Worthy of Confidence.

All the testimonials pubiishedi in behalf of
Hoods Sarsaparilla may be as implicitly
relied upon as though they were written by
your most trusted neighbor.
1t has often been said, and it is perfectly
true, that the testimonials telling of cures
by Holds SarsaparIla are not purchased,
nor are they written up in our office, nor are
they from our employees. They are from pco-
pie who have actually been cured and who
write not only voluntarily. but gladly and
gratefully, because they have been relieved
from suffering and cured.
Hoods Sarsaparilla does not perform mir
acles. 1t acts according to natural laws in
,elfecting cures. 1t is the great blood purifier,
and it is because it purifes the blood that it
is capable of curing SO many different forms
of disease.
With the blood loaded with impurities or
circulating through the body when impover-
ished or robbed of its life giving qua lities,
there can be no such thing as good health.
Hoods Sarsaparilla gives vitality, richness
and pureness to the blood and thus en- ables
it to supply every nerve, organ and tissue OF
the body with the qualities upon which
health and vigor depend.

A m1sAppKEHNs1oN.

''The State Agricultural College has been
advertising this summer. quit. ostentacious-
ly, that pupils are admitted absolutely free.
Not little quiet criticism has been indulged
Mt rival institutions which have imposed and
collected fec, called incidental. 1t turns
out now that the Agricultural College is
doing the same thing on quite liberal scale,
only there is another n. me for it. viz:
breakage fee-$3 general and $3 in the chem
ical department. The query with some of
the patrons is why these facts were not pub
li.hed with the other advertising matter"
The foregoing is taken from the Hillsboro
Independent. Editor Gault has son
attending the college and has evidently been
called upon to ''dig I'D" for the young man.
Mr.. Gault, however, seem. to be laboring
under a misapprchensicn, and to set him
rig hit, as we'll AS others who may not under
stand the matter, the GAzETTE has taken
pains to ascertain for what purpose these
fees are required.
Students taking course in chemistry are
required to deposit 80. OF this sum one
half is for chemicals used in the laboratory,
which are furnished by tine college at cost.
, Probably each student would be allowed to
purchase his chemicals elsewhere, but such
an arrangement would be inconvenient, and
besides, would be far more expensive. The
other half of this deposit is to cover break
age, and at the end of the year ia returnable
less whatever amounts are due at that time
for breaka ge of apparatus. A deposit Of IS
is also required of students having rooms at
Cauthorn Hall. and is to cover breaksge Of
furniture or damage to the building. Ii no
damage results further than ordinary wear
and tear, the entire amount is returnable.
Thus it is seen that the college has not
misled the public through its advertising
matter, as Brother Gault seems to imagine.

DOUGLASS WILL DEFECTIVE.
1t Is Stated the Widow and Heirs Are Try.
ing to Settle Out OF Court


A decidedly interesting discovery was
made yesterday in relation to the Douglass
will. 1t is that the win is not will in
the legal sense of the term. 1t is only
signed by two witnesses.
There are in Anacostia three persons who
know all about the VIII outside of til mem
bers Of the family. Two of these have
signed it. One of them is near resident
to Cedar Hill. The third person is a gen
tleman whom Mr.. Douglass asked to sign
it, but who declined
II was stated yesterday by one Of those
familiar with the facts in Anacostia that
the delay IN offering the VIII for probate
is its defective and Illegal condition. This
further explains, he said, the conference
of the heirs with Mrs Douglass As it
stands, the will is in favor OF Mrs Douglass:
that is, propOTtiOnately II the document
in its stated condition be admitted TO pro-
bate, the present disposition of the estate,
so far as what the VIII particularizes, viii
be final. On the other hand, if the state
ment be true that there are only two wit
nesses instead Of three, he said as the
law absolutely requires, then the estate is
not settled at all, and all the heirs, children
and grandchildren Will be taken care Of by
the court.
The present condition of the case appears
to be that the heirs, cognizaut OF the alleged
defect in the will, are trying to divide the
estate on some other basis.

CENTRAL UNION MISSION.
Report of Secretary Robbins, Showing Re
ceiDtS from, VariOiIS Sources

Report or secretary RObDInS, showing he
ceipts from Various Sources.
At meeting of the board of directors Of
the Central Union Mission held yesterday
afternoon Secretary Robbins submitted
his annual report for the fiscal year end
ing February 2S, 1895.
The report contained three statements
of the finances of the mission The first
shows that prior to January, 1895, the
amount received at the mission was
81 ,591 81; the second, that from January
until the end of the fiscal year the amount
received was $2,675. SO; and the third.
that the amount OF S3, 1888 was received
from the central relief committee.
From this ii will be seen that the receipts
of the mission proper exceeded the amount
received from the central committee by
81 ,233.S .S3.
1t will be noticed that the report ac-
knowledges only So, 033 received from
the central committee. According TO the
