II. E.Grow, Esq:


Dear SiT:-For nine months succeeding
the birth Of my last child my suffering
was most intense. l was afflicted with
constipation, vertigo, lumbago, and a
complication of other ailments, from
which only women suffer. During all
those weary months 1 was confined to
my bed, and room, and was attended
by different physicians, and tried
various remedies, but without avail.
heard of your success in treating
diseases by electricity, and resolved to
try your treatment, with but little faith
however, that could be cured. But
now rejoice to know that you, under
divine providence, have restored my
health. And feel it a duty owe to
the afflicted, to make my case known,
and TO recommend your system, for the
treatment of similar cases.
Respectfully,
MINNIE MADsEN.

Madsen, at Madsen's furniture store,

Engineer Henry Burtsell aud Fireman
Joseph Datzell, falling under IL, were
crushed and scalded. Burtsell was dead
when taken out. His body was terribly
mangled. Datzel was alive, but his in
juries will prove fatal. Fortunately there
were only few passengers aboard, and
thoy were all In the rear car. They were
badly shaken up, but not injured.
A thorough examination develops case
Of deliberate train wrecking by unknown
parties. A staple had been removed from

that the wheels of tho locomotive would
strike it and be thrown from the track.

and discover the perpotrator.

The Proper Manure for Lands.

We are apt to think that earth, no mat
tor of what it is composed, If 1t has plenty
of manure, will produce any crop. To
show the error of this, and the necessity
Of studying the composition Of the soil,
as we'll as of the plants, We need only look
to the constituents of few plants, as
found by chemical analysis. Oats take
from one acre of land 96 pounds of silica,
or dissolved sand, % pounds Of potash, IL
pounds Of lime, G pounds Of sulphuric
acid, pounds Of msgnesia, pounds Of
soda, and pounds of salt.
Now suppose your land originally had
no silica or sand, like swamp muck;
you cannot raise oats on It, although you
put on all the manure in the world.
Suppose 1t has silica and all the other in
gradients. but lacks phosphoric acid.
Oats cannot mature the seed. If there Is
not thirty-six pounds of potash In each
acre your crop will fail, although there
are all the othor Ingredients, and so with
lime, sulphuric acid, msgnesia, soda, and
salt. If silica is wanting it can be sup
piled with sand; IL phosphoric acid Is
wanting 1t can be supplied with bone
dust; IL potash is wanted II can be sup
piled with ashes; II lime Is wanting that
eau be applied. This shows the necessity
of every farmer having sufficient practi-
cal knowledge to know tho Ingredients
of his soil, and tho constituents of his
plants. This can bo learned by course
Of agricultural reading and experiments,
No two soils are alike, and all should
learn to know tho difference. Thus. two
swamps may look alike, and yet one OF
them be com posed Of mari. and be first
rate manure to apply directly to land, the
other be undecomposed vegetable matter,
full of resinous matter that prevents its
decay. This last would be acid, and in
furious to land, and should never be used
until 1t is decomposed by rotting TIC
effect this lime must be applied, which
united with the resinous matter in the
soil, changes 1t to soap, when tho vege'
table matter will soon decay.

Current Transactions at tho Verio


District Offices.
Tho trial of Officer Shurland was con-
tinued at police headquarters Saturday,
and the woman Mollie Bruce gave her
evidence substautisting the charge
against the officer.
A delegation representing the United
States Electric Light Company waited on
the commissioners on Saturday and pro-
tested against allowing any other COM
pany to string lights on Pennsylvania
avenue for tho purpose Of lighting II dur
ing the inauguration. The delegation
stated that they would apply for permis-
sion to light Seventh and Ninth streets.
Yho conference between the commits
sioners and the attorneys representing
the interests ofclaimAnts under contracts
with tho late board of public works was
held on Saturday. Tho attorneys argued
in favor Of House Bill No. 7,4S9, ito de-
fine the duties and liabilities Of the Dis
triot Of Columbia under certain executed
contracts" which Is designed for the
relief of contractors who did work
under the board of public works. The
contractors were paid In board Of audit
certificates, which were sold at q large
discount, causing the contractors to lose
large sums of money. Mr.. Christy, for
tho claimants, held that the whole
amount involved by the possibility in the
bill could not exceed 100000 or 100000,
instead of $5,000,000 or $6,000,000 "a ap-
pretended by the commissioners: that the
bill did not and was not intended by MIR.
Jeffords, who introduced IL, or by its pro-
moters, TO include what Is popularity
known as the differences" namely, the
difference between the full value of So
curities and the amount actually realized
by contractors upon the securities they
received; that some Of the exceptions are
simply intended to confer proper oquita-
BILE powers upon tho court OF claims,
being in the strictest sense court of law,
without the powers Of chancellor in
equity.
Commissioner Edmonds said the agree-
ment to a limit amounted to nothing be-
cause II the contractors gotta verdict from
the court of claims for the amount Of their
limit they would go to congress for the
balance.
Judge Cole held that the entiro bill was
In the interest of justice and equity, and
that any settlement heretofore made
should not bar rehesring.
Assistant Attorney General Fay said
the claim that Judge Cole represented
was contract for $4,000 yards of pave.
ment laid under the Ballard Pavement
Company at $3.50 per yard, for which
payment was made In certificates. He
also said that all the work done under the
board was paid for.
The commissioners took the matter un.
der advisement, and will present their
views at tho meeting of the house district
committee tomorrow morning.
