Dr. Cowden’s treatment, that has {ifted the darkpess and blight of the word “incurable’” from hendreds of thousands of these cases of diseases | 2 the Throat. Bronchial Tubes and Langs, works its curative action for two reasons: (1) It reaches every sore spot, from the orlic® of the “nos te the deepest part of the lungs, to the innermost recesses of the middle ear. (2) Instead of irritating, inflaming and feeding the fires of the disease, it soothes, quiets, heals and cures. What isthe treatment that cures these condi- tions, once regarded incurable? By what process does it restore the diseased membrane, remove the poison and relieve the screners of disease? Let the experience of persons cured and being cured tell. HOW IT CURES COMMON CATARRE. is a petient taking treatment for Catarrh Head. He breathes the scothing medication throvgb his nestrils, and the nusal channels open up, tl ap feel'ng in the head leaves, and he’ can he naturally. through the nose again. The dull pains across the front of the head fade away, and the nasal membrane is soothed until inflammatioa and soreness are all gone. The bad oder df the breath passes away. aid the lost sense of smell returns. The dropping in the throat ‘s checked, the nose does not stop up toward nigat the sucezing and snuffing have ceasel. the discharge from the nose grows less and less and finally stops altogether. The disease has been vhecked and eradicated from the sys*em before #t ever reached the throat. It has not been driven down the throat or into bis lungs or into his ears, as is 89 often done by other treatments. HOW IT CURES CATARRE OF THE THROAT is another patient who bad Catarrh in the He caught cold after cold. and the disease down into bis throat. He Lreathes and in the disease-bapishing medication. bathes the membranes of his head and throat. ‘The soreness of the head and throat becomes Jess and the desire to hawk and spit is disappearing, the sens of taste is returning and the voice again becomes soft and melodions. There is no more gagging and vomiting In the morning. No longer does every exposure to the weather result in a stnffed-up throat that becomes sore and inflamed, and no longer does he find bis throat and tone dry as chips when he wakes from an unrefreshl: s HOW IT CORES ~ CATARREAL DEAFNESS Here is another patient who for years had heen a sufferer. Every fresh cold seemed to stay longer than former colds. and he noticed that his ears t stopped up and his hearing became duller and duller and there were ringing and buyzing noixes in his ears. The catarrh had passed upward and backward from the throat along the custachi: tubes leading from th» throat into the ea had visited throat doctcrs and ear dectors and eatarrh doctors without relief. In this condition we @nd him inhaling the never-failing medication, Here in the Here Head. It and soor he notices a change. The noises in the ear stop. there is no more discharge. the hearing gets better, end finally the tubes of the ears open up and sometting seems to give way in the head. His hearing had completely returned. No wonder he considers the result a marvel. $5 A MONTH. ‘This rate applies to all patients and all diseases, includes «1 medicines, visits to office, examination and treatment.

RECORDS OF THE VOTING CONTESTS a) =| The Order of the Eastern Star Will Shine Tonight. —— SaCRED CONCERT os GRAND ‘The Masonic fair and exposition has al- ready attained a success far beyond the'ex- p2ctations of its energetic promoters, and the crowds which greeted its opening at the beginning of the week have steadily in- creased each afternoon and night, while the sam3 advancement has been cheerfully noted by Chairman Samuel H. Walker in the nightly returns. Probably in no other department of the fair is the superior wis- dom of the splendid management better shown than .in this important branch. Tr2asurer Walker has adopted a novel sys- tem of keeping the accounts of the enter- prise, and, multifarious as they are, he can tell at any time by a glance at a single sheet precis2ly the amount of receipts from all sowrces and the expenditures for all} purposes. His report to the board of con- trol at its meeting last night was more than gratifying, and no doubt was felt that the same satisfactory record would b2 kept up until the fair closes one week from to- night? Scottish Rite Visitors. The members of the Ancient and Accept- ed Order of the Scottish Rite were the guests of honor last night, and over a thou- sand of them were in attendance, accompa- nied by the ladies of their families and a considerable numb:r of charming Creatures who from al} appearances will be members of Masons’ families one of these days. Mr. James LansLurfh was the master of cere- monies, and the lodg2s, chapters, councils and consistories in attendance, and their officers, were as follows: Mithras Lodge of Perfection, No. 1, R. B. Nixon, C. H. Allender, F. W. Johnson, W. H, Barstow and W. H. Olcott; Oriznt Lodge of Perfection, No. 2, Rezin W. Darby, J. B. Thomas, John E. Wagner, James 8. Rae- burn and Frank Thomas; Evangelist Chap- ter Rose Croix, William M. Roome, F. A. Sebring, C. S. Hyer, G. H. Walker and T. Somerville, sr.; Robert De Bruce Council of Kadosh, C. T. Caldwell, G. E. Corson and E. M. Willis; Alb2rt Pike Consistory, A. B. Coolidge, H. Neilson and Allison Nailor, jr. While the Castle of Coeur de Leon was naturally the center of attraction to the Scottish Rite Masons, they did not confine their generous contributions to their own booth by a1.y means, but spread a largess of lucre over everything in Convention Hall and the Armory Annex also. The “Olde English Village” naturally attracted @ great many of them, while the Swiss chalet, which occupied the gailery over the main entrance, was also a magnet to draw the crowds. The opportunity afford- ed by the elevated position of the Swiss chalet to secure a complete view of the beautiful scene in Convention Hall is being more and more taken advantage of as it becomes known, and it is possible for one to enjoy all the refreshments of the season and at the same time feast the eyes from Pentalpha’s coign of vantage.

Eastern Star Ladies Tonight. The various bodies connected with the Order of the Eastern Star will storm Con- vention Hall and the annex tonight, and Mr. George Gibson .will be there to act as master of ceremonies, and to see that not a single man who comes takes more than car fare home with him. The Order of the Eastern Star, as is well known; is composed of ladies, and consequently the assemblage tonight will be notable, and every man in town who’allows any other‘ engagement to prevent his appearance.on the scene may be put down-as a chronic dyspeptic or @ confirmed bachelor. . ‘The program for the entertamment which will be given on the platform above the main entrattee will include many unusually good features. Yousouf, who rejoices in the appellation of the “Terrible Turk,” and is the champion r of the world, will appear in an’exhibition bout with his train- er.. There will be buck and wing dancing by the colored comedians, Billy English and Pearl Wood, tonight; the Parquets will exhibit fancy bicycle riding; Master Wil- Me Collier will indulge in some of his phe- nomenal dancing, and the Burnt Cork Club will show what a cake walk is like, in high- -| tone, aristocratic colored society. Grand Sacred Concert. At the board of control meeting last night it was decided, on the suggestion of Mr. James L. Norris, who fs always making appropriate propositions in the interest of the , to hold a grand sacred temple project concert at Convention Hall tomorsow even- Soe ah tb c : tions during the evening. The doors wilt be opened at 7 o’clack and the concert, begin- ning at 7:30, will be preceded by prayer by the Rev. Byron Sunderland. Mr. Norris went to New York laf night to attend the Croker banquethhis Mvening, but he will be batk early in the morning and have charge of the arfangeafents for the concert. Fair Nétes 6f Interest. Mrs. J. Henry Small, jr., the wife of the energetic presidept ofthe board of control, has become, by & stréke of lucky circum- stances, the possessor of Uncle Sam, the Angora cat wh hag; been casting such longing glances in the direction of Queen Lil, the other Angora cat, belonging to the board of contror Quén Lil and the cata- thoscope are stfll suffering from severe bronchial troubles; yut early next week they are expected to be fully recovered, and then what Queen! Lil will say about the fair and Uncle Sam-end: things in general will be eagerly awaited. Many attractions have been added to the Midway Plaisance features in the Armory Annex, and the tastefully decorated and brilliantly lighted covered bridge connect- ing the latter with Convention Hall is a well-crowded promenade. In the Annex Hall, just at the end of this bridge, are blackboards containing the records of the voting of the articles under the board of control. There is'a menagerie in the big covered court of the annex, which may be paraded through the hall next Wednesday after- noon, when the orphans from the various orphan asylums in the District are being entertained at the fair. A pointer dog, a pig of the shoat description, a mournful- visaged sheep, a number of chickens, big and little, and a goat, who prides himself upon his ability to eat the surplus circula- tion of any yellow journal printed in the country, are among the attractions in this aggregation. The program of entertainment at the Ola English Village tonight will be as fol- lows: 5 Part 1, 7:45 p.m.—Soubrette specialties, Miss Elsie Worth;- recitation, Miss May Clemmons. Intermission.

Alleged That He is Required to Be Ready for Immediate Service —General News. Ey:ning, Star Bureau, , No.;29 King street, Bell,telephone No. 106, ALEXANDRIA; Va., April 16, 1898. It is rumored‘ that’Capt. Albert Bryan of the Alexandria Light Infantry has re- ceived orders from Adjt. Gen. Nalle to held his company in geadiness to move at any moment. The Star reporter this morn- ing endeavored to hate the rumor verified, but without sucttess:'Quartermaster A pich stated that;he fad not. received an: orders, but thatshe was sure such orders had been received. It is also rumored, that Sergt. Krauss of the Third Regiment,Fleld Band has re- ceived the same.order, Sergt. Krauss has for the past thigty days been instrucfins his men in field music, évidently expecting service at any moment. Several trumpet- ers have recently been enlisted. The boys are all anxious for a scrap, and only await the orders to move. Captain Bryan stated to The Star reporter that he had rezently received several applications from young men in Washington to join his command, but that he had been compelled to decline to ealist them. The applicants stated that they wanted to enlist in a Vir- ginia company, so as to be under the com- mand of General Fitzhugh Lee, whe, it is thought, will lead the V8rginia troops. Police Court, Mayor Simpson this morning disposed of the following cases in the police court: Thos. Johnson, colored, arrested by Officer Davis, charged with stealing chickens, was held for further examination; Ricnard Berry, arrested by Officer Young, charged with being disorderly, was fined $5, in de- fault of which he went down for twenty days; Owen Burke, a small colored bo! charged with striking another small bo with 2 stone, was fined §5. A Testimonial. Yesterday a delegation of railroad’ en- gineers waited upon Mr. Leonard Marbury, commonwealth’s attorney, and, through their spokesman, Mr. Thomas E. Gorham, presented him with a handsome jeweled Knight Templar's charm, in recognition of the many services rendered by this gentle- man, in a legal manner, to them. The Presentation speech was made by Mr. Thos. E. Gorham, and was feelingly responded to by Mr. Marbury. The party, besides Mr. Gorham, consisted of Messrs. James B. Fitzgerald, Charles W. Rudd, Robert Goods and others. Receives a Sur; Mr. William Bontz, engineer of the Hy- draulicn Fire Company, yesterday had a practical joke played. upon aim. A mem:- ber of the Baltimore fire department fixed up a box of matches and sent them to him ‘by express. The box was wrapped in about twenty-five pounds of old newspapers. Ar. express charge of 50 cents was paid by Mr. Bontz. His friends today have been giving him a quiet laugh. Lovelace Brown’s Trial. . The case of Lovelace Brown, the colored man churged with the murder of his son at Mero, in Fairfax county, January 19 last, and who has been confined in the county jail at Fairfax Court House since that time, will coyne’ up for trial Monday, when the regular April term opens.
