Selentific Discoveries That Lighten Labor—A Weaver's Experien: in Dyeing —Carpets Where the Color Stays as Bright as When New. ‘Those economical women who have learned how easy it fs to save mouey by home-dyeing have often complained because there were not fast and Bon-fading dyes for cotton goods. Within the last few years setence has been at work, and the results are the fast diamond dyes for cotton—turkey red, pink, purple, orange, olive green, brown, etc. These dyes make colors so fast that even washing in strong soapsuds will not start them. If a woman is sure to get the fast diamond dyes for cotton when she wants to dye cotton she Will be able to dye absolutely fast, non-fading col- ors that will stay until the goods are worn out. A practical dyer, writing in the Weavers’ Herald, ays: “I used to dye with roots and barks, but after all my work (and it was a tedious Job) I was Rot satisfied, for the colors were homely and often faded. At last I commenced to use diamond dyes, ‘and the process is so simple and easy that the work is a pleasure. I have used carpets made of rags dyed with diamond dyes three years, and the colors are still as bright as when uew."" Many of the diamond dye fast cotton colors are fo superior to other dyestaffs that they are used by @yers everywhere, even in the big mills and the large dye houses. Imitators of these reliable dyes have claimed that their cotton dyes are “‘just as good."* but practical tests prove the diamond is the ouly kind that rakes colors which soap will not wash out or sunlight fade. ‘The diamond dyes come tn nearly fifty different eolors, for silk, wool and cotton, and will dye any- “thing, from = pair of stockings to a dress or cloak. ° aTHLETES EAT OATS CONSUMPTION SURELY CURED. ‘To the Editor—Please inform your readers that I Raves positive remedy for the sbove named disease.

Preparing for the Big Encampment— The White Lot as a Camp Grow —Enthusiastic Speeches. ‘The officers and members of the Knights of Pythias, who are in this city to make arrangements for the grand encampment here next August, held an enthusiastic conference with the local members of the order at the Riggs House last night. Dur- ing the afternoon delegations from more than a dozen states arrived in the city and headed for the hotel, where they are mak- ing their headquarters during their stay. Prominent among the arrivals were Major General James R. Carnahan of Indianap- olis, commander of the Uniform Rank, K. of P., and three members of his staff, In- spector General W. B. Kennedy of Chicago, Col. Charles Kahlo, and Col. Wm. Scism of Omaha. In addition to these there were the officers of the Supreme Lodge, and the brigadier generals and adjutant generals of several states. The members of the Washington Grand Loage who received Gen. Carnahan were: Col. Foxwell of the major general's staff, Lieuts. Yost, Adams, Harper and Gardner, and the following officers of the Grand Lodge: Grand Chancellor Conners, Su- preme Representatives Goodhart and Med- ford, Brothers Mockabee, Bunch, Heisler, Croney, Whiting, McQuay, and Humphrey, Col. Harry Coggins, Maj. W. B. Bebee, Adj. Martin Hayberger, Capt. J. A. Demps, Adj. Mangum, Adj. C. E. Schweigart, Capt. Co- lumbus, Capt. Woltz, Capt. Lown, Lieuts. Wilson, Gilham, Sauer and Poessell. Shortly after dinner last evening the vis- itors met the local Grand Lodge and the Uniform Rank. Some little time was spent in introductions, after which the meeting was called to order for a discussion of plans for the coming encampment. An ad- dress of welcome was delivered by Supreme Representative Goodhart of this city, in which he told the visitors something gf the plans for the entertainment of the or- der during their encampment here next summer, ‘amp Gro: Addresses were also made in an informal heim! by Messrs. Coggins, Foxwell and hers. The principal matter discussed was tea selection of a camp ground, a matter of vital importance in its effect upon the success of the encampment. The feeling in favor of securing the White Lot for this purpose was unanimous, although other places more remote from the center of the city were suggested. In answer to the objection that the Grand Army had met with considerable opposition in their ef- forts to secure the White Lot for their en- campment last year, it was stated that the grounds had beer left In better condition than they bad ever been before and that this fact would certainly be in favor of the Knights of Pythias when they came to try to obtain the same location. General Carnahan suggested that every member of the committee could go to his Congress- man urging his influence for the movement to secure the place. The Cost. When some one inquired how much money would be wanted, Gen. Carnahan replied that $35,000 would be needed, but Gen, Carnahan declared that the supreme lodge had been working for the encamp- ment of "#4 ever since the Kansas City en- campment; that more had been accomplish- ed than was thought of for any previous encampment so many months before its time. The men who were here, he said, had not left their business in ‘this most busy season for « pleasure trip to Wash- ington, but because their hearts were in World’s Fain ae ‘go the sate \ tng “ 3° ry oe. “BENSON'S: Son ty of Medicinal is Highest ewards ry the work. Gen. Carnahan hoped that no one would entertain the impression that the knights were coming to billet them- selves on the town, because they expected to pay for everything they ate, drank or Will Be Welcom Mr. Goodhart made a speech of reply to the major general, in which he held out assurances that a warm reception would be extended by the mother jurisdiction to the hosts of Pythians, that the Washington knights were alive to the work, and he felt that the citizens would be surprised at the great parade on the avenue. The brigadiers of the different states were call- ed upon for speeches. Those who spoke were Gen. Barcley of Illinois, Gen. Ross of Indiana, Gen. Weidner of Ohio, Gen. Curry of Kentucky, Gen. Prevost of Missouri, Gen. Loper of Iowa, Col. Dale of Nebraska and Col. Wiegant of Kansas. It was said that at least 20,000 knights of the uniform rank will march in the parade. Tonight the visitors will meet the busi- ness men of the city and members of the order at the parlors of Willard’s. In connection with this present gathering there will be held a meeting of the Supreme Lodge upon incorporation, which was chos- en at the last Supreme Lodge. The term for which the order was incorporated soon expires, and steps are being taken to renew the charter. The chairman of this commit- tee is Congressman George B. Shaw of Wisconsin, Pasi Supreme Chancellor P. T. Colgrove of Michigan, Tracy Bangs of North Dakota, R. L. White of Tennessee and Walter Ritchie. —— REVOLUTION. SONS OF The Annaal Meeting Shows a Growing d Spreading Organization. About forty members attended the annual meeting of the District Society of the Sons of Revolution, held at Welcker’s Monday night. Mr. Justice Brewer, the president of the society, presided. The annual re- ports showed that the society was in quite @ flourishing condition. The board of man- agers reported that the society and that of the Sons of the Americar: Revolution were united in the most friendly relations. The board also reported that a room at No. 1535 llth street northwest had been secured for the permanent use and occupancy of the so- ciety. Mr. A. K. Parris, from the committee appointed at -he previous meeting to pro- mote the establishmert of societies in the different states, staied that organizations had been formed in Minnesota, Ohio, Cali- fornia, Connecticut, North Carolina and Illinois. And correspondence showed _ac- tive work in Michigan, Rhode Island, Mis- souri, Kentucky and South Carolina. It was reported in the treasurer's report that the receipts of the society for the past year had been 3992.19, and the expenditures AFFAIRS IN GEORGETOWN Mrs. Ellen White Attempts Suicide by Cutting Her Throat. A Sad Double Death in West W: ington—The Duty on C j—Chri tian Endeavorers—Other Notes. Yesterday Mrs. Anna M. Campbell, wile of Mr. Thomas Campbell of 3417 Prospect avenue, a c: rk in the pension office, passed away after an Illness of but three days, and twenty-four hours after her thirteen-year- old daughter, Nina, had breathed her last. Both mother and daughter attended the theater last Saturday afternoon, and were apparently in the best of health. On Sunday they were strick- en with some sudden complaint, which has proven to have been a fatal one. ‘This morning a white crape hangs on one side of the front door of the Campbell home and a black on the other. It was the original intention of the father to send his daughter’s remains back to his old home, Charlestown, S. C., but on the death of his wife he decided to make a local burying ground the place of interment for both. So ill was the mother on the death of her daughter that it was deemed advisable not to tell her of the sad event, and she passed away unconscious of the truth. The funeral took place this afternoon, Father Roccofort of Trinity officiating. Mr. Hart's Travels. Mr. Henry Hurt, the recreating presi- dent of the Washington and Georgetown Railroad Company, is now in Yokohama, Japan. He writes that he will probably not return to the United States for at least two years, it being his desire to thoroughly see the eastern part of Asia and the Iuro- pean continent first. As to whether or not he will take up the duties of president again, he is undecided. Mr. Hurt says, in one of his letters, that a United States dollar in Japan buys $1.08 a icers were elected for the year as fol- ay President, Lewis J. Davis; vice pres- ident, Col. George H.

Looker, Richard Crain Dean, Albion K. Parris, Charles Harrod Campbell, Henry G. Kemp and Col. Garrick Mallory. Mr. Davis at first declined the honor of election to the presiden or the re- election of Mr. Justice Brewer, but the latter stated he desired to retire in favor of one who could more actively attend to the duties of the office. President Davis then appointed the Rev. Randolph McKim chaplain and Mr. Gatl- lard Hunt historian.

Between 4 and 5 o'clock yesterday after- nooa Mrs. Ellen White, residing at 3342 R street, a woman about sixty years of age, attempted to put an end to her existence by cutting her throat with a carving knife. ‘The weapon made a great gash, but did not go through the cartilage, and after bleeding profusely for some time, Mrs. White re- pented of her rash act and with some dif: culty attracted from a window the atten- tion of Mr. Shriner, who keeps a store op- posite. On seeing the woman's condition he quickly went for Doctor A. B. Shekells. The doctor responded to the call promptly and found it necessary to put seven stitches in the woman's throat. She would assign ho cause for the act, though it is believed to have been prompted by domestic troubles. Mrs. White is a widow with several grown children, The Duty on Coal. The owners of the mines which support and bring into prominence the Chesapeake and Ohio canal are going to make a strong fight to have the duty of seventy-five cents retained on imported coal. The taking off of the duty or its reduction to any extent means, they say, the destruction of the im- portance of the coal industry of Maryland, Virginia and West Virginia. No longer will these states be able to compete with Nova Scotia and the industry will, therefore, lan- guish. Only soft coal is to go upon the ways and means committee's free list, yet the anthracite men claim that by the re- duction they will become much affected. They, too, then are much exercised and will attempt to devise means to prevent injury to themselves. 1. News. Boats arrived yesterday by way of the canal as follows: Detroit, Capt. Dickerhoff; R. L. Somerville, Capt. Smith; Judge Brad- ley, Capt. Hammond; A. H. Dowden, Capt. S. M. Sloan, Capt. Schaffer; No. 118, Capt. Mills. Boats cleared yesterday as follows: N mg one Stevens; J. Bryan, Capt.

Walters of Washington claim- ed that he was “roped” into a match race on May 17, 1893, for $200 a side in which he trotted his horse Corryville Boy against a horse nominated as Bay Secret. Before the match came off Walters discovered that Bay Secret was really Eclipse with a 2:23 record. He thereupon paid his membership ques in the association and named an as- sociation track for the match. The race came off. His horse was beaten and now he demands the privilege of taking down the money he posted because Bay Secret was a “ringer.” The board reserved its de- cision, — THE GENUINE JOHANN HOFF’S.

Important transfers were made of cap- tains of the police force at the meeting of the New York board of police commission- ers held yesterday afternoon. The first was that of Capt. Devery from the eleventh to the first, but ten others also were changed, besides all ordinance officers. A strange and emphatic warning must have been received by the proprietors of the different establishments in the “Tenderloin district.” By some mysterious agency word was sent around that it would be better to close up. There was nothing for the keepers | of these places to do but to take the warn- ing, and that is the reason that the “Tender loin” was quiet and sad last night. Both the changes and the wave of reform are at- tributed to the work of Dr. Parkhurst. +o. Death of “The Marrying Parson.” Rev. J. J. White, one of the best known and oldest ministers in the Methodist Protestant Church, died yesterday morning at his residence at Brooklyn. He was seventy-six years of age. He was familiar- ly known as the “marrying parson” on ac- count of the large number of couples he united in wedlock. A Revolution In Eating has been brought ng by the introduction of CoTroteng, the new vegetable shortening. The discovery of this uct, and the demonstration of its remarkable qualities, has attracted the widest interest. Hitherto the common shortening has been lard, or indifferent butter. Every one has probably suffered occasional dis- comfort from lard-cooked food; while it is well known that thous- ands are obliged to abstainentire- ly from everything of that kind. To such people, CorTo.ene is of peculiar value, widening as it does, the range of what may be eaten and enjoyed. CoTToLENE is a cooking marvel. It combines with the food—imparts to it a tempting color, a delicate fiavor, and an appetizing crispness. No trace of greasiness remains to offend the taste, or disturb the digestion. CoTToLene is worthy of the careful notice of all those who value good food, of itself or for its hygienic properties. Sold by Leading Grocers. Mads only by GN. K.
