The Burden of Housekeeping Falle Heavily on Mothers. Housekeeping is growing less simple and more and more complex each year. A home that pro- fesses to be well regulated today is far more difficult to manage than was the same kind of a bome 50 or 60 years ago. Upon the woman falls the burden. Many work themselves into nervous exhaustion. Many mothers grow so irritable that they feel at all times half guilty, fearing that their disease— for it is @ disease, and a most dreadful one--may result in affecting the otherwise sunny disposition of their ebildren. What pain ts to the broken limb, such is ner- | vous frritability to the exhausted brain, real as the other. But thousands of irritable, nervous, tired and broken-down women have found their health and strength, and regained their even tempers, through the use of the greatest remedy the world has ever known, the remedy first prescribed by the eminent One is as SHORT. MRS. B. E. Prof. E. EB. Phelps, M.D., LL. D., of Dartmouth College. Let every woman read the following voluntary testimonial from Mrs. E. E. Short, a highly re- spected resident of Haverhill, Mass., and learn of one of the thousands of wonderful cures that are wrought by Paine’s celery compound: “Though never very strong, I was always well until I was married. I was 19 years old then and am 28 now and the mother of four children. I got frightened just before my little girl was born, and I have never wholly recovered from it. I have taken medicine enough to swim in. I have been so nervous that I did not dare to go out in the back room after dark unless some one went with me for fear I should scream. “I bave been very thankful that I used Paine’s celery compound, for as a result I can now go out evenings and not feel so awful. Every one tells me how well I look. I do my work all alone, and | people ask me how I do so much, and I tell them because I used Paine’s celery compound. “My husband has spent enough money for me for doctors, nurses and medicine to pay for a home, and he is very thankful that I took Paine’s gelery_compound.” VAUTION.—If @ dealer offers W.

BIRNEY'S ARGUMENT of Eminent Domain. ‘COMMITTEE QUESTIONS | ' hearing before the House District com- mittee this morning touching the legal | rights of the company in its occupancy of its present grade, as fixed by act of Gongress. The railroad company was represented at the hearing by Vice Presi- dent King of the B. and O. and Mr. Geo. E. Hamilton. The Northeast Washington | Persons of President Frizzell and = Mr. | Tucker, together with Prof. Gallaudet, | Rev. Mr. Seymour, Mr. Chappelle, Mr. Fague and Mr. W. C. Dodge. Gen. Wm. Birney was present in behalf of the East Washington Citizens’ Association. Mr. Hamilton’s Address. Mr. Hamilton first addressed the commit- tee and said the B. and O. does not assert a right in opposition to the wishes of Con- gress, to be used belligerently in oppos! tion, but that the company wishes to con- travert the position which seems to be as- serted by the Citizens Association that the B. and 0. is a wrongdoer and is here without authority. The company is here by legal authority, possessing rights which do not expire until 1010. Of course Con- gress can exert the power of eminent do- main and can assert the strong arm of the government in this as in the cases of private individuals. In answer to a ques- | tion by Mr. Cooper of Florida Mr. Hamil- ton said the rights were conferred by act of Congress and carried into effect by ordi- nances of the council and aldermen of the city and contracts with them. Mr. Cooper calied Mr. Hamilton's atten- tion to a decision which was rendered in the Supreme Court of the United States February 5, 1804, in which it was held as follows: “It is likewise thoroughly established in this court that the inhibitions of the Con- | stitution of the United States upon the impairment of the obligations of contracts or the deprivations of property without due process or of the equal protection of the laws by the states are not violated by | the legitimate exercise of legislative power | in securing the public safety, health and morals. The governmental power of self- protection cannot be contracted away, nor can the exercise of rights, grants, nor the use of property, be withdrawn from the | implied liability to governmental regula- | tion in particulars essential to the preser- vation of the community from injury.” This was the case of a railroad company | which contended that a state had no au- thority to change the grade of a railroad | company, the N. Y. and N. E. R. R. Co. vs. | the town of Bristol. Mr. Hamilton said that the present propo- sition is not merely one to change a grade, but to change the line of the road, to re- move it from one street to others. Gen. William Birney then addressed the committee in behalf of the Northeast Washington Citizens’ Association and the East Washington Citizens’ Association. Gen, Birney’s Argument. Gen. Birney stated that he had been re- quested by the East Washington Citizens’ Association to controvert the proposition advanced by the Baltimore and Ohlo Rail- road Company that for the use of its tracks In this city and the District it has vested rights which Congress cannot con- stitutionally regulate by law. He disclaim- ed any unfriendly spirit toward the com- pany, which he regarded as one of the potent factors in promoting the prosperity he District and of the country. ‘onditions have changed in this city, he said, “since license was given to the company to extend a lateral branch into it. In 18381 there were but a few scattering dwelling houses in Northeast Washington; the streets were ungraded; the travel in vehicles rare; there were no stores. For many years the steam cars passed and repassed without either impeding travel or endangering persons or property. But, with the enormous growth of population, of local trade and travel in that quarter and an equally great increase in the bust- ness of the railroad company and number of {ts cars, the passage of vehicles {s ar- rested for hours daily and accidents have become of frequent recurrence at the rail- road crossings. At the last meeting of your committee for hearing this subject the citizens submitted proofs of 103 casu- alties at the street and railroad crossings in Northeast Washington, of which twenty- four resulted in death and seventy-nine in the mutilation or crippling of the victims. It appeared, also, that the inhabitants of that quarter live under the shadow of a con- stant apprehension of danger to themselves and children. When the hour approaches for a railroad train to pass every mother gathers in her children, and, if one is miss- ing, she lives in fear until the lost one is found. “In this state of things the people demand of Congress to revise Its legislation and to enact effective laws to prevent the stop- page of travel and give security to persons and property at the railroad crossings.” A Case That is Not Parallel. The railroad company, he said, pleads that it is protected against such laws by the principle of the Dartmouth College case, as laid down by the Supreme Court of the United States. On this he joined is- | sue with them. He claimed that the facts |underlying the Dartmouth case did not | make It a parallel case. There was noth- ing in that case endangering the lives of jneighbors or destroying their comfort in |the enjoyment of their homes. It decided | one point only, and that a ow one. To | understand the law of the subject all the {cases must be studied. In several cases the | Supreme C urt has upheld the right of a state to legislate so as to make a charter of no effect. Mr. Birney cited a number of jcases in which he claimed this principle was maintained, and quoted also from the | text book writers and said they could re- jgard it as fully established by the court {that the doctrine of the Dartmouin Coilege jcase is to be supplemented and limited by | the doctrine of the police ar, Which is | declared by the court to be governments, fundamental, land inalienable. “It is,” uid, ; this power that valid laws have been Jed in all the states to regulate the property lin dangerous places, to provide tor erect- ing barricrs on wharves for on of life, to compel gas companies to abate the | nuisances of foul odors and of running tar H to compel railroads to licht u into streams, | their tracks in clties,to heat their cars with steam, to use locomotives which do not ‘scatter coals on the tracks, to oke- stacks which do net sparks, to hinit popu Erade of the levels on which the 1d fences along tracks s cattle, to batld depots and sings, to build the crossings : Power of the Government. | After citing dozen Ss on these | a points, Mr. Birney said these were all ap- plications of the police power, ind are su tained by all the courts ia the countr; |from the highest to the lowest, and the: lacts of legislative power may be exercised | without reference to the question whether jor not there is any charter rese1 | the power to annex them ar | based upon the duty of government to pro- | mote convenien of travel and »rotect the persons and property of the ct The | railroad company can have no ri. leven the Congress of the United | which entitle it to impede travel t nd ex Relieve instently, and cure quicker than any other Porous Plaster, liniment or medicine em. ployed.

Railroad Company had a | | Citizens’ Association was present in the | jdanger the lives and property of the in- | habitants of the District. He referred to the legislation permitting the B. and O. company to extend a lateral road into the \ District of Columbia. The character of this permission, he said, is defined in a case | to which the B. and O, company was a party, reported in 70 S., 66. The report in this decision says: “The permission was broad and comprehensive in its scope, but it was a lMcense and nothing more.” What the Law Says. The character of this license was such as to make it revocable at the will of Con- gress. He quoted from the act of March 2, | 1831, under whose provisions the Washing- ton branch of the railroad was constructed, the following provisions: “Whenever the said company, in the con- struction of said railroad, shail find it nec- essary to cross or intersect any established road, street or other way, it shall be the du- ty of said company so to construct said rail- road crossing, such established road, street | or other way as not to impede the passage of persons or property along the road.” Sec. 6. “That nothing herein contained shall be so construed as to prevent the Con- | gress of the United States from * * * en-| acting such rules and regulations prescrib- | ing the speed of cars and carriages passing over said road and other matters relating | thereto necessary for the security of the persons and property of the citizens of the _ District in such manner as to the present or any future Congress shall seem expedi- ent.” The first section provides that the said Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company “Shall be subject to the same restrictions jin the extension and construction of the said lateral railroad into and within the said District as they * * * are subject to der and by virtue of their said charter in the extension and construction of any railroad within the state of Maryland,” &c. | He invited particular attention to the fol- lowing “restriction” in the Maryland char- | ter of said company: | “Sec. 16. And be it enacted, That where- ever in the construction of the said road or roads it shall be necessary to cross or in- tersect any established road or way it shall | be the duty of the president and directors | of said company so to construct the said road across such established road or way as not to impede the passage or transporta- | tion of persons or property along the same; | or where it shall be necessary to pass through the land of any individual, it shall also be their duty to provide for such in- dividual proper wagonways across sald road or roads from one part of his land to the | other.”” He quoted likewise from the statutes of July 25, 1866, under which the Metropolitan branch was constructed, showing that the restrictions placed upon the construction of the original road were imposed upon the} company in this case also. The ordinance | of the city corporation passed January 17, | 1867, also imposed the conditions appearing in the original law. This ordinance was formally assented to in writing by the Bal- timore and Ohio Reilroad Company Janu- ary 19, 1867, and the Metropolitan branch was constructed under that contract be- tween the parties. Conditions on the Road. By the adoption of the restrictions in the Maryland charter and the various enact- ments following that, Mr. Birney insisted | the following important conditions were stamped upon the licenses granted by the United Statees to build the branches of | the railroad in this city and District: First. That the said railroad should be constructed across the established roads, streets or other ways so as not to impede the passage of persons or property along the road. Second. That Congress reserved the right to enact rules and regulations prescribing the speed of cars over said roads and other matters relating thereto, necessary for the security of the persons and property of the citizens of the District of Columbia. “Is anything more,” he said “asked of Congress by the people of this District? Give us laws which secure us unimpeded passage on the streets, on foot, on horse- back or in vehicles, without danger to life, limb or property, and we will be content.” Whnt the City Did. “It matters little,” he sald, “what it did; nothing, indeed, unless it acted under ex- press authroity of Congress. Under its charters of 1820 and 1848 it had no right over the city streets, except to open them agreeably to the plan of the city and keep them in repair. Under the special acts of | Congress on this subject, it had very little | to do, except to look after the route and | terminus and agree upon the levels. The | owner, the United States, licensed the com- pany to pass through, and the corporation showed it where to go, where to stop and | how to construct its track. The city did some things which were ultra vires; but all | its acts culminated in and were merged | into its formal contract with the Baltimore and Ohio Ratlroad Company, under date of | January 17 and 19, 1867. Acting professedly under the powers given by Congress in its act of July 25, 1866, the city corporation entered into a contract with the Baltimore | and Ohio Railroad Company by assent in writing of said company. In this “contract” the city prese: route of the Meropolitan branch present terminus extends to the y the privilege of using steatn engines } agrees that the railway grades “shall | conform to the legally established” grad of the streets and avenues; that all bridges and culverts shall be constructeé and kept in repair under direction of the authorities | of said city, at the proper cost and expense | of said railroad company; “that nothing in | this act contuined shall be so construed as | to prevent this corporation at any time hereafter when the same shall be considered necessary” (from regulating by law the speed of steam cars), or “from enacting such other further police regulations for the use of said road as this corporation | may deem necessary for the protection of persons and prope:ty along the goute of said road." (See contract in Commission- ers’ Report, 18 “Whatever may have been right to the city corporation to make certain parts of this contract, and I deny its right to bind | the United States, except in matters in which it was specially authorized to do so, a the railroad company is estopped from claiming that the provisions aze not in force. What was reserved to the corp | tion enures to the benefit of the United States. “There are no vested rights In the Ralti- more and Ohio Railroad Company,’ he said in conclusion, “which shall prevent ‘ rming its nt duty— removing hindrance street vel and for security of pe and property from danger at street cossings What the Company ¢ Whiie Gen.

Mr. Cooper suggested that the company had not secured title to the streets In this way, and Gen. Coggswell added that the title secured under condemnation proceed- ings is but an easement. A Revokable License. Gen. Birney insisted that the right of the company to use the streets is but a license, and the license is certainly revokable. He | also denied the authority of the local Dis- trict government in, issuing that license to bind the United States irrevocably. “Suppose,” said Mr. Cobb, “that every route of entry into the city was subject to the same objections as the one now in use; do you contend that under the exercise of police jurisdiction the road can be stopped at the District line?” “I do,” replied Gen. Birney. This concluded the hearing for this day. The matter will come up next Friday, and the railroad company given opportunity to reply. — THE COURTS. Probate Court—Justice Hagner.
