3 THE EVENING STAR, Sb ye ee inc To develop muscle, if that is what you're doing the washing for, perhaps’ the old way of washing with soap—rubbing the clothes up and down over a board —may be pretty good. It can’t be healthy, though, to breathe that tainted, fetid steam, and you'd better take your exercise in ways that are pleasanter. But if you’re washing clothes to get them clean, and want to do this dis- agreeable work easily, quickly, and safely— do it with Pearline. And one of the strongest points about Pearline’s washing is its saving—its economy.

A Colored Woman Assaulted and Seriously Cut—Other News of Interest. Capt. Edwin Arnold, a well-known resi- dent, met with a serious accident this morning shortly after 9 o'clock, which, it is feared, will result fatally. He was standing against an awning post in front of the grocery store of the Emrich Beef Co., on 32d street, when he toppled over, his head striking the hard granolithic pavement with great foree. Blood gushed from a bad wound in the back of his head and from his ears. He was picked up un- conscious and conveyed to his home at 6 N street, where Drs. Myers and Suter attended him. It was ascertained that he was suffering from concussion of the brain. Capt. Arnold is a veteran of the late war and came out of the service minus an arm. He is about fifty-seven years of age, and for some years has been employed in the Treasury Department. Slushed About the Head. Laura Saunders, a young colored girl, was conveyed to the Emergency Hospital yesterday evening in the patrol wagon for treatment for a number of ugly gashes across her head qnd face. According to the story of the girl, she was over at Rosslyn, Va., last evening, on a visit to friends, and while on her way home was attacked by an unknown colored man. Her screams frightened off her assailant, who made good his escape. The girl lives at 1400 27th street, and was later taken home. Ready for the Diamond.

The bright little play, “A Pair of Lunatics,” will be given, with Miss Greer and Mr. Conley in the cast; and there will be a repetition of the original play, “Daugh- ters of the Revolution,” which was given so successfully last week at the residence of Col. Heger, by the young ladies of the Army and Navy Chapter, D, A. R., and their friends. Gladness Comes Witha better understanding of the transient nature of the many phys- ical ills, which vanish before proper ef- forts—gentle efforts—pleasant efforts— rightly directed. There is comfort in the knowledge, that so many forms of sickness are not due to any actual dis- ease, but simply to a constipated condi- tion of the system, which the pleasant family laxative, Syrup of Figs, prompt- ly removes. That is why it is the only remedy with millions of families, andis everywhere esteemed so highly by all who value good health. Its beneficial effects are due to the fact, that itis the one remedy which promotes internal cleanliness without debilitating the organs on which it acts. It is therefore all iny nt, in order to get its bene- ficial effects, to note when you pur- chase, that you have the geauine arti- cele, which is manufactured by the Cali- fornia Fig Syrup Co. only and sold by all reputable druggists. If in the enjoyment of good health, and the system is regular, laxatives or other remedies are then not needed. If afflicted with any actual disease, one may be commended to the most skillful physicians, but if in need of a laxative, one should have the best, and with the well-informed everywhere, Syrup of Figs stands highest and is me aly used and gives most general sati: ion.

RECIPROCITY WITH CANADA A Liberal Leader’s Views to the Ways and Means Committee. His Party Would Make a Treaty Upon Even Broader Lines Than That of 1890. In response to invitation Edward Farrer, one of the leaders of the Mberal party in Canada, has submitted to the House sub- committee on ways and means on reciproc- ity a long statement giving the liberal view of a reciprocity arrangement between the United States and Canada. Mr. Farrer gives at great length a history of the com- mercial relations between the republic and the provinces since 1846, prior to which date there was comparatively ltttle trade across the border, largely owing to the existence of a system of preferential du- ties In Canada intended to foster trade be- tween the colonies and England, somewhat in the line of Mr. Chamberlain's proposed imperial confederation scheme. Mr. Far- rer shows by figures in what particulars he zonsiders that plan failed to help either Canada or England, and how he claims it went down under the free trade system in 1846. He points to the remarkable growah of Canada under the reciprocity treaty of 1854, and recounts the heroic, though vain efforts of the Canadians, to prevent the lapsing of that treaty. The Blaine Treaty of 1590. Touching the treaty negotiated by Mr. Blaine in 1890 to bring about reciprocity between the United States and New Found- land, which was pigeonholed by Lord Salis- bury, he alleges, because of. the jealousy of the dominon authorities. Mr. Farrer holds that it contained the principles upon which a treaty might now be framed that would be. acceptable to the Mberals in Canada, seeking, as they do, to secure the com- mercial independence of the dominion, and be relieved from the necessity of consulting England in treaty making, and of the ham- pering requirements of conceding to Eng- land the best terms offered to any foreign country. Referring to that treaty, Mr. Far- rer says: “These articles were selected with a triple object; the first was, that they should be articles of common daily use among the people, or affect the prosecution of our leading industries; the second, that they should be of such a character as to be difficult to smuggle across the lines and easy of identification as a genuine produc- tion of Canada, or the United tSates; the third, that they should be, as far as possi ble, the production of branches of industry natural to Canada or the United States, and in which a considerable inter-traflic between the two countries might reason- ably be expected. “A siding scale, by which the existing evstom duties were to be gradually re- duced, was provided for in order to give the manufacturers some time for prepara- tion for the change. One on Even Broader Lines, “The liberal party should be prepared to negotiate a treaty with the United States on somewhat similar lines, if it should be returned to power at the approaching elec- ticns. It is safe to say that it would be prepared to negotiate on even broader lines. It fully realizes that the proposition of the present government at Ottawa for a reciprocity in natural products only is scarcely fair to the United States, for most of the grain would be to Canada; that any equitable arrangement must permit the United States to pay in factory goods for the natural products and raw material ceming from Canada. Moreover, such a treaty would be beneficial to the farmers, lumbermen, fishermen and miners of C: ada in providing them with cheaper fa tory goods than they can now obtain in Canada."" In further support of a reciprocity agree- ment, Mr. Farrer contends that it would check the immigration of Canadians into the United States, which has now grown to be very formidable; that it would accord with natural conditions and the wants of both countries, and would place upon a more satisfactory basis the now delicate and dubious question of the bonded privi- lege as exercised by Canadian railroads. eee LABOR LEADERS Reports Concerning the Chief Officers of the K. of L. General Master Workman J. R. Sovereign and General Secretary-Treasurer John W. Hayes of the Knights of Labor, both of whom were seen today by a Star reporter, denied in forcible language a published report that in consequence of a disagree- ment between the two, both will probably withdraw from their offices during the present month. Both declared that there was absolutely no truth whatever in the story. Mr. Hayes ridiculed the idea that he wishes to step down and out of his own office as soon as Mr. Sovereign’s resignation is accepted by the executive board and his successor appointed. He also denied the assertion that ne occupies a good posi- tion with a gas company, to which he wishes to devote his undivided attention and leave the conduct of his department to other hands. He further sald that there Was no truth in a report that he expressed a wish to resign a month ago, but had said he would not do so before Sovereign's resignation was tendered by the latter. Mr. Sovereign also pronounced as absurd DENY THEM. the report that he had not been paid his salary of $3,000 a year by Secretary-Treas- urer Hayes, or that he has expressed him- self as heartily tired of posing in his pres- ent position. Mr. Sovereign assured The Star reporter that there are no members of the executive board in Washington other than those who spend most of their time here—Messrg. Hayes, Martin and him- self—and that no meeting of the board has been called or is contemplated. So far as appears to any one on the out- side the relations existing between Messrs. Sovereign and Hayes are of the most har- monious character, and they seem to be on terms of most intimate friendship. They returned together a few days ago from a business trip to Pittsburg, and when the reporter left them at headquarters today were engaged in friendly conversation on the subject of the rumors which the re- porter called to their attention. Mr. H. B. Martin of the executive board also said there wus not a particle of foun- dation for the reports referred to. ee Passed Over the Mayors’ Vetoes. The greater New York bill was passed by the New York senate over the vetoes of the mayors of New York and Brooklyn yesterday. The vote was 34 ayes to 14 noes. The assembly has still to act, and it 1s claimed will also pass the bill. ——__+ e+ Death of Lieut. Wilson. The War Department has been notified of the death, Tuesday, in New York, of Jas. E. Wilson, late Heutenant in the fifth in- fantry, who had resigned his commission after having been confined in St. Elizabeth Asylum. This case recently figured before the War Department through the unsuc- cesstul efforts of Mrs. Wilson to induce the authorities to compel the officer, while in the asylum, to devote a portion of his salary toward the maintenance of his wife. The efforts of the department in her behalf are said to have caused the officer to re- sign his commission.

A result of the struggle for delegates to St. Louis, which has surprised nearly all the politicians in Congress, is the conyinc- ing indication that it is the tariff rather than the financial question that the people are generally thinking of. When Congress opened, and up to a few weeks ago, the opinion was almost universal in Congress that the financial question would be the issue in the coming presidential campaign, practically to the exclusion of everything else. The conviction has gradually gained ground that public attention is directed to the tariff, ard that the sentiment in favor of protection has grown so vigorously that it is clamorous for expression. According to good democratic authority, this senti- ment has jumped over the barrier, and is spreading into the democratic ranks. Signs are regarded as pointing to a tremendous popular swell in favor of high protection duties. It was thought that the business interests would cry hands off the tariff and demand that the present tariff be al- lowed to stand, rather than have business disturbed by further agitation at this time. Expressions of popular sentiment have proven that this is not the case, and po- litical caiculations have been generally un- settled. Many of the “‘long-headed” repub- licans were deceived by this calculation on “business conservatism,” and the program for this Congress was influenced to some extent by this misapprehension. Many re- publicans now confess privately that they started out with an erroneous idea of what the demand of the business interest would be. The democrats are anxious to avoid this issue. The paradox of the situation is that both factions of the democrats (with but a few individual exceptions) want to avoid the tariff issue, from directly opposite mo- tives. The gold democrats, who are ulso the chief low tariff men, want the depres- sion in business and general hard times attributed to the silver agitation. ‘The sil- ver democrats want to ignore the tariff question altogether in order to make it possible for them to unite with the silver republicans in support of a free coinage candidate. They expect to nominate such a candidate at the Chicago convention, and by ignoring the tariff question they exp2ct to make it possible for Teller, Dubois, Car- ter, Cannon, Mantle and other silver re- publicans to come to his support. The pe- cular situation is thus presented of the democrats, at least temporarily, abandon- ing low tariff, while the republicans, prob- ably with many recruits from democratic ranks, shouting enthusiastically for pro- tection and tending toward the higaest extreme in that direction. + THE PASTOR WELCOMED. Cordial Reception Tendered to Rev. H. R. Stricklen, A reception to Rev. H. R. Stricklen, the rew pastor of Hamline M. E. Church, was given last night by the members of the congregation, and a- very large number of Hamline’s flock shcok hands with the minister and his ite. The exercises took place in the church auditorium, which was prettily decordted. On the platform was seated Mr. E. ¥. Booraem, master of ceremonies, togethér with the speakers of the evening, and Bishop Hurst, with a number of Methodist ministers, including Presiding Elder Wilgon, Drs. Baldwin, Mul- len, Cassard, Van Afsdale and Leech. Let- ters of congratulation were. read from Revs. W. H. Chapman, W. H Richardson, S. M. Hartsock ard Alexander Bielaski. Addresses were made by representatives of the different societies and organizations in the congregation, welcoming the pastor to the churca and offering him every en- couragement in cattying forward the work so well begun. Mr. H. B, Moulton spoke on behalf of tke, official board of the church; the Sunday school was represented by Superiutendent T B. Towner; the Ep- worth League by President E.’W. Wil- liams, and the Ladies’ Aid Society by Rev. John R. Wright, D.D. Rev. Mr. Stricklen made a feeling re- sponse, saying that he was almost too well ecquainted with the people of his new charge to render a reception for meeting the members of the congregation necessary. He pledged his stpport to all the depart- ments of the cMurch, which, he declared, were doing noble and efficient work. Bishop Hurst also made a few remarks, complimenting the church on its progres- sive, united and harmonious spirit. Throughout the program musical selec- tions were interspersed, solos being render- ed by Miss E. Williams, Miss Ida O'Neal and Mr. J. W. Humphrey, and these three, to- gether with Mr. J. Al Rose, sang in quar- tet. When the formal prcgram had been brought to a close Mr. Stricklen, his wife and little daughter, stood within the chan- cel rail, while the members of the congre- gation filed by and individually welcomed them, after which they all adjourned to the floor below, where refreshments were served by the Ladies’ Ald Society. The committees in charge were com- posed of H. B. Moulton, L. I. O'Neal, J. W. Davis, G. W. F. Swartzell and T. B. Towner for the official board; M. A. Wat- son, Miss Ida O'Neal and Miss Effie Perry for the Epworth League, and Mrs. J. W. Davis, Mrs. E. I. Booraem, Mrs. T. B. Towner, Mrs. J. R. Wright, Mrs. Fanny Perry Polkinhorn, Mrs. D.|D. Burdette, Mrs. E. D. Godfrey, Mrs. D. C. Reinohl, Mrs. T. Humphrey, Mrs. J. R. Quinter and Mrs. Williams for the Ladies’ Aid Society. eS THE OLD NATIONAL RIFLES, Survivors of 1561 Gather Around the Festive Board. Last night the survivors of the National Rifles of 1861 held, at Freund's, their an- nual reunion and banquet, commemorating the thirty-fifth anniversary of their mus- ter into the service of the United States at the outbreak of the rebellion. There were present the following mem- bers: Edward T. Mathews, president; Good- win ¥. AtLee, secretary; Dr. Noble D. Larner, surgeon; Governor Alex. R. Shep- herd, Paymaster General Thadeus H. Stan- ton, Major John T. Clements, Col. Wm. G. Moore, Joseph McMakin, Thos. Shepherd, G. A. Brandt, Gilbert B. Towles, T. H. Alexander, Thos. Story, Thos. G. Foster and Wm. G. Phillips. Sergeant McMakin read a sketch of the origin, growth and general history of the company, from its beginning, in November, 1859. Many of the events of the company's earlier existence were narrated, and’ af- forded great entertainment to the comrades present, inciting animated discussions and awakening a train of individual reminis- cences, which carrigd the evening far into the small hours before the passing of the time was noticed. Interesting speeclies were made by Com- rades Shepherd, Stanton, Moore, Larner, Clements, Story and. others. A flashlight photograph was taken of those assembled around the festive board by Comrade Brandt, who had presented to the members pictures of- Temperance Hall, the company’s old armory. Letters were received from Comrades W. O. Stoddard, Albert P. Barnes and others at a distance regretting their inability to attend. A not- able communication;: was one from three “Pacific coasters,” Cols. W. R. Smedberg, Wm. Hawley and Wm. Maynadier, all of whom served in the old National Rifles. —_. ——_— Wanted Some Milk. Jesse Page, a colored boy, who drives a cart, started from home this morning be- tween 4 and 5 o’clozk to go to work, but instead of going direct to his place of em- ployment he stopped on Florida avenue with a friend long enough to get a quart jar of milk from a front door. He had his lunch with him, but no liquid #ith which to wash it down, and had not a policeman appeared at the wrong time for him, he would have enjoyed the beverage at noon. But jars of milk had been missed from several houses in that locality, and the police had heard complaints about this mean character of stealing, and so Police- man Brown was on the lookout for those who had been enjoying free milk. Both Jesse and the milk were taken to the sta- tion, and later Judge Miller heard the case. The policeman told of the boy’s conduct and the court imposed a fine of $10 or thirty days, 9 WHICH OF THESE APPLIES TO YOUR CASE?

The report in favor of New Mexico was ordered some days ago, and that in favor of Arizona was adopted yesterday. The admission of these two new states would probably add four more to the number of silver men in the Senate, and it is said that therefore the bills will not be permit- ted to pass the two houses. ‘The statement is made, however, that the action of the House committee was made possible through the direct influence of Mr. Quay. —__+ © «_______ A New Cap for the Marine Corps. A-board of officers of the marine corps has selected a new cap for that service, the adoption of which, however, depends upon the action of the Secretary of the Navy in the matter. The new cap has a distinctly foreign appearance, and is unlike the uni- form cap of either the army or navy. It is said,however,to possess superior advantages over the present -headgear, in that it has better ventilation and affords better pro- tection. The crown is bell shaped, and is higher in front than at the back. Around its rim and up the sides extends a black braid. Around the face there is an ornamental gold strap, half an inch thick, above which, at the center, is the corps device—a half globe, showing the western hemisphere, backed by an anchor and surmounted by an eagle with spread wings, and bearing a scroll, with the motto “Semper Fidelis.” The visor of the cap has the angle adopted for the army and used extensively abroad.
