THE EVE) NG STAR: WASHINGTON, D. ©. FRIDAY, NOVE HOW PEOPLE FEEL. |, * A Level-Headed Man Tells Just What | the Condition of Men and Women is | Now and What They Can Do to Ad- vantage. I know a charming man, whose name is well- mown, who, the other evening, began talking about pople. He said: “How often people feel worn out, run down, ex- | hausted, unfitted for business, and yet have to bear up aud zo about their usual duties. They feel the need of something to brace them up, restore vital- ity and give needled strength. Narcotics, opiates | and ordinary stimulants are out of the question. | ‘They only serve to make matters worse, and phy- sicians rightly condemn them. On the other hand, yut is the only means of promptly overcoming | physical exhaustion and ermting new vigor. This is indeed the nineteenth century remedy for the Rineteenth century disease, too much nervous strain and tension. No better recuperative measure bas Deen devised for the exhausted brain worker. It has been proved that a pure whisky Is the best means of producing this desirable result. It serves to Keep the blood in healthy motion, removes tm- purities from the system, feeds the wasted tissues and imparts renewed vitality. I have seen many whiskies, and I say unhesitatingly that such a stimulant cam be found only in Duffy’s Pure Malt Whisky."* And J know he is right. I have used it faithfully, and I know many men and even temperance women who “would not be without it."" I have found that many druggists and ‘grocers try to sell inferior things, but I have never known of any sensible man or woman who would permit them to do wo.

For some time past the engineer depart- ment has been giving the subject of street lighting its attention. This has been es- pecially so regarding electric lighting. It was found early in the investigation that the arc lamps were not properly arranged to give the best service. The trouble seems | to have been that they were strung too high and the trees interfered with the prop- er diffusion of the light. So it was deter- mined to lower the lamps. The first street upon which this was tried was 14th street and the result was so satisfactory that it has been decided to do the same thing with the electric lamps on 7th street. There was some question raised as to whether the lowering of the lamps would prove dangerous. President A. A. Thomas of the electric company, writing to the Commissioners up- on this subject today, say: “I am in receipt of your favor of Novem- ber 2, referring to paragraph 2 of our con- tract, wherein you authorize this company have the honor to state that this request has been complied with, but take this oppor- tunity to protest against the location of lamps so short a distance above the surface of the street, for the reasons that they are in dangerous proximity and are lable to in- jury, and in themselves a dangerous ob- struction to the passing of loaded wagons. I shall, if accident happens to the lamps themselves, or to life or property, look to the District for relmbursement.”” WHY THE CHINESE BELIEVE The seat of the soul is in the stomach is not known. Perhaps it is caused by the effect the condition of the stomach has on the brain. Poor stomach, poor digestion, cloudy and confused brain go together. So truthfully does the great nerve connecting those organs convey its impressious. Very fre- quently dyspepsia—the real name for poor diges- tion—is a forerunner of other diseases, yes, e' a cause of them. An easy way to obtain a good digestion—-a pleasant way to keep it, if you have it—Is use of the genuine JOHANN HOFF’S MALT EXTRACT. It exits the energies, stimulates the nutritive powers, improves the appetite, and aids | digestion. —< %.. tae “Sas Sold by all dealers.

What May Be the Effect of Pufting Coal aud Iron on the Free List— Revolt Against Election Frauds, Mr. Chappell Cory of Birmingham, Ala., formerly editor of the Montgomery Adver- tiser, who has been in Washington for several days and has had a conference with the ways and means committee in the in- terest of the coal and iron ore industries of Alabama, says that politics is worse mixed in Alabama than in any other state in the Union. “What would be the effect of the fusion announced between the Jeffersonian or Kolb democrats, the populists and repub- licans?” he was asked. “The announcement is premature,” he re- plied. “There has been no fusion as yet, though when the time comes all elements opposed to the democratic party will doubt- less be found working in harmony. The populist organization is a very weak affair, those people who would otherwise consti- tute that party being swallowed up in the Kolb wing of the democratic; party. The Jeffersonian conventign will meet in Jan- uary and will undoubtedly put out the same old ticket with Kolb at its head. Very many of the democrats who went off with Capt. Kolb last year and who believe they were counted out will stand by him on the principle of vindication. So far as the white republicans are concerned, they are for any- thing that will break up the democratic or- ganization. The negroes are divided, and the Australian ballot system adopted by the last legislature will go a long way toward reducing their aggregate strength. ‘They are for sale to the highest bidder, anyhow. I think it is safe to count on the negro vote as a stand-off in the state election, so that the contest of next August will be decided by the white vote. The Jeffersonians claim or regular democracy. At the last August election the margin of white majority either way was very narrow and is an open ques- tion that never can be decided. The fact that the Jeffersonians or Kolb organization, claiming to be the real democracy, went off to Weaver in November and failed to carry their rank and file, renders it certain that @ great many democrats who voted with Kolb in the state election in good faith and for Cleveland in November, will never sup- port Capt. Kolb again. I think this number is sufficiently large to assure the victory to the regular organization.” The Silver Question. “Will the silver question play any part in the state election” “So far as chin music goes, yes. So far as votes go, no. If our Senators and mem- bers had voted with the gold standeard wing of the party we would have had a very rocky time indeed in explaining the matters to the country democrats and the working men in the towns, who are prac- tically all for free silver. But they didn’t. There is not the slightest doubt about our next state convention taking strong ¢ for silver, and while Capt. K a great clamor, and ts r: entertains much uneasiness on tha “Is Senator Morgan in any danger of be- ing beatea for re-election by the next legis- lature?” “No. To put it just as it is, the people of Alabama would ‘d it as a piece of audacity for any man in the state to run against Morgan. He would be laughed out of the court. When the Senator gets read: to die, somebody else may stand a chance “If the tariff bill should pass with tree ore and coal in it, would it have any effect on politics in Alabama?” “Certainly. While the fight against it is purely non-political, yet the fact remains that the mineral counties have been hereto- fore held in the democratic columns by the active influence of the coal and iron com- panies, who have considered their interest sing it, in stable government to be identitied with | the democratic party e ore and coal would chill their ardor, at least, and there 1s no telling how far the defection might spread. The fact that the Senators and nearly all the members of Alabama will actively fight free ove and coal minimizes that danger.” A Revolt Against on Frauds. “Then you don’t feel much apprehension about the future?” Yes; while I think the chances of the regular democracy are the better, and it is tco early to forecast evil, the fact remains that there is a wide-spread revolt against fraud in elections. Practically, so far as the votes are concerned, the only issue the Jeffersonians have is their claim to have been counted out last Auguste A great many organized democrat including a number of newspapers, are clamor- ing for a _ free ballot and a @ count. There is danger along line for the regular democracy they give assurance that the new ballot law will be administered in strict fairne: es coURTS, THE Cirenft Court, Division 1, Justice Bradley.

While the audience in the Academy of | Music waited until nearly a quarter to 9 [o'clock last night for the curtain to be rung up on the first act of “In Old Ken- ,tucky” Miss Bettina Gerard, the leading woman's part in the piece, lay almost at death's door in her room in the Gedney House, with a doctor, housekeeper and a maid applying the remedies usual in | the case of an overdose of chloral. During this wait at the theater Miss | Laura Burt was hurriedly dressing to re- | Place Miss Gerard, who, |rumor which quickly spread to uptown mit suicide. The actress herself subsequently admitted having taken the drug,but while she did not | say she had intended to end her life, she expressed ‘regret that a doctor had been sent for, giving as the cause of her weari- ness of this world her latest matrimonial venture with Actor Harrison J. Wolfe. Miss Gerard's maid rushed excitedly into the theater at 7:30 o'clock last evening jand informed Manager Dingwall that the ; actress was very ill and that she was lying unconscious in her room at the hotel. Surprise at the Theater. As Miss Gerard had played on Wednes- | day night and was then apparently in her j usual health, Mr. Dingwall was very much | astonished and sent at once to the hotel to make inquiries. He also sent a mes- | senger to Miss Laura Burt, who is to head jan “In Old Kentucky” company on the | road, to ask her to take Miss Gerard's | place last night. Miss Burt, who was just | | going to a theater party when the message jarrived, hurried to the Academy of Music, and while she was dressing for the part a member of the company announced to the audience the cause of the delay. When I called at the Gedney House a little later I was told that Miss Gerard was | somewhat better and that she would see me. It will be remembered that only a | few weeks ago she brought suit for divorce against Harrison J. Wolfe, an actor, who |had played the leading part in “In Oia ; Kentucky,” and whom she married to | Pique Actor “Billy” Beach, with whom she had quarrelea. Miss Gerard, in a becoming house dress, | but very pale, lay on a sofa in her sitting | room, and tn a voice scarcely audible trom | Weakness told her story. | “I have been greatly worried since my | troubles with Mr. Wolfe began,” she said. “I have dreaded the effect this new scandal | would have on my parents. As for myself, I am getting rather used to it. Still you know these things do hurt one just a litle always. I have always been of a morbid disposition, and from worrying I have be- come extremely nervous, and of late I haven't been able to sleep. Bought Some Chloral. “T am not in the habit of taking chloral, but the other day I bought some—not by my doctor's advice—and this afternoon when I came home I felt so badly that I took some of the drug and lay down on the sofa to sleep,telling my maid to awaken me at 7 o'clock. “When she came at that time she found Me unconscious and was unable to arouse me. She became frightened and told the hotel people, who sent at once for my phy- sician, Dr. Robert Wiley. He came at once and succeeded in making me all right. I still feel very drowsy, but the doctor thinks I shall be as well as usual by to- morrow, and I hope to be able to play to- morrow night.” A.

Last evening about 9 o'clock an attempt | was made to ride down the east steps of the | Capitol by moonlight. The feat has been | accomplished several times on bicycles, but | this time a daring young man tried to do it on a single wheel. The young man was Harry Park, a Washington boy, who has the record of having ridden down Pike's Peak on the same sort of conveyance. The wheel had no pedals, forks, or handles, and the rider simply stood on the protruding axles and let the cycle go, checking the = descent with his gloved hands on the tire. A start was made from the top and twice the young man came near being successful, making the first four landings of thirty-six | steps; but the first time, on striking the fifth flight, the tire came off the wheel, and the second time the wheel itself buckled at the top of the fifth flight. This put a stop to the performance, but the rider said that he would do the whole forty-five steps as soon as the wheel was repaired. ——— Marr fe Licenses.
