suffered wiih Rheumatism in my let
shoulder and right arm, and last fall /
was incapable OF attending to my duties,
and lay many night unable to sleep on
account OF terrible pains A few weeks
ago a severe attack OF this trouble struck
me, and this time | concluded to try the
ST. JAcoBs Or, must acknowledge,
with but little confidence in its merits.
! freely confess that the result has com
pletely astonished me. The first APP
plication relieved the pain very materi-
ally, and the continued use OF only two
bottles has completely cured me Of this
chronic evil, and that, after the most
eminent physicians and their prescnp-

consider it duty to publish the above

The method may be explained very

depends entirely, working on the ordi-

style, whether success will crown your
efforts We will suppose it does not.
When you find the blocks all right ex-

COLLEGE CONCERT.


it has been tie complaint OF large

at the concerts given IN this city, both
by foreign and local talent, too large a
space was given on the programme to
classic music and not enough 10 the SIM
ple ballads that all love. At the coming
concert to be given by the Wash-Jeii,
Glee Club at the Academy OF Music,
next Friday evening Il number of these
old songs will he given, and we are sure
that our musical people will take advan-
tage OF the opportunity offered and
crowd the house. A number OF college
choruses, those calculated to make one
smile, nothing more, will also be render
cd, and this, with the charming vocalist
from Pittsburgh, Miss Jean Wallace, q
soprano OF extraordinary power, will
make most attractive programme and
one that all should hear.
KATE CLAYTON.
We are to have this sterling actress
with US again on the Sth aud 9th insts.
She is quite iayorite among our thea
tre-going people, and the indications are
that the house will he crowded both
nights. The New York Herald, in CON-
menting upon her rendition of the
Double Marriage says;
Miss Kate ClaXton deserves nota little
praise for the production, under her
management, at the Lyceum Theatre,
last evening, OF Charles Reade's drama
tizatiOn OF Double Marriage" The au-
dienee was large, standing room uncom-

is no reason why play SO full OF dra-

AMERICAN vs.. IRISH,
As will he noticed by our advertising
columns this morning, arrangements
have all been made for the walking
match between the American and Irish
Teams next Saturday afternoon at the
Academy OF Music. The personnel OF
the teams is as follows; Ed. +. Reece,
Captain OF the American Team, is the
winner of a cup in the last Won Blumen
contest, and is one OF the best amateur
walkers in this vicinity. Vim. Brice-
land, the second man on this team, is
an oarsman OF some note, having scored
several victories over home and foreign
oarsmen. John Croughan is a promi-
nent man employed in the Benwood
nil. OF the IRISH Team, Arthur Ger
agility, the Captain, is the winner OF the
cup in the last Won Blumen match.

Next Monday night Manager Cohn

bright and sparkling programme.
