s It's sometimes said patent medicines are for the igno- rant. The doctors foster this idea. “The people,” we're told, “are mostly ignorant when it comes to medical science.” Suppose they are! What a sick man needs is not knowl- edge, but a cure, and the medi- cine that cures is the medicine for the sick. Dr. Pierce’s Golden Med- ical Discovery cures the “do believes” and the “don't be- lieves.” There’s no hesitance about it, no “if” nor “ possi- bly.” | It says—“I can cure you, only do as I direct.” Perhaps it fails occasionally.

Staff Correspondence of The Evening Star. ‘Cuartaxooea, TEXS., March 11, 1891. JECRETARY PROCTOR AND PARTY, WHO | \ left Washington Monday afternoon for Chattanooga to visit the Chickamauga Park, | did not arrive at their destination until neariy | midnight Tuesday, but the journey was not at all tedions, and, in fact, everybody seemed to have a good time. The train consisted of the Secretary of War's cur and three Pullman | slecpers, one of which was occupied by the | Indies, another by the newspaper men, with a sprinkling of army officers, and the third by Congressmen and other invited guests unac- companied by ladies. There was a good deal of visiting back and forth, as it was a vestibule train, and everybody was well acquainted before the end of the journey was reached. At | Roanoke, Va., where a stop was made for break- | fast, the newspaper contingent was heartily greeted by Messrs. Brown and Grandy, two | former Washington newspaper boys, who are | now running the Roanoke Times. They are | enthusiastic over the wonderful growth | of their thriving town. At Bristol, half of which is in Virginia and the other aif in Tennemee, the party dined, and here the first spcech-making of the trip was encountered. Just as Secretary Proctor had | | commenced to carve hir railway beetstenk | delegation of young ladies and gentlemen, th | former from Sullin's Female College and the latter from King’s College, both located at | Bristol, filed into the crowded dining room bearing floral offerings. ‘The Secretary suc- | | upon Senator Manderson.

All the afternoon as the train sped along to- wards the Tennessee valley the attention of the travelers was attracted by the signs of growth and development of the mineral region, and this fact served as a subject for the speech makers for the rest of the journey. At Knoxville the party was met by a crowd of citizens, who, after su} per, stood upon the platform and listened to speeches glowing with tributes of praise for the pr ¥ and evidences ofthrift and industry of people of East Tennessee. Asthe train moved the off and just as the Secretary of War had seated himself for a visit with the newspaper men, Mr. E. B. Wight rushed in breathless and striking attitnde before the Sec- Bi fellows are ail tired out acting'asaclaque for you gentlemen in the frontcar. Dunnell and I worked hke every- thing in that crowd. trying to work up some enthusiasm. We circulated about. telling them | whom to call upon. But it was hard work. When I called Proctor some big fellow turned round and said, ‘Who in the devil is he? and whep we suggested Manderson they called for Andergon.” The Secretary laughed heartily and invited the claquers into the rear car 80 that they might be refreshed before being again upon. ‘WAR REMINISGENCES. War stories were of course in order, and Gen. Boynton, who, through the whole trip, looked after the welfare of the correspondents with unflagging zeal,explained and re-explained to his inquiring confreres all the intricate movements of the army of the Cum- berland at Chickamauga. Gen. hign, jow tle skies, (and sometimes mn per- formed the same for the occupants of the other cars. reminiscences of the battle of Chickamauga were doubly interesting in view of the approaching visit to the historic battle ground, and every one who participated in the battle had an interested knot of listeners when he recalled any of the experiences of that period or could relate any story of the promi- nent generals who fought there. HOW HE FIRST NET ORANT. “{wason Thomas’ staff at the time,” said one, “and after the battle of Chickamauga, when our army lay idle for nearly two months at Chattanooga, waiting for reinforcements and fupplies, we were short of everrthing. “Gen. ‘Thomas bad established himself in » comfort- able house, but there was nothing in it but the farniture.’ One rainy, chilly day my ‘striker’ had succeeded in getting » small supply of coal or screenings, or something that would burn, and I was enjoying the warmth, « novel and a pipe, with my heels on the mantel piece.

Grant, turning to him, said: ‘I guess youand Tare getting too old’ to take ours straight, Taomas, so young man, me, ‘you may make us a toddy and make it hot.” He got it, and it was hot. After enjoy- ing it he and Gen. Thomas withdrew to pre- re their plans for the battles of Lookout Mountain end Missionary Ridge.” THE SECRETARY'S NEW AID. One of the best satisfied members of the ex- was Capt. Thos. M. Woodraff, who had only two days before starting received his motion to « captainey and af the same time fe- ceived telegraphic summons at St. Paul, where he waa any aid! to Gen. Ruger, to report for duty ington immediately. Upon his arrival in Washi he learned that” he ad been selected for duty as military secretary to thy Secretary of War and his first assignnient was to accompany bis chief to Chattan and southern army posts. It was particular fratitging to him because he was ‘chosen on ficiency record only, never beving met the Secretary. There was no favoritism in the selection. Capt. Woodruff is a Washington boy, having been appointed to West Point after j finishing school wt the Emerson institute. ‘THE WEATHER, day Tuesday it was clear and pleasant and hoy were for a fair day for the visit to emcesice Winnie coaes eae ail the umb: overshoes and waterproofs.

THE PARK. The park, for which Congress has made lib- erat appropriations, ta to take in the battle- fields of Chickamauga and Missionary Ridge and bout twelve miles in extent, extending most of the way along the state road. The country today is almost exactly as it was dur- ing the waz, according to the testimony of those who took part in the battles. A few additional fences and a goodly growth of underbrush are the only changes. It is the intention to retain the battle grounds in this condition for the future and this is the object of establishing the park, (Col. 8. ©.

Mr. Parnell, yesterday afternoon, made pub- lie his long expected manifesto to the people of America. The full text of the document House or Commons, Friday, March 13. To the Irish People of America: Fellow Countrymen--In 1880 and subsequent years you assisted me powerfully by your influ- ence tipon American public opinion and with | Your generous financial rupport to create the great movement of the land leagues. Without Your aid, so freely given and so constantly maintained. Ireland could not for one mo- ment have made head against her oppressors, still less could she have attained the singular position of power and the promise of success which she occupied during the last five years. At the instant when victory seemed near and certain the hasty and meddlesome interferences of English politicians in the complex organiza- tion of our party, and a movement aided by a sudden panic among some young raw recruita, eagerly seconded by a few malontents and of- fice seekers and envious persons who crept into | our ranks, temporarily destroyed the unity of our forces and sapped the independence of many Irish representatives. It now becomes my task to restore this unity and reconstruct our ‘movement, lopping off all unsound materials, tuking effectual precautions against the admission in the future into our army of any weak, treacherous, self-secking ele- ments. Fortune ins unveiled this donger and given space for thix reconstruction before the general election, and the disclosure has | rought about a realization of the insufficiency of Mr. Gludstone’s proposed solution of the situation to secure the legitimate liberty, hap piness and prosperity of your brothers and isters in Ireland. ‘This disclosure was timely ‘and all-important. * The delegates, who, at my request, are now crossing the ocean to your shoresare well quali- fied with experience, ability, and patriotism to fully explain and defend my position, which all whoare sound, courageous und reliable at home havenssumed with me at this crisis. Icom- mend them to your hospitality and {am confi- dent that you will extend to them the most favorable recepti >a and hearing. They are ench and all well-tried soldiers, who have cons‘antly distinguished themselves in our war agains? coercion and British misrule, who, despite intimidation and influences of the most unscrupulous and far-reaching character, have bravely defended me during these dark and trying moments. With « confidence even greater than in 1880, I appeal to you once more to assist me in quell ing this mutiny and disloyalty to Ireland, to help me in securing a really independent par- liamentary ‘party so that we may make one more, even though it be our very last, effort to win freedom and prosperity for our nation by constitutional means, Your faithful servant, Cuaates Stewart PaRXeLt. as aaa THE NEW CABLE ROAD. President Hurt Wants the Water Mains Along the Route Changed. Several days ago President Henry Hurt of the Washington and Georgetown Railroad Com- pany wrote aletter to the Commissioners re- questing that the water pipes along the lines of the company's tracks on Pennsylvania avenue and Ith street be changed where necessary. to accommodate the new cable construction: Capt. Lusk has examined the request carefally and today recommended that all needful changes to the water pipes be made on 14th street extended between Florida avenue and Park street as soon as prac- able in order to prepare the street for the construction of the cable conduits of the Washington and Georgetown Railroad Com- pany.

PALMER—HE 18 FOR THE FARMERS’ ALLIANCE AS LONG as IT RENAINS WITHIN THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY. “This nation is going to be proud of its world’s fair.” said Representative MeCreary of Kentucky to a Stan reporter. “Tho men who are in charge of that great exposition thoroughly understand their work. Everything connected with the management is moving along smoothly and there is no reason why we should expect anything but harmony and success. In my mind there is no question as to the fesnlt. The best available talent has been secnred, there is plenty of time, and we will have the benofit of other rations’ experiences.

PALMER'S ELECTION. “Do I know John M. Palmer? Intimately. His election as Senator was in perfect uecord with the fitness of things political, and it should have taken place long ago. He is a strong, clean democrat, aman I am proud to know as my friend. My aequaintance with him is not of recent origin. ring the war he was in command of the Union forces in Louisville, and he ruled with great force, caring not whom he hurt: that statement by way of introduction. In 1876 I was governor of Kentucky, and, un- less my memory fails. me, th election of Tilden to the prosidency. Especially anxious were we as to the states of Louisiana and South Carolina. Hewitt was chairman of the democratic national committee, and in response to telegrams from him a lurge-num- ber of the more prominont democrats assem- | bled at New Orleans for the purpose of doing everything in our power to secure a fair count. | John M. Palmer was then governor of the state of Illinois, and I had the honor of presenting him to an immense audience in front of the Gult House, Gov. Palmer being then en route to | New Orleans. He. was received with great enthusiam, and I have no doubt that he was very mach surprised. In the course of his speech he referred to the fact that but eleven years previous there were many men in Louis- ¥ille who would rather have shot him than heard him speak. He expressed his delight at the change of sentiment that was 80 apparent, and in that connection said he could under- stand it, for the man who cleven years before had returned to Kentucky from ‘the disinte- grated cause of the confederacy—not knowing whether he would remain in Kentucky or not— was now their governor. ‘That reference to myself was accurate and pleasing. Senator Pal- mer has thousands of friends in Kentucky to- day, but he would have been a bold prophet who would have so predicted twenty-five years ago. The Farmers’ Alliance representatives did a good thing when they made Palmer's election sure.” “Is the alliance strong in Kentucky?” THE FARMERS’ ALLIANCE IN KENTUCKY. “It is,” replied the governor, “aud very prop- erly so. Isee no reason why it should not be. ‘The farmers are our mainstay. They pay more taxes than any other class and cast more votes. In time of peace they contribute greatly to the general wellare, and in time of war we draw on them more heavily than any other class. Tam glad to see the agriculturists taking the posi- tion that belongs to them; they huve been too long in the rear. Personally my interests are identical with theirs, for I own and operate several farms in my'state. ‘There is no valid reuson why the alliance and myself should dis- agree. My congressional record pleases them. Tmade speeches in the House against trusts and subsidies, in favor of a reduced tariff, for free coinage and in advocacy of the establish- | ment of the Departmen‘ of Agriculture. ‘There was nothing more they could desire, so I suf- | fered no inconvenience when the questions of | renomination and re-election came up. The farmers were satisfied.” ~‘fhe alliance in Kentucky has not then de- veloped into a third party?” “No; why should it? The alliance is working within the lines of the democratic party; a very sensible procedure. An independent organiza- "would be of no advantage to the farmers, and they see that very clearly. I am for the alliance so long as it remains within the demo- cratic fold. + INCREASE OF FORCE. Changes Made in the Interior Department by the Last Appropriation Bill. A statement has been prepared by Mr. Clarence G. Allen of the Interior Department showing the changes in the number and salaries of the employes of the department and its bureaus made by the new ap-| propriation bill. He finds that the net increase in the number of employes as compared witk last year will be twenty-four. An additional law clerk, salary 22,000, is pro- vided for the office of the assistant attorney general and a 1,600 clerk. The salary of the chief clerk of ‘the general land office is increased from €2,250 to 22,500. The Indian office gets the following clerks: Two clerks of the $1,600 grade, two clerks at $1,400, two clerks wt $1,200, one female messenger $840. ‘Twenty-five hundred dollars is made immedi- ately available for the employment of per diem clerks at a salary not excecding #2 per day. In the patent office the following new employes are authorized: One law clerk at %2,000; two principal examiners at #2,500 each; two first assistants at $1,800 euch: three second assistants at $1,600 each; two third assistants at $1,400 each; two fourth assistants at 31,200 each; one clerk at 21,800; two clerks at $1,600; two clerks at €1,400. The bureau of education gets a clerk at £1,400. In the other bureaus no changes were authorized. These provisions will go into effect July 1. js aa Oee THE NEW ASSESSORS. ‘They Will Have to Wait for Payment Until ‘Congress Comes to Their Relief. Assessor Trimble does not think that the failure of the enrolling clerk to include the item of $6,000 in the appropriation bill to pay changing the water pipes is because the com- yep denies to commence work on this street te BA SES CONCERNING WATER RENTS. Attorney Thomas Holds That the Commis- sioners Cannot Kemit Water Rents. Several days ago Tux Stan called attention to an interesting case which was sent tc the attorney for his opinion. It was a case concerning water rents and was substantially as follows: A party refused to pay his water rent and the same went on until after the beginning of the new water year, when the water was turned off. It in one of the regulations of the water for the contingent expenses of the new board of assessors will embarrass that body to any great extent. As yet the Commissioners have not discussed the matter, but it is theirintention to have introduced as’ soon as Congress con- venes a joint resolution providing for the amount left out and urge its immediate pas- sage. In conversation with a Stan reporter this morning on the subject Mr. Trimble said: “Tho assessors will have to get along the best way they can until Congress comes to rescue. Of course, you know that at first not much will be done, aé all of their time must necessarily be employed in familiarizing themselves with their new duties, as well as the price of land about the city. For this, of course, theyewill need stationery. &e., and the only way I can see is for them to’ bor- row from the Commissioners. Of couree they will ment that no water shall be turned on until all water rents have been As the water not turned off until after the beginning of The "year the water department insite wy year.

Baltimore and Ohio C, SATURDAY, MARCH 14, 1 pact For some time the Commissioners have been engaged in amending the bnilding regulations. The changes which they propose making is to strike out everything heretofore issued as special permits and iseued at the discretion of the Commissioners. General Inspector Beggs has written a letter to the Commissioners, stating that he under- stands the building regulations are being re- vised. He says that in view of this he recom- mends that a clause be inserted requiring builders or owners, of houses built to restore the sidewalks on their frontages where they are pai bricks or other paving. He says it is frequently the case that in front of one ora number of houses completed the brick paving is left in and dangerous condition and he does not think that the fund for current repuirs should meet this expense, as the partiey causing th damage to the sidewalks shoul i to make them good. compelling this he recommends that a dep: in each cise be required. —— GOVERNMENT. DISTRICT ‘MUST PAY FOR IT THEMSELVES. In response to‘an’ applicatior‘recently made for placing « firc-alarm box at the mail-bag repair shop, 479 C street northwest, Superm- tendent Miles, to whom the matter was referred, states ina lettor to the Commissioners today that “he has mde a careful forecast | of @ expenses of the department during the remaining” monthe of the present fiscal year, which,added to the several sums ex- pended, will only leave a balance of #166. The purchase of a fire-alarm box costs $125, and Superintendent Miles does not think it would be judicious or advisable for the District to in- cur the oxpense, and suggests that the Post Otice Department might purchase the box from its own funds, a6 commission did. PRICES TO BE PAID YOR CEMENT. The Commissioners today ordered that in settling contracts for construction of sewers under bids opened July 31, 1890, and January 24, 1891, the price charged for Portland cement shall be at the rate of £3.04 per barrel and for natural cement at the rate of 1.20 per barrel. For contracts under bids opened on October 4, 1890, the price charged for cement shall be ‘¥1.20 per barrel. THEIR ACT WAS LAWFUL. Recently the Commissioners wrate a letter to the attorney calling for an opinion on the ques- tion whether there was authority of law for in- creasing the number of scalers of weights and | measures, as was done by them on the 3ist of October, 1889. Mr. 8. T. Thomas, the assistant attorney, rendered the opinion today, in which he held | that as the change did not increase the num- | ber from those originally provided for, namely three, which were later consolidated into one, it was perfectly competent for them to do so. HE MUST PROCEED AGAINST THE OWNER. Recently the Commissioners received a com- | plaint from Dr. Thomas O. Hills to the effect that after every rain the sidewalk adjoining his house on New York ayenue is covered with mud. Assistant Attorney Thomas, to whom the question was referred, says that the matter can be udjusted by sweuring out a warrant against the lot owner from whose property the deposits come.

Jake Kilrain of Baltimore and George God- frey (colored) of Boston met in a finish fight at the California Athletic Club in San Francisco last night for a $5,000 trophy. ° Kilrain. who had been trained by Muldoon, was in fine form, and won in the forty-foarth round. The bet- ting ranged fcom $100 to $60, to $100,to $85 in Kilrain’s favor. Godfrey had also trained as- siduously for the meeting, and much of the difference in the odds placed on the men was due solely to the fact that Kilrain’s backers were more numerous. Kilrain entered the ring, followed closely by Godfrey. Kilrain was seconded by Muldoon and Jim Hall, the Australian, with Ernest Roober as bottle holder. Godfrey's seconds were Frank Steele and the latter's brother, Jack. while Poter Jackson officiated as bottle older. Kilrain weighed about 192; Godfrey 174. Time was called at 9:88. Godfre: eeeded in eluding many of Kilrain's heavy blows in the early part of the fight, but about the fifteenth round Godfrey n to get dazed. He kept pluckily at it until the forty-fourth round, when he was knocked ont. RA tn cae So MR. CHAMBERLAIN WILL ACT.

Loxpox, March 14.—The Post thinks it will require deeds rather than words to open the purse of the American housemaid to Parnell. When he is shown to be atill dictator of elec- toral Ireland he may succeed in getting money from Irish-Americans, but for the purpose of faction fighting his delegates are not likely to secure much assistance. The Times says that Parnell does not deign to argue with the mutineers, but claims the allegiance of the Irish in America as his due, which no honest man would think of dis puting. The Standard sqys that Parnell’s claim that he is the sole maker of the national movement is pure fiction.

Baron Dickson Awaiting the Australian Con- tribution. From the London Times. The expedition for the exploration of the antarctic regions, which was to have been un- dertaken at the joint expense of the Australa~ sian colonies and Baron Oscar Dickson of Goth- enburg, Sweden, seems to be hanging fire. Baron Dickson, who is in London at present, naturally expresses some surprise at the con- duct of the Australasian Geographical Society, which originally approached him with refer- ence to the undertuking. The only condition which he required was that Australia should contribute £5,000 and he would do all else that was necessary. He estimates that for a suit- able expedition, even on a comparatively small scale, something like £15,000 would be wanted. ‘Two of the powerful Norwegian sealing ves- sela, specially constructed for ice navigation, could be purchased for £7,000. A complete ; | equipment of scientific instruments would obably cost £1,000, but Baron Dickson be- ves that such an equipment would be will- ingly supplied by the Swedish government. At least one of the ships would have to be far- nished with provisions and other supplies for two years in case of accident, while the equip- ment of the sepond ship, the payment of crews and other expenses would not leave a large bal- ance ont of the remaining £8,000. Baron Dick- son would contribute £5,000, and would take upon himself the responsibility of obtaining the remainder. The bulk of ieves. he could obtain in Sweden and Norway, though he might give the Royal G cal “Society ait opportunity of contributing if it cared to do #0. Atal events, if the Australians will find the moderate sum of £5,000 Baron Dickson is willing to be responsible for the balance Although Baron Nordenskjold has made uy his mind to go on no more adventurous expedi- tions, yet his objections have been overcome, and he is willing to undertakes the leadership of this expedition and take with him his son, who has proved himself of the right metal in a re- cent journey to Spitzbergen. “With Baron Nor- tdenskjold a8 leader, success might almost be said to be assured. ‘The plan was to send one ship as far south as le, say to the neigh- borhood of Mount Erebus. ' There the expedi- tion would spend a whole year, making regular observations and carrying out explorations as far as practicable. The second ship would take up its station at the island of South Georgia, there to be ready for any emergency. Baron Dickson bas thus made every arrange- ment possible, so far as he is concerned, but there is no sign of the promised £5,000 from Australia. There have meetings in Mel- bourne and elsewhere, the papers have written stirring articles on the proposed expedition, Lord Carri did his ‘best to recommend it to the colonists, but so far nothing more sub- stantial than words has been forthcoming. ‘True. a bazaar or a ball has been talked of, per- haps has taken place, in order to raise the funds—surely a last bumilitating refuge for a wealthy country like Australia.
