GENEROUS OFFER.
David Lubin, of Weinstock, Lubin & Co.,
the firm whose enterprise and liherality
have provided such a grand treat to fair
visitors, still further surprised the people
last night by making the following PROPOSE
ton to President Luhrs of the City and
County Improvement Association:
Mr.. Lub;n proposes giving all the ac-
cessories to the games within the play
ground to the public, provided the State
Society will pay one half the expense of
roofing it and constructing the walls, the
citizens to pay the other half If this
proposition is accepted, Messrs. Weinstock,
Lubin & Co. will give $1,000 in cash lin
addition to the property referred to) toward
the citizens half of the expense. This offer
is made on condition that the place be kept
open every day in the week, and to be free
to all. In order to meet the expense of
servant-hire, tournaments shall be given
periodically, at which an admission fee
shall be charged.
This proposition was fully discussed last
night by citizens, and all seemed to favor
it heartily. 1t is estimated that the total
expense would not exceed 81 600.

property of the National Government. and that
the otfense committed thereon is triable only BY
! the United States Courts.
Inc United States Constitution provides and
the supreme Court has decided that the exclu-
sive jurisdiction 10 try criminal offenses COM
m1tted upon the territory of the United States is
vested In the Federal Courts, The property in
question is the property of the United States of
America, and any person committing criminal
ofense thereon can only be tried by the United
States Courts. The remedy is quite as adequate
as that afforded by the State Courts since a
Federal statute provides that any violation of q
State penal law committed upon United States
property within Sta.e may be punished by the
United States Courts
Concluding that the right to examine the of
tense in question is exclusively vested in the
United States tribunals, the defendant is dis
charged for want of jurisdiction.
THE GAMES START UP.
The scene in and about the pool-selling
headquarters on the Government property
at Seventh and K streets last night was q
lively one. The tent where the pools were
being sold was literally iammed with men,
and betting went on at rattling rate. A
RECORD UNION reporter, who visited the
scene, expected to see dozen or more
gambling games running, but not one was
to be found when he first entered the tent
After an hours time, however, wheel of
fortune started business in one corner of
the tent, and then the rattle of the dice
and money at ''chuck, a-luck" table could
be heard. Officer Stafford was present, but,
of course, did not dare to interfere, but
simply stood in the doorway to see that no
disturbances were created Under the de-
cision in the Police Court, however, it is
clear that he would have no right to inter
fere, no matter how many disturbances
took place nor how serious their character.
Chief Lee gave orders last night to his
officers to arrest any person found violating
the gaming law anywhere in the city, ex-
cep;ing on the Government property at
Seventh and K streets.

CINCINNATI, ONO, Aug. l8.-John L.
Sullivan arrived tonight nearly an hour
late on a train due at GAO p. M. on the
Queen and Crescent route. He was met
by John Sullivan of this city and as soon
as the two left the train they became
the head of a rapidly spreading
and encircIing procession Of train men
and others, who had got within
the train Enclosure. Outside this
Enclosure the space was packed and it
was vito great difficulty the pugilistic
hero and his escort made their way into
the waiting room and out to a carriage.
The enthusiastic crowd cheered Sullivan
frequently, but he gave no sign Of recog-
milton of the alteration of his admirers,
but walked straight on under his yellow
stray hat like a soldier IN review. He
was driven rapidly to a hotel, with bows
running and yelling after the carriage.
He soon left for the Pennsylvania depot,
where he arrived just IN time to take the
train for New York. He had not much
time to talk and said but little to the re-
pOTteTs who tried to interview him.

Her neck was so wrenched that she was
unable to turn her head. The struggle
must have lasted several minutes. The
floor and furniture were covered with
blood and the girl hands were bloody
where she fought her assailant. Her
cries attracted a colored man who was
near by and who rescued her
Asburg sprang through the door and es-
capped, but in the next house he knocked
down woman and seized double bar
relied shotgun and fed to the woods. In

Medical discoveries are just now the

While DR.. Brown-Sequard' plan to
prolong life is creating such a sensation. a
Cincinnati physician has one which

able to thousands of sufferers.
Only those who have been afflicted can
tell the agonies of a rheumatic attack,
and especially one of long standing.

himself a victim for six years Of the
dread disease, has
PRoBED THE MYSTERIES SURROUNDING
its cause The doctor has been a great
student Of the microscope, and many Of
the results of his researches have met
with the most hearty Endorsement by his
professional brethren and have proved
invaluable to them.
During all the long weeks he was
sufferer be was continually at work TO
ascertain something that would aid him
in relieving himself.
One day last January, when he was
experiencing unusual pain in one Of his
ankles, which was considerably swollen,
he inserted q hYpodermic syringe into
the aching member and removed liquid
This, under q microscope, to his surprise
proved to be full of minute creatures,
baciIIi.
They looked like very tiny pieces Of
thread. Further investigation showed
that these bacilh existed at all points
where the rheumatism held forth.
81 had always suspected, - said the
doctor, ga germ of some nature was the
ROOT OF THE EVIL,
but could not determine whether the in
fiammatorv process was produced by
crystal, fungus or a bacillus, but ali
these examinations ConclusivelY showed
that il was a bacillus.
What gives rise to these bacilli?''
''Their breeding places are in decayiug
vegetation. Young plants in a room are
propagators, and they will come from
any place where matters are undergoing
decay. The spores from such are carried
into the atmosphere by the evaporatiug
of moisture-say the water that is
spriukled on plants-and thence passes
into the lungs. The healthy action of
kidneys are first destroyed by their pres
enCe in the blood thereby preventing
the proper elimination of the constituents
of the urine, and, consequently, causing
their accumulation in the system. As the
KIDNEYS CANNOT RELIEVE
the gathering of the salts, the skin takes
mp the waste and the profuse acid sweats
constitute one OF the characteristic phe-
nOmena of acute rheumatism. 1 had
always had a great many plants in my
house. and after my researches l re-
moved them and took medicine to destroy
the bacilH. I have not had pain

pied by people, very much. Since Janu-
airy l have kept up my inquiries, and
Of the many patients I have examined l
traced the start Of their disease to all

it is the only cause, and that the baciIi
