Prof. Simon comb fs able to do with- out the use of crutches, as the result of an operation recently performed at Johns Hop- kins Hospital, Baltimore, by Dr. Lewellyn | Barker and Dr. Cushing. As the many friends In this city of the distinguished scientist are aware, Prof. Newcomb has been obliged for some years past to use crutches in walking, as he suffered great pain whenever any weight was placed on his limbs. Recently he underwent an examination at the hospital, and the doctors reached the conclusion that the lameness was due to a diseased nerve. It was stated that the trouble could be overcome, and an eperation was decided upon. The cuta- nus nerve of the front of the thigh was noved, and in ten days Prof. Newcomb able to walk about the hospital. Sun- he was able to walk a half mile and to and down stairs without incony 1 crutches at the ho: last Sunday he took a steamer at Bal- re and went to Boston. It is believed ire is a permanent one. eng ees REFRIGERATING WORKS.

Forecast till 8 p.m. Friday.—For the Dis- trict of Columbia, eastern Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland and Vir- ginia, fair tonight and Friday; light to fresh northeasterly winds. Weather conditions and general forecast — The weather has continued generally fair east of the Mississippi river. From the Mississippi valley to the Rocky mountains and thence over the middle and northern plateau and north Pacific coast districts the weather has been unsettled with local rains. In Idaho and eastern Washington snow is reported this morning, and at Winnemucca, Nev., the minimum temperature last night was 24 degrees. East of the Rocky moun- tains the temperature fs very near the sea- sonal average. No well-defined storm appears within the region of observation. The barometer continues low over the western states, and a depression of consid- erable depth is central near the south coast ot Newfoundland. An area of high barom- eter still occupies the lake regions and con- trols the weather conditions over the east- ern part of the country. There are no present {Indications of a marked change in weather for the middle- eastern and northeastern states. In the southern states the weather will continue unsettled with local rains. ‘On the middie Atlantic and New England coast light to fresh northerly winds will continue. On the south Atlantic coast the winds will be light to fresh from northeast. On the gulf coast light to fresh easterly winds will preva The following heavy precipitation (in inches) has been reported during the past twenty-four hours: Juplier, 1.02; Huron, 1.04, Records for Twenty-Four Hours.

A. Johnson, who received his deathblow at Cabin John bridge on the 14th instant, were brought here by Deputy Gaither. The young men were committed to the custody of the sheriff, but have not been near the county jail. On the after- noon and the following night of their ar- rival here they were playing pool and bil- ards at the Corcoran Hotel. They are under charge of Deputy Gaither at that house. They walk about the street smoking and are seemingly enjoying life and lib- erty, not being handicapped by the con- Unual presence of an officer, With this and other little acts of our officers, especially when the judge, accord- ing to a statement of Deputy ‘Gaither, makes a statement that they have no au- thority to close up the Cabin John Hotel, at least one of Montgomery's citizens has come to the conclusion that there is some- thing rotten in Denmark. Rockville, Md. JAMES E. ROLLED ——_.—_—_— The Uneven Herdic Transfer System. To the Filitor of The Evening Star: Wednesday I witnessed a poor woman in serious trouble at the corner of H and 15th streets by reason of the refusal of the her- dic transfer agent at that point to give her a transfer that would put her on a car at G and 14th streets. Now, passengers from the east at G and 1th streets can be trans- ferred to the Metropolitan road and then at H and 15th streets to the herdic. But this does not work to a passenger going east who starts in a herdic for his or her journey, The woman referred to had two small children with her, which she had brought in to see some physician. Getting a transfer from the G street road that took her on the Metropolitan to H and 18th streets and then to the herdic, she supposed that her return trip would be made in the same way. When she found out her mistake she was, of course, in deep trouble, several miles from home with an infant in her arms and @ two-and-a-half-year-old boy by the hand. A gentleman standing by noticed her trou- ble, and learning that she had no fare to pay on another road, gave her a ticket and explained to her where to go and get the G street road. This uneven and deceiving arrangement should be corrected in some way. A ticket or 5-cent piece that will take a man or wo- man from Bladensburg to Washington ought to do the same for the man or wo- man who wishes to go, or return, from Washington to Bladensburg. This should be corrected, unless there is some great financial or other embarrassment involved in the problem. CITIZEN. AN OBJECT LESSON IN A RESTAURANT. A physician puts the query: Have you never noticed in any large restaurant at lunch or dinner time the large number of hearty, vigorous old men at the tables; men whose ages run from 60 to 80 years; many of them bald and all perbaps gray, but none of them feeble or senile? Perhaps the spectacle is so common ag to bave escaped your observation or comment, but never- theless it is an object leeson which means some- thing. If you will notice what these hearty old fellows are eating you will obverve that they are not munching bran crackers nor gingerly picking thelr way through a menu card of new fangled health fcods; on the contrary, they seem to prefer « juicy roxst of beef, 2 properly turned loin of mutton, and even the deadly brviled lobster is not altogether ignored. The point of all this is that a vigorous old age depends upon good digestion and plenty of whole- scme food and not upon dieting and an endeavor to live upon bran crackers, ‘There is a certain claus of food cranks who seem to believe that meat, coffee and many other good things are rank poisons, but these cadaverous, sick- ly looking individuals are 2 walking condemnation of their own theorle ‘The matter in a nutshell is that if the stomach secretes the natural digestive juices in sufficient quantity any wholesome food will be promptly di- gested; if the stomach does not do so, and certain foods cause distress one or two of ‘Stuart's Dys- pepsia Tablets after each meal will remove all dimculty because they supply just what every weak stemach lacks, pepsin, hydro-chlorie acid, distastes and nux.
