8 SUBURBAN NEWS BROOKLAND. The prayer meeting of the Brookland M. E. Church will take place tonight at Mrs. J. J. Fisher's, where will be held the quarterly love feast. The Epworth League of the Brookland M. E. Church held a business meeting last night, at Mrs. Wolf’s, where many matters of interest to the league were discussed.

M. C. Munson, H. P. Douglass, H. A. Whallon and A. G. Hayes; deacons— Messrs. A. W. Cathcart, T. J. De Lash- mutt, Dr. H. C. Corbett, Mrs. S. L. John- Son and Miss Mam‘e Young. The cere- monies, which included the ordination of those named to their respective offices, were very impressive, and were conducted by Rev. Dr. D. L.. Rathbun, the pastor. Sixty-seven persons gave thelr names as members. For the present Dr. Rathbun will remain the pastor of the church, offi- ciating, as heretofore, both at Falls Church and Baliston. As Ballston is a growing town, it is thought that in the near future the community will be able to maintain its own pastor. . The Fairfax Conversational Club, many of whose members reside in the vicinty, have decided to spend Saturday next at Fairfax Court House. There the club will visit the historical points of interest in that famous old town, and examine Washing- ton's will and other relics of bygone days. At the last meeting Rev. J. T. Barber read @ paper on ‘‘The Reclamation of History,” in which he compared the modern methods of writing history with those in vogue in earlier times, while many others of those Fresent made brief remarks on the same theme. The colored teachers of Fairfax county are said to be among the most progressive in the United States. They have a well organized teachers’ association, which meets on an average of once a month dur- ing the school term, when the various branches of study taught in the schools and the best method of teaching them are discussed. The discussions and the ex- change of experiences and ideas greatly Denetit the members, who are thereby en- abled to do better work in the school room, and their annual meeting, held recently in Alexandria, was not only largely attended, but was one of the most notable.and suc- cessful of the many very valuable meetings they have held.

William George Henley, who was arrest- ed and lodged in jail here last week charg- ed with attempting to kill his wife, yester- day had a hearing before Justice Morgan. The evidence adduced at the examination was to the effect that Henley Thursday cf last week made his appearance at the home of his wife’s aunt, where she was living with her children, and under pre- tense of wishing to see one of his children forced his way into the house. Upon en- tering he caught hold of his wife, and the aunt rushed between them. While in this position he drew a revolver, and placirg his right arm over the shoulder of the aunt fired two shots at his wife, both pass- ing through a portion of her clothing and being prevented from entering her body by striking the steels in her corset and being deflected. After firing the two shots Hen- ley was pushed out of the door and off the orch by the women, and in & short time left the premises. When the shots were fired he was so close to his wife that her glothing was set on fire by the burning powder. It was also in evidence that the accused had on several occasions made threats against his wife and other persors. Upon the conclusion of the evidence the justice held Henley for his appearance at court in the sum of $1,00), and beirg un- able to give this amount of security he was remanded to jail. A suit for divorce is now pending between the parties, and the hus- band was recently released from jail after serving a sentence of twelve months for wife beating. Mrs. Henley is described by her neighbors as a good and industrious woman. In the orphans’ court yesterday the last will and testament of William Henry Thomas was admitted to probate and rec- ord.

Edward Sellman, a_promiment farmer of Barnesville district, died on the 13th Instant at the home of his father-in- Jaw, where he wis visiting, in the thirtieth year of his age. His funeral took place on Monday, with service by Rev. S. R. White of the Baptist Church, and interment at Beallsville cemetery. Mr. S. P. Howland, master of Chevy Chase hounds, offers a special premium of $25 for the gelding or filly. four years old and under, which gives most promise of de- Yeioping into a saddle horse or hunter, to be owned by a resident of Montgomery county, within a radius of fifteen miles from Chevy Chase Circle, members of Chevy Chase Hunt Club excluded. The ————— premium will be awarded on Wednesday morning of the agricultural fair, in Septem- ber, as follows: For the best animal, $12; for second, $8; for third, $5. A hog belonging to Mr. Bazil Burrows of Layhill, this county, died a few days ago, after showing unmistakable symptoms of hydrophobia. The hog was bitten some weeks ago by a strange dog that passed through the neighborhood. - Mr. M. L. Littlefield of Layhill recently sold to George T. Casheil the farm, con- taining 228 acres, formerly owned by the late Stephea L. F. Holland. The price paid for the same has not been made public. He has also sold a house and lot, the property of Albert Stabler, to Lloyd Moxley of Washington for $300. 3 ——— BRIGHTWOOD. Early yesterday morning Willie Mahoney, the four-year-old child of Mr. Michael Ma- honey, a dairyman of this place,was fright- fully hurt by a maddened cow. It seems that it was milking time, and Willie was in the field adjoining the place, trying to drive the cows to the barn. One, which had a young calf, refused to move until Willie got a stick and was about to strike the animal. But before the little fellow could raise the sick the cow rushed at him and gored one of its sharp horns into the left side of his neck. If the rest of the family had not ran to Willie’s rescue im- mediately the child would probably have been killed. The little sufferer was hastily taken to the office of Dr. C. G. Stone, who, after dressing the wound, had Willie sent to the Children’s &fospital. The cow’s horn passed between the carotid artery, the jugular vein and the windp!pe, coming out at the root of the tongue. The doctor thinks there will be no danger, and that the wound will soon“feal. He also states that it was most extraordinary that neither the artery, the vein nor the windpipe was in any way injured, and if either cf these had been injured it would have been fatal. The members of the Colored Baptist Church beg that the statement heretofore made in The Star, and rumored about the village, thet the church was unable to pay its debts and would be for sale, be correct- ed. They claim that the church does not even owe the amount of an ordinary gro- cery bill, $50. The Ruth Chapter-of the Eastern Star Lodge held its regular meeting on Monday night at Masonic Hall. After the usual ex- ercises and the transaction of the routine business, light refreshments were served. Although the weather was quite inclement, the attendance was large. Water plugs are being stationed through the park on the several streets. Bright- wood has at last gotten a first-class water system. _ Mrs. Dickson of Philadelphia is now stay- ing with her sister, Mrs. McElwee of Flint street. —_——__ HERNDON. The meeting of the Sublocal Union of the Endeavorers at Stirling, Sunday afternoon was probably the largest since its organi- zation. The house was-full, while large numbers were unable to gatn admittance. The top‘c, “Good Citizenship,” was consid- ered at length in remarks by Prof. Works, Mr. Andrew Wilson of ‘Washington and Rev. Mr. Weller of the M. E. Church South. At the Congregational Churct here in -he evening Dr. Mason gave an interesting lee- ture on the same topic. H. W. Blanchard, with a part of his fam- ily and Misses Belle and May Simonds, started this morning for Spout ryn, near Castleman's Ferry, on the Shenandoah riv- er, where they propose to camp for about two weeks.

Detwiler will leave tomorrow for North Bingham, Pa., to join his wife, who is spending the summer there with the family of her father. er TAKOMA PARK. ‘Takoma Hotel was ablaze with light and beauty last night, the latter representing many prominent in Washington society and elsewhere, the occasion being the third of the serles of dances tendered by Mr. Walter Burton tu his guests and their friends. The spacious piazzas and grounds, illuminated with Chinese lanterns, proved a@ most delightful resort during the inter- val between dances (twelve in number) furnished by a Washington orchestra. Mr. and Mrs. Burton were assisted by the Misses Johnson, Miss Alice BH. Johnson and the ladies of the hotel, in receiving their guests, to whom invitations had been is- sued a week previously, this latter course having be2n found necessary, to avoid dis- comfort in the ball room. The cars in waiting, by prior arrangement, on the elec- tric road, were crowded to their utmost capacity at midnight, the desire to prolong this delightful evening to the last moment proving irresistible. Miss Helen Krafft, a recent guest of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Keefer, has returned to her home. Mrs. Wm. Alvey left yesterday with a party cf Baltimore friends for Atlantic City. Miss Startzman of Baltimore will spend the fortnight of her sister's absence in Takoma.

How mary pcople have ever seriously conridered the fact that almost any grave change in health is at cnce betrayed by a loss of flesh? The face altezs at once because of its irregular outlice, and, as it is always visible, shows con- splcuously and most plainly. the loss of tissue. When we can hold our own with that body weight Which §s naiucal to us in health we are usually in a condition of nutritive prosperity. The loss of flesh means impoverished blood, v-hile an increase to a certain point generally means a rise in the health standard and improvement in the color and amcunt of ths blood. It is likewise true that very thin people have little reserve for emergencies. In this class, therefore, if the germs of disease find entrance, the liver dces not protect them, and such thin or thin-blooded people are certain vic- tims of disease. Some persons lose weight in win- ter, more fail in flesh in the spring, which seems to be the principal season for ill health, and all are subject to slight changes in weight at different se scns, and it is well to take the warning in time by improving the quality of the blood, as well as increasing the amount. Dr. R. V. Pierco, chief coreulting physician to the Invalids’ Hotel and Surgical Iustitute of Buf- falo, N.Y., early recognized the fuct that to gain in flesh is nearly always to: gain in blood. He scrght to find a vegetable compound which would purify, vitalize und enrich the blood. After much careful research he experimented with an alterative and tonic which he called Dr. Pterce’s Golden Medical Discovery. He scon found that it had a remarkable effect on the human system, building up the tigsu2s by means of its enriching qualities given to@he blood. Those who were emaciated, thi and weak coon reacted their normal weight snd strength, ani also escaped the contagious or. prevalent discases. After debilitating and ex- hate ting diseases such as malaria and typhoid fevers, grip and pneumonia, or “lung fever,” this bicod purifler and invigorating tonic seemed to be Jnst the thing needed, and helped his patients to a rapid recovery. For thirty years past this medi- cine, invented nd prescribed by Dr. Pierce, has been eold in every section of the country and many foreign lands. Dr. Pierce has thousands of testi- monials telling of its remarkable effects in curing all blood and liver diseases. By purifying the blood and building up the tissues, also by its specific action on tte mucous membranes and air Paereges, it has been found, to, that ‘Golden Medical Discovery” has made a record in the cure of bronchial, throat and lung diseases that fairly cititled it to cutrank all other advertised remedies for these affections. Especially has it manifested its potency in curing consumption of the lungs. Not every ease, but we believe fully 98 per cent of all cases of consumption, in all its earlier stdges, are cured by Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, even after the discase has progressed so fer as to induce repeated bleedings from the lungs, severe lingering cough, with copious ex- pectoration (including tubercular matter), great loss of flesh and extreme emaciation and weakness. Do you doubt that hundreds of such cases re- ported as cused by “Golden Medical Discovery” were genuine cases of that dread and fatal dis- ease? You need not take cur word for it. They have, in nearly every instance, heen so pronounced by the best and most experienced bome physicians, who have no interest wkatever in misrepresenting them, and whe were often strongly prejudiced ani advised against a trial of “Golden Medical Dis- covery,” but who hav» been forced to confess that it surpasses, in curative power over this fatal maledy, all other medicines with which they ure accrairted. Nasty cod liver ofl, in different forms. had been tried ‘n nearly all these cases, and had either utterly failed to benefit or had only seemed to benefit a little tor a short time. Extract of malt, whisky and various preparations of the hypo- phorphites had also been faithfully tried in vain. Many thousand letters of gratitude from former tients in all parts of America have convinced Br. Pierce that he -has been successful beyond even his own expectations. For more than a quar- ter of a century Dr. R. V. Pierce has been the head of the most complete and successful Health Institute in America, the Invalids’ Hotel and Sur- gical Institute, and’ whose “Golden Medical Dis- covery,"” “Favorite Prescription,” for woman's flls—and “Pleasant Pellets,"’ or littie lver pills, Lave converted thousands of men and women, in every state of this Union and in many foreign nds, from absoiute misery to physical vigor and appiness, and whose People’s Common Sense Med- {eal Adviser has kad the greatest sale of any med- feal work ever published—amounting to over 680,- (000 coptes. Some designing dealers do not tomers to have Dr. Pierce's family medicines, be- ¢ause inferior ones afford greater profits to them. such dealers are short-sighted. They overlook the ct that next time you will go where you are sup licd with what you ask for. PP icontracted a severe cold.” writes Geo.

Smothers, esq., of Millston. Jackson county, Wis. “I was ‘cured twice with it when I could get no other reltef.”” "T {ook a few bottles of Dr. Plerce’s Golden Medical Discovery and ‘Favorite Prescription,’ ”” writes Mrs. W. J.

There was a very interesting meeting of the Benning Citizens’ Association last even- ing at the new town hall. It was called to order by Vice President Mewshaw, and after. minutes of last meeting were read and approved, Mr. Keyser of the lights and sidewalks ccmmittee reported that lumber had been sent out for the repair of side- walks, and that Mr. Walson had told him that work on the same would be commenc- ed at once. The report was accepted with a degree of vigor that would have done credit to the association had the entire membership been present. The road committee reported having seen Commissioner Ross, who dictated a letter to the health officer asking his opinion first, as to whether jt would be advisable to issue an order prohibiting the removal of bodies from Graceland to Woodlawn cemetery until! c0ld weather; second, whether it would be practicable to remove the same after dark, and third, asking for an early reply in view of the fact that the Process as now cartied on is thought to be detrimental to health and the general wel- fare of tae community of Benning. In ref- erence to the driving of stock over the Benning road during the daytime the com- mittee had the assurance of Mr. Ross that before any action Was taken looking to a repeal of the order the asscciation would be duly advised. As to the nuisance that was reported to exist by reason of making @ public dump at thé foot of Miller's hill, the road committee said it had the assur- ance of the ninth precinct officers that the same would be loéked after immediately. On motion the report was accepted. After considerab{e discussion as to put- ting in suitable furniture, Mr. Keyser said he would attend to. that, and the matter was, on motion of Mr. Broome, tabled in- definitely. : One of the standing committees of the as- sociation, the Owens heirs committee, was, on motion of Mr. Broome, discharged. The secretary then read a communication from Mr. Leon Milstead asking the loan of the association’s lamps for the benefit of the picnic to be given by the Piney Grove Sun- day school, and on motion the request was granted. After considerable discussion a special vote of thanks was then tendered Vice President Mewshaw for his efforts In mak- ing the late entertainment a success. The secretary reported having sent a let- ter to Messrs. Bastable and Clark, express- ing the thanks of the association for cour- tesies extended, and after Mr. Mewshaw had «asked for an extension of time in which Dr. Leech is to make a report, the association adjourned. ——=___ Popular Music at the Marine Band Concerts. To the Editor of The Evening Star: I have attended the fourth concert, given so far this season, at the White House grounds by the Marine Band, and while the music may be very classical and the quality high, I do not believe it suits the Popular tastes, if applause can be taken as the criterion. For I have observed al- ways the applause was very pronounced after the rendition of a popular Strauss waltz or a march by any of the popular composers. There is a wide field for se- lection by a leader between the strictly classical and the music of a trashy kind, which strikes the popular chord. I believe Mr. Fanctulli would add to his popularity by making up his programs of marches, waltzes, selections from grand opera and new compositions just issued, leaving out the strictly clfssical for more critical au- diences. FRANK C. LARIMORE. ——_ To Restrain a Sale. Mary E. Brown and others have filed a bill ir equity against Wm. L. Pollard and others, to restrain Bettie Pollard from sell- ing, conveying, encumbering or interfering with lots 53 and 64, square 276, which the complainants claim as their own, as heirs of the iate James R. Holmes. When the latter died, it is claimed, there was a trust on the property for $684.40. November 21, 1803, the trustees sold the property to Wm. L. Pollard for $1,750. He subsequently placed a trust of $2,100 on it, and later con- veyed it to his mother, Bettie Pollard. The complainants allege that Pollard was to bid in th2 property for them, and they claim to have paid him $184, which, with the rents from the property, they assert, was sufficient to pay the interest upon it. They therefore pray for a full accounting by him and the other defendants. —_>—__ Death of Mrs. Hudson. Mys. Hudson, wife of Samuel E.
