BEAUTIFUL THROUGHOUT.
A Rich and Charming Display for
Christmas.

Christmas.
A really beautiful display of goods for
Christmas gifts, charming and elegant, in
Guiding host of lovely articles both use
full and aesthetic, is that on view at Mars
den G. Perry's, 1856 Chapel street. All is
new, select and tasteful and an epitome
ious and beautiful designs for the holidays
of 80. From the costly to the inexpen-
sive, all is rare, novel and artistic. It is a
beautiful array, and the window display
which is surprisingly fine, is only fair
index of the countless select, exclusive and
rich novelties within.

ASTONISHING RESTOHSATlON.
Lady Almost Insane From stomach
and Heart Trouble Is Brought
From Camden and Cured by DIR.
Damon. q
Truth is indeed stranger than fiction, as
the following letter from q we'll known and
highly respected lady living at Camden, N.
j., who, after trying all the best medical
talent in her own city as well as that of
Philadelphia, was brought here and re-
stored to health by that greatest of all liv
ing Vitapathic specialists, DR.. Damon. She
says: "For years 1 have been great suf-
ferer from heart disease, dyspepsia and
gastritis, and for two years I have not
been able to eat any solid food, especially
meat, of any kind. The distress was
something fearful to contemplate. I grew
very weak, and at last complete nervous
prostration took full possession of me. I
could not bear even the slightest noise.
Soon my brain became affected and it was
said among my friends as well as byphysi-
clans that I would soon become hopelessly
insane Everything was done for me by
our home physicians, but nothing seemed
to give relief. I could not sleep nights,
and in my rational moments prayed to
God that I might die. The suffering was
greater than I could bear. At last heard
of the many wonderful cures of DR.. Da-
man. My friends advised me to try once
more, and if that failed to give up all doc
tors Willing hands assisted me to get
ready, and I was brought to him here. I
Immediately placed myself under the
treatment that has made DR.. Damon
so famous all over the world. The first
| treatment did not seem to benefit me very
| much, but I was 80 low I did not
expect much relief, if any, SO soon.
In few days, however, Ibegan to get bet
| ter Soon 1 could eat food and retain it
| without distress. My nervous conditions
left me, my head became clear, there was
| no pain OF distress and could sleep the
sleep of the blessed. 1 gradually grew
| stronger until now am able to return to
| my home a well woman, and I feel that
cannot thank God or DR.. Damon enough
| for thus saving me from a living death
| an insane asylum. I wish I could impress
| upon every woman in the land the feeling
of gratitude which prompts me to write
| this letter To my friends and neighbors in
Camden, where 1 have lived over 90 years,
| it is not necessary to make any statement;
| they are already familiar with my suffer
| ings and can fully appreciate my present
| feelings. But in order that strangers may
know of my remarkable experience, and
| because deem it an obligation I owe to
mankind, l have written this letter. In
my opinion there is but one physician ca
| pable of giving such grand results, and his
name is DR.. S. J. Damon. hope no suf-
| fering mortal will give up hope until they
| have consulted this specialist l would be
pleased to answer any letters regarding my

IT Is easy to misapprehend the relig.
ious and political situation in Wisconsin.
1t is easy to show how the Bible in the
schools is not disagreeable to those re-
llgions which have the Bible for their
foundation. But In Wisconsin there are
many classes of people who have diff
ferent foundation for their religious be.
lief, and many people who have no
foundation whatever and no religion.
Wisconsin contains large proportion
Of foreign population There is very
small proportion Of Anglo-Saxon civili-
zation or religion and still smaller pro-
portion Of Anglo Saxon population. In
many towns there is scarcely family
which speaks English in many schools
foreign language is used exclusively.
Since there is nothing in the constitution
Of the United States to require ths
teaching Of the Bible in the schools at
tended mainly by those who for reasons
good and satisfactory TO themselves do
not wish to be taught the Bible, then
there is nc warrant. no law, and no rea-
son for forcing the Bible upon them.
There are eseyeral versions Of the Bible, and
under the constitution of the United
States the Roman Catholics have as much
right to prefer the Douay version as any
one else has TO the King James version.
Then there are some who reject the Bible
altogether. In Wisconsin the latter class
Is very numerous and aggressive Its
members do not demand that their unbe
lief shall be forced on others,
but they demand that nobody belief, no
matter how beautiful and good TO
him who likes 1t, shall be forced upon
them. The Roman Catholics and the
Lutherans make the same demand for
themselves. or course, on this question
SIS on almost all others, the Democratic
party is found on the side Of the people
and the Republican party on the side
Of small, but powerful and
rich class Of the people The one wishes
to enforce the views and the religion Of
the class, the other proposes to protect
the rights Of the people. The one wishes
to choose religion for the people, the
other proposes to protect the people In
any religious belief or unbelief they may
possess or adopt.

SENATOR BLACKBURN the wicked Ken
tuckian at whom Secretary Blaine winked
has come forward to confirm the story
that the Secretary denounced the McKin.
ley bill. AS has often happened before
it is question Of veracitY between
Mr.. Blaine who made the speech and
the reporter who heard It. In this case
the speech was made in the presence Of
the Senators, in the committee room, Of
whom Senator Blackburn was one. Sena.
tor Blackburn says.
never heard a more earnest and en-
phathic denunciation of a measure than
that Of Mr. Blaine on the Mckinley bill
he tore it to tstters, and warned the
Republican members of the committee
that If they passed the bin in It's present
shape the Democrats would sweep the
country In 1892. So earnest and viaor.
GUS was Mr.. Blaine that he brought his
silk hat down on the table with crushing
force, to considerable damage to the hat
This Blaine episodeis another indica-
tion that the Republicans are ratified

hundred millions have been scent In pen
sions, the soldiers should be "belped some
more. General Grant was of the opinion
that an annual disbursement of twenty
seven millions would meet the just needs
Of the real soldiers. General Garfield
reluctantly and unwillingly granted
them thirty-eight millions. These SOL
diers and honorable men rea-
soned, evidently. that there was much
patriotism and some glory in going to
war; that duty done counted for its value
and that pensions belonged only to
those who needed them. But
those sentiments do not prevail in
Washington now. The pension sharks
have their innings and they are playing
into the hands of those who wish TO re-
tain the high tariff One set creates the
surplus, the other set provides schemes
for spending it. One set makes money
by gathering the surplus, the other set
makes money by scattering it. The peo-
pie pay the costs Of all the
frauds, and the thieving practiced
by both from mistaken sympathy
for the soldier or for the workingman.
The soldier does not need the pension,
it is not contended that he does, the
workingman does not get the wages, no
body believes he could get 1t.

other victory for the Georgetowners
The score was 10 to 5. Because OF the
excessive heat the game did not.
begin until about o'clock, and from
that time until near o'clock large
crowd Of people watched the game with
unabated interest. Horsey Of Laurel and
Hill Of Redden umpired the game Per-
haps the Laurel club would have played
better, had the members not quarreled
SO much.
"Who win be appointei to the Judge
ship?' is the question now being eagerly
discussed in town. Popular opinion
seems to be equally divided between
Charles NJ. Cullen and A. p. Robinson,
men both wellknown and well liked in
Georgetown. They are both competent,

would be acceptable to the people, and an

Club Batted Poorly.

Club Batted Poorly
New Haven defeated Wilmington yes
terday. The home club showed It's lack
of head work. and the need of an efficient
captain. Four times was the opportunity
given to score and four times was fatal
error made.
The visitors had their first trial a.
Wehrle and he made poor showing
comparatively. He was better supported
than was Anderson on Wednesday, but
twelve hits, total, 10, were made off Of
him. Umpire Valentine was Rank with a
big r. In the first inning Coogan was
on the bases, and one man out. Lynch
made splendid hit over third base and
the ball struck three feet on the inside of
the foul line. Coogan WAS making FOR
home, when Umpire Valentine called foul
ball. 1t was not a close decision it was
wrong. He was away of on balls and
strikes.
Wilmin yton played good game in the
field, but could not hit the ball safe. The
four runs In the sixth inning were made
on errors by New Haven, which became
ratified. Lynch made a two-base hit,
went to third on a passed ball, and by
amateur playing was put out at third.
Carl struck out, Corcoran went to first on
the play to put out Lynch. Galligan
reached first on Lang's tumble. Then
Newell made base hit into centre field,
and Corcoran scored. Galligan was com
ing in. Lally fumbled the ball and Nc
Kee threw It home. Hofford muffed
at the plate and Galligan was
safe. Pitcher Galliland found the ball
and threw to third to stop Newell who
was drawing near Newell made great
slide, but it was not necessary, for the
ball went high above Doyle's head
Newell got out of the dust and scored
Sullivan, Wehrle and Keay went to first
on balls. Sullivan went TO second and
third on Hofford's wild throw and scored
on Lally's throw. Coogan stopped the
fun by striking out. In the last inning
Wilmington had a chance to score but
did not accept it. The score
