a Fair Trial

OF Hoods Sarsaparilla for scrofula, salt rheum,
or any affection caused by impure blood, is suff-
cient to convince any one of the superior and
peculiar curative powers of this medicine. The
following statement is right to the point;
ssMy daughter Mary was afflicted with scrof-
ulous sore neck from the time she was % months
old till she became years of age. Jumps formed
in her neck, causing great annoyance. and two OF
them, after growing TO the size Of a pigeons egg,
broke and discharged. One became q running
sore for more than three years We thought we
would give HOODS Sarsaparilla thorough trial
We began with it in January. and in few months
after she had taken five bottles, all suppuratiOn
had ceased. We then waited three months
when as a new lump was beginning to form, we
again gave her Hoods Sarsaparilla: After she
had taken less than two bottles the lump and all
indications of scrofula had entirely disappeared
and now she seems to be a healthy child"

Every one knows that cocoa is an excellent
tonic. Taken in the morning, at breakfast 1t has
no equal for nutrition, and strengthening quail
ties, but it can be taken with advantage at any
time. 1t is especially recommended for nursing
mothers, to whom its benefits are invaluable.
Unfortunately, cocoa is sometimes mixed with
starch, arrowroot, sugar, and thus loses great
part Of its special properties; hence, great care
should be taken to procure the best in the mar
ket. Bakers Breakfast Cocoa and Chocolate
preparations have long been the standard of ex-
cellence, and are guaranteed absolutely pure.

FREE STREET CHURCH.

Just before commencing his sermon at
Free street Baptist church yesterday morn
ing. Mr.. Dunn called the attention of the
congregation to the fact that two of the for
mer pastors of the church had passed away
within few days of each other. Rev. Lewis
Colby was the second pastor of the church,
holding the pastorate for two and half
years. DIR. Bosworth was called in 1856 and
was with the society during the three crisis
of its existence which included the financial
struggle, and the war. He referred to the
fact that after the Doctor moved to Boston,
thatihe, the speaker, was his secretary in one
of the most important departments Of his
work, and he thus became closely associated
with him, and realized the strength and i'm
portance of his character
Mr.. Prentiss Manning and Judge Bonney
were appointed by the church to attend DR..
Bosworth's funeral.

PETERSBCRG.
Hastings Court PFOceedings-Pe
sOnaI ana NewsNOIes.


Correspondence Of the Richmond Dispatch.l
PETERSBURG, January 20, 1888.
In the Hastings Court to-day the
grand jury found two indictments against
Mr.. James f. Justice for running a
game of chance called "the miniature
race.course" Hon. John S. Wise Is
counsel for Mr.. Justice, and it is under
stood that when the case comes up for
trial next week the "race course, which
has for some time been held in the Gus
tody of the High Constable, will be
brought into the courtroom and ope-
rated for the edIfiCation of the court and
Jury to enable them to decide whether or
not it comes under the law prohibiting
gambling.
Instead of bringing in a presentment
against the city the grand jury to-day
submitted to the court paper calling
the attention of the proper authorities
to the bad condition OF the streets,
street-crossings, &C.. and also TO the
condition Of the track of the street rail
way in many places, which is so much
washed and worn between the rails as
TO prevent the crossing Of vehicles. The
Common Council will, OF course, take
the hint.
Among the latest additions to the Bar
of Virginia is Congressman James
u. Brady. The Colonel has OF late been
living quietly at his home on High
street, but it is learned that he recently
went before three OF the Supreme Court
judges and passed a highly successful
examination.
On nit. that a prominent and popular
citizen of one of the neighboring coun-
ties-well known all over the State--is
to be married early in the coming month
to lovely young lady-resident Of an
adjacent State. Among the many
friends Of the gentleman the report has
excited great deal of interest.
AS showing the increasing popularity
of the electric light here some seven or
eight drugstores are now using it exclu-
siyely. In fact the demand exceeds the
ability of the company to supply the
light.
Freights to and from the northern cities
continue heavy. The usual January dull
ness with the railroads is conspicuous
by its absence" it is conceded that the
general trade of our city up to date ex-
ceeds by double that Of any previous
January.
1t was hoped that Frederick Warde.
who is very popularin Petersburg, would
give US one night OF tragedy, but tit seems
he is to give our new theatre the "go by"
on this campaign.
The tobacco receipts continue light.
The roads are so bad that the farmers
cannot haul it to market. Most OF the
weed now coming in arrives by railroad
