Imagination Fails to Describe the Suffering Caused by This Disease— The Story of Two Sufferers. No more d:plorable condition of the human body can be conceived than that of nervous prostration, when every nerve in the system seems to vie with the others to make you miscrable, when even the sunshine irritates you, when the happy prattle of the child distracts the loving parent, when life 1s haunted by a constant foreboding, when the light of life seems to turn a smoking smouldering flame of torture—that's part of nervous prostration, just a phase of this many-sided disease. As its grasp" upon you strengthens you lose, perhaps, the power to walk, to talk, to think, even the power to love. Death would be welcome, but, alas, it comes not until the cup of suffering is full to overflowing. Such has been the experience of Mr. W. Henrich Robb, No. 809 New Jersey avenue northwest, whose story is best told in his own words: “For a long time,’ said Mr. Robb, “I suffered hor- ribly with nervous prostration, and tried many phy- siclans and various highly recommended remedies Without experiencing the slightest benefit. Last fall my bustness called me to Pittsburg, Pa., and while there my mother, who remained in Washing- ton, heard, through a friend, of some remarkable cures made by Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills, and Wrote recommending that I should try them. To please my mother and not with any great expe tions that they would do me any good, I procured 4 box. At this time and for a long period previous my condition was most deplorable. My appetite was gone. I could not walk alone, and had I at- mpted to do so would have fallen. I did not take as many of the pills at a time as are direc ed by the makers of them, and had I done so I be- lieve tt would have been better for me, as I might have been relieved quicker. Nevertheless, after I had taken them for a month I felt stronger than I bad for many months, I should have mentioned that, until I had been taking the Pink Pils for about a week and for a loug time before, I had to force myse'f to eat, but after the first box of pills had been used by me, my appetite returned and I was able to eat ifke a horse. I should also have said that when I began taking the Pink Pills my legs had become as seemed to mo lke wooden legs, and my body was fast becoming in the same condition. The use of two boxes of Pink Pills, however, drove all this trouble away, and I regard them as a wonderful medicine.”” Miss C. E. Lewis, No. 1228 N st. northwest, ene of the teachers in Miss Payne's School Cookery, says: “Dr. Williams’ Medicine Compa Pink Pills haye been of great benefit to my healt Lam very much averse to talking for publication, but feel that I ought to testify bricfiy to the facts in my case. I had suffered from nervousness for a Jong time, and was all run down, I tried various remedies, but none of them did me any good. Last summer, while in Delaware, I was told of some wonderful cures that had been effec means of the Pink Pills, and bought a box. The helped me wonderfully, and I determined to con- tinue to use them after I shoull return to Wash- ington until I became entirely cured. After I bad used the first box, which was not until after I had come back to Washington, I found, to my great surprise, great difficulty in getting them in the city. At last, however, a druggist did succeed in getting me a box, and after taking them I have been entirely cured of what was a severe and pro- longed uttack of nervous prostration."* The foregoing 1s but two of many cures that have been credited to Dr. Willi Pink Pills for Pe People.

The Morton ::C: dets Also in Good Shape—Béth ‘Companies Leave This'Evening. The final drii of the National Fencibles before their departure for the Memphis interstate drill, and also the first appear- ance of the tcam in public since the work of preparation for the contest began, was given last evening in Convention Hall be- fore hundreds of persons, many in the as- semblage being ladies and guardsmen. The exhibition of Capt. Domer and his men was a revelation in the drill line and the various perfectly executed maneuvers were greeted with applause. It was the general opinion of the spectators that the Fen- cibles have reached the top notch and cannot be surpassed. Capt. Domer stated to a Star reporter that ne has the utmost confidence in the men who are to represent the Fencibles at Memphis, and he considers it the best team in every respect he has ever taken awa The commanding officer of the champions does not stand in any fear whatsoever of the other companies that will compete for the Galveston cup. The Morton Cadets also devoted several hours to hard drilling last evening, and it is a certainty, from the results already ac- complished, that Capt. Shilling and his youthful warriors will return to Washing- ton with an enviable reputation and con- siderable cash. Quartermaster Sergeant Bailey and Lieut. Melluch, chief of the commissary department, accompanied by two privates, left last evening for Memphis in order to prepare for the arrival of the company in camp. The Mortons will have with them on the trip Lieut. Clarenee A. Weaver, surgeon of the third battalion, D. C. N. G., who ts to see that the health of the boys is properly looked after. Both companies will assemble at the ar- mory this evening at 9:30 o'clock, then march to the 6th street depot and depart at 10:43 o'clock over the Southern rail- way, traveling by way of Atlanta and Bir- mingham, and are due at Memphis Sat- urday morning at 7:40 o'clock. The Fen- cibles will travel In the company black fatigue uniform and new company caps, while the Mortons are to wear National Guard fatigue attire and new company caps. Fach man js to carry a knapsack and woolen and rubber blankets, and each rifle will be in a canvas case. The cars will have attached huge streamers, bearing the names of the companies. ‘A large crowd is expected to see the boys off and wish them success in the great contests in the Tennessee city. The drill committee has decided that the maiden class will be drilled first, followed by class B, open to companies that have never taken first or second prize in an in- terstate competition, while class A, the drill for the Galveston cup will conclude the competitions. The zouave and artillery drills will be interspersed throughout the entire ten days’ program. Saturday will be the opening day of the encampment and the morning is to be devoted to the organization of the camp. In the afternoon at 3 o'clock the troops will assemble for a grand review andiintroduetion of sponsors, Dress parade will follow and the cere- monies of the day will be concluded with a band concert, The Fencibles,will drill only in the con- test for the championship of the United States, but the Mortons are to try for the maiden prize, the prize for companies that have never wom. first or second prize in an interstate drill, aid will also see what they can do in the drill for the cup.

The Washington Light Infantry and Army and Navy clubs will play this after- noon at National Park, game to be called at 4:30. Not a little interest is taken in Departmental League circles in this,the first appearance of the team representing the Light Infantry Corps, they being looked upon as possible pennant winners. The play- ers and positions are as follows: Klein- schmidt, left fielder; Wisner, third base; Gilroy, catcher; Winkleman, second base; Heydler, shortstop; Gleason, _ pitcher; Shreve, center fielder; Stewart, first base, and Lee, right fielder. THE MONEY MAKERS WIN. They Defeat the Mail Handlers by a Big Score. * The game yesterday between the teams from the city post office and the bureau of engraving was a “cinch” for the latter or- ganization. Twenty-seven base hits off of Rebstock and Hamacher earned nineteen runs for the B. E. P.’s, seven singles and a double in the second inning practically win- ning the game. The way the game started off it looked as though it would be rather close, but the manner in which Rebstock was hammered in the next inning proved the fallacy of this theory. The bureau lads picked up as neatly as couldwe and threw wonderfully in practice, but when it came to getting the ball to first base in time to get the runner it went anywhere but into the first baseman’s hands. Leach’s all- around good work was the feature on the side of the B. E. P., while Rebstock of the other side, after he had settled down at short, made some excellent stops and throws. Orspada pitched good ball, and if he had had the support which he should have had the eleven runs that are credited to the C. P. O. would have been cut down considerably, Chamberlain worked hard on first base, and Ogle made a good catch of a foul behind the bat, but he made a bull every time he tried to throw the ball to the bases. The errors made were much more numerous than the score shows, and both sides were in it up to their necks. McCauley, short stop for the B. E. P.’s, is ordinarily one of the best players on the team, but yesterday he couldn’t handle a thing and is credited with six errors. He made a great stop in the sixth inning,how- ever, and came near shutting off a run at the plate, but in his excitement he threw the ball too high. Mr. Carroll umpired the fame and gave general satisfaction, only one or two of his decisions being quéstion- ed. The attendance was larger than it has been on any previous day and more ladies were In the grand stand than on any day except the opening one, Saturday last. The score was as follows: CITY P. 0. B.

ST. ASAPH’S TO KEEP ON, Will Continue Races Under the West- ern Turf Congress. As has been fully anticipated for some time, the. officials of the St. Asaph track announced yesterday afternoon that upon the expiration of the license granted by the National Jockey Club racing will be continued under the authority and rules of the Western Turf Congress. The jockey club license expires on the 14th instant, and under the rules of the turf congress all owners, jockeys and horses in good standing on January 1, 1895, will be eligible to race cn the St. Asaph track, provided they have not participated in racing on outlaw tracks since that date. The St. Asaph meeting will, it is stated, be con- tinued as long as it proves profitable, and an arrangement will undoubtedly be made with the ma of the Alexander Is- land track for a ion of dates, the two clubs racing, as now, on alternate days. The St. Asaph authorities took another step yesterday, which, in the opinion of bout everyone, should have been taken This was the ruling off of 5 , the owner of Summertime,and the filly’s jockey, Nacey, as the result of the pulling of the horse last Friday. The announcement was made Monday afternoon that the club officials had investigated the matter, arriving at the conclusion that Summertime was not pulled, but lost the race as the result of being hit several times while Penn on Lambent is endeav- oring to punish his mount. The action taken yesterday was that of the stewards of the meeting, and clearly indicates that they took no stock in either the story of Nacey or Penn. Whether their action was, as is asserted by some, taken to forestall the contemplated investigation today by the National Jockey Ciub, it is to be re- gretted that the St. Asaph management did not act more promptly. The fact cannot be concealed that the running of Streett’s horses has long been a matter of great complaint to the patrons of the track, and the action of the stewards will unques- tionably give the greatest satisfaction. stated in The Star, Starter Fitzgerald and Presiding Judge Powers yesterday re- signed, their places being taken by “Dare Devil” Fitzpatrick, the well-known ex- jockey, and by T. Wood Martin. The work of Fitzpatrick was as near perfect as that ever seen in this locality, and he will un- doubtedly do. The racing yesterday was fairly interesting, four favorites, a second choice and an outsider landing the money. The attendance was good, as was the track, and fifteen booktes weighed in. The winners were: Factotum, 6 to 1; Bessie Browning, 3 to 1; White Cockade, 10 to 1; Hermia, 3 to Bandit, even money, and Wheeler, 3 to 5. CAPITAL CITY GUN CLUB. + Clubs, W. L. P.C| Clubs.

For the coming season the management of the Capital City Gun Club have offered three handsome prizes for the three highest scores in the record shooting. The prizes will be $25, $15 and $10 or medals to cost like amounts, respectively. Club members have been handicapped on the scale of 500 birds for the scraich man and 600 for the poorer shots, the list being filled with shooters handicapped ac- cording to their past record. The working pian of this scheme is that the men shoct- ing at 600 have all kills counted to them, thus giving them a large chance to beat the scratch man, even if he makes 100 per cent. In the handicapping our old vet ran, Billy Wagner, leads the list as scratch man, to shoot at 500, the others coming in the following order: Hunter, 510; Arnold, G TO CARLSBAD isn't necessary now- Carlsbad is coming to you.

The Corbett - Fitzsimmons Contest Likely to Go to Dallas. DALLAS, Texas, May 9.—It looks now as if Dallas would surely get the Corbeit- Fitzsimmons prize fight, and that it will come off during the Texas state fair and Dallas exposition next October. Since the outlawing by legislation and court decision two days ago of prize fight- ing in Florida and Louisiana, William A. Brady and Joe Vendig have been in wire communication with Dan. A. Stuart, the wealthiest sporting man in Texas, to ar- pane to have the fight take place in Dal- as. The details are partially completed and a delinite decision ‘will be reached before the week is ended. About $40,000 will be re- quired. Baldwin in It.

Croker and Dwyer Scratch Their Best Colts, NEWMARKET, May ‘To the surprise of sportsmen in general, it was announced this afternoon that Mr. Michael F. Dwy- er’s Harry Reed and Mr. Richard Croker’s Stonenell had been scratched for the Jubi- lee stakes and that Mr. Richard Croker had also scratched all his two-year-olds, except Montauk, from all engagements. Harry Reed had been clocked over the Rowley mile course early in the day, and had done well, which makes the action of his owner this afternoon all the more puz- zling to English sportsmen. : Among the entries for the Jubilee stakes, which is to be run next Saturday at Kemp- ton Park, are Ravenbury, carrying $ stone 13 pounds; Throstle, 8 stone 10 pounds; Eldiablo, ¢ stone 12 pounds, and_Priest- holme, 7 stone 7 pounds.

As I stated once before, thé young woman in chargo of McKnew's Corset Den, partment is quite an enthusiast on the subjext of “Dress Reform,” especially it appertains ti) Corsets. Said she: “I only choose such Corsets ang! ‘Waists as are constructed upon modern, sclentiié| and hygienic principles. P have Corsets here ese pecially adapted to the thin, stout, short anq long. Corsets built for grace alone and otherg built for strength.” This young lady chowed me the latest style Ventilated Corset for women “bicyclists"” and those who ride horseback, go row? ing, play tennis and indulge in other out-doos athletic sports. It is cut high in the bust and shortened from the waist line down, thus giving Perfect freedom to the movements of the hips and Umbs. So many women prefer Walsts to Corsets in summer that Mr. McKnew Las added a com+ plete line of the Famous “Ejuipoise” Waists, in white and black, which are light and yielding, and at the same time give ample support. Do not get the impression that Mr. McKnew's prices for Core sets are high on account of thelr being the best, for I found just the contrary tobe true, and was surprised to see regular $1.50 Imported Corsets being sold at $1, and “Ventilated Summer Gore sets being sold 28 low os GOc. per pair. There ia one thing you can always depend upon at Nex Knew's, and that is the “best” style and the quale itfes at the lowest prices consistent therewith. 1t A FASHION WRITER, BRIAR PIPE AWAY: MIXTURE ; for > los cents Every pipe stamped DUKES MIXTURE or <>. 2oz.
