DANGEROUS PRACTICE.

A form of litigation is in vogue in the
District which might, under certain con-
ditions, give rise to vexatious complica-
tions and cause great expense. In suits
brought against the District the individual
Commissioners are made the defendants and
not the corporate body. Instead of cause
being entered against the District OF Co
lumbia, it is John W. Ross, George Truesdell
and Charles L. Powell that are called upon
to make answer.
1t is in contravention of the organic law.
The act creat ting the present form OF
government for the District provides that
the Commissioners, being the responsible
power, shall be sued in the name of the
District. An experienced court OFFICER
calls attention to the fact that deviation
from this rule may cause the trouble
above referred to. If any one of the Com
missioners were to die, or retire from
office pending such suit, proceedings
would have TO be begun de novo.
1t will be seen that through this disregard
of the organic act not only the District,
but those bringing ii into court, might
suffer great annoyance, delay and uIl-
necessary expense. and that the practice
ought to be discontinued. 1t has even been
suggested that it might be we'll to ask
Congress for specific additional legis.a-
tion IL n cure cannot be effected In any
other way.

ranging from so to $50 wards. The first
stroke and ali the succeeding strokes. after
holes are made. are executed with the ball
placed on little structures of clay which the
caddics manufacture in n instant.
The shots up hill are usually made with
the iron-tipped clubs which CAN be used
with as much scientific skill as il one were
playing billiards on q giga ntic scale. Some
of the poses I'm the act of the first stroke are
standpoints. The maneuyering to get the
ball into the hole on the putting grounds
or greens is Just little suggestive Of the
boyish pastiine of f"knucks-"

WHICH SHALL BE? ~-.---

Before the Fifty-fourth Congress passes
into history, 1t will have been discovered
that Grover Cievela nd is either the shrewdest
politician known to modern politics, OF
is the destroyer of a country, as well as
being q party wrecker. His message on
the Venezuelan controversy can bring but
two results-a declaration of war against
England by Congress, OF a complete back
down by that body from its present war
like attitude. Should 1t be war, the name
of Benedict Arnold will be mentioned with
pride by Americans, compared to the man
per to which that of our President will be
referred. But II Congress fails to back
up its Quixotic bravado, Mr.. Cleveland
will be regarded as public idol.

without troubling herself about the out

mission OF Inquiry. Should the report be
favorable to England, no harm will have
been done. II, on the contrary, it is un-
fav orable, then Congress must either dis
possess England and restore the seized
territory to Venezuela, or crawfish out
OF the dilemma. As the controversy stands
since President Cleveland has referred II
to Congress. that body must either fight
or run. There IL no alternative.

Physicians Powerlcss-Tho Story Told By
the ChEld's Mother.
TFrom the Reporter, Somerset. XVI

TFrom the Reporter, Somerset, XVI
Among the foot hills Of the Cumberlan d
Mountains, near the town OF Flat Rock Is
the happy home of James McPherrou
Four months ago the daughter of the fam
fly, a happy girl of sixteen, was stricken
with St. Vitus' dance. The leading physi-
clans were consulted but without avail. She
grew pale and thin under the terrible nerv-
Gus strain and was fast losing her mental
powers. In fact the Thought OF placing her
in an asylum was seriously considered. Her
case has been 30 widely talked about that
the report of her cure was like undermining
miracle of old. To reporter who visited
the home the mother said:
"Yes, the reports of my daughters sick
ness and cure are true as you hear them.
Her affliction grew into st. Vitus' dance
from an aggravated form of weakness and
nervous trouble peculiar to her sex. Every
source of help was followed to the end, but
it seemed that physicians and medicine wero
powerless. Day by day she grew worse uu-
til we despaired of her life. At times she al
most went into commissions. She got so that
we had to watch her to keep her from wan
dering away and you can imagine the care
she was.
"About the time when our misery was
greatest and all hope had fed, ! read OF
another case, almost similar, that had been
cured by a medicine known as DR.. Williams
Pink Pills Almostin desperation secured
some of the pills and from that day on the
wonderful work of restoration commenced;
the nervousness left, her cheeks grew bright
with the color of health, she gained flesh
and grew strong both mentally and physi-
cally until to-day she is the very picture Of
good health and happiness.
at is no wonder that speak In glowing
terms of Pink Pills to every ailing personI
meet. They saved my daughters life and I
am grateful"
The foregoing is but one of many wonder
full cures that have been credited to DIR.
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People. In
many cases the reported cures have been
Investigated by the leading newspapers and
verified in every possible manner. Their
fame has spread to the far ends OF ctviliZa-
ton and there is hardly drug store in this
country or abroad where they cannot be
found.
DIR. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People
are now given to the public as an unfailing
blood builder and nerve restorer, curing all
forms of weakness arising from watery
condition of the blood or shattered nerves.
The pills are sold by all dealers, or will bd
sent post paid on receipt of price $50 cents a
box, or six boxes for S2.50-they are never
sold in bulk or by the 100) by addressing DR.!
