trance Into Celery Com- Soctety—What Paine’ pound Does. To be graceful, entertaining, accomplished in mu- | sic and French, easy talkers on topics of the day, Jet up in ancient history—this and much more is what society expects of the young girls who “rome out at 18 or 19. In the few years before 20 so great a change ts Wrought that we almost, as if by: Magic, see a wo- man. where but a short time before wus only a ehild. F If, during these critical years, constant mental exertion absorbs blood and nerve force, the system grows feeble and suffers from lack of nourisbment. ‘The vital mistake of the thousands of girls who | yearly break down in schools and céfleges is just bere: A vigorous, bealthy body and Drain must Save an unlimited supply of pure, rictt blood, fully capable of building up growing tiésues and re- pairing the waste of bard worked nerves and brain and body. ‘This is just what Paine’s celery compound s pro- viding today for overworked, anxious “run down” people all over the United States and Canada. If care be taken that no part of the body be poorly nourished, a great deal of bard work and study cam be safely gone through. But when young girls are seen to grow thin, pale, spiritiess and nervous, there is plainly starvation of some of the important organs and u craving of the blood and nerves for better nutrition. Paine’s celery compound was first prepared by Prof. Edward E. Pheips, M.D., LL.D., of Dart-/ mouth College, with the fullest knowledge of any medical man of his day of what tired, weak, ner- Yous @omen need to make them well and strong. ‘The happy effects of Paine’s celery compound in ail cases of debility, nervous weakness and !m- poverisbed, impure blood are astonishing. It makes people well where everything else fails. ‘This remarkable remedy makes sickly, feeble wo- men strong; does away completely with the languid feeling that comes from underfed nerves and blood. As @ sure sign of its radical effect on the sys tem for good, it is noticed that in a short time the eyes grow clearer and brighter, the cheeks muddier, and the mind more active and hopeful. Paine’s celery compound cures dyspepsia, stek Beadaches, neuralgia, rheumatism and every symp- tom of impure blood, and permanently cures the most difficult diseases of the liver, kidneys and Beart.

Easy Grou! in the Eleventh Inning. The Washingtons undoubtedly put up a good game yesterday against the Brooklyns, but because of errors the contest, after eleven innings, was credited as a victory for the home team. Abbey continued his sensational work in left field. In the sixth inning, with two out and two on bases, Tom Kinslow lifted the ball to left, but by phenomena! running and a great jump the fielder retired the and prevented a home run. He was wildly cheered by the specta- tors. Each team scored once in the initial in- ning. On Selbach’s base on balls, a wild pitch by Daub and Mercer's sacrifice Wash- ington added another in the fifth. In spite of Capt. Joyce’s protest the game was de- layed sufficiently long in the ninth to per- mit of the substitution of hard hitters La Chance and Kennedy. Radford’s errors al- lowed one man to score. With one out in the eleventh Kennedy sent an easy ground- er to Joe Sullivan, which that player fum- bled. Hits by Daly and Shoch followed, advancing the runner to third, he scoring the winning run a moment later on Tread- way's sacrifice to Abbey. The score: WASHINGTON.

Allentown Forfeits a Hard-Fought- For Game at Harrisburg. As the game with Allentown was the thirteenth played by the Harrisburgs, and it had won twelve, many superstitious | friends of the Harrisburg team were fear- | ful that King Kelly’s men would be victor- ious yesterday at Harrisburg. The weather was threatening, and rain fell during the afternoon, but notwithstanding these un- favorable conditions over 3,000 people wit- nessed- the contest. The visitors obtained a good lead early in the battle, cwing to good hitting and rank errors by Harrisburg, but in the eighth in- ning, amid deafening cheers, Allentown was passed. In the ninth the visitors tied the score. After one of the Harrisburgers had been retired and two men were on bases in the tenth, Wright lifted the ball between right and center and made a home run, scoring three runs. He was carried on the shoulders of the crowd, and pandemonium seemed to have been let loose. Three additional runs were made, when King Kelly resorted to every ex- pedient to have the game delayed, in the hope that he would save his club from de- feat. He first threw the ball over the bleachers. Another was secured, and then he insisted that the immense crowd be moved back. He was acccmmodated, but his men failed to take their places at the bat. The umpire, after due notice, declared the game in favor of the Harrisburgers, by the score of 9 to 0. Kelly gave a serious blow to the State League by taking his club to Altoona, where it is scheduled to play on Friday and Saturday. The club was scheduled to play at Harrisburg today, but Kelly was so chagrined by his defeat that he declared his purpose not to allow the Harrisburg manager to make $500 with his assistance. He claims that the necessary police pro- tection had not been accorded his club. Outside the enthusiasm of the crowd it was one of the most orderly that has eve: witnessed a game on the Harrisburg grounds. Mike Kelly reached Altoona at midnight with his Allentown ball team, and says they were stoned off the field at Harris- burg by a mob. He received a telegram from President Johnson of the Allentown club, ordering him to return to Harrisburg to play there today. Effect of Yesterday's Games. The three games which were scheduled to be played by Philadelphia at Boston today, tomorrow and Saturday .have been trans- ferred to Philadelphia. This was occasioned by the burning of the grand stand and bleachers at the Boston Ball Park on Tues- day. Baltimore and Boston played at the | old brotherhood park in Boston yesterday, but as the accommodations are inadequate and the playing field in a poor condition, it was deemed best to play the games at Phil- adelphia. As Baltimore was defeated, while Phila- deiphia, for a third time, lowered the colors of New York, Manager Irwin’s men are once more in’ second place, and Pittsburg is tied with the monumental city team for third place. New York and Brooklyn meet for the first time today, and a great game is expected. These teams are now on even terms for seventh place, as are also Chicago and Louisville for the tenth position. Base Ball Notes. Washington plays in Baltimore today and at home with the Baltimores tomorrow. Owing to the fire in Boston the series with the Phillies has been transferred to the home of the latter club. The other games scheduled are New York at Brooklyn, Lou- isville at Pittsburg and Cleveland at Chi- cago. Manager Barnie has recalled his release of Tim O'Rourke. The Wilkesbarre club has signed Bill Brown of the Louisville club to play first base. He will report in a few weeks. On account of the death of a sister Center Fielder Hoy was unable to play with the | Cincinnatis yesterday. | First Baseman Miller of Pittsburg was | presented with a floral horseshoe by his Cleveland admirers during yesterday’s | game. That catch by Abbey will go on record as the greatest ever seen at Eastern Park, Brooklyn. Such plays are becoming the daily routine of Schmelz’s journalistic fielder. The Georgetown University nine defeated the University of Virginia nine yesterday at National Park by 20 tov. The teams are | ted for the southern championship, each having won one.

The second day of the great international regatta at Austin, Tex., was a grand suc- cess. Fully 3,000 persons witnessed it. The principal event of the day was the profes- sional quarter-mile dash straightaway for $100. Entries: Jake Gaudaur, E. Durnan, Ed. Rogers, A. J. Rice, Harry Parker, H. Peter- son, John Teemer, George Hosmer and Fred. Plaisted. The race was a terrific one, the men bending to their oars with such force that they made the boats fairly leap out of the ater. Gaudaur gained the lead at the start and held it down to the finish, though Peterson pushed him very hard at the fin- ish, coming a close second, the balance being scattered. Time, 1.14 1-2. The senior four-oared mile-and-a-half race, with turn, between the Modoc Row- ing Club of St. Louis and the Louisiana Boat Club of New Orleans was a hotly con- testel one, the Modocs winning by two lengths. Time, 10.12. In the three-mile double scull race, open to professionals only, Gaudaur and Durnan were classed against Teemer and Hosmer. The purse was $500, and the men worked for it. Their leads changed several times dur- ing the run, but Gaudaur and Durnan finally came over the line ten feet in the lead. Time, 19.08 3-4. FIGHTING THE DWYERS. The “Pool Room Kin De Lacey, Wins the First Round. Pete De Lacey, the bookmaker, who has started out to make it uncomfortable for the Dwyer brothers, had an inning yester- day in the Adams street police court,Brook- lyn, where Phil. Dwyer, president of the Brooklyn Jockey Club, was arraigned on the charge of maintaining and conducting a lottery at the Gravesend race track. Dwyer plead not guilty, and was held in $1,000 for examination at 10 o'clock this morning. De Lacey was not in court himself, but regards the arrest of Dwyer as a victory for his side. Whether he succeeds or not in se- curing Dwyer’s conviction on the charge, he will, he says, continue to have the race track men arrested every time there is a stake race at the Gravesend track. He will not stop even at arresting the proprietors of the course, but may seize the horses qvartered there as implements of the leged lottery. Without horses there can’t be any horse racing. While the attendance at the track Tues- day shows conclusively that there are a gteat many lovers of the sport, De Lacey has a very formidable weapon to fight with in the decision of Judge Pryor of the court of common pleas. It is his intention to get a decision on the point as to the constitu- tionality of the Ives law in the state. Lawyers of high standing have declared that it is clearly unconstitutional, and that racing properly a lottery; but whether the courts will help De Lacey to continue his war on the race track owners cannot be known. But it is conteded that De Lacey is a good fighter, even though his motive is revenge for the destruction of his own business. He displayed good fighting qualities when he rendered practically worthless the racing property of the Dwy- ers at Elizabeth, N. J. His contention is that there is no more warrant for racing in the laws of New York than in those of New Jersey. Trotting for Valuable Stakes. ‘The list of the forty-four entries for the two-year-old Futurity trotting stake at the August meeting at Terre Haute has been announced. There were 400 entries at the beginning, and as there is only one more payment to be made, it is expected that not less than twenty-five horses will appear on the track the day of the race. The forty- four include representatives of all the best breeds. The stake is now worth $23,000, and will have an aggregate value of at least HE SAVED MAJ. HERBERT'S LIFE. And Now Secretary Hertcot May Do Something for J. Newcombe. A Vallejo, Cal., special says: Secretary Herbert today made a call upon Jonathan Newcombe, an old Union soldier, whom he met at the battle of Fair Oaks. The Sec- retary was then major of the eighth Ala- bama regiment and Newcombe was a pri- vate in the third Maine volunteers. Herbert was taken prisoner and placed in charge of Newcombe. In his exasperation he drew his revolver and fired at a private, who was about to bayonet him when Newcombe par- ried the blow and claimed Herbert as his prisoner, thus saving his life. Mr. Newcombe is a calker, and is em- ployed at the navy yard occasionally. He has a family, and is highly respected. It is not unlikely that he may be given steady employment at Secretary Herbert's sugges- tion. The Cleveland Conference. The mine operators met at Cleveland last night and received the report of their rep- resentatives on the joint scale committee, which was that no agreement could be reached with the miners on the committee. The operators approved their action in the committee and gave them a vote of confi- dence. Therefore the wage question will be thrown back on the general convention. ——_-+e+- Investigating Armor Plate Frauds. The naval board in investigating the so-called armor plate frauds at Carnegie’s steel works arrived at Pittsburg yesterday from Washington and at once reopened the examination. The board is meeting at Homestead and will probably be in ses- sion the rest of the week. As before, the investigation is being held behind closed doors. a Hungary’s premier, instead of acknowl- edging defeat by resigning, will send the civil marriage bill to the magnates again, expecting them to pass It. ‘In 1886, much from cancer eee of the mouth.

SWIFT SPECIFIC CO., Atiaata, Ga, EVENING STAR, THURSDAY, MAY 1 |IN HOTEL CORRIDORS. “An amendment has been proposed to the constitution of the state of Louisiana, which will be considered in the constitu- tional convention about to be held,” said L, F. Redman of Shreveport at the Ebbitt last night. “It relates to the qualifications of voters, and I believe that a similar clause in the constitutions of all the states would infinitely improve the entire political system of the whole country, The main part of the proposed amendment provides that a voter shall be able to read the con- stitution of the state of Louisiana in his mother tongue, or shall be the bona fide owner of property, real or personal, located in Louisiana, and assessed to the voter for the year next preceding the election at a cash valuation of $200. It will be seen that the proposition includes both educational and property-owning qualifications, or either of them, for intending voters. A great many Louisianians speak only French. There is a very large Italian col- ony in New Orleans, and there are Ger- mans scattered all over the state. If they can read the constitution in their own language and understand it, and, as a matter of course, they can do so from such @ perusal, they will be qualified to assist in the government of the state, while those who have not had the advantages of edu- cation, but who have accumulated small holdings by reason of their industry and attention to business, will also have a right to help govern their own affairs. I repeat that such a provision as that in the constitutions of the several states of the Union would improve the political sys- tem of the country, and if, in addition to this, the Australian ballot system was brought into universal use, there is no tell- ing how efficacious the combination will become.”” “Few people have any idea of the real state of affairs existing in the seventh district of Kentucky at the present time,” said Nelson Davis of Winchester at La Normandie yesterday. “The sensational appearance of Col. Breckinridge at Lexing- ton and the pyrotechnic display of elo- quence with which he opened his campaign for renomination are familiar to the people of the east, and the meeting held by those who oppose his further recognition in the political or social Iffe of the blue grass state, which was held a night or two ago, is equally well known to the newspaper readers hereabout. But the bitterness that exists between the old-time friends of Breckinridge and those of his political democratic opponents, Owens and Settle, is deep and widespread. In many cases families are divided against each other. Fathers who have known Col. Breckinridge for many years, and place their fealty and friendship beyond their re- Pugnance to the colonel’s escapades, see their sons working for either Owens or Settle, and fiercely demanding the complete ostracism in every way of the silver- tongued. Intimate friends have fallen out on the Breckinridge issue, and I would not be surprised if a great deal of serious trouble grew out of the issue, which has completely obscured all others in that sec- tion of Kentucky.” F. O. Farrish has been a guest at the Riggs House for several days, and yester- day morning when he came downstairs in response to a card from Col. W. A. Merrill, he complained that he had passed a rest- less and uncomfortable night. “I can't understand it,” he remarked. “My room couldn’t be improved upon, I never slept in a more comfortable bed, my system was never in better condition and I have been entirely free from aches and pains of all description ever since I left home, But for the life of me I can’t sleep undisturb- edly. I wake up without any apparent rea- son, toss about for awhile and then drop off to sleep again, only to repeat the self- same program.” Col. Merrill inquired of him in which di- rection his head pointed when he lay down in his present quarters. Mr. Farrish’s de- scription of the location of his room and the way the bed was arranged in it discovered that his head pointed to the east when he went to bed. = it point that way when you are at home?" said Col. Merrill. Mr. Farrish thought for a moment, and then said that it did not; that his couch at home had {ts head to the north and its foot to the south. “It is not difficult,” said the colonel, to tell why you can’t sleep here in Washington. Turn your bed around tonight so that your head will be to the north and I promise you that you will have no difficulty in enjoying sound slumber. I don't know the physical reasons for it, but I have seen it tried over and over again where a person who has been accustomed to sleep with his head to- ward one point of the compass has changed it, either accidentally or intentionally, to another point, and has been unable to sleep, a@ renewal of the regular position has brought undisturbed dreams again. Pe: haps the magnetic current of the earth has something to do with it; but I am not suffi- ciently up in physics to give an opinion on this point; but the fact remains that a per- son who has been accustomed to sleep with his head toward any single point of the compass will, in almost every instance, find it impossible to repose comfortably when he goes to bed with his cranium in some other direction.” Mr. Farrish said he would try his friend's advice. This morning he came down firm im his belief that the colonel right. “I slept with my head to the north, as I do at home,” he announced to Proprietor De Witte, “and I slept like a top.” Wormley’s Hotel only needs the swish of the waves and a few bathing suits hanging out to dry to look like a slice of Atlantic City, there are such a number of the prom- irent citizens of that delightful resort now numbered among its guests. Such demo- cratic leaders as Col. John E. Mehrer,Chas, J. Collins, Chas. Rutter, Mark Malatesta, E. M. Collaty and James R. Doyle are among the number, and they are all here to urge the appointment of John M. Campbell as the man to lick the stamps on the let- ters which the summer sojourners send away to their sweltering brethren at home. “Campbell is a very popular fellow in At- lantic City, and some of his newspaper ac- complishments have been away up in the category of scoops,” said a well-known cor- respondent yesterday. ‘‘During the great storm of 1889, when for three eventful days in September Atlantic City was cut off from communication of every sort with the great world around it, and the whole country was quivering with excitement in the belief that the famous spot had been washed out of ex nce, Campbell made his way in a srrall boat through waves of prodigious power to the mainland.

All Sorts of Interesting Items From Down the River. The committee on light of the city council met last night, but no business of import- ance was transacted. It is thought that the new bridge across Hunting creek will be open for travel in a few days. The concert given for the benefit of the chapel in West End last night was well tended and a very pleasant entertainment throughout. There will be a game of base ball et the Eplscopat High School at 3 o'clock this af- lernoon between the High School boys and the Alexandria Athletics, Miss Grace Pierson, who has been visiting friends in this city, has returned to her home in Baltimore. The Shamrocks of Washington and a nine of “Commonwealers” from Coxey’s army will play a game of base ball at Riverside Park on Sunday. It is expected that quite a large crowd will witness it. Mr. J. T. Beckham, jr., has returned to Brandy Station, after a brief visit to his family in this city. Tibbie, the little six-year-old son of Mr. J. Carlin Creighton, strayed from home yes- terday with another youngster,and was not found until 6 o'clock in the afternoon,when he was found bathing in the run adjoining the national cemetery with some other small children. About midnight last night some one, un- known, attempted to effect entrance into the house of Mrs. John P. Rice, on the cor- ner of Fairfax and Queen streets. They were scared off, however, without being successful. Miss Alice Turner df Warrenton is visit- ing friends in this city. Rev. P. P. Phillipps of Berryville,who will take charge of St. Paul's Church on June 15, was in the city yesterday. He will prob- ably preach at St. Paul next Sunday morning, on his return from the Episcopal council at Richmond. The members of the fire department will provide themselves with handsome new uni- forms in a very few days, which will adi much to the appearance of the very efficient department. The mayor had before him for trial this morning the following parties: Robert Ar- nold and Mike McCann, charged with as- saulting and beating Kate Pinkney. They were fined $10 each. Fannie Cline and Alice Lee for disorderly conduct and abusive lan- guage were fined $2.50 each. Sam Tenny- son for habitual drunkenness was sent to jail for fifteen days to give him a chance to sober up. Thomas Washington for disor- derly conduct was fined $2.50. There was but one lodger at the station house last night. There was quite a lively time in the neigh- borhood of “Colross’ yesterday afternoon, and stones were flying in all directions. From what could be learned it appears that Kate Pinkney, a young colored woman, was passing Robert Arnold and Mike McCann, when they made some insulting remarks to her, which she resented, and they at once commenced pelting her with rocks, most of which struck her, several inflicting painful flesh wounds. She reported the matter to the police and they were arrested. The city fire department, together with the Alexandria Light Infantry and Bt.

One of the provisions of the Indian ap- Propriation bill is said to have the effect of placing Indian agents under civil service regulations. The bill contains the provision “that the commissioner of Indian affairs, with the approval of the Secretary of the Interior, may devolve the duties of any In- dian agency upon the superintendent of the Indian training school located at such agency; and the superintendent upon whom such duties devolve shall give bond, as other Indian agents.” i Superintendents are already under civil service regulations, so that the effect of the provision, if carried into effect, is to extend the civil service over such agencies as have @ superintendent serving as agent. Efforts have long been made by those interested in reforming the Indian service to have the agencies placed under the civil service, but thus far the effort has been in vain. The present provision in the bill is said to be a step toward a realization of this reform. ——__- e+ - OATES TO BE CHOSEN. A Majority of Votes the Alabama Convention.

Altenberger, who is now in custody at Troy, N. ¥., will be ex- tradited and placed on trial for murder in the first degree. Miss Rupp made an ante mortem, which corresponds with the ac- count already given of the shooting. Thus far Altenberger’s only explanation is that he shot her because she was a Protestant and he a Catholic, and he knew he could not marry her. ————————— Don’t be the Axe) Just’ keep in mind that the er acter ped- dier has \ “an axe to grind,” when he tells you that he has something | “as good as” or ‘the same as” Pearline. There can be but one reason—more profit to him by your use of the substitutes. But how is it with you? What reason can you have for wanting to take the risk? Certainly not economy— Pearline leads to the greatest economy in every direction— saves the most money, time, clothes and health. te your grocer sends you an imitation, be honest—send it back. 2 THE MONUMENTAL, Fashion Leaders in Fine Millinery.
