Beware of couterfelts.” PLEAS FOR ADMIRAL TING. He Will Be Continued Command of the Chinese Fleet. A dispatch from Tien Tsin says that an edict has been issued continuing Admiral ‘Ting in command of the Chinese fleet. The foreign officers of the fleet, it appears, sent to Prince Kung, president of the admiralty as well as president of the Tsung-Li-Ya- men, a unanimous protest against the pun- ishment of Admiral Ting, who has been blamed for not protecting the dock yard at Port Arthur against the Japanese fleet, as well as for the defeat of the Chinese fleet at the battle fought off the Yalu river, in which ergagement he was in command of the Chinese squadron. The foreign of- ficers declare that the charges against Admiral Ting are unjust and that they will resign if he is punished. The Chinese naval officers also sent a petition to Prince Kung asking for Admiral Ting’s retention. The Foo Chow clique, which ousted Ad- miral Lang, is now, the dispatch dds, conspiring against Admiral Ting, and is prompting the censors with false accu- sations in order to avenge the execution of their comrade, Capt. Fong, commander of the cruiser Chen-Yuen, who was exe- cuted early in October for cowardice in the battle off the Yalu river. Japanese cruisers have lately been ex- amining the Shang-Tung coast. They ap- peared to be selecting a landing place near Wei-Hai-Wel preparatory to attacking that place. Shao-Yeo-Llen, the late governor of For- mosa, who, with Chang-Yin-Houan, a member of the Tsung-Li-Yamen, was ap- pointed an imperial commissioner to treat for peace with Japan, has been found to be -imeligible for.that office, as he is ac- cused of having offered rewards while governor of Formosa for Japanese heads. ‘A dispatch from Pekin says: ‘American mediation proves to be but a formal com- pliance with the Tien Tsin treaty with- out any practical result. Hence China will dispatch a fresh mission, under American advice, and will endeavor to negotiate di- rect. ‘A dispatch from Shanghai says that the third Japanese army is reported to have landed west of Chefoo and to have cap: tured Lai Chow, a seaport town of China in the province of Chang Tung, on the south shore of the Gulf of Pechili. —ceo—___— A MARYLAND MYSTERY. Sudden Death of a Charles County Hotel Keeper. A special dispatch from La Plata, M to the Baltimore American, dated yester- day, says: The body of Mr. Fred. Farrall, the hotel keeper at Hughesville, Charles county, whose sudden death on Monday, December 17, was published at the time in the American, was exhumed today, and an autopsy made by Dr. E. M. Shaffer cf Washington, D. C., assisted by Drs. T. S. Owen and L. C. Carrico of this county. Since Mr. Farrall’s death suspicions have been aroused, and the belief is pretty gen- eral that his death was caused by foul means. On Friday last State's Attorney James F. Matthews went to Hughesville, where Mr. Farrall resided, to make an investigation, and, in the opinion of the state's attorney there were sufficient suspicious circum stances surrounding Mr. Farrall's death to warrant a thorough investigation, and he issued an order to summon a coroner's jury, and to have an autopsy made, which was done today. The body of the deceased was well pre- served, except a slight external discolora- tion, and the organs appeared to be in a perfectly normal condition. Dr. Shaffer took the stomach, kidneys, heart and brain from the body, and securely sealed and labeled them. They will be carried to Washington, where a chemical test will be made in search of poison, supposed to have been administered. His revort will be made in about ten days. The coroner in the case was Justice G. C. Burch, and the foreman adjourned the jury to meet when the chemist is ready to make his re- port, when, it is asserted, some startling evidence will be given. ———__+e+—____ A STARTLING ARRAIGNMENT. Report on Corruption in New Orleans’ Municipal Administration. ‘Whe grand jury of New Orleans, which has been in continuous session two months, made the final report yesterday. Judge Ferguson thanked the jurors for their ser- vices and the personal sacrifices they had made during the past two months and dir- charged the jury without date. ‘The report mentions the alarming extent to which wiliful perjury has increased; the large sums squandered in the new court- house and jail through jobbery or divided as spoils; the utter want of decency and self-respect manifested by indicted council- men; strongly condemns the mayor for not pending them pending their trials; re- marks upon the evidence of official corrup- tion, and recommends the closest scrutiny ef future ordinances, granting contracts and franchises. a The action of the police in the recent levee troubles 1s strongly condemned. Prize fighting, or so-caled glove contests, cught to be summarily suppressed. _ In reference to perjury, the jury says: “Willful perjury, for ‘the purpose of shielding criminals,is either becoming more frequent, or presenting a more alarming stage, and unless checked by stern meas- ures, will soon become an ordinary method of hiding crime and defeating the infliction of its penalties. “Your jury has been startled by the character of some evidence sworn to before it: evidence which went far enough to satisfy us that we were hot on the trail of bribers, but that was so guarded and wit- nesses coached as to stop just short of re- vealing the criminal and fixing on him the responsibilit tos Mr. William Cruikshank, who was run over Wednesday evening last, near the corner of 5th and G streets northwest, by a horse driven by a gentleman in a buggy, is still confined to his bed at his late trother’s residence, 1227 3ist street north- west, his injuries turning out to be more serious than at first supposed. your Institute, I ar le hernia. consulting ua.

E. Church Sunday school, Rev. James McLaren, pastor, to give a pleasing service at 6 o'clock this morning were fully appreciated by a large audience. ‘The sing- ing was excellent and the selections were taken from the books usually in service at the regular exercises of the school. ‘The sunrise prayer meeting at the Garden Memorial Presbyterian Church, Rev. J. B. North, pastor, at 7 o'clock this morning, was well attended. The exercises were conducted by Mr. C. O. Bohrer, president of the Young People’s Christian Endeavor Society, who was assisted by its members. ‘A special sermon, appropriate to the day, was preached at Campbell A. M. E. Church, Hillsdale, by the pastor, the Rev. F. M.

The Christmas services at the Congress Heights M. E. Church will take place Thursday night, instead of Wednesday night, as has been published, and an in- teresting program will be rendered. There are now being completed at the buildings which Dr. Godding, the superin- tendent, after many {utile attempts, suc- ceeded ‘in inducing Congress to make the necessary appropriation for. These are two hospitals for the epileptic insane, and a kitchen for their use and those patients who live in the Toner building. All will be equipped with the most modern appliances, and they will, it is expected, be ready for occupancy by early spring. It is intended in the new hospital structure to make pro- are quiet and orderly entirely from the noisy and the violent. The epileptic insane are a class who. reason of their infirmatives and peculias ities, are best cared for in distinct wards, and it was for this reason, largely, that | Dr. Godding asked for the new buildings. | The number of this class, now in the hos- pital is about 150, and it is extremely diffi- cult to provide for them properly where they are at present, viz. in wards with the rest of the insane, whose conditions are liable to be made worse by shock in witnessing their convulsions. Preparations are also being made for the completion of the electric plant, which is to cost $22,500, and which has been partly constructed, and in the spring to erect at least two cottages for the working ciass of those of the epileptic insane who prefer to engage in agricultural pursuit. ity this means comfortable provisions can be afford- ed to about thirty male patients. It is thought that in time such an agricultural colony will become entirely self-supporting and be a practical demonstration of the value of useful occupation for the chronic insane. separated — HYATTSVILLE. The several churches in this village were largely attended this morning, the services being especially interesting. The decora- tions of holly, evergreen, etc., were deauti- ful and artistic, and the music was of an excellent order. Midnight mass was sung at St. Jerome's Catholic Church last night, Rev. Father Johnson, celebrant. The aitar was elaborately bedecked with evergreen, through which shone the soft rays of the numerous candles. The choir, under the direction of Mr. George E. Riley, rendered the program, as published in The Star. At the fpiscopal Church the rerdos was nearly hidden by a profusion of ever- green and cut flowers, and a large wreath of holly and evergreen was artistically sus- pended over the altar. Rev. Mr. Todd, who for a number of years was rector of a parish in Charles county, preached an interesting and appropriate sermon, and the choir, under the leadership of Miss Minnie Moran, rendered choice music. At the Presbyterian and Methodist churches Rev. Mr. Livingston and Rey. Mr. Dorsey preached sermons suitable to the occasion, and the music rendered by the respective choirs was unusually good. The churches were also handsomely decorated. The Sunday school Christmas celebration of Hadaway Chapel M. E. Church South of Branchville was hel! at that place last evening, and was sely attended.

The Richest Woman in America Con- stantly Tormented by Fear. Mrs. Hetty Green, the richest woman in America, has brought suit for an account- ing against Henry A. Barling, the only surviving trustee of her father's estate, and the filing of the papers brings to light @ sensational story. A belief, firmly fixed, that a band of con- spirators took the life of her father, Ed- ward M. Robinson, and of her aunt, Sylvia Ann Howland, of New Bedford, years ago, and are now daily seeking her life and the life of her children, continually haunts her. Glass, she declares,"has been placed in her food not six months ago; blocks of wood and stones have been hurled at her from windows as she was passing on the side- walks, and on numerous occasions her life has been threatened. Whether or not Mrs. Green is the victim of a strange hallucination remains yet to be learned, but that her fears have incited her to lead the life of a recluse there can be no doubt. ‘The following is the story: Hetty Robinson was the favorite daugh- ter of one of the richest and most influen- Ual citizens of New Bedford. She was rear- ed at the home of her aunt, Miss Sylvia Ann Howland, who was also very wealthy, being reputed to be worth at least $4,000,000, In the early summer of 1865, Mr. Robinson went to New York on business, and while there was taken suddenly ill—so ill that his daughter was summoned to his bedside, where she found him in a critical condition. He told her that he was in the hands of a core conspirators who would kill him if possible. le cautioned her that she must guard her own lifeas he had left her all his propert He was very much worried about his will and finally sent for it to see if it was as he bad made it. Before the will reached him iis daughter found him badly wounded and with the bed clothes thoroughly satu- rated with his blood. He died wathout iag the will, and when, after his death, se will was produced it Was discovered ‘that Hetty was to receive only a small part of the estate. Soou after this Miss Howland, the aunt, died mysteriously, and of her $4,000,000 Hetty only received’ a small part. Evarts, Beaman “& Choate, counsel for Mr. Barling, have issued a statement deny- ing the above state of facis, and asserting that the suit is oue brought by the heirs of the late Edward Mott Robinson, to have the estate closed and the executors dis- charged. A LON -e@e— BUGGY RIDE. AU the Way From Galveston, To Galveston all the way from Philadel- phia in a buggy. Such is the feat per- termed by Mr. and Mrs. George Bell, who arrived in Galyeston the other afternoon. With only a lew dyilars, the resuit of the sale of household goods, he put his wife and baby in a two-seat canopy top buggy and started for Grimes county, Texas, where he had relatives. “We started en September 15 from Phila- deiphia and arrived here yesterday, you can figure out the time yourself,” said Mr. Bell to a Galveston News representative. “What was ce?

Enquirer tells this story Yo prove that the instinct of self-preserva- tion ts stronger than reason: “A man on a Lake Huron steamer had the only speci- men of black rattlesnake I have ever met with. It was atout tite size of an ordinary garter snake and as vicious as Satan. It was confined in a strong box covered with thick plate glass. When any one would touch the glass with his finger the snake would strike the under side opposite the finger as quickly as a stroxe of lightning. ‘The experimenter would always jerk away as suddenly. ‘There was not a man on board, however muscular and free from nervousness, who could keep his finger to the glass when the snake would strike, although knowing that {t could not pos- sibly touch him. Strong men would try ft again and again, certain of their ability to endure the test, but with the same re- sult.” pare igen Li Cook is Not Dying. A special from Muskogee, I.

He, in company with Bob Cook, Three-fingered Jack and Bill Dooley, rob- bed Frank Cash of his horse and saddle on December 22 five miles west of here. They were then west bound. Nothing has been heard from them since Cash's report. WHEN turn FRENCH DEPUTIES EXCITED. The Lie Passed During the Discussion of a Dill. The French government bill decided upon at a cabinet council yesterday making trea- son upon the part of any officer or private of the army punishable with death in time of peace as well as in time of war was in- troduced in the chamber of deputies later in the day by Gen. Mercier, the mintster of war. It was referred to the army com- mittee. A counter-measure was.subsequently in- troduced by M. Jaures, the socialist leader, to abolish the death penalty from the mili- tary code on the ground that this should be done, “since privates alone were put to death.” Prime Minister Dupuy moved the pre- vious question, and in doing so charged that the internationalists were attempting to undermine in the army. The govern- ment, he declared, made the question one of confidence. M. Jaures said it was audacious for the prime minister to refer to internationalism when the government had just endeavored to protect a gang of cosmopolitan exploit- ers from the manifest hostility of the cham- ber. ‘The reference to the government's support of the new agreement with the Southern Railway Company produced an uproar. Dr. ‘Barthou, independent — republican, shouted to M. Jaures: “You lie!” M. Jaures retorted: “The lie is not with us, but with the government, which is seek- ing to play a game of patriotism.” M. Brisson proposed that M. Jaures be temporarily expelled from the chamber for using such language, and the proposal was adopted by a large majority. M. Jaures left the chamber when the re- sult of the vote was announced, the mem- bers of the extreme left in the meantime protesting with the utmost vehemence against the action of the chamber. The uproar tinally became so great that the president suspended the sitting for five minutes. Upon the expiration of this time the sitting was resumed, and Premier Dupuy’s motion for the putting of the pre- vious question was carried by a vote of 437 to So. Amid great excitement the government's bill was then carried by an overwhelming majority, the vote standing 542 to 3. M. Jaures challenged Dr. Barthou to fight a duel. As the newspapers have been claiming that the accusation made against Capt. Dreyfus, who was sentenced to imprison- ment for life in a foreign fortress for trea- son, was based upon a document stolen from the German embassy, Count von Mun- ster, the German ambassador, publishes a note declaring in the most positive terms that the German embassy never directly or indirectly had any relations with Capt. Dreyfus and branding the statement that the document referred to was stolen from the German embassy as a malicious fabri- cation, -———_—_+ e+ TORTURED THE CAPTIVES. A Recent Development of the Georgia Race Troubles. A Quitman, Ga., dispatch sent last night ays: ‘The latest news from the race trouble in Brooks county is that bands of white men are catching the colored women amd men and applying tortures to make them reveal the hiding place of Waverly Pike, the man who caused the trouble and shooting of Isom. ‘The citizens are incensed, and unless the mob can be quelled will arm themselves and protect the colored men. The sheriff is organizing a posse to go to the seat of trouble. A large crowd of whites and blacks are here, the negroes appealing for protection. The excitement is intense. The colored men have left their homes in the upper portion of the county and say they are afraid to stay there. Gov. Atkinson received a telegram this evening, signed by the sheriff and several leading citizens, informing him that the trouble had grown too serious for the local authorities to cope with, and urging that he order out the militia at once. ‘This telegram also conveyed the informa- tion that four more mén had been killed since the first slaughter yesterday. The governor at once ordered the Waycross Rifles and Valdosta Videttes to the scene. Col. Varnado of the Videttes answered promptly that his company was ready to march, but stated that the situation was too menacing for them to handle alone and requested that the Thomasville Guards be ordered to co-operate with them. —_—__ce+ Written for The Evening Star.

Unpleasnnt Experiences That Spoil His Temper and the Flavor of His Breakfas' You wake up on a cold, gloomy morning, and, unless you are different from most of us, you wish you could sleep a little longer. But it won't do; business calls you. You shiver as you stand in the cold air of your bed room, and, while you are dressing yourself, you cough three or four times. If you hurry at your toflet the cough comes on again, and when you go out into the street after breakfast you have another paroxysin. Are you on the verge of galloping consumption? Not @ bit of it. But causes you may not have been conscious of have weaketed your whole body, and the cough 1s nature's call for reinforcements. Becanse it 1s not a melodious call is no reason why it should be neglected. A body tried by sud- den charges of temperature is best protected, not by overshoes and muftiers alone, but also by a medicinal stimulant of guaranteed purity. ‘The people who wrap and bundle themselves may hack and sneeze all winter.

Not because Duffy's Pure Malt acts exclusively ‘on the throat and lungs. Every organ in the body fecis its helpful influence.
