His Former Flame Goes Back on Him and He is Fined for Having a Pistol. Merry Wilson is a young colored man from ‘Va., and the pride of his heart is Alice Carter. a former resident of the same place. Fo three years he visited Alice and vainly endeavored to win her affections. Her mother left there along timie ago, and ‘about a month ago Alice followed her. Jerry could not bear to have his dear one so far away from him, and he, too, came to the capital. Dressed in his best suit of clothes he yesterday , | Went to Ebenezer Church, in East Washington, where Alice was attending the meeting of the Mterary society, and when she came out he lifted ‘his hat and made a graceful bow. Alice did not return his greeting and she also refused to discuss their love affairs and invited him to go im arrested. | Ali away, threatening to have . _ Alice had and Jerry evi- succeeded friend with her dently did not relish the iden of being fn the girl's affections by » Washington boy. When Alice threatened to “fix” him he re- ited the threat toward her and made her Rinday afternoon stroll exceedingly unpleasant. Policeman Gilbert was finally met by Alice, who complained of Jerry's conduct, and the Officer arrested him. In his vest pocket, where he could get it in case of an emergency, was a lowded revolver, and when station wax reached a ae of concealed weapons was entered wt him. The case wns called betore ey Kimball this morning und Jerry wanted to tell the story of his love affuir. He produced a batch of letters which he had received from the girl, but judge said they would show nothing about pistol and he wanted to hear nothing of their private affairs. ‘A fine of $50 or ninety days on the farm wae imposed, and Jerry went down. a “B.

WA new trale, lonving Weshington at S45 a. m., which will «top at principal stations on the Metropolitan branch, has been put into service between Washington and Shenandoah junction, carrying through cars to Roanoke, Va., and all i diate stations on the Norfolk a Tuilroud. This new train connects gton junction with train for Fred- erick, thereby providing an additional train between Washington and Frederick daily except Sunday. WASHINGTON BRANCH. ‘The early morning express heretofore leaving Washington for Philadelphia at 4:05 a. m. has been discontinued. " Passengers for Philadel- hia and New York can leave Washington at Fis0.0: m. and transfer at Camden station, Bal- timore, to the new Royal Blue line express, which will leave that city daily at 7 a. m., ar- riving at Philadelphia at 9:15 a. m. and New York at 11:55. m.

T. B. Appleget of New Jersey, but the attempt failed. The question of the admission of women has not yet come officially before the conference, but will probably be brought up today. The committee on certificates was an- nounced by the president shortly before the close of the morning session. It is composed of J. T. Murray, B. F. Duggan, John Scott, T. B Appleget, T. L. Ogburn and W. O. Strickler, This committee will handle all the certificates of those in the conference, and if any are found not in conformity with the law of the church their holders will be debarred from the privileges of the conference. Upon this law rests the fate of the Indies. ‘The last general conference of the M. P. church sent out an overture to the various annual conferences of the countwy, asking their opinion as to: the licensing of women, and the only conference which has thus far responded in the Nebraska confereuce. This conference appointed a committee on the matter, which ro- ported in favor of the innovation. Rev. Webster M. Strayer, ex-president of the Maryland conference, and Daniel Baker, lay delegate from Maryland, offered a resolution, which was adopted by the conference, to send to the Methodist Episcopal conference at Neb., a telegram of Christian greeting, following mesenge was sent: “Accept Christian greeting of general confer- ence of the Methodist Protestant ‘church, in session at Westminster, Md. Read Psalm exxxiii.”” A number of papers ting various changes in the discipline were submitted to the conference, but on a motion of Rev. John Scott of Pittsburg they were referred to the. commit- tee on revision, and at a later part of this ses- sion will be acted upon by the conference. Papers on the changes of boundaries in the various annual conferences were reported to the committee on boundaries, to be discussed later by the conferen: ‘The paper on ‘‘Arbitration Between Nations Instead of War,” which was sent up to this con- ference by the iast Maryland conferenée, which met at Pocomoke City, was pffered to the gen- eral conference today by Rey. Dr. L. W. Bates, but without being read it was referred to the committee on communications.

Almost Impossible to Estimate the Damage Done by the Recent Floods, It in almost impossible to give a true estimate of the losses by the floods in the Mississippi bottoms immediately tributary to St. Louis, but they will rexch far into the millions, as last night's rough cutimate showed. Flood reports from the principal points of the flooded district, now that the water is falling, are of a more en- couraging character, No new stories of damage and Jose are com- ing in, and the people are, as rapidly as the water will permit, secking their homes. The river was last night « fraction over a foot below its highest point und stil falling. ———~+e+- The President's Trip to Rochester. Repreventutive Greenleaf of Rochester, N. Y., who has hud charge of the preparations for the trip of President Hurrixon to that city to take part in the exercises of Memorial day, has com- pleted the arrangements, The party will travel by special train over the Northern Central railroxd 28, ut 7a.m. und reaching Rochester at 7 p.m. An observation car will be uttached to the train, and from the platform thns provided the Presi- dent may address his fellow citizens at any or allof the points en ronte at which the train is scheduled to top, eight or ten m all. Accompanying the President will be Secre- tary Elkins and Postmaster General Wana- maker,and powibly other members of *the cabi- net and a number of Congreskmen, comprising altogether a party of about thirty-three. The return trip will. be made either Monday night (the 30th) or Tuesday by daylight, a President Harrison may prefer. The President will make only « short address. on Memorial day. ‘The oration of the occasion. will be delivered by President Hall of Rochester University. ——- ‘The Presbyterian General Assembly. ~ The presence of the Presbyterian generales- sembly was evident in yeéterday’s pulpit an- nouncements for Portland, Oreg., and for a number of outlying towns, The churches of all the denominations were opened to the Pres- byterian preachers, but the most interest was evident at the First Presbyterian Church, where Moderator Young officiated. In spite of the fuct that it was Sunday one could hear discus- sions concerning interesting questions to come before the assemply during the next week. It appears that the Briggs case is under careful consideration before the judicial committee, of which Dr. Smith of Buffalo is the chairman. The questions to be decided by the committee relate entirely to the legal aspects of the case, not to its merits at all. It will be the attempt of the committee to present a report upon which the assembly can be united. Primarily it must deal with the question whether the ap- peal of the prosecuting committee is in order, though further recommendations may be added as to the proper disposition of the appeal. Should an appeal be admitted inal par- tier in the prosecuting committee and Dr. Briggs alone can this last contingency occasions Dr. coming. Se Bayard Taylor's O1d Home to Be Sold. Bayard Taylor's old home, about a mile from Kennet Square, Chester county, Pa., will soon be cold to the highest bidder. It was in this house that Bayard Taylor made his famous translation of “Faust,” his masterpiece, and did all his best work. He left there April 19, 1878, to represent the United States at Berlin, and never returned. His death occurred on September 19 following. ree. New Orleans Street Railway Strike. In consequence of a failure of all efforts to arbitration between the car companies and the Drivers’ Union a general strike was ordered in | New Orleans yesterday morning and all the | street car Jlines,of the cityare tied up. The} officials of the roads made another attempt to run their,cars, and at 11 o'clock traffic over the Canal and Common Canal and Clayborn and | Esplanade and Bayou bridge lines had been ree | sumed. At noon cars were running on several lines at long intervals under police protection, there being one or more policemen op each car. | ‘The president of the Car Drivers’ Union ad: dre:sed'a letter to Mayor Fitzpatrick, explain- ‘ing the cause of the trouble between the union | and car companies, in which he vays: “The | presidents of the car companies have violated | the agreement signed April 18, 1892, by di criminating against members of the union, and the union, to preserve its members, was forced | to present issue. Our demand is that the com-; panies in the future hire none but union men; also that the men who quit work on May 18, | 1892, be reinstated in their positions as drivers | and hostlers. ‘These terms being refused a gen- eral strike was ordered.” ' Jenving Wurhington on Saturday, May | 8 | half miles, was into Albany, N.

A Jate New York dispatch says there till past midnight. hours, daring which time they have had but nine hours of clear weather. Seven-tenths of the distance was unworthy the name of road, ‘on the western relays. There were some break- of extremely light wheels, not intended by mannfacturere for such ‘work, and delays also occurred where the wheelmen deserted roads, preferring to throw their wheels over the fences and take to the fields. Despite all this an average pace of ten miles an hour was | etve ave speed to Buffalo, nine and bi average 8 to nine | half miles per hour, was higher than that ma | by the eastern riders, who averaged only nine miles per hour over roads which must have been superior to the quagmires of Indiana and Ohio.

During Wednesday night over three hours were lost. This was reduced to one hour and forty-six minutes before Rochester was reched, but the renewal of the storm and the rough night ride to Albany and down the mountainous Hudyon river valley was too much to enuble the men to muintain the gain. The schedule was based on fair roads and weather, “The splendid result is undoubtedly beyond | the power of horse relays of equal length. It | proves beyond a doubt that under fair condi- tions the 1,000 miles could have been covered | by the seventy-six relays at « fiftcen-miles-an- hour gait, a total of sixt; if ee Outcome of the Chestertown Lynching. | A meeting of colored men was held in Chester- | town, Md., at which it was determined to “boy- cott” the whit® men who engaged in the recent |lynching affair.

It is quite commonly the case that in CEREBRAL CONGESTION, producing INSOMNIA, NERVOUS PROSTRATION, resulting from overmental work or much emotional disturbance, and in epilepsy (to say nothing of many cases of insanity) an excess of URIC ACID in the blood is often observed. This state appears to be altogether independent of the character of the food, for no matter how careful the physician may be in regard to the diet of his patient, the LITHEAMIC condition continues. I have tried to over- come this persistence by the use of phosphate of ammonia and other ‘80-called solvents for uric acid, but without notable effect. “Several years ago, however, I begun to treat such cases with BUF- FALO LITHIA WATER, with a result that was as astonishing to me as it was beneficial to the patient, so that now in all cases of nervous diseases under my charge in which there is an excess of URIC ACID in the blood I use fhe BUFFALO LITHIA WATER in large quantities. By this course the urine crystals on standing, the patient suffers, WATER IN CASES OF ONE DOZEN HALF-GALLON BOTTLES, the tongue becomes clean and the system is rendered muc ment which may be necessary Gout, Rheumatic G: Renal Calculi, Bright’s Disease of the Kidneys, Neuralgias, Nervous Prostration, Various Forms of Dyspepsia, &e., &c., have their origin in an excess of Uric Acid in the Blood. it gots, then, without saying that Buffalo Lithia Wetertsa powerful remedial agent in these maladies. By this I mean that I do not have the patient drink merely # tambier or two in the course of a day, but that I flood him, #0 to «peak, water, making him drink « gallon or ith the en more in the twenty-four hours. after a few days ceases to deposit uric acid morbid irritability of the patient disappears, he wandering pains in the head are abolished, more amenable to the special treat- the cure of the disease from which the “TI have tried CARBONATE OF LITHIA dissolved in water in various proportions, BUT IT CERTAINLY DOES NOT, in casex to which I refer, have the same effect as BUFFALO LITHIA WATER. “Wasuinaton, D.
