Now Ordered by Physicians Everywhere in March. e ‘Ah! what aval the largest gifts of heaven When drooping health and sptrits go amiss? How tasteless, then, whatever can be given; Health is the vital principle of: bliss. ‘Weak, tired-out men-and women with nerves ‘“‘un- Prung” and badly nourished need Paine’s celery mponnd. They are especially. urged to take it juring these early spring days of March and April, when the 1s most susceptible to its strengthen- ing influence. Of the thousands of men and women with brains nd hands all day actively engaged, but whose phy- sical powers are little used, who imagine thenf selves more dangerously sick than they are, the Yast majority are merely reduced in strength and spirits, und need nothing but a vigorous tonle in th ate their tired nerves. ‘They x Paine’s celery compound. It exactly fills their need. ‘The infirmities peculiar to the aged come from nating blood and the tardy, scanty production erve force. They should take Paine’s celery pound--there {8 no time so favorable as March. ‘The rheumatiam, neuralgia, sleeplessness and lack of strength that Paine’s celery compound so rapidly dispels are thus found to be mere temporary condi- tions to whleh thelr time of Iife is Hable, and the cause of needless arxiety.

CARDIN A prominent medical practiticner recently sald hat during the last fifteen years he has noted bo less than seventy-three cases of deaths of elderly persons resulting from running after street tr. No elderly person should ever run or exercise With unusual violence. Those doing so take thelr lives in their hands, since no one can tell the exact condition of the walls of the heart. When past fifty years of ago the cardiac struct- fire 1s lable to give way any hour by reason of fnnsual exertion. ‘The trouble is that the walls Of the heart become friable, and subject to rup- ture with age. The cartiligenous structure es- ially appreximates cssification, and even the urely muscular cardial fiber loses much of its elasticity as old age creeps on. Cardine, the extract of the heart of the ox, re- fards this decay of the tissues of the human heart, and strengthens and makes elastic again {he walls of this vital organ. It bas never failed fo strengthen @ weak heart, to correct irregular Retion and functional derangement caused by ex- tessive use of tobacco, dyspepsia, nervous pros- fration and general debility. An impoverished rondition of the blood ts cured, and dropsy, as {well as Bright's disease of the kidneys, is alle- {ated by this organic extract. CARDINE 1s the sterilized extract of the heart Df the ox, and one of the famous Animal Extracts Prepared under the formula of DR. WM. A. HAMMOND.

Tim Hurst, the umpire, referee and all- round sport, is a great practical joker. Yesterday, while in a friendly way guying Billy Barnie about the time Louisville lost twenty-four straight, he told of the follow- ing trick: “I remember, Bill, when you finally won that game. It was against Pittsburg, and the hoodoo was there, sure as fate. Connie Mack was catching for Pittsburg. You know that trick he has of shoving his glove under the batter's bat and elevating it a few inches so that the ball can glide ufider and the umpire can shout one strike. “Well, I was onto him. You had two men on bases, and Connie Mack pushed the bat up—I forgot who was handling it. I told him to quit, and he apologized by saying, ‘It was an accident; you know, I just fight the ball.’ If he fought it again that way, I warned him, there would be trouble. The next good one was lined out, and the men on third and second scored, and Louisville won. “Yes, that’s an old trick, but it’s not often practiced. Mack is the cleverest'man at it. If a batsman gets onto it he is Hable to hit the catcher on the fingers, or acci- dentally on the head. The gloves are so big, you see, the catcher is protected, and you can’t hurt him unless, of course, it is designedly.” 5 Washington Players Released. Campau, Dugdale, Haddock, Thompson and Wynne have been released by the Washington Base Ball Club. Shuffe Board Tournament. Some of the bookmakers at Alexander Island are engaged in a shuffleboard tour- Nament, and some good shots have been made. The participants include Jack and Ben White, Joe Vendig, Ike Hakelberg, George Grice,’ Will and Henry Stokes, Jake London, Al. Slofel, Charlie Pfaff, AL Ul- rick and Billy O’Brien. Only One Favorite Won. Ten bookmakers started in the scramble with the talent at Alexander Island yesterday, and when the wire was reach- ed the aforesaid talent was several lengths to the bad, but one favorite, Dillon J., at 2 to 1, securing a bracket. The track was fast, a very large crowd was present, and the racing was about the best of the pres- ent meeting. Quite a number of owners were greatly startied and alarmed because of a notice posted yesterday by the club, to the effect that hereafter all dogs found running at large would be shot. Their fears were removed, however, when it wes explained that an exception would be made in favor of those starting in the various events. The winners were: Elmstone, 10 to 1; Dillon J., 2 to 1; Lillipute, 5 to 1; Can- adian, 3 to 1; and Doc. Birch, 8 to 1. Capt. Haff Denies. The statement sent out from Rockland, Me., that Capt. Haff has been éngaged to command the new cup defender by the Iselin-Morgan syndicate is denied by the captain. He admits that his trip to Maine is for the purpose of securing a crew, but he refuses to disclose’ what craft they are for. He ig looking for twenty-five good sailors and will probably take natives of Deer Isle or vicinity. The Orioles’ Combine. Jennings, Baltimore's shortstop, writes that he, Kelley, Brodie, Keeler and Mc- Graw are determined to hold out for the salary demanded by them, and that rather than give in they will join some minor league team. Hanlon’s offer of an increase of 3500 on last year's salary is not deemed sufficient. Chess Notes. A private dispatch has arrived in New York clty from London, according to which the London press is favorably com- menting upon Steinitz’s challenge to play two games by cable with each of the fol- lowing London experts: Gunsberg, Lasker, Blackburne, Mason and Teichmann. Sir George Newnes, baronet, M. P., has cabled to the Manhattan Chess Club of New York that Dr. Ballard of the St. George's Cness Club has consented to act as the Manhattan's representative in Lon- don during the cable chess match on Sat- urday. Prof. Isaac Rice of New York will represent the British Chess Club in Ameri- ca. The Stolen Race Bill. A special legislative committee investi- gated the theft of the Roby racing bill, at Indianapolis. Copying Clerk Egnew testi- fied that he had been approached by A. F. Knott of Hammond, who offered him $500 if he would “lose” the bill. Egnew reported the matter to Secretary Brown of the house. The L. A. W. Organ. The National Assembly of the League of American Wheelmen has awarded the con- tract for publishirg the L. A. W. Bulletin to Sterling Elliott of Boston. An amend- ment to the constitution was adopted, pro- viding that the annual dues should be re- duced to 75 cents. President Willison an- nounced the following chairmen of commit- tees: Highways, Isaac B. Potter of New York; rules and regulations, Howard E. Raymond of Chicago; transportation, Wil- liam M. Brewster of St. Louis. Lectures on Ethics. Prof. Sterrett of Columbian University be- gan yesterday @ course of Wednesday noon lectures in Epiphany assembly room on the subject of Christian ethics. Yes- terday’s theme was the theory of ethics. He said moral good must lead to a good end and the end of moral life is under- stood to be life hereafter. The chief good of than, he urged, was to know Himself and make the most and best of himself. In this way society would be saved. He con- trasted various systems of ethical sofduct with that which is taught by Christianity. —_———__—_ What the Socialist Wants. Prof. Adams’ second lecture in the School of Ethics yesterday afternoon dealt with scclalism as a social theory. He declared that socialism was a protest against the political economy of Adam Smith and John Stuart Mill. It denies broadly many of the fundamental propositions of these writ- ers, as, for instance, that competition is a social blessing. The socialist says compe- titicn does not effect him benevolently, on the contrary his impression is strong that it has had a malevolent influence upon his condition. As to another point the socialist urges that capital is not a private power, but is a socla] force affeoting all, and the public has rights over it. Political berty does not assure the socialist of social or industrial liberty. He may be a free man as to his franchise and a slave as to his day’s wage. The socialist insists on more than co-operation—a participation in in- dustrial property through state ownership or control. ——.—__. Could Stand It No Longer. A man, who, from papers found on his body, 1s supposed to haye been William Simon, a guest of the Vanderbilt Hotel, committed suicide in front of the Museum of Arts building in Central Park, New York, last night, by shooting himself twice in the head. In the inside pocket of his coat was a postal card addressed to Dr. A. Rixa, and on the back of the card was written the following: “I hope when this reaches you I will at last be at rest. I have tried my utmost to overcome my un- happy life, but it Is getting worse every day. I cannot stand it any longer.” ARE YOU A SUFFERER From Rheumatism or Neuralgia? E. P. Tayer of East Nassau, N. ¥., says: “I wish {t possible to speak personally With every tim, for 1 would tell them of my ter- aud the relief and cure I found in Dr. Kennedy's Favorite Remedy. My condition at time L began its use, seemed hopeless. I had ed for fifteen years’ with inflammatory rheu- matism. My physician said I would be a eripple for life, but it was not ordained that way, for I had aot used Favorite Remedy long before I was convinced that it was the right medicine, and in a short while I was cured.” Solomon Davis of North Kortright, N. ¥., suf- fered from neuralgia and loss of sleep, as is often the case with elderly people, says: “I found that Favorite Remedy relieved the bowels, improved the circulation of the blood, and the old pain left me altogether.’” ‘One of Washington's physicians recently said: “There no reason in suffering with rheuma- tism or neuralgia, for Dr. Kennedy's Favorite Remedy will cure them.” Druggists sell it. THE EVENING STAR, THURSDAY, MARCH 7, 1895—TWELVE PAGES. a1 A JOINT INSTALLATION. The Grand Army and the Woman’s Relief Corps Meet Together. - The installation of the officers-elect of the Department of the Potomac, Grand Army of the Republic, and of the Depart- ment of the Potomac, Woman’s Relief Corps, auxiliary to the Grand Army, took Place jointly last night at the First Pres- byterian Church. The officers installed were: Grand Army of the Republic—De- partment commander, Marion T. Anderson; senior vice commander, John H. Howlett; junior vice commander, William W. Cham- bers; medical director, Dr. A. C. Adams; chaplain, Rev. John D. Smith; council of administration, A. N. Thompson, L. P. Williams, E. C. Grumley, S.W. Bunyea and J. H. Dony; delegates to the national en- campment, Green Clay Smith, William H. Horn, Newton Ferree and George J. P. Wood; alternates to national encampment, William H. Meyer, Charles F. Mansfield, H. 8. Linker and J. R. Hayes. Woman’s Relief Corps—Department’ president, Anna M. Hamilton; senior vice president, Eliza- beth Martis; junior vice president, Ruth Roberts; treasurer, Miranda Fuller; chap- lain, Mary M. North; executive board of department council, Mrs. Rose, Mrs. Ford- ham, Mrs. A. V. Thompkins, Eva Chase and Ada Decker; delegate, Sarah J. Niel; alternate, Mrs. Anna Devoe. The church was elaborately decorated. ‘Two silken American ensigns were crossed above the pulpit and under them-was sus- pended, in heroic size, the regulation Grand Army badge. A star of bunting with a flag projecting from each angle embellish- ed either side of the pulpit. Bunting was prodigally looped along the north and south walls; the side chandeliers were draped in tri-color and the choir gal- lery was veiled in national hues. At 7:45 o’clock the organist of the church struck up ‘‘Reveille,” and as the familiar call welled through the church, the Old Guard filed in, presented arms and took seats réserved for them. Then the organ pealed forth a pot pourri of national marches, _ conspicuous which were “Tramp! ‘ramp! Tram ‘Rally "Round the Flag,” “John Brown” and “Johnnie Comes Marching Home.” The organist filled in a slight hitch with Chopin’s Noc- turne in E. Then entered the department officers and the officers-elect. LaFayette Post came in as an _organi- zation. The church filled up and Chaplain Stratton of LaFayette Post mounted the platform and announced that the formal exercises would open with the singing of “The Star Spangled Banner,” by the Grand Army Musical Union, under the leadership of Comrade Tracy. This was done. Department Commander Nathan Bick- ford called the assemblage to order and invited the proper dignitaries of the allied organizations to seats on the platform. In the brief announcement which he made as to the purpose of the meeting, he said that they met in toyalty, fraternity and truth. The department chaplain rendered the invocation. The Mount Pleasant Drum and Bugle Corps was ‘scheduled for the next number, but because of some misun- derstanding the boys did not appear. Commander Bickford, through courtesy to the sex of the members of the Woman’s Relief Corps, gave them the right of way in the ceremonies of installation and yield- ed the gavel to the department president, W. R. C., who in turn yielded it to Mrs. Emma R. Wallace of Chicago, national president, who installed the dzpartment of- ficers-elect. Mrs. Bross, national secretary, acted as conductor. The ceremony of in- stallation was performed according to rit- ual. The new president received some flow- ers and acknowledged the honor and ap- plausé as was meet. The installation of the officers-elect of the G. A. R. was performed by Past De- partment Commander S. S. Burdett. Amer- ica was sung by the G. A. R. Musical Union and the address of the evening was delivered by Prof. Goldwin Smith. His re- marks called forth loud applause. ——— MODEL MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT. Washington is One of the Best Gov- 5 .erned Cities, From the Philadelphia Telegraph. One of the best-governed cities on the American continent is Washington. The national capital is governed by a-board of Commissioners appointed by ‘the Presi- dent. The members are appointed gener- ally not because they are politicians, but because they are especially competent to discharge the especial duties assigned them. There Is no such thing as a political “ring” or “combine” in that city at this time. Law and order are admirably pre- served. The police force is particularly effi- cient. The water supply is good, all edu- cational provisions admirable. The streets are exceptionally well paved, lighted, and cleaned, and in the way of municipal im- provements every dollar spent represents one hundred cents or more of value re- ceived. Those who have control of the municipal government have pride in their work; public spirit alone actuates them in the performance of their duties. The Washington board of trade, a purely civic body, composed of the most repre- sentative citizens, has recently adopted a resolution recommending that Congress shall pass an act placing all municipal cm- ployes, of all grades, upon the civil service list. As all employes of the city are em- ployes of the federal government, it is in the power of Congress to accede to this re- quest. There is less reason for doing it in that than in any other American city, for the reason that politics has less to do with the government and those who administer its affairs than with those of other muni- cipalities. But the board of trade has wisely determined to provide against the pessibility of a change which would put the government under the control of the practical politicians. One President succeeding another, whether republican or democratic, has been exceedingly careful in the appoint- ment of the Board of Commissioners; but lest one of their successors should be less careful and put upon the board some men who would be perniciously active in poli- tics and revolutionize the municipal gov- er..ment by filling the offices and the little places in the departments with their henchmen, the board of trade has resolved to make removals except for cause impos- sible. All employes, no matter how humble or unimportant their work may be, are to be obliged to pass a civil service examina- tion, by which their competency, including their general fitness, may be established. So far as municipal government is con- cerned, the best results can never be at- tained without resort to some such plan as this. Recent disclosures in New York have shown what are the likely, or certain, con- sequences of a police force chosen by the political bosses. The worst of our munici- pal government is due to officers, employes of all ranks, being chosen by political man- agers. Out of that system all sorts of cor- ruption and jobbery grow. No political “ring” is possible in Washington or any- where so long as those in control cannot dispense the patronage to their followers; they can have no followers to sustain rings if they cannot have crowds of henchmen under hire and salary. Political bossism subsists only through its ability to control the offices, to choose the hosts of the city’s employes. These latter, when owing their means of living to the controlling officers, become parts of the political machine, which is always so dangerous in municipal government. Take from the bosses the thousands of city employes and they will cease to be bosses. Police departments, fire departments, and all others are gener- ally in our American cities filled with the ward and precinct workers of this or that bess, and it is not surprising that they are no better than they are, or that they are largely compact political bodies, whose chief duty is not police or fire duty, but political work, When our cities change all this, municipal government will change for the better, and not till then. ——_+e+____ International Machinery Exhibit. Secretary Morton has been advised, through the Department of State, of an international exhibition of agricultural ma- chinery, to bo held in Vienna May 4, 5, 6 and 7, 1895. The lists for applicants for space from America will remain open until ‘April 13, 1895, and all exhibits must be in place the 30th of the same month. Ex- hibitors whose machines need power must supply their own motors, which wilk be re- garded as a parc of the exhibit. Exhibit- ors may sell machines, but none can be re- moved from the exhibition until its close. Arrangements have been made concerning free entry of all exhibits and privileges of transportation over the Austrian railways, and the Austrian government has request- ed this government to guarantee free re- entry of all exhibits from this country which may not be sold in Austria. ——__—-e.

A When Walter Myers, a colored boy, step- ped into the “Black ria” today to go to the Police Court, he bad serious doubts as to just when hg would return home from a trip to Albany., He had lived at the house of Widow Johnson, No. 1415 Maryland ave- nue northeast, and -had- been | criminally intimate with the widow's fifteen-year-old daughter. Instead of Judge Kimball speed- ing him on toward Albany, Prosecuting At- torney Mullowny consented to have the case settled in his room. Walter had done wrong, and he was willing to make amends, although he had no funds. He had Lawyer Ricks as his legal adviser. The only. way out of the difficulty, although he might get in a more serious one, was matrimony. “But the license costs $1,”the man’s coun- sel remarked. “Oh, if that’s the only thing in the way,” said Mr. Mullowny, “here's the dollar.” Detective Horne went to the city hall and soon returned with a piece of paper for which he had paid Mr. Mullowny’s big. silver dollar. Next jn order was a minister, and after a little delay, the Rev. Andrew Jackson, pastor of Mount Jezreel Baptist Church, appeared. His appearance was a signal for a stampede in the direction of the prosecuting attorney’s room, where Mr. Mullowny, dressed in his best suit of clothes, awaited the time when he would act as best man and get the benefit of thre experience in this direction before he ven- tures to become a Benedict. Preacher Andrew Jackson stood against the wall and looked over his glasses at the couple, while he asked some.questions, and then, after apologizing for the absence of his book, he announced that he would per- form the ceremony. When Walter’s time for saying “yes” came he answered in a manner indicating that he was happy at having the oppor- tunity to say it, but when the poorly clad pees was asked, her mother answered for er. Thus far the proceedings had amused the mixed assemblage, but when the preacher had said “Amen” he exhibited an interest in the matter. He wanted $2, but the bride and groom did not have 2 cents. “Take up a collection,” shouted Isaiah Lewis, a colored man, who does not attend the Rev. Jackson’s church. Lawyer Moss started the collection with 50 cents, and Lawyer Ricks then volun- teered to pass his silk hat. Reporter Hibbs gave 10 cents, Policeman Matthews parted with the car fare that had been given him, while Lawyer Ricks contributed 1 cent. : “Here's your wedding present,” said Frank Finley, who was in the audience, handing the girl a silver half dollar. “Don’t give it to the preacher,” chorused several of the spectators, but Sophia did not heed what was said, and gave the money over to the minister. When the silk hat had been empiied and the money counted the colored divine an- nounced that he wanted 38 cents more, and this Mr. Ricks contributed. This satisfied the minister and the wedding party dis- persed. —_——.—__ New Anti-Lottery Law. In the opinion of postal officials, the anti- lottery act passed by Congress just before adjournment will have a far-reaching effect in suppressing lottery schemes in this country. Its provisions are expected to effectually prevent the conveyance of lot- tery matter between the states or its in- troduction here from other countries by express companies or common carriers. Through a limitation of jurisdiction the de- partment has been required to transport lottery and fraudulent matter and express money orders,for inyestment in these schemes, and yet been deprived of the revenues from'the postal money orders it would otherwise have ‘issued. The lottery companies have, corresponded with those interested under seal through the mails, and giving them instructions to use ex- press money orders. ‘This defect will be eradicated by the authority given in the act to the Postmaster General to refuse to deliver to persons who are found to be using the mails to defraud any class of mail matter, and to return it to senders marked “fraudulent.” * The Katahdin. That curious marine monster, the ram Katahdin, the only-one of her kind in the ravy, is reported as being nearly ready for her acceptance -trial. Her builders, the Bath Iron Works, have notified the Navy Department of her approaching readiness for trial. Arrangements are being made for her transfer to Long Island sound as 7oon as the ice that now surrounds her at Bath will permit the trip. The Katahdin is the invention of Admiral Ammen, now on the retired list of the navy. Her value as a naval adjunct lies mainly in her im- mense prow, powerfully supported, and de- signed at full speel to penetrate and sink the heaviest battleship. Her contract calls for a speed of seventeen knots an-hour, and her builders are confident that she can make it under ordinary conditions of wind and tide. ° Mr. Morley’s New Land Bill. The chief secretary for Ireland, Mr. John Morley, in the house of commons yesterday corrected a statement which he made in introducing the new Irish land bill on Monday last. He said that if a landlord did not assent to the price fixed by the land commission for a purchase by an evicted tenant or. tenants it was not intended that the whole trans- action should end. The government intend- ed that if a landlord did not object after a prescribed time an agreement to pur- chase would thereby be assumed to have been made, and in case of disagreement as to price the land commission must de- termine it. +o+—___.

The United States lighthouse tender “Vio- let,” with the- presidential party aboard, which left Washington on Tuesday morn- ing, arrived at Norfolk yesterday morning, about 3:30 o’clock, and proceeded directly to Portsmouth, where a stop was made at the United States buoy yard, opposite the navy yard. Very little interest was manifested in the arrival of the party, and when they reached the yard but two persons were at the dock. The President arose soon after leaving Portsmouth, and was on deck when the vessel reached the locks, shortly after 8 o'clock. On the deck, besides the chief magistrate of the nation, there were Dr. ‘O'Reilly of Washington, his physician; Commander George F. Wilde of the light- house board, and Commander Lambertson of the lighthouse district. The reporter. who was on hand saw the President on deck, and in answer to his inquiries was informed by Commander Lambertson that the President was feeling very well, and had greatly enjoyed his pleasant trip down the Bay and through Hampton Roads.. : The President, he said, had been greatly fatigued by the rush of business in the closing hours of the Congress, and Dr. O'Reilly, his physician, had recommended a brief rest and recuperation in outdoor exercise. * Commander Lambertson said the Presi- dent would return in eight or ten days and: hoped to have a very successful trip from a sportsman’s standpoint. * ‘The Presigent said nothing whatever, but was busily engaged in conversation with his physician during the time the Violet was passing. e Mr. Cleveland looked very well as he stood on deck in the bracing morning air. He wore a dark suit of heavf clothing, an : INCOME TAX RULINGS. The Acting Internal Revenue Com- missioner as to Exemptions, Acting Commissioner Wilson of the in- ternal revenue bureau has made the fol- lowing rulings on two important questions concerning exemptions from the income tax, recently submitted to the Treasury Department by a New York collector: First. Losses, elther incurred in trade or from bad debt, can be deducted from gross Income only when the business tran- saction, or debt, to which they refer was actually transacted or incurred within the year for which the return is made. All the losses sustained or ascertained, within the year 1594, from business or debts tran- sacted or contracted prior to the first day of January of said year are not due to the year 1894, and cannot be allowed as a de- duction in the income returns for that year. No distinction is made in the THE AFTER EPFHCTS Where Grip Almost Always Lodges ~-A Graphic Experience, Second. law between the salaries and incomes of bishops or clergymen and by any other persons. Therefore, all salaries and emolu- ments, and gifts of every character and kind, received by ‘bishops and clergymen, where the same in the aggregate exceeds the sum of $3,500, must be returned as in all other cases, and where the taxable limit is reached the excess over $4,000 must pay the tax of 2 per centum. —+2+—_____ A Reform by the Czar.

A Board Appointed to Report a Schedule of Punishments. ‘The last Congress passed an act provid-- ing that whenever by the articles of the navy the punishment under sentence of a court-martial is left to the discretion of the court that punishment in time of peace shall not be in excess of a limit prescribed by the President. Secretary Herbert has, accordingly, appointed a board of ‘naval officers to consider the subject and report | a schedule of punishments in such cases. The board will consist of Capt. J. A.
