The general term of the supreme court of New York has reversed the judgment of the lower court in the case of Erastus Wiman, and has granted him a new trial. Judge Vanbrunt ‘wrote the opinion of the court, Judge Follet dissenting. Two indictments were found against Erastus Wiman by the grand jury on February 21, 1894. The first charged him with having fcrged the name of E. W. Bullinger on a check for $5,000, drawn on February 6, 1893, by the cashier of R. G. Dun & Co., upon his direction, to the order of Bullinger. Dun & Co. were indebted to Bullinger for about $10,000 for materials purchased. It vas charged that Wiman, instead of transferring the check to Bul- Inger, forged Bullinger’s name on the back of the check, and deposited it in the bank to his own credit. The other indictment charged Wiman with having forged the name of Ogden Brower, the treasurer of the Campbell Printing Press and Manufacturing Com- pany, on a check for $5,580. This check was also drawn by the cashier of Dun & Co., on January 21, 1893, also upon Wi- man’s direction. The charge made as to this was that Wiman retained the check for his own use, and paid the Campbell Printing Press and Manufacturing Com- pany with his own notes. The trial on the indictments was had before Judge Ingra- ham and a jury in the court of oyer and terminer, and Wiman was found guilty on June 16, 1894. He was sentenced to im- prisonment in Sing Sing for five years and six months. The appeal to the general term of the supreme court was argued last January. Small Hope for Reina Regente. Little hope is held out for the safety of the Spanish warship Reina Regente by the officers of the steamer Mayfair, which arrived at Barcelona yesterday. The cap- tain of the Mayfair reports that the miss- ing man-of-war was sighted on the morn- ing of March 10 between Tarifa and Cape Espartel. The warship had lost her fun- nels and bridge and was laboring heavily in the high sea and fierce gale which were prevailing. She was apparently unmanage- able, but, as she did not ask for assistance, the Mayfair did not offer any. The cap- tain of the Mayfair is of the opinion that the Reina Regente could not long have survived the storm in the condition in which she appeared to be at the time he saw her. ———_+e+—____ No Protest at New York. Prof. Eakins, whose lectures on anatomy before the Drexel Institute mixed class at Philadelphia caused such indignation with a nude male model, lately finished a series of lectures in the New York Acad- emy of Design under the same conditions, before a class composed of young men and women. Superintendent Farrington of the academy says: “Last year the pro- fessor, before he lectured here, told the council that he proposed to use a nude model before the class. They agreed to it, providing the professor would announce and have the fact thoroughly understood, so that those who did not care to attend might stay away. He did so, and the re- sult was that but about 25 per cent of the young women remained to listen to the lecture.” —__+e-_____ There Will Be No Armistice. A St. Petersburg dispatch says: Informa- tion from a good source is to the effect that the peace negotiations between China and Japan will take place at Shimonoseki, on the southwest point of the island of Hondo. No armistice, it is said, will be proclaimed before the signing of the treaty of peace, Pie Was Not Enough. From the Boston Transcript.

These foreign contributions ‘have for sev- eral years formed dre of the most inter- esting featurés of thé Cosmos exhibitions, and it is confédently expected that when the gallery is opéhed on’the Sth of April an ar- ray of canv&ses wif be shown which would do credit to any city, and will in interest exceed any previous collection. . The many friends of Mr. Ross Turner, who commenced his brilliant art career in Washington, will be interested in learning that at a late electicn he was elected a member of the board of council of the city of Salem, his present residence. The studio receptions given annually by Walter Parris ‘are always enjoyable. The one given last Tuesday afforded a large number of people un opportunity to inspect the paintings, ‘studies, e‘c., made by the artist during the past year, and at the same time enjoy a finely arranged musical Program. The second and last reception will be given next Tyesday afternoon, and will take the place of the public exhibition which Mr. Parris expected to give later in the season. ° oe Mr. Ellicott is rapidly finishing the eques- trian statue of Gen. Hancock, upon which he has been engaged during the past year. In about six weeks it will be ready to be cast in plaster, after which it will be sent to the foundry in Connecticut to be cast in bronze. It is perhaps one of the finest models of the kind Mr. Ellicott has ever executed, and when completed will be placed in the reservation at the corner of Pennsylvania avenue and 7th street. oe March 27 has been decided upon for the production of “Scenes and Songs From Trilby.” which is to be given under the auspices of the Art Students’ League, and the Society of Washington Artists. The characters will be taken by members of the league and their friends; all the types depicted ir the wtovel as existing in the Paris of the lait generation having been found in ‘the Washington of today. The story wilt be toid in a series of tableaux, accompanied v a carefully arranged musi- eal progra:a. . oe Mrs. Le Gran? Johnston is working on a full length portrait, which she expects to have completed in time for the Cosmos exhibition. os A. G. Heatcn has just finished the large canvas, “Graduation Day,” upon which he has been engaged: so long. In it about seventy-five figurés are attractively group- ed. A large part of its interest centers in the fact that each person shown is the portrait of same frigad or acquaintance of the artist. Ina short time Mr. Heaton will commence another lasge canvas of an his- torical subject, the exact character of Which has nopyot bean fully. decided upon.

The topic for discussion will be “The Grace of Giving,” and the following speakers will make short ad- dresses on the following subjects: “Get and Gain,” George W. F. Swartzell, presi- dent of the Methodist Union; “Gain and Give,” Prof. Edward W. Williams of the Eastern High School, and “Give and Grow,” Rev. Charles F. Pate, pastor of North Capitol Church.

RADAM RIVALS PASTEUR. An Antiseptic Gas Harmless to Human Life, But Death to. Microbes. DISCOVERED AMID FLOWERS. ‘The Gas Saved the Life of the In- ventor—Now It is Saving the Lives of Thousands. ‘Twenty-five years ago William Radam, a young man then twenty-flve years old, landed in New York. He was a German, and could not speak English. He had been a soldier in the German army, and later had been in the employ of Em- reror Wiliam in the Imperial Gardens, Bellevue, he landed in America it was natural that he should take up the cultivation of flowers and trees as a business, He began in Austin, Texas, and in a few years became one of the leading florists and nurserymen of the west. Wealth came to him, but did not bring him happiness because, as bis material pos- sessions grew, bis health failed. To the original complaint of maliria had beea added rheumatism, then catarrh and finally consumption. After being treated by the most skillfol physicians for several Wm. Radam. years Mr. Radam found himself seven years ago virtually at the point of death. It was at this juncture that be thought of applying ‘the know!- edge he bad gained in the, treatment of disease in plants to the treatment of his own serious mala- dies. He had discovered that all the diseases of plants are caused by a sort of fermentation, and that wherever this fermentation appeared there were also germs or microbes. Following bis re- searches he discovered that these microbes were not only at the point: of apparent disease, but had permeated the very heart of the plant and were in every drop of the sap. He had discovered a conibination of antiseptic drugs that would kill these microbes and so bring the plants back to healthfal growth. This point was reached after many experiments, during one of which Mr. Ra- dam experienced a certain feeling of exhilaration. | Later he found that, after applying his remedy to.his plants, he, himself, was in better health. As the plants gained im strength so did he, and it was Dut natural that this coincidence should cause him to turn his attention from the health of the plants to-his-own health. He found that ‘the theory he knew to be correct in the case of the plants scem- ed to be equally reasonable when applied to him- self. The result was more and more careful ex- periments, which finally led to the discovery or invention of his now celebrated “Microbe Killer.”” All progressive physicians admit the correctness of the germ theory of disease. They know that all diseases are caused by germs or which lodge in some organ, get into the blood and multiply as if by magic. A weak spot in the body offers a place for the lodgment of a germ, and it is the propagation of germs and the consequent fermentation -in this spot that makes the many so-called diseases, If the microbes settle in a weak spot in the lungs the disease is-calied con- sumption. If they settle m the digestive organs and cause fermentation there the disease is called dyspepsia. Differing locations and different stages of de- cause of. all disease—microbes. These may be entirely exterminated by the use of William Ra- dam's “Microbe Killer. As soon as they are ccmpletely eradicated from the blood and from the spot where the fermentation fs, the — will disappear. There is no possibility of it lasting after the microbes are gone, because they, they alone, create it. Radam’s Microbe Killer should be taken three or four times a day in wine glass doses. It is not a strong medicine, and is made by impregnating pure water with various gases. It is pleasant to the taste. Perfectly harmless, and a positive and certain cure for all blood and chronie diseases.
