J. HL Ritchie, commission agent, Kingston, Ans- tralia, writes: “For years s confirmed sceptic as tothe merits of Proprietary medicines, I was at last converted by the use of Ayer's Cherry Pectoral. For months s bottle cf this medicine, of which I hsd come into possession through the kindness of @ friend, remained unopened tn my closet, tf] one night I was seized with a violent cold accompanied by a racking cough. Having none of my usual remedies at hand,I thought of the Cherry ' Pectoral, snd determined to give its trial. The result was truly magical, Relief came almost instantly, and after repeating the dose, certainly not more than half dozen times, I found myself choroughly cured. Sub- sequently my dauxhter was cured of a severe cough by ths use of the Cherry Pectoral. I recommend this preparation to all sufferers from throat and lung troubles” For Croup, Whooping Cough, Bronchitis, Asthma and Consumption the best rumedy is AYER'S CHERRY PECTORAL, Prepared by Dr. J.C.

Bexsixo’s Rack Tuacx, D.C., Oct. 27.—The program offered today by the Washington Jockey Club was a most interesting one. owing to the difficulty in selecting the probable win- ners in each of the five events, Up to the first race the following horses had been scratched: Syracuse, Rustic and St. Jobn in the first and Dover in the fifth. There was a pretty sti? wind blowing across the track and in the grand stand, where was gathered a large number of ladies who were mufiled in furs and warm wraps. The attendance bids fair to be greater than any previous day of this meeting. The track is considered fast. THE FIRST RACK First race, six furlongs, purse $400, of which $75 to second and €25 to third, for three-year- | olds and upward, Horses that have not won $1,250 in 1890 allowed ten pounds; if not 1,000 if not $750 twenty pounds. \e telle D'Or, 104.

When the horses were sent off for tho first race it looked as though the quiet tip on Pain- killer would be correct, for Painkiller got away first. with Watterson second. This order was kept up with the rest bunched com- ing into the stretch. At this point it looked as though the prime favorite Belle d'Or would win with case, but an unlooked for was being pushed and within a short distance from the finish Mabel forged ahead d won. But that was about all, Watterson finished second, Leontine third. Mutuais paid Straight, $10.60; place, 23.25 and $6.05. SaaS MORE AND MORE EXCITING. The Political Contest in Pennsylvania Becomes Red Hot. Special Dispatch to Tre Eventne Stan. Pumapetruta, Oct. 27.—The political con- test in Pennsylvania daily becomes more ex- citing and interesting. Republicans, demo- crats and independents alike ure putting forth their best energies in this the last woek of the gubernatorial campaign. TUE COALITION CONFIDENT. Chairmen Herr of the democratic state com- mittee and Mapes of the independent republi- can comunittee talk as sanguinely of the strug- gle toduy as they havo done at any time during the past month. The former laughs when any doubts are expressed as tothe result, He declares that Pattison will be elected governor, and adds, “Nothing can stop it, Iam amazed with the situation,” Mapes talks a littie more cautiously, While he expresses confidence as to the outcome of the battle he does not indulge in extravagance of expression, When asked the direct question asto what he thinks of the situation ho an- swered: “I think there is no doubt of Pattison's election.” CHAIRMAN ANDREWS NOT UNEASY, Chairman Andrews of the republican com- mittee was more confident in conversation to- day than at any time since the opening of the campaign, He said in speaking of the situa- tion: “We are going to elect the whole republican ticket trom Delamater down. ‘There is no mistake about that. dust remem- cee the night of the election what I have said.” While Andrews thus delivers himself there are to be met with many republicans who do not share with him in such confidence. They are nervous and fear defeat, ‘This class ig lnrgely made up of those who are termed stalwarts who never seratch their ticket, and who will goto the polls on Tuesday and vote for every candidate on the republican ticket. Quite a number of republicans entertain the notion the campaign has been badly managed, and that defeat, if it comes, will be largely due to blunders, SENATOR QUAY BLAMED. Quietly they lay the blame upon Senator Quay, who named Androws two years ago. When Congress adjourned and the Senator came to Philadelphia it is said he at once took in the situation and saw that something must be done and that right away. Then Collector Cooper, who was “turned down” for the Crawford county man, was brought in to | help the chairman. Cooper had managed | cight campaigns, he knew all the workers throughout the state aud was therefore re- garded by Quay and others as the man for the time. REPUBLICANS NOW AGGRESSIVE. Since then a great change has been wrought. The party has assumed an aggres- sive position instead of standing on the ELL’S FUNERAL Impressive Services at the Metropolitan Church—A Large Attendance. ‘The faneral of the late Judge Wm. B. Snell, for eighteen years the judge of the Police Court of the District, took place this afternoon from the Metropolitan M.E. Church, corner of 43¢ and C streets, and there was a very large attendance. Prior to the removal of the remains from the residence on K street near 9th, brief services were held there and the cortege proceeded to ‘the church, where the casket was placed in front of the platform, Mr. W. R. Speare being the director. The face of the deceased bore an erpression that was very lifelike and nat- ural, The body was clothed in a suit of black and in the lapel of the coat was a Grand Army button, IMPRESSIVE REMARKS, After the reading of appropriate selections of Scripture by Dr. Domer, Rev. Drs, Bartlett, Sunderland, Domer and Corey made appro- priate remarks in which the effable, con- scientious and forgiving disposition of deceased were referred to, as also his services as a soldier in time f need, his hones' and sincerity as a Christian, his devotion to his church, in which he was a shining light, and his character in bestowing charity to the bhun- gry and the needy. At the conclusion of the Services the remains were borne to the Balti- more and Potomac depot and placed in the 3:15 train to be taken to Waterville, Me., for inter- ment, Mrs. Snell and her daughter and Dr. ‘Thayer, the son-in-law, accompanying them.

A dispatch from Bloomington, Ill, says: “In reply to a lotter addressed to Postmaster Gen- eral Wanamaker by a merchant of this city who is conducting a guessing contest, asking whether the new law which excludes news- papers containing lottery advertisements ap- plies to such guessing contest, Attorney Gen- eral Miller states that advertisements of such contests may ior the time being be permitted to appear in newspapers.” The Attorney General was shown this dis- patch this afternoon by a Sran reporter and remarked: “I have said nothing about the matter id am not ready to express any opinion.” FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL, New York Stock Market.

Tho independents are the unknown quantity. The republicans do not know how many there are throughout the state. The democratic leaders declare the break will be immense and that Pattison will carry off the honor by a sur- prisingly large majority. THE SIGNIFICANT FEATURE of the campaign is that tho republican mano- gers as yet donot venture to make predictions as to majorities, They are silent as to figures, ‘The fight is against Quay and it remains to be seen how many will bolt Delamater for Patti- son to down the Senator. —_.

Ielaud avenue mort The members of the Rock Creek Park com- mission are this afternoon continuing their ex- plorations in the region where the park is to be laid out, They meet at Gen. Boynton’s office at 3:30 o'clock and proceed from there to the park. The ground to be explored today is the narrow strip lying between the Zoolog- ical Park and the Broad Branch road. Between these points the law restricts the width of the park to 1,200 feet. The commission will walk through this tractand determine on the lines that in its judgment should form the bounds of the park here. Gen. Boynton said to a Stan reporter this afternoon that he expected the commis- sion would eo far complete its labors this week as to be able to lay down exterior lines of the park by Saturday. “Those government employes who wish to contribute have a perfect right to do so, but it is part of the law that no government em- ploye who does not wish to do so shall be dis- criminated against, and the commission will watch with a jealous eye any attempt to violate the provisions of this act and rule, I am glad to have this opportunity to make public for the in- | formation of all clerks and others the fact that they have, as I firmly believe, nothing to fear if they refuse to contribute.” As for my own | personal feeling, I regard the circular of the Ohio executive committee as an outrage. Iam as anxious as any one can be for the su cess republican party in Ohio and for the re-election of Maj. McKinley in particular, but the letter quoted as coming from the Ohio committee and sent to the gov- ernment employes in this city can only be ferment at Lock Cr Lives respect! uly any SMOTHERS.

If this is addressed to men in the classified service it deliberately falsifies the facts. No committce has the right to ad- dress any goverhment cmploye as a republican oftice holder. MERIT AND POLITICAL INFLUENCE. “The Ohio republicans in the classified afternoon, Capt. Rossel said: “No, I caunot say that this narrow portion of the park is the most | beautiful. The country is for the most part wild. Between Klingle Ford and the military road the country along the creck is very wild. while from the military road to the District line the country is rolling. So, you see, we will have both kinds of country and the contrast will be one of the beauties of the park.” Aud ben My darlin a r a, Fawnre Smaw.

Government clerks in the classitied service most emphatically are not enjoying ‘the emoluments of office’ be- cause of the ‘Inbor’ of any political party in any state. They owe their positions to their own honest endcavor and merit. “They owe nothing to politicians, and it is an outrage to attempt to coerce them directly or indirectly into making contributions out of aa slender salaries if they are reluctant to 10 80. work than at any other period of the year. The first session of the board will be held in the lecture room of Metropolitan M. E. Church on Thursday morning at 10 o'clock. ‘There will be two or three sessions each day. The meetings are necessarily private, for the bishops review the work of the church for the previous six months and make plans for the future, Each bishop reports on his labors and makes such recommendations as he secs fit.
