Julius Rhogfs, an ex-pension agent, living in Twining?@ity, was placed under arrest last night “at the Anacostia substa- tion to answer augharge of petty larceny preferred by Jo; As Reppetti of 317 Pennsylvania avenue southeast. After the issuavcé of the warrant it was placed in the hang of Detective Carter of police neadquarte®s' for service, and the officers at the Apgcostia substation were requested to makeithe arrest. As in’ the case of Anderson: referred to in yesterday’s Star, Capt. Rhodes“heard of the existence of the warrant, dnd-like Anderson, he re- paired to the substation to try to arrange for a hearing without being subjected to a detention over night. Night Statlon Keeper Middleton was again on duty, ‘and Rhodes used almost precisely the same argument in endeavoring tO, get released on parole as did Anderson, but this time fair words were unavailing, and Mr. Middleton told Rhodes that he was compelled to place him under arrest. Rhodes then asked Officer Farquhar, who was present, to get in the former's buggy with him and accompany him to police headquarters, but the police- man replied that much as he would like to be obliging that was more than was in his power. Mr. Middleton then reported the arrest to police headquarters, and orders were re- ceived to hold the prisoner. Rhodes then offered to deposit $5 collateral, but Mr. Middleton declined to receive it, and later in the night the accused was taken to the fifth precinct station in the patrol wagon, and locked up. It is alleged that Rhodes, several weeks ago, purchased from Mr. Reppett! a lot of shares, for the payment of which he gave a check, which he said would be made good June'5, as he would get the pension due him on the day pre- vious and deposit the necessary funds in bank. Rhodes did not, however, make the check good, it is sald, and after several attempts, ail of which failed, by Mr. Rep- pettl to have him do so, the latter decided to prosecute Rhodes. At. the conclusion of the usual services last night at Garden Memorial Church the members of the Yeung People’s Society of Christian Endeavor held a meeting and balloted for officers of the District Union for the year ensuing. Two sets of names, which Were presented by the istrict Union nominating committee, were voted for, but which of them received the ma- jority will not be known pubiicly until the general meeting of the District Union, which will take place at the New York Avenue Presbyterian Church Friday night next. ———->—__ HYATTSVILLE. A corps of engineers, under Chief En- gineer John D. Riley, are stopping at the old Hyatt mansion, in this village, and will shortly commence to survey the Mary- Mand route, of the proposed electric railway between Washington and Laurel. They will go over the route already laid out and make such alterations as may be deemed expedient. At present they are engaged in surveying the line at Rhode Island avenue extended. The Guild of the Episcopal Church met last evening at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. L. H. Campbell, on Littlefield avenue, and transacted routine business. It was largely attended.

She Declares That No Separate Schools Will Be Established. In the Manitba'' legislature yesterday afternoon Attorney; General Sifton gate notice of a motion setting forth Manitoba’s reply to the dominion government's de- mands that separate schools should again be established in “Manitoba. It is a direct refusgl of the demand. The reply is in the form of a memorial ad- dressed to the governor general of Canada, and sets forth that the establishment of a set of Roman Catholic schools, followed by a set of Anglican’ schools, and possibly Mennonite and Icelandic schools, would so emasculate the present system that any approach to even: the present general effl- ciency would be: quite impossible. ‘The reply also!expressed a willingness to reimburse Catholics if any Injustice has been done in the matter of private church funds invested. oe- The Gas Engine. Another chapter was added to the gas engine controversy yesterday, and the Commissioners heard a number of wit- nesses testify that the gas engine used by Nelson Morris Company on B street was a nuisance.

Jack McCanr of Chester, Pa., defeated Howard Wilson of this city in twenty- seven rounds before the Eureka Club last night. It was one of the gamest fights ever seen hereabouts, and the lucky ones who made the journey were well repaid. Wil- son lost on a fluke. He had hammered Mc- Cann about the face until both eyes were nearly closed and he bore a resemblance to a Chinese doll, and had punched him over the heart until big red swellings cov- ered that region of the body. A gamer fighter than McCann never donned the mittens. He took his punishment with a smile and did the best he could. In point of science he was no match for the doughty colored boy, who made a chopping block of him. Time and time again Wilson land- ed vicious right-hand swings on the vul- nerahle jaw, but McCann was hardly “phased.” The crisis came in the latter half of the twenty-seventh round. Wilson, under the Instructions of Pat Raedy, was forcing the fighting at short range. He had just succeeded in landing in the short ribs and gathered himself for a right and left swing on the jaw. McCann saw him coming like a whirlwind and essayed a half-right-hand swing and upper cut. It was not a strong blow, but it landed on the dangerous point and Wilson collapsed,- knocked out. For a mement McCann looked dazed. He had no idea what had ‘happened. The blow, while well timed and delivered, was a chance blow, but it did the business, and Wilson lay prone upon the floor, while the referee, Jno. Duffy, counted him out.

Committee Appointed to Call a Na- tional Convention. Immediately after the Memphis conven- tion was called to order for the afternoon session yesterday, Senator J. K. Jones of Arkansas, as chairman, presented the re- port of the committee on resolutions. The resolutions contained nothing more than a strong presentation of the free sil- ver sentiment of the gathering. The reso- lutions were uranimously adopted. Senator Jones of Arkansas, ex-Gov. Prince and Senator Ben. R. Tillman of South Carolina spoke. The latter furnished the sensation expect- ed. He said: “Oh, they charge me with being a new fire brand, preaching section- alism, because I mention the south and west as against the east and middle and New England states. If there is sectional- ism in that it fs the sectionalism of pov- erty and wrong on one side against rob- bery and rascatity on the other, and the day is going to come very soon, for come it must,.when vou can’t stand. this much longer, when there will be a day of reck- oning with these men. We will have con- stitutional amendments enough to give us an income tax and it will be a graduated income tax, such as will not only tax the income above a certain amount, a reason- able per cent on it, but, as it goes up, the tax itself will go up and whenever a man gets above a certain amount we will take all of it. (Applause.) “There is going to be a new Mason and Dixon’s line drawn next year. It will start at the mouth of the Chesapeake bay and run to Chicago, by way of Cincinnati. Every republican and so-called democrat northeast of that line is going to vote for a gold-bug, and every republican and popu- list and democrat south of it is going to vote for somebody who is an honest friend of the people, let,him be from whatever party he may.” (Applause.) Gov. Alva Adams of Colorado favored a union of west and south for silver, the waging of a vigorous campaign outside of all party lines. He asserted that eleven western states stood ready to join the south in such a movement. Under the resolution vassed in the after- noon the following national commiitee was appointed to call a national silver conven- tion in its di: Tomlinso: fornia, Rucker; sretion: ; Arkansas Alex.

In a petition for a divorce filed yesterday by Elizabeth Wells against Arthur E. Wells the petitioner states that they were mar- ried in Rockville, Md., March 23, 1890, and two of their three children still live, they being in her custody. May 17, 1898, Mrs. Wells charges, her husband deserted and abandoned her and their children on ac- count, she declares, of his love for another woman, and for the same reason, she says, he has treated her with the greatest neglect and cruelty. Her husband, says Mrs. Wells, is half owner of a laundry here, his income from which is about $150 a month. Yet, she states, he promised to give her but $10 weekly for the support of her and the children last July, but he reduced that amount to $6 a week, paying it until about two weeks ago, when he positively refused to further contribute for their support, saying that he wished the matter settled in court. Believing that the greater portion of her husband’s earnings are spent upon the woman she charges him with now keeping company, Mrs. Wells prays for a divorce, the care and custody of the chil- dren, counsel fees and temporary and per- maritnt allmony.

William Madella, colored, charg- ed with assaulting George Seaton, had his case continued. Mayor Strauss gave James Chandler, the man caught robbing the ticket office at the Wasnington Southern railway depot, a preliminary hearing yester- day afternoon.’ Chandler plead guilty and was sent on to the grand Jury. Robbed of Tickets. The officials of the Washington, Alexan- dria and Mount Vernon Electric Railway Company have just discovered gat they have been systematically robbed of tickets to the amount of about $200 for some time past, and, while they have a suspicion, they are unable to locate the thief or thieves. It was discovered by tickets being presented in other numbers than those which had been issued through the regular channels, and an order has been issued to take up all such tickets when presented and collect fare.

THE THEORY OF THE DIGESTION OF FOOD, ‘The human stomach is a pear-shaped bag, into Which all food drops at once when swallowed. ‘Three things bappen—the blood rushes into the SUBSTANCE of the stomach (not into its interior) to heat it; thousands of little ducts or pipes pour copiously forth a fluid called the gastric juice; and, then, the stomach begins a wave-like, churning movement, which thoroughly mixes the gastric Juice with the food, and by-and-by changes the whole into a gray-looking, eemI-liquid paste called chyme. This is digestion as it takes place in health. But, look you! If the stomach fails to furnish the gastric juice, or fails to furnish enongh of it, the food simply es in the stomach and turns sour, putrefies, ferments—as it would in a warm, moist air out-doors. This is indigestion, dyspepsia or gastritis. Having no other way of escape, the poisons so engendered pass into the circulation and set up a train of results like these: Headache; foul taste in the mouth; loss of appetite and Bausea; furred tongue; disordered heart action; nervous weakness and prostration; cbills, followed by heat flashes; distress and weight in the chest after eating; fugitive muscular pains, followed in time by grave local aflments, etc. All this, bear in mind, comes of a more or less complete failure cf the stomach to secrete gastric juice. Having studied this subject for wany years, the Shakers of Mt. Lebanon (N.¥.)—famous as medict- ral chemists and herbalists—sought among the plants cultivated by them only for a remedy which should have the distinct and especial effect of stimulating the fow of gastric juice to a normal amount, and, at the same time, of the full, nat- ural, digestive strength. No other so-called reme- dies for Gyspepsia have this purpose in view, yet it is the ABSOLUTELY essential thing. Success- ful in their efforts, even beyond their bopes, they have placed thelr discovery on the market, under the name of the Shaker Digestive Cordial. ‘is ef- fects are immediate and radical. Relief is felt at once, and a permanent cure soon follows. It is the sure and scientific remedy for indigestion and dyspepsia. Contident in thelr work, the Shakers offer trial hotles at the nominal price of 10 cents. For sale by nearly all druggists. Boys’ Suits, Half Price. Two Suits for the price ofone!
