MILLIONAIRES’ MONEY. STRONG NERVES REQUIRED IN THE TERRIBLE STRUGGLE. Thousands Break Down Completely—Cols. Hain and Potter Tell of the EMeets of Ex- citement—How Thev Are Able te Withstand the Straisn of Wall Street, “I have just come up from Wall street and I feel nearly dead.” ‘The speaker looked it. He was a broker who had Inst passed through an exciting day with an ex- cited market, says the New York “World,” and ‘the lines on his face and the drawn corners of his stimulants, I wasdetermined im my capacity as @ reporter for the press to investigate Wall street,—not with reference to ite monetary wealth, but tte physical health. I noted a very general tendency on the street to do away with stimulants, which only have | temporary effect, and employ instead something which builds ap and acts as a real food for the nerves. Here ls what some prominent men said to me: Col. G. P. Potter, vice president of the National Mutual Insurance Company, on hearing the object of my visit, spoke of the terrible strain he bad undergone in the management of a highly important business. “My trouble.” he sald, ‘has been chronic constipation and insomnia. One is bad enough; doth horrible. Hearingof Paine’s celery Compound I thought that it might ft my case, so T Went toa drug store and bought two bottles. I'm On the second bottle now, and deriving much good from it. The ‘componnd' ts giving me sleep. Tl Persist in its use and even hope for better results than already attained.” 1 next canted on Mr. William P. Green, who is | Secretary of the American Bankers’ Association, Who favored me with the following remarkable statement: “Having done a great deal of railway traveling I mpletely run down and knocked out. My curiosity was aroused by what I heard of Paine’s celery compound and I resolved to test It. It acted far beyond my expectations and gave me Fest at night, a good appetite during the day, and a cheerfal good feeling all the time. The Idea oc- curred ty me to mention its good effects to some friends I dia s0, bat almost all of them knew about it. This is true particularly of President Van Allen of the National Bank of albany and others.” Col. F. Hain is manager of the tan Ele Yaied Railway. The colonel is a cautious man, Very gautious, but he was very outspoken when he said, inthe course of an interview: “I have used Paine’s celery compound and after a trial I say emphatically, it's good. You may infer wy opinion of it from this circumstance: I earnestly advised my brother in Reading, Pa, touse it. He and I suffered alike from Insomnia, headaches and nerv- Ousnesa. He did use it and I know it helped him.” Mr. R. W. Peters holds the responsible position of chairman or executive oMcer in charge of the members of the Consolidated Petroleum, Mining | and Stock Exchange. He said: “Paine’s celery com- pound isthe most charming remedy that I ever used. If it reduces my ftesn as tt did for Mayor Gilroy Tl land it evem louder. It regulates one delightfully.” Mr. JT. Anyou, who ts well known in the vicin- ity of Wall street, said: “The hard mental strain to which I am subjected tells upon me. Tam mach brignter today from the use of Paine’s celery com- pound. This remedy bears a fine character, Ias- sure you, in many quarters.” It cam be seen from the above that notwithstand- ing that great strain that necessarily falls upon the shoulders of those men who conduct large affairs, they may be, indeed are, able to withstand the strains, preserve the health and prolong the life. ‘The great discovery of which these men speak is not a cheap nervine, sarsaparilla, or commonplace medicine, Duta discovery made by the late Prof. Phelps of Dartmouth College, and stands im- measurably superior to any other blood, brain or nerve builder known to the present day. acts gently on the stomach. ver y's pleasant laxative, “This driak ts Sade from bere and is" prepared 1 ‘caaily tea it iscalled er ee LANES MEDICINE.

BILLIARDISTS STIRRED UP. A Shot at » Pool Tournament Sets Experts Guessing. During the pool tournament held at the Mer- cantile Club, corner of Pacu and Fayette streets, | ve the Baltimore American, a shot Mr. L. Stern, one of the contest- ants in the first series, the final decision upon which has not only caused several hundred dol- lars to be wagered, but has caused quite a con- troversy between expert pool and billiard | players here and in New York. The manner of the shot was this: After the balls were broken | Mr. Stern called a “safety” shot, In the roll he missed the object ball. The cue ball continued | to the cushion, however, rebounded, struck two | more object balls and again hit a cushion. The | rule on “‘scrateh” hits is as follows: “After the opening stroke, each player must | either pocket a ball or make at least one object | ball or the cue ball; after contact with an ob- | ject strike a ‘cushion, under penalty of | forfeiture of one ball.” Mr. Gustavus Goodman, the refer that Mr. Stern had made a “‘scrateh’ is protest was offered, and Mr. M. Water- man, who was in New York at the time, was de- cided upon as a final referee, who should make his decision on Saturday night. In the mea time several hundred dollars were wagered by the members on the result of the decision and | some few made it known that they had com- | manicated with the Brunswick-Balk-Collender | Company of New York for an expression of opinion. On Saturday night. Mr. Waterman returned to the city from New York and de- cided that Mr. Stern had made a “fair” shot. ‘Then a paper was produced bearing the official head and stamp of the Brunswick-Balk-Col- lender Company, stating that the shot in ques- tion was a “scratch.” Another controversy here arose and more money wagered. Mr. York on the following Monday, and Brunswick-Balk-Collender Company, and the members of the firm denied ever receiving any communication from Baltimore or sending one there: and, moreover, above the firm's signa- ture, decided that Mr. Stern had made a “fait shot. Not satisfied with that, Mr. Waterman visited Marcus Daly's famous bilhard parlor and received the same opinions from Daly. Leonard (the champion pool player of the world), Sextoms (the billiard expert), and Humphrey, who wrote the recognized book of Tules on pool. The experts in the city were divided in opinions as to the shot being fair or ascratch. Pickett Sues for Salary. Jobn T. Pickett, Baltimore's former second baseman, has sued the Baltimore club for bal- ance due him in salary for Inst season. He re- reported for duty March 27 last, and was with the club until June 1, 1892. He received in all $1,214.28, and sues for the difference be- tween that amount and $3,000, claiming he was entitied to his whole year’s salary. Rich & Bryan. counsel for the club, called Manager Edward Hanlon, who testified that Pickett was discharged because he did not possess the rea- sonable amount of skill which ought to be pos- sessed by base ball players: that he, Pickett, was slow, and couldn't throw fast enough’ and couldn't cover enough ground to make him an effective player. ¥.

It was shown that the club was regularly objects es set forth in the papers were social intercourse and literary improvement. The principal improvement as shown in the evidence was in card playing, as the only thing of a lit nature found in the room were pers an Tibrary there, and the furniture consisted chiefly of card tables and chairs. THE “DBAW DOWN” PAID THE EXPENSES. ‘Mr. Wilson told the court of the toll or draw down and frankly admitted that the money therefrom went for expenses, for such things as rent, drinks and lunches, and it was from that fund that he got his pay. Judge McComas held that if the club was a oue thing and the real object was card playing tor a money consideration there was certainly a violation of the law. In the case on trial the judge referred to card playing as the principal feature of the club, and if such was done, if gambling was carried on under the cover of a charter, then the charter plays no part whatever inthe case. Then again he said that where such places were conducted, where the rooms were fitted up for card playing and all the mem- bers were known as poker players, the game was ee pure and simple. Judge McComas referred to the provisions in the act that the law be construed liberally in order to prevent the evil intended. ‘Mr. Wilson was found guilty, but sentence was not imposed. NOTIFYING THE CLUB ROOMS. As soon as the decision was rendered Lieut. Amiss; in whose precinct the club rooms were located, instructed his men to report all such clubs in the precinct, and thus far twenty-one clubs have been reported. Lieut. Amiss is now visiting the club rooms and notifying the members and officers of the court’s decision and advising them that the; had better shut down. Half a dozen clul have closed their doors, and it is likely that others will soon follow suit. When due notice has been given of the court's decision the po- lice will begin a series of raids on those who refused to adopt the suggestion or heed the warning. District Attorney Birney is also interested in the gambling business, and he intends to press this character of cases to trial and will give the officers all the assistance he can in their efforts ALONG THE WHARVES.

As the result of an editorial suggestion by the Watertown Times the Lincoln League, the lending republican organization of Watertown, N.Y., and the county of Jefferson, held a meet- ing last night, at which a movement was started which it is intended will extend to all parts of the country. The idea is to start a subscrip- tion in which the amount will be limited to one dollar, the fund thus created to be given to Gov. McKinley of Ohio as testimonial for services to the republican party as uu expren- sion of sympathy in his financial affliction and as a provision against his threatened retirement from political life in order to retrieve his for- tunes in business. ©.

Immense Exportation. We should be sorry to be obliged to compute exactly the number of bottles of Johann Hoff's Malt Ex- tract which have been sold since its first appearance in 1847. A con- signment of 25,000 bottles is a mat- ter of very small significance. This is usually the number in a single exportation to foreign countries. If there be one thing more than another that has been pleasing to the discoverers of this world-wide remedy, it is that Johann Hoff's Malt Extract is recognized by the entire faculty of the United States as a bona fide tonic and nutrient —a compliment accorded to no other extract. While others have heen “ weighed in the balance and found wanting.” Johann Hoff's Extract has stood the test of over forty years, and is the standard tonic nutritive of today. Beware of imitations. The genuine has the signature of “Johann Hoff” on the neck of every bottle. Eisner & Mendelson Co. sole agents, New York. — Justice Paxson’s Successor. Gov.
