1925 Street Northwest.
Results still prove that DIR. French's Treat
ment is pre-eminent in the cure Of disease.
, unere Is probably no power given to man so
little understood as the magnetic power to cure
disease cases Of years standing. People who
have tried all sorts Of doctors and remedies and
fail to find any relief are restored to health in
few short weeks. During the time that Dr.
French has been in Washington he has pub
iished many cases Of cures performed here and

mese cures lasting, and we answer Yes, most de-
cldedly, and in proof we submit the following
testimonials Of patients cured years ago and
who now remain well, and they will testify to
the fact at any time.

BRICK WORKS DESTROYED.

At o'clock this morning the alarm Of the
fourth ward was given on the town bells for a
fire at the Capital brick works, owned by Agnew
& Harlow, on Hunting creek at the north end
of Washington street. The flames had caught
to the woodwork of the drying house and by
the time the fremen reached the place all the
woodwork OF the place was in flames and the
fire, famed by brisk wind from the creek,
not only made a great furnace in the hollow,
but climbed the hill and set fire to shed on top
that the destruction was complete. The fire.
men by playing upon the machinery saved that
in some degree from warping under the ex-
cessive heat. The yards were opened some
ten years ago and were afterward sold out to
NJ. b. Harlow and Park Agnew, who have Of
late been doing quite successful business

to the committee on streets. The ordinance
was discussed until II pm. and then laid over
