Conrad of No. 1744 12th street, Washington, D. C., says: “T can speak in the highest praise of Ripans Tabules. I have been for years troubled with nightmare (an erroneous expression, but one that thousands are familiar with), and have suffered a thousand deaths, being caused directly by a torpid liver, thence stagnation of the blood. A short while after retiring I would experience the most terrible sensation that human can fall heir to, such as having heavy weights upon you, seeing horrible animals, burglars, &c., and being unable to get out of their reach. I have tried everything on the © market that I could think ~ would be of any benefit, but never struck the right remedy until I tried Ripans Tabules, and since that time nightmare with me is a thing of the past. Lam fully convinced that Ripans Tabules are a good thing for suffering humanity, and I feel that I could not exist without them. And I will further say for the benefit of others (knowing there are thousands suffering in the same manner), profit by my experience and try them; you will never regret it.” Ripans aboles are sold by druggists, or by mail Mf the price (50 cents a box) is sent to the Ripans Chemical Compan: 10 Spruce st., New York.

OTHER LOCAL NOTES A conference between the Engineer Com- missioner and Mr. Frederick Law Olm- stead, the landscape engineer who was given that portion of section 3 of the street extension plans west of Rock creek, was held at the District building today. Mr. Olmstead has been in consultation with Major Powell since the latter ordered the commencement of work on the third sec- tion, and his visit is for the purpose of conferring upon several important features of his portion of the work. Major Powell said this morning that the plans were in no way completed, and thought it would be several weeks before even Mr. Olmstead’s part of the third sec- tion would be submitted for the approval of the Commissioners. Today Mr. Olmstead presented tentative maps of the location, which differ mate- rially from those he first submitted, in that there are a great many more streets projected on straight Hnes. It will be recalled that the consideration of that section west of Rock creek pro- voked a wide discussion, and there was con- siderable difference of opinion as to the best method of laying out the streets in that locality. The topography of the coun- wy was not well adapted to straight streets, and the contention on the part of the prop- erty owners, and those directly interested in the matter, was over the selection of the streets which should be curved, and which projected straight. A public hearing was given by the Commissioners to those per- sons directiy inverested, and Mr. Olmstead exh.bited several studies of the section. A large number of the streets he showed in curved lines, and a number of those present chjected strenuously to such curvatures. The presence of Mr. Olmstead was due to an invitation from the Commissioners, in order that he might better understand the condition of affairs, and treat his study of the section assigned to him in such a way that while ali of the interests of the Dis- trict might be retained, the opposition of the property owners would be reduced to a minimum, This morning he presented his tentative maps to Maj. Powell and the latter care- fully went over them, offering suggestions where they appeared necessary. ‘The maps include all that part of the District be- tween the Naval Observatory Circle and Rock Creek Park. Generaliy speaking, the strests are laid out in straight lixes corresponding as near as possible with the city sireets, or the established streets of old subdivisions. There are portions of the section, however, Where it has been found utterly imprac- ticable to lay out straight streets. The topography of the country will not permit of it, and Mr. Olmstead has handled this part in a judicious manner, and provided curved streets of gentle grade and archi- tectural beauty. Th‘s hilly section is in- clvded between Connecticut avenue and Rock creek. It is bourded by the Klingle Ford road on the north and Chevy Chase Cirele on the south. Perhaps the most important feature of the new plans of Mr. Olmstead is the new line he recommends for the western bound- ary of Rock Creek Park. He shows a strip of land all along the western boundary of the park, varying in width from 150 to 200 feet, the designed to preserve for the park many beautiful features which the y in that locality presents. show beautiful reservations the several small branches of Rock ek which penetrate the section, and si 1 reservations laid out where some par- beautiful feature was sought to served. He has also desigaed a large two or three times the size of Frank- ark, around Fort Reno. Several broad Ss, or avenues, are laid out in grace- ful curves to give direct connection between the section and the drives of the Rock Creek Park, and in line with the projected streets of the first section. The obliteration of the Pierce Mill road, the Military road and the Chapel road is shown, together with portions of the Grant road wiped out. Several changes of minor importance have been recommended, and it is expected Mr. (Imstead will present his final study of the section within a fortnight. Important Improvements Ordered. The following important work, to be done under the provisions of the assessment sys- tem, nas been ordered by the Commission- er Lay cement sidewalk and reset curb— street northwest between Johnson and ith streets; K street northwest between snd 10th; Rhode Island avenue north- west between 1th and lith streets, except in front of those lots already having the improvement; D street northwest between 6th and 7th streets, under the same condi- tions; Lith street northwest between Penn- sylvania avenue and F street; I street northwest between 1th and 15th streets.

Ordered by the Commissioners, The Commissioners have ordered: That water main assessments be can- celed as follows on account of the decision in the Burgdorf case: Against lots 6 and 7, block 13, Isherwood; against lot 16, block 12, Brookland; remain- ing installments against all of block 9, plat 19, Brookland. Thet three gas lamps be established as follows: One at corner of Bancroft and Phelps place, one on Bancroft piace be- tween Phelps place and Connecticut ave- nue, one on Le Roy place between Phelps pac» and Connecticut avenue. That a gas lamp be establishei at the corner of S street and Le Droit avenue. ‘That three naphtha lamps be established as follows: One corner of North Capitol and S streets northwest, one at corner Ist and S streets northwest, one on § street between North Capitol and Ist streets northwest. ‘That sidewalk be graded on tha north side ef Cregon avenue adjacent to new houses; estimated cost, $10, one-half to be paid by the property. The Market Square. Now that the Commissioners have signi- J their intention of moving the farmers away from the north side of B street and having them to stand on the south side, the question js raised by the farmers, what right have the Commissioners to set aside such a space? It Is urged that if their wa- gons are an obstruction to the north side, they would be equally objectionable on the south. It is argued that the Commisston- ers have no right to so establish a place for them, and call attention to section 7 of the act of Congress approved October 6, 1820, which provides “That no articles of pro- vision or food shall be sold or offered for sale within the limits of the elty of Wash- ington during the market hours aforesaid s | at any other place than the market legally established.” ‘The market compiny claims the right to occupy the street, that is, the north side between 7th and 9th, not ‘only because of its claim that the space is legally within the limits of the market company’s grounds, but because it has by occupancy acquired such a right, and also under the act of May 27, 1857, which reads: “The law enacting the corporation laws in regard to the mar- ket companies shall extend and apply to the whole of the squares on which the market houses are situated, and to fifteen feet of the line of street measured from the curb lime on which said squares front.” Again, section 11 of the same act, bearing on the subject, says: “It shall be the duty of the clerks of the several markets to lay off and mark in convenient spaces the sev- eral spaces in, adjoining to, and bordering on the market squares, or opea spaces or thcrovghfares, and which may be used for the sale of, exposure for sale of vegetables or other country produce; and any person or persons using any more of said space or spaces than may be assigned them by sald clerks shall forfeit and pay a sum of not less than $ nor more than $10 for any mar- ket day or less time they may use any such place.” An Additional Private. George McCauley has been appointed an additional private on the police force. a TO CELEBRATE THEIR VICTORY. Union Republican Club Jollification at Metzerott Hall Tomorrow Night. Every necessary preparation has been made by the Union Republican Club of this city for their jollification meeting tomorrow evening, at Metzerott Hall, in cele- bration of the late republican victor- jes, Brief speeches will be made by Sen- ators Chandler, Cullom, Perkins, Frye, Du- bois, Hale and Hansbrough; by Represen- tatives Dalzell and Brosius of Pennsylvania, Hitt and Cannon of Ilinois, Wellington of Maryland, and by ex-Governors Fletcher of Missouri and Hart of Ohio: Mr. George Baber of Kentucky, Simon Wolf, Gen.

There will be suitable music for the occasion, and a great time is anticipaied. —_.___. CARSON DENIES IT. An Unfounded Rumor as to a Com- bination With Glecson. A rumor has gained currency among a number of republicans in this city that there has been an agreement between Mr. Andrew Gleeson and Mr. Perry Carson to the effect that they would jointly represent the republicans of the District of Columbia at the national republican convention. has been asserted that Messrs. Gleeson and Carson will work together to this end. To a Star reporter today Mr. Carson demed this rumor, saying: “There is not a word of truth in that rumor. I have not talked with Mr. Gleeson or any of his friends on politics for nine months, and the first sug- gestion I have had of a combination of this kind came to me through this rumor.” —_.—__ TO BE A JESUIT. Fataer Papi Will Make His Profes- sion at Frederick. Father Papi, who was secretary of the papal delegation when it first came to this country five years ago, and who relin- quished the position because of his inten- tion to join the Scciety of Jesus, will make his professton in that order at Frederick, Md., in December, where he has been un- dergoing a novitiate at St. John’s Academy. Sagres Permits for Dairies. Health department officials have started two prosecutions under the dairy law, which was passed in March of this year, and the trials of the cases will be the means of get- ting a judicial opinion on the rules and regu- lations made by the health department un- der the law. The warrants swore out.in the Police Court today were issued on the oath of Inspector Beaumont, and charge Ford & Graham, lunch room keepers at 609 15th street, and Frank P. Davis, whose lunch room is at #05 F street, with keeping dairies without the required permits. It is thought lkely that the law will be tested in these cases, as the defendants con- duct what are known as dairy lunch rooms sue not what are ordinarily known as dai- jes. The warrants Issued against the parties mentioned will be given to the police tomor- row, and the cases will probably be heard next week. —_——___. Grand Jury Indictments. The grand jury this afternoon reported an indictment against James Brown, col- ored, for muréer. Brown is held for caus- ing the death, August 26 last, of John Henry Brown, also colored, on 9th street near P by stabbing him with a_ knife. Both the deceased and the prisoner were employed by a contractor in repairing the street and quarreled over 5 cents, which had been donated by one of the men to purchase beer. The cutting and death followed, Other indictments reported were as fol- lows: Lettie Brown, assault with inte to kill Caroline Powell, October 12, 1895: Arthur Beddows, alias Eddie A. McDuffie, larceny; Walter R. Stewart, larceny; John Robinson, larceny, and Alexander W. Ward, larceny. +. The District Jail. The grand jury this afternoon appeared before Judge Cole, sitting in Criminal Court No. 1, and filed a report, in which they said: | “We have recently made a thorough in- spection of the United States jail and are gratified to say that in every respect it ap- pears to be a model institution.” The report suggests that the proper au- thorities inyite Congress to supply a wall around the jail grounds. The grand jury also visited the work- house and found general conditions the same as at the jail. es The National Geographic Society. The program for the regular meeting of the National Geographic Society at the Cosmos Club this evening witl be as fol- lows: “The Hydrography of the United States— Hydrographic Investigations,” F, H.

The Marquis Manfredi Lanza do Brolo of Palermo, Sicily, died in this city yesterday, after a long illness. He came to this coun- try about twenty-five years ago, and has since been engaged in the wholesale drug business in New York. Several years ago he married the daughter of Dr. William A. Hammond of this city, who, with three boys, survive him. The deceased was an Italian nobleman, and is said to have been related to the Queen of Italy and to the cardinal at Naples. —_—. —_—_ Another Suit. A new warrant was issued from the Police Court today against Nicola! Bros. for the aliged cnlawful occupation of the public street in South Washington. This case has attracted the attention of the Police Court for several weeks, and it was thought that the dispute between the District and the oil dealers was settled, but the latter’s action did not suit the officials and the suit has been renewed. <= The Olmstead Case Postponed. Owing to the illness of Mr. S. F. Gill, one cf the jurors, the Olmstead will case was not resumed this morning, but was postponed until Monday. Mr. Gill is suffering with a heavy cold, and although he appeared in court and stated that he felt able to take his seat in the box, Judge Bradley and coun- sel agreed that it would be wisest for him to remain at home under treatment, so as to be able to continue the hearing next week without fear of interruption. —_——_—_ Sale of I Street Property. Mr. John B. Wight, real estate agent, has sold for Mrs. General Sacket her residence, 25 I street, to ex-Senator Davis of Virginia. The property was sold for $10,000. It will be occupied by Mrs. Brown, daughter of ex-Senator Davis. ———_ “When the War Was Over. The final chapter of the absorbing my tery story, “When the War Was Over, published today on page 14.

To the Editor of The Evening Star: It was with great pleasure that I read your editorial in last evening's Star about the market question. The Commissioners, if they persist in their order to evict the small market gardeners from their present position, are not enly hurting a poor but deserving class of people, but are doing an injury to every patron of the Center market. This order also comes at a time when the market gardeners are least able to stand any setback in their business. The season through which they have just passed has been an exceedingly hard one on all growers of vegetables. The dry weath- er of the latter part of July, all of August, and September, has made the crops uf these people very short: this, connected with the prevailing hard times, has been very dis- tressing to this class of farmers. I am in- formed that the custom of selling on the outside of the market has been in existence for more than fifty years. For this reason I cannot see why this undue haste at the present time, especially at the beginning of the bad weather. This market is attend- ed principally by women, and I know that most of them do not come there to sell as a matter of choice," but by force of neces- s In other cities I know that every fa- cliity and encouragement is offered to this class of people. They not only keep up a healthy competition of trade in their line, but they spend at once much of their y among the trades people in other so that the city Is benefited by their coming. It is my opinion that this order should be held in abeyance until some place can be constructed that will give them pro- tection from the weather. I should hike to See that the board of trade had taken this matter under their consideration; belleving if proper influerce is breught to bear on those in authority, they may see that it would do no hurt for a short time longer to let this matter rest.
