The law fs stated to re- quire that after delinquent lands have been under the control of the commonwealth for urs they are open to purchase by y who will pay the taxes, provided notice be given to the original own- and that after such purchase the orig- 1 owner can only recover the propery by aying the purchaser $ in excess of the accrued tax aw is denounced as offering ground for speculation.

Charles Prown, a young colored man, was a prisoner in the Police Court today on a charge of assaulting a small colored boy named Walter Johnson, it being al- legéd that he struck the boy on his head with a plece of brick intended for a colored man. The affair happened last week. A colored man named Willie Pryor particti- pated in a row with Brown, and when he (Pryor) drew a pistol Brown threw the brick at him in self-defense. It was this missile that struck the boy. Brown's per- sonal bonds were taken. TO CORE NERVOUS DYSPEPSIA TO GAIN FLESH, TO SLEEP WELL, TO KNOW WHAT APPETITE AND GOOD DIGES- TION MEAN, MAKE A TEST OF STUART'S DYSPEPSIA TABLETS, INTERESTING EXPERIENCE OF AN INDIAN- APOLIS GENTLEMAN. No troable is more common or mere misnnder- stood than nervous dyspepsia. People having it think that their serves are te blame, are surprised that they are not cured by nerve medicines and spring remedies; the real seat of mischief is lost sight of; the stomach is the origin to be looked after. ervcus dyspeptics often do not have rny pain whatever in the stomach, nor perhaps any of the usual symptoms of stomach weakness. Nervous dyspepsia shows ftself not in the stomach so much as in nearly every other organ; in some cases the beart palpitates aud fy Sreegalar; in oth- ers the kidneys are affected; in others the bowels are constipated, with headaches; still others are trcubled with loss of flesh and appetite, with the accumulation of gas, sour risings and heartburn.

The death of Dr. Brewer, as previously stated in The Star, cccurred Tues morning at the Garfield Memorial pital, where he was tra y Hos- ferred upon his return from Cuba. It was directly trace- abl> to the hardships en tered by our soldiers in the three days’ fight at Siboney and El Caney at the time of the siege of Santiago de Cuba, The Dead Man's Heroism. A returning army officer, who took part in this contest, spoke of Dr. Brewer's hero- ism in the advance line as one of the most inspiring sights he had witn ed during the entire campaign.

Dr. Brewer was a graduate of th> medi- cal department of the Columbian Univer- sity, where he graduated at the head of his some eight or nine years ago. After the completion of his studies he served as resident physician at the Children’s Hos- pital for a period of two years. He filled the same position for an equal length of time at the Garfield Memorial Hospital, where his work was such that it had much to do with the rapid progress of the insti- tulicn. After leaving the Garfield, Dr. Brewer took the examination for surgeon of the United States army, and out of one of the largest groups of applicants ever ex- amined passed firs. H2 was stationed for a while at David's Island, then Fort Riley, and for a period of two years at Fort Ke- hoe, Mont. At the breaking out of the war he was ordered to Chattanooga, thence! to Lakeland, Fla., and was among the first to be landed in Cuba. Shortly before he died, for his valiant and heroic servic2, he Was raised to a captaine While Dr. Brewer was a skilled surgeon, he was likewise a shrewd and able diag- nostician—in fact, his special work and re- archos here at the Army Medical Museum such that he was recognized as a phy- n of the greatest promise, whose loss clas: wer will be keenly felt. —_.—___ Denies Charge of Profanity. “Of cursing and swearing I am_ not guilty,” said a young woman named Kate Gray, when arraigned before Judge Scott this morning on a charge of disorderly con- duct in the Agricultural grounds. “I'll ad- mit that I was drinking last night.

Boyce has filed answer to his wife's supplemental bill for divorce, in which she alleged that the defendant and two others were trying to convey certain property in the attempt to defraud her of alimony. In the answer Mr. Boyce denies absolutely the allegations of his wife's bill in regard to a conspiracy against her. He declares that Walter Pack gave him notes to the amount of $3 p, in return for the bill of sale involving the photograph gal- lery on F street, secured by a chattel trust on the property, which was duly recorded. He declares that his wife had full knowl- edge of the sale of the photographic gal- lery, and the fact that no place was provid- ed for her residence was due to her violent opposition to his authority. Mr. Boyce says further that he has de- livered to his wife her clothing, household furniture, etc., in order that she might be provided for comfortably; that he placed money in the hands of his attorney and notified the complainant that she might have the same on application, but she never availed herself of it. Finally, the defendant declares that his wife, he’ believes, has filed this supple- mental bill for the sole purpose of harass- ing him and keeping him in expensive liti- gation, with the object of bringing upon him financial ruin. He is ready and willing, he says, to provide for his wife and chil- dren according to his means, and denies that he intends to leave the jurisdiction of the court. —_—_ > Must Show Cause.
