Der that his services were needed at house No.

tempted suicide.
When the doctor reached the house he found
big, fat woman called Barbara who was
nearly dead from the effects of an ounce of
chloroform that she had taken in an effort to
end her existence.
The other women in the house were doing all
In their power to relieve her, and had been
walking and beating her to keep her alive.
Antidotes were administered and after three
or four hours the woman was all right. This
morning she complained of feeling badly and
said she would never do SO again. This was her

Remarkable Cure of Catarrh and
Asthma.
FROM THE REV. JACOB D. WILSON,
PASTOR OF
INDEPENDENT METHODIST CHURCH,
WARRINGTON, D. G.
To THE PUBLIC.

To THE PUBLIC.
During my service in our late war I con-
tracted catarrh in my head and throat which
later on developed into asthma in its most Sc
rlous form. When the paroxysms were upon
me the distressing cough and ceaseless gasping
for breath, nearly amounting to suffOcation
caused the greatest of suffering almost too
much to bear. Sleep at such times was impos-
slble. and the slightest exertion greatly ag-
gravated these distressing symptoms. In spite
OF all my efforts for relief, both asthma and
catarrh continued and even increased in Sc
verify, until, by advice of friends, applied to
DR.. Lighthill Of this city. His careful and
thorough examination and investigation of my
case inspired me with confidence. and placed
myself under his care, and within three months
time he effected a complete cure of the catarrh
as well as OF asthma. My cough is gone, l can
breathe as freely as any one, sleep soundly and
feel perfectly we'll. This great success in nv
case seems almost miracle. In addition to
the above, would also mention that am short
Of stature and weighed over two hundred pounds,
with tendency toward apoplexy. To avoid
the danger from that cause. Dr. Lighthill de-
cided to reduce my weight, and during the
above period reduction of over thirty pounds
was effected, to my great delight and comfort.
cannot praise DR.. Lighthill too highly for his
careful attention and skillful treatment of nv
case.
With profound gratitude to the Almighty and
with prayers for blessings upon DIR. Lighthill
l make this public statement, hoping that SINH
lar sufferers will profit by it. would be pleased
to see any one interested desiring further in
formation. JACOB ID. WILSON,

THE COMING RACE MEETING.

What President Draney Says of the Encour-
aging Prospects.
The applications for stabling room at Ben
ming during the coming race meeting continue
to pour in, and the club has found it necessary
to add even more stable accommodation than
the new twenty-four- stall stable which has been
mentioned in The STAR.
I'VE have already arranged to accommodate
$50 horses" said President Draney to a STAR
reporter today. Through the kind permits
sion of the Ivy City Association the overflow of
horses will be stabbed at their grounds Every
mail brings applications for additional stable
room, and at the lowest estimate there will be
400 horses here when the meeting begins.
"An encouraging sign for the racing pros
poets of Washington is the fact that both the
Dwyer Bros. and Green b. Morris will have
racers here this year. Mr.. H. d. Mcintyre,
secretary of the Brooklyn Jockey Club and q
former Washingtonian, was here lately and as
sured me that both Mr.. Morris and the Dryer
Bros. would send several OF their horses to
race, and would besides be present in person.
Mr.. Mcintyre further said that it was gencr-
ally conceded in and around New York among
racing men that Washington would experience
the most successful meeting ever held in the
District of Columbia.
.Oh, yes. the presiding officers have been
chosen. Mr.. Clarence Mcdowell of Baltimore
will act as presiding judge. Mr.. Mcdowell
possesses the confidence of owners as well as
the public, and his decisions, therefore, give
universal satisfaction. Jimmy Rowe will hold
the flag, which insures fair start at the post.
"Mr. Ditmus of New York has the pool privi-
lege and there will probably be from twenty
five to thirty bookmakers, with the usual
French mutual system. The many improve
ments which the club has made at the grounds
will, am sure, be appreciated by the public"

A DRUG CLERKS SUICIDE.

Fires . Bullet Into His Head and Dies
Shortly Afterward.
piece Of crepe on the door of house No. S06
New Hampshire avenue was placed there this
morning after the sudden and unexpected
death Of Mr.. John s. Goldsmith, who resided
there.
His death was due to violence at his own
hand, and the wound was inflicted by bullet.
The report Of pistol was heard by the men,
beers of the family, and when the room of the
unfortunate man was reached it was discovered
that he had fired the fatal shot and the bullet
had entered his head. 1t was then about
o'clock and Goldsmith was found in
bed with the smoking revolver near him.
He was not dead and DR.. Gardner
was sent for to do what he could, but the wound
was a necessarily fatal one and the physician
efforts were Of no avail, for the victim died
about $50 o'clock. The deceased was about
thirty years old and was unmarried. He was a
drug clerk. Friends of the dead man think
that he was suffering a temporary alteration
of mind, brought on by ill health and the use
of morphine to subdue pain. Coroner Patter-
son viewed the body and gave a certificate of
death in accordance with the facts.
