his article in the November Scritmer’s through ignorance of the facts. When the general reached Berlin he asked the American minister to recommend to him some young American who could speak German fluently to act as an interpreter. The minister recommended Mr. Charles F. MacLean. better known to New Yorkers as a police commniss:oner than ws an interpreter, and he fol Sheridan through the campaign.

That is of far more importance than the particular man who will be elected,” “How is your appropriations committee getting along With its work?” asked Tue Star man, “We are making good progress. I think we will have the District of Columbia bill ready to report when Congress assembles, and we ought to have the legislative, executive, and judicial bills ready then. Both these bills, or at least the first, ought to be passed before the holiday recess.” “What do you think of the reported plan of the democrats to admit some of the territories es this winter?” ell, I am in favor of death-bed repentance if it’s of the right kind.

The Supreme Court of the United States to- day rendered a decision in case No. 67, Henry R. Denny, plaintiff in error, agt, C. C. Bennett, assignee of A. B. Van Norman & Bro., in error to the supreme court of Minnesota, The principal point raised in this case is that an act of the state legislature providing that when- ever the property of a debtor is seized by an execution against him he may make an assign- ment of all his property not exempt by law for the equal benefit of all his creditors who shall file releases of their debts and claims, and that his property shall, be equitably dis- tributed among such’ creditors, is repugnant to the constitution of the United States so far as it affects citizens of other states than Minne- sota, It was claimed by counsel for plaintiff in error that this statute is ‘invalid because it impaired the obligation of contracts, and also that it could have no extra-territorial opera- tion, and could not, therefore, be binding on creditors living in a different state than thatof the debtor. The Supreme Court, in anopinion by Justice Miller, holds that the stat- ute is not repugnant to the Constitution. In its opinion the court says that the statute could not, of course, apply to contracts in ex- istence before it was enacted, but that the statute must be construed to be a part of all contracts made after it was enacted and that, therefore, it cannot be called an impairment of the contracts. The jadgment of the supreme court of Minnesota jolding the statue to be vaiid was, therefore, affirmed. Justice Harlan read an opinion expressing his inability to concur in the decision of the court in this case. What Senator Quay Says. HE CLAIMS THAT THE REPUBLICANS HAVE THE HOUSE BY NINE MAJORITY, Senator Quay hes heard nothing new from either Virginia or West Virginia, “I understand,” said he toa Stan reporter this morning, “that the democorats of West Virginia are going into’ court with their trouble. That is about all I know of West Virginia politics just at present. We shall have a majority in the House anyhow—a ma- jority of nine. I do not believe that demo- cratic governors of states will give certificates of election simply because they agree in their political faith. "I'shall refuse to believe that any such thing will be done until I see it. ‘There is nothing to be gained by any dishonest or dishonorable conduct; it would be revolu- tionary.” Reported Purchase by Jay Gould.

WANTS THE SCHOOL FENCES REPAIRED, The Commissioners have recently received se from citizens in the neighborhood of the Wallach and Towers public schools buildings complaining of the bad condition of the fences around the yards, and asking that the same be ired. The last request comes from Trustee Whelpley, of the third division. In his letter to the Commissioners he says he has had an in- terview with Building Inspector Entwisle in regard to rebuilding or repairing the fence around the play grounds of the Wallach and Towers schools, and that he petitioned him to repair or rebuild them, but Mr. Entwisle de- murred on account of the expense. Rather than have the fence remain in its present dilay idated cgndition the writer proposed that it taken down and the grounds put in better con- dition. This, he says, Mr. Entwisle consented to do, and states that that had been his inten- tion. After considering the subject, Mr. Whelp- ley continues, he was constrained to place the matter before the Commissioners and ask that the fence be repaired. If there be any expense at all he thinks it had better be for an enclosed play ground, which will greatly add to the dis- cipline, morals and health of the pupils, espec- ially the boys. “It is my belief,” he continues, “that fifteen minutes of base foot bail, tag, or shinny is an escape valve for restless energy, and a saving of two-thirds of the disa- greeable discipline of the school.” He thinks that the removal of the fence would destroy the play ground, also that its removal would be an inducement for the boys to stand around the corner lamp post and smoke cigarettes, He thinks $250 would fix the fence, and earnest- ly asks favorable consideration of his commu- nication at the hands of the Commissioners, The Dine TZ ZO BOT A TORREY. aa e District employes, including the i the firemen and the teachers of public schools, will all be paid Wednesday.

He petitions the Commissioners to have the matter settled. ——__ Real Estate Matters, H. P. Gilbert has bought, for $5,000, of C. H.

A REPORT FROM THE INSPECTOR—DISSECTING TO BE DISCONTINUED. Health Inspector Shepherd, after his exami- nation of the Georgetown medical college dis- secting-room Saturday, made a report to the health officer as follo “I found that admirable improvement for ventilation and obscuring the view of the room had been made, and I could not observe that there was any objectionable smell. But I advised Dr. Magruder, dean of the faculty, in view of the dissatisfaction expressed by neigh- boring residents against any dissection being done there, that it would be best todiscontinue it altogether. He told me the classes had been so far advanced that there would be no cause for further work in that direction in a day or two when he would have the room cleaned out and no further dissecting would be allowed, But if it is continued Ican have no cause for proceeding against them, as there is no — nce now with which to charge the col- lege.
