Lawyer Moss, the Hilisdale justice of the peace, carries in his pocket a peculiar piece of ‘wood which the “-voudoo doctors” call “eonjura- ion root.” It was given to him by a man who fold him that by its constant use he could —— increase his practice before the courte, it would only be a question of time before ¢ would become wealthy. In order to insure success directions were given for its use. In the first place he was to keep the root con- stantly in his possession and rub it on his hand. Each morning he was to spit on the root, and when he visited the Police Court he was to rub it on Judge Miller's chair. By so doing he could get acquittals for all persons for whom he was counsel. and that would bring him many clients. The root is said to be that of the Paradise tree. The lawyer received the “‘con- juration root” Tuesday and yesterday he had with him in the Police Court, but did not at- tempt to “conjure” the judge's chair with it. A Woman Found Dead in a Stable.

Jenkinson’s mail was addressed to him, but last night when Detective Raff arrested him his name was regis- tered as above at the sixth precinct police station minns the “captain” and the “U. 8. N.” He was placed behind the bars at{the station vestigation of his movements while in this city, According to the information received by the officer, “Capt.” Jenkinson has traveled all over | the country, and has made acquaintance in many large cities. For some wecks past he has been living with his wife and two children at No. 217 G street northwest, where the officer found him yesterday. The prisoner traveled ou the strength of his alleged intimacy with such people as Commodore Walker, Capt. Brooks, Admirai Porter and Commodore Schie; A CHECK ON A TEXAS BANK. He recently made the acquaintance of Mr. O'Brien Moore, correspondent of a St. Louis paper, and yesterday called on that gentleman 7” asked the correspondent. ‘. ve acheck here for #27 on the banking | firm of O'Connor & Sullivan, at San Antonio, ‘Tex.,” he replied, “and I want you to identify me so Tecan get it cashed,” Mr. Moore accommodated him, and the check was cashed the Metropolitan bank. Mr. Moore appears to have subsequently lost faith in his new acquaintance, for he wired the ‘Texas bank to make inquiries concerning Jen- kinson’s standing. An answer came denyi all knowledge of any such man, and Mr. Moore then made complaint to the police, which was the cause of the arrest. JENKINSON’S LETTERS. When Jenkinson was searched several letters were found on him. They were all addressed to “Capt. 8. N. Jenkinson, U. S. N.” One of the letters revealed the fact that he had prom- ised Mr. B. D. Atwell, a merchant of Hutchins, ‘Texas, to get the latter’s son, Horton B. Atwell, a cadetship at Annapoii Another letter was from A. P. Foster & Co., of Dallas, Texas, re- ferring to some transaction where a monetary consideration was alluded to. Both letters ‘The prisoner, when questioned, admitted thet he had done wrong and was anxious to compromise his case with Mr. Moore. Commodore Walker had heard of the prison- er’s free use of his name and had the records at the Navy department searched, but the name of Capt, Jenkinson could not be found. Jenkinson, it is alleged, induced many persons to believe that he had been assigned to the command of the United States ship Yorktown and was soon to take charge of that ship. The prisoner is held pending a further investi- gation, The charge against him now is false pretenses, — THE LIGHT INFANTRY. The Battalion Has Its Annual Inspec- tion and Muster. The Light Infantry corps, first battalion D. C..N. G., was inspected last night for the first time under the new law by Inspector-General T. M. Gale, Capt. Frank Aldrich, and Acting Adjutant-General Piexotto. The attendance was full and the command received high mark- ing for their condition, The inspection of the battalion was preceded by that of the cavalry company and the ambulance corps. both of which passed creditable examinations, The following changes have been made in company A: Private D. Sim Johnson promoted second sergeant, Corporal John E. Payne pro- promoted fourth sergeant. There are some good-natured contests going on in the battalion for the vacant captaincy of company A, caused by the promotion of Capt. Dalton to be d the vacant first lieu- Tr, tenancy of company C, caused by the promo- tion of Lieut. Ourand to be captain. It is gen- erally thought, however. that Lieuts. John G. Cowie and Frank H. Padgett will receive these places respectively. —— Lemonade in the Bucket. The North Capitol auxiliary of the Woman's Christian Temperance union held its first anni- versary mecting last night in the North Capitol- street M. E. church. The interior of the edifice was suitably decorated. and a number of tem- perance mottoes were conspicuously displayed. A novel feature was a well in the center of the church with a bucket suspended above. The usefulness of the design in the fact that the bucket was always filled with lemonade. swere delivered by Mrs. Maggie B. Platt, Hon. Hiram Price, and Mrs. George H. LaFetra, and he Old Oaken Bucket” was sung by M. Light. One of Mr. Price's most striking remarks was the one in which he called attention to the fact that the entire nation only raised 5.000.000 annually for mis- sionary work. while in the District of Columbia aloue more than that amount is spent every year for intoxicating liquors. Peunsylvanians in Office. The Pennsylvania republican association held its regular meeting last night and re-elected President Samuel KR. Stratton to fill the chair her year. Addresses were made by nt and by Messrs. Thomas B, Pe- nicks, Frank M. Evans, H. 8. Linker and Dr. Perkins. After brief discussion it was resolved to call upon the heads of the various govern- ment departments to furnish the association with a complete list of Pennsylvanians in each of their departments. A resolution was unani- mously adopted thanking Public Printer Palmer for his en action in the reinstatement of as B. Penicks as superintendent of the folding room, and respectfully recommending “to all heads of departments to carry out the example set by the public printer in restoring competent aud worthy employes who were dis- charged by the late democratic administration, his, we believe, to be true civil service reform.” —_——_>___ Prisoners Sent to the Penitentiary.

Arrest of Robert Powers at the City Post-Office, Charged with Mail Robbery. In consequence of reports of money missing from letters passing throngh the city post-office officers of the Post-Office department were de- tailed to trace the thefts and have been on the watch for some days. At an early hour this morning Post-Office Inspector Smith caught a colored man, Robert Powell, in the act of taking to be detained while the officer made a full in- | two five-dollar notes from a registered letter passing through his hands by virtue of his em- ployment in the office. The letter in question contained $30 and was mailed at Westernport, Md., to a person in Bath county, Va. The offi- cer took Powell before United States Commis- sioner Mills. The prisoner did not deny the charge. He was committed to the custody of the marshal in default of $1,000 bail to answer the charge of violating section 5467, R. S. Powell is a well-known colored man and bad been employed in the office for a year past or more. a BASE BALL YESTERDAY. The Result of Games in Other Cities. Although it didnot rain during the time usually allotted to # base ball game yesterday afternoou, Capitol Park was in such a &lippery, sloppy condition that play would have been impossible, and the game between the Wash- ington and Pittsburg team was consequently postponed. Unfortunately the Hoosiers managed to de- feat Boston by the score of 5to4, Clarkson and Bennett, and Getzein and Buckley were the batteries. Indianapolis made 8 hits and 4 errors, and Boston 8 hits and 3 errors, Philadelphia won from Cleveland by the score of 4to3by means of a little better bat- ting at the proper moment. ‘The batte were O’Brien and Zimmer and Buffingt: Clements, In the seventh inning—which was the last because of the rain—a scrapping match was started at home plate between Tebeau and Clements, for which the former, who was the aggressor, was fined $10. Faatz indulged in considerable talk to Umpire Barnum in rela- tion to the matter that cost him 350. Phila- delphia made 7 hits and 5 errors and Cleveland 5 hits and 1 error. New York won from Chicago 11 to 4, ina game abounding in poor field work., The Giants succeeded because they hit the ball hard and often, earning six runs, while Chicago was almost helpless at the bat. The batteries were Keefe and Ewing and Tener and Sommers. New York made 10 hits and 6 errors and Chi- cago 3 hits and 8 errors. At St. Louis—St. Louis, 9; Athletics, 5. Louisville—Baltimore, 11; Louisvill . Kansas City—Brooklyn, 13; Kansas City, 7. Boston's defeat and Cee aa victory yesterday tied these two clubs for first place, with a percentage of .700. John Ward made three errors It was extremely rongh on the home team for the Hoosiers to win yesterday, With Clarkson in the box against them a defeat seemed iney- itable, All that remains now for the Senators to do is to win all three of the Pittsburg games. If they do this and Boston wins all the rest from Indianapolis, the Statesmen will end the week in sixth place, At At esterday. —_—_ Washington Bidders, Bids from the following Washington firms for farnishing general supplies to the Goverment hospital for the insane for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1890, have been opened at the Depart- ment of Interior: Armour & Co,, Auerbach & Bro., San- tus Auth, John A.

On the question of real economy Hood's Sarsaparilla is so far ahead of other preparations as to place them entirely out of the race as competitors. Here are facts in regard to this popular medicine, easily susceptible of conclusive proof: 1. Hood's Sarsaparilla Costs the Manufacturer More than any other competing preparation. because it is more highly concentrated and contains more real medicinal value. 2. It Costs the Jobber More, as ajconsequence of the fact just stated. 3. It Qosta the Retail Druggist more, for the same reasou—as can easily be learned by inquiry. Hence the desire of some retailers to sell their own preparations, which cost them less, and for which they get the same price, thus malang more money. But 4. It Costs the Consumer LESS than any other med- icine, because of its greater concentrated strength, and the quantity in each bottle, and because it is the only preperation of which can be truly said, “100 Doses One Dollar.” ‘That the people appreciate this is shown by the fact that Hood's Sarsaparilla has The Largest Sale of any sarsaparilla or blood purifier. It possesses peculiar merit and effects wonderful cures, A POINT FOR YOu. When you buy your spring medicine you want the best. Ask for Hood's Sarsaparilla, and insist upon having it.
