My nose was so inuch stuffed up that I could get no alr through It, which fecesstt my breathing through my mouth altogether. My head felt full and I had frequent headaches; my yoice was thick and nasal in tone. I could not even drink a glass of water without stopping to get my breath; my throat felt full of phlegm and very dry at night my sleep was broken and I would fre- quently wake up with a sense of suffocation. I had used home remedies, but they did me no good, as I could not reach the trouble. T was reading The Star one night, and read a testimcrial from one of Dr. Jordan's patients, when I dropped the paper and told my wife I was going up to see Dr. Jordan. He said the condition was cur- able, and I told him to go ahead. The first tr ment gave ine great relief, and 1n a compfrative short time I felt like a new man. My nose is now clearer than it has been for twenty-five yeara exposure docs not affect It. I sleep splendidly, and I would not take any an ount of money to be placed Lack in the condition I was before treatment. The treatment was mild, and T saw from the start that Dr. Jordan knew his business. Dr. C. M. JORDAN, A graduate of the medical department of the New York, University of the City of 1421 F st. ow.

From a Disastrous rrow Escape Fire—Other Notes of an Inter- esting Character. Rev. Samuel /A. Wallace, who since his ordination has,been rector of Pohick Ep! copal Church, near this city, has tendered his resignationgsto take effect on January 1 next. This Was made necessary by his ‘having been élected to fill the chair of Greek at the Episcopal Theological Sem- irary near this. city, made vacant by the recent death of the late Dr. Kinloch N son. During the rectorship of Mr. W lace a comfortable rectory has been built and a parish hall is now being erected through the liberality of Mrs. Hearst, vice regent of the Mount Vernon Association from California. At Olivet, in the same parish, a very pretty little church has been built. This is located near Franconia sta- tion, on the Washington Southern railway. It is said that Rev. James Atkins of Dar- ling, S. C., will take charge of the parish temporarily. Hospital Sandan Sunday next will be “hospital Sunday, and the collections taken up in the various churches will be for the benefit of the Al- exandria Infirmary. As this institution is supported almost entirely by the public of this city it is earnestly hoped by the man- agement that the subscription this year will be as large, if not larger, than ever before. One has but to pay a short visit to that deserving institution to see the good work done there. During the past few months particularly it has rendered most efficient service, and there are many within its walls now who are reaping its benefits. The Thanksgiving donations of the people were large and greatly appre- clated. Lucky Eseap What might have been a disastrous fire, and in addition cavsed untold damage by water, at the works of the Alexandria Fertilizer and Chemical Company, on the correr of Princess and Lee streets, was averted by the presence of mind and cool- ness of Mr. George S. French, one of the proprietors, yesterday. Mr. French called the Columbia fire company and stated that the building was on fire and asked that severel sections of hose be sent at once to the scene without turning in an alarm. ‘The hose was taken down by Driver Tay- ler, who attached it to a plug, and as the pressure is very strong at this point no steam was necessary. The fire was qui extinguished with but small damage. County Court. At yesterday's session of the Alexandria county court, with Judge D. M. Chiches- ter presiding, Robert Veitch was appointed assessor for the county. He qualified and gave the necessary bond. J. O. Sawyer was appointed a special constable. R. R. Veitch, B. T. Sisson, W.

Gen, Anderson has issued orders disbanding infantry com- panles at Pulaski, Pocahontas and Chat- ham, troop @ of Richmond, troop F at Manchester, and, battery D at Lynchburg. It has also been grdered that the Tollowing commands report for inspection at the end of sixty days, with a view to disbandment, unless they ave recruited in the meantime to a state of efliciency: Infantry companies at Radford’ and Abingdon, troop C at Lynchburg, troop H of Henrico, colored in- fantry company b at Fredericksburg, and colored intamtry, companies & and E at Norfolk.

Music and dancing served to entertain the very large number of ladies and gen- tlemen who were the guests of the Arion Singing Society lust night at Odd Fellows’ Hall, on 7th street.

The Coney Island Jockey Club decided yesterday tnat the Suburban, Futurity and Realization stakes shall be run next sea- son, as in the past, unless legislation at Albany this winter shall make it impos- sible. The following was given at the rooms of the club: “The racing season at Sheepshead Bay next summer will be all arranged for, and then left in abeyance until after the meet- ing of the next legislature. If the legisla- tors do not make racing a misdemeanor, there will be racing at Sheepshead Bay next season. - “While entries will only be received sub- Ject to the conditions set forth in the reso- lution, there is probably little doubt among competent turf authorities that the anti- gambling amendment will be so constructed as to allow entrance fees and sweepstake events. If such 1s the case there will be a Suburban, a futurity and a Realization stake in 1 eee SONS OF THE REVOLUTION. New Officers Elected at Last Night's Meeting. The Sons of the Revolution gathered last evening in the parlors of Wormley’s Hotel to transact annual business and to have a good time generally. The attendance was very large, and the reports submitted were assuring of a promising future for the or- ganization. The minutes of the last meeting were read and adopted, and then President Lewis J. Davis presented the annual report of the board of directors. According to the directors, the Washington branch of the Sons of the Revolution ranks third in seniority and membership. It was organ- ized March 11, 1889, and the total member- ship now is 209, the only similar organ tions outranking it being those in New York and Pennsylvania. A history of the holidays patriotically commemorated dur- ing the past yeas by the society, and also by the Sons*of the American Revolution and the Daughters of the Revolution, is in- cluded in the report, which expresses the hope for a consolidation in the near fu- ture of the Sons of the Revolution and the Sons of the American Revolution, 'The®re- port further states that the organization has no outstanding Nabilities; that there is a good-sized balance in the treasury, and that a generous supply of new books has been added to the library. The constitution was amended so as to authorize three additional officers. The election of officers for the ensuing year was next in order, and, after considerable good-natured wrangling, the following were chosen: Lewis J. Davis, president; David J. Brewer. vice president; Chas. L. Gurley, secretary; Alexander B. Legard, treasurer; William H. Lowdermilk, registrar, and D: W. Flagiar, Gaillard Hunt, Albion K, Har- ris, Lewis Blackford, Chas. H.

IMPORTANT DECISIONS, Those Handed Down by Court of Ap- peals Yesterday, Among the decisions handed down in the Court of Appeals yesterday afternoon were those in the Ruppert and Moore will cases, the judgment of the lower court being re- versed in each instance. In the first case, that of the controversy over the will of the late Christian Ruppert, in which certain relatives of the testator contested the will on the ground of undue influence, the judg- ment below was in favor of the validity of the will. Numercus exceptions were taken, on which the appeal based, but the Court of Appeals yesterday reversed the judgment below and remanded the case for @ new trial, on the ground that Judge Bradley had erred in commenting upon one of the witnesses, one Upmann, f his charge to the jury with respect to Up- mann’s testimony, holding such error suifi- clent for a reversal of the judgment be- low. In the Moore case the controversy was over the will of the late David Moore, who died about ten years ago. By the pro- visions of the will the testator’s son,James, and a daughter, Mrs. Annie E. Barbour, were made the beneficiaries, the latter re- ceiving the bulk, it is said. The son made no objections to the will, but after his death his children began a suit of eject- ment against Mrs. Barbour, claiming that the will of their grandfather was an in- valid one. The jury returned a verdict in their favor, and the case was appealed. Judge Bradiey, in the court below, refused to instruct the jury that the burden of proof was on the attacking parties, and that ruling the appellate court reverses, also holding that on the reasonableness or unreasonableness of the will the matter Was too broadly submitted to the jury. A decision was also handed down in the case of the Portsmouth (N. H.) Savings Bank against Theodore Wilson, in which the judgment below, in favor of Wilson, was reversed. Suit was brought to recover payment of a note of $2,500, which Wilson had indorsed under a printed line which read: “Liable on demand or without no- tice.” He claimed, when the note was dis- honored, that he did not notice the printed waiver of notice and signed the note in ig- norance of that notice. The Court of Ap- peals holds that he could not plead such ignorance or negligence. ————= Opposition to the Medical Bill. “The Kclectic Medical Society decided yes- terday at a meeting held in Dr. T. A. Bland’s office, at 1121 10th street north- west, to oppose the passage of the bill to govern the practice of medicine in the District of Columbia introduced in Con- gress last session.
