Home Runs by Farrell and Larkin and Hard Hitting by McGuire Helped to Win. “It's dollars to crackers we win tomorrow,” said Sullivan on Sunday, speaking to an ac- quaint'nce about the next game with the Pittstur;s. It wasacineh as Sullivan said, but Joe ought to have put us all on to the “good thing.” The Senators found Terry and Gastright to be far easier than the wily south paw, Killen, and batted out a vietory. The Pittsburgs’ twirlers were very wild, while Duryea was as steady asa judge. Five of the Washingtous’ runs were made by men who reached frst on balls. Only one of the Senators who scored reached his base on an error, which shows that the visitors gave their pitchers good support. Terry started in to pitch for Pittsburg. but the Senators hit him so hard that Gastright was substituted, but he fared no better. Daryea pitched an excellent game, and, with the exception of Hoy, received good support, The mute dropped two fly balls and misjudged another. Hoy, however, made a wonderful catch of Beckley’ ‘ly in’ the first with the bases full, ed two runs. He was running with nd just as it was going over him he made a side jump and flung up his right hand. ‘The ball struck in his hand, and the air rang with cheers. Farrell aud Larkin hit for home runs.

The St. Louis team was not in the game with the New Yorks yesterday. Rusie was invinci- ble for six innings and then let up. Gleason on the other hand was wild and Ward’s men hit him almost at will. Burke's batting was a featuce as was Connot’s first base play. Quinn made two costly errors. Mike Kelly was laid off without pay until he gets into condition to play ball. Ward also released Pitcher Donohue, who was immediately signed by the Lowell, Mass., team. Score, 10 to 5. Parrott. the third baseman of the Chicago team. was the man who did the most toward defeating the Brooklyns at Eastern Park yes- terday afternoon. Parrott participated in all three of the double plays made, Dungan made aglorious catch in the eighth inning which robbed Con Pailey of a home run. Altogether the Chicagoians fielding was very fine. Schriver and Dablex batted the best, Dahlen getting a home run. Just when the hits were needed Brooklyn failed to got there. Score, 7 to 5. ‘The Louisvilles met with defeat at the hands of the Baltimores yesterday, because of the Orioles getting a batting streak in the eighth inning. Stratton up to this time pitched a fine McMahon was hit sparingly and was times. The fielding of both teams was good, the outfielders making some very pretty plays. Ward, who was with the Baltimores last year and who’ played with New Orleans, made his reappearance. Previous to the game the Baltimore and Louisville teams completed a deal which, no doubt, will cause a surprise. Left Fielder O'Rourke of the Baltimore club was traded for First Baseman Taylor and Shortstop Jennings. Taylor will report in Philadelphia June 17. Manager Barnie also caused a private stir by fining Hemming, Harrington, Khines and W. Brown for imbibing too freely on Sun- day. Attendance, 2,320. Score, 5 to 3. Philadelphia won an interesting game in the tenth inning after two wore out on successive three buggers by Cross and Allen and Keefo's single. Cincinnati got a lead early in the game by reason of errors by Allen, Thompson and Boyle, but the home team overcame this by hard hitting. Weather cléar and hot. Attend- ance, 2.579. Score, 8 to 6. The Charpions fairly won yesterday's game from the Spiders by superior batting. It was a “scrapping” game from start to finish, both teams finding fault with the umpire and con- tinually fighting for points. Young was sub- stituted for Clarkson in the seventh inning. Attendance, 3,000. Score, 12 to 10. Standing of the Clubs, JAMES HAsie He has been in poor health for a long time, and his improved condition is the subject of general re- mark. Clarence T. Kirby is a dcuggist in Towanda, and he says that when Harris went to him for two bottles of Puine’s celery compound last May, before he started for a visit to his daughter in Orwell, he Wasim very bad shape, and he would not have been surprised if Mr. Harris had never come back tocourt again. Let Mr. Harris tell his story. He says: “Ihave been troubled for years with What the doctors call Bright's disease, and my Fight kidney has bothered me terribly: my knees Daiued me so that I could hardly bend over at all. had dizziness in my head, although I never was Much troubled with headache. I have been so dizzy as to full of my chair ard had to be helped up by others. In these dizzy spells I would ap Parently see specks fying in the air,and I was ‘Youbled very frequently in this manner, both on the street and Im the house. Ihad cramps nights soterribiy that I could not get to sleep until 3 @'clock im the morning. I first read of Paine’s celery compound about a year ago. Having tried nearly all the medicines and consulted several phystelans without getting relief I had little con- fidence in anything, but I spoke to druggist Clar- ence T. Kirby about it, and he said he was having ‘great demand for it, and I concluded to try it. I purchased two bottles and took it to Orwell with me and used it according to directions. I began to feel better at once. When two bottles were gone I could get no more at Orwell and discontinued its use until I came back to Towanda. But I certainly had less pain in my kidneys, had no cramps, and could sleep and rest nearly ail night. When I went Sato the court house on my return Judge Peck and all the court officers congratulated me on my im- Proved appearance and told me I was getting Young again. And I certainly feel younger now. I | am taking my third bottle of Paine’s celery com- Pound and shall continue tts use. It has done me more good than all the other medicines I ever took, and to it lowe my present improved condi- ‘on of health.” ee Clubs. |W. i.)

THE VALKYRIE WE ESTEEMED. English Sporting Meu Think Her a For- midable Competitor, Loxpox, June 6.—Yesterday’s victory of Lord Dunraven's yacht Valkyrie has added much to the interest taken in her perform- ances, and in sporting circles it is believed that she will prove the most formidable competitor England has yet sent to America to seek to re- gain the America’s cup. ‘The wind yesterday was light, as it was on the previous occasion when the Valkyrie won, and it is now evident that she is able to sail comparatively well in lightand bafiling breezes. How she will act in a stiff wind or a gale yet Temains to Le seen, but it is claimed that she will sLow herself a still better sailer in heavy weather, The contestants in yesterday's ruce—the lkyrie, Iverna, Brittania, Culluna and Sat- inita—started at 11 o'clock this morning to again race over the same course as sailed yes- terday. This course is in the North fea and extends from Harwich to the lightship no northern extremity of the Sbipwash Sands, thence southward to the lightship marking the entrances to the King’s and sunk channels, thence northward to the Shipwash lightship, ‘or from Harwich to the sunk light ship, thenee to Shipwash light- ship and return, as the wind and tide may set.

United States posseases fall and unlimited leg- islative power, both of a political and of a mu- nicipal nature, over this District, there ean be no question’ of ite power’ to regulate or entirely prohibit the sale of intoxicating liquors within the District and to revoke all licenses previously granted, for, as declared by the Supreme Court ‘of the United States, in Crowley va. Christensen, 137, «UU. 8,91, “the police power of the state is fully competent to regulate the business, to mitigato its evils or to suppress it entirely. There is no inherent nght in a citi- zen to sell intoxicating liquors by retail; it is not a privilege of a citizen; of the citizen of a ‘state or a citizen of the United States, As it is @ business attended with danger to the com- munity it may, as already said, be ontirely pro- hibited or be permitted under such conditions as will limit to the utmost its evils, The manner and gxtent of regulation rest in the discretion of the governing authority. That authority may vest in such officers as it may deem proper the Power of passing upon applications for per- ion to carry it on, and to issue licenses for that purpose. “It is’ matter of legislative will only.” Therefore, all persons obtaining licenses under such legislative power must take them subject to legislative will and aubject to be revoked whenever the legislative may deem it proper to do so. THE SINGLE QUESTION. ‘The single question raised upon the bill of exception taken by the plaintiff in error at the trial below is whether the act of Congress has by fir and rational construction entirely repealed and superseded all prior legislation upoa the subject of the grant of license for the sale of ligaor ia the District, and thereby nullified all pre- existing licenses, and made it necessary for par- ties holding such licenses to apply for and obtain new licenses under the new law. Or whether ‘euch licenses can, by fair construction, be al- lowed to run and ‘afford protection to the par- ties holding them until the end of the curent year for which they were granted. On behalf of the plaintiff in error it bas beon ingeniously argued that the laws relating to the liquor trattic in the District and the regulations thereunder in force prior to and at the time of the passage of the act of Congress under consideration are not repealed bj the act of Congress; but that the old laws an regulations in force at the dute when the act of Congress came into effect, and the act of Con- gress, are to be considered 1m pari materia, and the intent of Congress is to be gathered from the whole taken together. To refute this contention and to make it plain that the two license systems cannot co- exist or stand togethe?, even for a limited time, it is only necessary to examine and com- pare the provisions of the acts of Congress with those of the prior law, it iv proper first to refer to the provisions of the prior law. THE OLD Law. The act of the legislative assembly, of this District, approved August 23, 1871, provided that no person should be engaged in any trade, business or profession therein men- tioned until he obtained a license; and that every person liable for license, who, fril- ing to pay the same within thirty days after the same became due, for such peglect should, in addition to the license tax imposed, pay a fine of not less than — five, nor more than fifty dollars, and a like fine or penalty for every subsequent offense. It was further provided that every Jace where liquors were sold in quantities [either vai tish “to. be Grnl on ans premises, should be known as a bur room. sample room or tippling house: and the license tax or fee for such places was $100 annually, and the proprietors of beer gardens were required to pay a license tax of #5 per day. And all dealers in distilled and fermented liquors, wines and cordials,other than the keepers of bar rooms, sample rooms and tippling houses, were required to pay an- nually €10 for ‘each 1,000 of capi- tal invested, but that no’ licenses should be for n less sum than 825. And all annual licenses were required to date from the Ist of November of each year and expire on the 3ist of October following; and the license of every person liable for license tax after the first of April, July and November, re- spectively, was required to date from the first of the month in which the liability began, and payment to be made for a proportionate amount, ‘These were the principal provisions of the license laws of the District applicable to the sale of liquor that were in force when the uct of Congress of Merch 8, 1893, went into effect, and it was under ‘these _pro- visions of the prior law that the plaintiff in error dbtained his license to keep a bar room on the 23d of December, 1892, to expire on the Slat of October following. THE NEW LAW, The act of Congress of March 3, 1898, con- tains twenty-one sections, ard as I have said, it professes to provide for the full and complete regulation of the entire liquor traffic m_ the District of Columbia and makes no provision whatever for continuing in force existing or unexpired licenses. By section 1it is declared “that no person shall sell, offer for sale or keep for sale in barter of exchange for goods in the District of Columbia any intoxicating liquor except as hereinafter provided.” Section 2 constitutes the three Commissioners of the District a board of excise, whose duty it shall be to pass upon all applications for licenses to sell intoxicating liquors, and whose action thereon shall be final and conclusive, and such board is clothed with power to make such ruies and regulations for carrying into effect the act they may deem requisite and proper. Section 4 prescribes the mode and manner of making the application for the license, the facts essential to entitle the applicant to obtain the license and the manner of verification of such facts, and by section 5 every applicant for license to keep a bar room within the definition of the act is required to obtain and present with his application the written permission of a majority of persons owning real estate antl a majority of the residents keep- ing house in the immediate vicinity of the location of such bar room. And by section 6 it is provided that under the license issued in accordance with this act no intoxicating liquors shall be sold, given or in any way disposed of to any minor or intoxicated person, or to an hubitual drunkard, nor to any person who is in the habit of be- coming intoxicated, if such person's wife, mother or daughter shall, in writing, re- quest that the saloon keeper shall” not ell to such persona above the age of teen years, or between 12 o'clock mid- night and 4 o'clock in the morning, during which last named hours, and on Sundays, every bar room and other piace where intoxicating liquors are sold shail be kept closed and no in toxicating liquors sold, Section 7 provides that no license shall be issued for a longer period than one year and section 8 declares thatall licenses authorized by the act shall be of two classes, wholesale liquor licenses and bar room license. ‘The fee tor a wholesale license shall bo $250 per annum, and for a bar room license the feo shall be $400 per annum. And by section 9 every person receiving a license to sell under this “act shall frame it and keep it exposed under glass in somo conspicuous place in the room where the liquor is sold. Section 12 proseribes penalties and declares that any person doing business or welling liquor “without first having obtained a license to do so, a8 herein provided, or any person who shall engage in such sale’ in any portion of the District where the sale theroof is prohibited, upon conviction thereof,” shall be fined not Jess than $250 nor more than $800. or be im- prisoned in jail or the work house for not less than two months nor more than six montha; and upon every subsequent conviction, in addition to” the pecuniary penalties | just mentioned, the. party shall be imprisoned in the work house for not less than three nor more than twelve months, And by section 13 it is provided that any person having obtained a license under this act who shall violate any of its provisions shall, upon conviction thereof, be fined not less than $50 nor more than $200,and [upon every subsequent conviction of ‘like | offense, during the running of the license, shall jbe fined a like amount, and, in addition to such fine, shall pay a sum’ equal to 25 per cent of the amount of fine imposed for the offense S ULCERS SCROFULA RHEUMATISM BLOOD POISON kindred disease arfsing from impure cured by that never-failing and best of all medicn 7) uJ 5 33 artes Book on Blood and Skin Diseases mailed free.

When the decision in the Bush caso was an- | nounced, the mews soon reached the Police Court, aud perhaps the most surprised and dis- appointed man was Judge Miller, who had Passed upon ‘the ease in the first in- j Stance. Judge Miller went over the case thoroughly and gave an explanation of each point raised, and said he had felt cer- tain, in view of the many authorities produced by Mr. Pugh, that tho Court of Appeals would sustain bis decision, While the judge was surprised ho was Satisfied, with the dissenting opinion of Judge ‘Alvey in that iteustains the decision ren- dered when the case was dixposed of in the Police Court. Judge Miller, however, declined to express any opinion regarding the decision, Mr. Pugh, the asvistant attorney for the Dis- trict, who conducted the prosecution, said to = Srax reporter: ““In view of the decisions from New York, Nebraska, Indiana, Maryland and the stato of Georgia Tam very ‘much surprised at the decision in tho now famous case. This case was brought for the purpose of deter- mining whether or not the liquor trafic was |under any legal restraint, In view of tho act of Congress there was some doubt expressed by persons interested in the sale of liquor as to the operation of the new law. The principal question was whether the holders of licenses tinder the oid Iw was sub- ject to the regulations under that law, or Whether they were placed under the new reg- ulations, and it was the settlement of this ques- tion that was desired. “I have not yet read the decision, but I am satisfied that the opinion of Judg: Alvey ex- Prewses the legal status of the case and is In ac- cordance with the decision of every state here- tofore pussing upon this question, with the ex- ception of Ohio.” — AT THE DISTRICT BUILDINGS. How the Opinion in the Bush Case Compli- cates Affairs, The news of the decision in the Bush case was given to the Commissioners this morn- ing by a Sram revorter. It was the first intimation they had received that the case had gone against the District. Shortly after- ward Attorney Thomas came in and explained the decision, “Ho said he was very much sur- prised and could not understand how such a conclusion could be arrived at, This decision puts the Commissioners in a labyrinth of didiculties and brings about & most complex condition of affaira, Auditor Petty was sent for and bad a long interviow with the Commissioners relative to refunding the money pai: | men ander the now Inw. | Hie a ‘om- | missioners that the money could all be refunded ina short time. The dealers, however, will be paid by a pay roll, the same as the clorks are paid off. ‘This afternoon Mr. Frank Madigan appeared before the Commissioners and made several ropositions concerning the disposition of old Kcenecs, He. asked whether ‘aman, who hed surrendered his old ticense would be allowed inue under his new license if he so . The Commissioners thought he could. ‘Tne District will suffer considerably by this decision, as over €100,000 has been paid for these new licenses, ‘The Commissioners do not care to discuss the decision until they receive an official copy. | Commissioner Parker, however, remarked that it was n good thing to-pnt this large amount of money into circulation again. THE PARACHUTE WOULDN'T WORK. Balloonist, Loses Charles Y. Richmond, His Life. Charles Y. Richmond, an aeronaut, made a 3,000-foot ascension yesterday and lost his life at Cochrane Park, a picnic ground on the Dela- ware near Trenton, Nearly 4,000 persons wit- neseed the accident. Richmond rose gracefully into space, sailing with the wind in a southeasterly direction. When he cut loose from the balloon it was noticed by the spectators that the parachute failed to work properly and they were horrided to sco Hichmond dosepda with iightning rapid- ity, making revolutions in the air as he came down. Several women fainted and everybody in the great throng was thrilled or sickened by the spectacle. Richmond landed in muddy little stream called “Stiring Pond” and when taken ott was dead. Richmond came from Springfield, Ill, and Was thirty-three years of age and unmarried. He had made about 500 uscensions altogether and never before experienced any mishap. ————+e-—____ Norfolk and Western Recelvership Set Aside.

In the spring I took a very severe cold, which was the worst I had had at dhy tine, my nose discharged profuse watery discharge, my bead acled and I felt weak and used up during thjs cold, my oar ‘dexan to ring and in a few days it commenced to pain, rowing mote and more severe. It was so intens® ‘that I could notsleep-at night. Ibecame very deaf in my left ear, and then an abscess formed, and after it burst the ear ran a great deal of discharge Thad had a doctor, but still my ear seeined to stay about the same until I went to Dr. Jordan, when I commenced to improve at once. He stopped the pain inmyear. Thore isno ringing notse, the running hae ceased and I can hear as well as ever. My nose is clear, no discharwe,aud I breathe freely through it.
