Smith, a colored man, died this morning, the acting coroner will per- form an autopsy this afternoon, to deter- mine the cause of death. Smith about forty years old, and lived at No. 6) G street southwest. He was employed in the stable of Mr. Richards, No. 407 New Jersey ave- nue southeast, and his dead body was found in the stable about 11:30 o'clock this merning. The man had died in one of the stalis where there was a horse, and while it is supposed that the horse probably kicked him, no outward evidence of violence could be found on his body The police removed the remains to the morgue, where the autopsy will be held. A brother of the dead man called at the morgue to make some inquiries about the deceased. His brother, he said, had not been sick, and for this reason, among oth- ers, the autopsy will be held. —_——+ Alleged Gift Enterprise. Detective Carter called at the rooms of the Empire Art Company, No. 606 13th street northwest, this morning, and ar- rested Sigmund Berger on a charge of con- ducting a gift enterprise. He protested that he was only a collector and was not the responsible party, but the officer had @ warrant for him and he had to go. It is alleged that the defendant, acting as can- vasser for the Standard Publishing Com- pany, solicited subscriptions and made col- lections. Under the terms of the contract, the subscribers were to pay 10 cents a num- ber for magazines, and when they had paid $8.50 they were entitled to a prize. Mrs. Kate Raynor alleges that she was promised a set of china. The prize was not given her, she alleges, and she, therefore, swore out the warrant. ‘The paper charges a violation of section 1176 of the Revised Statutes relating to the District, and the case may be heard in court tomorrow. _— If you want anything, try an ad. in The Star.

NEW ORLEANS, La., July 27.—A rather sensational statement wa» made openly yesterday at Galveston. It was to the ef- fect that the winning company, the Gov- ernor’s Guard of Austin, received the cup, but not the cash prize of $3,000 at San An- toro. The drill association lost thousands of dollars on the enterprise, and, so the Galveston story has it, the Governor's Guard were awarded the cup, with the un- derstanding that the $3,000 check should be returned. Serious Charge Against Roberdeau. It is avowed in Galveston with emphasis, and what is declared to be without fear of successful contradiction, that several days before his company appeared before the judges Capt. Roberdeau received a direct tip as to the nature of the alleged difficult feature in the program. The Galveston folks seemed to believe that the whole af- fair was cut and dried, and they said with evident sincerity that the Morton Cadets were deliberately robbed of first prize and the championship. It was said, and re- iterated all along during drill week. that the cup would not leave the state of Texas. All the visiting companies were thoroughly disgusted with the award and with their treatment while in Camp Culberson. Glad to Leave Camp Culberson. At previous drills the Morton Cadets ex- perienced a lingering desire to remain. The feeling was diametrically reversed at San Antonio. At Galveston and several other towns along the route the Mortons have been greeted with “Hurrah for the cham- pion company.” It seems to be generally considered thit the San Antonio award was to say the least a little off color. The Sealy Rifles frankly admitted that the Mortons easily won the cup. 1 Mortons breakfasted this morning in New Orleans on the return trip from San Antonio. If all goes well the boys will dine at Mobile and partake of a late sup- per at Atlanta. Trip to Galveston. By far the most enjoyable feature of the trip was the visit yesterday afternoon to Galveston.

Has Been in Failing Health for Past Six Years. . ANN ARBOR, Mich., July 27.—Judge Thomas M. Cooley has been taken to a sanitarium located at Flint, Mich. Judge Cooley's breakdown can be said to date from the time he resigned from the Interstate commerce commission in 1891. When connected with the commission he plunged deeply into the intricacies of rail- road and commercial affairs with an ardor which, while it gave him a wider, 12 not whore enduring. name, could not help but PROMISED 70 REFUND CASH PRIZE) tell upon his constitution, already impaired by age and overwork. Judge Cooley is seventy-three years of age, and was elected to three terms in the Michigan supreme court. He also published many text books and revised and edited those of other authors. There is but little hope of his recovery, his mind having al- most entirely left him. Still at times he is perfectly rational and speaks of his in- firmity. — If you want anything, try an ad. in The Star. If anybody has what you wish, you will get an answer. Be Sa ee REASONS FOR SHUTTING DOWN. Mr. Coolidge Says Business Was Dull in the Amoskeng Mills. BOSTON, Mass., July Mr. T.

EAST NORTHFIELD, Mass., July 27.— The last of the summer conferences here, the general conference for Christian work- . will open next Thursday, to continue 1 September 16. This conference gener- ally surpasses all the other summer meet- ings in number of sessions and in attend- ance, and from present evidences this year will bring a larger gathering than ever. Evangelist D. L. Moody will have charge of all the meetings, and as his dislike for programs is well known it will be understood why it fs impossible to give in advance the arrangements for the daily proceedings, except in bare outline. It fs known that there will be at least two platform addresses in the morning in the auditorium, one at 10 o'clock and the other at 11 o'clock.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 27.—The collector of customs for this port has received tele- graphic instructions from the Treasury De- partment to the effect that the new tariff law is in operaticn and that it went into effect on Saturday last. Owing to the ab- sence of a copy of the bill as it was finally passed by Congress and approved by the President, the report of the conference committee being the nearest approach to it, there is some question as to just how to proceed with the entry of goods and the payment of duties. Lack of familiar- ity with the changes that the new law makes in the schedule is another source of embarrassment. Collector Jackson has de- cided that where the importers made their entries as nearly in accordance with the new law as was practicable the entries would be accepted and any errors would be corrected when the duties were finally liquidated. The steamer China, which arrived from the orient on Saturday last, was loaded with dutiable goods and many of the im- porters thought that they would be allowed to land their goods under the old law, but the instructions received from the Treas- ury Department have dispelled that idea. Collector Jackson expects to have the affairs of his office settled by the time the Belgic arrives on the 3d of August. See After Washington’s Hop Crop. CHEHALIS, Wash., July 27.—Representa- tives of eastern hop-buying firms have been in town several days and displayed great eagerness to make contracts for the 1897 crop. Last week the best quality sold for 7 cents, but now 8% and even 10 cents a pound is offered, and the latter figure has been refused by several parties. The pros- pects for the growing crop are exceedingly good. "i ——-._— Welborn’s Friends Say He in Insane.

They life left the body almost immediately a fter the fall of the trap. Crime Was Most Brutal. Dadario’s crime was one of the most brutal and shocking in police annals of this city. On the morning of January 25, 1897, the body of Modestino Moffo, aged three years, was found frozen stiff in an alley in the rear of S12 Emeline reet. Much mystery surrounded the ca: but finally the little body was identified by Mr. Moffo as that of his child, who had been ise from home fer two days. The informed the police that Da‘jario had visited his house two nights before the discovery of the body and had taken the child out for a walk, under the pretense of buying it candy. Dadario’s arrest fol- lowed, and, after a brief trial, he was convicted of the child's murder. The de- tails revealed by the evidence given at the trial were most revolting. The brute had taken the little fellow into an unoccupied house and there committed a fiendish as- sault upon him. Then, after strangling the child to death he threw the body from the roof of the house into the alley, where it was subsequently found. Parties All Italians. All the parties involved were Italians. Dadario was unable to speak a word of English, and was apparently not of suffi- cient intelligence to realize the enormity of his terrible crime. At the trial he en- tered a general denial of his guilt. an ae HAZLEBEECH WINS CRAVEN STAKES Aristoeratic Patronnge at the Good- wood Meeting Todny.

RHEA FOR SENATOR Kentucky Silver Democrats Have De- cided to Shelve Blackburn. WANT NEW BLOOD IN THE CONTEST Bitter Factional Fight Continues in Republican Ranks. CAMPAIGN PREPARATIONS ———— Special Dispatch to The Evening Star. LOUISVILLE, Ky., July 27. breezes are laden with political rumors, many of them interesting and full of sur- prises. One of these is that the doughty Blackburn, who for twenty years sat in the councils of his party at Washington and thundered away with his eloquence in the halls of the Senate, is to be retired without pay. pered around among the wiseacres that Blackburn was to be shelved and another and younger silverite given the whip to lead the unruly team, which has balked more thap once in recent years. It is now known that the man chosen for the leader- ship of the silver forces in the state is Congressman John S. Rhea of the “bloody third” district. Though this has been hint- ed at often, it remains for the correspond- ent of this newspaper to state positively that the report is founded on fact. Mr. Rhea will be put forward by his admirers and adherents for United States senator, to succeed Senator Lindsay, the junior member of the Kentucky delegation. The wires are being laid for this piece of po- litical fireworks, and it will be set off as soon as the opportunity is ripe. Gov. Bradley Uneasy. Uneasy lies the head of Governor Brad- ley, the first republican executive in the history of Kentucky, for he knows full well that the opposition is after his scalp and will have it in the next election. Al- ready plans have been made for defeating Governor Bradley for re-election, and, un- less these miscarry, he will never domicile at the state house again after next year. The few ardent supporters of P. Wat Hardin are anxious for him to try his hand at racing, but there are others, and ma others, who realize that his political star has set, never to rise again. For the gubernatorial honor which Mr. Hardin covets the silver men will next select Con- gressman Evan Settle of: the old Ashland district. He is the recognized champion of silver in central Kentucky, and his friends insist that he can come nearer bringing out the full strength of his party than any other leader in it. They say he can bring the two warring factions together and make the party present an unbroken front to the enemy for the first time in years. There is no denying that the stiverites stand the best show of winning in the gubernatorial race, if the republicans con- tinue their bickerings and party quarrels. Todd Will Be Defeated.

The first way is from tmperfe:t action of the"kidneys, The second way is fron careless local treatment of other diseases, CHIEF CAUSE: Unhealthy urine from unhealthy kidneys is the chief cause of: bladder troubles. 80 the womb, like the bladder, was created for one purpose, and if not doctored too much is not Mable to weakness or diserse, except in rare cases. It is situated back of and very close to the bladder, therefore any pain, disease or inconvenience mant- fested in the kidneys, back, bladder or urinary passage 1s often, by mistake, attributed to female ‘weakness or womb trouble of some sort. The error is easily made and may be as easily avoided.

If you need a medicine you should have the best. At druggists, fifty cents and one dollar. You may have a sample bottle and pamphlet, both sent free by mail, ‘Mention The Bvening Star and send your address to Dr. Kilmer & Oo., Bingham- ton, N, ¥.
