WHERE YOU CAN SEE 1T.

The peculiar invention of the Perfection
Heat and Light Company, by which heaters
and cooking ranges may be equipped with
an appliance that ia economical, safe, and
cony enient-all in the same agreeable com
bination-has now sprung into active opera
tion, and is being used with tho most un
qualified satisfaction. This is the result Of
practical demonstration of well. grounded
scientific principles and their application to
the necessities Of every day life. There Is
nothing absurd or inflated In this, and what
doubt, If any, has existed in the minds Of
those who have heard and read so much Of
late respecting the claims made by the Per.
fection Heat and Light Company must and
does readily yield to the realization OF all
that has been enthusiastically predicted
The company, at its works, No. AL q street
northwest, Is rushed with orders from pri e
vate parties who desire the application made
to their stoves, and those interested can see
how valuable and sensible an invention 1t is
by inspecting its application at any OF the
following places: Mr.. Henry Wex, 4i3

Of Interest to Cotton Planters.

INnshlnBl0N UFIVN, JAN, ", T6oH,I
Considerable interest has been awakened
IN the wonderful machine known AS the
"Crawford Cotton Seed Cleauer,n and
planters who have seen its workings are
enthusiastic in its praise. Meanwhile the
stock is being rapidly taken.
An opportunity to see the machine In
practical operation will be given to NOR

In it) are cordially invited to be present.

to see the machine at work In this city a
very large attendance may be expected.

Closing Up Business Preparatory to

Retiring From Office.
The jurors In the criminal court have been
respited until next Tuesday, and 1t is highly
probable that District Attorney Worthiug-
ton has prosecuted his last case In that
court. II was at his request that Justice
Montgomery yesterday excused the panels,
Mr.. Worthiugton stating that he desired
the few days remaining OF his time to get
his papers in shape and the Office in condi
tion for his successor to take hold aud get
right down to work.
When the present Incumbent accepted
the position his practice had not extended
outside OF civil cases, and his face had not
been seen among the practitioners before
the criminal court.
During his term of Office he has conducted
some heavy prosecutions, and has succeeded
In building up for himself an envlabe repu
tation as fair, impartial, and conscientious
attorney. He has proven an uncompromis
ing foe to crime, and will retire from the
position, having faithfully discharged the
trust reposed In him, leaving a record that
will compare favorably with that OF any of
bis predecessors and highly commendable
to himself.
For the last four years the pressure has
been very heavy In the district attorneys

this fact District Attorney Worthiugton has
pushed forward with determination aud

succeeded In keeping the business OF the

will have the satisfaction Of knowing that
he leaves the Office In much better shape
than when entrusted to his management.
Who his successor will be is not yet
known. Several names have been men.

During bis predecesor's administration aud

Little attention has been given to politics
What was desired was able and efficient
men, and these were secured. AS they
were residents Of the District, and disbarrei
from exercising the right of suffrage, &c did
not matter much what was their political
faith, This fact Is mentioned to show the
difference between the rule OF the two
parties. On the opposite side OF the building,
where Democratic marshal reigus supreme,
with but few exceptions, all the Repubi
cans have disappeared, and followers of the
true and faithful Democracy have been
substituted In their places, thus clriying
out the old Jacksonian doctrine, to the
victor belongs the spoils.

THE NATIONAL MUSEUM
Changes Made That Greatly Improve
the Appearance of Things.


For several days a large force of men have
been engaged in arranging the exhibits in
the north hall Of the national museum, so
as to secure homogenity OF the several de-
partments. The result is great Improve.
ment in the appearance of the hall, and
renders a tour through the museum far
more instructive. Several additions have
also been made to the department Of
graphic art. A large Etruscan tomb has
recently been added to the exhibits. 1t Is
about Elk feet high and twelve feet long.
The ''zoon attachment has secured u
gratifying concession in rates from the
United States Express Company. Hereto
fore the company has charged three or four
times the rate on merchandise for carrying
the dangerous and untuly animals, who,
when behind strong bars, delight the public,
The company has agreed, however, to trans
port them at the same rate as ordinary mer
chandise, and as a consequence the 1900
will shortly receive several line attractions.

TELIE DOE CHANGES HANDS.
She is Added TO w. Ii. JennlnGs's
String of Racers.

Washington's favorite racer, Tclic Doe,
was on Monday sold by her owner, Mr..
Burch, to w. B. Jennings the well-know
turfman, who has made himself famous on
the Ivy City race track as the owner of such
thoroughbreds as Frank Ward, Boaz, &c.
The consideration given by Mr.. Jennings
for the grand looking mare was two uu.
named 2year olds, 3yeir old, AMI a con-
siderable amount of Uncle s .m's golden
coin. The precise amount OF cash paid
could not be ascertained, but 1t may be put
down as considerable. 1elie Doe Is one OF
the most attractive Of racers, and has won
number Of sensational contests. She is
by Great Tom Nina Turner, and 1t is safe
to say that In passing into the hands of Mr..
Jennings he rwell known abilities as per
former on the turf will be greatly enhanced,
II such thing is possible after coming
from the stable OF that painstaking turf
man, W. L, Burch,
