AN OLD COLORED WOMAN TELLS HOW SHE WAS ROBBED OF A LOT OF MONEY. At the northeast corner of Massachusetts avenue and 10th street Julia Blue, an aged colored woman, has been employed as a do- mestic, Some days ago a gypsy woman called and proceeded to tell Julia’s fortune, After looking at the lines in her hand, she exclaimed, “Chile, I see things in your band, but before you can get them you'll have to put money there.” Aunt Judy says, “I couldn't hope it,” and, the gypsy saying “You've got money in your pocket,” she wondered how she knew it and at once gave her a $5 bill. This the y took in her hand, and, while holding it, said: “You are going to be rich. It is already changed to $500.” en she left, promising to return in two or three days. The woman returned, as promised, and, Glixe Aunt Judy ' that she’ was going to be rich; that the money was growing and that it would be $5,000, said she would have to get more money, and she gave her 25.50 more. On Saturday another woman cailcd somewhat older than the first, and she stated that the spell must not be broken, but more money was needed, and Aunt Judy being thoroughly bewitched when she asked for money ad her all she had, #62. The old woman k this, and after making certain passes told the old aunty that when she went in the cellar Sunday morning she would find $5,000 and a diamond ring. She also said she would come back Monday and help to count and divide it, two-thirds to go to Aunt Judy and one-third to herself. ‘The money was not found nor did either of the gipsy women return. Yesterday, becoming aware that she had neither fortune nor money, Aunt Judy went on a hunt for gipsys across the Long bridge, where she had understood that the women were in camp. but failed to tind them, On returning she informed Officer Fergueon of the transaction, and she was directed to police headquarters, where she told her story to In- spector Swindells. Bell, gi years ol Maaca, Avnr, M AY, are the best months in which to purify your blood, for at Doc ther season does the system so much need the aid of a reliable medicine like Hood’s Sarsapurilla as now. During the long, cold winter, the blood becomes thin and impure, the body becomes weak and tired, the appetite may be lost. Hood's Sursaparilla is peculiarly adzpted to purify and enrich the blood, to create aguod appetite,and to overcome that tired feeling. It in- creases in popularity every year, for it is the ideal spring medicine, HOOD'S SARSAPARILLA. “Every spring for years I have made it a practice to take from three to five bottles of Hood's Sarsaparilla, because I know it purifies the blood and thoroughly cleanses the system of all impurities. That languid feeling, sometimes called ‘spring fever,’ will never visit the system that has been properly cared for by this never-failing remedy."—W. H. LAWRENCE, Edi- tor Agricultural Epitomist, Indianapolis, Ind.

Lee st., Alexandria, Va, Dunlap’s Suit Assistant of the I Hawkins. To-day, Mr. J. G. Bigelow, for Captain Oscar Dunlap, of Canton, Lincoln county, Dakota ter- ritory, entered another suit against Assistant Secretary Daniel L. Hawkins, of the Interior, for $100,000 damages. The plaintiff was cap- tain of Company I, twenty-sixth Llinois volun- teers, and on December 28, 1864, he sustained such wounds as resulted in the loss of his right hand and right foot, and at the same time gus- tained a fracture of the skull and left jaw, re- sulting in epilepsy and the permanent impair- ment of his mind and memory, becoming 50 totally and permanently disabled as to be ut- terly helpless, or so nearly so as to require the regular aid and attendance of another person. in the terms of the arrears of pensions act of matey! 25, 1879, and the amendatory act of March 3, 1879, he filed his application on the head in; namely, on June 2, 1880, and avers. that pon ised lication another person.” The plaintiff alleges that, his application before July 1, 1880, having he became entitled to arrears of ion at the rate of $25 per month from June 6, 1866; $31.25 month from June 4, 1872; #50 per month m June 4, 1874, and $72 per month June 17, 1878, and to be paid the difference —— between such rates and what had been allowed him for the loss of the hand and foot, but that Commissioner Black, maliciously in- tending to defraud him, ruled that he was not entitled tothe arrears because he had not filed his claim on or before June 16, 1880. The declaration further sets forth that the plaintiff appealed from this willful and mali- cious ruling by the commissioner to the Sec- retary, and that his appeal came before the de- fendant for his official action and decision, and charges that the defendant, well knowing the facts as above set forth, maliciously and wick- edly ratified and confirmed the alleged fraudu- lent ruling of the commissioner by which the plaintiff was defranded out of about $5,000 ar- rears of pension and a monthly increase of #22, and was subjected to great worriment of body and mind and reduced to circumstances of great poverty. For all of which the pamtie claims judgment against the defendant for $100,000, eg Tue Six O’Crock Cxvs.—The Six O'Clock club had one of its regular dinners and conse- quent debates last night, and as soon as the menu had been disposed of Chairman John McElroy called attention to Rev. M. J. Savage's contribution to the North American Review on “Can our churches be made more useful?” The article in question was read by G. W. Bacon, and then comment was invited. The responses were numerous, and the views expressed showed the possession of beliefs various and antagonistic. Some of the members went to church because they liked it; others went be- cause their wives wanted them to, or because they desired to study the latest millinery and dressmaking triumphs, while several pret a to roam around the woods or to stay at home. Among the latter was Miss Kate Field, a guest of the club. ee age st eet Fifty iron workers employed by the Lookout iron company, Chattanooga, Tenn., quit work yesterday under orders of the Amalgamated Association of Iron and Steel Workers, on ac- count of a proposed reduction in wages, All the New York militia will be mobilized for the inaugural centennial April 30.
