Os Au Swes Ayer's Pills are commended as the best regulator of ‘the liver, stomach and bowela, Dr. Thomas Convers of Centre Bridge, Pa. says: “Having long used Ayer's Pilla with good results I can confidently recommend them above ail others.” Dr. George P. Spencer of Unity, N. H. writes: “I consider Ayer’s Pills far superior, cathartic, to any that are furnished by the pharmacopamia.” “After suffering for eight years from chills and fever, with only occasional intervals of rest, I was cured by Ayer’s Pilis slone. My esse had resisted treatment with the usual doctors’ prescriptions snd & great number of proprietary medicines; but under the inf uence of Ayer’s Pills the chills and fever cessed, my liver and stomach were restored to healthy action and my former good health returned. Ayer’s Pills cannot be excelled as a remedy for disorders caused by mala- Hial poisona”—8. L. Balrow, Gordon, Tex “For headache Ayer's Pills are the most effective medicine."—G. Rodea, Homer, N.Y. “When I feel the need of » cathartic! take Ayer's Pills and find them to be more effective than any other Bills I ever took."—Mra. B. C.

Mitwavxez, Wis., May 26.—The first con- vention of the German Catholic societies of Wisconsin opened in Deusscher Mennerverein Hall this morning. Nearly 3,000 members of societies, 100 delegates and 8,000 excursionists reported at headquarters, At the close of prayer by Rev. Father Pasel, President Kaiser introduced Mayor Peck, who made the welcome addresa. H. J. Spannhorst of St. Louis, president of the National Organi- zation of Catholic Societies, responded. The roll of delegates was then called and the con- vention adjourned until 9 o'clock tomorrow morning. Mr. Spannhorst in his address said the con- veution had no political purpose, using that word in its general sense, but of course there were matters dear to the members of the so- cieties that were political. It is expected that the convention will adopt resolutions in opposition to the Bennett com- pulsory school law, which is just now shaking political foundations in the badger state. —__—»___ Tennis for Wealth and Fame.

In his opening address President Alfred H. Love said the union has now thirty-two branches in the United States and fourteen in Europe, with a total membership of 10,000. He then argued that all troubles can be best adjusted by arbitration and that the science of peace should be taught in place of that of war. He thought military schools, armies and navies should be abolished and the way prepared for the millennium. ‘THIS MORNING'S SESSION, This morning's session was opened at 11 o'clock in Dr. Sunderland's church on 434 street with President Love in the chair and Secreta- ries Amanda Deyo of New York and Henry Janney of Baltimore present.

Mr. Moort said he hoped the (ae explorer would learn more of the civil- ed habits of the colored people there. Rev. Butler expressed the belief that our national legislature is in sympathy with the work of the Peace Union. TO PREPARE A PEACE MANUAL. Mrs. Amands Deyo, who is the correspond- ing secretary of the American Union and one of its hustling spirits, proposed » scheme to make the union solid from the ground up by preparing a peace manual to be used by local organizations in every township and city, and through such local and elementary but universal work to inoculate the whole country with the principle and thus prevent the disas- ters of war. To this end she asked that a committee of one or more members from all the churches and as- sociations present be appointed to compile the manual.

The transfer of Mr. Carlisle to the Senate leaves two important committee vacancies in the House, one on rules and one on ways and means, It isthe established custom to have the chairman of the ways and means and the ranking member of the minority of that com- mittee on the committee on rules, In the ordinary course of events Mr. Mills would go on the rules committee to succeed Mr.Carlisie and a new man would be appointed at the foot of the line on ways and means, But Mr. Reed is credited with being dead-vet against Mr, Mills going on the rules committee and it is said that he is thinking of appointing Mr. Blount, whom he has already placed on the rules committee to succeed Mr. Randall, to succeed Mr. Carlisle on the ways and means, and then of appointing Mr. Wilson of West Virginia to the vacancy on rules, The democrats would prefer to see Mr. Mills go on rules as the representative of the minority of the ways and means and to have Mr. Wilson appointed to succeed Mr. Carlisle on ways and means.

The President Commutes the Death Sen- tence of Lewis Williams. ‘The President this morning saved the neck of Lewis Williams, who, if no executive inter- ference had taken place, would have been hanged next Thursday at the District jail for the crime of murder. The sentence was com- muted to imprisonment for life. The Presi- dent’s indorsement upon the application for in this case is as follows: “In view of the fact that the petitioner was only seventeen years of age when the crime was committed, and of the probability that the heatand passion of @ collision which had taken so between the parties a few moments be- fore had not subsided, and of the recommenda- tion of the attorney general, the sentence in this case is commuted to imprisonment for life at hard labor in the New York penitentiary at Albany, N. Y. Bexs. Harnisoy.” Williams was sentenced June 15. 1889, to be hanged on Friday, January 31, 1890. On the 23d of January he was respited until May 2, 1890, and on the 29th of April he, with Hawkins, in whose case the President has refused to in- terfere, was again respited until May 9, next Thursday. JOHNSON’S BAD BOY. Judge Miller Lets Him Go Because the Reform School is Crowded. John Braxton, a twelve-year-old colored boy, stood in the dock of the Police Court this afternoon with his fingers in hie mouth as An- derson Johnson, his aged grandfather, told of his being an idle and incorrigible youth. “What does he do that’s bad?” asked the responded the old man. “Why, judge,” he continued, “it’s only two weeks ago Sunday that the boy stole my last €3, and last Sunday he went in my pocket and took my last penny.” “Does he ever steal from other persons?” “Yes inde he was sent for 50 cents worth of coal by a lady and she ain't never seen him or the coal or the money since.” “Did you ever try whipping him?” “Whipping him?” echoed the oldman. “No, that T ain't. Tell the truth, Judge, I don’t like to nue other people's children.” Judge Mil- ler told the old man fhat there was no room in the Reform School at present, and discharged the boy on probation. ges TOO LATE TO CHANGE. The House Census Committee Says the Questions Must Stand as Printed. The House committee on the census has made one ineffectual attempt to hold a meet- ing to consider the McAdoo resolution which seeks to cause the exclusion of cer- tain questions from the lists of the census enumerators, Less than a quorum answered the call for a meeting and those members who were present decided even if it were desirable to modify the questions there is not now sufficient time remaining before the enumeration to make any changes. The printing and distribution of the present set of questions consumed nearly three months, and it was not regarded as feasi- ble to notify by telegraph the great body of census enumerators of the exclusion of certain questions. How a Large Advertiser Regards The Star. Orrick or Wasuixcrox DaNgNHOWwER, 1115 F Sr. N.W., Wasurnetox, D.C., May 26, 1890. To The Evening Star Publishing Co., City: Gexriemex—In withdrawing my full page advertisement for a time I wish to thank you for the prominent pages you have given me, ‘ag well as for the attractive appearance of each, for I fully appreciate the fact that a successful advortisement must have its subject matter presente to the reading public in the must pleasing form, and this can only be accom- plished by the hearty co-operation of the news- paper. The vast numbers of our citizens that have read your paper during the past two weeks have seen my advertisement. A ma- jority of them have accepted my invitation and visited Riverdale Park. The phenomenal success I have had in dis- posing of lots in this subdivision I attribute to three causes—first, the wide circulation of Tae Srar calling the attention of the public to the park; second, the magnificent property iteelf, appealing to the sound judgment of all think- ing people; third, the low price and very easy terms I am offering. Iexpect to continue the daily excursions, with complimentary tickets, music, lunch, &c., but Iam convinced that the people of Wash- ington have become so thoroughly acquainted with this fact through the extensive circulation of Tue Star that further advertisement at the present time would prove useless. Riverdale Park is known to thousands and everybody knows that I am the exclusive agent for the sale of lots, Yours very respectfully, Wasu’s Daxexnower. eee An Unknown Man Found Dead.

In the Equity Court today Judge Cox granted decrees of divorce in two cases in favor of the complainants, The first was in the case of Jacops Del Bianco against Meri Del Bianco. The bill (filed by E. A. Newman) set forth the marriage to respond- eut under the name of Meri Solari in New York March 13, 1889; that they came to this city and lived together till he became con- vinoed of her infidelity and charged her with it, and she thea left him. He charges her with adultery, The second such decree was in the case of Annie H. Colambus against Louis E. Columbus, jiving the eustody of the child to complainant. this case the bill, fled by E.G. Fletcher, states that they were married at the Immacu- late Conception Church September 19, 1581; that they lived as husband and wife from the time of their marriage to January, 1884, and from March, 1885, to February, 188%, She charged habitual drankenness, cruel treatment, assaulting and threatening her and non- support 4u the divorce case of Lavinia Metzger agt.

Some people have been insisting for quite awhile that such a service is necces- sary. The company did not think so or the care would have been doing duty long before this. Now we shall have a practical demon- stration. Personally I do not think the busi- ness done will justify the service, but we are going to give it atrial, “The Ist of June falls on Sunday, 80 we will not commence until Monday night. From and after that date the silence on the avenue will be broken by the rumbie of ‘owl’ trains going each every balf hour. “All a man needs to secure a ride from one end of the route to the other,” said Mr. Hurt, “is a nickel or a ticket. No discrimination will be made on account of race, sex, previous or present condition. Lazarus and Dives can sit side by side, and if one of them happens to be slightly intoxicated the situation is an una- voidable incident, “There will be no all-night cars on 7th strect or 14th street until there is ademand for them.

Speaking to a Srax reporter today Assessor Trimble said: ‘Iam very much pleased with the success of this office “during the current month. It is one of the busy months of the year, but, owing to the epecial efficiency of some of the clerical force and extra labor on their part, which was entirely voluntary, the demands of all taxpayers have been promptly attended to. Ifany tax payer finds a 2 per cent penalty added to his tax after the 3ist of this month it will be his own fault in not apply- ing to the assessor for his bill in time to pay it without @ penalty.” BUILDING PERMITS were issued today as follows: F.

About the first week in June he disappeared, but did not take his horse and wagon. Whether he sold them or not is not known by the off- cers, who are now investigating a rumor that he was taurdered. The last time he was seen in the city was when he was at Mr, Heiskeli’s store, A BODY FOUND.

Burns lives on 1éth | street, not far from the jail, and on account of the long distance from his house to the brick yards he only goes home once a woek, BURNS’ STORY. According to his story he was ine place not far from the south end of the bridge one night last week when two men got into a dispute, During the trouble one of the men, be said, made a remark about the killing of Kearney. The other one, according to Burns’ story, re- torted: “If I did kill him you carried bis body to the river.” If the old man was really murdered tt was done in Virginia, and the authorities of Alex- andria county will have to make the investiga- tion. If the sheriff of the county makes such an investigation the police bere will lend what assisiance they can, 3 AN INVESTIGATION MADE, Magistrate Closs of Alexandria county bas | been toid of the affair and he will probably see | that the matter is investigated. If the step- children can prove the death of Kearney the estate can be diviged, otherwise the estate can- not be divided for seven years, unless Kearney appears to sign the papers. Should Burns’ suspicion prove correct and it turns out that Kearney was murdered the case will no doubt be an interesting one. The offi- cers, however, are at a loss to tind » motive for such a murder unless it was committed in o drunken brawl, as Kearney was pot known to carry much money with him, _ Real Estate Matters, E.

To the Editor of Tur Evesino Stam 1 desire to make a protest against the gong ringing on the 7th street cable cars. It seems to me entirely unnecessary, and it is, as every one must acknowledge, exceedingly unpleas- ant. It makes the street noisy and disagree- able, Before the cable cars were used it was not found necessary to ring a bell at every street crossing or when the cars started—why should it be necessary now to strike a very loud gong? The cable cars can be stopped as readily as the horse cars, and there is no more danger in their use than in the latter. TheCom- missioners prohibited the use of bells on the car horses, but now, strange as it seems, they allow this really dreadful use of go1 As there is every prospect of an extension of the cable and electric systems of strect transporta- tion there will soon be hundreds of gongs ringing all over the city on many streets unless their use is now prohibited.
